Chapter 508 Summer Harvest, Eat Candy
The most difficult thing in the world to bear is the kindness of a beautiful woman, so Liu Wu avoids this issue most of the time, or in other words, he avoids the issue of love between men and women.
I was single in my previous life, and I am still single in this life. I am always resistant to talking about marriage.
The continuation of bloodline that most people think of is not the only one in his opinion.
And he could not avoid the love that talented men and beautiful women yearned for.
So on this day, Liu Wu got a rare drunkenness, and then used the alcohol to beat Shi Deshou. When he woke up, he said that he drank too much yesterday and didn't know what happened.
As for Shi Deshou's resentment, let him let it go! !
After all, the eldest brother who never drank too much with them would drink too much in one glass of wine.
Who are you lying to? ? ?
.................
Time passed, and the summer harvest under the Han army also began.
The [-]rd Infantry Brigade stationed in Huanghe County one day in the early morning.
"gather!"
"Order, the [-]st and [-]rd Infantry Brigade of the [-]rd Infantry Battalion go to Weisu County to help the poor people in collecting food!"
"Orders, [-]nd and [-]th [-]st Infantry Battalion..."
This year's summer harvest is different from previous years. In previous years, the Han army was just flopping in a small pond in Hetu Mountain. With thousands of soldiers and a small population, the entire army could go to the village to help the people harvest food.
But now it's no longer possible. There are 51 counties and one Hetu Mountain under the rule of the Han army, with a total population of 240 million, but the overall military strength is only more than 3000.
The territory is too big and the troops are too few. After excluding the troops used for defense, even if all the remaining troops are mobilized, they will only be 2 or [-].
Therefore, compared with previous years, the Han army today helps the people harvest food. They can only choose to help those families who are living in poverty, or whose families are not strong enough to work, or whose families are martyrs, to harvest food.
Similarly, they will also go there if there is a disaster or too much precipitation in that area making it difficult to defend the city.
Therefore, the current restructuring of the Han army is naturally multifaceted.
In Xingyi Village, Pingyu Town, the rice ears are golden in the fields, and people are going to and from the fields; some are harvesting in the fields, and some are carrying bundles of rice to and from the road.
At this time, the only livestock in the village was led out and pulled the cart to and from the fields.
Even so, they were so tired that they couldn't straighten their backs, but the people's faces showed joy.
It’s really a harvest scene.
However, there are always some people in this world who are not living a happy life. To the east of Xingyi Village, there lives a poor family.
This family has three sons and three daughters.
The eldest son attended White Lotus and died;
The eldest daughter married a local gangster. Life was not going well and she died in childbirth.
The second son was recruited by Da Qian and died;
The second daughter was kidnapped by Da Gan and has not been heard from since. Also kidnapped with them were the third son’s wife and daughter.
The three girls were sold to the landlord as maids, and one day they were beaten to death.
The only three remaining sons first led the way to eliminate the Daqian rebels when the Han army arrived, then joined the militia, and then made meritorious service and joined the [-]th Infantry Brigade of the Han army as a soldier, and finally died in Yilan County.
This family is left with two elderly people who have lost all their children and one child who has lost his parents and relatives.
According to the standards of the Han army, this family had a total of sixteen acres of land, but two old people and a young child could barely take care of the fields. As for harvesting, they were powerless.
Therefore, the whole village was full of happy people, except these two old people who were crying sadly in the fields.
"Heaven, earth, why did the Han army come so late??"
Yes, if the Han army had arrived earlier, they would have been able to live a happy family life like other villagers! !
In response, the little grandson who came home from vacation early in the morning saw his grandparents crying, took out two pieces of candy from his pocket, looked at it reluctantly, swallowed, then stood on tiptoes and handed the candy to his grandparents' mouths. side.
"Grandpa, grandma, eat sweets!!"
As children of martyrs, they naturally receive preferential treatment. With pensions and care, the family can actually live a good life.
But no one expected that their family would be so miserable.
This candy is distributed under the sole care of the school.
When the teacher in the school saw that the child was happy and crying, he took out candy and said to the child: "When you are unhappy, eat a piece of candy and you will be happy!!"
Therefore, when grandparents cry, it seems to him that they want to eat sweets.
Because this candy is so sweet, it makes me really happy to eat it.
The two old men felt even sadder in their hearts when they looked at the candy brought to their lips by their grandson.
The old man took the candy, stuffed it into his grandson's mouth, and said with a smile:
"Grandpa doesn't like sweets, dogs eat them!"
Talking, laughing and crying.
The child was puzzled, but looking at the tears left by his grandfather, he couldn't help but reach out to wipe them away.
"Grandpa, grandma, don't cry. If you cry, I will cry too!!"
As soon as these words came out, the two old men couldn't stop their tears from flowing down. They hugged their grandchildren and choked:
"Grandpa (grandma) don't cry!!"
Just when the child was at a loss, a voice suddenly came from behind the old man.
"Excuse me, is this the land of the Xun Xuewen family??"
When the two old men heard someone asking, they stood up quickly, wiped their tears, turned around and looked at the people who came. There were actually more than ten people. These people were wearing uniform clothes. Although they were not luxurious, they made people feel very comfortable.
"Yes, descendants, this is my family's land. Are you..."
The visitors were delighted when they heard this and looked at each other. Then the first person gave him a military salute.
"Old man, we are Xun Xuewen's comrades!"
The two old men were stunned when they heard this, with tears in their eyes and a bit at a loss, and continued:
"He's a colleague from Xuewen, um, please follow me home!!"
The people who came did not agree to the old man's invitation. Instead, they looked at the old man's land and saw that everyone around him had finished harvesting. The old man's land was left alone with a lot that had not yet been harvested. So the team leader who led the team hurriedly stepped forward with a bit of shame on his face. .
"Old man, no need, we are here to help you harvest food."
After that, a group of people went into battle, picked up the farm tools next to the two old men, and then went to the fields to harvest rice, leaving the two old men behind and said:
"How could this happen? How could this happen!!"
The team leader quickly stepped forward to help the old man and let him take a rest in a cool place.
"How could it not be true? Xuewen died for the Han Army, so naturally our Han Army are your children, we deserve it, we deserve it!!"
"Today, we are late!!"
The old man cried when he heard this, and while wiping his tears, he thanked him.
At noon, the old man waved to the soldiers in the field with a bamboo tube.
"Young man, come on, drink water, drink water!!"
The soldiers had been busy for a long time and were sweating profusely. They were indeed thirsty, so they thanked him and picked up the bamboo tube to drink.
The old man felt a little ashamed and said: "The old woman is cooking. There are many people today, so it will take a while. Let's all rest first. The food will be delivered soon!!"
The soldiers were shocked: "How could this be done!!"
The old man waved his hands repeatedly, "Yes, yes, you treat me as a relative, and I treat you as a relative, so of course I do!"
In response, the old man's grandson took out the last candy he had and stood on tiptoes trying to take it out.
"Uncle, uncle, here, eat candy, eat candy!!"
