Rebirth Of The Di Daughter 19

They all spent two weeks on the road before they got to the first farming settlement. The head of the settlement had come to meet them at the entrance.

"Welcome, eldest miss Cao, second miss Cao and deputy general Shen." The gray haired man greeted fawningly.

The deputy general Shen nodded at the old man. He Yuan had noticed that this deputy general of the Western army was a man of few words. The reason for the deputy general leading the reinforcement instead of the Western general was due to the fact that there had been skirmishes with a group of outlaws at the Western border which began when word of general Shang going missing had spread.

The Eastern and Southern borders were not settled either and that was why they had been unable to send in reinforcements.

He Yuan stretched a little as he got down from the carriage. He sent a small smile to the village head in response to his greeting and the man's smile grew wider.
