Traveling through time as a peasant girl to turn things around

Everyone had a hearty meal and a good nap. "It was a good sleep, and I felt relaxed all over." "Me too." The fourth child said, "It seems everyone is in good spirits."

"It's time for breakfast," the fourth brother called out. "I'm not hungry, fourth brother." "I'm not hungry either," the fourth brother said, seeing that no one was hungry. "Have some porridge," he said, dividing the dry rations, three rations per person. Most of the wounded had recovered. Chai Zhen had the seriously injured take the carriage, while he sat by the shaft, holding Guoguo and continuing on his way. The fourth brother told everyone that the weapons had been hidden and that they should just drive the horses. Everyone sat down and ate two bowls of sweet potato and millet porridge. Guoguo gave the wounded medicine while Chai Hua changed the dressings. After a short rest, Guoguo didn't take the tent away, but left it on the carriage. Chai Hua: "Let's go." He looked at everyone—riders, drivers, and the seriously injured in the carriage. Not a single person was left behind, and he walked last. They continued on their way.

Arriving at the front, everyone fed the five hundred-plus horses with hay and water, then paused for a long time. Once Little Milk Bag drank the spiritual spring water, the horses became obedient, following the cart without needing to be driven. Chai Hua was at the rear. Lao Si and Li Biaotou patrolled the front and rear! They didn't stop for lunch, resting only after dark. They cooked.

After dinner, everyone sat together and chatted. The fourth brother took out his purse and said, "We won't give away the weapons we confiscated. We'll share the money. This trip wasn't in vain. I counted it, and there's quite a bit of money." With that, the fourth brother burst into laughter, and everyone knew that everyone had gone to search the enemy. "There's no way to divide the notes. We'll divide the money when we get home. I'll just give the cash, twenty taels each, and the rest will be divided up when we go back." Little Milk Bag produced a number of colorful purses, and Chai Hua, the fourth brother, and Sun Quan all came to help fill them. "Twenty taels each, count them yourselves." "Trust you, fourth brother, any amount is fine. We earned it for free." "Yes, we earned it cleanly." As the purses were passed out one by one, everyone looked at the purses, seeing the silver. They were happy to have earned it for free, and imitated the fourth brother in counting each piece. ...Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Everyone laughed, and their fatigue eased. The fourth brother encouraged everyone, saying, "Let's work harder and earn more money from now on!" ...The yamen runners were also delighted. They hadn't expected such a good thing to happen. It was more than their annual wages. They'd come back next time, just like the people in Taohua Village said, working with the Chai family would only get better and better. ... Hard work and suffering were nothing to them. They were only afraid of fighting. Alas...

For several consecutive days, Chai Hua let the fourth brother go last, and he informed the general in advance.

Three times a day, Little Milk Bag made sure the wounded took their medicine, and they were almost fully recovered. One day, not far from the battlefield, Huo Ying arrived with a group of men. Little Milk Bag spotted Huo Ying from a distance and called out, "Auntie! Auntie!" Huo Ying stopped her horse, dismounted, walked over, picked up Guo Guo, and said, "You're Guo Guo, right? I saw you when you were little!" "Yes, I'm Guo Guo. Auntie's lost weight. You have to take care of yourself. I'll take good care of you." Huo Ying said, "You're so young, worrying about the adults. You must have suffered all the way." "Guo Guo, it's okay. Grandpa is holding Guo Guo. Auntie, look behind you!" Huo Ying said, "So many horses!" Huo Ying looked carefully. "Great horses! War horses!" They looked like enemy horses. "What are these?" Guo Guo said, "These are spoils of war along the way, captured from the enemy." Huo Ying understood. Feeling heavy, yet relieved, she said, "Let's go to our camp to rest. Thank you for your hard work!"

