Chapter 72 (2)
In the past, I always thought that recruiting new recruits was very simple, as long as an individual came to register a name, provided that the person had to be voluntary and could not be forced.
Through this personal experience, I realized that it is not an easy task, in fact, there are many, many small details in it. Not only are people coming, but they also have to investigate the bottom of the chassis for a long time, and the specific parts of the body can be reached, and I can only find an excuse to say that I want to drink water to breathe and wipe my sweat or something, but some soldiers complained that I was grinding and chirping like a girl, and they even laughed at me and said that you are a man, what are you shy. Every time I can't spit out half a word, even if I have a full stomach, I can only be dumb.
Bai Xiaoqiu, he knew my identity and didn't help me play a round, and he followed along with him to coax me.
During the day, I can only sit in front of the Jane platform and can't go anywhere, because there are a lot of people who come to sign up, and there are many onlookers who watch the excitement, no matter what time of the day I am surrounded by a bunch of people, especially those who watch the excitement, even forget to eat, one stop is the whole day, and occasionally interject on the side, I know this recruit, he is my neighbor next door, and the two of them actually started a family routine in front of me. Or maybe this is my aunt's son, my cousin, oops, cousin, you're here too, yes, cousin happened you were here too, yes, what are you doing when you're not at home as a young master and running to this ghost place, being a soldier, it's fun to be a soldier, haha. The fist in my sleeve was clenched tightly, and it looked like the discipline needed to be strengthened.
What's even more annoying is that Bai Xiaoqiu actually fell asleep under such circumstances, leaning comfortably on the high-backed chair, snoring, and the corners of his mouth flowed with a hara, poor me have to register my name again, interrogate carefully, and listen to the words and expressions of all directions, for fear that it would be a sin to accidentally attract a bad intention.
Thinking about my tired sweaty head and waist almost can't straighten up, but he is high up on the top and has nothing to do with his own sleep, as if in a dream, and occasionally smiles slightly, which beauty is Ba Cheng holding in his dream.
I once asked the veteran soldiers around me why they wanted to divide the newly recruited soldiers into three categories, and the soldiers said that this was all the idea of the twelve youths, so I asked the twelve young men.
I'm a person who likes to get to the bottom of things I don't understand, and I don't ask a clear understanding for fear that I will be suffocated to death, even if I don't want to see Bai Xiaoqiu, I still have to ask, and when I have a little time, I mustered up all my strength and said to him, "Twelve Shao, I don't understand after all, it's just a matter of recruiting soldiers, why do you have to classify them, don't you cause internal contradictions, you know that once the gap between people widens, it is easy to cause differentiation and provoke a great imbalance in the heart, and you are still a famous young general, and you don't even understand this truth, lived in vain".
That Bai Xiaoqiu just lowered his head to watch the ants on the ground move, and said, "Women still don't stretch their hands so long, don't ask what you shouldn't ask, and don't know what you shouldn't know."
But isn't it, my hands on the table every day to write names, write notices, help him copy the rules, as soon as I talk about the rules I began to feel uncomfortable, each recruit has a hand, a discipline has a full ten pages, copied to the end of my mind is full of rules, when drinking water, there is in the water, there is in the rice bowl, there is on the walking ground, the whole person is about to copy into a demon.
People are generally like this, when you ask, he refuses to say it, as if it is some big secret, and when you are not interested, he runs to tell you that Bai Xiaoqiu is such a person.
Later, I learned from him that Bai Xiaoqiu's real purpose was not to divide into categories, but to rob the rich and help the poor. Those rich sons and brothers just want to have a good time, not really want to be a soldier to go to the battlefield to work hard for the country, since they were young, they naturally can't stand the wind and rain every day, but since they came, why not accept it first, but there is a premise, you must hand over some silver taels as funds for the period, and then take these silver taels to distribute to the poor soldiers who have old and young families.
After listening to this, I admired Bai Xiaoqiu very much, and gave him a thumbs up very unprincipledly, he smiled, brushed his sleeves and walked away.
