Koi adopted daughter jumps over the farm gate

"What about this?"

Xie Chuntao spoke with tears in her eyes. She was pregnant and couldn't bear to hear such news.

"I heard that every year in the Gobi Desert, people freeze to death and die of thirst. People are said to be turned into mummies alive, and it will take hundreds of years to be discovered after being buried underground." Eugene Gui exclaimed.

"Shut up, don't talk nonsense if you don't know how to speak." Old Mrs. Bai scolded Eugene Gui sternly.

"Get out." Bai Erzhuang lowered his face.

Eugene Gui's untimely words made the Bai family even more panicked.

"Daughter, please tell me that your fifth brother is safe." There was panic on the white wooden face that always favored girls over boys.

Xiao Fuyuan said mechanically: "Fifth brother is safe and sound."

At this time, she naturally hoped that the fifth brother would be safe.

But she always felt that Fifth Brother would be safe this time just by relying on just one word.

Zhen's face showed sadness.

She has never been as optimistic as Bai Banban. Bai Banban feels that with the protection of her daughter's luck, nothing will happen if her fifth child goes into battle to kill the enemy.

Zhen's grandfather made his fortune on horseback on the border. When she was a child, she listened to her grandfather's stories about warriors going to war and wrapping their bodies in horse leather. She knew that war is the most ruthless and requires the most bloodshed.

Even if Lao Wu is really safe as my daughter said, I'm afraid he will shed a layer of his skin and suffer a lot.

"My daughter said that Lao Wu and General Meng are short of food." Zhen calmed her emotions and analyzed, "In the summer, food is collected and transported to the border. How long ago did they lack food? Could it be that the food was not transported at all? To the border…”

After all, Zhen had grown up in the capital, and even if she had not experienced the border battles, she had heard of them.

"Mom, this food is shipped from Huaicheng. I will go to Huaicheng Master Liu to inquire and find out what the specific news is..."

Hearing what Zhen said, Bai Dazhuang was the first to react!
"Okay, you go quickly." Baiban said.

"I'll go with the eldest brother." Bai Erzhuang stood up. The eldest brother was personally involved in everything during the autumn harvest, and he planned to go to Huaicheng with his eldest brother.

In addition to the magistrate, he also planned to go to Zhou's house to inquire about information.

After all, Zhou's son-in-law Zhongjing Houfu once supervised the army at the border.

Maybe he knows some news that even the prefect doesn't know.

Bai Dazhuang and Bai Erzhuang had no time to change their clothes, so they hurriedly hitched the carriage.

Knowing that her son had been tired all night and had not eaten breakfast, Mrs. Zhen handed the steamed buns and eggs on the table to the carriage so that the brothers could satisfy their hunger on the road.

"Brother, please go and ask the Jade Pavilion as well." Xiao Fuyuan chased after him and said.

Shopkeeper Ren of Jade Pavilion came to give Xiao Fuyuan accounts once a month. Although Xiao Fuyuan didn't understand the accounts, he didn't dare to neglect them at all.

Xiao Fuyuan felt that a shop as big as Feicui Pavilion, and Cheng Mei was the number one businesswoman in the world, must have news of her own, and if she went there to inquire, she might be able to get the latest news.

"Brother, you can also ask some Hu merchants who go to the border to deliver wool," Qiuniang said.

"I know." Bai Dazhuang started the carriage.

Once the Bai brothers left, no one in the Bai family was in the mood to work or eat.

Fortunately, the crops in the fields have been received at home, so there is no need to worry about going to the fields.

So, except Qiuniang who went to the embroidery workshop as usual, everyone else was waiting for news at home.

"Will fifth brother be okay?" Xie Chuntao, a pregnant woman, was the most uneasy.

"No!" Mrs. Bai was more certain than Xiao Fuyuan.

Bai Banban and Zhen asked Xiao Fuyuan to say "Fifth brother is safe" after a while.

Xiaofukuoka did as he was told!

"Dad, Mom, fifth brother will be fine." Xiao Fuyuan comforted his parents.

