Mrs. Xu secretly scolded Liu Laozhu in her heart for being unreliable and losing the chain at every critical moment.

And it's fine to expect her to speak up, but she even dared to peek at her granddaughter to attract ambiguous eyes.

Because here, when more than a dozen strong guys are standing there, and Liu Laozhu is Li Zheng, the general environment is here, and the opponent is usually male first.

Unless these men work for her or she is very old and senior.In short, at a glance, you can understand that everyone respects her, otherwise the other party will not look at the accompanying women in the team when they greet each other.

And she is still respected in this team, even if the other party doesn't see it.

Then there's nothing wrong with her speaking up.

But when Liu Laozhu looked at her granddaughter, it was simply off the charts.

Imagine, a group of elders who are uncles and grandfathers are silent, and a skinny girl in her early ten years is pushed out to speak on behalf of everyone, what will the other party think of our group?What would she think of her granddaughter?This kind of limelight is ambiguous.

Mrs. Xu didn't have time to stare at Liu Laozhu right now, and she knew she couldn't count on him, so she had to endure the pain in her knees, and stepped forward two steps forward: "My lord, the grassroots are from Erdaohe Village, Helan Town, Pingzhou County."

Shi'an was a little surprised. He didn't expect that none of these strong men spoke. They seemed a little nervous, and the one who spoke was an old woman.The old woman smiled sincerely and was grateful.

"Grandma, just call me Shi'an. I'm not a grown-up, but I'm lucky enough to work by the general's side."

We can't really just call people if they let us, and we will return to the seventh-rank officials in front of the prime minister's door.

Mrs. Xu continued to introduce where they came from, where they were going, why they were traveling in this weather, and what kind of combination they had.

Tell Shi'an that they are not a family, but representatives of each household in a village are helping the village to buy, so that the living materials of the villagers can be cheaper.We are not pretending to be ordinary people and pretending to meet Huo Jiajun by chance.

Of course, the other party must have seen that they are ordinary people, otherwise they would not help.

But people can see it, so we have to explain it clearly.

In Mrs. Xu's view, this is a matter of politeness, and people should know who they are helping.What's more, whether Shi'an is the general's servant or his personal guard, if the general asks about the situation of their group, Shi'an will have something to say.

Mrs. Xu explained clearly in just a few words.

Then she solemnly expressed to Shi'an the surprise of meeting Huo Jiajun on the road, and said whatever was on her mind.

"The Huo family's Bow, Bingjianshuang, Longhorse Scimitar, the Battle of the Northwest, the Desert Dust, the Battle of the Hunhe River, and the Flying Mountains to defend the frontier. Over the years, they have made many military exploits. These battles are invincible. Don't look at the countryside, everyone faces the loess I can say a few words with my back turned to the sky, even the old woman I know."

Mrs. Xu told Shi'an that she had heard about it, so compared to other cities, the people in the border town paid more attention to it and understood the significance of the arrival of Huo's army.

They have long been looking forward to this day.

Because the common people know better than anyone else, only the iron-blooded division will make the Huns and Tatars dare not disturb them anymore.Only in the sound of Huo's army's hooves is Ansai and Jingbian where the Hu people retreat, and the common people can live in peace.

"You have to let me say something for ordinary people like me, the Huo family army is here, and our hearts are finally at ease."

Shi An's face became serious.

At first, he thought it was ordinary people, and life in the village was difficult, and they were too busy to feed and clothe themselves. Their knowledge was limited. What's more, he was just an old woman. He should see them trembling because of nervousness and timidity, just like the old man beside him. , simply thank you for two words.

They are nothing more than just helping out in case of unforeseen circumstances.

But I didn't expect to hear such heartfelt words and see such sincere faces.

Shi'an felt that he must write down these words and pass them on to the general, because these words came from the hearts of the people, and the general must be happier after listening to them than hearing the court's awards.

What Shi'an didn't know was that the above was not the focus of Mrs. Xu.

The point is to connect the past and the future, and want to highlight their excitement.

"You don't know that when we were in Fucheng, many people were eagerly looking forward to going outside the city to take a look, but our group not only saw it, but also received the kindness of the Huo family army.

To tell you the truth, just now we heard the introduction from those officers and men that Huo Jiajun was helping us, and we almost thought it was a misunderstanding, so we couldn't believe it.

Until it is confirmed, I feel that Sansheng is lucky, warm in my heart, and the kindness is unforgettable..."

Mrs. Xu then said, looking at the boys in the village, she has already paved the way here, don't you know how to thank you?
I can't count on that old guy Liu Laozhu, I hope these young kids can do it.

Sure enough, the boys understood, and what they said was true:

"The goods are not lost at all, and they were helped by the Huo family army that I want to see the most... Sir, we, no, the grassroots are very grateful, but I don't know what to say."

This time Shi An's smile was much more real.

Before, I just wanted to find a place to stay for these fellow villagers, and I didn't care about the rest.After all, it was too much trouble for them to set up camp, and they just wanted to pack lightly and leave quickly.They follow the style of the generals, and they are used to dealing with soldiers as quickly as possible, but after hearing these heartfelt words, Shi'an wants to treat the fellow villagers better.

Shi'an looked at Mrs. Xu, and said kindly: "Grandma, these are what we should do, you don't need to be polite. You come with me, and I will tell you where to boil water and cook rice. I will just show you where yours is. Where are the mules and oxen?"

I took it myself.