The day is fine, the saddest is the night, every time for the bed with him to fight to the death, for a small bed, we have fought, guessed boxing, thrown stones, fought crickets, and even ran to the street to buy two wild pheasants back, so that the chickens and dogs jumped at night. But luckily, I also won sometimes, most of the time I lost, as long as he won, he went to bed and slept until dawn.
One night, I was guessing fists with Bai Xiaoqiu, and I fell asleep unconsciously. Sleeping until midnight and finding myself lying in bed, could it be that Bai Xiaoqiu's conscience found that he understood my hard work during the day. When I opened my eyes, I saw Bai Xiaoqiu staring at me with a pair of black eyes, I shrank back in fright and said, "Why am I sleeping on the bed?"
Bai Xiaoqiu squeezed his eyelids at me and said, "What do you say?"
I stood up and turned my head, not sleepwalking, and couldn't help but say, "I'd better go sit on a chair and sleep." After finishing speaking, I was about to jump out of bed, but Bai Xiaoqiu grabbed me. He said cheaply, "Farewell, it's not the first time I've squeezed a bed with me."
I looked at the floor with a pair of puffed eyes and said, "What do you say, don't you?"
"That's right, it's me, who carries you to bed every night and back to your chair when it's almost dawn. Every day, I pinch a little to hug over, and pinch a little to hug back, but I am tormented and broken, and I am afraid that I will oversleep and be found by you. What's even worse is that you really don't dare to compliment your sleeping appearance, spinning around the bed, and often lying across the middle of the bed, thinking you are a crab."
My face turned red, even if I was so angry that I trembled, I couldn't do anything with him in the middle of the night, I endured it and was ready to get up, he hugged me from behind, "Don't mind, I've been sleeping with you in my arms these days, I'm used to it, hurry, lie down, I won't eat you again."
It's all like this, so I said to him, "I'm not used to sleeping in it."
He agreed quite quickly, "Why didn't you say it earlier, you don't like it, I like it." After finishing the road, he rolled inside.
I had no choice but to lie down. At that time, I even had an urge to get into his arms, cry well, tell him all my grievances, sufferings and thoughts about him over the years, and I wanted him to know that I still loved him, and I also hated him, and wanted to tell him that I was not dead, but still his mortal.
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard him ask me behind me, "Feifei, are you asleep?"
This Feifei seemed to suddenly pull me back from the illusion, and they all said that these twelve young people were frivolous, which seemed to be true, and said angrily, "Twelve young people, can you sleep in it a little."
He didn't do what I wanted, but moved a little outward, and I moved out, and he followed suit, and I rolled straight from the bed to the ground without paying attention. It's okay to just stay on the spot and not be able to sleep. He jumped out of bed with a thud and grabbed me to the bed, saying "It's cold on the ground."
I don't know how long it took for me to fall asleep.
If you want to say that the rain doesn't rain when you look at it, and it doesn't stop when you don't want it, the so-called wind and rain are all who are charming the rumors. It was raining outside, and I couldn't work on the street, so I had to stay in the house, standing in front of the window and staring out, hoping to see a hole in the ground.
When it was almost noon, a few soldiers came over and asked me if Bai Xiaoqiu and I wanted to go to dinner together. I rolled my eyes and said, "Let's go, I'll take you to eat something delicious today."
I took a group of them to a restaurant that sold rabbit meat a few days ago, and without waiting for the others to speak, they slapped the table hard, and said loudly, "Bring all the specialty dishes in your store to the masters, move quickly, the masters are hungry." As soon as I finished speaking, all the soldiers at the table looked at me, and Bai Xiaoqiu swallowed a mouthful of water in his mouth and squirted out of his nose.
One of the soldiers said, "Yo, little brother Hei Crying Spring, I can't see it, you are soft and weak these days, especially in front of the twelve young people, like a gas bag." I didn't expect you to be quite a gentleman, so keep it up."
