In the years of famine, in troubled times, the koi sweet wife is omnipotent

"Daddy! Take care."

As soon as they walked out of the yard, three young and cute figures appeared behind them reluctantly.

Before leaving, Gu Huaijin went to the room to check on the sleeping children. He was afraid of waking them up, so he was very careful when leaving.

I didn't expect that they were pretending to be asleep and ran out.

"Pingle, Ankang, Xinyao."

Gu Huaijin squatted down, and the three children immediately threw themselves into his arms crying.

When everyone saw this scene, they wiped the tears from their faces and felt extremely sad.

"Be good and wait for Daddy to come back home. Once Daddy finishes the war, I will never be separated from you again. Also, be sensible at home and listen to Mommy, okay?"

Gu Huaijin kissed the three children on the cheeks, feeling very reluctant to leave.

"Don't worry, Daddy. We will listen to Mommy's words."

The faces of these sensible children were all covered with tears.

After Gu Huaijin wiped them off gently, he stood up and looked at his mother, "Mom! Don't send me off. Take the children back and rest."

"okay."

Tang Guifang nodded, took the hands of her three children, and returned to the house. Looking at their backs as they left, she couldn't help but shed tears.

After Xia Wanwan was sent to the bridge at the village entrance, Gu Huaijin no longer let her go. He reached out and gently held her in his arms, kissed her brow, and said distressedly: "Go back, my lady, you've been tired all day."

"You must return safely."

Xia Wanwan put her arms around his waist, stood on tiptoe, and kissed him on his thin lips.

Gu Huaijin's heart was beating wildly with excitement, and he couldn't help but deepen the kiss.

Everyone wisely turned around, avoided the sight, and walked forward.

After a while.

Gu Huaijin was reluctant to leave, so he turned around, took out a flashlight, and left with his brothers.

"Brother-in-law! What's that in your hand? It's so bright, it feels brighter than the torch in my hand."

Liu Zhi asked in shock when he saw that he was holding a glowing object in his hand and could actually see a hundred meters away.

"I don't know. My wife found it in the mountains."

Gu Huaijin made up an excuse to get away with it.

"Picked it up? Where did you pick it up? I want to pick one up too."

Wang Dahai fell in love with the flashlight at first sight and threatened to pick one up.

"Okay, when you come back alive, my wife and I will take you to pick one up. The prerequisite is that you can save your life on the battlefield."

Gu Huaijin's words made Wang Dahai dare not say a word.

He was also reminding people that swords on the battlefield have no eyes and people can be sacrificed at any time, but it is not too late to regret now.

However, instead of retreating, everyone moved forward at a faster pace.

"When I get to the battlefield, I'll kill two enemies first to liven things up."

Liu Zhi didn't look like he was flinching at all.

"Me too."

"I want to kill the enemy to cheer you up too."

When Gu Huaijin saw this scene, he suddenly felt sad. He knew that if he brought them into the military camp, they would most likely lose their lives.

But now the military strength of Jin State is far less than that of a few years ago. The successive attacks of the seven countries in recent years have led to the decline of national financial resources and the reduction of military strength by at least half. It is the time when a large number of soldiers are needed.

Now we are facing an even bigger problem, that is, Jin State has suffered from disasters in the past two years, with droughts and floods, resulting in no harvest in many places and many people have starved to death.

After Xia Wanwan saw that Gu Huaijin and the others had completely disappeared from her sight, she took out a flashlight, turned on the light and went home.

When I walked in, I saw a backpack full of mushrooms on the floor of the main hall, and the figure of Gu Huaijin appeared in my eyes.

"You must come back safely."

Xia Wanwan prayed silently in her heart, and then checked to see if she had picked up any poisonous mushrooms.

After finding that there was no problem, I went to bed.

The next day.

Early in the morning, Xia Wanwan got up and went to the kitchen to steam a pot of white steamed buns.

