Jiang Pengji plotted the entire Wanzhou, and Shangyang County was inescapable.
Feng Jin took the initiative to invite Ying to be a lobbyist, and Jiang Pengji sent hundreds of elite escorts.
In the early winter, the snow filled the air, and there was no war in the north. Feng Jin planned to take this opportunity to go back and persuade his parents.
If it succeeds, the next spring will only need to concentrate troops to attack Chengde County.
Wei Jingxian carried her one-year-old Changsheng and followed her husband Feng Jin into the carriage. The maids, servants, and gifts also took up three carriages.
Regardless of her young age, Changsheng has a lively and active personality, and her speech is clear and organized. The small carriage is not enough for her to move around, and it doesn't take long for her to get tired of playing. Vegetable leaves that have been exposed to the sun in the afternoon.
"Daddy—hug—"
Seeing Feng Jin entering the carriage, Changsheng's black grape-like eyes lit up, facing his two fat, white, lotus-root-like arms.
"Okay, Daddy hugs Changsheng, is this posture okay? Don't jump around, Daddy's old bones can't stand your tossing like this."
Feng Jin smiled and hugged Changsheng, the little girl jumped up and down on his lap, taking care of herself and having fun.
He played with him for a while, and his back was sweating from exhaustion. His daughter was still full of energy, and he couldn't help but complain secretly.
Wei Jingxian noticed his embarrassment and took the initiative to hug Changsheng, "You doted on Changsheng so much, let her sit or not, wait until she went to Shangyang County and met her parents-in-law, if Changsheng was here It's not good to make a fool of yourself in front of the two old people."
Feng Jin smiled and said, "Changsheng has a sweet mouth and is the best at coaxing people. It's too late for my father and mother to love me, how could they not like it? What's more, she was born a year and a half ago, and the two elders haven't seen her yet, even if Changsheng lives again. Make some noise, and they won't be annoyed."
As the so-called "intergenerational relatives", the older elders not only like the obedient juniors, but also like the sweet, lively and not rude.
Besides, Changsheng is still the only girl in the third generation of the direct line, and parents have no reason not to like it because of this uniqueness.
"Yes, Changsheng's mouth is the sweetest—"
Changsheng couldn't understand what her parents said, but she could understand her own name, and she learned it ignorantly, holding a sweet cake in both hands.
Feng Jin raised her eyebrows at Wei Jingxian, with a "I'm right for my husband" expression, Wei Jingxian pursed her lips and smiled.
Fengyi County is not a short distance away from Shangyang County, and along the way, there are also mobs who are not clothed and hungry.
The more they leave the territory of Fengyi County, the more difficult the life of the people outside is, and the ruins can be seen everywhere.
It has been a year and a half since the Shanghai earthquake, but the lives of the common people have not improved. The Tsing Yi Army and the Red Lotus Sect are rampant in the north. The common people either join forces with them or are exploited and robbed by them. Spring farming and autumn harvesting cannot be carried out normally. The village was desolate, overgrown with weeds, and looked desolate and deserted. Feng Jin walked along the road, avoiding places like sleeping in the open as much as possible.
He is a young man, and his yang fire is flourishing, but Changsheng is still young and cannot be hit by the yin wind.
Under the protection of elite soldiers, Feng Jin and his wife set foot on the long-lost Shangyang County.
Because of the Feng clan, the city walls of Shangyang County were built taller. In order to avoid Shangjing, the height of the city walls was lower than that of Shangjing.
Rao is that the city wall is tall and sturdy. After the earthquake in Shangjing and several military disasters, the city wall also left indelible traces.
It took Feng Jin a lot of time to prove his identity. The couple and their servants and servants could enter the city, but if hundreds of soldiers wanted to enter the city, they needed to hand over their weapons. In response to this problem, Feng Jin could only hold Changsheng and wait for the wind. The butler came to negotiate.
He thought that when his parents received the news, they would at most send a housekeeper over, but he didn't expect it to be his eldest brother.
Feng Gui, the eldest son of the Feng family, is now twenty-five.
"Big brother!"
When the handsome young man saw Feng Jin standing outside the city with the child in his arms, he almost didn't recognize that this was his second brother.
"Huaiyu, you are finally back."
Feng Gui was emotionally excited, and her pace was slightly faster than usual, but it didn't look messy.
Wei Jingxian took the initiative to hug Changsheng, so that the girl would not disturb Brother Feng Jin's relationship.
After they greeted each other, she brought Changsheng to greet Feng Gui. Feng Gui received news early in the morning that Feng Jin had brought his wife and daughter back to visit relatives. Seeing Bai Chuan, Changsheng was very excited at first sight, and his favorability level soared to the peak. "This is the eldest niece? She looks like a younger brother and sister."
Wei Jingxian taught Changsheng to call Fenggui "Uncle", Changsheng also gave face very much, shouted clearly and raised his hand to hug.
Feng Gui was used to seeing shy and shy children, such as his two sons. How could he have seen Changsheng so enthusiastic and not afraid of life? He was so happy that he reached out and hugged her. Changsheng is a strong girl and gave it to his uncle in front of everyone. Left and right cheeks snapped twice, leaving wet kisses.
Feng Jin looked at it, and his face was not very good.
Feng Gui was stunned for a moment, then showed a gentle and shallow smile, and said, "The girl of Huaiyu's family is not afraid of life, she is smart and smart. This is not a place to talk about the old, Huaiyu, bring your younger brother and sister and eldest niece to the city quickly. , parents, they are still waiting for you."
Feng Jin glanced hesitantly at the guards behind him, Feng Gui understood it in his heart, and made people aware of the city guards.
Entering the city, Feng Jin's eyes were a little sad.
Compared with the scene outside Shangyang County, the life of the people in the city is relatively stable, but compared with the prosperous scene in memory, not only the population has withered, but the buildings in the city also have a taste of decadence and depression, and many buildings are It was patched and looked a bit rundown.
"Last year's earthquake, is your home okay?" Feng Jin asked.
Fenggui hugged her eldest niece, who was a little heavy, and replied, "Everything is fine at home, but the people of Shangyang County are suffering... Alas, there are two mob groups, the Tsing Yi Army and the Red Lotus Sect, who are raging on one side. Paying the mob, with little success…”
Changsheng opened his big eyes as bright as black grapes, his attention was attracted by Feng Gui's beard, and he raised his claws to scratch—
Feng Gui: "..."
Feng Jin could only apologize quickly and apologize for his arrogant child.
If it weren't for Changsheng being so noisy, he would have started growing a beard long ago.
"It's all right, it's rare to see such energetic children now, at least better than the two boys in the family, who are shy and shy like a little girl all day. Your sister-in-law is strict with children and restrains them. like wood..."
Feng Gui has been helping defend the city for the past two years, and he doesn't have much time at home. His two sons are enlightened by clan studies, and the rest of the time is his wife's education.
Feng Jin heard something wrong, "Brother, you and sister-in-law are..."
Uneasy at home
"It's nothing." Feng Gui said plainly, and then said to Feng Jin, "Her temperament... If her younger brother and sister are wronged, you don't have to bear it. By the way, Huai Yu... Today's banquet is only about family affairs... "
Feng Jin froze in his heart and responded with a small smile, "Brother, this is natural."
