Chapter 69: After the Catastrophe
It has been two days since the night attack, and in these two days, many families have lost their pillars, and many families have been separated and their families have been destroyed!
Li Yunbao not only had to serve the two wounded at home for two days in a row, but also went to visit other people's homes in Xiaoqili one by one. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
A few days ago, everyone sat together and drank wine and chatted, but after the enemy attack, only Shen Xingnan, Hou Hai, Zhang Dali, and Xie Xiaodan survived, and the others stayed on this land forever.
Some, like Wang Xiaoqi's family, only survived his wife, eldest son Da Shu, second son Ershu, and the old parents and youngest son Xiao Shu were not spared.
The Zhao Wu family, who did not deal with Shen Xingnan, was left with only a widowed mother to live alone because of his death in battle.
The most tragic is like the Lin Qi family, where he and his young wife and infant son died together.
There are also Sun Wu, Li Si, Wang Ermazi, etc., and there are only some old, weak, sick and disabled people left in the family.
Li Yunbao took Xing'er to the door one by one to deliver the funeral ceremony in the past two days, and did not help Zhang Luo for the funeral.
It's not that she, Li Yunbao, is unwilling to help, but now how many of them are complete in the entire pass? My family is unscathed, and now if you go to the door with good intentions, even if you want to help out of good intentions, people are afraid that they will feel pierced in their hearts, and they will not be able to help but feel jealous and hateful when they see you, right?
In order not to sting people's hearts, Li Yunbao closed the door to live his life after giving some memorial gifts to each family, and there were also Zhang Dali and Xie Xiaodan's families who did the same thing as her, and they basically didn't go out.
Some people who have a little savings also invited suona to blow and blow, and those who have no money spend some money to buy a thin coffin and bury it in a hurry, and what is even poorer is that a straw mat is wrapped and buried.
Outside, the crying, firecrackers, and suona sounds of the days continue to sound every day, and Shen Xingnan and Hou Hai in the house are lying on the kang near the window in the middle room on the soft cushion, looking very comfortable on the surface, but in fact, these two people are protesting in their hearts.
Not for anything else, because the two of them have large and small wounds on their bodies, because of this Li Yunbao, he made a big deal to let them rest in bed and recuperate, and they were not allowed to go out and run blindly.
Brother An has been staying at home honestly for the past two days, Brother An said that he is a good baby to accompany his father and uncle, in fact, Li Yunbao knows that his son is very sensible, and he is very honest and well-behaved when he knows that the situation is not right now, but more importantly, the foodie attribute of this little guy has been lit up again.
Li Yunbao has been making food for the wounded all day and night for two days, and this morning Li Yunbao also took out the shark fin in the space and boiled it for the two men to eat.
Shen Xingnan fortunately knew what he was eating, so he was happily enjoying his wife's loving breakfast, but Hou Hai didn't know, he had never seen this thing in his life, let alone eaten it.
Apricot also said that she was very puzzled by this shiny thing, and they asked what this was when they were eating, and in the end, Xiao Baozi said that it was a fan with a serious face!
Hou Hai and Xing'er looked at Shen Xingnan with disbelief, this person ate calmly and didn't speak at all, okay, he is a good husband and a good father, since his son said so, then this can only be a fan, so after he finished eating the things in his bowl, he nodded firmly at Hou Hai's brothers and sisters.
Seeing that they were so bored that they could even flip out flowers after eating shark fin, Li Yubao turned out the rice paper that his son practiced calligraphy, boiled the paste and pasted it repeatedly for a few layers, and then cut out one hundred and eight small squares, and completed the first playing card of the Great Holy Dynasty after writing and painting for half a sound.
It took him half an hour to finally teach the three of them, and then the four of them started two hundred and four, and Xiao Baozi was happily helping with stickers.
Talking and laughing, someone shouted outside the courtyard: "Are Shen Xingnan and Brother Shen at home?"
