Huo Xiaocheng became a general
By this time, the brothel was no longer there.
Chunying was also eventually given to him as a concubine in his backyard.
In his dream, he loved Chunying very much and wanted to marry her and have children with her.
And then that was it. The country fell, he died on the city wall, and Chunying went with him.
Huo Xiaocheng woke up with a start, startling Erhei who was next to him.
"I thought you were dead!"
Erhei was nine feet tall, with muscles as thick as a mountain.
"Thank you for saving me, brother. May I ask... cough cough cough"
"Okay, okay, just shut up. You'll just make things worse if you keep talking."
"My name is Erhei, a man from the Yan state who makes a living on the grasslands."
Erhei was taller than most people on the grasslands, and his voice was loud and booming.
Erhei took care of him the whole way and also traveled with the caravan. The caravan said they would provide him with three meals a day so he would be well-fed. Erhei was incredibly strong, and with his size, the rest of the journey was relatively safe.
But after they returned, the caravan refused to take Erhei back, saying they had no other choice.
He can eat the equivalent of five strong men's rations in one meal, and that's with restraint. If he were to eat freely, he could probably eat enough for ten people.
Huo Xiaocheng couldn't possibly bring his savior home when he was stranded.
"Why aren't you going inside? Is this your house?"
Erhei, who was getting impatient waiting behind, asked...
"This is my home, Mother!"
Huo Xiaocheng, dressed in a neat short-sleeved outfit with a black cotton-padded coat over it, stood upright amidst the swirling fallen leaves. As He Yi emerged, his expression softened slightly, a hint of weariness showing through his otherwise hard features. A few strands of hair fell across his face, fluttering gently in the wind, appearing slightly disheveled.
He looks like his mother, but his personality is like his father's.
His almond-shaped eyes were slightly curved, giving him a somewhat feminine appearance. His sword-like eyebrows and sharp features softened the feminine look of his eyes, making him appear to be a young nobleman who had fallen on hard times.
"Mother, I'm home."
The woman removed the fallen leaves from his clothes, looked him up and down, and said...
"It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."
"Hello, Madam He!"
Erhei's sudden shout startled He Yi, and also woke up the little girl inside. The little dumpling thought it was thunder in November. The little girl snuggled into Chunying's arms and pointed outside.
"Go outside and look!"
The girl carried the little bundle into the yard.
"Mother, this is my savior, Erhei."
“Our savior deserves to be treated with courtesy. Please come in.” He Yi stepped aside, and Chun Ying and Huo Xiaocheng made eye contact.
"Cheng'er, have you noticed who's new in the house?"
He Yi pulled the boy into the house, with Erhei following behind.
