Shu Fan puffed out his chest and said proudly, "They were all designed by my aunt, but they weren't made by her. They were made by some uncles from the village chief's family."

"What about these things? We have never seen them before." Langya held the soap tightly.

Just now, the young master of the general's family said that this thing can be used to wash face, hands and take a bath, and he can smell the fragrance from a long distance away.

No wonder when he saw the general yesterday, he always felt that he smelled good. It turned out that it was the smell of these things?

When Shu Fan heard his question, his eyes flickered, "They were all bought by my aunt."

Of course he knew that this was a gift from the gods, but he couldn't tell this to outsiders.

And he is still a child, so no one will ask him about his background.

Sure enough, Langya didn't ask any more questions after hearing this. He just grinned and said, "When we're done fighting, I'll buy some of these things too."

"Boss, what are you going to do with these?" Big Head asked stupidly.

Langya rolled his eyes at him. "Look at our general. He'll spruce himself up whenever he gets the chance. And he already has a wife. If I do my best, won't I be able to find a wife too?"

"Oh, boss, you want a wife?" Big Head said bluntly.

Langya almost wanted to cover his mouth, "Alright, alright, hurry up and wash up and go eat, I don't even want to talk to you anymore."

He was really impressed by Datou. He was invincible and brave on the battlefield, but in life he was like a fool and his words were not pleasing at all.

Both of them were very surprised when using toothpaste and toothbrush, and it took them a long time to finish washing.

At this time, Lu Yanzheng also came over with Old Man Lu and Chen. Old Man Lu and Lu Yanzheng were each holding a long bench in their hands.

"General!" Big Head and Langya both saluted Lu Yanzheng.

Lu Yanzheng waved his hand at them and said, "You don't have to do this in the village. Come into the kitchen and eat."

There is no main room in the house, so there is no dedicated place to eat. Before, Jiang Qinyu always ate in the kitchen with her two children.

When they came in, Jiang Qinyu and Pan'er had already set the table. Seeing the stool in Lu Yanzheng's hand, Jiang Qinyu smiled and said, "I was just saying I was going to borrow a stool from Dad, but you brought it here."

Seeing this, Langya quickly said, "Madam, we can eat while standing."

"How can that be?" Jiang Qinyu looked at him with a smile, "Please sit down."

After saying that, she greeted Old Man Lu and Chen, and the group finally sat down.

Today's breakfast was very rich. Lu Yanzheng used half of the things Jiang Qinyu had placed in the cupboard.

Stir-fried bacon with garlic sprouts, scallion pancakes, boiled lettuce, pickled radish cubes, and dried pickles fried in hot oil...the whole table was filled with them.

"General, this... our meal is too good, isn't it?" Langya stared at the food on the table in amazement. "How about calling the other brothers over to eat together?"

They had been walking in the mountains for more than half a month and had long been fed up with having to make do with just enough every day. When he suddenly saw such a good meal, he thought of his group of brothers.

"You two are injured and need to eat something good to replenish your body. I will also tell other people about it so that they won't suffer any loss." Lu Yanzheng said lightly.

Langya looked at Jiang Qinyu, then hesitantly said, "But General, we don't have any money!"

After eating someone else's food, shouldn't they give him money? Surely not? The general has always forbidden them from taking even a single needle or thread from the people.

"I don't have it, but the Yongshan County Magistrate does." Lu Yanzheng said casually, then looked at Old Man Lu and Chen, "Dad, Mom, eat quickly."

Old Man Lu and Mrs. Chen felt a little uncomfortable eating at the same table with the two wounded soldiers, but when they saw that they were very respectful to Lu Yanzheng and did not show any displeasure to the two old men, they felt relieved.

When Langya heard him say this, he immediately understood and clapped his hands and laughed, "Great! That bastard official should have been hacked to pieces long ago. We can use his money without any guilt!"

The meal was not lively, but the speed was not slow. The two wounded soldiers and Lu Yanzheng all had big appetites. Fortunately, Lu Yanzheng knew his own business and made a big pot of millet porridge, otherwise it might not be enough.

After dinner, Chen helped clean up the kitchen, while Lu Yanzheng and the two wounded soldiers went into the house to talk.

"Eldest brother's wife, please send some water to them. Is there any sugar at home? Make some sugar water." Chen said while washing dishes.

Jiang Qinyu was boiling water and said, "Mom, I won't bother. The water will be ready soon."

She still had a lot of white sugar in her hand, so she could still afford to drink the sugar water.

Jiang Qinyu mixed the sugar water and brought it to Lu Yanzheng and the others. When she entered the room, she saw Langya banging the table.

"Damn it! That Zhu Youcai is such a piece of shit! He's embezzled so much of our military pay over the years, and this year he even lost 10,000 dan!"

Datou frowned and said worriedly, "General, what will our border troops do without that batch of food?"

Lu Yanzheng sighed softly, "Now all I can do is use the silver Zhu Youcai left behind to buy food from the surrounding prefectures."

"Fortunately, the general took us to Xiqiang to rob a batch of food, otherwise the entire border town would be impossible to defend." Langya also knew that things were difficult. No matter how angry or anxious he was, it was useless. Now he was just glad that they still had Lu Yanzheng to find a solution.

At this time, Jiang Qinyu came in with some sugar water, "Drink some water to moisten your throat."

She placed the syrup on the table, turned around and walked back. When she reached the door, she suddenly turned around and looked at Lu Yanzheng and said, "Is there a possibility that Zhu Youcai was deceived by the One-Eyed King?"

"What do you mean?" Lu Yanzheng stared into her eyes and asked in confusion.

Jiang Qinyu pondered for a moment and spoke, "You told me before that the one-eyed king that Zhu Youcai mentioned told him that the 10,000 dan of military pay was lost. But since they've been searching for it for so long and still can't find it, could it be that the food wasn't lost at all, and the one-eyed king wanted to keep it all for himself, so he made up this lie?"

"That's right!" Langya said excitedly, "What Madam said is not impossible. General, how about we send some people to Qinggang Mountain to have a thorough search?"

Lu Yanzheng didn't answer him, but looked at Jiang Qinyu and asked, "Do you really think so?"

Jiang Qinyu was stunned. "I was just expressing my thoughts. Although we robbed Qinggang Mountain before, we didn't know about the 10,000 stone military pay. After you told me, I started to think that if something is missing, it must have been taken away and lost, or someone hid it so that no one would find it."

Lu Yanzheng kept staring at her, as if trying to judge whether what she said was true.

Jiang Qinyu had a clear conscience on this point, so she was not afraid to look him in the eye and looked straight into his eyes.

Then Jiang Qinyu discovered that Lu Yanzheng’s eyes were really beautiful... Well, now is not the time to appreciate beauty.

However, in order to prevent Lu Yanzheng from noticing anything, Jiang Qinyu did not look away.

Lu Yanzheng looked at her for a long moment before looking away. "Qinqin is right. Langya, you and Datou's injuries aren't serious. Let's go to the county government office today and ask Qin Shen to send some people to you..."

Before he could finish his words, Qin Shen's voice came from outside the yard, "General, I have something important to report!"
