In the end, Huo Changze was knocked off the carriage by Shen Jiao.
He Qing on the side shook his head when he saw this scene. His general was good at fighting, but his chasing skills were really poor. He Qing could no longer count how many times a general had been kicked out by Mrs. Shen.
Huo Changze noticed He Qing's searching eyes. He stood up straight and looked over with a cold face, and said sternly: "You are very free here, aren't you? Have you finished the things assigned to you?!"
Facing Huo Changze's questioning, He Qing suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, thinking that the general was angry at him.
So he didn't dare to say that he had finished it, so he just responded and hurried away.
…
Because he had to rush to meet the soldiers stationed a hundred miles outside the city, Huo Changze did not choose to take the smooth official road, but chose the rugged mountain road.
At first, Shen Jiao could enjoy the scenery along the way with great interest, looking forward to what the customs and customs would be like on the border.
She also played cards with Bitao in the carriage, and whoever lost would paint a bastard on the face of the other person. She looks like a rich lady traveling leisurely.
But soon she couldn't be happy anymore. The road was rough and the carriage was really bumpy. Shen Jiao was about to be vomited while sitting in the carriage, and her whole little face turned pale.
Bi Tao was better than her, but she was not much better, and her complexion was also very poor.
Shen Jiao felt uncomfortable after riding in the carriage for too long. When she stopped to rest, she did not get off the carriage to eat something. Instead, she drank some water and lay down in the carriage to sleep.
After such a hard time, she lost a lot of weight. There was some soft flesh on her face, but now there is nothing. The chin is also a bit pointed, and the small face as big as a palm does not make Huo Changze feel bad.
However, Huo Changze still had something to do and couldn't take care of her all the time. Every time I hurried over, I was called away again after a while.
So Huo Changze could only tell Bi Tao to take good care of her, and sometimes ask He Qing to send some things over.
After enduring like this for several days, they finally reached the place where the army was stationed. After joining the army, they no longer had to rush.
Shen Jiao breathed a sigh of relief and could finally take a good rest.
Shen Jiao got off the carriage and was helped into the military tent by Bitao. She lay down and rested for a while. It didn't take long for Bi Tao to come with food.
Originally, Shen Jiao was still a little hungry, but when she saw that what Bi Tao brought was all meaty food, she immediately lost her appetite.
"Miss." Bitao called her.
Ever since Huo Changze made such a fuss at the funeral last time, the servants in the mansion no longer dared to call her Jiu Yiniang, but instead called her Miss Shen.
"You'd better eat something, these are the only things here." Bi Tao was also helpless. What marching and fighting people need most is high-calorie foods that can replenish their physical strength in time. These meat foods are the most popular.
As for those pancakes, they had long been tired of eating them on the carriage.
In order to let her eat two more bites, Bi Tao peeled off the oily skin on the outside of the roast chicken and tore it into pieces bit by bit. Then Shen Jiao reluctantly ate some.
It's just that Shen Jiao didn't eat well, so she started to ask Bitao about Qi Yu, "Bitao, have you visited A Yu? How is he?"
"Miss, don't worry about him. He is very well now. General Huo also asked someone to take care of him, but you... seem to have lost weight in the past few days. The general must blame me for not taking care of you. alright……"
Bitao complained as she put a big chicken drumstick in her bowl, "Come on, eat more, eat all these."
Shen Jiao blinked and looked at the small mountain piled up by Bitao with chicken legs, pork chops and beef in the bowl in front of her.
...Did Bitao treat her like a pig?
…
On the other side, Huo Changze was drinking with the young generals.
They were sitting around a campfire, where a suckling pig was being roasted, and a few soldiers were cutting it with knives.
After drinking for a while, he became hot and sweaty. Since he was surrounded by brothers anyway, Huo Changze simply took off his clothes, revealing his strong upper body, and continued to drink with them.
After chatting about military affairs for a while, those people brought the topic to Huo Changze.
"I heard that the general brought his family here this time?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's curiosity was immediately aroused.
"Yes, General, why don't you bring it out for all of us to see."
"Could it be that the general is married and is bringing the bride over?"
The wine bowl in Huo Changze's hand was already empty. He put down the wine bowl and glanced at them lightly. He smiled and said, "She is not feeling well, so let her rest more."
When everyone saw that Huo Changze did not deny it, they immediately started to boo.
"I didn't expect that, General, you would get a wife so soon after returning to Beijing!"
"The general is not only great at fighting, but he also gets married at a speed that I can't even match! Hahahaha!"
"Don't be poor." Huo Changze glanced at the moonlight and guessed that Shen Jiao was about to fall asleep. He felt uneasy and decided to go over and take a look. Then he stood up and told them: "You drink slowly, I will go over and take a look." .”
The generals didn't mind, they just smiled and said: "General, please take it easy, don't forget that you have to travel tomorrow, hahahaha!"
Everyone burst into laughter immediately.
The brothers in the military camp usually spoke like this without any scruples. Huo Changze didn't care, he just laughed and scolded them and left.
…
The conditions in the military camp were much more difficult than in the general's mansion.
Shen Jiao could tolerate the others, but she really couldn't bear the fact that she couldn't take a bath!
When she was on the road those days, Bi Tao would fetch her water and simply wipe it off. But simply wiping it can't get it clean. After this period of time, Shen Jiao felt that her body almost smelled!
It’s simply unbearable!
Just when Shen Jiao had the slightest idea of going back, He Qing had someone bring a bathtub and hot water over. It was said that Huo Changze arranged it specially for her.
So Shen Jiao's little thoughts were quickly extinguished.
She soaked happily in the hot water, thinking to herself, it seems that Huo Changze understands her quite well...
Bitao helped Shen Jiao wash up and then took the clothes she had changed out of the military tent, only to bump into Huo Changze.
Bitao was stunned for a moment, forgetting to salute for a moment, "General."
Huo Changze hummed, his eyes fell on the military tent behind her, and asked, "Has she fallen asleep already?"
Bi Tao replied softly: "I just fell asleep."
"You go down first." After saying that, Huo Changze opened the curtain and went in.
Bitao stood there and watched for a while, and finally left silently.
