Wei Ruo continued to say to Xu Zhengyong, “Don’t worry about it. If you need anything, just write to me and I’ll prepare everything that you need.”

“My little sister Ruo’er, you’re so kind to me! Having you, this Xu Zhengyong’s life is blessed!” Xu Zhengyong was deeply moved.

“Anyway, your top priority is to ensure your own safety.” Wei Ruo reminded again.

Brother Xiaoyong sometimes acts impulsively without considering the consequences, so she had to nag a bit.

“Um, don’t worry Ruo’er, I’ve got it covered.” Xu Zhengyong agreed with a smile.

“By the way, Meimei brought you several things.” Wei Ruo said and pulled Xiumei up.

Xiumei looked a bit shy, hesitated for a moment, and stuffed the cloth bag she had carried into Xu Zhengyong’s arms.

“What are you doing? Taking the opportunity to beat me up?” Xu Zhengyong asked.

The force of her dumping the cloth onto him was similar to the force of someone beating him.

“What do you mean beating you up? I’m giving you some supplements. These can replenish your body.” Xiumei explained.

Learning that the baggage was filled with supplements for himself, Xu Zhengyong couldn’t help but grin: “Meimei, you are so kind to me! If you can’t be my junior sister in the future, you can be my wife!”

“What are you talking about?” Xiumei became angry and swung her fist at Xu Zhengyong.

Xu Zhengyong quickly ran away, but when he ran away, he tightly held the bundle in his arms and didn’t want to let go.

“Xu Zhengyong, stop!” Xiumei shouted.

Xu Zhengyong ran very fast, shouting as he ran: “If I stop, you will beat me to death! I was not injured on the battlefield. If I return home to be beaten up by you, how will I explain it to my comrades?”

Wei Ruo and the nanny shook their heads helplessly. They were used to this kind of fight between the two of them. Anyway, nothing would really happen in the end, so they just let them go.

Wei Ruo and Xiumei stayed with the Xu family until dusk. It was late and they had to leave. They bid farewell to the Xu family, got on the carriage and returned to the Colonel’s Mansion.

Two days later, good news also came from Wei Mansion.

The matter of Xu Zhengyong’s promotion from a soldier to major general had been settled.

Wei Ruo asked Xiumei to deliver the medicine she had packed. She had originally planned to prepare more, but time was running out. She was afraid that Xu Zhengyong would have already left for the military camp if she delayed it any longer.

At the same time, good news also came from the Wei family, Wei Mingting was also promoted.

He was promoted from Colonel to Lieutenant Colonel, while his nominal position was also promoted from sixth rank Zhongxian Colonel to sixth rank Zhaoxin Colonel.

For a time, the Colonel’s Mansion was immersed in cheers.

Wei Mingting had been stuck in the position of Colonel for a long time and had not received any promotion.

A while ago, he was still worried about the possibility of being fired or demoted.

Now things are getting better, the gloom has dissipated, and the atmosphere turns joyful.

“Hurry up, write a letter to the capital and tell the people in Bo Zhongyi’s Mansion about this good news!”

Yun Shi arranged for the eldest son Wei Yichen to write a letter to Bo Zhongyi’s Mansion in the capital to report this good news.

Although the news would definitely be known in the capital, as a junior, they need to courteously write a letter to explain the situation.

Then she ordered people in the mansion to prepare a celebration banquet for her husband, which was only for the family to gather together for a meal. Wei Mingting had instructed not to be extravagant.

Recently, the situation in Xingshan County was pretty bad, and the rice harvest in many households isn’t as good as expected. Moreover, the weather this year felt colder than before, and various signs were indicating they would encounter more difficulties this year.