Chai Zhen asked Huo Ying if there was a food shortage these days. Huo Ying replied, "The soldiers can only eat half full. The country is poor, and the harvest is hard." "Thank you, Uncle! With this batch of grain, our soldiers will get through the winter." Chai Zhen felt bad. The soldiers were fighting on the front lines, yet they weren't getting enough to eat. Just look at the soldiers Yingzi brought with her; they were malnourished! Little Milk Bag saw that Great Grandpa was distressed and said, "Grandpa, it will be fine." "Yeah." "Auntie," Little Milk Bag looked at Huo Ying. Huo Ying suddenly realized, "Ah! Ah!" Huo Ying carried Little Milk Bag and walked back. When they reached a deserted place, Little Milk Bag waved his hand, and a large field of fat pigs, fat cattle, and sheep appeared before their eyes. Huo Ying: "Guoguo, so much!" "Well, the soldiers are fighting for their country, they need to eat well." Guoguo said: "This is raised in our village, and the whole village gave it to us. The county magistrate also raised a lot of food. This is all donated by the people of the entire county, not just one person." Huo Ying: "Thank you all very much. I will have the general report to the emperor and reward you with Taohua County." Guoguo: "That's not necessary. Auntie, we are all volunteers, we don't want any reward." Huo Ying: "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you."

Huo Ying dispatched soldiers to drive the livestock back to the camp. She rode away on horseback, holding Guoguo in her arms.

They arrived at the military camp after dark. General Ma was waiting at the main gate. The general's laughter could be heard from afar. Chai Hua and the general's guards personally searched for the warehouse. The general arrived and said, "Go in first, eat and wash up." Guoguo: "Auntie, find a place. I'll get the medicine out." Huo Ying carried Guoguo to the place where they had stored the herbs last time, the general's residence. "This is where the general and I live. It's safe here." Huo Ying led Guoguo to a large room and said, "Let's put it here. We'll be safe and secure with our own people." Guoguo: "Auntie, put me down." "Okay." Huo Ying went to guard the gate. The little baby waved his tiny hand, and sacks of herbs appeared on the ground. There were also Western medicines, the finest anti-inflammatory Yunnan Baiyao, and hemostatics. After putting the medicine away, Guoguo said, "Auntie, come in." Huo Ying entered and closed the door. Guoguo. "Auntie, take a look and write this down," Little Milkbag squatted on the ground, taking out a ballpoint pen. "This is anti-inflammatory medicine. Don't read the other small print, just look at what Guoguo wrote. Anti-inflammatory medicine, Yunnan Baiyao for hemostasis, and antipyretic medicine." Huo Ying listened carefully. Guoguo explained that the military doctor said the medicine they had given her last time was so effective it saved many soldiers' lives, especially the hemostatic, anti-inflammatory, and antipyretic medicines! Huo Ying knew these were life-saving and effective medicines for treating the wounded. She didn't ask where they came from, simply noting their merits. She also had to keep the Chai family's secret. "Uncle Chen Jun picked all the herbs in the woods, and they're all processed and ready to use." "Auntie, I'll find a big room and get some vegetables for you to eat." Huo Ying: "Let's go to the barn." "Okay, Auntie." Huo Ying picked up Guoguo and went to the barn. She looked at the door. Little Milkbag took out all the vegetables he had picked from the space, filling the entire room. "Auntie!" Huo Ying heard Guoguo's cry and pushed the door open. "Ah!!!!" She was stunned. "So many." "Well, let the soldiers eat it. They are all grown on our own land. The villagers also gave us some, and we brought them all." "Auntie, if the potatoes have sprouted, don't eat them. If you keep them, they will be poisonous, but they can be planted. Potatoes are best stored in a dry and cool place." Sweet potatoes should also be stored in a dry and cool place. It is best to store vegetables in a cellar. Huo Ying: "Okay, Auntie, I remember that. I will arrange for someone to dig a cellar right away."

Pigs, cattle, sheep, food, horses, general adjutant, arrangements.

