Taishou has been anxious about the famine for several months, and now there is nowhere to say: "Originally, there was not much food, and when the imperial court collected it, it handed over a large sum, and now there is no food, and the yamen will give porridge every three days, but it will not help." ”

Song Xinshu listened, only felt that the world was suffering, thought for a moment and said to Taishou: "I still have some manpower in Jinling City, I will write a letter back now, let them raise some food to come over, as long as they hold on for a while, they can solve their urgent needs." ”

After listening to Song Xinshu's words, Taishou immediately stood up in surprise and said: "Girl, how good is this, it is a chivalrous act for you to transport grain and grass to the front line, how can I trouble you?" ”

Zhou Munan also got up and grabbed Taishou's arm and said, "Taishou, don't salute the shopkeeper Song, you can be regarded as our elder, so you will have to lose your life." ”

Song Xinshu glanced at Zhou Munan reproachfully and said, "Why are you talking so inattentively." ”

Taishou smiled and said: "It's okay, it's okay, the people left here are the old, weak, women and children, and it's best to have food." ”

Song Xinshu wanted to leave some food, but he was very entangled, and he couldn't make up his mind for a while, so he first asked Taishou to bring a pen and paper, wrote a letter and sent it back.

Taishou wanted to keep them in the mansion for one night, but Song Xinshu didn't want to delay for so long, so he asked Taishou to send officers and soldiers to open the way for them.

Taishou was very grateful to them at this time, and now there are not many officials in Taishou's mansion, and all of them accompanied Song Xinshu and his party towards the outside of the town.

There were officers and soldiers with knives guarding the side, and the townspeople did not dare to come forward easily, they heard yesterday that someone had brought a large amount of grain to the town, and they thought that there was hope for this day, but now it seems that there is no hope.

Song Xinshu tried hard to restrain herself from looking outside, she was afraid that she would not be able to help but soften, and when she was about to arrive outside the town, Mei'er suddenly looked outside and exclaimed, covering her mouth in horror.

"What's wrong?" Song Xinshu didn't know what Mei'er saw and was scared like this, and also looked out of the window.

I saw a lot of corpses piled up in the field outside the window, and although they were covered by weeds, they could still be seen to be human corpses.

Song Xinshu only felt frightened, and held Mei'er in his arms, not letting her see such a scene.

Zhou Munan also saw the scene outside the window, and said lightly: "Probably there are too many dead people, does anyone have the strength to dig so many graves, so they have to pile them here first, anyway, it's winter, and the corpses won't rot for a while." ”

"Is the famine here so severe?" Su Xueqing couldn't believe her eyes, such a scene was really shocking.

Song Xinshu gritted his teeth, opened the curtain and said to Wang Quan, who was driving the carriage, "Turn around and go back." ”

"But Madame......"

"Just go back."

Although Wang Quan didn't understand, he couldn't help listening to Song Xinshu's words, so he could only beckon the brothers of the dart bureau to turn around and go back.

They came directly to the door of the Taishou Mansion, Song Xinshu jumped out of the carriage and pushed the door and walked in, the Taishou saw her come in, and said very surprised: "Shopkeeper Song, why are you back?" ”

Song Xinshu walked up to him and made a long story short: "Taishou, it will take a while for the grain from Jinling City to be delivered, I will unload half of the cart of grain and grass for you first, you are also so emergency, I really don't have more, don't be surprised." ”

Taishou listened to her words, and even burst into tears, lowered his head and wiped away his tears with his sleeve.

Song Xinshu saw him like this, and knew that his life was really not good, so he beckoned the dart masters to unload half of the cart of grain and grass, and Taishou said to her excitedly: "Shopkeeper Song, you are the benefactor of the people in the town, I must report to the head at this time, I will definitely do it!" ”

Song Xinshu hurriedly said: "I don't know about this trip to the imperial court, and please keep it a secret for me and don't tell others." ”

Taishou hurriedly nodded and agreed, and after unloading the grain and grass, Song Xinshu was unwilling to stay any longer, so Wang Quan sped up and left the town.

Zhou Munan saw that she looked tired, leaned aside to rest, and said softly: "Originally, when I saw the shopkeeper Song acting resolutely, I thought he was a very hard-hearted person, but I didn't expect to be so kind, how many good things have been done along the way." ”

Song Xinshu saw Su Xueqing falling asleep groggily, and said while looking at the scenery outside the window: "This is not the reason for being hard-hearted and soft-hearted, it's just that I still have the ability to help others, so I should accumulate some good fortune for myself." ”

Along the way, she didn't expect to encounter one thing after another, she originally thought she was strong enough, but now it seems that it is still not enough.

But she is Su Qing's wife and the general's wife, so she must be stronger.

"Shopkeeper Song still believes this?"

"Believe it or not, you have to respect it." After Song Xinshu finished speaking, he didn't want to say anything more, leaned aside and closed his eyes to recuperate.

