Chapter 460: Returning to Mountain Spring Town

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

This wine feast lasted until almost evening. Emperor Xuan was eventually helped out of the premises half-drunk by his eunuchs.

Song Que was also a little drunk and Qin Xiaoyao was the one who helped him out of Cloud Scent Court.

In the end, just as he left Cloud Scent Court and got into the horse carriage, Song Que became sober considerably.

He then pulled Qin Xiaoyao into his arms.

“You’re quite generous, aren’t you? You are inviting him to come and look for us in Mountain Spring Town when he’s free?” the man said with a hint of drunkenness.

Qin Xiaoyao was surprised.

Then, she smiled and patted her husband’s back.

“I was just being polite.

“He is the Emperor now. He is carrying the weight of the kingdom and the well-being of the people on his shoulders. How can he have the time to bother us in Mountain Spring Town?” she said.

Song Que’s eyes were still filled with reproach.

He glanced at Qin Xiaoyao and continued, “What about going to the border?”

“We agreed to resign. Why did you promise him that you would bring the Warfire team to the border every year to undertake missions?”

Qin Xiaoyao was astounded again.

Well, she couldn’t possibly reveal that she had made this request to Emperor Xuan in advance, asking him to deliberately mention this in front of her husband,could she?

Of course, not.

“Hehe! If we stay in Mountain Spring Town all the time, it will be a little boring, won’t it?

“Isn’t it nice to go to the border every year to relax?

“When the time comes, I’ll definitely bring you along,” Qin Xiaoyao said.

Only then did Song Que’s expression become more relaxed.

He allowed himself to lean on Qin Xiaoyao.

“You can’t go back on your word,” he said.

Then, he closed his eyes.

Qin Xiaoyao smiled and was about to tell Song Que that she would never go back on her word.

However, Song Que had already fallen asleep.

The corners of Qin Xiaoyao’s mouth curled up slightly. She adjusted Song Que’s body to a more comfortable sleeping position before settling down to lean against the wall of the horse carriage comfortably.

Such days were really good…

The next day was the day Marquis Xiaoyao and Marquis Anding depart the capital.

Qin Xiaoyao, Song Que, the Liu siblings, and Princess Xiangyang were escorted by a team of guards as they set off on their way back to Mountain Spring Town.

In the palace, Emperor Xuan stood on the highest tower in the palace and looked in the distance in the direction of the city gate.

He couldn’t see that group of people leaving, but he still stood there for a long time.

Suddenly, he asked the eunuch standing behind him, “At this hour, Marquis Xiaoyao and the rest should have already left the capital, right?”

The eunuch took a step forward.

“Your Majesty, Marquis Xiaoyao and her group have already set off at 9 am.

“At this hour, they are probably about three miles away from the city.”

Emperor Xuan remained silent.

He finally turned around.

“Prepare my carriage to return to the Hall of Court Affairs,” he said in a deep voice.

With that, he strode away.

Qin Xiaoyao and her group traveled and stopped intermittently, admiring the beautiful scenery along the way. Finally, ten days later, they had almost reached Mountain Spring Town.

The guards went ahead to report their impending arrival.

Qin Xiaoyao and the rest were still following right behind them slowly.

After entering Mountain Spring Town, the convoy went straight to the Marquis’s residence Qin Xiaoyao had set up.

Madam Liu and the others had received the news early in the morning. When she received news that her son and daughter-in-law were coming back, she had already instructed the servants to get the place ready.

Thus, when everyone returned, they could move directly into their own courtyards.

Their lunch was not delayed either.

During the meal, Madam Liu asked many questions about the capital.

After hearing about the “big matter” her son and daughter-in-law had accomplished in the capital, Madam Liu was terrified.

She also learned that the Song and Liu family’s cases had been overturned, and her son had been conferred the title of Marquis Anding. Moreover, the title was inheritable in eternity for the Song family. Madam Liu was so excited that she almost cried.

