Chapter 158 Zhou Chunfeng Promoted to General

Ming Ye came back from the city and of course brought back the good news that Zhou Chunfeng was promoted to general.

When Jiang Li heard this, she was stunned for a moment.

She didn't know how many levels it took to go from deputy general to general, but she knew the general's power and rank. As she came to her senses, she couldn't hide the excitement in her eyes.

She was sincerely happy for Zhou Chunfeng. She always knew that Zhou Chunfeng would not let her and the children down.

Although I haven't received a letter from Zhou Chunfeng about his safety for a long time, the news of his promotion is enough.

Yuan Niang, who was serving in the room, was sincerely happy for her master, "Madam, you are so happy."

Jiang Li felt embarrassed by the teasing and gave her a helpless look: "Of course I'm happy. This kind of good thing would definitely lead to a celebration banquet."

"That's right. When General Zhou returns triumphantly, our island will definitely host a grand celebration banquet to welcome him back."

"Good idea." Jiang Li couldn't help but laugh as she spoke. "However, I can celebrate for him alone. While Sister Lan has gone to bed, can you warm up a pot of wine for me? I'll enjoy it and have a good sleep."

Jiang Li has weaned Lan Jie'er, who is one year old, and she hasn't drunk alcohol for a long time.

The moon is beautiful tonight. Although we are thousands of miles apart, let’s have a drink to celebrate for that man.

"Yes, ma'am." Yuan Niang smiled warmly and said respectfully, "I'll cook two more dishes for you to go with the wine."

"Okay, no need to be extravagant, just stir-fry half a plate of soybeans."

"Yes."

Yuan Niang responded with a smile and quietly left the room.

Yanzhou City, Cheng Mansion, Main Courtyard.

Because of today's events, Deputy General Cheng stayed overnight in the main courtyard and had a hearty conversation with his wife.

Liang had never thought that she would hear a word of regret from a straightforward warrior like Yu Cheng Yizhong. When she heard it, she actually found it a little funny.

Laughing at this man's foolishness and naiveté, how could a few words warm a heart that had already chilled to the bone? From now on, they would just be living together. This would bring hope to the family and help the children's future, so Liang naturally showed her usual understanding side.

Cheng Yizhong certainly knew that his eldest wife had gained face in front of Lady Li, and she had even become sworn sisters with Lady Li.

This was a good thing for him and his family. All the generals knew the secrets of Changsheng Island. Ever since he learned that the wife of Old Zhou was the owner of Changsheng Island, he knew that Old Zhou's ship was more stable than anyone else's.

What surprised Cheng Yizhong was that Que Ge'er was still alive and was being raised by Lady Li.

This piece of news almost made him lose his consciousness, and he suddenly understood many things, including that Lady Li had helped his eldest wife.

It seems that Lady Li, as the island owner, is willing to be on good terms with the Cheng family for the sake of the child.

Knowing that Que Ge'er was still alive, Cheng Yizhong, as his uncle, was naturally excited. He also knew that Lady Li was devoted to cultivating her child's knowledge, and it seemed that she really cared about Que Ge'er.

"Tomorrow, I will go to the government office to discuss this matter with the Prime Minister's disciples. My master is fighting on the front lines. Although Brother Que is not raised in our family, we must make more plans for this child's future."

Liang sat at the dressing table combing her hair, blinking in confusion and looking at the man sitting on the armchair in the outer room: "Master, are you planning to do something for Brother Que?"

Cheng Yizhong put down the teacup in his hand and said leisurely, "The students taught by the Prime Minister are naturally better than those taught by outsiders."

Hearing this, Liang understood what the head of the family meant and agreed, "That's a good idea. Madam Li was planning to send her child to school in the city when a private school opens in the future."

"There are so many children in the private school, and how can they be as detailed as the teachers at the private school? Madam, don't worry about this matter. I will leave everything to you."

Liang didn't want to intervene at all, and even if she wanted to, she couldn't do anything because the women in the inner courtyard of the mansion didn't know any knowledgeable teachers.

If she had this ability, she would have invited him for Jing'er long ago. Without him, the boy could only practice calligraphy alone in the room all day long.

Liang put down the wooden comb, and seeing that it was getting late, she stood up from the dressing table and walked towards the bed.

However, she didn't care about the man outside, or rather, she didn't care at all whether her master would stay overnight.

Seeing this, Cheng Yizhong's face turned awkward, knowing that the lady was still angry with him. He quickly wiped his feet, put on his shoes, and hurried back to the inner room to rest with the lady.

When Liang saw him coming, she didn't say much. She lay down inside naturally, covered herself with the quilt and moved sideways.

Cheng Yizhong, who wanted to be affectionate with the lady, was ignored and didn't know what to say.

Thinking back on all the years when he had wronged the lady, he knew he was in the wrong, but he could only rub his nose and go to bed with his clothes on, looking dejected and dusty.

A dreamless night——.

Eternal Life Island.

After the spring plowing, the people of Changsheng Island are not like the villagers of Shilitun in the past. Everyone still has endless work to do, either fishing in the sea or hunting in the mountains.

Although there are only a few mountains on Changsheng Island, there are many wild animals on the mountains, and both men and women are good hunters.

The enthusiastic tribesmen often sent nutritious game to Jianglin Pavilion. For this, Jiang Li was grateful for the kindness of the tribesmen.

Every morning, Jiang Li not only took three or two people up the mountain, but also took the little girls from the school up the mountain in batches to identify herbs.

Although the herbs grown on the island are very limited, it does not prevent Jiang Li from talking about the growth items of Chinese herbal medicines in medical books. The difference between Chinese and Western medicine is that one must first learn to recognize the herbs before studying medicine.

Without the protection of the barrier on Changsheng Island, the tribesmen went from being worried and afraid at first to gradually adapting to their inner fears under the leadership of the new island owner, Lady Li. Everyone took on the legacy left by their ancestors.
