Happiness System

Fu Xiuwen's injuries were not serious. After escorting the old lady, his wife and children back to the village, he followed his father to the academy.

A few years ago, there was a rumor that the major general had suffered a defeat and fled. This was half true and half false.

In fact, he was defeated, but Hu Jun didn't get any good results either.

At that time they received news that the general was on his way back. The major general in Liaocheng had already made arrangements. It would not be a big deal to lose the main general for a while, so they took the opportunity to hide.

The two men led their elite troops to the Hu people and killed the leader of the Hu people.

In this case, Boss Hu's brothers and sons will definitely be busy fighting for power, and will definitely not have time to plunder in Mo Nan in the short term.

Of course, there will definitely be small groups of Hu people causing trouble in the south of the desert. Although they cannot cause any big trouble, they are enough to disrupt the south of the desert and allow those bad guys to take advantage of the opportunity to fish in troubled waters. Therefore, the south of the desert is still not safe in winter.

After Qin Yunxi returned to the farm and was busy for a few days, she finally settled down and relaxed.

The Qin family members fled the imperial capital in a panic.

Fortunately, their properties had been mostly dealt with years ago, otherwise they would have had to give up those things with great reluctance.

It was unknown how many years would pass before they returned to the imperial capital. The imperial capital was now like a muddy sewage tank. They were not even small fish in it. At best, they were just small shrimps that could be slaughtered at will.

If those things are not dealt with, it will be hard to say who they belong to when they return to the imperial capital. Even if they can produce the title deeds, they may not be able to figure it out clearly.

So it’s not that they don’t want to leave their property to their descendants to provide them with an alternative, it’s just that they have no other choice.

Because they left in such a hurry, and Yang Nianji happened to be out with the caravan, the Qin family could not hire an escort and could only follow the fugitives for a while.

Only when he arrived in Cannes did he hire a bodyguard at a high price, and then he began to move quickly towards the south of the desert.

Their journey was not smooth. After only two days of traveling from Cannes, they encountered two groups of ambushing mountain people and a group of bandits.

Most of the escorts were injured, so they had to find a nearby town to rest for two days. Then they finally met up with a passing caravan and paid them some silver, and the caravan was willing to take them for a while. However, they encountered freezing rain within two days.

This delay lasted another five or six days, and the road was finally open, but the road was slippery and the journey was slow.

When they reached the southern part of the desert, they encountered a snowstorm. The whole family got lost in the wind and snow, and no one knew where they were.

The south of the desert is vast and sparsely populated, and the road they were taking didn't even show a village!

Fortunately, the escort had traveled all over the country and had a wide range of experience. He led them to a sheltered valley in the mountains and stayed there for two days, helping them survive the snowstorm.

Fortunately, they brought a lot of food with them, otherwise they would have had a restless two days and might have had to continue moving forward in the wind and snow to find a town where they could stay.

In particular, not long after leaving the col, they met an old acquaintance.

Of course, this old acquaintance is not a friendly force. This family is also the enemy of the Qin family and they fell into the same trouble as Qin Yueyue’s ex-husband’s family.

I heard that they spent money to choose the place of exile themselves, and I don’t know why this family came to Mo Nan.

When the Qin family met them, the whole family was mourning.

The escort went up to find out what happened. It turned out that the family had gotten separated in the snowstorm, and no one knew how many groups the large group had split into.

The wave they encountered had barely ten people, not including the two lying on the ground who were either frozen to death or starved to death.

After hearing the report from the escort, the Qin family felt heartbroken and relieved. Of course, it was impossible for them to sympathize with the situation, nor to offer any help!

The two families have been at odds for more than ten years. It's good enough that they don't add insult to injury. How could they possibly help in times of need?

Back then, when Qin's father resigned from his official position, this family often criticized his family!

No matter how this family cursed the Qin family for being cold-blooded and heartless, the Qin family still left without looking back.

There was no village in front and no shop behind, and the blizzard buried the road, so it was extremely difficult for them to walk.

When they saw the shadow of the building, they encountered the Hu people before they could even shed tears.

Xiao Yu came here to chase the Hu people. He accidentally saw Qin's mother He Youxin and thought she looked familiar, so he asked a few more questions.

When he learned that they were members of the Qin family, his first thought was that he had saved Qin Yunxi's parents and family, so he was going to make a small fortune again!

You can't blame him, Mo Nan is just too poor!

The General's Mansion had just received news that the General's wife's brother, who worked in the Ministry of War, had also fallen and been exiled.

The exile of my maternal grandfather's family meant that no one would speak for them in the court anymore, and they would not even have the annual military funds of 200,000 taels of silver!

In addition, the fortune teller predicted that this year will be even more difficult than last year, which is undoubtedly adding insult to injury!

Qin Yunxi was so quick to act that his first thought was to take advantage of her.

The Qin family didn't know what Xiao Yu was thinking. They only heard that the man who saved them was the Major General of Mo Nan, who was acquainted with their daughter/sister. They felt relieved and grateful.

