Chapter 50: Settling in the North



In the evening, the sun sets in the west, and the afterglow shines on the earth, creating a warm and peaceful atmosphere.

Feng Cailan and Yu Jingyang were sitting in the carriage, both looking a little tired.

Along the way, Feng Cailan remained silent, and the face of Lianxing's daughter, which was very similar to Feng Qiyan's when she was a child, kept appearing in her mind.

Seeing the woman beside him with a blank look in her eyes, as if lost in her own thoughts, Yu Jingyang would occasionally glance at her, then turn his head and look out the window, unsure how to break the silence.

At the end of the You hour, the driver parked the carriage steadily in front of the gate of the General's Mansion in the east of the city.

"Sir, we're here." Yu Jingyang reminded softly.

At this moment, Feng Cailan came back to her senses from her deep thoughts. She looked at the familiar mansion in front of her, and a complex emotion surged in her heart.

"Oh? We're here. Yangbao, be careful when you get off." Feng Cailan came back to her senses and hurriedly and carefully helped Yu Jingyang get off the carriage.

"Sir, you looked worried all along the way. Could it be that something big happened in the court that requires you to go out to fight?" Yu Jingyang suddenly grabbed Feng Cailan's arm and asked nervously.

Feng Cailan helped Yu Jingyangfu down from the carriage, hugged him gently, and said softly: "Yangbao, there are indeed some matters in the army that need to be handled, but it is not a war, don't worry."

Hearing Feng Cailan say this, Yu Jingyang felt a little relieved. However, he keenly noticed that Feng Cailan's eyes were still a little erratic, as if his thoughts had already drifted far away.

Under Yu Jingyang's concerned gaze, Feng Cailan realized her own loss of composure and forced a smile, saying, "I'm fine. It's just that I've been a little tired from the recent busy military affairs."

Yu Jingyang gently patted Feng Cailan's hand and said softly, "Sir, you don't have to work so hard. Just tell me what you need."

Feng Cailan looked at Yu Jingyang gratefully and nodded gently.

However, in the following days, Feng Cailan's mind kept inexplicably appearing the tender little face of Lianxing's daughter, which made her unable to sleep and her face gradually became haggard.

Yu Jingyang, who was silently watching Feng Cailan's changes, was full of worries and doubts.

After several days of struggle, on the tenth day of July, Feng Cailan made up her mind. She planned to go to Lianxing in person to find out about the child's background.

However, Feng Cailan was shocked to find that when she returned to Junyanfang on Chengnan Street, the shop was empty. The man who was always busy inside was also gone.

"General Feng, are you here to buy beauty cream for your husband? Oh, what a pity! The things in this shop are reasonably priced and easy to use, but the owner suddenly closed the shop after she gave birth." A man who came to Junyanfang to see if it had reopened said to Feng Cailan with regret.

Hearing this, Feng Cailan asked anxiously, "Not opening? Then do you know where he took the child?"

The man shook his head slightly. "I don't know the details, but I heard he went north to Yuheng County to look for his wife."

"Wife?" Feng Cailan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard the man's words.

"However, now that he's gone, we men who love beauty will have one less good place to go," the man said regretfully.

"Yes, the beauty cream he made is indeed very popular." Feng Cailan thought of Yu Jingyang applying it every morning and evening, and couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips and nodded.

"I hope he will come back in the future." The man said expectantly.

"Well, maybe." Feng Cailan smiled, turned and left Junyanfang.

It seemed she was overthinking it. Since the family of three had reunited, there was nothing for her to worry about.

After leaving Junyanfang, Feng Cailan swept away the recent gloom and was in a good mood.

At the same time, in a street shop in Taiping County, Yuheng Commandery, Lianxing was busy with Xiaochun while looking after the child.

"Young Master, why do we have to come here to the north when we are living well in the capital? Are you worried about General Feng..." Xiaochun asked in confusion while wiping the counter.

Lian Xing sighed slightly upon hearing this. He also wanted to stay in the capital, but there was no place for them there. Moreover, taking the child away from the Feng family was the best destination for him and the child.

"Xiaochun, I have my own considerations when doing things, so you don't need to say too much."

"Yes, sir."

Hearing what his master said, Xiaochun could only curl his lips slightly and suppress the doubts in his heart.

"Sir, you just gave birth to the baby less than ten days ago, it's not appropriate for you to work so hard. You and the young lady can go into the backyard, and I will take care of this." Xiaochun said with concern as he looked at his master who was getting thinner and thinner.

Lian Xing looked at the baby in the cradle beside her, then looked at the shop, and nodded when she thought of her milk supply which had been decreasing in recent days.

Even if he wasn't afraid of hard work or fatigue, he couldn't ignore his daughter who was still crying for food. He said softly, "Okay, Xiaochun, you clean up first. I'll go to the back and rest for a while."

After saying that, Lian Xing carried the child into the backyard.

Xiaochun sighed inwardly as he watched Lianxing leave. He knew his master had a hard time these days, but he never complained.

After Lian Xing carried the child into the room, she gently placed the child on the bed and then lay down beside him.

Looking at the child's peaceful sleeping face, Lian Xing's heart was filled with tenderness. This was his child! He was the reason he had to fight for him, and the one he would rely on for the rest of his life. Although life was difficult, as long as he had this child by his side, he felt that everything was worth it.
