Blessed Daughter

"Yes. My nephew said that as long as His Highness approves, the food can be delivered in three days, and then... the transaction will be carried out at the price of previous years."

Although Xu Zhushan was nervous, he could still clearly repeat what Wei Ruo told him.

"So good."

Chu Lan was very satisfied with this time. It took time to mobilize such a large amount of grain, and it was not easy for the nephew of the Xu family to mobilize so much grain so quickly.

Then Chu Lan asked again: "Can I meet other people?"

"Your Highness, you have a noble status. My nephew is just a businessman. You spend time meeting him...he can't afford it. Besides, my nephew is not in the Taizhou mansion now, but some properties are here. Let's meet... ...so...so inconvenient..."

Xu Zhushan was very fortunate that the lady had already told him all the possible conversations before he came, so that he now knew how to answer the Seventh Prince's question.

Otherwise, with his brain and reaction, he could just stand there stupidly.

"It's a pity. I wanted to thank him face to face." Chu Lan said.

"My nephew said...it's his honor to help Xiaoyong and the officers and men of the Anti-Japanese Army, and he dare not take credit for it, dare not."

"Forget it, I won't force it." Chu Lan didn't insist too much.

Then he turned his head and said to Xu Zhengyong: "Xu Bazong, you have contributed a lot this time. Wait for me to report to the Ming court and reward you for your merit."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Xu Zhengyong thanked him.

Xu Zhengyong knew that the best way to live up to sister Ruoer's help was to take advantage of this opportunity to be promoted, make himself stronger and stronger, and become a solid backing for sister Ruoer.

Zheng Shoubei on the side patted Xu Zhengyong's shoulder with a smile, "Xu Bazong, then I will wait for your good news, and invite me to drink then."

"Master Guard, when we defeat the Japanese pirates this time, I will treat you to the best wine!" Xu Zhengyong said.

"Xu Bazong is asking me to drink thyme?" Zheng Shoubei laughed.

"No problem, thyme is thyme! As long as it can defeat those sons of bitches! I invite everyone to drink thyme!" Xu Zhengyong agreed.

Chu Lan also said: "Then I will also wait to drink the thyme that Xu Ba always treats!"

"No problem!" Xu Zhengyong agreed heartily.

After the soldiers in the barracks unloaded sixteen carts of grain, Xu Zhushan left with the empty carts.

The two parties agreed that after three days, Xu Zhushan's nephew would send someone to collect another batch of food.

In the future, we will look at the needs of the barracks, and we will send them if necessary, so as to ensure that there is no shortage of food in the army, the soldiers will not go hungry, and they can fight against Japanese pirates without any worries.

Three days later, Wei Ruo and Xiumei went out in men's clothing and personally delivered food to the military camp.

Along with them are Wei Jinyi and Xiaobei, who are no strangers to Wei Ruo and Xiumei's men's clothing, but Wei Jinyi and Xiaobei are not clear about what they are going to do today.

Wei Jin also just knew that Wei Ruo was going out on errands, so he proposed to go with him.

Wei Ruo agreed, and the four of them went out as before.

After arriving at Younan Farm, Xiaobei couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise when he saw twenty carts of grain, and then asked Xiumei next to him in a low voice: "Miss Xiumei, where are you going to send so much grain?" ah?"

"These grains were sold to the barracks for military rations. Miss will send them there today." Xiumei replied.

"Ah?" Xiao Bei opened his mouth wide in surprise, "Where do these grains come from?"

Xiumei didn't answer, but looked at Wei Ruo, she wasn't sure if she should tell the Second Young Master and Xiao Bei about this matter.

Wei Ruo turned around and explained, "It's mine."

"Miss, do you have so much food?" Xiaobei was even more surprised.

"Are you surprised?" Wei Ruo asked back.

Xiao Bei nodded like a slap in the face: "I know that Missy is very good at growing crops, and can make crops grow on land that could not grow crops before, but I didn't know that Missy, you have so much food! Then...then The Captain's Mansion is now..."

Xiaobei thought that the Wei family was still short of food, and because of this, Madam worried a lot. And the young lady has enough food in her hand to feed the army!

Wei Ruo smiled brightly: "These are my private property, so it doesn't matter if I want to sell them to whomever I like?"

Xiao Bei nodded, it was no problem, but...it was too unexpected.

Xiaobei couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Miss, you are really amazing! If Madam and the others knew that you have so much food, they would probably be so shocked that their jaws would drop!"

Wei Ruo said with a smile: "Then you have to help me keep the secret, I'm afraid that after I startle their jaws off, they should ask me for food, then I have to worry."

Xiaobei nodded heavily: "Miss, don't worry, our young master is on your side and will definitely help you keep the secret!"

Wei Ruo turned around and smiled at Wei Jin: "Second Brother, what do you think?"

"Um."

Wei Ruoming's charming smile caught Wei Jinyi's eyes, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but tinge with a smile.

After loading the carts, Wei Ruo, Wei Jinyi, Xiumei, and Xiaobei rode in front each on a horse, and behind them were people from the farm driving the carts full of grain.

Everyone set off from Younan Farm, talking and laughing along the way, heading east.

After leaving Xianju County, Wei Ruo and his party saw the soldiers sent by the Anti-Japanese Army to meet them.

Military rations are very important, and the military camp attaches great importance to them. In order to ensure the safety of food and grass, the military camp specially sent people to the east gate of Xianju County to meet them.

And the person in charge of the response was none other than Xu Zhengyong.

Seeing Wei Ruo and Xiumei, Xu Zhengyong smiled all over his face, but because of the presence of other people, he could only restrain himself.

What's more, he is wearing a military uniform now, and all the subordinates behind him are his subordinates, so he is much more serious than when he was joking with Wei Ruoxiumei on weekdays.

Seeing Xu Zhengyong's solemn appearance in military uniform, Xiumei couldn't help feeling a little distracted.

Obviously the face is still the same face, but it always feels different everywhere, with a handsome and majestic expression between the brows that are full of heroism.

Looking at it, Xiumei couldn't help but blush a little, and then lowered her head a little.

Xu Zhengyong slowed down and walked parallel with Wei Ruo: "The road ahead will be a bit difficult, if you find it difficult, we will stop and rest. It's still early and there is still time."

The last section of the road is sparsely populated because of its proximity to the battlefield. Moreover, the road is made of ruts, which is very uneven and easy to bump.

Xu Zhengyong knew that Wei Ruo was not proficient at riding a horse, and he was afraid that she would be tired.

"I'm fine, let's rest after the food is delivered." Wei Ruo said.

"That's good," Xu Zhengyong pointed to the narrow path between the two mountains ahead, "Cross that path and you'll be there."

"En." Wei Ruo responded.

Half an hour later, the team entered the narrow path.

Suddenly Wei Jin also frowned: "Stop."

Everyone turned to look at him, Wei Ruo asked, "Second brother, what's wrong?"
