Luo Shuiyao shook her head and said, "Of course not. You are all retired from the battlefield, and each of you is an expert in actual combat. I am already overjoyed to receive your guidance."

Yang Wei was a little surprised, "How do you know we all came from the battlefield?"

Yang Yong shook his pipe beside him. "What are you yelling about? We call ourselves Major Generals, and she saw that we were missing limbs. This girl is so smart, how could she not guess?"

Yang Wei stroked his beard and said, "Yeah! It was my fault for neglecting this matter."

Seeing that he looked like a rough and sturdy man but had a silly face, Luo Shuiyao pursed her lips slightly and looked at him with curved eyebrows. Ye Yunzhou, who was standing beside her, looked at him and smiled slightly.

Yang Wei laughed and said, "Thank you for the compliment, young lady. If those people heard it, I wonder how happy they would be."

He pushed the two plates of food in front of him and said, "Miss, please eat something. We don't have anything good here. I hope you won't mind."

"Of course not," Luo Shuiyao was afraid that he would think too much, so she picked up a steamed bun from the table.

This steamed bread was as big as an adult's fist and felt heavy in her hand. She had eaten a lot of snacks at Ruyi Tea House before, and now she really couldn't eat so much. She looked at the food in her hand with some embarrassment.

Ye Yunzhou glanced at her and said, "Give me half."

Luo Shuiyao looked at him in surprise, then lowered her head and cut the steamed bun into two, handing the larger half to Ye Yunzhou.

Ye Yunzhou took it from her naturally, broke off a piece and put it in his mouth. When he looked up, he saw Yang Wei winking at him again.

Ye Yunzhou: "..."

"Didn't you ask Miss Yao to pick someone? Why don't you go and call someone over?"

"Yes, I'll go right away," Yang Wei smiled ambiguously at Ye Yunzhou when he saw him starting to chase people away, and he also pulled away Yang Yong who had been sitting quietly at the table.

Yang Wei kept pulling Yang Yong to the back of the house before letting go.

"Second brother, I don't mean to criticize you, but why don't you take the initiative to avoid it? Don't you see that the young general is very close to that girl? We have to create some opportunities for them to spend more time together. Otherwise, with the young general's taciturn appearance, it will be difficult for him to find a beautiful woman in his lifetime."

Yang Yong was limping on one leg and was being pulled by Yang Wei. He jumped all the way. When he finally stood firm, he heard Yang Wei scolding him.

He angrily slapped Yang Wei on the back of the neck, "Don't I, your second brother, want to leave? If my legs were fine, I would have left long ago. Why would you tell me? I just kept winking at you, wanting you to take me away, but what did you do?"

Yang Wei looked at him with bared teeth and said weakly, "Didn't I take you away?"

"How dare you say that?"

"Pa!" Yang Yong slapped him again. "Who would drag a lame person along? I, your second brother, was almost dragged along by you."

Yang Wei shrank his neck, glanced at his second brother's angry look, and didn't dare to talk back.

As soon as the two brothers finished their scolding, the group of people who had eavesdropped on their conversation immediately came forward.

"Second brother, what's going on with you guys?"

A thin man asked curiously. There was a knife scar on his face from the corner of his eyebrow to his chin, so deep that the bone could be seen. Although the knife wound had healed long ago, it still looked extremely hideous and terrifying.

Yang Yong turned around and saw a crowd of people. He laughed and scolded, "Why don't you just stay in your room and come here to eavesdrop?"

The other man chuckled, "We're just curious. We heard the Major General and his wife were here, so we wanted to take a look. But Aunt Wu wouldn't let us go, saying we'd scare the lady. So we figured we could just sneak a peek when the lady comes out."

When Yang Wei saw them, he immediately put away his grin, straightened his clothes, cleared his throat and said, "That's not the lady. The Major General hasn't married yet. She's just a friend of his."

Before he could finish his words, the slightly younger boy behind him said, "How is that possible? If she wasn't his wife, how could the Major General bring her here?"

Yang Wei glared at him angrily and said, "Stop talking! I just said that she is not the major general's wife now, but I didn't say that she will not be in the future. You guys, remember to see the wife..." "Pooh."

Yang Wei almost blurted out the word "Madam" and quickly said "Puh" before continuing, "Remember not to talk nonsense when you see that girl, do you hear me?"

"Yes! We heard it," everyone stood up straight and answered in unison.

"Alright, alright, keep your voice down and don't disturb the Major General."

.........

On this side, Luo Shuiyao was a little surprised when she saw Ye Yunzhou eating the food in his hand without changing his expression. She didn't expect that someone of Ye Yunzhou's status would eat such a rough steamed bun.

Ye Yunzhou seemed to see the doubt in her heart and said, "I have eaten all kinds of food in the army before. This is already considered good."

Luo Shuiyao's expression froze: Oh no, did I say what was in my heart?

Ye Yunzhou chuckled and shook his head, "What you're thinking is reflected on your face, eat quickly."

Luo Shuiyao felt a little embarrassed, and responded lightly with "Oh", then lowered her head and took a bite of the steamed bun in her hand.

After taking a bite, my throat felt dry and hoarse.

She thought of the present life, and the soldiers during the most difficult period of the country. They ate fried noodles that could choke them, and fought against people who were much stronger than them. At that time, they couldn't even eat such steamed buns.

She thought of Yang Wei, Yang Hua and others whom she had just met, and her eyes began to well up unconsciously.

The people of the Flower Planting Family, regardless of gender, age or status, have always had a natural fondness and love for soldiers since childhood. Even now, after the passage of time and space, this feeling still exists.

Ye Yunzhou noticed that she was in a low mood, so he looked down at her and said, "If you can't swallow it, don't eat it. Give it to me." As he said that, he was about to take the half-eaten steamed bun from her hand.

Luo Shuiyao avoided his outstretched hand and said with a smile: "No, it's delicious and smells delicious when chewed."

This is true. Although this steamed cornbread is a bit irritating to the throat and has a rough texture, the natural multi-grain steamed bun tastes very good when chewed.

With this smile, the tears that had been in her eyes rolled down from the corners of her eyes.

Luo Shuiyao wanted to raise her hand to wipe away her tears, but Ye Yunzhou got there first. He gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with his fingertips, and a look flashed in his eyes that she couldn't understand.

Luo Shuiyao “…”

Luo Shuiyao was stunned. She looked at Ye Yunzhou with a confused expression, her star-like eyes fluttering slightly, "What are you doing?"

Ye Yunzhou's hand, which had not yet been retracted, froze in mid-air. Seeing Luo Shuiyao's puzzled expression, he opened his lips slightly, not knowing how to answer.
