Chapter 70 Shacun, the mother and daughter of the Zhao family.

At this moment!

An old man walked slowly towards Zhao and her daughter.

"Grandpa Wu."

"Is there any news about my brother?"

Seeing the old man arriving, Zhao Ying immediately smiled, hurriedly opened the courtyard door, and asked happily.

"Girl Ying is really smart." The old man smiled and praised Zhao Ying, while looking at the uneasy Zhao at the side.

"Li Zheng, how is my Feng'er doing?" Zhao asked anxiously.

It’s been almost ten months.

There has been no news about his son for such a long time. If he is recruited into the army, he may be assigned to the dangerous northern border, or he may be assigned to the border army adjacent to other countries.

All this worries Zhao.

"I asked someone to look for him for a long time. I don't know the specific situation of Zhao Feng, but he seems to have been assigned to the logistics army." Wu Lizheng said.

"Have you been assigned to the logistics army?"

There was a hint of joy on Zhao's face: "That's great. The logistics army is for two years, which means that it will be more than a year at most."

"From the Zhao family, you know very well about the military branches of our Great Qin, right?"

"That's right, the logistics army usually lasts for two years." Wu Lizheng said with a smile.

"mother."

"I just told you that brother will be fine."

"With his small arms and legs, he will definitely not be assigned to the main battle army." Zhao Ying said with a smile.

"How could you say that about your brother?" Mrs. Zhao rolled her eyes at her daughter.

However, after hearing Wu Lizheng's words, the worry on Zhao's face was much lessened.

Zhao was most happy that she was not assigned to the main battle army, because she didn't have to go to the battlefield to fight. Compared with meritorious service and promotion, Zhao wanted her son to return home safely.

"That's what it is."

Zhao Ying stuck out her tongue and muttered.

In front of other people, Zhao Ying is dignified and elegant, but in front of her mother and brother, Zhao Ying is so playful and playful that she has been doted on by her brother since she was a child.

"However, I also found out a piece of news." Wu Lizheng was a little hesitant, not sure whether to say it or not.

"Li Zheng, if you have any questions, just tell me, I understand." Ms. Zhao immediately asked.

"Great Qin has marched eastward to attack Han."

"The logistics army that Zhao Feng belongs to should also be in South Korea." Wu Lizheng said slowly, with a worried look in his eyes.

Hear this.

Zhao trembled slightly, but then calmed down and smiled reluctantly: "It's okay. Feng'er is in the logistics army, not the main battle camp, so he will be fine."

"you're right."

"The duty of the logistics army on the battlefield is to clean up corpses and transport food and baggage, so there is no need to worry too much about Zhao Feng. Moreover, that boy has been smart and full of clever ideas since he was a child, even in a foreign country."

"So just wait for Zhao Feng to come back in a year." Wu Lizheng also said with a comforting tone.

Sand Village.

The population is less than 500 people. It sounds like the village has a large population, but in fact it includes men, women, old and young. After all, China has lived in groups since ancient times and is not too scattered.

The Zhao family also plays a big role in the village. Both mother and daughter are highly skilled in medicine. Villagers in the village come to them for serious or minor illnesses, and it is much cheaper than seeing a doctor in the county. After all, Zhao's mother and daughter don't need much money, they just need some food, as well as grain and oil for daily life.

certainly.

It is not just the villagers in the same village who seek medical treatment from Zhao and her daughter. Because of their superb medical skills, some villagers from neighboring villages did not get good treatment when they went to the county to see a doctor. However, they were easily cured when they came to Zhao and her daughter, so they His medical skills were also spread in the surrounding areas, attracting many outsiders to come for medical treatment.

Therefore, the status of Zhao's mother and daughter is not low in the village, and they receive much attention. Even though the only male in the family, Zhao Feng, has gone to the army, and the mother and daughter do not have much energy to cultivate the cultivated fields, the young people in the village are willing to help, not for other reasons, but because of Zhao and her daughter. Show kindness to the villagers.

"Yes." Mrs. Zhao nodded. Although she was worried in her heart, she was no longer so worried after knowing that her son was assigned to the logistics army.

"Grandpa Wu."

"Don't you get a salary as a soldier?"

"My brother has been in the army for almost ten months, why hasn't his salary been paid out?"

"I see, didn't those who enlisted in the village get their annual salary every season? Why did my brother's salary last so long?" Zhao Ying asked curiously.

"Perhaps this is because of Great Qin's military campaign?"

"To mobilize troops abroad, the entire national strength must be mobilized, and the salary payment must also be delayed. Maybe when the war is over, the salary will be paid out." Wu Lizheng thought for a while and replied with a smile.

"I wonder how much salary my brother has?" Zhao Ying said with great anticipation.

"Girl Ying, don't expect too much."

"Your Grandpa Wu also served in the army before. Although he is not a real warrior in the main battle camp, he is still a county soldier."

"Although the logistics army does not have to go to the battlefield, there is not much danger, and there is no need to worry about life, but in terms of salary and benefits, it is not as good as the elite soldiers, or even the ordinary county soldiers." Wu Lizheng said with a smile.

"ah?"

Zhao Ying was a little disappointed.

Then he asked curiously: "Is the difference between sharp soldiers and logistics soldiers that they go to the battlefield or not?"

"That's not right."

"Ruishi have a title and can get land allocated by the court. Even the salary of a first-class knight can support a wealthy family." Wu Lizheng said with a smile.

"Are those fields in Grandpa Wu's house given by the imperial court?" Zhao Ying asked curiously.

Wu Lizheng stroked his beard and smiled: "Yes, although I was a county soldier, I also had a title, and naturally I had land granted by the court."

"These are the two sides. A warrior fights for the country, fights with military merit, and stands out."

"The logistics army cleans up the battlefield. It has fewer opportunities and its status is not as good as the real warriors."

Hear the words.

Zhao Ying nodded in understanding.

This was the first time she knew so much.

"Compared to getting ahead and fighting in the military, I still hope that my brother can come back safely." Zhao Ying said with a smile.

"Ha ha."

"For you mother and daughter, I think so. After all, you have a skill and medical skills can support the whole family. But for many people who have no skill and a heavy burden on the family, the only way is to become a warrior and have the salary to support the family. Keep the whole family alive.”

"alright."

"It's useless for me to say so much."

"Anyway, your boy Zhao Feng will definitely come back in another year."

"As for the annual salary, when the government allocates it, I, as Li Zheng, will assist in disbursing it, so you two don't have to worry." Wu Lizheng said to Zhao and Zhao Ying with a smile.

"Thank you Grandpa Wu for bringing the news about my brother."

"Otherwise, my mother would be really worried." Zhao Ying immediately thanked Wu Lizheng.
