Chapter 5: The General is on Top and I Are Down (5)
While Twilight was thinking about how to explain the bird, she saw the excited little boy running over to pick it up and happily saying to the woman, "Mother! There are birds eating! ”
The woman couldn't help laughing, "You kid......"
Cloudy was secretly relieved to find that no one had investigated how the bird had been defeated, and she had wondered if she would be suspected if she had used her sword qi as an excuse if they had asked later.
Taking the bird from the little boy's hand, the woman said to Yun Dui, "The husband will go into the city early in the morning to buy things, and when he comes back at noon, the girl will have to discuss with him about the recruitment." ”
Twilight nodded in response, "Okay." ”
Although the woman said that she would discuss it with her husband, when Twilight found out that she had tied up the bird, she went to prepare dry food and winter clothes for herself.
At noon, the woman's husband returned punctually with a large bag of parcels, and without opening his mouth, the woman explained to him and persuaded him.
Lunch consisted of eight steamed buns with a plate of greens and soup stewed with that bird. In addition to this, each person was given a hard-boiled egg.
Although it seems simple, Yun Dui knows in his heart that it is a luxury for ancient farmers to eat steamed buns and eggs, not to mention that they are in trouble, and this lunch has already shown their gratitude to themselves.
Compared to the fact that she often didn't have enough to eat in the last days, Clouddusk was already very satisfied with this kind of lunch.
It's nice to have peace.
The four of them finished their meal quietly before the man asked, "I don't know the girl's name?" ”
"Twilight."
The man and the woman looked at each other and said, "We have not been here for a long time, and we have not yet settled in the yamen." In order to avoid trouble after the girl is recruited, we also have the need to remain incognito, and now we are willing to settle down with the girl's surname, what does the girl think? ”
Yun Dui was overjoyed and replied with a smile, "Most of the others think that I am dead, not to mention that the name I used before was not my real name, so I am naturally willing." As for the dress I wore before and the two jade bracelets, please help me deal with them. ”
The woman answered, "Don't worry, girl, I will exchange it for some scraps of silver for her to take away, but our money is less, and it is not as valuable as the girl's clothes." ”
Twilight waved her hand indifferently, "It's okay, that's enough." ”
After the negotiation, the woman gave her the package she had prepared for Twilight, and helped her tie her breasts, successfully disguising herself as a man.
Yun Du originally had a cold and murderous temperament, and there was no sense of disobedience after changing into men's clothes.
After making preparations, the four of them went to the yamen to settle down, and by the way, they sent Yundui to enlist in the army.
The enlisted people were all assembled at the city gate, most of them carried a package like Yun Dusk, only to see the crowd of people, not neat, but also according to the arrangement of the government to follow a certain order to wait.
Weapons and armor will be issued by the army after enlistment, so you only need to prepare dry food and winter clothes on the road, and other than that, you need to prepare more silver taels.
Conscripts were to assemble within an hour and then set off for the border, for the war was urgent and could not be delayed for a moment.
As soon as Yundui entered the team, she received attention from all directions, after all, her appearance was too handsome for the rough men in the village, but after she smiled and said goodbye to the woman's family of three, she put away her smile and had a cold aura that seemed to have crawled out of hell, which made people feel cold.
In order to stay away from her, the man standing next to her involuntarily took two steps back.
Unimpressed, she stood idly in the middle of the line, waiting for her to go.
