Chapter 409: Take Good Care of Your Wife (2) (2/2)

He Changdi jumped out of the warm pen with his usual cold expression and exchanged a few words with the welcome party before personally escorting Chu Lian to her tent.

Once Chu Lian had changed into a proper set of clothes and become presentable again, she came out to personally greet all of the friends who had been worried for her.

Since Chu Lian was still living in the female camp, it wasn’t good for He Changdi to stay there, so he returned to his own camp and tent after giving Wenqing and Wenlan some instructions.

Once he entered his tent, he could hear Xiao Hongyu and the others talking.

Captain Guo and Zhang Mai hurried over after seeing He Sanlang enter the tent.

Captain Guo patted his shoulders, “It’s good that Sister-in-Law is safe. Don’t think too much about all of this.”

Zhang Mai chipped in with his own words of comfort.

The two of them were much older than He Changdi and Xiao Hongyu, so they thought more than the others.

Chu Lian was a woman after all. After getting kidnapped like that, even if she had her identity as an Honoured Lady to keep some from talking, there was plenty that other people could say about a woman taken out to the wilds by a pack of rogues…

If rumours like those affected her reputation, it wouldn’t be good for the young couple.

Captain Guo was afraid that He Sanlang would overthink things.

He Sanlang was a little dumbfounded, which showed in his expression as he looked at his two older brothers. He replied helplessly, “What are you thinking about? Why would I even think like that?”

When Captain Guo heard his response and saw that he seemed open-minded, he finally set down his worries. “You brat. I’m not worrying for you. Alright, it’s good as long as you understand. Sister-in-Law is a good lady, you had better not mistreat her.”

During these years of peace, what kind of noble lady would come all the way out here to this desolate north and suffer through so much for the sake of her husband?

Although Honoured Lady Jinyi’s words and actions showed maturity beyond her years, she was still a young lady who hadn’t even reached the age of sixteen.

“Thank you for your concern, brothers. But you’ve worried too much for this matter. Rest assured, I’ve already ordered my men to seal their lips shut. Not many people know about what happened other than my trusted subordinates.” He Changdi was usually meticulous with his actions. Before leaving the main camp to look for Chu Lian, he had already settled the matters at hand in the army.

Since he had the responsibility of being Chu Lian’s husband, he couldn’t let allow her reputation to be besmirched.

Captain Guo nodded in admiration. He was also someone who would protect his wife with his life, so he understood why He Sanlang had done so.

“Relax, I’ll take care of everything else in the army. I won’t let anyone spread the news.”

When He Sanlang heard this, he made the rare gesture of bowing deeply to Captain Guo.

The corners of Zhang Mai’s lips lifted up. “What are you being so formal for between us brothers?”

Captain Guo burst out into laughter, “Let him bow, we deserve this gesture! Damn brat, take good care of your wife from now on.”
