Chapter 143: Labor Army

Dong Rong wanted to help, but the two refused to live or die, and later Steward Zhang went to borrow two cooks from the Yang family to help with Mobo, which solved the big problem of lack of manpower.

The sun showed the horizon in the hustle and bustle of everyone, and slowly rose overhead. Mo Bo took a steward of the Meng family to the door of the small courtyard together, and planned to call Steward Zhang to go out to the barracks together, but he didn't want to see Dong Rong change into a man's outfit and walk out.

He was immediately dumbfounded, and was about to open his mouth to dissuade him, but Steward Zhang stretched out his finger and pointed to the two carriages covered with oilcloths in the courtyard and said with a smile, "Our wife specially ordered six pigs yesterday and ordered us to take them to the barracks together. ”

When the Meng family steward heard this, his eyes immediately lit up, and he laughed, "Thank you for your wife's thoughtfulness, the labor army is a good errand, let's follow the border army today and eat a big pot of meat!" ”

"Speaking of which, I've never been to the barracks, if I'm scared for a while, Brother Meng will have to cover up for my younger brother." Steward Zhang smiled and played haha with that Steward Meng, and Steward Meng didn't know that Dong Rong's fake man was weird, so he urged Mo Bodao, "Brother Mo, let's go quickly, it's not good to go in if you miss the hour." ”

Mo Bo was forced to nod his head, and finally took advantage of everyone to get into the car and whispered to Dong Rong, "Mrs. Cao, you are a little reckless in acting like this. Once you get the barracks, you have to be cautious. If we get into trouble, our husband won't be able to save my wife. ”

Dong Rong sneered in her heart and muttered to herself, if your husband can be saved, will my younger brother be locked up in the barracks and suffer? But her face was positive, "Xie Mobo reminds me that as long as I see that Brother Ping is safe and sound, I will be relieved, and I will definitely not take one more step." ”

Mo Bo couldn't, so he had to take her in a car and carefully explain the taboos in the barracks. In the end, seeing that she seemed to be listening very seriously, her slightly frowning brow was relieved. This woman of the Dong family is thoughtful and very knowledgeable, so she will not cause trouble for her husband.

As soon as the three carriages went out of the courtyard, they went to the barracks outside the east gate, and the large camp of the border army was directly built on the halfway of a low mountain where the terrain was not too steep. Next to the barracks, there is a stream flowing down from a mountain spring, and it is also very convenient to use water on weekdays. But when she got closer, Dong Rong was a little sad.

Originally, in her imagination, anything called a barracks, although it was dilapidated, would at least be kept tidy. But she forgot that there was no word for "housekeeping" in this time and space, and as soon as the carriage reached the foot of the mountain, she almost vomited with the strong stench that wafted from the wind. It was an indescribable smell, perhaps mixed with foot odor, feces and urine odor, etc., which can be described as extremely complex.

Steward Zhang turned his head to look worriedly, but saw that although his master had a white face, his back was straight, so he put Gao Ti's heart back.

Steward Meng led everyone around the gate of the front camp and went to the gate of the back camp with a familiar car. The nephew of the Meng family happened to be a partial general on duty, and when he heard the report from the soldiers, he hurriedly greeted him. He glanced at the three carriages parked outside the camp gate as he walked, and was a little unhappy, he had already taken the risk of letting people in, how could there be carriages?

The three stewards are all people who often walk outside, and their skills in observing words and emotions are naturally first-class. Almost as soon as he met General Meng Bi, Steward Zhang lifted the linoleum cloth on the two cars behind him and said with a smile, "Old man Meng is worried that the brothers in the camp did not drink his birthday wine. No, we specially asked us to send a few pigs, and everyone ate two pieces of meat at night, which was also a piece of kindness to his old man! ”

Seeing that the two cars were full of red and bright pork, the dozen or so soldiers guarding the door were all staring with joy.

General Meng Bi knew that this steward was not telling the truth, how could he have made up for food more than a month after his birthday? But only a fool would refuse such a thing as a gloss to his face. He smiled more enthusiastically, and replied loudly, "Uncle is the most distressed junior, then I will accept it." ”

After saying that, he waved his hand and motioned for the soldiers to open the camp gate and move pork inside, and finally said, "It's not easy for a few stewards to come once, come in and have a cup of tea before leaving." ”

Everyone naturally responded and went inside, but Dong Rong stood by the carriage and did not move. Sure enough, when the soldiers who stepped forward to carry the pork passed by, they smelled the fragrance coming from the first carriage and asked curiously, "What is in this cart?" ”

Steward Zhang smiled and said, "It's not a good thing, it's just a few baskets of big meat buns." After speaking, he pointed to Dong Rong and said, "Our son admires brave warriors the most in his life, this time I came to visit Mr. Meng, and when I heard that there was a border army near the left, I was worried about following to see how strict the real military camp was." Therefore, last night, I specially ordered a lot of meat buns to be prepared below, and I was thinking about sending them together as a meeting gift for the brothers. ”

"Big meat buns?" When the soldiers heard this, they immediately drooled. The pork didn't move anymore, and he looked at General Meng with red eyes.

