I have a mall space system, raise the baby first and then fight

Back at the palace, Shen Lianxin hugged Gu Chengan and Gu Chengjing and kissed them again and again. Although both of them were big boys, they did not reject Shen Lianxin's intimacy. In their hearts, their mother's love was always the most desired.

Aunt Liu and the second and third wives came to visit one after another. In addition to their concern, they also had a glimmer of hope.

"It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back!! It's so good that you're back!" Aunt Liu wiped her tears.

"Xiao An and Xiao Jing, don't worry. Your mother will definitely find a way to rescue Cheng Xin."

Gu Chengan nodded. Although he was not close to them, he was not unfamiliar with the people in the palace. He also had a deep relationship with his third uncle Gu Dinglian in the military camp. Gu Dinglian had been with the three of them for a long time.

"Thank you grandma for your concern!" Gu Chengan and Gu Chengjing bowed respectfully.

There was a gleam in Li Yuner's eyes, and she seemed to want to say something but stopped herself.

Gu Chengan was eating the pastries brought by July and was really hungry.

"Eat slowly!! I asked the kitchen to prepare a table full of delicious dishes. Don't be too full and unable to eat after a while."

"Mom! Don't worry, I can eat a whole cow!!" Gu Cheng'an grew up in a mountain village, where rules are the worst, but Shen Lianxin never restricts him in this regard, because she herself doesn't like these rules and often has no rules.

As for children, it is enough for them to be healthy, happy and upright. These empty formalities are unnecessary. If you can be a superior person, naturally no one will dare to say anything, because the rules are set by superior people. If you can only be an inferior person, it is in your own home anyway, and no one will care.

Seeing Gu Chengan's look, everyone naturally didn't say much. He had been well-behaved all his life, but now he felt that this was good and he had a feeling of freedom.

Aunt Liu was moved. She originally thought that people from the mountain village didn't know the rules and looked down on them. But now, regardless of whether they followed the rules or not, warmth was enough. Moreover, not following their so-called rules would not hinder their abilities. So, what was she struggling with in this life?

Li Yun'er watched Gu Cheng'an enjoying his meal and didn't dare to interrupt him. But Gu Chengjing had always been a good judge of vision, and he understood it after a moment's thought.

"Aunt San, our father asked us to hide in Jiangcheng before the war. So we did not participate in the Battle of Jiangcheng. Uncle San followed our father to fight. We did not find a chance to get out until more than two months after the war ended and our stored food was eaten up." Gu Chengjing spoke. He did not want to and could not lie. He had to tell them the truth because the details in it might help them find Gu Dinglian's whereabouts.

Li Yun'er felt disappointed when she heard this. In the Battle of Jiangcheng, the Zhenbei Army was almost wiped out. Shen Lianxin finally arrived at the end of the war and saw Gu Dingbei for the last time, but there was no news from Gu Dinglian.

Even Gu Chengan and his children had gone through more than half a year and overcame numerous difficulties to return. If Gu Dinglian was still alive, how could he not come back?

Aunt Liu and Li Yun'er both looked grim, their last hope in their hearts shattered.

Gu Chengjing slowly spoke, "Father loves my uncle very much. If there is a chance, he will definitely leave a glimmer of hope for my uncle. The absence of my uncle's body on the battlefield is the best proof. And..."

"And what?" Aunt Liu and Li Yun'er were both attracted by Gu Chengjing's words.

"Uncle Leng Ning is missing too!!"

Everyone was stunned. That's right. Leng Ning was not by Gu Dingbei's side when he died. Leng Ning had been with Gu Dingbei since he was a child and was the most loyal. How could he not be by Gu Dingbei's side at such a critical moment?

Shen Lianxin narrowed her eyes slightly. She had always felt that there was a possibility that Gu Dinglian was alive, but she was never sure. She always felt that she had missed some important details. Now that Gu Chengzhi pointed them out, she understood clearly.

"What do you mean?" Li Yuner spoke first.

"Uncle Leng Ning would never leave my father's side at a critical moment. My mother just said that when she saw my father, only Uncle Zhang Meng was by his side, and Uncle Leng Ning was not there. It can be seen that Uncle Leng Ning must have been sent by my father to do something more important! For example, take my uncle away!"

Everyone was shocked. Gu Chengjing was thoughtful and strategic. He rarely spoke, but what he said was rarely ignored. Therefore, at a young age, he was known as the Little Zhuge of the Zhenbei Army.

"Yes, yes, Xiaojing is right, Dinglian must still be alive!" Li Yun'er was overjoyed and tears rolled down her cheeks unconsciously.

Aunt Liu was equally excited, "Thank you, Xiao Jing!!"

Gu Chengjing nodded and shook his head. He didn't know whether it was true or not, he just expressed his speculation. Whether it was true or not, it would be good to leave a glimmer of hope and faith in the hearts of Grandmother and Third Aunt.

"Xiao An and Xiao Jing have just come back. We have seen them. Let them rest quickly and don't disturb them anymore." Aunt Liu left with the people from the second and third rooms.

Shen Lianxin's eyes were full of approval, and Gu Chengjing spoke carefully, "Mother, I..."

Shen Lianxin touched his head and said, "Xiao Jing is right. After Xiao Jing's reminder, I think what you said is very likely the truth!"

Gu Chengjing was delighted to receive Shen Lianxin's affirmation. He also picked up a piece of cake and started eating.

The more Shen Lianxin looked at him, the more she liked him. The children had grown up, and Gu Chengjing had become more and more outstanding, with superior demeanor, temperament and wisdom. The once sickly little bean sprout from the mountain village had finally transformed into the leading man.

"Madam!! Second Young Master, Third Young Master!! The bath water is ready!" Xiaohui came in with tears in her eyes and asked the two of them to wash up.

Gu Chengan was delighted to see Xiaohui, and went over to hold her hand, "Xiaohui, long time no see. You, why have you lost weight? Hey!! What's wrong with you? Why are you crying?"

As soon as she heard that Gu Chengan had returned, Xiaohui secretly cried. She watched Gu Chengan talking to the master of the mansion from afar. Xiaohui did not dare to go forward, but was happy and excited in her heart. She put the water in place so that she could look at Gu Chengan and say a word.

But Gu Chengan came over and held her hand. All the worries and fears she had felt for so long turned into grievances, and her tears couldn't stop flowing.

Gu Chengjing looked up at Shen Lianxin, and was relieved to see that Shen Lianxin was still smiling and not unhappy.

"Thank you, Sister Xiaohui! Second brother, we are all dirty, so let's go wash up first and then chat with Sister Xiaohui!"

Xiao Hui quickly wiped the tears from her face, "I'm fine, I'm just happy to see the Second Young Master and the Third Young Master come back safely!!"

Gu Chengan wiped the tears from Xiaohui's face and said, "Third brother is right. Let's go take a shower first and come back to see you later."

Gu Chengan and Gu Chengjing said hello to Shen Lianxin and went to take a shower. After being outside for so long, their clothes were covered in blood, dirty and smelly. Now that they were back, they should wash up first.
