Wen Jin quickly handed over another pot and filled it with soup that was not hot yet.
Yu'er held it with both hands and drank a few gulps.
"Slow down, slow down, you have always been polite when eating, why did you choke yourself today?" Wen Jin gently stroked his son's back.
Yu'er choked with tears in her eyes, "I...cough, who has suffered this for so many years? Even when I was a child, you never let me go hungry! I'm still growing! Hungry Fast!"
"Huh..." Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
It turns out that I wasn’t poisoned, I was just choking! I was really scared to death by him!
"Serve the rice quickly, serve the rice quickly!" Everyone cheered and gathered around the big pot with bowls in hand.
"Come on, make way, make way!" Maotu came forward with two big basins.
Everyone laughed and said, "Brother Rabbit, we use bowls to eat, and you use a basin to eat?"
Utu snorted.
The people who teased her were a bit sarcastic.
Everyone knew that she belonged to Uncle Wen, and their lives were saved by him. It was also thanks to him that they dared to eat with confidence, so no one competed with Mao Tu.
Let her serve first.
Maotu filled a bowl of vegetables and a bowl of soup, and left alone, carrying two large bowls of food.
Everyone thought she was going to take her away and the family would eat in the tent.
Unexpectedly, Mao Tu sent the two bowls of food to the tents of the women who were captured to offer sacrifices to heaven.
Everyone fell silent for a moment.
The joyful atmosphere beside the stove was suddenly enveloped by an indescribable atmosphere.
"Alas, although our lives are hard, we are still alive... They are so young, but they have to sacrifice their lives to heaven... They are all pitiful people..."
One of the soldiers sighed quietly.
Everyone lowered their heads and remained silent.
One of the cooks remembered someone. He quietly wiped away his tears and took out his cake.
"Here you go, eat it in the vegetable soup. You'll be even more hungry." He gave his pancake to the group of women.
The women didn't dare to take it at first and looked at the cook in horror.
Maotu laughed at the side and said, "Take it and eat! Life is short. If you are still alive today and can still eat, just be content and happy! Tomorrow... in this world, who cares about tomorrow? Eat, eat. !”
"Yes, we are a group of people who died once yesterday! We are still alive today. This life is really saved! Let's have a full meal together!" The cook turned his back again and wiped his face. Tears, he said with a smile.
The women swallowed their saliva.
They were like frightened rabbits at first, but the atmosphere in the camp was different today.
We all "died" together last night, and today we seem to have become a family sharing weal and woe.
They gradually let go of their courage and carried the basins outside the tent. Some were holding broken bowls, while others were holding the pots, eating big mouthfuls of rice.
Some people cried while eating, "It seems that I have never had such a delicious meal in my life! Woohoo..."
When the girl cried, the soldiers here also shed tears.
This sad atmosphere is really a bit depressing.
Seeing this, Yu'er raised the soup bowl as if she were holding a bowl of wine, "Come, let's respect Brother Ma! Follow Brother Ma, you will live and eat!"
His young, passionate voice immediately diluted the slight sentimentality.
When everyone heard this, they immediately raised the bowls in their hands and shouted in unison, "Respect Brother Ma! Respect Brother Ma!"
Ma Qiancheng was shocked, and she raised her bowl to everyone expressionlessly.
She took a big sip of the soup... Well, it was mellow and sweet! It’s better than fine wine!
Not to mention the little girl who cried because of the fragrance, she... had never tasted such a sweet soup in her life!
Ma Qiancheng put down the bowl and immediately looked at Yu'er.
Yu'er winked at her and raised the bowl.
Ma Qiancheng raised the corners of her mouth involuntarily... Well, she really didn't want to smile, but for some reason, the corners of her mouth were so light that she always wanted to turn up.
Adjutant Li was holding a big bowl and eating while approaching Ma Qiancheng.
He stared at Wen Jin's family from a distance and said in a low voice, "We are really lucky! With such a few people, not only can we all save our lives, but we will probably not have to worry about food and drink all the way from now on!"
"These people are quite capable... With them here, I believe we will soon have enough people to do business!"
Ma Qiancheng glanced sideways at Adjutant Li.
She nodded slightly and murmured, "Yes... I'll be ready for the assignment soon!"
She also looked at Wen Jin, Wen Yu and the others... Oh no, the corners of her mouth wanted to turn up again...
…
Due to the delay in breakfast, it was already three o'clock in the morning when they broke camp and set off.
But I don’t know whether it was because today’s meal was particularly filling, or because everyone was in a good mood... After breaking camp, we packed up our things extremely quickly.
It usually takes half an hour and an hour to finish the work, but today in less than half an hour, everyone was already ready to go!
Ma Qiancheng cleared his throat, bathed in the dazzling sunshine, and shouted in the direction he wanted, "Let's set off——"
Everyone strode onto the road.
Today, everyone’s pace is obviously faster than in the past.
The dozen or so girls used to walk very slowly, crying as they walked. Everyone was upset when they heard that.
But today, the sun came out in the west.
Not only did they not cry, they were still talking and laughing.
There was also a girl who, because she had the "honor" of being held by Yue'er, happily sang nursery rhymes from her hometown.
This tune and these words sounded familiar to some of the soldiers... It seemed like they had heard my mother-in-law sing it when I was a child.
Some soldiers also started singing along.
This team, which was usually full of hostility and conflicts, today looked like people going on an outing, laughing and singing.
"Well, I didn't see it...but it's delicious!"
"Dad Wen, what kind of fruit is this? Why can we not see it, but we can eat it?"
"Dad Wen, can you give me another one?"
"It's so sweet. It relieves cough and promotes body fluids. It seems to also replenish your physical strength!"
Wen Jin gave these little girls the red mountain berries in his pocket as snacks.
These little girls don't look very old, and the oldest ones are only as old as Yu'er.
The youngest one doesn't look as tall as Yue'er.
They were scared at first, but they saw that Yue'er was cheerful and laughing. She was about the same age as the youngest among them, and she could chat well with people of the same age.
Moreover, Yue'er looks extremely good-looking, fair and beautiful, and her eyes are very smart, like fine gemstones, beautiful and clear. But for such a pretty little girl, she doesn't have a bad temper.
She didn't put on airs or be squeamish. When everyone saw her calling Wen Jin "Dad", they all followed her and called Wen Jin "Daddy Wen".
Wen Jin: "..."
Okay, daddy will be daddy.
Xiao Yuchen secretly had fun several times looking at Wen Jin's unspeakable expression!
With the red mountain fruit to replenish their physical strength, these girls who had suffered a lot did not complain or feel tired along the way. Instead, they ran, jumped, talked and laughed.
The speed of the entire team was several times faster than before.
"Eh? Isn't that right?"
Adjutant Li suddenly frowned and stopped. He looked around, then looked up at the sky, "Wrong, wrong! Stop!"
Everyone who was on their way was stunned when they heard this and looked at Adjutant Li.
"Boss! It's wrong!"
Adjutant Li ran quickly towards Ma Qiancheng.
Ma Qiancheng knew that he had already discovered it!