Either Bai Xiaoqiuguang was born with a good-looking skin, and at the critical moment, he knew that he didn't forget to pour some cold water on the head, and only heard him coldly say "unorthodox". As soon as he said this, he was so frightened that none of the soldiers dared to say anything more.
When the dish was finally served, I glanced over to the table, and there were only five plates in total. The servant who served the food had a silk cloth on his shoulder, "Dao, the dishes are all ready, please use it slowly."
No, it's the same thing, but it's a different dish, and there are obviously a lot of dishes, so why are there so few. I couldn't help but ask the little guy at the top of his throat, "Don't you have a lot of specialty dishes, I ate them here a few days ago, and there are mountains of specialty dishes, why are there only so many things today?"
Bai Xiaoqiu, who was sitting on the side, also heard something when he touched it, dragged me down and sat down, and then picked up the chopsticks to eat without saying a word, and several soldiers also began to eat with chopsticks.
I thought about cleaning up the black-hearted old man today, but I didn't expect to be half angry again.
Sure enough, on the way back from dinner, Bai Xiaoqiu told me, a good woman, if you don't learn anything badly, you have to be like a gentleman, there is no meat on her body, a group of women are making trouble in other people's restaurants, and my sister-in-law is not sure, follow you to Hu Lai, and if you are slaughtered, you will admit it, in case there is something troublesome.
I suddenly understood, pointed to the tip of his pen and said, "You saw it all that day."
He snorted.
I said, "You also sent someone to arrest me."
He hummed again.
I really want to punch him in the face, Bai Xiaoqiu, how can he be so insidious.
I walked forward without hesitation, walking very fast, he caught up, took out a bag of things from his arms and gave it to me, and said, "Open it and see."
When I looked, it was full of silver.
Bai Xiaoqiu went to discuss the purchase of horses with a few soldiers, and I was idle alone, so I sat in a corner of the inn with a rake and swatted flies. Aiming at a fly and about to shoot it, I heard someone shouting, "Twelve less, so you are here."
I raised my head to look at the man, it was a soldier, and when I saw that it was the smile on my face, I immediately withdrew it, and said to me, "I'm sorry, I recognized the wrong person, I thought it was twelve young people."
I teased him and said, "The soldier is really good-looking, how do you think I'm twelve young people when I enter the door, you look at me, which point is similar to twelve young people."
The soldier blushed and said, "No, it's nothing, I look at this dress very familiarly."
I couldn't stand my questioning to know that the Bai Xiaoqiu frivolity that the maids of the White Mansion said was not groundless. And the shirt I was wearing was Bai Xiaoqiu's own, and it was sewn for him by a courtesan named Hong'er in the Lichun Pavilion.
After hearing this, I was very angry, and I didn't know why, so I didn't even eat dinner and fell asleep on the bed. Bai Xiaoqiu didn't come back until very late, and when he came back, he also brought me a box of my favorite candy particles, he said that he ran a long way to buy it, let me eat it quickly, and asked me if I had dinner, what I ate for dinner, I didn't answer, I turned my back to him and didn't say a word.
He said, "Whoever has you off, come, laugh at the candy particles and show me."
This shirt was given to me by Mrs. Mu, for the sake of convenience, let me dress as a man to show people, I never thought that this shirt was Bai Xiaoqiu's, or a singer sewed it for him by herself, how could I bear it. Hula put his shirt from the bed into his arms, and said, "Give your clothes back to you."
He came over and sat on the edge of my bed, took my hand and put it on his palm, and said, "What's the matter, this shirt has provoked you, tell me how to provoke you."
I cried uncontrollably, crying and saying, "This shirt is yours, it was sewn for you by a girl named Xiaohong, you have to take good care of it, don't live up to someone's heart."
Even with my back to him, I could feel that he was laughing at the moment, of course he could laugh, there were beautiful women who sewed clothes for him, and he was afraid that he would wake up laughing when he fell asleep.
