The letter mentioned that because of his good performance on the battlefield, he had been promoted to the commander of the Divine Arrow Battalion, and was in charge of the 1,000 soldiers and horses of this team. Now he is worried about the fact that his soldiers do not have winter clothes.

Shen Xiaoxia looked at him worried, he must do his best to help if he can help.

The Shen family's assets are not much, but it is still possible to donate a thousand sets of winter clothes to the soldiers on the border.

But this kind of thing must be discussed with Shen Zhong, and Shen Xiaoxia will definitely not make his own decisions about family matters, and will discuss with his father.

Shen Zhong listened to Xiao Xia's proposal, and touched the newly grown beard on his chin, this is a beard that has only grown this year, he always feels that he is not worthy of this title with the temperament of a farmer, so he also grew a beard from those dignitaries, anyway, he is not young anymore, and he is more stable when he grows a beard.

"That's a good proposal, but it's not enough for a thousand sets of cotton clothes!"

"But that's how strong our family is."

Shen Zhong was right to think about it, and now the whole family is relying on him to make a living. The amount of money he received from the imperial court for a year plus the harvest in his family's field is still considerable, but now the family's expenses are too great, and if it is left behind, it is really unthinkable.

"It's still a little less, two thousand sets! Recently, the expenses of each yard have been reduced, and there is still food, and it is wasted that so many dishes are set on a table every day. There are also the clothes of everyone in our house, this winter the master's winter clothes have been reduced by two, and the subordinates have been reduced by one. The big guys, hurry up, get together 2,000 sets of cotton clothes and send them to the soldiers, it's still okay. ”

"It's still the father's righteousness, and my daughter admires it."

He had long known that Shen Zhong was such a kind person, so Xiao Xia never doubted that the idea he proposed would be vetoed by his father.

Shen Zhong laughed, being adored by his daughter was also a kind of pride as a father.

The family's plan to make 2,000 sets of cotton clothes to be sent to the battlefield in the frontier soon spread, and most people admired the heroism and righteousness of the master, but some people who were affected by their interests were not happy.

The first to show dissatisfaction is Wang, Wang's is getting fatter and fatter year by year, last year's winter clothes will definitely not be able to wear this year, this year there were four sets of new cotton clothes, and now there are two sets less, she is naturally unhappy. Especially the food has also declined, the roast chicken and elbows she has to eat every day are all gone, she can only see a big meat once in seven days, and a table of dishes has become a simple three dishes and one soup, isn't this to starve her to death?

In the warm pavilion, it is very lively, since Mrs. Jia's illness has healed, everyone has begun to calm down in the morning and dusk.

"Mother, what do you think of the second uncle? There is no cotton clothes in the border war, that is the business of the officials, what does it have to do with us? We've only had a good life for a few days, and we're starting to toss? We're all family. ”

Wang sat aside and complained, Mrs. Jia has been holding Buddha beads all day long since she recited the Buddha, and it was like that.

But no matter what the Wang family said, Mrs. Jia just didn't speak, and kept reciting the scriptures with her eyes closed. Anyway, no one is missing in the family, and she can't do without her, so she doesn't care about this kind of idleness. After the second son became an earl, he was no longer the old lady in the Shen family's compound who said what was the waste, and Mrs. Jia was not stupid, her good life now relied on the filial piety of the second son.

She wouldn't offend Shen Zhong for this trivial matter that had nothing to do with her.

"Mother, do you have something to say?"

Just at this time, Shen Xiaoxia came in from behind the screen, and when she was outside the door, she heard Wang's complaints.

"Dad is doing this for Shen Wu's good, the eldest aunt really doesn't know good people's hearts."

As soon as Wang saw Shen Xiaoxia, she immediately wilted, and her eyes were a little evasive, but as soon as she heard that it was related to Shen Wu, she wanted to know what was going on.

"The soldiers on the battlefield don't have cotton clothes for the winter, and Shen Wu doesn't definitely have them, isn't my father making cotton clothes just for Shen Wu?"

"Shen Wu's cotton clothes have already been sent at home, and even if it is for Shen Wu, there is no need to make two thousand sets?" She can't eat meat to her heart's content every day.

Of course, the latter sentence, Wang didn't dare to say it out loud.

Xiao Xia was too lazy to explain to the Wang family, and greeted Mrs. Jia.

Seeing Shen Xiaoxia, Mrs. Jia had some enthusiasm, mainly because the light of the Bodhisattva in her room was too dazzling, and she always remembered that it was pure gold.

"Xiao Xia come up and sit down, don't waste your tongue with that stupid woman. She doesn't think about anything except eating, her head is full of fat. This winter, I have also reduced my clothes by two sets, and recently I am also planning to eat fasting and chanting Buddha, and I don't have to send meat dishes to my yard. All the money saved was made into cotton clothes and sent to the soldiers. ”

After listening to Mrs. Jia's words, everyone in the room looked at her with a ghostly expression, she didn't take the wrong medicine! When did it become so reasonable?

"What's your face?"

Xiao Xia hurriedly stepped forward to dial a kumquat for Mrs. Jia, with a smile on her face, and said sweetly: "We have admiration and admiration in our eyes, grandma is so old, and she is still thinking about national affairs, which is really admirable." ”

Xiaoqiu Jiling also cooperated with the second sister at the moment and said: "Yes, grandma, you are really good, the Buddha will bless you with a long life if you know it." ”

When Mrs. Jia heard this, she laughed, recited 'Amitabha' again, and said to everyone with a smile: "You all want to be like me, and only if you have a good heart will you be rewarded." ”

"Yes." Everyone nodded cooperatively to indicate that they were taught.

"It doesn't seem to be good to see my aunt's face, but my aunt is not feeling well?"

Shen Xiaoxia suddenly said this, and everyone's eyes were focused on Shen Hui.

Looking at it this way, Shen Hui's face was indeed a little white and terrifying.

Shen Hui touched her face and looked away.

"It's okay, I just didn't sleep well last night."

No one believes her explanation, and she can't be so white without sleeping well? After that, everyone's eyes looked at Shen Xiaoxia again.

Today's Shen Hui is except for Shen Xiaoxia, no one dares to provoke, the trick of crying, making trouble and hanging is too scary, and they can't stand this.

If Xiao Xia knew that everyone thought so, she would definitely feel so innocent! Isn't she a solid-eyed child?

Everyone said it was okay, Xiao Xia didn't want to care, she sat in the warm pavilion for a while, and went back when the meaning of filial piety was delivered, and there were a bunch of serious things waiting for her!

As soon as Shen Xiaoxia left, Shen Hui couldn't sit still, so she found an excuse and went back to the house, returned to her house, locked the door, and couldn't feel at ease.

She gently stroked her belly, her face full of anxiety and remorse. Just this morning, after eating the fish soup for breakfast, she vomited in the dark. Later, I found out that I was pregnant, and it has been a few years since I married into the Sun family, and she has never been pregnant, but I didn't expect to be pregnant this time, what can I do?

It's really a leaky house that happened to rain overnight, and her plan was bankrupt because of Shen Xiaoxia's return, and now she is pregnant with a wild seed, how can she be good?

Shen Hui's eyes were full of ruthlessness and unwillingness, she would never give up if she didn't achieve her goal, and no one could stop her!