I don't know when it snowed outside, Song Xin didn't know how long he had been asleep, and when he woke up, he found that the carriage had slowed down.

She opened the curtain and saw that it was already snowy outside, and the heavens and the earth seemed to be connected, Su Xueqing also woke up at this time, looked at the scenery outside the window in a daze and said: "This is the first heavy snow this year, I didn't expect us to catch up on the road." ”

Mei'er leaned on the window curiously and said to Song Xinshu: "Madam, Ruixue Zhaofeng Year, next year will definitely be smooth." ”

Song Xinshu touched her head, smiled and said, "Then I'll borrow your auspicious words." ”

At this time, it suddenly stuck, and the people in the carriage were all jolted, Song Xinshu subconsciously went to support Su Xueqing, she stabilized her body and said, "Xinshu, I'm fine, is there something wrong with the carriage?" ”

At this time, Wang Quan opened the curtain and said, "The snow is too thick, and the carriage is stuck, so let's go down and move first." ”

Su Xueqing was reluctant to move, Mei'er was very happy to see such a big snow, jumped out of the carriage and played in the snow, Song Xinshu looked at her so happy, and felt relaxed in her heart.

The dart masters were all pushing the carriage hard, Zhou Munan was also helping out, Song Xinshu also rolled up his sleeves and was ready to help when he saw this, but Wang Quan hurriedly stopped her: "How can Madam do such rough work, you just watch from the sidelines." ”

After a long while, the handlebars of the carriage were pushed out of the pit, and everyone got into the carriage and continued on their way.

Now that he is getting closer and closer to the front line, Song Xinshu's heart is getting more and more nervous, I don't know what Su Qing is doing now, whether he is good or not, and whether the war is tense.

She had a lot of questions she wanted to ask him, and she couldn't wait to see him immediately, but she had a lot of worries in her heart, and the feelings in her heart were very complicated.

Fortunately, there were no more accidents on the way, they came all the way to the border, the guards here were very strict, and Song Xinshu was stopped before he saw the tent in the camp.

"Who are you and what are you doing here?"

The soldiers of the guard blocked their way, and when they saw that they were nearly twenty people, and there were five or six carriages, they were very vigilant, and the soldiers of the surrounding guards also gathered around them when they saw this.

Song Xinshu stepped forward and said, "You are here to guard General Su Qing?" ”

The soldier was unmoved, and said, "Yes, who is coming?" ”

"I'm Su Qing's wife, I'm here to deliver grain and grass, please go and report it."

The soldiers were even more surprised when they heard that she was here to deliver grain and grass, and when they saw that she was dressed in men's clothes, they thought she was a weak man, and they heard her claim that she was the wife of General Su Qing.

The leading soldier sent someone to report it, and Song Xinshu felt that the smell of the air here was very different from that of Jinling City, and the smell of the earth was even stronger.

Thinking that he would be able to see Su Qing in a while, Song Xinshu felt that his mood was both excited and nervous, and he didn't know how to put his hands and feet.

It's just that he has been tired all the way, and his appearance must be much worse than before, will he feel that he is not good-looking?

Su Xueqing tugged at her sleeve and said, "Xinshu, calm down." ”

Song Xinshu said in surprise: "Do I look nervous? ”

"You've been stepping on the ground on your toes, haven't you noticed?"

Song Xinshu realized that she quickly retracted her toes, she hadn't been so nervous for a long time, she tried her best to calm herself, otherwise Su Qing would laugh at herself when she saw it in a while.

After waiting for a while, the soldier ran back out of breath, with a smile already on his face, and said, "Madam, please come in, General Su Qing is discussing the military with the military, and he will come over in a while." ”

Song Xinshu laughed happily, a group of people followed the soldiers into the barracks, Wang Quan and they had never seen such a place, and they couldn't help but look around curiously.

When they were still some way to the camp, several soldiers stopped the dart masters and rewarded them with silver, and outsiders were not allowed to enter the camp, so they had to go here.

Song Xinshu said to Wang Quan very gratefully: "Thank you all this way, it is not convenient to thank you here, and when I return to Jinling City, I will definitely thank you well." ”

Wang Quan smiled and said, "Shopkeeper Song is serious, this is what we should do." ”

"Say hello to your shopkeeper on my behalf."

"Definitely!" After waiting for the soldiers to unload the food and grass, the dart masters drove the wagon back.

Song Xinshu was taken to a tent, and a soldier said to her: "Madam, you can wait here for the tent where General Su Qing lives at this time." ”

Su Xueqing and Mei'er were arranged in the tent next to her, and Zhou Munan was taken elsewhere, the barracks was no more casual than outside, and she hadn't seen Su Qing yet, so it was better to be cautious in everything.

Song Xinshu walked into the tent, there was only a table and a bed, and a stove for a fire, which looked very simple.

Does he live in such a place on weekdays? Song Xinshu looked around, not letting go of every detail.
