The scorching sun is in the sky, and Guangxi has reached the height of summer. The crops on the roadside were steaming hot. Fortunately, there is a large row of willow trees standing straight on the side of the road, stretching out their long green arms to provide a shade for passers-by.

Since the expansion of the army by Wuxuan, a large number of new sisters have come to the splendid camp of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, most of them are girls from poor families who joined the Taiping Army with their fathers or husbands, and some are orphans or widows who are helpless and alone, everyone is in a similar situation, and their work is to sew clothes and flags for the Taiping Army, and take care of each other, and everyone has a simple and sincere smile on their faces.

Here Su Qiaomei is the object of envy of everyone, her man is a person with great ability, not only has his official position been promoted again and again, but the recent acceptance of Yang Xiuqing as a "righteous son" has also been known to everyone by these gossiping women. People are like that, if you are only a little taller than others, others will be jealous of you, and if you are much taller than others, others will come to you. Su Qiaomei is now the object of everyone's stammering, because her man has a bright future.

But Su Qiaomei was not happy, Yang Xiaoshan was transferred out of the Holy Treasury to go to the former army as an inspection envoy, and the number of times she came here was obviously much less. In the past, the two of them could still have trysts from time to time in Jintian Village, but now Yang Xiaoshan's residence is too far away from here, and he is in a public office, so he can't be as free as before, and Qiao Mei hasn't seen Xiaoshan for a long time. How much she was looking forward to Xiaoshan coming to see her, her heart was full of concern, but she could only bury her head in front work, and only when she was busy doing her work could she dilute the thoughts in her heart.

"Missed your man?" A middle-aged woman next to her looked at her and deliberately teased her.

"Where?" Su Qiaomei's face flushed, after all, she was still a little woman with a thin skin.

"Still say no? So what are you blushing about? The middle-aged woman continued to tease her.

"Goo-goo。。。。。。 The sound of Su Qiaomei's stomach growling diverted the topic of the middle-aged woman.

"You're hungry too, and you've been having rice for the last month. I've drunk porridge this month, and this porridge doesn't boil hunger. The middle-aged woman sighed.

"Now that there are twice as many people in the camp, there is not enough food to eat." Su Qiaomei was also worried.

"yes, people's hearts are a little fluctuating now. But this porridge is already very good for people like me, you don't know that there was a famine one year, and my wife even ate tree bark. I'm not afraid to drink porridge, I'm afraid that I won't have porridge to drink in the future. The middle-aged woman shook her head again and again when she recalled the poorest time in the past.

"I heard Sanniang say that there will be a grain team to deliver food today, and it will not run out of food." Su Qiaomei put down the needlework in her hand and comforted.

"That's good, that's good. A few more days, in the fall. As soon as this autumn grain is harvested, this year will be stable. The middle-aged woman seems to be relieved, most people still trust the kingdom of heaven very much, believing that this is only a temporary difficulty.

==========================

Yang Xiaoshan and Chen Yucheng rode horses together, walking side by side on the road to the Jinxiu Camp, they were followed by a convoy of grain, and the ruts left along the way were not deep, and it seemed that there was not much grain on the cart.

"Big brother, this is for your face. This grain truck was supposed to come and deliver the grain next month, but you had to advance it a month earlier. Chen Yucheng complained.

"If there is anything important two days earlier or two days later, it will be sent over anyway." Yang Xiaoshan held the reins in his hand, not caring about the way.

"Big brother, it's not that you don't know, it's not as good as before. This is a time when there is a shortage of green and yellow, and the food in our holy treasury is obviously much less. What's more, there are so many brothers who participated in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and Lao Wu said that he can barely provide for it now. Chen Yucheng said worriedly.

"Be quiet, this is a major military situation, don't be listened to by others." Yang Xiaoshan hurriedly reminded Chen Yucheng that he knew the current grim situation, due to the blockade of the Qing Demon, the food from outside could not be transported in at all, and the high-level of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom had long been worried about this. Not only food but also salt, the Holy Treasury now has money that cannot buy these daily necessities.

"You know why I was asked to come so early to deliver food? It's a shame for a young man to run to the women's camp. At this time, Chen Yucheng still felt that as soon as this thing touched a woman, he would be heroic and short-breathed.

Yang Xiaoshan looked at Chen Yucheng and smiled slightly, "You kid hasn't opened up yet, when you open up, you can't wait to run to the women's camp." ”

"Big brother, don't think I don't know, you're looking for an excuse to see your sister-in-law." Chen Yucheng grimaced.

