Chapter 88 Brother and sister meet
"Uncle San is going to live in the barracks?"
Mu Yunlong was startled at first, then overjoyed: "Okay, I'll go tell General Yiliang and the others to prepare a room for him."
"Yiliang and the others..."
Mu Xueyan was worried: "Will they blame Uncle San for what happened ten years ago? They think it was his negligence that led to the loss of Hancheng and the disastrous defeat of the Mu family army."
"There must be some grudges."
Mu Yunlong frowned slightly: "But don't worry, they are all veterans who have followed our grandfather in battle for many years, and they have deep feelings for the Mu family. They will not be unable to distinguish right from wrong and resent Third Uncle."
"That's good..."
Mu Xueyan naturally believed in her elder brother, and a huge weight of relief fell from her heart when she heard that.
"It's freezing cold in the northern border. I'm afraid Uncle San won't be able to adapt when he returns so suddenly."
Mu Yunlong was thoughtful and considered everything. "I'll go and help him clean up the room and light the kang. When he comes, you can bring them to the barracks to find me."
"Prepare a few more sets of clothes and bedding."
Mu Xueyan reminded with a smile: "Don't forget, there is also Aunt San."
"Cough cough."
Mu Yunlong was about to turn around when he paused and wanted to say something.
In fact, she is really not suitable to live in the barracks.
Thinking that it was my sister's suggestion, I thought about it again and again and finally swallowed it back.
-
Quanxiang Village is not far from the Mu family army’s base, only three miles away.
It was dark, windy and cold, with unmelted snow on the ground, making the road difficult to walk on.
Yan Jun harnessed the car and wanted to drive to the barracks.
Mu Xiao took the whip from his sister-in-law and sat on the front shaft of the carriage.
He has broken through the limits of mortals and reached the sixth level of Qi training. His body is extremely strong. Even in the cold weather, he wears a thin white coat and does not feel cold at all.
Yan Junqing was wrapped in a thick cotton coat, but was still shivering from the cold.
Seeing that her brother-in-law was determined, she followed his wishes, lifted the curtain and got into the carriage.
"Wheeze."
Hongyu was very smart. He knew the way to the barracks. He pulled the cart forward by himself, walking fast and steadily on the soft snow.
It only takes a moment to reach the three-mile distance.
When it saw the gate of the barracks, it neighed happily and ran straight to the tent.
-
Mu Yufu heard the sound of the carriage and walked out of the tent holding a lantern.
Even though she hadn't seen him for ten years, she recognized at a glance the man sitting in the front shaft, waving the whip and driving the carriage.
"Third brother."
A hot tear dripped from the corner of her eye. She couldn't contain her excitement. She ran over with the lantern in her hand and hugged him before the carriage stopped.
Mu Xiao's back stiffened. Even though he couldn't remember who she was, the call of "Third Brother" still made his heart beat faster.
"Uncle Three."
Mu Xueyan came over and asked with a smile, "Do you still remember Aunt Yufu? You have two sisters, one is the elder aunt, Mu Yufu, and the other is the younger aunt, Mu Yulin. They are both your biological sisters from the same mother."
"Yu Fu, Yu Lin"
Mu Xiao gently repeated the two names, and inexplicably felt that they were very familiar, as if he had said them thousands of times before.
"Third brother, you finally decided to come back."
"You have such a cruel heart. You left us alone and lived freely in the fairyland."
"Do you know how much we have suffered over the years?"
"If it weren't for Sister Yan, we would have died long ago. Even if you came back from the fairyland, you wouldn't be able to see us."
"."
Mu Yufu and Qin were indeed mother and daughter. They first hugged their eldest brother and cried bitterly. After crying enough, they beat and scolded him and gave him a good scolding.
Mu Xiao let her vent without any complaints. It was not until she had vented all the grievances and sadness in her heart and her arms were too tired to move, that she said with guilt, "I'm sorry."
"Who asked you to say sorry?"
Mu Yufu showed her fierceness. She raised her fist and hit him hard: "I finally came back, and you still dare to play with amnesia. If you don't hurry up and remember us, I will beat you to death."
"hehe."
Mu Xiao chuckled softly from his throat. For some reason, he suddenly felt that this scene was very familiar.
It seemed as if he had been beaten many times since he was a child.
Every time, he deliberately gave in to his younger sisters, allowing them to bully him and trying to make them happy.
"It's cold outside, let's find a warm place to talk."
Yan Junqing sat in the carriage, listening to the crying and noise outside. She thought it was about time, so she lifted the curtain and urged with a smile: "Yu Fu and Yan Jie'er, get in the car too. Let's go to the military camp together."
"okay."
Mu Xueyan and her mother were in sync with each other, so she agreed with a smile and jumped onto the carriage first.
Mu Yufu didn't want to be separated from her third brother so soon, so she wiped her tears and got into the carriage.
"Wheeze."
Hongyu neighed happily and pulled the cart into the camp without waiting for his master's orders.
~~
Mu Yunlong informed the three generals Yiliang, Li Qiu and Han Ming, and chose a suitable location in the camp to accommodate his third uncle and aunt.
As they had expected, Yiliang and the other two were shocked, but more happy than angry. They quickly accepted the fact that the former commander of the Mu family army had lost his memory and returned to the barracks.
The accommodations in the barracks are all large bunk beds.
A dozen soldiers slept together.
Generals who lead troops have slightly better living conditions and can have a house of their own.
Mu Yunlong chose a room adjacent to his own, tidied it up, spread out new bedding, and lit the stove on the kang.
Yiliang and others helped him with the work, but the house was not big and there was not much work to do.
The three grown men were wandering around the room, staring blankly, and none of them wanted to leave.
It's obvious that he just wants to watch the fun.
Mu Yunlong was embarrassed to chase them away, so he pretended not to notice their little thoughts and boiled a pot of hot water on the stove to make tea.
The hot water boiled and the sound of horse hooves could be heard outside the door.
Hongyu was familiar with the route and drove the cart to the door of his residence.
"Uncle San is here?"
Mu Yunlong was delighted, opened the door and went out to greet him.
The three Yiliang people were unwilling to be left behind and also scrambled to get out of the room.
~
Mu Xiao is still as handsome, gentle and elegant as he was ten years ago.
Ten years have passed without leaving any trace on his face.
In comparison, the three people from Yiliang are all old.
After ten years of hardships, the three generals all have white hair and the deep wrinkles on their faces are also witnessing the passage of time.
When the three saw Mu Xiao, they were all stunned and filled with mixed emotions.
"Uncle San, you're back. That's great."
Mu Yunlong didn't think much about it. When he saw Mu Xiao walking quickly towards him, the joy in his eyes was obvious.
"Uncle San, this is my eldest brother, your nephew, Mu Yunlong."
Mu Xueyan came out of the carriage with a smile and introduced the two people.
"You are my eldest brother's eldest son, Yunlong?"
Mu Xiao's eyes lit up. With just one glance, he found his own shadow in the heroic young man.
He looks similar to his older brother Mu Bai.
Mu Yunlong's eyebrows and eyes are exactly the same as his.
