Bai Xian could see the hesitation on Lan Shi's face, and she knew that she was being a bit willful. Since Shao Yue had told her not to leave the courtyard in the first place, she should obediently wait until returned before returning home.

Bai Xian said gently, "Don't make things difficult, let's wait for the general to come back before I speak to him."

Lan Shi looked at Bai Xian, and suddenly clenched his fists tightly: "I'll bring you out tomorrow morning."

After running for a few days on the road, Bai Xian, whose muscles were sore, had already laid on the bed early in the morning without a trace of sleepiness. However, now that she knew that Shao Yue was the general of the imperial government, she would definitely come back when she finds her family.

The next morning, Bai Xian was pulled up by the excited Lan Shi. Looking at the luggage that Lan Shi had prepared, Bai Xian was really shocked.

There were also two roasted chickens wrapped with lotus leaves. All sorts of small mouths were stuffed with large bags as Bai Xian said: "Miss Lan, can we really finish all the food we brought with us?"

Lan Shi nodded her head in an exaggerated manner, she still felt that these things were lacking: "Miss, I will fly you out first, there are already horses prepared outside the residence, we can set off now."

Bai Xian trembled in fear as he was grabbed by the arm by Lan Shi. Looking at the huge package on Lan Shi's back, Bai Xian was truly worried that Lan Shi would bring him to use the lightness exercise.

Fortunately Lan Shi was an expert in lightness exercise, so she brought Bai Xian to a place not far away from the Shao Mansion's back door. Feng Liu held onto two horses as he waited for them, "Xiao Lan, be careful on your way with Miss Bai."

Bai Xian gratefully looked at Lan Shi and Feng Liu. For the sake of their impulsive thoughts, they were actually able to do such a thing.

On the way back, the worry and fear in Bai Xian's heart continued to expand. She continuously urged Lan Shi to speed up, and the two of them travelled without stopping, just like when they first arrived. Finally, on the morning of the eighth day, they returned to the Two Li Stall where Bai Xian had lived for a few months.

As expected, after the war ended, the citizens of Two Li Stall had all returned to their hometowns, but those who had died could no longer live. The two led their horses along the road, and Bai Xian saw that many of the familiar streets were no longer there.

When Bai Xian saw his own courtyard, his heart trembled. Heavens, the usually warm little courtyard had actually turned into a pile of ruins, and the large gates and walls had all fallen to the ground. She ran into the courtyard with large strides, and shouted: "Mother, Mother, Little Xiu, Mother, are you guys at home?"

Bai Xian seemed to have gone crazy. He was searching for the Bai’s mother and Bai Xiu's figures from house to house, why wasn't he looking for them? Could it be that Bai’s mother and Bai Xiu really haven't returned? Bai Xian, who could not accept this result, carefully looked through every corner of every room once again. But the result was the same, there was not a single trace of life in the entire house. It seemed that Bai’s mother and Bai Xiu had really not returned to the Two Li Stall.

Looking at Bai Xian, who went from being excited to disappointed, finally sat on the ground in despair, he stepped forward and comforted him, "Miss, don't be sad, they might not be home, let's keep on looking around."

Bai Xian hugged his legs, and looked in front of him with empty eyes. Why did fate treat her like this? Where had his mother gone? "It's fine, as long as they're still alive."

She suddenly stood up and walked out of the room. Bai Xian did not want to stay in her original home any longer.

Lan Shi anxiously supported Bai Xian, and the two of them had just walked out of the house, when they heard someone call out: "Xian Er? Is that you? "

Hearing the familiar name that the song called, Bai Xian Rick raised his head and looked towards the person that just arrived. Standing not far away was Bai’s mother and Shen Yunqing, the two of them were still wearing the same clothes that they had worn when leaving the army camp.

Bai Xian ran towards the Bai’s mother's embrace. Smelling the familiar scent unique to this mother, the tears that Bai Xian had been trying to hold in finally flowed down. "Mother, Mother, I knew you would come back."

When Bai’s mother saw her daughter who had been separated for a long time suddenly appear, the worry in her heart was greatly relieved. She patted the crying Bai Xian: "Xian Er, don't be afraid, your mother is here."

Shen Yunqing looked at Lan Shi. "Who are you?"

Lan Shi shot her a glance. She should be Bai Xian's friend, so her attitude should be better: "I'm Lan Shi, a subordinate of General Shao."

Bai’s mother helped Bai Xian up. Seeing Bai Xian and Lan Shi standing together, the two of them should be coming together. Was Bai Xian saved by General Shao? She gratefully said to Lan Shi: "Thank you for taking care of Bai Xian."

In the end, Lan Shi was still a girl that was the same age as Bai Xian. Seeing Bai’s mother speak so gently, her heart softened, "Madam, it is only right.

Bai Xian pulled on Bai’s mother's hand and then emotionally pulled on Shen Yunqing's hand. The lives of the two of them must have been really tough recently, so when she thought of this, she suddenly asked Bai’s mother: "Mother, where's Little Xiu? Why isn't Little Xiu with you? Is he waiting for you at the inn? "

Bai’s mother and Shen Yunqing looked at each other, and Shen Yunqing stepped forward to pacify the excited Bai Xian: "Bai Xian, don't be hasty, let's talk slowly."

That night, Bai Xian left by himself and asked Shen Yunqing to bring everyone to escape. She did not expect that while it was dark, many people would slowly leave the group and escape in other directions.

By the time Shen Yunqing realised this, the group of people had already changed from two hundred to a few dozen. Just as Shen Yunqing was thinking about what to do, the sounds of horses galloping came from not too far away, and someone suddenly shouted: "The enemy has arrived." The entire troop started to flee in all directions. In the midst of panic, Bai’s mother thought that she was holding onto Bai Xiu's hand tightly, but she didn't expect that when they were far away and when she turned around, the one she was holding onto was Shen Yunqing.

Bai Xian listened to Shen Yunqing's explanation, but didn't seem to understand what he was saying. She looked at Bai’s mother in a daze, and asked him for confirmation with a trembling voice, "Mother, Yun Qing is joking with me, right? What she said wasn't true, right? Little Xiu is waiting for us at the inn to pick him up, right? "

Lan Shi whispered into the ears of the excited Bai Xian: "Madame is also very sad, so you shouldn't speak anymore."

Bai Xian's excitement was all because she did not dare to accept the fact that her brother had been lost. Previously, she had thought that even if Bai’s mother and Bai Xiu had gone somewhere else, they could still take care of each other. Who knew that when Bai’s mother returned home, Bai Xiu would actually disappear.

Hearing Lan Shi's words, Bai Xian more or less regained some of her rationality. She could not continue like this, she had to calm down and take good care of her mother.
