Chapter 332: Well-behaved Children Are Loved!

, the Duke Dingbei's face turned even worse.He truly regrets marrying into the Jiao family. They're not a help at all, just a bunch of useless burdens!He didn't even glance at his mother-in-law, and i...But Li Yong refused, “How can that be Our children can’t be wronged. Don't worry, I have silver. Besides the military pay, I killed two barbarian leaders before and got one hundred taels, which is enough.”

Hui Niang did not say anything this time, but the shopkeeper, upon hearing Li Yong speak of the barbarian killers, became very excited.

"General, you just came back from campaigning with Lord Xinting, right I heard you won a glorious victory and drove the barbarians to tears"

Li Yong found it amusing and replied, "We certainly won a great victory, but whether the barbarians were crying their eyes out, we don't know. After all, we can't understand their language!"

The shopkeeper, the young helper, and even the customers who were buying things inside all burst into laughter.

The shopkeeper was enthusiastically arranging, "General, whatever you buy today, I'll give you a 10% discount! Our family also came from the north. On the way, we were chased by barbarians. My mother couldn't stand the torment and passed away. I really hate those barbarians! Thank you, General, for killing the barbarians and avenging us all!"

Li Yong quickly declined, saying it wasn't necessary. But the shopkeeper insisted, and the other guests chimed in as well. In the end, they ended up spending four or five ounces of silver less than they intended before finally leaving.

"With her previous gloom gone, Hui Niang's eyes sparkled with a newfound light. She reached out and took her husband's arm, saying, 'In the past, I disliked you going to the army, not because I thought being a soldier was bad, but because I worried about your safety. But that will no longer be the case! My husband, by protecting our home and country, fighting on the battlefield for the well-being of the Tianwu people, brings honor to me and our children!' "

Li Yong laughed brightly, his big white teeth gleaming in the sun. "Don't worry, your husband will be a general soon! I'll definitely earn you the title of 'Lady General'!"

The couple laughed so similarly, overflowing with sweetness, that passersby couldn't help but look over.

Fortunately, Huiniang discovered it in time, quickly withdrew her hand, blushing, and urged her husband to go home quickly.

The young couple bought two roasted chickens, two boxes of snacks, and sesame candies on the way. They just got into the carriage and headed back to Suijintan outside the city.

The mischievous boys in the village didn't go to school in the afternoon. Each one held a slingshot and darted around the orchard.

It's called scaring birds, but it's really just playful mischief.

When they saw a carriage returning to the village, they all ran down the mountain to see the excitement.

Li Yong took some sesame candies and a box of snacks, and gave them to Jia An and Jia Xi, instructing, “You guys share these, don’t worry about Fu Niu, there's an extra box for her.”

Jīa'ān Jiāxǐ brought the boys to say thanks, then they all scurried away.

Li Yong supported Huiniang as they entered the Li family gate. The old matriarch was chatting with Mrs. Cui, while Jia Yin lay on a nearby mat, lost in thought.

She flipped the large red ribbon over and over, examining it carefully for a long time. She just couldn't believe that this thing wasn't valuable. It could be bought back in the shop for a few hundred coins. Brother Jiahuan wouldn't have to hide it from home, would he

Could it be that there's something unusual about this thread

But it is only skillful craftsmanship, the style is also good, carefully compiled.

With your heart!

She sat up abruptly.

Jia Huan's face was flushed red at the time. Could it be that this ribbon was made for some woman he had asked to weave it

Is Jia Huan's brother in love with someone

She couldn't help but hug her grandmother's leg and cried, "Grandma, I want to go to Los Angeles!"

The old woman couldn't help but laugh and cry. She pretended to slap her granddaughter, and said reproachfully, "Your third uncle and the others haven't even been gone for two hours, what kind of temper are you throwing"

Jia Yin's spirit was broken, this road wouldn't work...

She was just guessing wildly. If she told her family, they would probably fly into a rage and end up accusing her brother wrongly. What should she do then

Seeing her granddaughter listless, the old woman felt a pang of sympathy and so coaxed, "In a few days, the fruits on the mountain will ripen. Grandma will take you there then. We'll send a few baskets of fruit to your uncles, okay"

"Alright." Jia Yin could only agree.

She thought carefully. Brother Huai was always honest and straightforward, so he probably wouldn't cause any trouble. She could just wait a week or so and go back to see him, have a good talk, and figure things out.

