Not to mention anything else, but among the people who are looking forward to Feng Junhou's return, the one who is most eager to return is definitely the Zhang family's young lady.
"Hurry up, here, and here, why haven't they been cleaned?"
Without Feng Junhou and General Guan in Xiaowei's Mansion, Secretary Zhang is the biggest.
The young lady of the Zhang family was patrolling around the principal's residence, scolding anyone she saw who was dissatisfied, acting like a complete hostess.
Not to mention that the servants in the house were ordered by her to run around without their feet touching the ground.
Even the staff members of the General Staff Department, another main department of the Colonel's Mansion, were busy helping to tidy up the Colonel's Mansion.
There is no other reason for this, because the princes and the soldiers who went out to fight are about to return victorious.
Everyone in the school's mansion is preparing to welcome it.
Madam Zhang gave the order, and it must be done properly, without any unpleasantness.
As for what is not pleasing to the eyes, it is naturally up to Mrs. Zhang to have the final say.
If some people are busy, others will naturally be free.
After Ah Chong woke up, he didn't see his little aunt and started crying loudly.
The wet nurse couldn't coax him for a long time, so she had to hold him and find Zhang Xingyi who was busy:
"Ms. Zhang, Xiao Lang has been crying to find you."
As soon as Zhang Xingyi saw it, he quickly took Ah Chong and patted it twice skillfully. As expected, Ah Chong stopped crying.
"Where's the other one? Where's both?"
Zhang Xingyi asked while holding Ah Chong in his arms.
"The little lady is in the inner room, playing by herself, but she's not crying."
The wet nurse quickly answered.
From the wet nurse's point of view, the temperaments of these two siblings are quite different.
One cannot live without people for a moment, and the other can play alone for a whole day.
Zhang Xingyi carried Ah Chong into the inner room, and saw that both of them were supporting themselves with one hand, and trying hard to reach the table with one hand, trying to reach a small wooden horse on the table with trembling hands.
The wet nurse was watching, preventing her from falling and not daring to help.
This little lady has a bad temper and won't be happy if others help her.
"Shuangshuang, stop playing. Let's go and pick up your adults and grandma."
As Zhang Xingyi said this, he stretched out a hand to hug both of them.
After all, she had some foundation in martial arts, and over the past few years, during the critical period of her growth, someone had deliberately adjusted her diet, supplemented her nutrition, and enhanced her immunity.
So she was quite strong. Although she was holding Ah Chong with one hand, she could easily hold both of them with the other hand.
Who knows that she doesn't like crying? As soon as she hugged her, she said "Wow".
The little chubby hands and short legs kept making noises: "Go away! Go away quickly!"
At the same time, he tried hard to lean forward, trying to break away from Zhang Xingyi's control and get the small wooden horse on the desk.
"That's mine!" Zhang Xingyi immediately got angry when he saw her being disobedient, "I won't let you play with it!"
This little wooden horse is a little person sitting on a horse, and the bottom is specially made into an arc shape. It will sway when you touch it lightly.
It was a toy that Feng Yong specially sent from Hanzhong to Jincheng for her when she was still a child.
Now that she has grown up, she has put these things away long ago.
It's just that in the past few months, the owner and his wife of the house have been away, leaving their two children in her care.
Sometimes she couldn't help it, so she took out these gadgets to make the little couple happy.
"I want I want!"
Shuangshuang didn't have much vocabulary. Every time she said something, she always had to repeat it, and at the same time, her legs were kicking in the air to express her strong will.
Zhang Xingyi couldn't stand it anymore, so she had to put Ah Chong down first, and with a "bang" sound, her free hand hit both of their little buttocks.
"I have the same virtue as your mother! You want to snatch everything from me!"
Zhang Xingyi said angrily.
How can the little witch be willing to suffer such a loss?
In pain, he flattened his mouth on the spot and began to cry loudly.
She usually doesn't like to cry, but this time she cried with amazing force.
Two wet nurses came forward and took turns coaxing her left and right, but to no avail.
Ah Chong on the side was so frightened that he quickly started crying.
The two little people cried loudly together, almost tearing off the roof.
The veins on Zhang Xingyi's forehead popped out, and she felt her temples throbbing.
It’s not so tiring after a day’s busy work!
Just when the two little people were making Zhang Xingyi dizzy, a cold voice suddenly sounded from the door:
"Why are you crying so hard?"
When Zhang Xingyi heard this voice, his heart skipped a beat!
She quickly looked toward the door and saw the Guan family sister in military uniform appearing at the door.
"Sister, I don't know why. They are usually nice, but they cried so much today!"
Zhang Xingyi saw Guan Ji walking in and quickly explained.
I have tried my best to take care of these two little devils for so long, but I never thought that I would fall short at the last moment.
Now let alone asking this sister to thank me, it would be a good thing if she could not let her misunderstand that he abused her child.
