The Comeback of the Charming Farmer's Wife-Chapter 2363 - 23065

Yang Xiayun hooked her arm with Yang Chuxia’s as they walked inside, saying, "That eldest is mischievous every day, while the youngest is an honest and silent type. I’ve always said the name Hongbo was wrong; it should’ve been Hongwen."

"Honesty is good too. Being too mischievous can be worrisome, like Yangyang."

Yang Xiayun knew a little about Yangyang’s matters and said, "Don’t worry about him. The child is quite capable. I heard he achieved quite a bit up north."

"How can I not worry? It’s been four years since he left." Yang Chuxia shook her head, "He’s had his achievements, but I’m more concerned about his safety."

"Enough of that, let’s not talk about him on such a joyous day." Yang Chuxia smiled again and asked, "By the way, where’s Linhao? Is he still in the back?"

"No, he went ahead to the palace."

"It’s good that you’re back. Uncle has been quite lonely at the State Duke’s manor all these years." Yang Chuxia said, "Every time he returns from the West Mountain camp, he has nowhere else to go but our place. In the past few years, Yangyang and the others have grown up and aren’t as clingy, making Uncle even lonelier."

"That’s our intention too. Linhao has mentioned many times he wanted to come back, leaving dad alone in the Capital City makes us uneasy. Now we brought the two boys back, so there’s someone to accompany him."

She had thought about sending the children back earlier, but considering Old Mu wasn’t often at the manor, leaving the kids there alone didn’t seem reassuring, so she didn’t send them back.

After Luo Linhao reported the matters in the south to the Emperor, the Emperor let him leave the palace. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

At the palace gate, he found Ye Zi’an waiting there.

"Cousin!"

Ye Zi’an looked him up and down, "Not bad!" He patted Luo Linhao’s shoulder, "You’ve become more imposing."

"Not as impressive as you, cousin, with your fair and noble presence."

"Ha! You’ve become slick over the years in the south. That’s progress."

"It’s a must." Luo Linhao said, "I’m not the only military officer down south. There are local officials too. If I’m not a little slick, what if they trip me up behind my back?"

"What arrangements did the Emperor make for you?" Ye Zi’an asked as they walked away from the palace gate.

"To the West Mountain camp." Luo Linhao replied, "The petition for my father’s retirement has been approved."

Ye Zi’an thought this was just as he and Lele had analyzed.

"That’s good too."

"By the way, I heard from the Emperor that Yangyang will be back soon."

Speaking of Yangyang, Ye Zi’an’s lips curled into a smile, "He’s coming back soon. If he doesn’t, your cousin-in-law will go out of the Capital City to find him."

"Cousin-in-law should be proud of having a son like Yangyang. He’s made it this far on his own in such a short time without relying on others."

"Pride comes with worry too. On the battlefield, swords and knives see no mercy."

"That’s true." If he went to the battlefield, Yunyun would surely worry sick too.

When the two returned to the State Duke of Defense’s manor, Old Mu had also returned.

He was currently doting on the brothers Luo Hongjun with great affection.

"Grandfather, teach me to fight even better. With the punches I know now, I can’t beat my father."

"Your father can’t beat me!"

"Really?"

"Of course!" Old Mu said smugly, "Even with one hand tied, he can’t beat me."

"Grandfather, you have to back me up then. When my dad hits me, you’ll support me." Luo Hongjun said this with eyes full of hope and a hint of timidity, which Old Mu didn’t notice.

"Don’t worry, with grandfather around, he won’t dare hit you."

Just then, the newly returned Luo Linhao, looking slightly stern, asked, "What have you broken of mine this time?"
