The general's wife through time

Chapter 323 Hidden merit and fame

Li Changze's eyes were slightly red.

Relief food!
Qin Chuan said that he went to pray in front of the tiankeng and really summoned the sacred beast, which moved the heavens and allowed the army transporting grain to arrive ahead of schedule!
It is difficult to defend a city when the mountains and rivers are broken and corpses are everywhere. After the war, it is even more difficult to save the lives of the people in the city and restore their previous lives in the devastated land. In the face of great disasters and life and death, status, position, righteousness, and integrity are so unworthy of mention. Even the gold, silver, and jewelry obtained through tomb robbing with great difficulty are no different from dirt and are useless.

In every critical moment, the Qin family army would appear in time to defend the city and the people. They would do what others could not do.

He finally understood why his father was so protective of Qin Mingyuan and Xue Tang, and even spared no effort to support the growing strength of the Qin family army.

Because, they deserve it.

Under the organization of the Qin Army and the Imperial Guards, the people received today's porridge, eggs, and pickles in an orderly manner. The porridge even contained a lot of diced bacon, which the poor people could only eat during the Chinese New Year.

Not only that, after finishing the meal, they also received seven days’ worth of food rations.

The people were filled with tears, and they thanked the emperor, the sacred beast, and the Qin army...

After returning to his temporary residence, Xiaobai paced back and forth in the yard, sighing.

It was obvious that it was Mother Tang who used the gate of time and space to bring the grain-transporting army to the so-called tiankeng, allowing the relief grain to arrive ahead of schedule. She had to tamper with people's memories and say that it was the divine beast's help that the Qin army prayed for. In order to tamper with people's memories about those advanced weapons, Mother Tang even said that the battle in which Donglin City defeated Dongyi was a battle in which divine soldiers sent from heaven to kill Yuduan and destroy Donglin City.

Such a great achievement, in this era without technology, has to be regarded as the work of gods.

Mother Tang is truly a person of hidden talent!
Tengshe slowly moved closer to Xiaobai, looking shy.

"Well, you are Xiao Bai. Seeing is believing. I admire you very much. Please take care of me in the future. I want to learn from you and be fearless. I will shoulder half the burden and share the worries for my master."

Xiaobai shook his head, forcing himself to come back to his senses from his myriad thoughts. Then, his pupils suddenly dilated, his heart beat fast, and his face was filled with fear.

The giant python stood upright in front of him, spitting out its tongue with malicious intent in its eyes...

Mom!

Bang bang!

Without saying a word, Xiaobai turned around and rushed into the house, threw himself at Xue Tang's feet and burst into tears.

"Mother Tang, help me, that rascal snake tried to bite me secretly, and I almost got poisoned by it, wow wow wow..."

Xue Tang: "..."

Qin Shuanyuan: "..."

Teng Snake, who was peeking out of the door with a curious look in his eyes, said: "???"

……

The sky was filled with rosy clouds and a gentle breeze blew through the quiet Dongliao City.

After eating and drinking, the people returned to their homes or temporary shelters to catch up on some sleep. Only Mo Bai and a few others were on the street. They came back from the next city, exhausted, and headed straight to Xue Tang's residence.

When they arrived at the gate of the county government office, several people stopped in surprise.

However, I saw that the ground at the door was neatly filled with small bamboo baskets. Some of the baskets were so worn out that a small piece of bacon could be seen from the holes in the baskets.

Mo Bai was just wondering what was going on when a few half-grown children came over with red eyes and bamboo baskets in their arms.

They put the bamboo basket on the ground and left without saying anything, but from their eyes one could see that they were reluctant to leave.

Meng Chen adjusted her expression, trying to put away her chivalrous temperament and become particularly amiable. She stopped a younger child and asked softly, "Why did you send the bacon back?"

The child burst into tears, and while crying, he glanced at the bacon and slurped his saliva.

Meng Chen quickly let go of his hand and said, "I, I don't mean anything else. Don't be afraid. I'm just asking."

