After the room lights came on, An Shuyi noticed that Lin Wenshan had opened her eyes. She went over and asked, "Wenshan, how are you now? Are you feeling better?"
"Mother? Am I seeing things? How could I see Mother?" Lin Wenshan rubbed his eyes, looking incredulous. Or had he already arrived in the underworld, which was why he could see his mother?
But why can I still see my fourth brother? That doesn't make sense!
"Third Brother, you're not mistaken, it really is Mother!" Wen Shi reminded him from the side.
Actually, not to mention Third Brother, even he himself didn't quite believe when the soldiers told him that a girl named An Shuyi had come looking for him. But for some reason, he had a feeling that the person who came was his mother.
When they went out to check, they saw that face, which resembled their mother's when she was young, and was even more beautiful than their mother had been back then. Their previous thoughts were confirmed.
"Really, Mother? Didn't you leave this world? Why are you back? What happened?" Wen Shan tried to sit up anxiously, but was stopped.
Mother has already left this world. According to what we said, there was no way she could come back. They even buried her body. But now she's back here. Something must have happened.
An Shuyi pressed him down, "Don't get up. Nothing happened. I was accidentally hit on the forehead and woke up here."
"After waking up, I asked the villagers nearby and learned that this was the border area. When they heard that you had an accident, they came here. Luckily, you are alright."
Lin Wenshan was relieved when she heard her say that. "Mother, how did you get hurt? Aunt, and Uncle Xiao, aren't they with you?"
“They were together, but it happened so suddenly that they didn’t notice and I was injured.”
"Can Mother go back?" If only she couldn't go back. Without Mother, I always feel an emptiness in my heart.
"I don't know either, but I have to find a way to go back, otherwise your aunt and Uncle Xiao will be very worried. Besides, I also have family over there."
Lin Wenshi nodded, "Then does Mother have any way to leave here?" She was able to leave last time, so she should be able to this time as well.
"No, there were other factors involved when I left last time, but after that, there were no conditions for me to leave. I don't know if I can leave or not. I just need your aunt and Uncle Xiao to figure it out."
Although I can live anywhere, what's the point without Hua Hua and Xiao Yubai? Sigh, I sigh more in one day than in a whole year.
"Since Mother has no other choice now, why don't you stay here for a while? Maybe Aunt and Uncle Xiao can find a way to let Mother go back."
An Shuyi thought it made sense. "Alright, I'll stay here for a while and wait for them to find a way to get me back. By the way, who's in charge of leading the troops to attack Lin Daniu?"
Lin Wenshi said, "Mother, it's General Chen. He's the general of Jincheng. Besides me and my third brother, he trusts General Chen and General Li the most."
“General Li was trained by my aunt. Although he is not very old, he is capable and loyal. Mother doesn’t need to worry. Yan Zhen originally gave them the military tally, but the two of them didn’t take it.”
The people his mother and aunt brought out, no matter who they were, were not only capable but also loyal. He just didn't expect that the one who rebelled would be Zhu Daniu. Even if it were someone else, his heart wouldn't ache so much.
They entered the camp together, trained together, fought together, and did everything together. When they were about to die, it was their mother and aunt who saved them.
When Zhu Daniu's family fled famine, if it weren't for his mother and aunt, they would have turned to dust long ago. How could they have achieved their current status as a second-rank general? They went from being peasants to second-rank generals. If it weren't for his mother and aunt, they would never have been able to become such a person in their entire lives.
But he was still not satisfied and wanted to rebel. But look at his brain. If it weren't for his third brother's great trust in him and his surrender, a person like him would have died hundreds of times over.
"When will the war start? Take me to see it. I want to ask him myself why he did this." She and Huahua had treated the Lin family well and the Zhu family as their own. How could he rebel?
"Mother, war is too dangerous, so you shouldn't go. I'll send you back to the capital tomorrow, and I'll also let my elder brother and the others go to the capital to see you."
There are frequent battles at the border, and the living conditions are not good. It's really unfair to leave my mother here.
An Shuyi shook her head, "I'll go to the capital later. I need to ask Zhu Daniu what he really wants." Of course, if possible, she wanted to deal with this man herself.
He's lived to this day thanks to her and Hua Hua's kindness, yet he wants to seize her grandson's throne. What's the difference between that and feeding a dog and then taking a bite out of it?
“Mother, Zhu Daniu won’t live much longer, so don’t go. Go to the capital first. I’ll send a message through Flying Eagle to have my brothers come to the capital to see you. Otherwise, we’ll go back whenever we want,” Lin Wenshi said.
“Wen Shi is right, Mother. Zhu Daniu is not important. There are frequent battles here, and it’s mostly men. It’s not appropriate for you to stay here. You should go to the capital first. If you go back in a few days, your brothers will be heartbroken to not see you,” Lin Wenshan said.
If it were the mother from before, that would be fine. After all, she was a woman in her fifties, and although she was beautiful, everyone knew her. But it's different now. Everyone already knows that the mother has passed away, but now someone who looks just like her has appeared.
If she is their mother, how do you explain that? If you say she isn't, say she's a relative, then with a mother as beautiful as her, wouldn't there be several men who want to be their father? It's better to go to the capital.
An Shuyi said helplessly, "Going from here won't take much time. It's not like we're going to fight a war. I'll just ask again after the war is over. Let's leave it at that. Wenshi, I'll go to your tent to rest."
"I arrived here yesterday and didn't get a good night's rest. Now it's dark and I'm sleepy." Not only sleepy, but also tired.
Lin Wenshi slapped his forehead. "I'm sorry, Mother. I was too excited just now and didn't ask anyone to prepare food. I'll go make some now, and you can rest after you eat."
He said he had something to do, but couldn't remember it for a moment. Now that his mother brought it up, he realized that he had no doubt about whether his mother had eaten.
"No need, I've already eaten. Also, don't call me 'mother,' otherwise it will be hard to explain if others hear it. Tomorrow, I'll cover myself with a veil so no one can see what I look like."
She's only twenty-two, but they're already in their forties. It's no wonder people are curious about a young girl calling him "mother."
“If we don’t call you mother, then what should we call you? We won’t call you that in front of others. You are our mother, even if we were in a different body,” Lin Wenshan said.
They are not ungrateful people. Everything they have now is thanks to their mother and aunt. They consider her as their adopted mother, and also as their biological mother.
“Third Brother is right. We won’t call him that in front of outsiders. Let’s set off tomorrow. Mother, get some rest.” Lin Wenshi said.
