Parents are busy farming

Zhang Gaoyi certainly understood the reluctance between the grandfather and grandson, but he could do nothing about it.

Since they understood his intentions, he didn't need to say anything more and turned to leave.

Old Lan patted Ye Zimeng's shoulder gently, then stood up and began to pack his luggage.

Zhang Gaoyi had just walked out of the military tent when he saw Ye Zihong walking towards him.

Ye Zihong seemed to have something to say to Zhang Gaoyi, but Zhang Gaoyi just nodded slightly and said, "Go in!"

Ye Zihong nodded, and waited until Zhang Gaoyi left before he walked into the tent.

The grandfather and grandson heard the noise and turned to look at Ye Zihong.

At this time, Ye Zihong is no longer the inexperienced recruit when he first entered the military camp, but a real soldier who has experienced countless life and death tests and has been through hundreds of battles.

There was determination and courage in his eyes, and he exuded a strong murderous intent and fighting spirit, as if he was ready to join the battle at any time.

Looking at his grandson in front of him, Old Lan felt both pity and pride in his heart.

He patted Ye Zimeng's shoulder gently, motioned for him to pack his things, and then led Ye Zihong out slowly.

Along the way, the two were silent, but the tacit understanding between them made people feel warm.

Finally, Elder Lan broke the silence and said softly, "Grandfather knows that you have a girl you like, and you are about to get married. Your eldest brother already has a child, and I don't know if I will be able to see you again in this life."

After hearing this, Ye Zihong felt sad. He consoled her, "This border area will be quiet for at least ten years. Why don't you come with us to the capital?"

Mr. Lan shook his head, indicating that he was unwilling to leave his hometown.

Ye Zihong continued, "Why don't you go live in Lujia Village for a while? The environment there is beautiful and the life is comfortable."

In fact, the Ye Lan family had always hoped that Old Lan could live with them, but Old Lan had deep feelings for this land and was always unwilling to leave.

However, as time went by, the living conditions here became worse and worse, which made Ye Zihong very worried.

Ye Zihong was thinking about personally escorting Mr. Lan to Lujia Village and arranging someone to take care of his daily life.

However, Elder Lan shook his head and said firmly: "Forget it. Under the current situation, I can't leave at all. I have to wait until I successfully train enough outstanding talents before I can leave with peace of mind. Otherwise, what will happen to this military camp?"

At this time, Ye Zimeng walked over slowly, his face full of sadness and sorrow.

Elder Lan patted Ye Zimeng on the shoulder and consoled her, "Okay, I know you are all good kids, but I really can't leave right now. Let me write to your parents as soon as I get a chance and ask them to come pick me up so I can enjoy my old age."

Ye Zihong nodded helplessly, knowing in his heart that this might be a long wait.

He wasn't sure if he would have the chance to see that day.

At the moment of parting, Ye Zihong hugged Mr. Lan tightly, his eyes blurred with tears.

Old Lan patted Ye Zihong's back gently, comforting him not to be sad.

Unlike the scene of separation of grandparents and grandchildren, the other people in the vanguard camp were very excited.

A master smiled and patted Hong Yujie on the shoulder, saying, "We will be going to your territory soon. When we get to the capital, if you have time, would you consider hosting us?"

Hong Yujie quickly smiled and said, "Of course, the masters have saved my life more than once. Not to mention treating them to a meal, I will even buy a house for them to live in!"

Another master said disdainfully: "Tsk, you don't know! After we entered the capital, we also had a place to stay. Zifen built a Fukelai there. We have roots!"

Hong Yujie nodded immediately, with a glimmer of admiration in his eyes, "Sister Zifen is amazing, but when we get to Beijing, I will still take the masters to different places to eat delicious food."

"Haha, you are a very sensible kid! Let's deal with it." Everyone laughed.

Just then, Zhang Gaoyi walked in and heard the last sentence.

He thought for a moment, and said solemnly, "We may not be allowed to move freely after entering Beijing, so we may need to find another opportunity."

After hearing this, the smiles on everyone's faces gradually faded. Although they were disappointed, they did not seem angry.

A master said, "We guessed it, it's just a joke, don't take it seriously."

Zhang Gaoyi nodded. He looked at the masters and said softly, "For now, we only need to bring enough food and your personal belongings to Beijing. The rest can be left in the barracks. After all, the court will definitely give us some rewards for going to Beijing this time. As for where we will return to in the future, that is still unknown, but we have made a name for ourselves now. I believe that no matter where we go in the future, we will no longer be looked down upon as before. So..."

He paused and continued, "I think we should focus more on future development rather than dwelling on the past."

"Alright! We know what you mean. I guess Zifen would do the same here. We support your decision."

One of the masters patted Zhang Gaoyi on the shoulder to express his understanding and support.

Zhang Gaoyi looked at everyone with gratitude, then turned around to pack his things.

In fact, he didn't have many belongings, because he had already sent someone to send the money distributed in the military camp back home, and repeatedly told his family not to bother Ye Zifen.

When Ye Zihong returned to the camp, the entire vanguard camp had already prepared all its supplies.

Zhang Gaoyi did not wait any longer and went directly to find General Zhenbei. With the token, he escorted the enemy generals into prison cars one by one, one for each.

Then, the vanguard battalion started to set off.

In fact, there was only half an hour left before sunset, but they did this to let the person who came to announce the decree see how much they valued the imperial edict.

After the generals of the entire camp saw them off and left the camp, General Zhenbei personally led his lieutenants to sort out the supplies left behind by the vanguard camp.

During the sorting process, they kept exclaiming in amazement because they found that the items that Ye Zifen sent to the Vanguard Battalion were of excellent quality.

Those cotton-padded clothes and tents were all made of sheepskin, and were even better quality than the enemy tents they had captured.

In addition, there was sufficient food, which was pure grain, rice without any impurities.

Since arriving at the frontier, they had never eaten rice without sand added, and now seeing the rice in the vanguard camp, their hearts were filled with envy and jealousy.

I'm glad that these people have a conscience.
