Chapter 61 The Jiang Brothers Return Home

  Hearing what Emperor Qi Ming said, Jiang Hong and the others stood up slowly, with smiles in their eyes, but the expressions in the eyes of the ministers standing above the court hall were different.

  Although he knew that when he returned to Beijing this time, the emperor would definitely reward the three armies, but he didn't want to reward them so much.

Emperor Qi Ming didn't know what the ministers were thinking. After Jiang Hong and the others stood up, he continued to speak, "Jiang Aiqing, you have worked hard this time, and I have granted you a three-day holiday. In these few days, you have a good rest and accompany you. family."

   It’s been half a year since the battle. Jiang Hong really hasn’t seen his family for a long time. Hearing what Emperor Qi Ming said, the smile in his eyes became a little more sincere, and he bowed quickly, “Thank you, Your Majesty.”

   "Go, the rewards of the three armies, I will let people announce the decree soon."

   After Jiang Hong took several generals to thank him, he left the palace.

   "Brother, should we go home, mother must be waiting."

  Standing at the gate of the palace, Jiang Ren looked at Jiang Hong and said.

  Hearing what he said, Jiang Hong nodded, then looked at the people around him and said, "Meng Yi, you have worked hard this time, so take a good rest these few days."

   "Yes, General."

  Meng Yi looked honest and honest. Hearing Jiang Hong's words, he nodded with a smile, stepped forward to salute, and then turned and left.

   When he turned to leave, the smile on his face disappeared instantly. I don't know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that Jiang Hong seemed to be alienating him.

  If it was before, at this time, Jiang Hong would take him back to Jiang's house.

   "Brother, why did you let Meng Yi go back? Didn't you always let him go to our house in the past?"

   Jiang Yuan on the side looked at Meng Yi's leaving back, and couldn't help but look at Jiang Hong and speak.

  Hearing this, Jiang Hong's eyes twinkled, and he laughed softly, "Meng Yi used to be a loner, but now he has a wife and children, so naturally he wants to go home to be with his family."

   "Okay, let's go back quickly, mother and children are waiting."

   Seeing what Jiang Yuan wanted to ask, Jiang Hong spoke first, and then got on his horse immediately after speaking.

  Seeing this, Jiang Yuan and Jiang Ren also got on the horseback.

  The imperial decree had already been passed to the Jiang family, so at this moment, Mrs. Jiang and everyone in the Jiang family stood at the door.

   Mrs. Jiang's eyes were full of anticipation and excitement, and she looked at the intersection ahead from time to time.

Jiang Peihuan supported the old lady's hand, and felt that the old lady's hand was trembling slightly, she said softly, "Grandmother, count the time, father and the others should have just left the palace, otherwise you should go in and rest, and wait for the father and the others to come , I must go to Jutang to see you first."

   "I'm fine, I'll be waiting for your father and your two uncles here."

  Hearing Jiang Peihuan's words, the old lady shook her head, seeing the concern in her eyes, the old lady reached out and patted the back of her hand.

  Zhou Rongfang and Liu Xiu stood behind the old lady, looking forward with excitement.

  At this time, Jiang Sijin suddenly cheered, "The sound of horseshoes, there is the sound of horseshoes."

  As Jiang Sijin's voice fell, Jiang Hong and others also appeared at the intersection.

   "Grandmother, father and the others are back."

   "Just come back, just come back..."

  The old lady went straight down the steps, and Jiang Peihuan held her hand to move forward.

  When the three Jiang family brothers saw the old lady walking this way, the three brothers quickly got off their horses, and Jiang Hong strode forward with his two younger brothers.

  When he walked up to the old lady, Jiang Hong knelt down directly, "Mother, my son has returned safely with his two younger brothers."

   "Okay, okay... quick, get up."

  The old lady quickly reached out and grabbed Jiang Hong's hand.

   "Mother, you only see your elder brother, but can you see your younger son?"

   Seeing Mrs. Jiang full of tears, Jiang Ren, who was kneeling beside Jiang Hong, smiled and joked. Hearing this, the sadness in the air faded a bit.

   "Grandmother, I like the fact that Father and the others have returned safely. You should be happy."

  Jiang Peihuan who was on the side heard what his third uncle said, and hurriedly spoke.

  The old lady smiled and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and then said, "Huan'er, you are right, this is a happy event. My son's safe return is a happy event for my Jiang family."

   "Vice General Liu, you go and arrange to go out of the city to give porridge for three days in the name of our mansion, as a thank you to the Bodhisattva for blessing my son's safe return."

"yes."

  Lieutenant General Liu's eyes were also full of excitement. Hearing what the old lady said, he hurried away.

  At this time, Xue Yan walked up to the old lady and bowed to her, "Mother, my daughter-in-law did not pay what you entrusted, and brought Brother Hong and the two younger brothers home safely. Now, you can rest assured."

   "Master, the Jiang family is lucky to have a daughter-in-law like you."

  For her eldest daughter-in-law, the old lady is really satisfied. Internally, she can educate her children well and manage the family affairs well. Externally, she can go out with her husband.

  The old lady is also from a family of generals, so she understands the hardships of a woman on the battlefield better than anyone else.

  So when she saw Xue Yan at this moment, she was both moved and grateful.

   Xue Yan married into the Jiang family for more than 20 years, and has never had a quarrel with the old lady. She also regards the old lady as her mother from the bottom of her heart. So when she heard what the old lady said, she quickly said, "Mother is serious, it is also a daughter-in-law's luck to be able to marry into the Jiang family."

   "Sister-in-law has been conferred the title of first-rank wife by the emperor this time. We will salute when we see sister-in-law in the future."

  At this time, there was an unharmonious voice in the air.

  As soon as she heard this voice, Jiang Peihuan knew that her second aunt was being narrow-minded again.

Hearing Zhou Rongfang's words, Xue Yan frowned, but looking at the juniors in the mansion, and Jiang Yuan who had just returned, she still didn't say anything harsh. After glancing at Zhou Rongfang, Xue Yan just said lightly, "Second brother and sister Don't worry too much, we are all a family, so there is no need to see outsiders like that."

   "That's what I said, but after all, the eldest sister-in-law was personally appointed by the emperor. If outsiders find out, wouldn't it mean that people in our Jiang family didn't..."

   "If you don't tell me, how will outsiders know?"

For the sake of her second son, the old lady was not going to speak out at first, but seeing Zhou Rongfang's words getting harsher and harsher, she couldn't help it anymore, and before Zhou Rongfang could finish speaking, she directly interrupted her .

   What else Zhou Rongfang wanted to say, Jiang Yuan quickly stepped forward and took her hand, "Okay, let's talk about it later in the evening if you have anything to say, take me back to the garden to settle down first."

   While talking, Jiang Yuan looked at the old lady and Jiang Hong and said, "Mother, brother, I'll go back to the garden first, and our family will have dinner together at night."

   "Go and have a good rest."

  Seeing the tiredness in the eyes of the second son, the old lady softened her heart a bit and nodded.

  After Jiang Yuan's family left, the old lady looked at Jiang Hong and Jiang Ren and said, "You two should go back and get some rest, and come to Jutang for dinner tonight."
