When the guards at the door saw the carriage stop at the entrance, they thought that the usual courier was here to deliver letters. However, when they saw someone get out of the carriage, they immediately straightened their posture and vigilantly observed the people who were alighting.

A familiar-looking and beautiful woman appeared in their line of sight first. Before they could figure out who it was, they became puzzled when they saw a child come down from the car.

A woman bringing a child to this place? To look for someone? Are they here to look for their family?

As the guards were not allowed to leave their posts without orders, as much as they were curious, they could only watch from where they were standing. In their hearts, they were hoping that she would walk up the steps towards the entrance. In that case, they would have a reason to ask her why she was here.

Under everyone’s expectant gazes, Xiaoguo stopped in her tracks as she approached the steps. Without hesitation, she turned around and walked towards the carriage.

The guards were extremely disappointed. They had been idling the whole day and were hoping to hear some juicy gossip. But it seemed like it was not going to happen.

Xiaoguo brought Zhuang Zhuang to the front of the carriage and smiled sheepishly at the embarrassed courier. Then, she lifted the curtain abruptly. “Why aren’t you guys coming down?”

The five people in the carriage were startled by her.

Yu Ling and Xiao Zhu’s legs went weak when they saw the soldiers. Seeing their brother-in-law in the home setting was fine, but now that they were in his work place, their legs simply became out of control.

The same thoughts were running through Ruyi’s mind. When she saw the words “General’s Residence” at the entrance, she felt very afraid. This had really exceeded her expectations. Her brother-in-law, who looked completely down-to-earth at home, had suddenly become an intimidating figure in this place.

“Come out.”

Xiaoguo held the curtain and called out to them. Zhuang Zhuang was feeling quite anxious to see his father, so he also tried to persuade the others to get out of the car.

Faced with the mother and son’s voices, Qin Anming finally succumbed and got out of the car.

The reason why he didn’t get out of the car was actually similar to the others. They knew that Jiang Danhe was a general, but there was still a big difference between knowing his title and seeing the reality of it in person.

However, no matter what Jiang Danhe’s status was, he was still his brother-in-law and family. After thinking it through, he didn’t feel conflicted anymore.

Qin Anming got out of the car with Shu Botong following closely behind him. The latter was not as scared as everyone else, but he looked rather dazed when he saw the armored guards at the door.

During the time when his house was confiscated, a group of soldiers dressed in armor had rushed into his place. When he saw the same armored soldiers at the entrance earlier on, he fell into a daze. He could almost hear the sounds of those heavy footsteps ringing in his ears again, that was the reason why he was stunned for a moment there.

With widened eyes, the guards at the door watched two more men get out of the car. They were wondering if they should inform their superiors. This group of visitors was too strange.

When she saw Qin Anming alight from the cariage, Ruyi didn’t hesitate anymore. The people living in the general’s residence were her friends. What was there to be afraid of? She had called him brother-in-law so many times, so she must not be afraid. Getting off the carriage is no big deal!

Looking like she was on the verge of dying, Ruyi got out of the car with her bags in hand.

Yu Ling and Xiao Zhu also suppressed their fear and followed behind her. It would be odd if everybody got off except for them.

Xiaoguo and Zhuang Zhuang waited patiently for everyone to get out of the carriage. She didn’t forget to thank the couriers who had escorted them here. Not wanting them to come all the way here for nothing, she offered to pay them for their help. Unexpectedly, they refused to accept the money. After waiting for everyone to get out of the carriage, the two couriers returned to the courier station to rest.

While they were getting out of the car, the guard had already reported their arrival to Li Shouji.

There was no choice. Only the general and the deputy general were residing in the residence. Since the general was not around, there was only the deputy general whom they could report to. The guard would have liked to report this to the general’s wife, but she was still in her hometown, so he could not do so even if he wished to.

“What? Three men and four women are at the door? And two of them look familiar?”

Feeling puzzled, Li Shouji repeated his question again. This was the first time that someone had come to visit. He couldn’t help but feel a little curious.

“Deputy General, to be precise, there are two men, four women, and a little boy.

