“My dear disciples, how can I discuss these things with you? Let alone not having the time to talk, even if I do have the time, I can’t share them. They’re military secrets!”

Xiumei pouted, knowing that Xu Zhengyong was right, but she was still a bit unsatisfied.

Xu Zhengyong quickly complained to Wei Ruo, “Ruoruo, see how Meimei’s temper is growing bigger. If she continues like this, who will marry her?” Xiumei retorted, “Who wants to get married! You can’t utter a single good word!”

“Alright, you two stop bickering. It’s enough that Brother Xiaoyong is back safe, I will unpack his bandage later and apply some medicine,” Wei Ruo promptly stepped in to mediate.

Mother Xu said crossly, “Xiaoyong, Meimei, you are both older than the young miss, but together you are not half as mature as her. How can you protect and serve the young miss in the future like this?”

Xu Zhenyong and Xiumei instantly quieted down.

Wei Ruo asked Xu Zhengyong, “Brother Xiaoyong is it okay for you to be here in Government City?”

“Don’t worry, because of my injury, I got ten days of leave, being here allows me to be with you and to lend a hand,” Xu Zhengyong replied.

Xiumei quickly said, “In your condition what help can you offer? Just rest properly, so you don’t end up crippled and have to call me ‘senior sister’.”

Xu Zhengyong wanted to retort, but he shut up after seeing his mother’s warning look.

If he wanted to stay in Government City for a few more days, he better behave. If he upset his mother, his father would surely send him back to Xingshan County.

“Alright now, it’s rare for us to be together as a family. Let’s put all work aside and have a nice dinner tonight,” Wei Ruo suggested.

“Great!” Xu Zhengyong was most excited.

He could have dinner with Ruoruo and Meimei again! Just like when they were young!

So that evening, they had dinner together on their estate.

During the meal, Xu Zhengyong enthusiastically recounted his recent surprise attack on the Japanese pirates.

In the end, Xu Zhengyong indignantly said, “Do you know what these heartless bastards said when they were captured? They actually said that they also suffered from a natural disaster, had no food and had to come and rob us!”

Xu Zhengyong was extremely angry, “These bastards! If you’re hungry, can’t you find another way? Always thinking about stealing from others! Bastards, I will slash one each time I see one!”

Mother Xu reminded him from the side, “Xiaoyong, don’t use foul language in front of the young miss!”

Wei Ruo said, “Don’t worry, nanny. Those sons of bitches are not worth anything. Brother Xiaoyong did well by cursing them.”

Xiumei agreed, “The young miss is right, we should maintain our etiquette with others, but not with people like them!”

Now that Wei Ruo had spoken, Mother Xu didn’t say anymore.

Then Xiumei asked Xu Zhengyong, “Is there a chance for you to be promoted again for this merit?”

Xu Zhengyong didn’t know, “Mr. Wei said he would report it honestly. But how

I will be promoted, he can’t decide.”

Wei Mingting’s power was limited. Anything above the general needed to be approved by higher-ups, and Xu Zhengyong had just been promoted to deputy general, which was an exceptional promotion by the Prince. So it was indeed difficult to get another promotion in a short time.

Wei Ruo encouraged him, “Don’t worry, brother Xiaoyong. You have already done very well. Don’t stress about it, what’s yours won’t run away!”

Wei Ruo knew that Xu Zhengyong’s eagerness to be promoted as quickly as possible was because of her, so she didn’t want to put any pressure on him.