Mo Bo had already whispered a few words to General Meng at this time, he was feeling a little embarrassed, and when he looked up and saw the appearance of his soldiers, he smiled and scolded, "If you want to eat, take it, but don't waste Dong Gongzi's kindness, eat and drink enough to lead the guests to walk around." By the way, there are dozens of horses in the stables recently, so if you like it, you can go there and walk around. ”

When the soldiers heard this, they jumped into the carriage with cheers, grabbed the buns and ate them, and some of them did not forget to stuff them into their arms, and soon the placket of the oil was wet.

Boss A quietly hid the basket behind him, and when he saw that a soldier near him was well fed, he went up and stuffed a piece of silver in his hand. The soldier was also a clever man, his eyes rolled and he quietly retreated, and then led Dong Rong and the two into the camp gate, turned left and right, and soon arrived near the stable.

The soldier covered his nose in disgust and scolded, "These waste scholars, I'm afraid they are lazy and haven't cleaned up the horse manure, and they stink to death." ”

Boss A smiled very obediently and said that they would go in and take a turn, and at the end another piece of silver was stuffed over, and the soldier ran happily to lie down on the grass not far away and look at the sky.

Dong Rong raised her eyebrows and secretly praised this as a shrewd man. But she didn't have time to think about it, and she stepped forward in three steps and two steps and pushed open the door of the stables.

Rows of cubicles were built in the stables facing north, and horses were sticking their heads out to eat grass, and a dozen wheelbarrows were placed in the long outer corridors, and the bodies were filled with horse manure. In the empty space on the inside of the corridor lay a dozen soldiers, I don't know if they slept late last night, or if the afternoon was too comfortable, some of them still holding brooms and shovels in their hands, but now they leaned on one side and snored loudly.

Dong Rong tried her best to distinguish for a long time before she recognized that the thin black boy who was pressed in the middle was her younger brother, and her heart instantly felt as if she had been pricked by a needle, and her eyes were in pain. Her younger brother, who she cared for in every way, was actually called as the most lowly slave, and if General Wu was in front of her at this moment, she couldn't wait to pounce on him and bite off a few pieces of his meat.

"Jiayi, can you listen to me?"

A Yi bowed his head and replied, "Naturally, when the son left, he ordered that both groups A and B would be dispatched by Mrs. ”

"Well, after this is over, find an opportunity to make General Wu's house more 'lively', so that he doesn't like to be angry with the child when he has nothing to do."

"Yes, ma'am." A suddenly lowered his head by three points, and secretly warned himself in his heart that he must not offend women in the future.

Xu Mao is fat, and he has suffered countless hardships since he was imprisoned in the military camp, but the strange thing is that there is no shortage of fat on his body. So, his classmates like to hug him as a pillow, and every time they see him being pressed to complain, they will laugh non-stop, which naturally has become the only joy in a miserable life.

At this time, he was sleeping soundly, but he faintly felt that the smell of horse manure, which he hated most on weekdays, seemed to be mixed with the smell of food. He searched around with his nose in a half-dream, and finally saw two people standing at the door of the stable, one of whom looked familiar.

He hurriedly pushed Dong Ping beside him, and shouted, "Jun... Juncheng, get up quickly! It seems to be... Your sister is here! ”

Dong Ping rubbed his eyes, very annoyed that he disturbed his rare good dream, but before he could complain, he really saw his sister standing at the door smiling at him.

He suddenly turned over and jumped up, and he didn't care about stepping on the arms and legs of a classmate, and ran over in three or two steps, "Sister, sister!" What are you doing here? Am I not dreaming? This is a barracks! ”

As he spoke, he was about to rush forward and hug his sister, but Jia Yi quickly stopped him and reminded, "Madame has a little master in her belly." ”

Dong Ping immediately stopped, holding his hands and not knowing what to do. Dong Rong glared at Jia Yiyi, took the initiative to reach out and hug his younger brother, and said while patting him on the shoulder, "Brother Ping, it's my sister who is here." ”

Dong Ping tried his best to suppress the idea of crying, but greedily sniffed the sweet fragrance on his sister's body, "Sister, it stinks here, why are you here?" ”

"I heard that more than a dozen suave young scholars fell into the hands of demons, so I hurried here, there are not many opportunities for such a beautiful woman to save the hero."

"Sister, you..." Dong Ping couldn't laugh or cry when he was joking by his sister, he still wanted to say something, all the scholars were already sober, and they all ran forward excitedly and talked around their sisters and brothers, looking at the posture, as if Dong Rong was also their own sister.

Dong Rong motioned for A to put down the basket of busy meat buns, and said with a smile, "I guessed that you are suffering here, this is a freshly steamed meat bun, let's pad your stomach first." When I go out later, I'll cook braised pork for you myself! ”

As soon as she was halfway through her words, the scholars had already lifted the white cloth towels on the basket, and the three of you and five of me snatched up the buns.

Dong Ping naturally didn't fall behind, he had one in his mouth and three more in his hand. He asked vaguely while taking a big bite of it, "Sister, are you okay at home?" I just dreamed that I was going home..."

Dong Rong pulled her sleeve to wipe off the horse manure on her forehead for her younger brother, and responded, "The family is fine, don't worry about it." But you, if you can save me a little heart, I really don't want anything more. ”

(At least come out early, change it first, insist on another chapter at night, but it's not sure when, coax your son at any time, haha, thank you for your support, the flowering period will definitely work harder!) Come on! )R638