She also learned that Emperor Xuan had personally decreed that Princess Xiangyang be betrothed to Liu Ling. Madam Liu held Liu Ling and Xiangyang’s hands and was so emotional that she choked.

“Alright, Mother. It’s all good news.

“Now we’re all back. In the future, we’ll stay by your side and shower you with filial piety!” Qin Xiaoyao said with a laugh.

“Sure, sure!” Madam Liu answered repeatedly.

She wiped her tears away with a smile.

“Let’s eat!” Qin Xiaoyao said with a smile.

Only then did everyone start eating happily.

After the meal, everyone returned to their respective courtyards to unpack their luggage or rest.

Although they traveled slowly on the road, the bumpy journey was still very tiring.

Initially, Madam Liu had a lot to say to the younger generation, but she held back and did not bother any one of them.

It was only at night, after dinner, that she rushed to Yun Niang’s courtyard.

The aunt and niece chatted until late at night.

Over the next few days, the Marquis’s residence was very lively.

First of all, the officials from Mountain Spring Town, Xiaoyao County, and Anding County came to pay their respects.

After that, some friends of Qin Xiaoyao and Song Que came to visit.

It was not until the fifth day that Big Girl Li and her husband brought their child to visit.

Little Chunhua was already more than ten months old and was as sturdy as her mother.

Her chubby little face was different from her mother’s, though. It was fair and tender, and Qin Xiaoyao liked it very much.

She carried the child in her arms and almost could not bear to let go.

“Sister Sanya, you and Brother-in-law are really amazing. You two just went out of town once and returned as Marquises after that!” Big Girl Li looked at the two people in front of her, her eyes filled with admiration.

She knew that her Sister Sanya was not an ordinary person. She had only been out for a short time, but not only had she led the soldiers of their Great Jin State to slay the Liao army until they retreated, but she had also become a Marquis!

And her Brother-in-law Song Que was also amazing!

Back then, when Brother-in-law Song Que got into trouble, all of them thought that he was doomed.

Who would have thought that today, he had also become a Marquis!

This couple was simply too awesome!

Qin Xiaoyao smiled and exchanged glances with Song Que.

Then, she replied to Big Girl Li without any modesty, “It’s not bad.

“The two of you are not bad either!

“Daniu’s business with Fortune Mansion is getting better and better. You have also opened up a grocery store.”

As the saying went, small wealth depended on hard work. In less than a year, the Liu family was able to reach a stage where they could fill their stomachs, have clothes to keep themselves warm, and still run a business in a disadvantageous environment.

This accomplishment was no doubt due to the concerted efforts of the entire family, as well as the down-to-earth hard-working ethics of the entire family.

Big Girl Li and her man looked at each other and nodded happily.

Their family had changed a lot during the time their Sister Sanya was not around.

While the two families were chatting, the Wang family’s father and son also came to visit.

Just like Big Girl Li and her husband, the Wang family’s father and son also came to look for Qin Xiaoyao and the rest.

It was thanks to the Song family and Wang Xiaomei’s help that they managed to survive the famine.

After that, it was also thanks to the Song family giving them permission so that they were able to rely on the Song family’s business to earn money to support their family.

In less than a year, with their hard work and Wang Xiaomei’s help, they had moved out of the Liu family’s courtyard house.

They had even bought their own courtyard house.

Although the courtyard house wasn’t big, it was still considered a place to stay in town.

Recently, Wang Dashan also bumped into the girl who had some affection for him in the past.

Back then, something had happened at home, so Wang Dashan stopped thinking about her because he did not dare to delay her future prospects.

Now that he knew that the girl had yet to discuss marriage with anyone, hope welled up in his heart again.

In short, the Wang family’s father and son were also grateful to the Song family.

The people who came were all acquainted with one another, so Qin Xiaoyao simply arranged for them to be received together.

She instructed the caretaker to get the kitchen to prepare delicious food and warmly welcomed the guests who had arrived..
