Chapter 306: Funeral
As soon as the sky was bright, Ye Shaolong, who was sleeping comfortably, was woken up by a compact knock on the door. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoLast night, in order to dutifully let Su Xiaocao conceive a child, Ye Shaolong did not toss a lot.
It just so happened that Tang Feifei was pregnant with a child during this time, and he was also holding back for a few months. Last night was not a thousand miles away, but it was a refreshing end.
"It's that bastard who's arguing outside." Ye Shaolong sat up from the bed dissatisfied.
Su Xiaocao, who was in the same bed with him, was already dressed neatly, and heard Ye Shaolong's dissatisfied muttering. smiled at him and said, "Xianggong, let's get up quickly, I heard the voice just now that Brother Tieta was calling you." I think there's something urgent that you need to deal with. ”
At this moment, Su Xiaocao seems to have completely changed as a person, and she is a veritable good wife and mother. There is still a gap between Ye Shaolong and the past.
Seeing Su Xiaocao, who had become so virtuous, Ye Shaolong was stunned, and only came back to his senses after a long time, with a wry smile on his face, he shook his head and said to himself: "Women, they are really changeable!" ”
When Ye Shaolong got up and put on his clothes and came to the front room, he saw the iron tower standing at the door with his head down, the door was already wide open, but he didn't dare to walk in.
"What's the matter, I need you to come and sleep me so early?" Ye Shaolong stretched his waist and found that his waist was still slightly sore. I guess I must have been overworked last night!
A trace of embarrassment flashed in Tie Tower's eyes, and when Su Xiaocao opened the door just now, he remembered that the young master stayed here last night.
Realizing that he was very likely to spoil Ye Shaolong's good deeds, Tie Ta was also worried in his heart. That's why I didn't dare to enter the door directly, but waited outside the door.
Seeing Ye Shaolong ask about business, he remembered the purpose of this, and hurriedly reminded: "Young master, today is the day of the burial of our brothers who died in battle. Didn't you tell me that when they were buried, remember to tell you? ”
After the iron tower said this, Ye Shaolong also remembered it. For the good sons and daughters of Yejiabao who died in the war, Ye Shaolong once explained to the iron tower after the war that he had to handle their funerals well.
Unexpectedly, today was the day of their burial, and Ye Shaolong no longer cared about complaining about the iron tower disturbing his dreams. After saying goodbye to Su Xiaocao, he hurriedly walked towards the school with the iron tower.
"The families of the brothers who died in the war, you have all paid the full pension, right?" In order to condense the combat power of Yejiabao, Ye Shaolong has always taken this matter very seriously.
The tower had already understood Ye Shaolong's intentions from the beginning, and he also understood that it was Ye Shaolong's means to buy people's hearts. Although this method has disgraceful intentions in his opinion, the starting point is still kind, after all, Ye Shaolong is not talking about it, but really doing practical things.
"Young master, rest assured, the pension was delivered in full early in the morning, and those family members did not grieve too much about it, on the contrary, they felt that their son was sacrificing to protect Yejiabao, and they felt very honored." The tower told the truth.
After hearing this, Ye Shaolong nodded with satisfaction: "What you want is such an effect, as long as our Yejiabao can be united, we will not be afraid of those foreigners and widows." ”
While talking, the two of them had already arrived at the school grounds, where all the Yejiabao nurses had gathered, as well as the families of those who died in the battle.
At the edge of the school grounds, near the foot of the mountain, more than thirty new graves have been dug for the burial of the dead soldiers. Directly in front of the new grave, there is a huge stone tablet with the names of these soldiers who died in battle.
Ye Shaolong led everyone to bow and worship at the stone tablet. After three bows, they stepped forward one by one to offer incense, the whole process was serious, and the atmosphere was very solemn.
After everyone had put on the incense, I heard that the families of the dead began to weep in low voices. Gradually, a wave of sadness soon spread to everyone present.
Including Ye Shaolong, he was infected by the grief of nearly 100 family members of the deceased, and his nose was sour. Crystal tears have unconsciously burst into tears.
It's not that Ye Shaolong is really sad, but the sad emotion in front of him, which is so infectious that he can't control his emotions for a while.
Ye Shaolong's eyes swept over the family members who were crying in low voices, and assured them with a firm face: "Your husband, your son, your relatives. They are my good sons of Yejiabao, and they are the real heroes of Yejiabao. They shed their blood for Yejiabao, and everyone in Yejiabao will always remember them in their hearts. ”
Ye Shaolong's expression was solemn at the moment, and with the tragic meaning in his heart, these words really moved the listener.
Especially the families of the deceased, they are even more grateful to Ye Shaolong. Having lived all their lives, they have never seen anyone do so much and say so much for the people who died in battle. Not to mention the huge pension that Ye Shaolong also sent to his family members as soon as possible.
It is an indisputable fact that the Qing Dynasty was corrupt, especially in such a troubled era as now, and human life was as cheap as ants. Whether it is the proprietor or the general or the imperial court.
No one would go to such great lengths for their subordinates or for the soldiers who died in battle. There is definitely only one person in the world who can do Young Master Ye's job, and all the people present are moved. secretly cheered for Ye Shaolong in his heart, and strengthened their sense of belonging to Yejiabao.
Ye Shaolong already understood from everyone's looks that his speech just now was very successful. However, the iron still needs to be struck while it is hot, and the drama must be done enough.
Ye Shaolong was not only satisfied like this, he was silent for a moment, and then he heard him swear loudly to the families of the deceased: "With my Ye family here, I will ensure that you have no worries about food and clothing." ”
These words immediately made the families of the deceased even more excited, Yejiabao is undoubtedly a paradise in this troubled world. The Ye family's Tang family is wealthy, and no one does not believe Ye Shaolong's guarantee.
Su Can, who was hiding from a distance to watch the whole process, was also moved at this time. Ye Shaolong's words just now made him also enthusiastic. He is also a general and a person who has led soldiers, at this moment, no one knows better than him what Ye Shaolong is doing at this moment, and what kind of effect will he receive.
Su Can absolutely believed that after today, the combat power of Yejiabao, which was only a thousand courtyards, would definitely rise. It is not an exaggeration to say that these 1,000 people can be worth the thousands of troops and horses of the previous Qing court.
Wang Yinlin was by Su Can's side at the moment, and he said with a smile: "I didn't expect that Ye Shaolong is usually like a fool who eats and waits for death, but this will be a rare general, I feel a pity that such a person does not become a general and lead the army." ”
Su Can shook his head with a wry smile: "This kid has a donkey temper and does anything, unless he does it voluntarily." Otherwise, you're just holding a knife holder around his neck, and he's just going to mess things up. ”