As she spoke, she looked at Mo Bai and asked unconfidently, "Am I really that scary?"

To be honest, she is pretty, how could she scare a child so easily?

Today, she followed Mo Bai to discuss business with the villagers. She had no idea how many children she had scared to tears. She had fallen into deep self-doubt.

Mo Bai shook his head helplessly, "It should have nothing to do with you this time. He just couldn't bear to part with that piece of meat."

Hearing this, the child shyly lowered his head, wiped his tears, approached Mo Bai and Meng Chen, and shyly requested: "Can you please not tell my mother about my crying? Otherwise, my mother will scold me."

"Well, we won't tell." Meng Chen said.

"But you have to tell me what's going on!" Mo Bai said.

"Mother said that the Qin army had just fought a big battle and helped us take back our homeland. In order to prevent us from starving to death, they shared food with us and drank porridge with us for a few days. They shed blood and sweat and were injured, so they needed to take good care of their bodies. Now that we are no longer starving to death, these delicious foods should be given to the Qin army. We usually don’t have money to eat bacon, and now that we have someone to help us, we must not be greedy. When life is better, we will make money ourselves and eat meat during the New Year. As human beings, we must be loyal. It doesn’t matter if we are a little hungry and thin, but the people who stand in front of us and protect us with their bodies as shields must always be strong." At this point, the child took a last look at the bacon reluctantly and ran away crying.

He was worried that if he didn't leave, he would take the bacon back and eat it on the spot.

That was the best thing they could offer. It was a thank-you gift from his mother to the Qin family army. He couldn't touch it no matter what.

Seeing the people love the Qin Army in their own way, Mo Bai and Meng Chen felt a surge of warmth in their hearts. The next time there is a war, they will rush to the front line without hesitation and follow the Qin Army to protect the people of Dajing.

What is the meaning of life?
This kind of two-way struggle between the military and civilians is the best thing worth doing in the world.

"Have you decided?" Xue Tang asked symbolically when he heard Meng Chen say that he wanted to stay in Dongliao City with Mo Bai.

Meng Chen nodded slightly, handed Xue Tang a letter, and smiled awkwardly, "Princess, please pass this letter to my master."

"Well, good." Xue Tang didn't say much. After collecting the letter, he began to arrange Mo Bai. "After we leave, this place will be handed over to you. At this stage, in addition to collecting intelligence, the most important thing is to open up trade between Dongliao City and several nearby cities. The eldest prince is rich. As long as you can find necessities of life to provide him with, it will be easy to make money. There are many things to be rebuilt. You can only open up the situation as peddlers. Whether the people can eat meat every month in the future depends on you. It is hard work, but the price of food and clothing cannot be raised too much, so as not to hurt people's livelihood. You are an imperial merchant, and I believe in your vision, so regarding price control, I believe that the head of the Mo family knows better than me..."

By the time Xue Tang finished explaining, the sky outside was already starry and the lights were bright.

The door creaked open.

Knowing that Mo Bai had come out, Teng She subconsciously took a step forward.

Xiaobai took a step back subconsciously. What are you doing? We agreed to stay three steps away! If you come any closer, I will bite you!
Nothing, I just have something to say to my ex. Teng She took a half step back and called out to Mo Bai, "My ex, I heard you're going to stay here. I'm going back to Beijing with my goddess. Take care of yourself. Don't think of me no matter what happens. Our past is gone. Let's part ways now. Goodbye!"

Mo Bai: "..."

Damn, my tooth hurts!

Where did this beast learn these sour words?
It's as if he was dumped!
"Goodbye!" Mo Bai spat out two words coldly, flicked his sleeves, and strode away.

noob:"……"

She glanced at Teng Snake, who looked a little lonely.

So you asked her to help you find a sketchbook just to help her choose words and form sentences!
This farewell ceremony is just like you cheated on Mo Bai.

Cattle!
