Chapter 292 My son has been missing for a long time
After they left, the family sat down and talked again.
"Silang, you have changed a lot." Huo Baohong said.
In the past, he was not so polite to his second uncle, and of course he would not be so polite to ordinary people he met for the first time.
Today, not only were the three flattered in the past, he was also.
Sang Ning turned his head and looked at Huo Changan.
Right?
He has really changed a lot.
Huo Changan smiled at Sang Ning and held her hand under the table.
"When I went to the northern border to look for Li Jun, I was almost discovered by the guards there. I fled to a gambling house, and the owner of the house took me in.
I asked him why?
He said that he would protect all those who opposed the Northern Frontier Commander because he only recognized Huo Zhennan.
There were several other times later when I revealed my identity when I was in danger, and everyone came to my rescue.
There was a woman who, in order to prevent the searchers from discovering my hiding place, was willing to destroy her own reputation and nurse her child in front of the soldiers. Whenever those people went crazy...
There was a man who asked his son to run up the mountain to disrupt the officers’ pursuit…”
Huo Changan spoke slowly in a low voice.
From his narration, everyone also learned about the many dangers at that time and the support that the people of northern Xinjiang had for Huo Zhennan.
"Ning'er, you're right. Hard work always pays off. The people have their own standards."
Sonning secretly shook his hand in response.
"I found Li Jun and confirmed the news that my father had been secretly recalled to the capital. I also brought back the 20,000 soldiers that Li Jun had hidden."
"Brother didn't die in the battle?" Huo Baohong asked in surprise.
"He didn't die in battle, but there's no trace of Dad in the capital, and we're still looking for him..." Huo Changan's voice became even deeper.
He hoped his father was not dead, although he knew the situation was not optimistic.
Huo Changan continued, “On the way back to the northwest from the northern border, I saw all the desolate scenes and the chaos in the world.
A family of seven was forced to commit suicide by power.
An entire village was massacred by bandits.
The scholar is not a scholar, the woodcutter is not a woodcutter, and there are countless wronged souls in the inn.
The sky of Dongyang is completely dark, the people are living in misery, and hundreds of ghosts roam the night..."
Everyone felt so depressed that they couldn't breathe.
It turns out that his changes were due to these.
Huo Changan held Sang Ning's hand tightly, and it took him a long time to let out a long sigh.
“There are many people in the world who have suffered such a tragic fate as the Huo family. It’s just that the Huo family stood high and was seen by others.
The people are suffering, their misery is utterly horrible!
Therefore, I must save them from danger and pierce this dark sky!"
Huo Baohong, Huo Jiangchu, Huo Jingya, and Sang Ning all looked at him warmly, their eyes filled with tears.
"Alright! Let's break the news! Second Uncle is old and doesn't have much talent, but if he can still do something, he will do it with all his might!"
Huo Baohong's much older face exuded infinite heroism, and he wished he could go back to his youth and fight together.
"Break through this dark sky!" Huo Jiangchu, who had been silent and not good at speaking, also shouted.
Huo Jingya: "Break through this dark sky!"
Sang Ning: "Break through this dark sky!"
Huo Changan nodded heavily.
One family, one mind, one goal, working together.
"Second uncle, cousin, I still want to apologize to you."
"Before, I always thought it was normal for you to be implicated when the Marquis' Mansion fell into trouble, after all, your last name is Huo.
When the Marquisate was at its peak, you enjoyed the admiration of others, and when it fell on hard times, you suffered together.
But today I found out that this is not the case.
My second uncle relies on himself in business. Maybe some people come to him because of my father, but that kind of relationship is all about profit. Once the Marquis' Mansion falls, everything will collapse.
Even in this situation, my second uncle was able to contact his former business partners and gave us unreserved support.
It all depends on my second uncle's character, integrity, and our long-standing friendship."
Huo Baohong burst into tears, waving his hands and sobbing:
“That’s not the case. It’s really because of your father’s relationship that I was able to become the richest man smoothly, and no one dared to hinder me.
But Second Uncle is also cautious. He will make a decision only after doing extensive research on the people who want to cooperate with him, for fear of causing trouble for your father.
No more, no more, we are all one Huo, one family, so we naturally share happiness and sin together."
"No more."
Huo Changan poured a glass of wine for Huo Baohong and Huo Jiangchu, and also poured a glass for himself.
"Uncle, we have something else to do later and can't drink much, so I'll just toast you a glass. Thank you very much, Uncle."
"I want to toast my second uncle too." Huo Jingya also poured herself a glass.
"I was ignorant before and scolded my uncle. Uncle, I'm sorry."
When Sang Ning saw this, she realized that she hadn't poured the wine. She thought it would be okay to just pretend, so she immediately wanted to take the wine jug.
But Huo Changan didn't know if he was a prophet, so he took the wine jug away and put it far away.
"Okay, okay." Huo Baohong's tears never stopped.
After finishing his drink, he wiped it with his sleeve and dismissed everyone: "You all go and do your work. I'll have a few more drinks and then rest."
So, Huo Changan and his companions left.
"Brother, are you still alive? You must be alive to see this scene. A family, one heart. This is what you have always hoped for, right?"
"Brother, the children are all fine, very fine..."
Inside the house, Huo Baohong drank and muttered to himself until late at night.
…
The military camp formulated a plan to attack Western Liao and began emergency training.
The slogans of charging forward resounded through the sky every day.
Rehearsals of various formations, parades, and drum changes.
There are also simulation exercises of thunder bombs for elite troops.
Half a month passed quickly.
Ten days before the twelfth lunar month, the army assembled and set out.
When leaving, Mrs. Shao came to see him off.
He gave Shao Qing the amulet he had made himself these days.
"Where's Chen'er?" She looked around but didn't see her son.
"Trying to sneak in again? Pull him out quickly."
"Isn't Chen'er with you at the General's Mansion? He's not in the barracks!"
What?
Not in the general's mansion either!
The couple then realized that their son seemed to have been missing for a long time.
The moment Sang Ning saw Mrs. Shao, an idea flashed through his mind.
Oh! I forgot!
But it’s been half a month and no one has looked for it?
Sang Ning hurried over and told them the delayed news.
The two of them calmed down again, having not yet gotten anxious.
"Then let him fly!" said Mrs. Shao.
Shao Qing: "He's still a fledgling, whether he laughs or not, he's already an old bird who's flown so many times!"
Mrs. Shao: "I wonder if I can come back in half a year?"
Shao Qing: "Probably two years."
It was good enough that he came back after two years. After all, he praised Young Master Huo to the sky.
Last time, a slightly better kid took him away for three months!
His son was born in the year of the pigeon.
It is easy to be abducted by excellent pigeons.
But I always come home.
It's just a matter of time.
Mrs. Shao sighed: "Maybe when I come back, it will be time to get married."
Young Master Huo is so popular that she wants to exchange him for a son!
Sanning: "..."
So confused!
Biological son?
