"I didn't expect you to be a general? I thought..."

Suddenly, a pair of hot arms hugged Xia Qingqing, and she bumped into Huo Yihan's chest and was stunned.

"Qingqing..."

A hoarse voice sounded in Xia Qingqing's ears. She closed her eyes unconsciously, listening to her heart pounding in her chest and her cheeks burning.

dong dong dong.

"Master, Lord Fan said he has something to report and has been waiting outside for a long time."

Bai Mei's voice rang out, and Xia Qingqing quickly emerged from Huo Yihan's chest. She ruffled her already messy hair and said, "I'm going out for a walk. You talk to Lord Fan."

"Where are you strolling so late at night?" Huo Yihan smiled, as if he was very pleased to see Xia Qingqing so frightened.

"The weather is nice, I'm leaving now."

After talking nonsense for a while, Xia Qingqing rushed out, knocking Baimei and Fan Youliang who were at the door to the side.

"Ahem!" Fan Youliang frowned and said, "Boss Xia, you almost knocked me flying!"

Bai Mei was stunned and quickly grabbed Fan Youliang and asked, "What did you say? Is that old man the Xia family boss? Xia Qingqing?"

Fan Youliang's mouth twitched, he rolled his eyes, snorted "idiot" and walked into the stone shop.

He didn't expect that there were people who were even dumber than him!

He shouldn't have disturbed General Yi and his wife's long-awaited reunion, but he couldn't help it and had to report the truth, otherwise he was afraid that he would be killed in his sleep by some soldier who didn't know the truth.

When he entered the city just now, he had seen many centurions in the army showing murderous intentions towards him. It was so scary.

Baimei was completely dumbfounded. What made him even more speechless was that he smelled the smell of meat the moment he opened the door. He swallowed and shook his head and said, "I'm so hungry that I'm actually hallucinating."

"Baimei, come here."

Heiya poked his head out of another shop and called out to Baimei, who immediately turned around and followed him into the house. Just as he was about to ask him for details, he saw seven girls handing him half a piece of pancake.

"This is what Miss Xia gave us. We haven't eaten it yet. If you don't mind..."

Heiya also took out the remaining small piece of his own and stuffed it into his mouth, saying, "How could he dislike it?"

"I definitely don't mind, but I can't eat yours. You can keep it..." Baimei declined.

"The girl said that the food and fodder will arrive tomorrow. You can eat it." Chun Tao stuffed the remaining cakes to Bai Mei and said with a smile, "We will eat tomorrow. We are not hungry now."

Baimei's eyes dimmed as he looked at everyone and said, "Can the food and fodder really arrive? I feel it's just a temporary solution. I think we have to send Madam away before dawn tomorrow, otherwise..."

Chun Tao was a little puzzled and said, "I believe that young ladies won't make promises casually."

"We believe it too!" the other six girls said in unison.

After Xia Qingqing went out, she began to wander around the city, looking for a suitable place to put down all the supplies.

"Mr. Liao, what are you doing? This tiger-skin vest was given to you by the general as a reward for your bravery in killing the enemy. How can you take it out and eat it?"

Several soldiers gathered in front of a stone house. One of them snatched the tiger-skin vest away. Old Master Liao smiled and said, "At least it's something edible. It's better than starving you little guys to death. Just don't mind my stench!"

"Haha, Mr. Liao, we really admire you for still being able to make a joke at this time..."

"Every day I live is a day's work for an old man like me! I'll cut it up for you with a knife, one piece for each of you. You can nibble on it when you're hungry. It may smell like sweat, but it still has flavor, so don't be disgusted..."

Before Mr. Liao could even take out his knife, he heard the sobbing of a young man. He sobbed uncontrollably, saying incoherently, "I don't want to... I don't want to starve to death here... I'm scared..."

"I'm afraid to sleep, for fear that once I fall asleep I'll never wake up again."

……

The young man's sobbing filled the surroundings with sadness. Old Master Liao said, "Hei boy, think about how our General Yi, who was the same age as you, went to the battlefield and faced the same situation of starvation, but he managed to pull through. Within two years, he was made a marquis and a prime minister. If he can do it, so can you!"

Tear!

All he could hear was the sound of a tiger-skin vest being slashed by a dagger. Old Master Liao handed a piece of tiger skin to Xiao Hei and said, "Eat it. It will help you survive!"

Seeing their determined eyes, Xia Qingqing was also touched. When they were starving, they used leaves, bark, vests, belts...

I will eat anything that is edible, just to stay alive.

pat!

Just as Xiao Hei was about to put the tiger skin into his mouth, he saw a white, round object rolling to his feet, even with steam coming out of it.

Everyone's attention was drawn to this tiny thing. Old Master Liao rubbed his eyes, looked at everyone helplessly and said, "Haha, my eyes are really blurry. I actually saw a steamed bun..."

"Grandpa Liao, you, you, you're not mistaken, it's a steamed bun!" Xiao Hei picked up the bun, squeezed it, and carefully brushed off the snow on its surface. He then displayed it in front of everyone and shouted, "It's a steamed bun!!! It's really a steamed bun!"

Wow!

Suddenly there was a crackling sound, and a lot of steamed buns and pancakes fell from the sky, stunning the soldiers, their eyes becoming dull.

Only Xiao Hei was running around excitedly, shouting, "Steamed buns are falling from the sky! And flatbreads! And rice! And it's sweet!"

“And roast chicken!”

Xiao Hei, who took a bite of the big steamed bun, went crazy, running around and shouting, waking up all the soldiers who were originally asleep.

Before coming, a lot of cooked food was prepared and put to use first. Now we can no longer hide it. One more second may cause someone to starve to death or freeze to death.

People in the city began to gather here. Baimei had just taken a few bites of the pancake when he was disturbed by the noise. Everyone hurried out to maintain order.

He looked at the baskets of steamed buns, pots of rice and flatbreads and quickly responded, shouting, "Everyone line up and get your food one by one!"

Heiya and all the officers in the army came out to maintain order. Old Master Liao looked at the dark sky and said with tears in his eyes: "God has a vision and will help us to survive!"

"Immortal!"

The shouting of the crowd startled Xia Qingqing, who had already run to the city wall. A smile appeared on her face, and she immediately turned over and jumped down, starting to set up a "food and grass formation" at the city gate.

At Huo Yihan's steamed bun place, she saw the same steamed buns and roast chicken that she had just eaten, and thought of her omnipotent bag, and the corners of her mouth twitched.
