"Sister, can't we find another way? Do you have to carry a big bag here? ”

Cheng Yang followed behind Lu Weimang step by step, holding her a huge burlap bag while bowing his head, trying to avoid the eyes of the coolies wearing burlap shorts around him. Yesterday, Sister Ah took them into the city with confidence, but at the end of the day, they fell here, Lu Chengyang couldn't help but feel as if he was a little disappointed, although he also felt sorry for Sister A.

"Only here is the cash settlement, and I will earn today's food first."

Lu Weimang held the burlap bag on her shoulder with one hand, which was almost the same height as hers, and it was full of wheat grains that had not been shelled, to say the least, one or two hundred catties. I always heard the third brother and the younger brother say that they were born with divine power, Lu Weimang just wanted to try it at first, who knew that it was really not very difficult to carry a big bag, that is, the wheat grains passed through the linen, and her shoulders hurt a little.

The coolies who were carrying goods around saw that Lu Weimang, a thin little girl, was indeed carrying a big bag, but it was a little difficult to carry it to the carriage, and they all stopped unconsciously.

Just now he was laughing at the three sisters and brothers of the Lu family, and Lu Weimang said that she had to say that she had to try the housekeeping clerk opened her mouth wide in surprise, hurriedly got up from her seat, followed Lu Weimang, and looked up and down at this thin girl who was no more than the height of her waist.

"Little girl, don't be reckless, where can't you eat a bowl of rice? You are a local, as long as there is a local as a guarantor, I will guarantee you to enter Dong Weng's house. It's just a matter of being a subordinate for a few years, and when Dong Weng's term expires, you can let you go home if you don't want to do it, isn't it lighter than carrying a big bag here? ”

Lu Weimang turned his head and smiled at the clerk, "Thank you for your kindness, but the little woman is born with divine power, and she just looks hard to carry a big bag, but it's actually okay." ”

After saying that, he took a few steps forward, learned the movements of others he had just seen, and threw a sack of wheat into the wagon and put it away.

It's not that Lu Weimang doesn't want to do a lighter job, it's that she doesn't have a basic understanding of this world, and she sells herself into slavery in a daze, what to do in the future is up to others, and she has two younger brothers, but it's not enough for one person to eat.

Lu Weimang turned around and went to the warehouse to carry the big bag, but was hurriedly stopped by the clerk next to him.

"Oh, my aunt, you don't have money to eat, can't I give you a few pennies? Don't carry it. ”

At first, the clerk just wanted to tease this little girl who looked weak and delicate, but now it is difficult to ride a tiger. Dong Weng had just taken office, and if he was rumored to be notorious for mistreating civilians, he couldn't afford it, so he took out a few pennies from his cuffs and pulled the little girl, wanting to put it in the little girl's hand.

Lu Weimang turned her back on her hands and refused to accept it, and her two younger brothers also followed behind her, not accepting the money handed over by the paperwork.

"It's only natural to work and eat. The steward was willing to give our sister and brother three chances, and the little woman was already grateful. Don't worry, the little girl won't bother you, I'm capable, I can't do it, the little girl still has a younger brother to raise. ”

Looking at the thin girl in front of her patting her sleeves neatly, as if she had just done something ordinary and just a thing, she was a little dumbfounded and a little admiring.

Put the money back in the sleeve cage, stand up straight and no longer stop the little girl, "Okay, since you say so, then I will treat everyone equally, we are counting the bags, you do less, wait for the settlement of wages, don't complain that I give less." ”

"I work hard to eat, you don't deceive and give money, we are refreshing, and we don't owe each other!"

Lu Weimang promised loudly.

"Good!"

"Well said!"

"Let's work hard to earn solid money, the little girl has ambition!"

Lu Weimang's words made the surroundings stop to look at the strange coolies and the people who stopped and watched, and couldn't help but applaud her.

"It's not easy for our county to have such ambitious girls."

There are those who shake their heads and sigh.

"Who's to say it isn't? Take a sack to hold two of her, and this person will not complain or complain, will not be charity, and will have ambition! ”

There is a thumbs up.

"Little girl, don't worry, if anyone cares about your money later, we can drown him with a mouthful of foam."

"It's just..."

…

Lu Weimang didn't want to provoke everyone to watch by carrying a big bag, so he hugged his fists and wanted to salute the people around him in response, so he took his two younger brothers to the warehouse.

Cheng Yang and Changfeng, as if they were praised for themselves, did not shrink their bodies anymore, stood up straight and followed behind Sister A, quite arrogant, as if people were praising and talking about themselves.

The main owner went to carry the big bag again as usual, except for some who had nothing to do to watch the excitement, and the rest of the people returned to each other and began to work.

However, in this group of tall and sturdy coolies, Lu Weimang's thin figure is so conspicuous but strangely harmonious.

The busy grain and grass warehouse is full of people, not far away, there are a few people riding tall horses, the first one is wearing leather armor, and his hair is tied up high with a jade crown, obviously looking young but full of majesty, as if he was born with a convincing graceful temperament.

"General Huo, the grain and grass have arrived one after another in the past few days, and the logistics of the intermittent people have also been recruited, just wait for a few days for the army to start, this time we will definitely be able to wipe out those bandits who are hiding like rats."

After the war, bandits are a big cancer that affects the stability of the country, but often when a large army comes, they hide like rats, and when the army passes, they wantonly torture and kill the people.

Sometimes the two armies fighting can restrain the soldiers from harming the innocent, but bandits are the slaughter of villages and exterminations.

This time, the emperor specially sent the resourceful General Huo over, just to completely eliminate the scourge of banditry at the lowest cost.

General Huo gave a light "um", so that the auxiliary ministers and generals who followed behind him did not dare to say a word, but just followed behind General Huo.