Yang Xiaoshan was poked in his heart, and smiled helplessly, just now he felt that Chen Yucheng hadn't opened his mind yet, it seems that this kid is still ghostly.

"Big brother, when will you get married to your sister-in-law, the brothers are waiting to drink your wine." Chen Yucheng pulled his horse closer and quipped.

"Hey, I'm regretting it, I used to get married, and now I'm Yang Junshi's adopted son, and it's impossible to bypass him when I get married. Now that the war is so busy, how can he be free? Even Xiao Junshi has not finished getting married, so I will definitely not succeed. Yang Xiaoshan mentioned Xiao Chaogui, and couldn't help but think of Hong Xuanjiao again. He felt an inexplicable pain in his heart, and hurriedly forced himself not to think about it.

"Big brother, you can say this to me. If people can become the righteous son of Yang Junshi, they won't be able to catch up in eight lifetimes, what do you regret about it, you are in the blessing and don't know the blessing. Chen Yucheng said enviously, the two of them have a good relationship and speak more casually.

"Don't talk about it, it's almost there. You let the brothers who hold the grain work harder, and you can rest when you get to the camp, and everyone is very this hot day. Yang Xiaoshan had already vaguely seen the big locust tree in front of the Splendid Camp, where he and Qiaomei had agreed to meet before.

"Brothers, it's almost here, everyone is smart, and when it's time, I'll invite you to drink mung bean soup." Chen Yucheng raised his horsewhip and turned around and commanded.

When the brothers who were wilted by the scorching sun heard Chen Yucheng's words, they seemed to have been injected with stimulants, and they shook up their spirits, wiped the sweat off their faces with their sleeves, and drove the mule and horse carts straight to the splendid camp.

Finally arrived at the splendid camp, as soon as they entered the camp, everyone was busy loading and unloading food, and the female soldiers in the camp also came to help happily.

Su Qiaomei saw Yang Xiaoshan in front of the team at a glance, she was so excited that she put down the needlework in her hand and stood up suddenly, tears involuntarily burst out of her eyes, and she couldn't wait to run over and plunge into Yang Xiaoshan's arms.

Yang Xiaoshan had already thrown off his horse and ran over the crowd in the direction of Su Qiaomei. Soon he came to Qiao Mei.

Qiao Mei grabbed Xiaoshan's hand and ran to lead him into her barracks. At this moment, the barracks was empty, and the others were either working outside or helping to unload grain and grass. Without any words, the two hugged each other tightly. Their bodies fit together, their faces close together, Xiaoshan could even see the fine fluff on her face, smell the faint fragrance of her body, her breath became burning, and words were superfluous.

The two lip flaps slowly fit together, Qiao Mei couldn't help but tremble, her eyes were misty and moist, her face was flushed, the tip of her nose oozed fine beads of sweat, her lips were slightly open, revealing a fresh and moist tongue tip, pure mixed with charm, that cute look made Xiao Shan can't help but bow her head and hold her lip flap, and then gently wrap around the tip of her tongue, Qiao Mei trembled lightly to bear Xiao Shan's love, and her eyelashes were unconsciously wet......

After kissing for a long time, the two reluctantly parted. "You've lost weight." Both sides uttered the phrase almost simultaneously.

"Don't starve yourself." Xiaoshan looked at Qiaomei's emaciated cheeks distressedly, he had finally raised her fat, and now it seemed that she had lost weight again.

"No, I don't have much appetite in the summer." Qiao Mei knew that Xiaoshan felt sorry for herself, so she comforted him.

"By the way, I have a bag of salt here, you have to hide it, salt is rare now, don't be seen." Xiaoshan took out a small bag of salt from his arms and put it in Qiaomei's hand.

"Is there going to be a shortage of salt and food?" Su Qiaomei knew that Xiaoshan would not give her something for no reason.

"You don't care about this, it's a military secret, and you'd better not know it. In short, I won't let you starve, everything is with me. Xiaoshan hugged Qiaomei in his arms again.

"Big brother, the food is going to run out, and we have to go back." Outside the door was Chen Yucheng's voice, at an inopportune time.

Yang Xiaoshan had no choice but to let go of Qiaomei, "I'm leaving, lady, you have to take care." ”

"You too, Xianggong." Qiao Mei reluctantly let go of Xiaoshan's hand, how she wished Xiaoshan could stay for a moment longer.
