"Miss, it's not even three poles in the morning, and the guests naturally haven't come yet." The teahouse shopkeeper's reply.

Ning Shangmo nodded, and stood still without speaking.

The shopkeeper of the teahouse asked again, "Are you uncomfortable?" Why don't you go to the back hall to rest first, I will send Xiao Er to invite Lang Zhong to come. ”

The shopkeeper next to him gently touched the shopkeeper's arm and whispered: "The eldest lady is the best Langzhong, can you still invite others?" Today, Xiangye led the troops to the battle, but I am afraid that the young lady is ......"

The shopkeeper immediately realized that Miss was suffering from lovesickness after separating from Xiangye.

He thought for a moment and asked out loud: "Miss, why don't you let the shopkeeper accompany you around?" Anyway, it's not yet time for the teahouse to have guests, and he's bored when he's idle. ”

Ning Shangmo shook his head and said, "No need, I'll just walk by myself." ”

As she spoke, she walked forward with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

The shopkeeper of the teahouse was a little worried, so he sent the shopkeeper to follow behind.

However, when Ning Shangmo found out, he was very unhappy and blamed him and let him go back.

After walking a few more streets, she sat down on the stone steps of a secluded alley.

rubbed his temples vigorously, and then took another brain-clearing pill.

Only then did I feel much more sober, and I didn't feel so groggy anymore.

"I can't go on like this, I have to pull myself together. What did he say lightly, worthy of my concern for him like this? Besides, when he sent troops to fight, he also defended his family and country. This time, hundreds of thousands of soldiers were separated from their families, if they were all like her, wouldn't the entire Daling Kingdom be in chaos? Ning Shangmo muttered to himself comforting himself.

"Yes, I want to cheer up and set a good example to all wives and mothers who send their husbands and sons to war. Give a strong backing to the soldiers in front, so that they can fight and win the battle with peace of mind. ”

"That's it."

Ning Shangmo stood up from the stone steps abruptly, she was going to the Nine Gates Admiral's Mansion to see if there was anything she needed to do.

When I was about to walk out of the alley, I suddenly saw a group of people in front of me.

She couldn't help but walk over curiously to see what was going on.

I saw a woman sitting on the side of the road with a child in her arms and crying.

She hurriedly asked the people around her what happened to the woman and why she was crying.

She was told that the woman's husband had gone to the front to fight today. Their children are not in good health, often get sick and need to take medicine. Men go to the battlefield to fight, and it is very hard for women to take care of their children at home alone, and they are even more afraid that men will die on the battlefield, who do she and her children count on? I didn't want my husband to join the army to fight.

However, his husband has ambitions to protect his family and defend the country, and to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions. In the ring, he finished sixth.

In the past few days, the woman cried with her husband and asked him to give up enlisting in the army, and he finally left resolutely.

After her husband left, the child became seriously ill again, and her husband's military salary was used up at once. The woman was desperate, not knowing how to live the future days, how she could afford to raise a seriously ill child by herself. So he wanted to commit suicide by jumping into the river with the child in his arms, but was rescued. But he refused to go home, and sat here crying.

Ning Shangmo was very sad after listening to the woman's matter.

She said to Ming lightly that it was okay, there were no children and no old people. But how many soldiers who went to the battlefield to kill the enemy, there were babies at home who were treated badly, and gray-haired old people who needed to be fed, and when they left, it was undoubtedly the pillar of the family that fell, bringing a devastating blow to the family.

But there are still so many people who have signed up to join the army, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers have been conscripted in a few days, and these hundreds of thousands of soldiers have come out of hundreds of thousands of Daling families, and there are stories behind them.

Ning Shangmo's eyes couldn't help but moisten, she was moved by the enthusiasm of the soldiers to serve the country, and she was even more concerned about the family behind them.

She walked up to the woman, took her hand, and whispered with tears in her eyes: "Sister-in-law, my man has also gone to the battlefield." Your husband is good, and it is the pride of Da Ling to be able to go to war. Without them, the iron cavalry of Beimeng Xiliang would trample on our homeland, and that kind of suffering would be even deeper. Rest assured, each of us has an obligation to help you through this difficult time. ”

When the people around heard this, they couldn't help but nod, thinking that what she said made sense.

"Yes, Mrs. Liu, we will help you raise money for treatment of your child's illness, don't be sad, take the child home." Someone spoke out to persuade him.

"I'll give you a tael of silver." Someone immediately responded with real actions.

Ning Shangmo was also enthusiastic when he heard this, Da Ling people are all kind, and they will share the same hatred at critical moments.

"Let me see the kids." She nodded sincerely at the woman.

The woman hesitated to place the child in her arms.

