Chapter 182 Sleepless Night
He asked Jianfeng to search for coal mines and other minerals. He believed that they would be found soon, and by then, a large amount of money would be recorded in his account. It is easy to become the richest man in Daqian Country. The world's richest man is just around the corner.
The carriage moved forward quickly. Although it was a little bumpy, it was much better than when it came.
Passing by a city, noises and laughter could be heard from afar.
Carriages crossed the streets, and people were seen celebrating the victory of the battle on the streets. This battle severely damaged the vitality of Daliang and Dachang, and the border was stabilized in a short period of time. At the same time, they all received relief from the Zhao family, and no one would starve to death this winter.
When Lin Xiaofan saw this, he also smiled with satisfaction. He was happy for these people from the bottom of his heart.
……
Three days passed by in a flash, and the carriage finally arrived at Lijiazhuang.
On the way, he was recognized by a county magistrate and kept him for half a day. Otherwise, it would have arrived yesterday.
As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the village, they saw Liu Shishi and Liu Yanyan passing by.
Liu Sisi wore a big coat with several pieces of clothing underneath. It looked chubby like a penguin.
Liu Shishi wore a red cotton coat and carried two bags of food in her hands. It seemed that she was going to Li Zheng's home.
Seeing a carriage coming this way, the two of them stopped immediately and looked this way together.
Could it be that my husband is back?
Normally, there aren't many carriages coming, so maybe the man in this car is really a man.
However, my husband has only been on the front line for a few days, so he shouldn't be back so soon, right? Dad also said before that sometimes a battle would last half a year.
After thinking about it, I saw a head popping out of the car, it was Lin Xiaofan. Seeing the two girls, the smile on his face could no longer be suppressed.
In the past few days, he has been missing his wife day and night. Moreover, when he came back this time, he was returning to his hometown with great honor, and he felt indescribably excited.
Seeing that it was Lin Xiaofan who was coming, the two women were stunned for a moment, as if they didn't think it was real.
Soon, the expressions on the two women's faces were replaced by excitement.
Husband, my husband is really back! A tear streaked across Liu Sisi's face.
In the past few days, there has been no news about their husbands on the battlefield, which makes them sleepless at night, and their minds are full of worries.
Now that Lin Xiaofan is back safely, how can he not be excited?
They didn't come back to their senses until the carriage stopped in front of them.
"Sister Shishi, Sisi!"
Liu Yanyan emerged from the carriage and waved.
"Shishi, Sisi, I'm back."
Lin Xiaofan got off the carriage, wiped the tears on Liu Sisi's face, and touched her head:
"Sisi, don't worry. Am I okay? If you don't believe me, just touch me."
As he said this, Lin Xiaofan pretended to move his hands and feet. Seeing his funny look, Liu Sisi laughed out loud.
"Husband, I haven't seen you for a few days and you have lost weight."
Liu Shishi looked Lin Xiaofan up and down, with distress in her eyes.
On the battlefield where we are fighting day and night, it would be difficult to get a good night's sleep, right? And I heard from my father that only dry and hard food can be eaten on the battlefield. Although he is well fed, my husband must be very unaccustomed to eating fine grains at home all the time.
"I miss you more than food and tea, so I lost weight."
Lin Xiaofan hugged Liu Shishi and whispered, making Liu Shishi's face turn red.
After struggling for a long time, Lin Xiaofan heard a growling sound from his stomach.
Since it was inconvenient to carry food, they only ate dry food and dried meat on the way. Lin Xiaofan had been eating for ten days, but he really didn't want to eat, so he was hungry for a whole day, waiting to go home and eat something delicious.
"Husband, you haven't eaten yet? Let's eat first."
Liu Shishi spoke, fearing that Lin Xiaofan would be hungry.
"Okay, it's been a long time since I tasted Shishi's craftsmanship."
Lin Xiaofan also smiled and said.
Entering the hospital, I saw Li Xiaoqian and Li Xiaoran squatting on the ground, laughing from time to time. Even when several people came back, these two people didn't notice.
When he got closer, Lin Xiaofan discovered that there was a kitten sitting between the two of them. The kitten is only about four or five months old. It has snow-white fur and big amber eyes, and looks very cute.
Perhaps because Lin Xiaofan was getting closer, the kitten shrank back in fear and was a little shy. Seeing this appearance, Li Xiaoqian and Li Xiaoran turned around and caught Lin Xiaofan's eyes.
Seeing the person coming, Li Xiaoran was stunned for a moment, and then ran up directly.
"Husband, you are finally back."
A farewell is better than a wedding. The longing that has been suppressed for so many days blooms at this moment.
After a long time, the two separated. Liu Sisi and Liu Yanyan had already gone to prepare meals.
Lin Xiaofan glanced at Li Xiaoqian next to him, and saw a smile on the latter's face. But when he saw Lin Xiaofan looking this way, he quickly put away his smile and turned his head.
When Lin Xiaofan saw this, he shook his head slightly and ignored him.
"By the way, this bag of grain..."
Lin Xiaofan looked at the food that had been brought back intact, feeling a little confused.
"Oh, this!"
Liu Shishi slapped her forehead and then remembered. I originally wanted to deliver the food to Li Zheng's house, but when I got excited, I forgot about it.
"A family at the end of the village had rats in their granary a few days ago and the food was spoiled. They came to us to borrow food. Because of this, we raised two kittens."
Liu Shishi opened her mouth to explain.
At some point, a second kitten appeared close by.
This cat is also white, looks bigger, and is not afraid of animals. When he saw Lin Xiaofan, he called out twice, and then rubbed him a few more times.
"so cute."
Lin Xiaofan knelt down and couldn't help but touch the kitten's head. Unexpectedly, the kitten lay down on the ground and rolled over twice. The funny look made everyone laugh.
"Just in time, I'm going to visit Li Zheng's house, and I'll deliver these grains there."
Lin Xiaofan stood up. He still wanted to talk to Li Zheng about the next start of construction.
"Well, husband, come back early, we will wait for you to eat. Later, we also want to hear your stories on the battlefield."
Lin Xiaofan smiled:
"When I come back, I will tell you how I led [-] people to repel the enemy's army of [-] people."
Liu Shishi nodded. If it were before, she would only smile lightly, thinking that Lin Xiaofan was bragging again.
But now, she has no doubt that Lin Xiaofan has this ability.
Li Zheng lives at the head of the village, only a few steps away from his home. Maybe it was too cold and the old man didn't blow the wind at the end of the village.
"Bang bang bang!"
Lin Xiaofan knocked on the door of Li Zheng's house.
"Who is it, come here now."
Li Zheng responded with some annoyance, as if he was woken up from his sleep.
"Uncle De, it's me, Lin Xiaofan."
Lin Xiaofan shouted outside the door. Immediately, the footsteps inside the door got a little faster.
"Xiao Fan, you're back so early, come in and sit down! How's it going? Is everything going well?"
Li Zheng looked at Lin Xiaofan, who had changed a bit, and hurriedly called him in.
After experiencing the baptism of a war, Lin Xiao became calmer than before and looked much more mature.
"Everything went well. The coalition army of [-] people was defeated by us."
Lin Xiaofan smiled.
"Okay, it seems that Qingzhou is really full of talents!"
Li Zheng nodded and then continued:
"By the way, Xiaofan. In the days since you left, great changes have taken place in Gaode Town."