At this time, Huiniang and Li Yong entered the room.

"Fu Niu, come here quickly! I bought you some snacks!" Hui Niang smiled and beckoned to Jia Yin, who immediately ran over. "Master, you're back!"

Li Yong was afraid that Jia Yin would bump into his wife's stomach, so he quickly took two steps forward and picked her up. "Uncle has some good things here too!"

As they chatted, they reached the eaves of the corridor. The old lady hurriedly moved out a sturdy rattan chair and helped Huiniang sit down. "Huiniang, you must be tired. Take a rest for a while! You have two babies in your belly now. Doctor Zhang said that there is a risk of premature birth, so you must take extra care."

"Sister-in-law, I know. Since we're all riding carriages, it wasn't even a few steps." Huiniang sat down and gave the snack box to Jiayin.

Jia Yin opened the box and picked out some soft, easily melted treats. She first offered a piece to her grandmother, then gave some to Mrs. Cui, Hui Niang, and Li Yong before finally holding the box and smiling as she ate.

Who wouldn't love such a well-behaved and filial child!

Everyone was eating snacks, smiling warmly, but their hearts were even sweeter.

Li Yong took out the string of golden flower fruits, “Funiu, your uncle is not as good as your father. I haven’t captured anything good to give you as a birthday present, so I can only buy this small thing for you. You can wear it and play.”

Li Laotai felt sorry for him, knowing it wasn't easy to earn money, and complained: "Hui Niang has already made dresses for Fu Niu, why are you spending money on this"

"Hee hee, all the kids in town are wearing them, our Fu Niu can't be left out either," Li Yong said with a smile as he handed one to Jia Yin.

Jia Yin's eyes sparkled as she looked at her grandmother, causing the old woman to tap her forehead. "Take it, I won't refuse you anyway. Your eyeballs are practically glued to it."

Jia Yin quickly thanked her and then hung it on her waist.

The glittering fruit string swayed with a crisp sound, it was really fun and beautiful.

Jia Yin ran back and forth merrily, making everyone smile. The afternoon became even more lively because of this.

That night, the Lord Hou and Li Lao Si stayed in Yunhe Town and did not return.

After a night's sleep, Li Yong woke up and found that Hui Niang's belly didn't look like she was about to give birth. He decided to go back to the wharf to send some food and drink to his familiar friends and see how the camp was doing.

Although the lord just won a victory and is renowned in the army, it's still possible someone will have ulterior motives. It would be wise to give the lord extra eyes and ears.

Before leaving, Li Yong stopped by the Li family to say hello.

After hearing this, Old Mrs. Li insisted on giving him fifty taels of silver and instructed him, “The roasted chicken bought in town yesterday was delicious. Buy a few more and send them to the army. You and Lao Si may be skilled, but even on the battlefield, you can’t do without your brothers' care. These roasted chickens are a gift from your aunt!”

Li Yong was touched. He took the silver and smiled, "Don't worry, Aunt. I'll definitely bring the message. I have to go into town anyway, so I'm leaving now!"

"Go ahead, next time you come back to camp, be sure to say in advance. Have some food ready at home, it's always better than buying it outside."

"Got it, Auntie."

Li Yong rode a horse and arrived at the city gate quickly. He put away his horse and went to buy roast chicken.

The roast chicken stall encountered a big customer, and all fifty freshly baked chickens were immediately bought by Bao Yuan'er.

Li Yongjian still had fifty taels left, so he bought another basket of steamed buns and dumplings. In the end, he gathered two baskets and went out of town on a horse, hanging them on either side of the saddle and ran to the dock.

He had his mind set on the camp, unaware that his every trip into and out of town was being watched from afar.

And just as he had galloped away, two carriages arrived in a menacing hurry, racing toward the Golden Sand Beach...

Three updates are offered, little buddies. Let's talk about the update time again. Huahua is a Bao Ma (stay-at-home mom), who needs to pick up her children in the morning, noon, and evening. She usually types in the morning and edits and checks for updates in the afternoon. The time almost never gets too early. From now on, it will be 5 pm, everyone can come and see after work. Thanks, little buddies, hugs, muah!r Yan was practically desperate, he had even tried starving himself and banging his head against the wall, but in the end, it was still his mother's softening heart that sent him to the neighboring pr...
