Farming and Raising Cubs (II)

Chapter 244: Return

Li Mumu only hoped that the questions she asked would be enough to allow them to avoid the enemy's traps.

Gu Shangqing came back faster than Li Mumu expected, even faster than mentioned in the original book.

According to the original novel, Gu Shangqing will not be able to come back for at least two months.

But now, Gu Shangqing came back so long in advance.

Moreover, he returned victoriously with a large army.

After entering Daxi, Gu Shangqing sent a letter in advance, telling them the date of his return.

So on the day the army returned, the Gu family went to the third floor of Wangyou's rest house to see.

The road where Wangyou Rest House is located is exactly the place where the army must pass when returning.

When Gu Shangqing passed by below, they could see him through the window of the room on the third floor of Wangyou Xiaojie.

Not only the Gu family came, but also Li Zhiyin, Mrs. Shang, Min Huilan, Zhang Qihui and Guo Liyan came.

Apart from Min Huilan, Li Zhiyin was because of General Li, and Madam Shang was naturally because of General Shang.

Zhang Qihui and Guo Liyan did it because of their fathers and brothers.

They all came, and Min Huilan, as their good friend, naturally came as well.

Fortunately, there are not many partitions on the third floor, and the entire floor is a rest area, which is very spacious.

So even though so many people came, it didn't seem crowded and was still very spacious.

"Where are they?" Mother Gu asked anxiously.

Although I already know that Gu Shangqing has returned safely, the closer he gets to coming back, the more anxious I become.

"I have sent people to wait at the city gate. Once they see him, they will come and tell us immediately." Li Zhiyin said softly, "It should be soon."

Mother Gu nodded and said with a smile, "Miss Li, please don't think I'm annoying. Shang Qing went to war once before, and everyone said he died in the battle. If it weren't for the children who kept supporting me, I wouldn't have been able to make it. Later, Shang Qing suddenly came home, which really gave me a huge surprise."

"Knowing that Shang Qing is safe this time, I really..." Mother Gu said excitedly.

"I understand." Li Zhiyin said, "In the past, my grandfather and I were always at the border. Even if I was by his side, I would still worry whenever he went to the battlefield. What's more, we are so far away from each other now, I am even more worried."

"I'm also worried about my grandfather, so I understand how you feel." Li Zhiyin said.

Madam Gu nodded, "It's not easy for you either. You have endured more than us.

Gu Shangqing had only been on the expedition twice, yet she was so worried.

General Li spent his entire life in military service.

Moreover, Mother Gu now understands Li Zhiyin's situation to some extent.

When Li Zhiyin was very young, he could be said to have depended on General Li for everything.

The father and the stepmother in the mansion cannot be relied upon at all.

At this time, the servant that Li Zhiyin had sent out to wait at the city gate came back panting. As soon as he reached the third floor, he hurriedly said, "I'm back! We should be entering the city by now!"
