Because of this incident, the departure time of the fifth brother for the frontier was significantly advanced.
Although only a handful of people in the family know about the matter between him and the eldest brother, there aren't many people in their family to begin with.
Apart from him and the eldest brother, who are directly involved, the old lady, the eldest lady, and his mother are all aware of the situation. Everyone sees each other every day, and whenever they see him, they all have an expression of wanting to say something but stopping themselves, as if he really was a fallen man.
Of course, the ladies meant no harm. They simply see him as a child and want to show him more care.
However, they are afraid that they might inadvertently say something that could have a negative impact, so they often deliberate carefully.
But they overlooked that boys of the fifth brother's age are usually rebellious. Although the boys in their general's mansion are not foolish, their adolescent pride is still very strong.
These days, the fifth brother feels uneasy every time he comes home and sees the expressions of the ladies.
Therefore, the fifth brother, carrying his last burden, directly followed the soldiers to the frontier to find his fourth uncle.
The old lady thought for a while, then comforted the fifth brother's mother, saying, "When a child grows up, he is not under his mother's control. Letting him go and experience the world is a good thing."
But the fifth brother's mother is still crying.
The eldest lady was also present at the time. She sighed and said, "Sister, if you are worried, I can have the eldest brother call him back right now..."
"Sister, I... I'm not worried about his safety. I'm just worried that after he goes to the frontier, he will have even more difficulty finding a wife."
Before the eldest lady could comfort her, the old lady said, "What's there to fear? Aren't there plenty of bachelors in our general's mansion? Didn't your father's master, Old Pang, also remain a bachelor? Don't be afraid."
The eldest lady: "..." She felt something was off.
After hearing this, the fifth brother's mother was shocked, and then she started crying again.
Coincidentally, when the Baozi family returned to the capital, the fifth brother was riding a horse, preparing to leave the city gate.
The two families are very familiar with each other. The fifth brother recognized the Li Jin family's carriage at a glance. He was very surprised. He thought that Baozi would not return for a few years. Who knew it would be so soon!
The fifth brother: "..." Suddenly regretted. But the arrow was on the string, and he had to let it fly.
The fifth brother rarely hesitated about whether or not to stop and greet them. Although he really wanted to do so, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to control his emotions.
Unexpectedly, the carriage stopped directly. The little leopard lifted the curtain and gave the fifth brother a big smile.
"Fifth Brother!"
The fifth brother's physical reaction was much faster than his mental reaction. He immediately showed a smile as usual, rode a few steps forward, and said, "Oh, you've become so tanned, little leopard."
The little leopard: "..." With a darker face, he directly pulled the curtain down.
The fifth brother cheerfully lifted the curtain again, only to see the leopard sitting behind Xiao Baozi.
