Blessed Daughter

Chapter 131 Return Safely

Xu Zhengyong was busy cooking. Although he didn't say any words of praise, his appetite has already explained the problem well.

He was not surprised by Wei Ruo's cooking skills, because he ate more than everyone present.

I think back then he often set fires for Sister Ruoer and Junior Sister Xiumei, and even got punched by Junior Sister Xiumei because he couldn't control the fire properly!

It was at that time that he secretly made up his mind to practice martial arts hard, surpass Xiumei, and let her call him senior brother convincingly in the future, hehe!

After cooking food for Wei Mingting and others, Wei Ruo got up the pot and cooked some dishes for the soldiers and villagers who were digging the tunnel.

Because the amount of food required is large, each big pot is only enough to cook one dish. In order to save time and keep the food hot, the women of each family and Wei Ruo work together, some make radish stew, and some cook Stir-fried vegetables, some people cook, some people make steamed buns.

Wei Ruo made a big pot of radish stew. The pork was given by the villagers. Wei Ruo was reluctant to use it when cooking for them, so he used it here.

Although there is less meat and more radishes, the radishes with meat flavor are equally delicious.

Wei Ruo and Wei Jin also led people to deliver the prepared dishes to the soldiers and common people who dug the tunnel.

At about the same time, women from other families came over with large pots of hot food.

I don't know if it's because I'm tired from work, or because the food is delicious, but everyone eats very deliciously.

Although the eating environment was poor, everyone was very happy. The villagers were grateful to the soldiers, and the soldiers were also moved by the enthusiasm of the villagers.

In this cold, wet and cold small mountain village, there is a warm current that reverberates in the hearts of everyone.

After finishing their work, Wei Ruo and the others stayed overnight at the farmhouse. Because the rooms were limited, the three men rested in one room, and Wei Ruo got a room alone.

A few of them are not squeamish people, and it is enough to have a house to shelter them from the wind and rain.

Because of a busy day, Wei Ruo fell asleep early and slept until dawn.

In the early morning of the second day, as soon as everyone woke up, a subordinate came to report: "Master Qian, the road is clear! There is already a small path for pedestrians! People from outside have already entered."

To be able to pass through so quickly, the joint efforts of everyone is indispensable.

Except for Wei Mingting and Xu Zhengyong who were trapped in the middle of the night last night and were asked to sleep all night, the other soldiers took turns digging all night, and even the local people spontaneously took turns to work all night.

At the same time, the people from the yamen outside and the porters brought by Wei Jinyi also stayed overnight, so they were able to dig through so quickly.

"Good, good! You all worked hard!" Wei Mingting was very happy.

Immediately afterwards, he ordered: "Let the people in need pass first, we are not in a hurry."

Wei Mingting ordered his subordinates to wait for a while, until the people in the village who wanted to go out went out first, and then led his subordinates to leave.

When Wei Ruo packed up his things and was about to leave, he realized that Wei Jinyi was not in the farmyard.

After questioning, I learned that Wei Jin did not rest in the room last night, but went to dig the tunnel with other people.

When he came back, Wei Ruo saw that he was wearing a coarse jacket borrowed from the villagers. It was not because he cherished his clothes, but because the original clothes had long hem and big sleeves, making it inconvenient to work.

Although she was dressed in coarse cloth and short clothes, she still couldn't hide her elegance.

Wei Jin also went back to his room to change his clothes, and left two taels of silver on the bed as a reward for staying overnight and borrowing clothes.

After that, several people left Xishan Village.

After leaving the village, Wei Mingting asked his soldiers to go back to rest first. Those whose families were in Xingshan County went home directly;

After entering the city, Xu Zhengyong also separated from Wei Ruo and the others. He wanted to go home to keep his parents safe. During the time he lost contact, his parents should also be very worried.

In the end, Wei Mingting was left to take Wei Ruo and Wei Jinyi back to Wei Mansion.

After entering the mansion, Wei Ruo didn't follow Wei Mingting to Cangyun Garden on the grounds of going back to change clothes, but went straight back to Tingsong Garden.

Wei Jin also didn't go to Cangyun Garden, he walked to the backyard with Wei Ruo.

Along the way, Wei Ruo saw that Wei Jinyi looked a little tired, so he didn't say anything to him, until Wei Ruo returned to Tingsongyuan, the two of them didn't communicate.

Wei Mingting returned to Cangyun Garden, seeing Wei Mingting returning safely, Yun's tears fell like rain.

Wei Mingting knew that he had frightened his wife, but he didn't know how to comfort her, so he could only hug her to comfort her.

Then Wei Yichen and Wei Qingwan also rushed over.

"Father, it's great that you're fine!" Wei Qingwan rushed forward, tears streaming down her face just like Yun's.

Wei Yichen looked at his father, full of excitement, but was speechless.

After a while, Yun Shi and Wei Qingwan calmed down and stopped crying.

"It's God's blessing that my husband can come back safely this time! Ancestors bless you!" Yun said with great emotion.

Wei Mingting shook his head and said, "No, it's not God's blessing that I came back this time, but Jin Yi and Ruo'er, two children, went looking for me regardless of their own safety. If Ruo'er was not smart, I might have already stepped on the road to hell."

Yun looked at Wei Mingting in surprise: "The two children Ruo'er and Jin Yi went looking for you?"

Wei Mingting nodded: "The two children are kind-hearted. They not only saved the people in the south of the city, but also saved me."

Listening to Wei Mingting's words, both Wei Yichen and Wei Qingwan showed surprise expressions.

After being surprised, Wei Yichen looked happy and respectful: "The eldest sister is more capable and brave than me."

Wei Qingwan's face was a little stiff.

Later, Xiaobei came to Tingsongyuan and brought Wei Ruo a box of things.

"These are some novelty items that the young master saw while he was away, and they were bought for the young miss."

There is a large box full of things, including rouge and gouache for my daughter's home, accessories such as hairpins and flowers, and some weird things.

After Wei Ruo accepted the things, he personally went to Yingzhu Garden to thank Wei Jinyi.

Pushing open the door of Yingzhu Garden, Wei Ruo saw a familiar figure in a familiar place.

Wei Ruo walked into the pavilion, sat down on the empty seat next to him, and looked at what Wei Jinyi was writing on the paper.

"I have received the gift from Second Brother, thank you Second Brother."

"Um."

"I have something for you too." Wei Ruo took out a dagger from his pocket and handed it to Wei Jinyi.

This dagger was made together with a craftsman last time when it was made for Xu Zhengyong.

Wei Jin also glanced at the dagger and asked, "Is it the same as the one you gave to Deputy General Xu?"

"Not exactly the same. Although the blade inside is similar, the scabbard and handle are different." Wei Ruo said.

"Yeah." Wei Jin turned his eyes back to the calligraphy and painting in his hand blankly.