Hearing the shouting of people outside, Li Yunbao hurriedly asked Hou Hai to collect the poker, and she herself quickly went down the kang to open the door.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw a well-dressed burly man standing at the door, because Li Yunbao didn't know this person, he could only ask,
"What's the matter with you, master?"
"Oh, you are Brother Shen's daughter-in-law, I'm Zhang Shan, Brother Shen is at home?" It turned out that the man at the door was Zhang Shan, the captain of the pass.
"Here, Master Zhang, please speak." So saying, he went to the courtyard, opened the courtyard door, and led the man into the house.
Entering the house, Shen Xingnan and Hou Hai had already come down from the kang and had already come to the door to greet Captain Zhang.
"My subordinates have seen Captain Zhang." When the two of them saw Captain Zhang enter the door, they all clasped their fists and saluted.
Captain Zhang replied heartily, "Don't be polite, two brothers, I don't want to come and talk to you if I have nothing to do, don't be polite to my own brothers." ā
Hearing him say this, Shen Xingnan didn't politely introduce him into the room again, the three of them sat down on the kang, Li Yunbao hurriedly made a pot of tea and brought it up, and Xing'er also helped to put the box on the kang table in the middle of the big kang.
After doing these things, Li Yunbao took Xiao Baozi and Xing'er and retreated to the back room, closed the door and started needlework on the kang, and did not disturb the men chatting outside.
"Lord Zhang, please use tea, I don't know what the so-called matter of the adults coming to find their subordinates this time?"
Zhang Shan, as Jiang Qianhu's cronies, must have no time to come and chat with him at this time.
Since it's not for small talk, there must be something, but what is it? Is it a matter of spies? Still is......
For a while, he couldn't figure out the other party's intention to come, so Shen Xingnan beckoned Zhang Shan to drink tea and sat quietly at the end of the kang, waiting for Zhang Xiaowei, who was sitting on the kang head opposite, to speak first to express his intention.
"Brother Shen, you also know, this battle of our Shuanglong Pass can be described as a heavy loss, here and outside the dead and wounded nearly 2,000 people, these days after everyone's affairs are done in the camp should be issued a pension, after these families have gone, or the rest of the army is too young to take over, only the old and weak women and children are left, all of them must be arranged to the rear, we will have new personnel to add in."
Zhang Shan, who was straight, took a sip of tea and spoke, and after speaking, he looked at Shen Xingnan opposite.
Shen Xingnan thought about Zhang Shan's purpose in saying this, but he still asked him with doubts on his face, "What do you mean by this, my lord?"
"Brother Shen, I admire you for being a man, first he reported it regardless of his own body, and then he saved General Jiang in the back, and finally he was able to fight bravely to protect the safety of Shuanglong Pass, you have a lot of credit for this battle."
Of course, you kid also found out that the enemy has a secret nail buried in us, what a talent, but unfortunately people in this world always have to be jealous! Captain Zhang thought to himself.
"Don't say that, my lord, I'm ashamed."
"Eh, it should be your credit, General Jiang will not forget, but you also know that since you were punished last time because your information was inaccurate, and you were exiled for a crime, and you have only been here for less than a month, so General Jiang is not too out of line even if he has the intention to promote, although your credit is not small......"
Speaking of this mountain, he may have felt a little embarrassed, and his voice became smaller and smaller until he finally silenced.
In fact, this righteous and straightforward man is also scolding his mother in his heart, Brother Shen is really good in his opinion, he is a man, patriotic, excellent in martial arts, bold and careful, these things are very appetizing to him Zhang Shan.
But when discussing the merits for Shen Xingnan in the morning, there were so many little fleas bouncing endlessly, either that people were guilty, or that they were not qualified to be promoted too quickly, and there were even people who pulled out the matter of lying about the military situation before, etc.
His grandmother's, these people are all suffering from pink eye and can't see that others are better than themselves, what the hell are they lying about the military and not having enough qualifications?
If it weren't for General Jiang, would you be willing to do this offending thing?
