Not long after Cheng Jinghao left, it started to rain lightly outside, and it was about to get heavier.

Lin Momo had no intention of eating anymore, so she put away the food. After washing, she sat on the bed and read a book, waiting for Cheng Jinghao.

After thinking for a while, he took out a piece of ginger from the space and boiled some brown sugar ginger water. After a while, Cheng Jinghao came back and drank it to ward off the cold.

In nearby villages, villagers began to harvest highland barley.

Zhao Zhigang found Cheng Jinghao who was working in the fields. When Cheng Jinghao went out just now, he asked him to go to the military area to find everyone in their camp.

"Lao Cheng, I called all the people from our battalion, and the three companies went to these three nearby villages."

"Okay, hurry up and finish harvesting before the heavy rain comes." Cheng Jinghao nodded and kept moving his hands.

"good!"

"Captain Cheng, thank you so much!" The village chief was so excited when he saw the soldiers helping to collect the goods that he didn't know how to express his gratitude.

"Village chief, don't say that. This is what we, the people's soldiers, should do. Let's work quickly first."

"Okay, okay." The village chief did not dare to delay and organized the villagers to speed up.

Cheng Jinghao was harvesting while inspecting the highland barley. In fact, it would be best to harvest the highland barley in a few days, but the rain came too suddenly. If he didn't finish harvesting tonight, he was afraid there would be no harvest.
With the entire battalion of soldiers joining in, the harvesting of the three villages was quickly completed. Cheng Jinghao asked the soldiers to help the villagers collect all the grain into the warehouse, and organized everyone to return to the military area.

As soon as Cheng Jinghao entered the courtyard, Lin Momo heard the noise and ran out immediately.

"How is it? Have you collected all the food?" Lin Momo asked.

"It's been put away." Cheng Jinghao was about to take off his raincoat.

"I made some ginger syrup for you, drink some." Lin Momo went to the kitchen to pour ginger syrup for him.

"Momo." Cheng Jinghao stopped taking off his raincoat, "I want to trouble you with something."

"What's wrong?"

"Give me some brown sugar. My brothers in the camp just went with us to collect it. This is not a task of the military region. I personally asked them to go there. I want to go to the military canteen to cook some ginger syrup for them."

"Okay." Lin Momo nodded, took out a lot of brown sugar and a lot of old ginger.

Lin Momo took off another raincoat and bamboo hat on the wall, "I'll go with you."

"No, Momo, the rain is too heavy." Cheng Jinghao quickly grabbed her.

"Cheng Jinghao, I am a member of the military now, and I also want to do something within my ability." Lin Momo insisted.

There was no way, Cheng Jinghao couldn't defeat her, so he had to take her with him. Before going, he asked Zhao Zhigang to drink a bowl of ginger syrup at their house.

When Zhao Zhigang heard that they were going to the canteen, he put on his raincoat and bamboo hat, asked Li He to take care of the children at home, and followed the couple there.
