Mrs. Wang, upon hearing this, was overwhelmed with sorrow.
However, she could not find the words to ask her son to stay. Their current escape south was not stable, as they were fleeing with dozens of families, encountering refugee armies and bandits along the way, and even the Wei Family lost many members.
Wei Jie had always been a protected figure; the family had sacrificed so much for them, so naturally, Wei Jie also felt obligated to protect the family. Now that there was another path that could lead the family back to their homeland, how could she stop him?
Tears fell from Mrs. Wang's eyes. Being in a foreign land made one even more homesick, especially since the aristocrats in Yangzhou did not accept them. The lifestyle, food, clothing, and even the language here were different. Mrs. Wang also longed to return home.