The personal guard beside him was more casual, and he followed General Huo's gaze and found the small figure carrying a sack.

"It's a pity, born with divine power and a stoic temperament, if it's a boy, you can receive a good training by your side."

They also heard what the crowd had just heard, and it was not far away, condescending, and it was easy to find that the little figure was a thin and delicate little girl.

Originally, there was no distinction between male and female, so Lu Weimang originally wanted to dress up as a man, but he was ridiculed by his two younger brothers, and the clothes that were obviously similar were also recognized by the steward as a little girl, Lu Weimang said that he was also helpless.

How could a woman in ancient times have a way out, if she is a man, she can go to the battlefield to fight for a future, or she can study hard and embark on a career in office, but she is a girl.

Lu Weimang doesn't complain about others, if others can't do it, he may not be able to do it, take one step at a time, you have to work hard to survive in this era, and when you don't have to worry about food and clothing, let's talk about it.

"Young Master, General Cheng is still waiting for the results of your patrol and the next march plan to the county camp, is it time for us to set off."

It turned out that the group traveled lightly and simply, and they came to the field to make a plan for the next step.

Although General Huo won a hundred battles and was famous, after all, this was a bandit suppression operation in the entire Jingyang Prefecture, so the imperial court also sent a general to come over for a while. To put it simply, it is a plan of action, and it is General Huo who fights and kills the enemy, and General Cheng is like a mascot.

This is also His Majesty's love for General Huo. If you win the battle and become a knight, if you lose, someone can help share the pressure from behind.

"Let's go."

One last glance at the little girl, as if seeing drops of sweat from her pale face down her chin to her chin, and then drop by drop to the ground.

"If the general can't stand it, he can give her some money, which can be regarded as a help. In the troubled times, even a thin little girl has to fight to survive. ”

The guard beside him saw the general's gaze and said.

"Didn't you see and hear? People don't have to give alms, they have to rely on themselves. ”

The guards around him are obviously closer to the general, and they speak more casually.

"That's them, general, you will be rewarded, they can only be grateful to Dade."

General Huo hit his horse and glanced at the guards beside him, "Put away the corners of your mouth, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand." ”

The guard was frozen by General Huo at a glance, and he didn't know where he was wrong, but he didn't dare to make any more ideas, so he had to look at the scribe beside him for help.

"If this is a boy and takes it by his side, he will have a foundation for survival in the future. But it's a girl, and you give her money for a while, so what about the future? I can't help for the rest of my life. It's better not to bother too much and let her eat by herself. A man must always stand up for himself. ”

The scribe's words made the guard a little unconvinced, and he muttered in a low voice, "What's wrong with the girl?" You can also keep it by your side, or give her some money, she will always have an easier life. ”

If Lu Weimang could hear this, he probably wouldn't have recognized it anymore. However, at this time, she was concentrating on carrying a big bag, and she didn't find herself being looked at by these people.

As the sun set, Lu Weimang took the twenty-five dollars she had earned hard for a day, and was ready to take her two younger brothers to buy food.

"The girl!"

Suddenly, someone shouted behind him, and Lu Weimang turned his head.

"There are two meals a day here, you came late today, and you didn't catch up with the pie, you take these cakes, and they should be made up for you, and if you still want to come tomorrow, come early."

Looking at the charity steward in front of him and the cake he handed over, Lu Weimang's eyes were warm and swollen as if they were soaked in hot water, and he couldn't hold back the tears that wanted to get out of his eyes, took the cake, and thanked the steward.

"No thanks, you deserve it."

Bidding farewell to the steward, Lu Weimang took his two younger brothers and walked to the resting place he found yesterday.

This is behind the eaves of a large family, and if it rains, you can stand against the wall to avoid the rain. Leaning against the sun-soaked blue brick wall, the three siblings shared the bread they had received from the steward.

"Sister, it's made of wheat, it's so fragrant!"

The little brother walked around with her for a day, and he was tired, so he smelled the wheat cake in his hand and ate it viciously, with a bright smile on his face.

Lu Weimang was infected by his optimistic little brother, and also took a big bite, "Chengyang, eat quickly." ”

While eating, he beckoned the third brother to hurry up and eat too.

Cheng Yang is one year older than Changfeng, looking at the gray-faced sister at the end of the day, his heart is a little sour, "Sister, this is what you earned all day, I am reluctant to eat." ”

Lu Weimang patted the third brother's head, "Who in this world is not hard, and the people who work with me are also very hard, although I am a little younger than them, I am indeed born with divine power, maybe it is easier than them." Eat quickly, I've been hungry for a day, don't eat again, be careful for a while, Changfeng will grind with you after eating, and let you share some of it. ”

Changfeng heard Sister Ah mention him, came back to his senses from the state of hard work, smiled at the two elder sisters, and buried his head in nibbling on the wheat cake that was bigger than his face.

Cheng Yang saw it, looked at Sister A and smiled, and also took a big gulp.

Lu Weimang took out the water bladder, let Changfeng take a sip first, then handed it to the third brother, and finally took a sip himself, holding the wheat cake in his hand and began to eat it.

After the three of them buried their heads in eating for a while and relieved the feeling of hunger in their stomachs, they took a breath and chatted while eating.

The orange sun is no longer hot at noon, and it only makes people feel warm when they shine on their bodies.

"Sister, are you going back tomorrow?"

"Go, I've done it for a day today, and I think I can still withstand it."

"It's so hard."

"It's okay, it's only a few days to load and unload grain and grass here, and after a few days to save some money, I won't go. When the time comes, we will have the money, and we will be able to find another way out. Sister will never let you suffer with me all the time. ”

"Well, we listen to Sister."
