Seeing Pomegranate's slender body disappearing through the door, Cao Mao turned his eyes and looked at the house he was in.

Cao Mao's mother was Cao Cao's concubine.

But being implicated by him, his mother was also left out.

The residences of Cao Cao's other wives are not all mansions, but they are not as shabby as Cao Mao's.

There are only a few rooms, and there are only two servants available for order, except for the personal servant Shiliu.

Just when Cao Mao fell into memory, Pomegranate over there had already walked out of the house accompanied by a woman.

"Mao'er, you're back!"

The woman is about 40 years old. Although there are fine wrinkles on her cheeks, she still has a charming charm. It can be seen at a glance that she must have been a beauty when she was young.

She is Cao Mao's mother, Zhao Ji.

"Mao'er, during these days you went out with your father, have you ever suffered?"

Zhao Ji held Cao Mao's hand, her eyes were full of concern.

Cao Mao's heart warmed, and those past memories gradually emerged in his mind.

In the past, Cao Mao was arrogant and rude, and was reprimanded by Cao Cao many times.

But Zhao Ji stood on his side unconditionally and pleaded with Cao Cao for him.

Cao Maoneng later became a playboy, and Zhao Ji absolutely has an unshirkable responsibility.

Seeing Zhao Ji worried about herself,

Cao Mao laughed,
"Don't worry, mother, I didn't endure hardships, but I also helped my father make a lot of military exploits."

"Really?"

A look of disbelief appeared on Zhao Ji's face.

Pomegranate on the side laughed disapprovingly.

In their view, Cao Mao is thankful if he doesn't cause trouble, how could he still make military exploits.

"If mother doesn't believe it, you can ask them."

Cao Mao turned around with a smile and pointed at Yanyun Shibaqi standing outside the door.

It was only then that Zhao Ji noticed that there were [-] strangely dressed men standing outside the door.

"they are……"

"They are my followers."

Cao Mao beckoned Cao Da and others to come in.

"This subordinate has seen Madam!"

The 18 people said in unison.

Instead, Zhao Ji was taken aback.

"Cao Da, tell my mother what I have done."

Cao Mao ordered.

"Yes, son."

Cao Da then started with how Cao Mao beheaded Zhang Xiu, and kept talking about how he led his army to capture Shouchun in the end.

After listening to the whole process, Zhao Ji and Shiliu beside him opened their mouths in surprise.

"This...how is this possible?"

Zhao Ji stammered, her eyes filled with shock.

Is this still her son who often gets into trouble?

"Maoer, you have finally grown up."

After a brief shock, Zhao Ji returned to normal.

Looking at Cao Mao lovingly.

Although she was a little surprised, in her opinion, her son was the best man in the world, and it was reasonable for him to be able to make such achievements.

Listening to her heart-warming words, Cao Mao was also slightly moved.

Combining Cao Mao's memory, he knows that the woman in front of him can be said to be the one who loves him the most in the world.

"Mother, don't worry, I will let you live a good life sooner or later.

Our family no longer has to live in such a small mansion. "

Cao Mao is confident and authentic.

"As long as I can be with you, Maoer, my mother has no other expectations."

Zhao Ji smiled in relief.

She looked at the sky and found that it was almost time, so she said,

"You haven't eaten yet, Pomegranate, hurry up and prepare meals."

"Yes, ma'am."

Pomegranate hurriedly got up and left.

Cao Mao suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said,
"By the way, I invited a guest to our house for dinner today."

Zhao Ji was a little strange, but she didn't think too much about it.
"Okay, that's right, knowing the news of your return, mother guessed that Yingjie and Feng Yang would come over today."

When Zhao Ji finished speaking, she heard excited voices coming from outside the door.

"Brother Mao!"

"we are coming!"

Cao Mao raised his head and looked out the door, only to see two teenagers walking in excitedly, greeting him.

These two teenagers are called Cao Yingjie and Cao Fengyang respectively. They are descendants of the Cao family branch, and they are Cao Mao's best playmates.

Seeing the two friends, Cao Mao smiled slightly,
"Yingjie, Feng Yang, you are here."

Cao Yingjie stepped forward, patted Cao Mao's shoulder heavily, and said excitedly,
"Brother Mao, you can do it. I've heard people say how you defeated Qiao Rui's [-] army in Shouchun!"

Cao Fengyang on the side glared at him,
"Yingjie, pay attention to your attitude. Brother Mao is now a general."

"Fuck you, Feng Yang, if you dare to talk nonsense again, be careful that I will tear your mouth apart."

Cao Mao pretended to be angry.

"Ha ha!"

The two burst out laughing.

Cao Mao welcomed the two into the hall, and after they sat down, the two couldn't wait to ask about what happened on the battlefield.

Cao Mao was helpless.

He had no choice but to repeat what he had just said to Zhao Ji and Shiliu.

After the two listened, they exclaimed again.

"Brother Mao, oh no, I should call you Brother Su Lie now.

I don't know when, the two of us will be able to fight the enemy on the battlefield like you. "

Cao Yingjie said enviously.

"Come on, Yingjie, you and I don't have the strength and courage like Brother Su Lie."

Cao Fengyang had a clear view of the two of them's own situation.

Cao Yingjie immediately looked disappointed after hearing this.

As Cao Fengyang said, the two of them have neither prominent background nor talent.

For offshoot children like them, the best treatment is to be arranged to be a small official in the government.

Seeing that the two of them were a little downcast, Cao Mao chuckled lightly,
"You don't need to be discouraged, in fact, I plan to ask you to come out and help me."

The eyes of the two people brightened, and they said quickly,
"Brother Su Lie, just open your mouth, as long as the two of us can help, you will never refuse!"

"Don't worry, we'll talk about it after dinner."

Cao Mao smiled.

While the three were chatting, Cao Da also took Jia Xu from the barracks according to Cao Mao's instructions.

Cao Mao introduced Jia Xu to Zhao Ji and others.

Soon the food was served.

On weekdays, Zhao Ji and Pomegranate eat very light meals, with little oil or water.

But this time, in order to celebrate Cao Mao's triumphant return, Zhao Ji also spent a lot of money to buy a table of meat.

"Su Lie, eat more meat."

Zhao Ji would hold vegetables for Cao Mao from time to time, her cheeks brimming with the brilliance of her mother.

This deepened the respect and love in Cao Mao's heart a lot.

After drinking and eating, pomegranate added tea for several people.

"Brother Su Lie, what exactly do you want us to do for you?"

Cao Yingjie said impatiently.

Cao Fengyang was also full of longing.

For young people, their biggest dream is to make contributions like Cao Mao.

Jia Xu was also a little curious.

He didn't know what Cao Mao planned to ask the two teenagers to help.

Cao Mao stretched out an index finger, tapped on the table, and smiled faintly.

"I'm going to open a tavern."
