Chapter 1248: Give it a go
Mrs. Qi leaned over to take a look and said with a smile: "This is Ling'er is hungry and wants milk, Mrs. Cheng is afraid that she hasn't fed Ling'er for several days." ”
The woman in the costume had a crimson face, how could she know that this Mrs. Qi was speaking so loudly, and she nodded embarrassedly, looking quite at a loss.
Mrs. Qi joked and said: "It is natural for my mother to breastfeed her infant child, Mrs. Cheng is shy, and I am also from here." After that, he looked around, lowered his voice and said, "There are all women here, not outsiders, so I don't think Mrs. Cheng will feed Ling'er here." ”
The woman in the costume was flushed with shame, and she looked better with blood on her face, but she didn't know how to refute it, and she couldn't speak for a long time.
The old man surnamed Qi, who had just been teased, was not far away, and saw the mother of the woman in military uniform carrying her child up to the city wall. Mrs. Qi took a sip and said, "This old man is not serious, it is really cowardly." ”
A woman beside him scolded loudly: "Old Xiucai, what are you looking at!" ”
The old man was stunned and said angrily: "How can this be true, it is difficult for the old man to be old!" ”
"Bah, do you want to see Madame's breastfeeding too? The old is not serious, and the people are old-hearted! ”
The old man was stunned for a moment, trembling with anger, stomped his feet suddenly, turned to leave, and said as he walked: "It's insulting to Sven, it's just insulting to Sven." ”
The woman in the costume looked unhappy, and Mrs. Qi hurriedly pulled the shouting woman and said, "You keep quiet, I'm afraid that people don't know, it's so loud that even those robbers can hear it." ”
The woman stuck out her tongue, grinned, and kept silent.
The woman in uniform said calmly: "No matter what Mr. Qi's character is, he can be regarded as a contribution to Xiuchuan County, which is much stronger than those who abandon the city and flee, and can spare people when they are sparing, don't arrange him like this in the future, he is alone, and his life in this life is hard enough." ”
"Madam is kind-hearted, this Qi Xiucai has done a lot of things that lack morality......"
"Okay, what can he do as a scholar? He can't pick his shoulders, he can't lift his hands, he doesn't have anything to eat, and he thinks of himself as high, and he doesn't want to beg along the street, and if you don't let him sneak some food and drink, he won't starve to death.
Besides, Qi Xiu has a problem with stealing things, but his temperament is not bad, and he is a warm-hearted person.
And who has seen the matter of the widow of the Zhang family and this Qi Xiucai with their own eyes? One by one, hearsay, all these shadowless things, are you not afraid of chewing your tongue and rotting your tongue? Mrs. Qi stood up and reprimanded everyone for the woman in uniform.
Otherwise, a habitual thief would have been sent to the government for detention, how could he still be allowed to this day.
Everyone knows that this old man has the problem of taking sheep by hand, and he has not starved to death over the years, and most of them still have a blind eye.
"Who says it's not, in fact, it's quite hard to think about Lao Xiu's life." Someone said the first sentence, and someone said the second sentence.
"I heard that he used to be very good at learning, and he was selected for Xiucai, but later he was impersonated by money during the government exam, and the old Xiucai couldn't stand it for a while, so he got heart loss, and he didn't see it well, so he became what he is today, otherwise even if he didn't get famous, what is the difficulty of going to a private school to teach dolls to read and read to support his family?"
"Yes, yes, I've heard people say it's pitiful." A few people whispered, the war had just ended, and there was still time to say that the parents were short.
The woman in uniform shook her head and shook the toddler in her arms.
The middle-aged woman cautiously glanced outside the city, hurriedly retracted again, patted her chest, looked palpitating, and asked sadly: "Wanci, when do you think Cheng'er will come back?" ”
"Mother, don't worry, he'll be back, you can go down first with Ling'er."
The middle-aged woman took the baby, the baby was a little unhappy, the woman in uniform hurriedly approached and touched the baby's face, hummed a few times, and listened to the doll's babbling a few words, and finally held back the cry.
The middle-aged woman looked at the situation on the city wall, gently patted and coaxed the child, lowered her voice and asked, "Wanci, what do you think my mother can do to help everyone?" ”
Mrs. Qi said with a smile: "Sister Cheng, don't worry about it, take care of Ling'er, don't let Mrs. Cheng be distracted, that's a great achievement." ”
Mrs. Qi looked at the woman in military costume, and then at the baby boy in the arms of the middle-aged woman, and sighed enviously, "Sister Cheng, you said how virtuous you were in your last life, Master Cheng needless to say, you are an all-round talent in civil and military affairs, and you can't find a second one within a radius of hundreds of miles."
Look at Mrs. Cheng again, she is also a woman who can't be found with a lantern, it is really a match made in heaven, which is enviable. ”
The middle-aged woman smiled humbly and said, "Where is Mrs. Qi, Ling Lang is also a talent." ”
"What kind of talent is he, he is far worse than Master Cheng."
Seeing that the two of them were complimenting each other here, she couldn't laugh or cry, and hurriedly sent the middle-aged woman down the city wall with Ling'er in her arms.
After the two of them left, the woman in military uniform looked cold, and the stones and rolling wood under the arrow stacks of the city wall were scattered, and there was not much left.
Looking at the people in the city who gritted their teeth and persevered, the heart of the woman in military uniform gradually sank, even if she could still defend the Liukou once to attack the city, she was afraid that it would be difficult to defend it next time.
There are still two days to go, and I don't know where they are now, or if these rogues will come back to attack the city.
The woman in uniform whispered, although she had extravagant hopes, but she also knew that these rogues were like flies that saw blood, and they would not retreat easily until they sucked clean. Fortunately, the rogues did not have siege equipment, and the city walls were still intact, otherwise the situation would have been even more difficult.
With the city walls that are not high, but they are enough to resist the rogues, the people of the city have survived these days.
Once a rogue attacked the city and saw the blood that was close at hand, the woman in military uniform did not dare to ask for anything else, just hoped that these villagers who had never experienced a fight would not faint in fright.
The city is still there, but it is in danger, but the woman in military uniform cannot resort to others, so as not to disturb the people's hearts.
The woman in military uniform took a deep breath, no matter what, she had to hold Xiuchuan City and wait for them to come back. A hint of determination flashed in the heart of the woman in military uniform, only by taking the risk of giving it a try could there be a glimmer of hope for survival.
The woman in uniform swept around, and there were more than 500 people on the city wall, and less than 10% of the men were counted. At this moment, there is no other way, just sit back and wait for death, it is better to give it a go as soon as possible.
The woman in uniform made up her mind and summoned those who could run and had some strength to go out of the city with them to carry the rolling logs and stones. 8)