Ning Shangmo sat on the side of the road with the child in his arms, then took his pulse, and then looked at his tongue coating and rolled his eyelids. Finally, he said aloud: "This child's illness is not difficult to treat, and I promise to cure him in less than ten days." ”

When the woman heard this, she immediately knelt down for her, kowtowed, and said, "If the girl can cure my child's illness and leave a root for his father, I will give you this life." ”

Ning Shangmo hurriedly motioned to others to help her up, and said sincerely: "Sister-in-law, I don't want your life, as long as you live well with the child and wait for his father to return from the victory." ”

Then she said to everyone: "I hope that every one of us who has gone to the front line to fight in our family can cheer up, and I believe that they will definitely return triumphantly." ”

"Okay, I'm sure I'll be able to come back triumphantly." Her words gave everyone infinite confidence, and swept away the gloom and unhappiness of sending their loved ones to the battlefield.

"This girl, are you ......" An old woman looked at Ning Shangmo who was good-looking, knew how to heal, and was kind, and couldn't help but ask: "You can't be the Guanyin Bodhisattva who appeared and came to save us, right?" All three of my sons were sent to war. I am the only one left who is a lonely old woman, but I am happy, as long as they can win the battle and save me from the destruction of the country and the slaughter of the city, even if I lose my life, it will be a merit. ”

After listening to the old grandmother's words, Ning Shangmo was already speechless, it was too touching.

She shook her head with tears in her eyes and said with a smile: "I am not Guanyin Bodhisattva, I am like everyone else, and I also sent my own man to the battlefield. ”

Then, she took out several silver needles from her close-fitting coat pocket and pricked them in the little boy's head.

But after a stick of incense, the little boy became energetic.

The first thing he said was: "Mother, I'm hungry." ”

When the woman heard her son say this, she immediately burst into tears, nodded happily and said, "Son, you finally want to eat, say what you want to eat, and my mother will buy it for you." ”

The little boy tilted his head and thought about it, and said in a loud voice: "Mother, do I want to eat roast chicken?" ”

"Okay, mother, I'll go to the roast chicken shop next to me to buy roast chicken for you to eat." She stood up tremblingly as she spoke. But she didn't want to touch her pockets and show a look of embarrassment on her face, she suddenly remembered that the child was suddenly seriously ill this morning, and in order to save his life, all the money was spent.

"Kid, can you eat anything else? Mother, mother ...... for a while"

The little boy understood that his mother had no money, and his face couldn't help but show disappointment, but he still nodded obediently, "Mother, I'm not hungry, don't eat." ”

These words made everyone feel sad for a while.

It just so happened that the shopkeeper of the roast chicken restaurant was also standing in the crowd watching the excitement, and his son also went to the battlefield. Then he said with tears in his eyes: "I'll go home and get the roast chicken, no money." ”

After speaking, he ran back to the store, and quickly took back two roast chickens and handed them to Liu.

"I'll pay it back when I have the money, and one is enough." She said gratefully.

"I gave it to my child, his father and my son are in the same camp, and we should help each other. The child eats one, and you take the rest back, it is not hot now, and it will not be in the way to eat tomorrow, and it will be hot when you eat. The shopkeeper laughed.

"Thank you, uncle." The little boy took the roast chicken and quickly ate both chicken thighs.

Seeing his lively and cute appearance, Ning Shangmo was also very happy.

After the crowd dispersed, Ning Shangmo took Liu's mother and son back to Ning Mansion.

At this time, the Ning Mansion had already turned the world upside down, and Ning Yunni was looking for Ning Shangmo everywhere.

Seeing that she came back angry, she scolded her head: "You little hoof, do you still have my sister in your eyes?" I deliberately went out of the palace to accompany you with a big belly, you are good, and you secretly ran out without me. You hate me, don't you? ”

Ning Shangmo knew that Ning Yunni was worried about her, so he was so angry.

He smiled and took her arm, and said with a smile: "Sister, listen to me, I went out for a walk, and all the knots in my heart were untied." ”

Ning Yunni looked at her and asked as if she didn't believe it, "So amazing?" ”

Ning Shangmo nodded, then beckoned to Liu's mother and son and introduced them to each other.

After listening to Ning Shangmo talk about what he encountered outside, Ning Yunni couldn't help but be moved to tears.

Holding the little boy of the Liu family tightly in his arms, he choked up and said, "Poor one, what a good boy, what's your name?" ”

"My name is Xiao Shi, Liu Shishi." The little boy replied with his head held high.

He saw that Ning Yunni was dressed gorgeously, like the person in the New Year's painting, and couldn't help but smile and ask, "Are you a fairy sister?" ”

When Ning Yunni heard this, she couldn't help but burst into tears and laughed, "You little stone, you can really speak." ”

Thinking that the Liu family had no livelihood after her husband left, Ning Shangmo left her in Ningfu to work, and allocated them a small yard to live in with small stones.

Liu is naturally very grateful, no problem.

The matter of the Liu family deeply shocked Ning Shangmo's heart, and she discussed with Hua Lanyao and Ning Yunni Xiliang, the eldest princess, to see if she could do something for the families of the soldiers who went out to fight.

In the end, it was unanimously decided to set up a relief station.

As long as there are people in the family who are fighting on the front line and living in difficulty, they can come to register, and once verified, they will carry out targeted actions to help alleviate poverty. In this way, there will be no more things like Liu's, and even if you encounter difficulties, you will know where to ask for help.

Yan Nanhao also agreed with the method they discussed.
