Dressed as a vicious stepmother, farming and raising cubs
Chapter 160 “Triumph Return”
Early that morning, Su Liu was woken up by a rapid knock on the door.
Looking around, Shen Luochen was not there. He probably went to practice early again.
So, she had no choice but to brave her sleepiness, get up from the bed, and open the door.
"Liu'er! Good news!"
As soon as he opened the door, he saw Wen Shiche looking beaming and excited. When he spoke, his voice was trembling because of his extreme excitement.
"The northwest army has recovered the lost ground and returned with a great victory. Father and the others are already on their way back!"
"What?" Su Liu suddenly became excited, his mind came to his senses completely, and then he quickly showed a look of joy.
"So, the eldest brother and the third brother are coming back soon?"
Wen Shiche nodded first, then shook his head, "The third brother came back with his father. The eldest brother has to go to the capital to report on his work, so he should be late."
"That's right." Su Liu nodded thoughtfully, "When they come back, we must have a good celebration!"
But she still remembered the promise she made with Wen Shiye that when they came back, she would never return until they were drunk!
Another half month passed after that, and finally on a misty morning, the triumphant team marched through the gate of Fengcheng.
Su Liu, Wen Shiche and Mrs. Li naturally got the news early and were already waiting in front of the general's mansion, waiting to welcome them.
Seeing the shadow of the motorcade appearing in the white mist from a distance, Su Liu jumped for joy.
Walking at the front were General Wen and Wen Shiye. They were wearing armor and walking side by side. There were also people on both sides of the street watching the excitement, and they all cheered.
The convoy was getting closer and closer, and several people took a few steps forward.
"Mother! Second brother! Little sister!" Wen Shiye had seen them a long time ago and waved while riding on horseback.
Then the two of them got off their horses and walked forward quickly.
"Madam!" General Wen went straight to Mrs. Li and held her hand.
The two were obviously an old couple, but they still had a deep love for each other. When they met again, they both had tears in their eyes.
After months of war, the family was finally reunited.
Wen Shiye stood with Su Liu and Wen Shiche. The three of them talked and laughed and entered the door together.
"We have prepared a celebration banquet early, so we can have a good drink tonight!" Wen Shiche said with a smile.
"Great!" Wen Shiye nodded excitedly.
Su Liu stood beside the two of them, smiling easily and wantonly.
The dinner was held in the backyard of the General's Mansion. No outsiders were invited. Only the family sat together. It was simple and warm.
General Wen and Wen Shiye had just returned from the battlefield, and there was still a lot to do. It was not until the banquet that the family finally had time to sit down and talk in detail about their experiences in the past few months.
In the Battle of the Northwest, General Wen and Wen Shizhao jointly commanded. With their wisdom and courage, they turned the tide and finally regained the lost territory. As a new general, Wen Shiye also performed extraordinary and has been promoted to captain of thousands.
Su Liu sat in his seat and found it very interesting to listen to Wen Shiye's thrilling experiences on the battlefield.
Shen Luochen, who was sitting next to her, was much calmer and didn't say a word during the whole process.
A maid stood beside them, stepped forward, and poured drinks for the two of them.
Su Liu took the opportunity to look up and was a little surprised:
"Su Tao, why is it you?"
Normally, on such occasions, Qingbi should be the one serving her.
"Qingbi is sick, so I will take care of her sister." Su Tao lowered her head and replied, with no strange expression on her face.
Su Liu nodded clearly. She was in a good mood now and didn't think much about it. Halfway through the banquet, she felt a little dizzy and stood up to get some air. Shen Luochen supported her thoughtfully.
"I'll go with you."
Su Liu nodded and was about to get up with his support.
"Little sister, where are you going?" Seeing this, Wen Shiye asked curiously.
"I'm going to sober up, you guys eat first!" Su Liu opened his tongue and left a sentence.
"Come back early! We can't miss you here!" Wen Shiye seemed a little unhappy and warned loudly.
Su Liu nodded with a smile, and left the table with Shen Luochen first.
Neither of them saw it. After they left, Su Tao secretly took out a white paper bag from his sleeve and sprinkled some light yellow powder into one of the wine glasses.
The moon is bright and the stars are sparse outside, the air is fresh and pleasant, and the cool breeze hits your face, making you feel refreshed.
Su Liu felt that the dizziness seemed to have eased, but he still lazily leaned on Shen Luochen's shoulder and breathed out lightly.
"Shen Luochen, if only every day could be like today..."
She spoke vaguely, with a slight smile on her lips.
Shen Luochen looked at her steadily, his eyes flickering, but he didn't say anything and just stopped her gently.
He knew that she was particularly happy today because the Wen family and his son were all back safely. She is a woman who values friendship and does her best for family members who have only known each other for a short time.
The two stood outside quietly for a while, as if the passage of time had slowed down.
Su Liu felt that he was almost sober, so he pulled Shen Luochen's sleeve and whispered:
"Let's go. Third brother will be blamed if you don't go back."
When she returned to the table, she was indeed encouraged by Wen Shiye to drink for the second round, but she was happy to do so. After all, this was a day worth celebrating.
Shen Luochen still sat quietly aside, his eyes never leaving her. He also picked up his wine glass and took a sip.
At this moment, a look of unknown meaning flashed across Su Tao's eyes behind him, and the corners of his mouth curved into an imperceptible arc.
The banquet lasted until late at night. Su Liu felt that he couldn't hold on any longer, so he finally begged for mercy:
"Third brother! Let's get here first today! I want to go back to sleep!"
"Hey, we promised to drink for three days and three nights!"
Wen Shiye was immediately dissatisfied. He looked energetic, obviously he had just returned from the battlefield.
"Okay, third brother, just let her go." Wen Shiche also laughed and started to say good things to Su Liu.
Wen Shiye naturally knew that it was unreasonable to force someone to stay, so he could only shrug, looked at Shen Luochen, and said loudly:
"Hey! Boy, please send my little sister back!"
Shen Luochen nodded obediently and helped Su Liu up considerately. Unexpectedly, she pulled him away.
"I'm fine, I can leave by myself." Su Liu said carelessly, said hello to Wen Shiye and Wen Shiche, and then strode toward her and Shen Luochen's residence.
Shen Luochen followed her like a little follower, which looked quite funny.
Just when the two of them were approaching the door, Su Tao suddenly rushed out:
"Sister! It's not good!"