When the children smelled the aroma, they immediately ran into the kitchen and asked happily, "Mom! What delicious food are you making? Why does it smell so good?"

"Mom made steamed white flour buns with a little bit of sugar, so they taste slightly sweet."

Xia Wanwan didn't want to add sugar, but was afraid it would be too bitter and hard to swallow, so she just added a little bit.

"Mantou? Are you talking about the hard, filling kind?"

Gu Xinyao's eyes lit up, and she stood on tiptoe curiously, looking at the steamed buns in the pot, "Wow~ They really are steamed buns, and they are so white."

The three children had never eaten hot steamed buns since they were young, and had no idea that steamed buns could also taste soft and sweet.

In the past, they had only eaten the steamed buns that the original owner, Xia Wanwan, had not finished, and they had become hard after being left for a day or two.

Even if it falls on the ground, the children will not waste it. They will pick it up, divide it equally and eat it.

Thinking of this, Xia Wanwan said sadly: "The steamed buns made by mother are soft, sweet and delicious, not the hard ones~"

Then she picked up a few more steamed buns in the bamboo basket and gave them to Gu Pingle, "Pingle, take this to your aunt's house and then come back for dinner."

"Good girl."

Gu Pingle is the most sensible, so Xia Wanwan lets him go without worry.

"Xinyao, Ankang, you two go out and play first. Mom will pack the food and bring it up the mountain. We'll eat together with grandma."

After Xia Wanwan finished speaking, she saw the children go out, picked up the remaining steamed buns and put them into a clean bamboo basket, and finally put the porridge into the basin, then she smiled with satisfaction.

I thought she woke up early enough, but I didn't expect that in order to do more work, my mother went to the mountains before dawn.

"Master! I want to eat steamed buns, too."

When Dahong smelled the fragrance, his stomach growled with hunger, and he stuck out his tongue and was almost drooling.

"Huh? You snakes... can eat steamed buns?"

Xia Wanwan also knew a thing or two about what snakes ate. Ninety-nine percent of them were carnivorous, and only a few species were vegetarians.

But it is unheard of that snakes would eat steamed buns.

Maybe there is, but she just hasn't heard of it.

"Edible."

The big red chick nodded like pecking at rice, afraid that Xia Wanwan would not give it food.

"With your appetite, I'm afraid even dozens of them wouldn't be enough to satisfy you. Why didn't you tell me earlier? I would have made more. Now I can only give you two."

Xia Wanwan picked up two steamed buns, thinking that it would take a while for it to eat since it was small now.

In order to avoid being seen by the children and scaring them, he also thought about lowering his wide sleeves to cover up the way he was eating.

However, the next second.

"Gudong~"

Two steamed buns are not enough to fill the gaps between Dahong’s teeth.

Xia Wanwan; “…”

The steamed buns are gone in seconds?

"Master! I'm still so hungry..."

Dahong was like Zhu Bajie eating the ginseng fruit. He swallowed it before he could taste it, and then looked at Xia Wanwan pitifully again.

Xia Wanwan quickly put the steamed bun aside and said, "No, you can't eat this steamed bun. If you eat it again, we will be hungry in the morning."

But she knew that she couldn't let Dahong starve.

Then the next second, a few chickens and two ducks appeared in his hands.

"Wow~ My favorite chicken, thank you Master."

Dahong happily slid down from Xia Wanwan's wrist, opened his mouth and swallowed the chicken in one gulp.

"Mom! I'm back."

After delivering the steamed buns to Gu Baozhu's house, Gu Pingle returned soon.

Before Xia Wanwan could stop him from coming in, Gu Pingle was already standing at the kitchen door.

As soon as he entered the kitchen, he saw the little snake eating the big chicken. He was so shocked that the bamboo basket fell to the ground.

Xia Wanwan: “…”

Damn it, I hope the child is not scared!

Gu Huaijin had just left for one night. If the child was frightened and hurt, not only would she feel heartbroken, but she would not be able to clear her name even if she jumped into the Yellow River.