"Auntie, let's go to the warehouse," Huo Ying said. "Guoguo needs to put the grain in," she whispered. "Guoguo, the grain is already being unloaded from the carts." Guoguo whispered in Huo Ying's ear, "Also, the soldiers need to be well fed so they have the strength to fight the enemy." Huo Ying carried Guoguo to the warehouse. The carts were unloading, bags of grain being put into the warehouse. Seeing that the unloading was almost done, Huo Ying asked the soldiers to withdraw and took everyone to wash up and eat. The soldiers helped drive the carts and led the horses out to feed them. Then the group left. The adjutant locked the door and went to the front to report. Huo Ying carried Guoguo to another room. The windows were tight and the door was solid. Guoguo said, "This is the room." The little milk bag waved his hand, and the whole room was filled with food. "Auntie, this is rice. Find another room." Huo Ying said excitedly, "Okay!" Huo Ying opened the door next to him and said, "These are all from our own treasury, don't worry." Huo Ying watched the door, and the little milk bag put out the food. "Okay." Huo Ying opened the door and saw another room full of food. "This is enough for the soldiers to eat for a long time." Guoguo: "This is white flour, Auntie, find another room." "Okay," and came to the side again. The little milk bag put out another room full of food. "This is cornmeal. Corn paste is very fragrant, delicious and nutritious. Steamed buns made with white flour and yellow flour are delicious." Huo Ying said, "The steamed buns made with leavened flour are delicious. I will let people eat them both." Guoguo asked again, " "Auntie, when will this war end?" Huo Ying, "Well, we have to drive the enemy away. The soldiers and civilians at the border are not having a good time. In our free time, we also open up wasteland, train soldiers and farm. Otherwise, we will starve to death. It's so hard." Guoguo, "Attack from within the enemy." Huo Ying, "Ah? Ah!" Guoguo said again, "We encountered the enemy on the way here. We can try this method. Attack the enemy from within, go behind the enemy and hit the enemy's lair." Huo Ying, "Wait, I'll talk to the general. This is a good idea. Guoguo, how can you be so smart? Be my daughter!" "Guoguo has a stepmother. You should still be my aunt!" Huo Ying had nothing to say, "Why don't I have this blessing!" "You're too late. It's good to be an aunt. Guoguo won't bring you food anymore." "Don't be sad, Auntie. It's good to have a niece like you! It's so great! Hahaha!" Huo Ying laughed heartily! Hahahahahahahaha! Guoguo also laughed, "Yes, yes. You see, I am thinking about Auntie." "Auntie, I am satisfied. Your family is all right!" "Okay." Guoguo knew that Auntie wanted to know about Chai Ye's situation. She would tell you tonight. Huo Ying locked the three warehouse doors and picked up Guoguo. "Let's go eat."

In the hall, the general said, "Thank you, everyone. Thank you to all the people of Taohua Village for sending us food. You've worked hard all the way." Chai Zhendao said, "General, it was Mr. Zhang from Taohua County who led us." "Ah, yes," the general quickly said, "Thank you, Taohua County. Everyone, wash up, eat, and rest. It's not been easy on this journey. I won't say much. Let's eat."

Huo Ying carried Guoguo to the hall and fed her. "Oh, we have to make food for the child," Chai Zhen said, holding Guoguo over. "Let me feed her." Guoguo slapped her head. "I forgot," she whispered into Chai Zhen's ear. "I forgot to give Auntie the eggs." "Then I'll give them to you later. Grandpa will feed you some porridge." "The food is okay. It looks like it's specially made for everyone." Guoguo wasn't picky about food; she'd eat anything Grandpa fed her. The little girl ate little, so she'd only take a few bites and then stop. She'd nibble on the bread. Huo Ying had a simple meal and picked up Guoguo, "Come on, auntie will take you to play." Huo Ying left the house and carried Guoguo to the military camp. The soldiers were busy washing clothes and cooking. Huo Ying said, "We are busy fighting during the day, training, digging wild vegetables, and clearing wasteland, so we are late for dinner." Guoguo said, "Auntie, let's go to the kitchen?" "Okay." The little milk bag opened his eyes wide and saw the water in the water tank and asked, "Why is the water so muddy!" Huo Ying: "Oh, water supply is a problem!" The source is in another country, and they have cut off the water supply. The water we drink is stagnant water, and it is almost gone. When the little milk bag heard it, he burst into tears, whimpering ... The little baby was crying breathlessly, and Huo Ying couldn't comfort him. He quickly carried Guoguo back to find Chai Zhen. As soon as he entered the door, he shouted, "Second uncle, come and comfort Guoguo, second uncle..."
