Chapter 1799: Your Status Is Different Now

Once she taught the fundamentals to these apprentices and they were able to deal with basic wounds, Ning Shu told Emperor Yan that she missed her parents and wanted to visit her home.

She had no idea how the two Chen elders were doing and didn’t know when a letter would arrive. It was faster to go home than send a letter.

Emperor Yan agreed readily. It wasn’t a big deal. Besides, she deserved preferential treatment. He even sent a group to escort Ning Shu back. She saluted him and said, “No need. This subject can go back by herself. The frontlines are in a tense situation, so there’s no need to waste manpower on this subject’s trivial matters.”

”Not returning to your hometown in honor and splendor is like wearing brocaded clothes for a walk at night. All your glory comes from your own efforts. It is only right to return to your hometown with riches and honor.” Emperor Yan said, ”Your status is different now. You should not act as an ordinary person.

”What kind of social hierarchy would allow this?”

Ning Shu: …

Shoot, wasn’t this what she told Emperor Yan before? Was this revenge?

”This subject was talking nonsense just now. Emperor, please forgive me.” Ning Shu half-squatted and saluted him.

”Itʼs okay. I wonʼt take it to heart,” said Emperor Yan.

Ning Shu: …

Damn it, it felt like this bastard was holding a grudge.

At this time, a couple of palace maids came in with trays. One of the trays had a luxurious, crimson piece of womenʼs clothing, and in the second were all kinds of headwear and jewelry.

”You are a woman, so return in womenʼs clothing,” said Emperor Yan.

Ning Shu saluted. ”This subject thanks the emperor for his grace.”

Ning Shu told Chen Li that she would go home. He wanted to send his lieutenant to escort Ning Shu, but she refused.

The next day, Ning Shu led a procession to grandiosely return back home. After much rushing, she finally made it back to the town near her home village.

It had been a long time since she returned. Ning Shu felt something like homesickness.

In the town, Ning Shu freshened up and changed into womenʼs clothing. A maid styled Ning Shu’s hair and inserted a luxurious dangling hairpin.

With makeup on her face, she really felt graceful and stately.

After leaving the inn, Ning Shu got into the carriage. The carriage was surrounded by curtains on all sides, and there were gilded bells on the four corners. As the carriage moved, they made a crisp tinkling.

Such displays were quite conspicuous in the small town, so the streets were full of people.

Ning Shu swept her eyes over the crowd at will. She unexpectedly saw Bai Yiqiao and Wen Yu in the crowd. The two stood very close, and it seemed that they had a close relationship.

Could it be that Bai Yiqiao and Wen Yu were together?

After three years of absence, Ning Shu felt that Bai Yiqiao was not living happily. Her brows were covered with worries and concerns.

When the group arrived at the entrance of the village, Ning Shu got out of the carriage and headed towards the Chen family home. Lady Li was carrying beans using a wicker basket on top of her head.

Ning Shuʼs eyes stung with tears. She didn’t know whether it was her own or the original ownerʼs emotions. She called out to Lady Li, ”Mother.”

Lady Li was stunned. She looked around with a doubtful face as Ning Shu approached Lady Li. ”Mother, I am Ermei.”

The basket in Lady Liʼs hand fell to the ground. ”Ermei? Really?”

”Itʼs really me.”

”Old man, Ermei, Ermei is back.” Lady Li turned around and ran into the house, crying to Father Chen.

Father Chen also came out. When he saw Ning Shu, he didnʼt dare to believe his eyes. His voice shook when he spoke, ”Ermei?”

”Yes…” responded Ning Shu.

Lady Li started crying. She wanted to hug Ning Shu, but upon seeing her clothes, the outstretched hand was retracted again.

Ning Shu hugged Lady Li.

Lady Li cried fiercely, but Father Chen got impatient and told her to be quiet.