Probably because the murderous aura left in Guan Ji's body was too strong, Ah Chong was the first to stop crying and looked at this familiar person approaching with some confusion.
Guan Ji saw that Ah Chong had stopped crying, so she reached out to take both of them from the wet nurse's hand.
Shuangshuang was much bolder than Ah Chong. Regardless of whether he still remembered that Guan Ji was his mother, he just hugged Guan Ji's neck.
Then he turned around and pointed at Zhang Xingyi and complained.
Fortunately, she couldn't speak clearly when she cried, and Guan Ji couldn't understand what she was saying.
But even so, Zhang Xingyi's face has already started to turn green!
This little witch is really not to be messed with, and she even knows how to hug her!
He had dragged her into shit and piss for so many days, and this was how she repaid herself.
He really is that heartless guy, he doesn’t have any conscience at all!
Zhang Xingyi gritted his teeth secretly, but had to put on a smile on his face:
"Sister, why did you come back like this? Where is my brother-in-law?"
Guan Ji gently patted her daughter and comforted her, then she said:
"I was thinking about the child, so I rushed back early. Your brother-in-law led the army behind, and is probably preparing to enter the city."
Guan Ji said and glanced at Zhang Xingyi again.
Zhang Xingyi felt something unexpected in her heart again, and she didn't know if there was something wrong with her. She always felt that her sister's eyes had something special and her words had profound meaning.
Sister, please don’t do this. I really don’t want to stuff your child into a well...
Zhang Xingyi was feeling aggrieved when she suddenly felt movement at her feet. She looked down and saw that it was Ah Chong hugging her leg: "Aunt, hug! Hug!"
It turned out that Ah Chong saw that the woman holding his sister was both familiar and unfamiliar, but Guan Ji had just come down from the battlefield, and the aura on her body was too dangerous.
So the little clever ghost instinctively came to find his little aunt.
Zhang Xingyi was happy and quickly picked him up.
Ah Chong still has a conscience!
When Guan Ji saw Ah Chong being so attached to Zhang Xingyi, a faint smile appeared on her face.
With the tiger girl's demeanor, she handed her children to Zhang Xingyi before leaving, so she naturally believed in her.
How could he suspect that she would be bad to her children?
At this moment, a maid came in and reported: "Madam, your army is almost at the east gate."
"Oh, looking at all the fuss, I was so busy that I almost forgot!"
Zhang Xingyi looked anxious, "Everyone in the school captain's house still has to go to the city gate to greet him."
Guan Ji held both of them in one hand, stretched out the other hand, and said with a smile: "Go and do your work."
Unexpectedly, as soon as Zhang Xingyi handed Ah Chong over, Ah Chong turned his head away from Guan Ji and kept getting into Zhang Xingyi's arms. He didn't know whether he was unwilling or afraid to let Guan Ji hold her.
Guan Ji's face froze.
You little heartless person, you are still the flesh that fell off my body, and you actually turn to outsiders like this?
Zhang Xingyi coaxed and handed Ah Chong over, and then hurried away.
Feng Junhou went on an expedition in September. When he came back, it was already early December. It had already snowed several times in Longyou, and it was about to reach the coldest time.
Even with such a cold weather, it could not stop the enthusiasm of the Pingxiang officials.
A dense crowd gathered at the east gate. Everyone braved the cold weather and came voluntarily to welcome the victorious Master Wang back.
There are basically no indigenous inhabitants in Pingxiang City - not counting the barbarian tribes who wandered over and used the dilapidated city as a winter refuge.
After Feng Yong selected this place as the seat of the Xiaowei Mansion, he demolished all the original earthen walls and rebuilt a brand new city.
At that time, he had a lot of laborers who had been captured by the rebels, and he had gathered many Hu tribesmen from Longyou. In addition, the captain's mansion controlled at least half of the Han's wool and wool distribution.
Therefore, the wealthy families in Shu who grabbed the first batch of workshop slots also followed suit and opened their workshops here.
With raw materials and products, there will be a steady stream of popularity.
For example, many people register transactions at Nanxiang Exchange, and then come here with large-amount wool bills to settle physical goods.
Just like those families who relied on Nanxiang to build new businesses, when the families who relied on Pingxiang heard that Feng Junhou had been cut off, everyone had the same thought:
"I don't care whether the soldiers from the Xiaowei Mansion can come back, but Feng Junhou must come back."
"Even if I am asked to provide money and food, I will let him come back."
…
After all, there are still people in Nanxiang who are harboring evil intentions.
But Pingxiang was completely counting on the safe return of a certain bumpkin.
When the news of the victory at Xiaoguan came, many people did not believe it at first. When the same news came one after another, the whole Pingxiang was boiling.
At first, everyone just thought that they would be thankful to be able to escape whole body, but unexpectedly, they actually won the battle. Not only did they win, but they also won a big victory.
Overjoyed, even the stingiest workshop manager gave extra meals to the weavers and handymen below.