It can be said that it is both lucky and unfortunate for the Qin family to meet Xiao Yu.

They perfectly avoided towns and villages along the way. In fact, the place where Xiao Yu rescued them was less than ten miles away from Baicheng, and less than a mile away was a cleared official road!

It only took them one hour from the time they recognized each other to the time Xiao Yu cleaned up the bodies of the Hu people and returned to Baicheng.

In addition to the Qin family, there were a dozen injured escorts, and it was inconvenient for Xiao Yu to bring them all back to the general's mansion, so he had to send them to Qin Yunxi's house in Baicheng.

It is said that Qin Yunxi and his friends have never lived in this house before. Jiang Weixiong only stays here for a few days when he comes to Baicheng for business.

The house was empty, with only three or five guards looking after the yard and a pair of old servants cleaning the house.

Fortunately, after the Qin family's servants were streamlined, nearly twenty people were left and brought to Mo Nan.

Qin Yuebai showed the jade pendant that Qin Yunxi left for them and was let in. In less than half an hour, the small courtyard where they were staying temporarily was cleaned up and the banquet that had been ordered outside was also delivered.

Although the real owner of this house has not yet moved in, all necessary supplies are available, even a lot of staple foods.

The Qin family had been through a lot along the way, so once they settled down in such a comfortable environment, they were no longer in a hurry to reunite with their family in Heilong County.

Qin Yunxi also sent people to keep an eye on the Qin family's movements. He was horrified to learn that his family members were lost in the snowstorm.

It was she who encouraged her parents and family to come to Mo Nan. If anything happened to them in Mo Nan, she would be held responsible!

As soon as the snowstorm stopped, Fu Xiuwen took all the manpower he could spare and the Fu family members to go out to look for people.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Yu took the lead!

Just like Xiao Yu's first thought, when Qin Yunxi learned that his family was rescued by the Major General, his first thought was that he was going to lose money again!

Fortunately, money is just a number to her. As long as it is not too outrageous, for the sake of her family's safety, she is willing to pay the money that will be used on the soldiers in Mo Nan.

It was already mid-February, and two and a half months had passed since the Qin family left the imperial capital, which took twice as long as they had originally planned to arrive.

At this time, the winter in the south of the desert was about to end. Due to the struggle for the position of the Hu people's leader, the invasion and unrest of this winter ended early.

Yang Nianqiu might give birth at any time. Even if the environment in Zhuangzi was comfortable, its medical conditions could never compare to those in Baicheng.

When Qin Yunxi just received the news that the Qin family had arrived in Baicheng safely, Gao Liyang temporarily ended his work and hurried to the farm to pick up his wife to take her back to Baicheng for delivery.

When he arrived, Qin's second sister-in-law Zeng Shiyun and Qin's youngest aunt Guan Jing also received the news and rushed over, preparing to go to Baicheng with Qin Yunxi to play for two days.

The road to Baicheng was already open, and Qin Yunxi had made preparations in advance. This time she brought her two children, the old lady, and Fu Qingyue with her.

Someone prepared some simple food for Gao Liyang and his men, and soon the group set off for Baicheng.

"Sister Xi, my sister Xi!"

After all, He Youxin was just an ordinary woman who had never seen any major storms. She was very well protected when she was in her mother's home. After she got married, although her husband's family was a little rigid, the population was simple and there were not many things to do.

The bloodshed she had seen along the way had already broken down her psychological defenses, especially after she had escaped death several times. When she saw her daughter again, she suddenly felt reassured.

"Mother, it's my daughter's fault. She didn't think things through and the tired mother got frightened."

Qin Yunxi held the beautiful woman who was crying in his arms, his face full of helplessness.

What's even more helpless is Qin Yuebai next to him. Although he is a weak scholar, he is still a tall and strong man. Doesn't he feel more secure than his eldest daughter who has a delicate appearance?

"Sister-in-law only has Sister Xi in her eyes, and can't tolerate anyone else at all!"

Zeng Shiyun and Guan Jing felt a sense of empathy when they saw He Youxin crying. Before their tears came out, they saw the father and daughter had the same expressions and couldn't help laughing.

"Look at you two, all wrapped up like bears, who can recognize you?"

He Youxin rarely loses her composure and feels embarrassed when her sisters-in-law make fun of her.

Seeing that her mother had controlled her emotions, Qin Yunxi led her children to meet their grandparents. After letting her greet the old lady, she supported her and led everyone into the inner room.

Except for Fu Yuhan who was young and didn't recognize people very well, everyone else knew each other, so there was no need for special introductions.

He Youxin didn't know that her daughter and others would come, so she had dinner early.

After entering the inner room and realizing what was happening, he immediately asked his eldest daughter-in-law to go downstairs and prepare meals.

Qin Yunxi stopped her and said, "It's not curfew yet in the city. When I entered the city just now, my daughter had already asked someone to buy food. It's been several months, and the smell of food on the street is still unforgettable. It's not easy to come here, so we have to make arrangements first."

"You're the only one who's greedy!" He Youxin nodded but didn't say anything.