After a while, Bai Xiaoqiu lay down beside me, took me into his arms, and said softly, "It's delicious."
He told me that it was a long time ago when his third brother had not yet gone to guard the frontier, and once he took him out to play, and at that time he was just entering the year of dancing spoons, and when he walked to the Lichun Pavilion, he didn't want to follow his third brother behind his ass and plunge into it, and later learned that it was a place for people to have fun. The woman named Xiaohong sewed a set of clothes for him with her own hands, purely as a thank you for his kindness. Just because Xiaohong refused to make fun of people, he was beaten by the guests of Lichun Pavilion, and he happened to see it, and threw down a bag of silver to tell the man to stop beating. When he was a child, except for his fifth brother Bai Yanleng, the one who had a good relationship with him was his third brother Bai Shenye. He never wore the outfit that singer Xiaohong made for him. I swore in front of the sky that if I had half a lie, I would be killed by lightning.
I relented and immediately believed it.
General Bai Zhanqi sent soldiers to urge, and the recruitment of new soldiers was grasped. It was a rainy day, and this thing was very difficult to do, so Bai Xiaoqiu took me and a few soldiers to find a tavern and rent it for a few days. The shopkeeper took the burden handed over by Bai Xiaoqiu, shook it in his hand, heavy and accompanied by a loud sound, very happy, and said again and again, "Thank you for not bothering you to be busy, just tell me if you have anything."
Bai Xiaoqiu said, "Just prepare some tea for us, we won't need anything else for the time being."
The shopkeeper hurriedly brought us some tea, and then retreated to the back room with the servant.
In order to let more people know the news of recruitment, and in order to recruit enough recruits as quickly as possible, Bai Xiaoqiu specially added some tempting words to the original notice, such as giving material rewards, if it is the only son in the family, he promises to take care of the old and young in the family, and if he is capable, he will have the opportunity to be promoted to the leader, and those who have made major meritorious contributions on the battlefield can also be promoted to the title, such as doctor, marquis, etc., and give him a field house.
He said that I was writing at the same time, and after I finished writing, I had to copy again, and I copied nearly 100 copies. Ordered someone to take it out and post it, in addition to the entire street of Luoyang City, the mouth of the important alley, and also posted a lot on the wall of Luoyang City.
Bai Xiaoqiu's idea really worked, and not long after the notice was posted, people rushed to rush over, as if they would lose a piece of fat meat a little later. After a while, the inn was surrounded by water.
Due to the large number of people and the large number, it had to be divided into three columns by age.
Bai Xiaoqiu came to ask, I will write, and after a cold glance, I saw that one of the people who came to see the doctor was actually all old men, and some of them were unstable and needed crutches for support. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, Bai Xiaoqiu's notice really wanted to kill people.
Writing and writing feels that something is wrong, this voice sounds very much like a woman, although she has made some voice changes, how can she escape my ears of spiritual power.
Raising his head and looking at the person standing in front of Jian Tai, it is indeed not easy to distinguish just by looking at the face. To say that these children now are much better than our lives at that time, even a man has white skin and tender flesh, moist and smooth. Dressed up a little and saying that it was a woman, no one would refute it. glanced at his chest with his eyes, and immediately affirmed that the person at the moment was indeed a daughter. I was a little embarrassed for a while, should I expose her in public, if I don't debunk it, I will be found in the future, but I will lose my head, the crime of deception, how serious it is. If it is exposed in public, how embarrassing it will be for a daughter's family, since she came to apply for the recruitment at the risk of killing her head, maybe it was the family that encountered some difficulties, thinking in her heart, she winked at the woman and asked her to stand in the line quickly.
In order to avoid this suspicion, I swept around, only to hear Bai Xiaoqiu say, "Black crying spring, what is the hair, hurry up and record, come to the next one".
Rourou was recruited by me like this, if it wasn't for Bai Yan Leng to tell me, how would I know how much Bai Xiaoqiu did for me for this matter.