Because this great victory was equivalent to not only preserving Longyou, but also greatly advancing the time to recover Liangzhou when the Cao thieves in Guanzhong no longer had the strength to use troops.
After regaining Liangzhou, who made the most money?
Of course it's the imperial court.
Who earns second?
Of course it is the Xinghan Society.
What about the third profit?
Of course, everyone has a wool spinning workshop, and at the same time, he can also get brown sugar honey wine and other rare items from the Xinghan Society!
Liangzhou is cold and cool, and this spirit is also very popular!
So welcome, we must warmly welcome Feng Junhou back from his victory!
If the group of guys in Xiping who followed the Guo family to cause trouble had worried them before, but after Feng Junhou returned with a great victory, it was no big deal!
No matter how well they choose the time to cause rebellion, how does it compare with Cao Zhen's 100,000-strong army?
Pingxiang was originally a wool production area, and the families who moved into the city were either tribal leaders or stewards of a certain family, or at least the upper echelons of the tribe.
Therefore, the people at the city gate who were eagerly waiting for the army were all wearing all kinds of woolen clothes, and many people were even wearing down jackets.
"Come on, come on!"
When a long black line began to appear in the distance, someone started shouting.
The first one to appear was the cavalry from Xiaowei Mansion.
When they set out from Pingxiang, they were at least one man with two horses, and some had three men with one man.
But now when I come back, let alone two horses, one person and one horse can no longer do it.
Many people became horseless cavalry.
But even the only mounted cavalry made everyone feel a suffocating pressure.
During the Battle of Xiaoguan, the armor and riding equipment of Xiaowei Mansion officially appeared in front of the world for the first time.
Three thousand armored cavalry defeated the bandit camp, and Zhao Erlang became famous in one battle.
In order to maximize the publicity effect of the victory and improve the morale of the army and the people, Feng Tubiao naturally made some arrangements before entering the city.
The first person to appear in front of everyone was the armored knight, whose men and horses were wrapped in red armor.
When the heavy iron hooves of only a hundred riders began to step into the city gate, the crowd had already involuntarily backed away without even increasing their speed, just slowing down.
Although the true faces of the knights could not be seen clearly, the chilling aura emanating from them was colder than the weather in December.
"With such iron cavalry, no wonder they can defeat Cao Cao's thieves!"
It was like the crowd had been cast into a silence spell. After the cavalry passed by, they all secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Only then did someone say something.
After the red iron cavalry passed by, the light cavalry and wandering cavalry followed closely into the city, only a few hundred cavalry.
In the past, the light cavalry of Xiaowei Mansion could be regarded as elite cavalry, but due to the contrast with the red armored cavalry in front, the people of Pingxiang felt that these cavalry were much more approachable.
Someone began to come forward and hand them a bowl of hot soup or food unique to the workshop canteen.
More often, there are fruits such as dates and oranges.
Even with empty hands, he would still applaud and cheer for these soldiers.
The initial silence soon dissipated, and Pingxiang City Gate began to become lively.
As more soldiers entered the city, the cheers became louder and louder.
"Wan Sheng!"
"Wan Sheng!"
The noise is getting louder and louder.
Even though it was a cold day, the faces of the infantrymen who finally entered the city were already flushed red, and they felt extremely hot on their bodies.
This is the human heart, this is what we fight for...
The soldiers in the army suddenly had a profound understanding of the various ideological educations they received in daily life.
Fight for the people, fight to quell chaos, fight to protect the peace of the world!
"This is 'eating a pot of pulp to welcome the king', right?"
From a high place where others could not see, Zhang Xingyi looked at the scene of supporting the army below, with shock, joy, and other indescribable complex expressions on his face.
"Forget it."
Feng Yong also looked at the scene below and smiled slightly.
The court wants to win the hearts and minds of the people, and the officials want to protect their interests.
Cangtou Qianshou is also happy because he has been spared from the war.
So this rare scene happened.
As for Feng Yong, it is.
"I thought you would personally lead the army into the city and show your face in front of all the people in the city. What a great opportunity to improve your reputation. Why give up this great opportunity?"
Zhang Xingyi turned around and looked at Feng Yong's side face. For some reason, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated.
Why haven't you noticed before that this person's profile is so beautiful?
"The soldiers deserve this. If I go, I will only steal their limelight."
Feng Junhou looked straight and spoke righteously.
In fact, a certain country turtle was secretly thinking:
If these soldiers are not allowed to feel the enthusiasm of the people in the city, how can they improve their ideological consciousness?
How could the young lady of the Zhang family guess the dirty thoughts in Feng Junhou's heart? She only thought that this man had a broad mind and a high vision.
Looking at his profile, there were waves in her eyes.
Knowing that the nearest guards were guarding the door, the young lady of the Zhang family bit her lip, quietly leaned forward, hugged Feng Yong's arm, and said with a hint of boredom in her voice:
