Chapter 302

Shi Xiaorui thought about it. Who dares to tell the emperor that he thinks the central army and the imperial army he can rely on are not necessarily good-looking empty shells, so he can't expect to fight?

This is not the nature of making a little mistake in the company and resigning at most after the leader admits it. One can't do well. Don't mention your own life. Maybe the whole family will pay for it.

If the emperor gets angry and orders a thorough investigation, he may be like a potato, pulling one at a time and bringing out a string. There must be more than one or two people who are willing to take advantage of military salaries. Which one will admit it?

It is estimated that all of them have a fluke mentality and intend to hold on to the end and never admit it.

What's more, even if the vassal cutting really started, it was inevitable to fight, and there would be more ways to fight.

Even if we are against the rebellious army and defeated, we can find many excuses. Those who have no pay may also be able to report their death in the war and completely settle the matter.

So the only thing to worry about is commander Shen and General Yang, who are in charge of the Imperial Army and the central army. If they lose the battle and don't die on the spot, the outcome will depend on the emperor's will.

But if you hit your Majesty in the face when the emperor was full of confidence, you can imagine what decision the emperor would make when he became angry. In a word, it will never be picked up and let go.

Shi Xiaorui said: "so this is the fundamental reason why this battle may be fought for a long time?"

The old general nodded.

When he finished, he also relaxed a lot. He picked out a peach shaped snack from the snack plate on the table and stuffed it into his mouth. He ate it with relish.

The old general has no family, and some words are not suitable for his subordinates. Therefore, when he encountered some things before, he could only hold them in his stomach, which is very uncomfortable.

After meeting Lu Shao and Shi Xiaorui, the old general seems to have found two man shaped tree holes. If there is anything inconvenient for him to say to outsiders, he can talk to Shi Xiaorui and Lu Shao at will. He doesn't worry that they will leak secrets. When he is in a good mood, his body will gradually improve. After knowing Shi Xiaorui and Lu Shao, The old general's gray hair has been reduced in recent years.

"What kind of dim sum are you? It looks very nice. It tastes good..." the old general said, "is this the filling of soybean cake?"

Shi Xiaorui replied, "yes."

This is a snack that Shi Xiaorui thought of before. This is not a traditional Chinese snack, but a kind of Thai snack. Its name is Luchu. Inside is the filling of soybean cake, which is made into the mini shape of various vegetables and fruits, and then wrapped with a layer of pectin to shape. It's lovely and delicious. Lu Xilan can't finish eating it. Even Lu Ming, who doesn't like dessert, can't help eating a lot. The raw materials are also very cheap. It takes a lot of work to do it. It took a long time for my family to do it last time.

Shi Xiaorui said to the veteran: "if you like it, eat more. It's easy to digest."

The old general was old, and he didn't exclude eating dessert, but after all, he didn't like it very much. After eating a few, he gave up.

"You just bought this house with or without a cellar. Your family has a large population and a lot of food in a winter. It's too eye-catching to put it outside." The old general asked with concern.

Shi Xiaorui and Lu Shao also trusted the old general and told the truth immediately.

"No, we're staying up to dig these days."

The old general was surprised: "do you dig by yourself? How many people? When will it take to dig? "

Shi Xiaorui said: "you don't know the situation of our family. It's just Lu Shao and big brother qu. I'm going to do it. We're going to dig for several days."

The old general said: "I say, you and Lu Shao look at the spirit of the head is a lot different, it is because of this ah."

The old general smacks his lips. He has no good way. At this time, you may not be able to find the yard with cellar. It's better to hire outsiders to dig the cellar than not. After thinking about it, it's better for them to do it by themselves.

The old general himself is a bachelor. He doesn't have a cellar in his own house. He doesn't plan to build it at this time, so he plans to buy grain and put it directly. Can anyone dare to rob the general's house? Anyway, he is not afraid. I don't think anyone is so short-sighted.

The old general suddenly said, "how many people should I find for you? You are absolutely trustworthy. Just pay them the market price. "

Lu Shao asked, "who is it?"

The old general said, "my former soldier. I was disabled when I went to the battlefield and retired after receiving the pension. My life has been a little difficult these years. I send some money and food to them every month. If it's not that I can't live, I won't take it. There's absolutely no problem with your character. At most, you can work a little slower, but it's better than you can do it alone. "

Lu Shao and Shi Xiaorui trusted the old general and agreed immediately. And Shi Xiaorui thinks of the money box under her bed, which is full of confidence. What she can solve with money is nothing! Besides, Shi Xiaorui is willing to help disabled soldiers.

Because he was worried that there would be too many people and the noise would easily disturb his neighbors, Lu Shao discussed with the old general and decided to have eight people first. At the beginning of the evening, that is, 21 o'clock, he would arrive at the middle of the morning, that is, 4 o'clock, and he would work five hours every night until the cellar was dug. If it is completed earlier than the plan, the number of days saved will be doubled.

This agreement, Shi Xiaorui and the veteran general are very satisfied.

Needless to say, Shi Xiaorui can finally find someone to work with. The old general knew that the price of food, vegetables and meat in the capital was rising recently, and the price was rising very suddenly. They could not save much money on hand. They were afraid that they would not find themselves to help them. So he specially introduced the job to them, hoping that they could subsidize them a little.

All that needs to be talked about is in order. The old general and the two man shaped tree cave were in a good mood when he had been saving for several days; By the way, he solved the short-term employment problems of several disabled soldiers and was in a better mood; After chatting, I went to the backyard to watch Lu Xilan's children practice boxing with horse steps. I laughed at her for being like a little monkey standing unsteadily. I teased the little girl until she was hairy and chased him around the yard for two or three times. I was in a good mood.

At noon in Shi Xiaorui's home, I ate a special medicated meal to make up my body and went home happily.

Shi Xiaorui also felt that he had moved away a big stone in his heart. At noon, he fell asleep again.

In the afternoon, when she went to coach Lu Ming to do her homework, Lu Ming looked at her several times.

Shi Xiaorui asked in a good mood: "ming'er, what's the matter? Can't you understand what I just said? "
