Xu rambled on and on, "If you ask me, you and Sister Zheng should stay here and let the two young generals Gu come back. The war is over anyway, and you don't have to suffer."

  "Don't talk nonsense!"

  Jiang Shian tried to stop them. Although the war was over, there was still post-war reconstruction work to be done. He knew the suffering of the people better than anyone else.

  Xu curled her lips, knowing that she had said the wrong thing, and said nothing.

  Jiang Chuchu hurriedly tried to smooth things over, "Brother, sister-in-law is doing this for our own good~"

  "Yes, yes, these days, it's really all thanks to Sister Xu." Zheng also spoke quickly.

  "By the way, sister-in-law, after I leave, you will have to help keep an eye on the farmland here." Jiang Chuchu whispered in Xu's ear.

  Jiang's mother pretended to be angry: "What are you talking about, kid? You are hiding it from your own mother!"

  Jiang Chuchu quickly trotted forward and hugged her mother's arm, "Is mother jealous?"

  "I don't. You've grown up and have your own ideas. I can't control you anymore."

  Why does this statement reveal resentment?

  "No, no, absolutely not." Jiang Chuchu wanted to swear to the heavens, "I have prepared a gift for mother, and I will have someone send it to her soon."

  "I don't want it."

  "No, this is my daughter's filial piety. Please accept it, mother. Otherwise, I will not be willing to leave you."

  Jiaojiao's sweet voice was as sweet as honey, and it touched Jiang's mother's heart.

  "Look, this child is so smooth-talking." Jiang's mother couldn't help showing off to everyone, causing everyone to laugh.

  The sadness of parting was finally diluted.

  The next morning, Jiang Chuchu and Gu Jingyu, who had just arrived, said goodbye to Jiang's father and mother.

  When a country prospers, the people suffer; when a country perishes, the people suffer.

  Jiang Chuchu sat in the carriage, and the images of the villagers passing by kept flashing in her mind.

  They all looked pale and skinny, even more miserable than the villagers in Qingshi County when she first arrived there.

  While thinking, I suddenly saw Gu Jingyu lifting the car curtain and walking in.

  "What's wrong?"

  Her slightly confused expression made her eyes look brighter and clearer. Gu Jingyu was stunned and reached out to touch her hand.

  Soft and boneless, delicate and tender.

  "The army wants to rest and take a walk." Gu Jingyu was afraid that Jiang Chuchu would feel bored if she sat in the carriage for too long.

  "good."

  She responded softly, holding Gu Jingyu's arm and slowly got out of the car.

  The soldiers were making fire and cooking in an orderly manner. Seeing this, Yiyun hurriedly asked the servants of the Gu family to take out the utensils and prepare food for Jiang Chuchu.

  The meals for the Gu family's servants were taken care of by the army's cooks, but the meals for Jiang Chuchu, Zheng and her daughter Azhu were taken care of by them individually.
