Rong An also felt very powerless in his heart, "What's more, in terms of rewards for meritorious deeds, the rewards for different achievements are also different, the generals are more than ten taels!

"It's not that easy for the imperial court to take out such a huge sum of money willingly!"

Huang Qingyu hesitated for a moment, but still didn't say something, "It's just the ordinary soldiers who suffered."

The same throwing their heads and blood, but the money they got in the end was only a mere ten taels!

Rong An twitched the corners of his lips, and said in a low voice: "Actually, they don't only have this little money in their hands. Before Chen Guozhang was ordered by the Queen Mother to work in the army, each of them got about ten taels.

"And some of the spoils we collected will be distributed, and so on, at least each person can have more than 50 taels.

"Those who are good at drilling will have more hands.

"Even though it's not really a lot of money, it's worth taking it home.

"Even a small business is enough."

Only then did Huang Qingyu feel relieved, "Where's the food in the army?" She also lowered her voice and said, "My sister always says the food is not bad, but if I ask too many questions, she will just fool me!"

"Food," Rong An shook his head, "How can you pay attention to food and drink when marching and fighting!

"Sometimes when you fight continuously, you don't even have time to drink your saliva, let alone eat.

"Training is required even when you are not fighting, and it consumes a lot of energy.

"But think about it, how much is the consumption of hundreds of thousands of troops, eating horses and feeding them every day?
"If you eat refined grains, you can't afford them at all.

"The fine food in the army is reserved for the wounded and sick, and it has to be the seriously wounded or seriously ill.

"The rest, from the commander to the ordinary soldiers, all eat the same coarse grains.

"The dishes are all kinds of big pot dishes. Unless there are celebrations or important festivals, you can't eat meat. It's good to see oily smell in the dishes."

He whispered: "That is, we seized a batch of supplies and got a lot of air-dried meat before, so the food became better."

Huang Qingyu couldn't help her eyes flushed, "So it's like this..." My sister was spoiled and spoiled since she was a child, how has she ever suffered so much!

Rong An sent out the waiters in the house, and then said with a smile: "You don't know, the food in the army is even worse, and the person in charge of the first battalion is an old wounded soldier who doesn't know how to cook and likes to cook.

"At that time, we ate with our eyes closed, purely to survive!
"Later, it was your sister who went there and found a general with excellent cooking skills, and asked this general to take charge of the head camp, and our life became easier.

"This General Xiao still likes to think about things. He can make some snacks for your sister every day. Although the quantity is not large, it is the maximum he can do."

Huang Qingyu wiped away the tears from her eyes, "Well, my sister is very smart!"

Rong An smiled, "For this, all the soldiers in the army are grateful to me! I can only be ashamed!"

Huang Qingyu also laughed.

What's more, there was a servant girl outside reporting back: "Miss Hu is awake."

The two got up and went to Huang Qingyu's room.

Hu Yueniang had already arranged her clothes and her bun, and smiled embarrassedly, "My body is getting heavier and heavier, and I am getting tired more and more easily. I fell asleep while talking."

"We are all on our own," Huang Qingyu said hastily, "Sister Yue, why bother to say such things! By the way, how is the matter with my sister's house?"

Knowing that she was talking about He Li, Hu Yueniang said, "It's almost there. Their family members have all gone to Beijing. They have been wanting to see me, but I haven't."
