Chapter 440 Brother and Sister Return Home

The sun rises and the moon sets, and the time that slips away quietly witnesses countless partings and countless reunions.

On June 18, four days before the college entrance examination, Cheng Wan and Cheng Daping returned to their family and reunited with Old Lady Lin and others.

"Where's A-Yan? Why didn't A-Yan come back with you? A-Yan must be fine, right? Huh?"

In the main hall of the front yard of the Cheng residence, Mrs. Lin and others, who looked tired and haggard, had no time to care about Cheng Wan, or even Cheng Daping, whom they had been thinking about for a long time. As soon as they saw Cheng Wan, they asked about Gu Yan expectantly and cautiously.

"Ayan is recovering in Huai'an County. He is alive, not dead. I left Sui Sui with Ayan."

“Alive…alive…Ayan is alive…Ayan is alive!”

The murmurs of Old Lady Lin became louder and louder, and finally she burst into tears of joy, covering her eyes and crying heartbreakingly, her voice so loud that it seemed as if she wanted to cry out all the pain and fear in her heart during this period. While crying, she shouted: "It's good to be alive! It's good to be alive!"

Cheng Wan supported Old Lady Lin's body as she cried so hard that she could not stand steadily. He listened to the crying and laughing of Old Lady Lin and others who were filled with fear and relief, and his nose couldn't help but feel sour.

Yes, it’s good to be alive.

At this moment, Wang, with red and moist eyes, suddenly asked: "Ayan... he doesn't have any missing limbs, right?"

Ok? !

Old Mrs. Lin and the others stopped crying immediately and looked at Cheng Wan anxiously.

"No." Cheng Wan helped Old Lady Lin sit down, and said in a gentle voice: "Ayan is not missing any limbs, but the injury this time is quite serious, so he needs to recuperate for a while."

"Huh~ That's good! That's good!"

Wang gasped and patted her chest, tears flowing from her eyes continuously, but there was a long-lost sense of relaxation and smile at the corners of her mouth.

She couldn't sleep day and night during this period, her heart was in a knot, and she prayed to all the gods and Buddhas all the time, asking them to bless her child to get through this disaster safely.

God and all the gods and Buddhas in the sky are finally blessing her and the Cheng family. She must do more good deeds in the future to accumulate more blessings for her children!

The emotions of Old Lady Lin and the others gradually calmed down, and then they finally remembered Cheng Daping who had been standing aside and acting as the "invisible man".

All in all, Cheng Daping has been away from home for a year and a half. Even an ordinary person would experience great changes after such a long period of time, not to mention that Cheng Daping has experienced such a long period of military service and battlefield training.

The army and the battlefield are two of the places that can best temper a person.

Blood and killing, survival and death, struggle and fight...

What happens in the military and on the battlefield is enough to reshape a person.

Cheng Daping's change was so great that even Old Lady Lin and others felt a little dazed when looking at Cheng Daping in front of them.

The green and familiar young man has been completely transformed into a mature, steady, sharp... and somewhat unfamiliar man.

Cheng Daping looked at his loved ones, and all kinds of emotions surged in his heart, and he felt an indescribable bitterness in his heart.

"Grandma, Dad, Mom, Daping... is back!"

After saying that, Cheng Daping knelt on the ground on his knees facing the direction of Old Lady Lin, Cheng Daniu and Wang, and hit his head on the ground with a "bang".

The hall was so quiet that you could hear everyone's breathing.

"Da...Daping..."

Wang held Cheng Daniu's hand tightly, staring at Cheng Daping's kneeling and kowtowing figure, not daring to blink, but her voice trembled as soon as she opened her mouth.

Cheng Daping raised his head and looked at Wang, tears already in his eyes: "Mother, I am an unfilial son. I only came home today. I am back late."

"No, it's not too late!" Wang let go of Cheng Daniu's hand, walked quickly to Cheng Daping, and tried to pull Cheng Daping up from the ground while crying non-stop: "The war only ended recently, it's not up to you to decide when to return home. It's best if you can return safely. As long as you can return safely, it's not too late!"

Cheng Daping did not stand up despite Wang's force. He did not fulfill his responsibilities to the family. Not only did he make almost no contribution to the family, but he also made his family members worry about him.

He felt guilty towards his family.

"Mom, please let me kneel for a while."

"Why are you kneeling? How can you kneel down right after entering the house? Get up quickly."

"No, mother, I..."

“Pa!” Old Lady Lin slapped the coffee table beside her hard: “If he doesn’t want to get up, make him kneel down!”

The words that Cheng Daping was about to say stopped abruptly, and he looked at Old Lady Lin with some fear.

So what if he is a sixth-rank Zhaowu commander?

The old lady in the house slammed the table, but was still frightened and shrank her neck.

"Grandma..." Cheng Daping called out to Old Lady Lin in a coquettish manner.

Old Mrs. Lin had no intention of paying attention to Cheng Daping at this time.

I used too much force just now and my palm hurts.

Cheng Wan glanced at Mrs. Lin's face which was distorted for a moment, then glanced at her slightly trembling right hand. He approached Mrs. Lin calmly, then took Mrs. Lin's right hand and gently rubbed her palm in the gesture of persuading her.

We have to take the old lady's face into consideration.

"Grandma, it's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's grace that my brother can come back this time. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was worried that it would be unsafe for me to come back alone, so he specially asked my brother to come back with me.

By the way, big brother is now a sixth-rank Zhaowu commander!

In terms of official position, Big Brother is much higher than me!"

Zhaowu Commander? !

Sixth rank?!

Old Mrs. Lin and others looked at Cheng Daping with deep surprise in their eyes, as if they couldn't believe that the Cheng family could produce a "promising person".

"Captain Zhaowu?! Sixth rank?!" Cheng Erping screamed in surprise.

He had rushed here from Suiyi Building after hearing the news that Cheng Wan and Cheng Daping had returned home. As soon as he approached the main hall, he heard Cheng Wan say that Cheng Daping was a sixth-rank Zhaowu commander.

When Cheng Wan saw Cheng Erping running in, he first greeted Cheng Erping with a smile, and then proudly confirmed: "Yes! Big brother is now a sixth-rank Zhaowu lieutenant!"

"Brother!" Cheng Erping approached Cheng Daping with sparkling eyes, his face full of admiration: "Brother, you are really awesome!"

"Brother is awesome!" Cheng Wan nodded heavily.

Cheng Daping... Cheng Daping was a little happy, but more embarrassed and even a little ashamed.

"My performance is nothing, Ah Wan is the real deal!"

"Humph!" Old Lady Lin snorted, "You are quite self-aware. Compared to Ah Wan, you are indeed far behind."

"Milk!" Cheng Wan pinched Mrs. Lin's palm disapprovingly.

What is this for?

It's obvious that he's thinking about her very much and caring about her so much, but now that she's right in front of him, instead of kissing her properly, he's acting weird.

“Ahem!” Old Lady Lin coughed. “Although she can’t compare to Ah Wan, she is still amazing and has brought honor to our Cheng family. Hurry up and burn some incense for your grandfather and tell him that you are back safely!”

At the end of her speech, Mrs. Lin's eyes turned red.