But what she didn't tell her parents was that just because Fifth Brother would be fine, it didn't mean that Fifth Brother would suffer.Bai Dazhuang and Bai Erzhuang came at ten o'clock in the morning.

Because they hadn't slept for two days and were asking for news, the brothers looked tired.

"What's going on? Have you found out?" Bai Banbo couldn't cover up his anxious mood.

"Dad..." Bai Dazhuang took a sip of water and said, "When we arrived at the magistrate's house, someone happened to report that the food shipped to the border had been robbed..."

Zhen really guessed it right!

"What, the food was robbed." Bai Banban became more and more certain that Xiao Fuyuan's dream was real. He couldn't help but feel distressed when he thought of Lao Wu killing enemies at the border and still starving.

"Who dares to rob the food shipped to the border?" Zhen muttered to herself.

This is what ordinary people don't know.

"What do you say, Mr. Liu?" Old Mrs. Bai asked.

Bai Dazhuang shook his head.

"The food was robbed... Mr. Liu was also shocked. We can't get involved in what happens next." Bai Erzhuang said.

The food shipped to the border has been robbed and has to be put aside as usual. When everyone hears this kind of news, they can only curse a few times and continue to live their lives.

But it's different now. Now Lao Wu is at the border.

But there is nothing we can do if we are anxious now.

"Father, mother, my second brother and I went to Mr. Liu's place, and we also met Hu Shang, who cooperates with our embroidery shop, and shopkeeper Ren of Feicui Pavilion..." Bai Dazhuang spoke slowly, then changed the subject and said, "I am the eldest brother. I can't watch my fifth brother in danger, I want to go to the border to deliver food to my fifth brother."

Bai Dazhuang's words shocked everyone in the Bai family.

"I agree with you, brother." Bai Erzhuang said, "I asked Mr. Liu, now that the border food province can survive for a month, we can still make it in time to deliver food to our fifth brother."

It seems that the brothers made their decision on the way here.

After a while, Baiban asked Xiao Fuyuan: "Daughter, if there is no food, do you think your fifth brother will be fine?"

Xiao Fuyuan shook his head and said, "Fifth brother will be fine."

"What about General Meng and the others?" Bai Banban said with difficulty.

Xiao Fuyuan didn't speak.

Now, everyone in the Bai family understood that Bai Zhaomei would not die even if there was no food, but the same could not be said for General Meng, Xie Xiaolian and others.

Xie Chuntao burst into tears. After all, Xie Xiaolian recognized her as her sister.

Poor Xie Xiaolian has lost her family since she was a child. If she died at the border, Xie Chuntao would feel empty inside.

Others also felt sad. After all, Xie Xiaolian and Wu Xiaoying were very familiar with the Bai family and helped the Bai family with farm work. Moreover, Xie Xiaolian was also Bai Zhaomei's master.

"If something happens to General Meng, Xie Xiaolian and the others, and we are the only one who will be fine, I guess the rest of my life will be difficult," said Zhen.

"Boss, the border is so far away, do you have any plans?" Bai Banban asked.

"Two Hu merchants who are familiar with Third Brother's shop happened to be going to the border. I went with them. The shopkeeper Ren of Jade Pavilion said that Butler Cheng has his own escort agency and can arrange for people from the escort agency to go together..." Bai Dazhuang was on his way here. I have already thought of my words.

"I'll go with my eldest brother," Bai Erzhuang said.

The Bai family fell into silence again.

After a long time, Zhen said: "I think it's okay for the boss and the second brother to go to the border to deliver food."

"The official food can be robbed, which shows that those people have a background. I'm afraid it will be too late if we wait for the second wave of food to be delivered. Let's go and deliver the food ourselves. Those who robbed the food probably won't think of us and won't pay attention to us." Ms. Zhen analyzed, "I guess apart from the difficult journey, the risk of being robbed is not great."

"Go deliver food." Xiao Fuyuan waved his fists with a determined look on his face.

When Mrs. Bai heard her granddaughter speak, she made up her mind and said, "Then go to the border to deliver food."
