After everyone laughed, they sat together and chatted, and the most talked about conscription was the war.

"Alas~ I heard that there is going to be a conscription again, is it true?" One of them, dressed in short brown, with a turban around his head and a sweat veil around his neck, said a swarthy man.

"It's like that."

"What do you call this, you won't have enough to eat, and you have to fight."

"As soon as this battle starts, it is still us ordinary people who are unlucky!"

"Who's to say it isn't."

……

"There is going to be one person in every family, what do you call this!" Old Uncle Bai said. When he left, Aunt Liu and his youngest son were left at home, how could the life of orphans and widows pass.

"This time, I will leave his mother and mother, and I don't know what will happen to the orphans and widows in the future!"

"This, the ...... in charge" Aunt Liu looked at Uncle Bai, and couldn't help but feel a deep sadness in her heart. There are a lot of words, but I don't know where to start.

"Alas~, who says it's not! Those of us who moved here are exclusive single-family families, and who can take care of them when they leave. At this time, a man from the same village said.

"Alas~"

"Brother Jiang, when did you say this official would come?" A man asked.

"I don't know, it should be the last one, right?" Jiang Meng wasn't sure.

"Alas~"

"Don't talk about it, let's do more before you leave and grow some vegetables, so that you can leave more for your family."

"That's right, let's do more."

Jiang Jiujiu watched them chatting and didn't express his opinion, just thinking about how to live in the future......

After resting and talking, everyone went back to the fields and began to work, but the dark clouds that hung over their hearts did not disperse.

Time passed, and at dusk, wisps of cooking smoke rose in the village......

"If you don't practice martial arts, you will always be empty in the end! What I want to tell you today is that you must lay a good foundation before practicing martial arts. After eating, Jiang Meng said to Jiang Jiujiu and a few people.

"Dad, I know." Jiang should arrive in September.

"You have to remember that you must practice martial arts steadily and steadily, and you can't blindly seek progress! Be sure to make a footprint and a pit! ”

"Yes!"

"Got it!"

"Hmm!"

"Yue girl, you are the eldest sister, if your father leaves that day, you must take good care of your younger brothers and sisters!" Jiang Meng patted September's shoulder and admonished.

"Well, I will, Daddy! I will definitely take a good look at my younger siblings, don't worry! Jiang September guaranteed to arrive.

"Well, your tai chi is very good! I'll teach my younger siblings in the future! ”

"Hmmm! I will! ”

"It's getting dark, go to sleep!" Jiang Meng looked at it and let them go to sleep when it was dark.

……

After another two days, the work in the field was finished, and Jiang Meng went up to the mountains to hunt again.

After Jiang Meng went up the mountain, Jiang Jiujiu took Jiang Haochen and a few of them to the mountain......

Find the entrance, go through the cave, and come to the valley, where some of the fruit trees are already bearing fruit, and some of the flowers are blooming.

In the whole valley, melons and fruits are fragrant, bees and butterflies are flying, and all kinds of flowers compete with each other. In the midst of the woods, a few sika deer were jumping and running off into the distance, a flock of wild ducks was frolicking in the lake in the valley, and hares and pheasants were running through the grass.

"Wow~" several children exclaimed.

"Sister, this is where you found out before?" Jiang Haochen looked at Jiang Jiujiu and asked, his eyes full of affection.

"Well, it's a ......paradise," September lamented.

"Wow! Big sister, look, there are sika deer! Jiang Haoyu called excitedly.

"Uh-huh, and pheasants and rabbits!" Jiang Jiujiu nodded in response.

"Wow~ Sister, it's so beautiful here. Eldest sister, eldest sister, let's come often in the future, okay! Jiang Xue shouted happily, with a big smile on her face, and then said with some loss: "It would be better if there was a house here!" ”

"Eldest sister, these fruits haven't been seen for a few days, and a lot of them are ripe!" Jiang Haoyu looked at the trees full of fruit and sighed.

"Yes, it's summer now, it's the time for good fruits, and the harvest has arrived." Jiang Jiujiu said.

Maybe it's because of the different times, but some of the fruits that ripen in the middle of summer are now hanging on the branches. In the orchard, some of the ripe fruits fell to the ground and rotted because no one picked them.

In the grass on the side, a few rabbits were preparing to escape.

Let's go and pick some more fruit and go back. Just enough to make more preserves, jams.

"Good!"

"Go and pick the fruit, and I'm going to find some herbs. Be careful. After Jiang Jiujiu finished speaking, he walked into the forest, beating the grass with a stick as he walked.

In summer, the hibernating snake has awakened, and like this, it can startle the snake.

……

Jiang Jiujiu walked all the way, found a lot of medicinal materials, and returned to the fruit forest with a basket on his back. Jiang Haochen and Jiang Haoyu were loading the fruits, and Jiang Xue was helping to cover the leaves of the big trees on the ground on the fruits.

September walked over and put down the back basket to help cover the fruit, and after loading the fruit, Jiang Jiujiu asked Jiang Xue to carry the medicinal herbs on her back, and she, Jiang Haochen and Jiang Haoyu carried the back basket with the fruit on their backs and walked back.

"Eldest sister, we picked a lot of fruit again this time." Jiang Haochen said.

"Hmm!" September nodded, smiling.

"We can cook so much more delicious! You can make preserves, jams, and I like strawberry jam the most, sweet and sour. Jiang Xue fantasized about all kinds of delicious food in her mind, and her eyes were bent into crescents with a smile.

"Eldest sister, I like macaroons, will you make me macaroons in the future?" Jiang Haoyu ran to Jiang Jiujiu's side, looking at Jiang Jiujiu with straight eyes. It was like a star twinkling in my eyes.

"Okay, as long as the eldest sister knows, you can eat whatever you want." Jiang should arrive in September.

A few people returned home laughing and laughing.

Jiang Jiujiu made a lot of delicious food and stored it there, because he didn't know when, Dad would go to the army, and it would be good to make more and put it there.

Jiang Meng came back in the evening.

……

In this way, a few days passed plainly, and in these few days, Jiang Jiujiu went to the county town again, sent the previously made candied fruit and jam to Yingkezhai, and talked with Shopkeeper Liu about future cooperation.

"Shopkeeper Liu, since I will provide you with recipes and these desserts in the future, should you give me some shares!"

"This is as it should be, and the young owner will explain it when he leaves."

"Oh! yes. ”

"Well, split it for you."

"Twenty percent! There's a good achievement. This...... I'm afraid these two percent are not so easy to take! ”

"Of course, there are conditions, since you are given 20%, you can only send good things here after you are brought into the shares......"

……

After talking about cooperation, he talked about conscription, "Shopkeeper Liu, this is going to be a war, it won't be affected, right?" ”

"Don't worry, it'll be fine, it won't have much impact. If it's you, it won't be affected, right? ”

"This shopkeeper Liu can rest assured, since we are now one, we don't have to worry about it, after all, we will be prosperous and lossy."
