Chapter 168 Thank you, General’s wife
Chapter 168 Thank you, General’s wife
The girl was slightly stunned, but did not immediately take the exquisite box.
She stared at the boy silently, complex emotions flashing in her eyes.
After a moment, she slowly reached out her hand and took the gift.
However, she did not open it immediately, but held it tightly in her hand.
After a while, the girl bit her lips lightly, then carefully took out a small amulet from her arms.
She handed the amulet to the boy and said softly, "This is what my sister gave me. She said it would keep me safe. Now, I give this amulet to you. I hope you can come back safely."
The young man looked at the amulet in his hand, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart.
He carefully put the amulet away and held it tightly in his arms.
At this time, the girl signaled to Cui Ning behind her, and Cui Ning hurriedly brought over a package.
The girl took the package and handed it to the boy.
"These are all talismans I drew. Although I have lost my spiritual power now, I can still draw some of them." The girl explained with a smile.
The boy opened the package and saw that it was filled with stacks of yellow talisman paper folded into triangles.
Each piece of talisman paper is covered with mysterious runes and patterns, emitting a faint spiritual fluctuation.
The young man stared at the talismans blankly and stood there in a daze.
"I know the Ye family doesn't believe in the power of these spells, but they might be of some help at a critical moment."
The girl said softly, a hint of panic in her tone when she saw that the boy had remained silent.
"Even if it doesn't have any practical effect, at least it can give you peace of mind."
The boy looked at the girl quietly, with stars twinkling in his eyes.
He knew how much energy such a talisman would consume for the young girl today.
He took a deep breath and then hugged the girl tightly.
The young man smiled brightly and asked softly in a gentle voice.
"When was it painted?"
The young man gently stroked the talisman in the package.
"From the day I received the news that you were going to the war."
The girl looked at the boy's face, her eyes flickering and a smile appearing at the corner of her mouth.
There was chaos on the border of Li State. Originally, the Northern State and the Southern State were attacking it from both sides, but the Northern State withdrew its troops for no reason.
So this battle was not that dangerous.
The girl never thought that this might be the last time they met.
But I still prepared a lot of protective amulets, even if their effects were minimal.
But the girl was afraid, she didn't want to lose someone important to her again.
He had been seriously injured when he went looking for medicine. It was so close that they almost couldn't meet each other again. The girl didn't want him to be in danger again.
"The Lin family army has a large number of people. I know this is definitely not enough..."
The girl's voice was soft, yet filled with concern.
Her eyes were bright, like two shining stars, which made the boy fall in love with her.
Before she could finish her words, the boy continued, "Is this for them? I thought it was all for me."
The boy deliberately acted aggrieved, which made the girl laugh out loud.
"Young General Lin, this is really not very honest."
There were also soldiers standing nearby the door. One of them was a young general who had a good relationship with Ye Qin. After hearing what Ye Qin said, he smiled and spoke.
Another young general followed suit: "Soldiers, why don't you thank the general's wife?"
Suddenly, the entrance to the Lin Mansion became bustling with activity, and the soldiers excitedly shouted, "Thank you, Madam General!"
Their voices were deafening, as if they were about to break through the sky.
The whole scene was full of excitement and heartwarming atmosphere.
The time to leave the city is approaching, and the young man is about to leave.
He held the girl's hand tightly and whispered, "Wait until I come back."
His eyes were firm, as if telling the girl that no matter how many dangers lay ahead, he would return safely.
The girl nodded vigorously, with stars twinkling in her eyes, but the tears remained in her eyes and did not fall.
Because she believed that the boy would return safely.
The young man was wearing armor, holding a spear, riding a tall warhorse, and leading the army towards the battlefield.
The golden swords and iron horses were magnificent, and his figure was particularly dazzling in the sun.
The girl stood at the door, looking at the boy's back as he walked away, her heart filled with reluctance.
But she knew that the boy went to the war to defend his country and his people, and she should be proud of him.
…………
"In his previous life, he was a general who defended his country. In this life, he is a policeman who serves the country and the people. Ye Linfeng must have done a lot of good deeds."
Shu Wanwan looked at the scene in front of her, her eyes full of admiration.
She admired Ye Qin and Ye Linfeng's identities and what they did, and she also believed that he must have accumulated a lot of merit.
Shu Wanwan held her chin with one hand and said while thinking: "Yes, it should be."
After hearing what Shu Wanwan said, Dai Yan also expressed her agreement.
Her gaze shifted from Shu Wanwan to the scene in front of her, continuing to observe Ye Qin's every move.
However, Shu Wanwan seemed to have discovered something unusual. She frowned and a puzzled look appeared on her face.
Dai Yan noticed something was wrong with Shu Wanwan and asked with concern, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"
Shu Wanwan shook her head gently, indicating that she had not figured it out yet.
She pointed at the screen with her chin, signaling Dai Yan to continue watching.
Dai Yan understood what Shu Wanwan meant, so she waved her finger again to let the picture continue playing.
As the screen switched, a new scene appeared before the two people.
Dai Yan stared at the picture intently, while Shu Wanwan fell into deep thought, trying to sort out her thoughts and find out what was unusual.
…………
The sunlight shines through the gaps between the leaves and falls into the courtyard of the Lin family mansion, forming patches of mottled light and shadow.
It was still the same round table, still there, as if time had never changed its position.
The girl sat quietly at the round table, holding a yellowed book gently in her hands, reading the words in the book attentively.
The sunlight shines through the treetops and falls on the girl, creating a mottled light and shadow.
She tilted her head slightly, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly like butterfly wings, revealing a gentle breath.
There was only one person sitting there quietly, looking a little lonely.
There is always a faint smile on the girl's face, and her originally taciturn personality has become more gentle.
The sunlight gently hit the girl's face, illuminating her fair skin and delicate features, highlighting her absolute beauty.
Today's girls have gradually shed their former youthfulness and immaturity, replaced by an increasingly mature charm.
Her beauty is as delicate and charming as a blooming flower, she is graceful and exudes charming fragrance.
Three years have passed in the blink of an eye.
The city near the border fell into chaos. Battles of all sizes lasted for three years, and the girl waited for three years.
The girl's life seemed to be spent in endless waiting. She often sat alone at the round table, looking at the gate of the courtyard.
Fortunately, Ye Qin would write a letter back to the Ye family every two weeks.
These letters, some long and some short, tell about things happening at the border and the writer's longing for the girl.
The girl carefully collected these letters and they have accumulated into a thick stack.
My sister also writes to me once a month.
Although the article is not long, every word is filled with concern for the girl.
So these three years were not that difficult for the girl.
Today was no exception, the girl was reading in the yard as usual.
Her eyes sometimes lingered on the pages of the book, and sometimes looked towards the gate of the yard, as if she was expecting someone to arrive.
Suddenly, a burst of hurried footsteps broke the tranquility of the yard.
Cui Ning was panting and jogging towards the girl.
Her face was filled with joy and she held a letter tightly in her hand.
"Miss!"
Cui Ning shouted, her voice filled with excitement, "Miss, I have good news to tell you! The Ye family army has won a great victory!"
When the girl heard the news, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
She put down the book in her hand, looked at the direction Cui Ning ran in with a smile, and asked softly: "Really? This is indeed good news. Where is General Ye?"
Cui Ning jogged all the way here, panting with exhaustion, but she didn't dare to stop for even a moment.
He ran to the girl and handed her the letter. He gasped and said, "The messenger didn't tell me what happened. This is a letter from the border town."