“Oh… which one of them looks familiar?”

“Deputy General, 1 think I’ve seen the boy and his mother before. They look very familiar.”

His words successfully piqued Li Shouji’s curiosity. He decided to take a look himself.

“What do the two of them look like?”

Li Shouji asked as he walked, trying to recall as he searched through his memories. The familiar-looking mother and son?

“The woman is quite pretty. She has fair skin, big eyes, and a small face. The boy is also quite cute. He’s fair and chubby.”

Forgive him for being uncultured, that was the only way he knew how to describe the two people.

Li Shouji was truly enlightened by the guard’s generic description. He stopped and gave him a disdainful look before continuing to walk towards the door.

Although he didn’t show it on his face, he had already started to do a quick search in his mind. The mother and son who matched the guard’s description—who had come to the general’s residence to look for someone. A bold thought suddenly came to him.

The guard walked with his head lowered and almost bumped into Li Shouji, who suddenly stopped in his tracks. Luckily, he managed to stop in time, but he was sweating profusely in his heart. “Oh my god, this could affect my career path if I made any mistakes.”

After the short pause, Li Shouji started walking faster and faster. He couldn’t wait to see if the person outside the door was who he thought she was.

However, if she was indeed the person he had guessed, why didn’t he notice any actions from Jiang Danhe? If he knew that his wife and son were coming, wouldn’t he have to make preparations at least a few days in advance?

“It was indeed them!”

Li Shouji’s face lit up and he shouted, “Sister-in-law, Sister-in-law! Nephew, nephew!”

No one was treated unfairly. He called them the same number of times.

Xiaoguo smiled and waved at him. Forgive her for feeling too shy to greet him loudly in public.

Also happy to see him, Zhuang Zhuang jumped up and down, while waving at him. He was not as shy as his mother. Instead, he was very thick-skinned.

Li Shouji had called out to him loudly, so he responded just as loudly to him. This is him being hospitable.

Ruyi and the others had never seen Li Shouji before, so before he could run over, they quickly asked, “Sister Xiaoguo, who is he?”

Xiaoguo said to them, “He’s Jiang Danhe’s good friend. His name is Li Shouji.”

After thinking for a while, she decided not to tell them about Li Shouji’s position so that they could get along with him without any burdens.

At this moment, Li Shouji came up to them. He touched Zhuang Zhuang and looked at everyone happily. “Sister-in-law, why are you here? Does Jiang Danhe know?”

“No, he doesn’t know yet. We were hoping to surprise him.”

Xiaoguo made a gesture to keep it a secret before asking, “Is he not at home?”

“Don’t worry, he’s not here!” Li Shouji looked at the others curiously. “Who are they?”

“This is my brother and his friends. They were worried about me, so they came with me.”

“This is my brother, Shu Botong, Ruyi, Yu Ling, and Xiao Zhu.”

“Hello, hello.” After greeting the others, Li Shouji led the group towards the residence.

The guards watched as the group walked past them. They were so frightened that they didn’t even dare to breathe. From the moment the deputy general called out “sister-in-law” and “nephew”, they instantly remembered their identities.

They were wondering why the pair looked so familiar. It turned out that Young Master and Madam, who had superb culinary skills, had returned!

After they left, the guards heaved a sigh of relief, secretly glad that they hadn’t said anything

inappropriate.

“You must be tired from the journey.”

“It wasn’t that bad. How have you been…?”

Xiaoguo admired the scenery in the courtyard as she walked. She didn’t expect Jiang Danhe to heed her advice. After some landscaping, the front yard no longer looked lifeless.

“Are you asking about me or Jiang Danhe?” Li Shouji immediately laughed and said teasingly, “If you are asking about me, I’ve been well. If you are asking about Jiang Danhe…”

Xiaoguo was indeed trying to ask about Jiang Danhe, but there were too many people around, so she felt a bit embarrassed and changed her question at the last minute.

Hearing Li Shouji’s response, Xiaoguo didn’t hide it anymore. Although she was a little shy, she asked, “How has he been?” “Not so good..”
