A Military Doctor Became a Stepmom in Ancient Times

204 Returning to the Capital

When the two of them returned to the Ning family, it was almost dinner. The Ning family was jubilant.

When Ning Yue was not at home, they kept feeling that something was missing. It was not easy for them to return, so everyone planned to celebrate.

“Yueyue, what do you want to eat tonight? Mother will cook for you!” Madam He said happily to Ning Yue.

Seeing how happy everyone in the Ning family was, Ning Yue’s heart was as sweet as honey.

“Mother, I’ll come with you. Coincidentally, I bought some meat over there and planned to come back and cook it for everyone,” Ning Yue said with a smile.

The mother and daughter chatted and laughed as they went to the kitchen to work together. Ning Yue pretended to take out beef and curry from her backpack.

“Mother, this is beef. I’ll stew it with potatoes later.” Ning Yue took a few potatoes from the corner, peeled them, and washed them. They were bright and clean.

“Yueyue, these potatoes taste amazing. Your grandfather eats one every day. He eats it a lot and doesn’t get tired of it,” Madam He said as she cut the potatoes into pieces.

“Mother, there are still many ways to cook potatoes. Now that I’m back, I’ll cook different dishes for everyone every day.” Ning Yue washed the side dishes.

“By the way, Yueyue, I forgot to tell you that someone at home has been looking for you recently.” Madam He frowned tightly at the mention of this.

That person was very strange. He came and asked who sang the song.

At first, she thought it was funny. There was no rule about who could sing songs. Wasn’t a song made for people to sing?

Anyone could sing a song.

But that person said no. Whoever made it must be the one singing.

She even asked curiously what song was so amazing and specific.

“Who is it?” Ning Yue asked.

Madam He thought for a moment, described the person’s appearance, and told her the whole story.

Only then did Ning Yue react. “Mother, do you mean that person can sing these songs too?”

The songs she sang were all modern songs. Only the Ning family knew them. As she often sang at home, the Ning family naturally knew them too. If others knew them, there was only one possibility.

That person was very likely a transmigrator! Hearing these familiar songs, he was here to look for his fellow countryman.

She did not know if this person had come for good or evil. She had to be careful.

“That’s right. That person can sing them too. He had to find someone who can sing those songs. Your younger brothers all know how to sing them. In the end, that person said that they weren’t the right singers. What a strange person.”

Madam He shook her head as she spoke. She still remembered that person’s disappointed expression.

“Mother, did you tell him that I taught my younger brothers to sing?” Ning Yue asked.

When Madam He heard this, she glanced at Ning Yue and instantly understood what she was thinking. “What’s wrong? What happened?”

Ning Yue shook her head. She didn’t want to tell Madam He the truth. “I just think he’s so strange. Even my younger brother could sing the songs. Why did he say that he didn’t sing it?”

“Yes, I thought it was strange too. That person is really a strange person. He wants to see you no matter what. Yueyue, do you want to see him?” Madam He asked.

Ning Yue thought for a while and tilted her head to say to Madam He, “If he comes over, I’ll see him. If he doesn’t, forget it. I don’t want to specially look for him.”

A transmigrator. This was very unbelievable.

The two of them chatted for a while before dinner was ready. As soon as Old Master Ning was happy, he drank some wine.

“Yueyue, this home-brewed wine is really delicious,” Old Master Ning told Ning Yue with a smile as he tasted it.

During the week that Ning Yue had left, the brewery had also been working normally. After brewing the wine and selling it, they had obtained an unexpected profit on the first day.

The local rich man actually took the initiative to sign a contract with the Ning family. Every month, the Ning family would provide them with 200 catties of wine, and they would pay according to the market price.

Hearing this good news, Ning Yue was also very happy.

After everyone calmed down, the Empress Dowager suddenly mentioned another piece of news. “I remember that the second son, Ning Chen, is a major general in the military camp, right?”

“Yes, Grandmother. Why did you suddenly mention my second uncle?” Ning Yue asked.

“Let me tell you a piece of good news. He’s about to return to the capital to report his work. The crown prince said that in the battle at the border city, your second uncle made a great contribution and he wants to confer him the title of general. He’ll also be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver.”

“Really?” Ning Yue was extremely happy.
