Shen Ningsi was originally a doctor from the agricultural research institute, not only proficient in farming but also skilled in medicine. She was a prominent rising star in Huaguo!
Who knew ...
Sanyazi suddenly felt unwell, and Gu Xiuwen beside him was also dumbfounded.
He experienced a lot during this conscription. Not only did he find out his own life experience, he also saw mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and thousands of soldiers. Along the way, he not only grew a beard, but also his temperament changed a lot.
I guess everyone thought he was dead, and now that he has become a general, no one would associate him with Gu Hong in the village.
This is perfect, he originally intended to hide his identity, so it would make it easier for him to act.
"No need to thank me." Gu Hong spoke in a deep voice, deliberately showing Shen Ningsi his handsome and dashing face that was popular among thousands of girls.
Shen Ningsi couldn’t help but be stunned.
She recognized him! Gu Hong was secretly delighted and waited for her to pounce.
The next moment, Shen Ningsi bowed his head and saluted, trying to ignore the fierce face of the bearded man, and said respectfully: "General, your kindness is great, and I will never forget it."
“…”
Gu Hong's face darkened. He retracted the spear in his hand and looked down at the woman in white not far away. His eyes were dim and he spoke every word clearly.
"Say that again."
Shen Ning thought: “…”
She subconsciously touched her face. Was there something dirty on her face? The military officer looked as if he wanted to gouge her alive.
"Military Master..."
"Okay." Gu Hong interrupted her in time.
If he let this woman continue talking, Gu Hong was afraid that he would not be able to control himself and would kill her on the spot.
"Master, although we are safe now, and logically no matter how you fight with the people of Black Cloud Village, it has nothing to do with me, but I still want to persuade you not to go to war with Black Cloud Village."
Unable to figure out what the man opposite was thinking, Shen Ningsi simply stated his purpose directly.
"There are still ordinary people who have come to Black Cloud Village to seek refuge. They haven't even enjoyed the food and fodder that Black Cloud Village robbed. Today's lunch still has no oil or water, and they can only barely fill their stomachs. I beg you to show mercy, General, and let these ordinary people have a chance to live."
"Leave here first, you don't have to worry about these things." Gu Hong frowned and glanced behind Shen Ningsi.
"Where did you get these two little babies? This is not the place for them to stay."
Gu Hong casually hooked their cheeks with his fingers.
Shen Ningsi tightened the cloth around her waist. She looked back at the child, and a hint of tenderness involuntarily flowed into her eyes.
"These are my children. If I hadn't had to, I wouldn't want them in such a dangerous place. But there are so many innocent people in Black Cloud Village. I can't leave."
For the first time, Gu Hong experienced what it felt like to be stiff all over. His fingers, which were casually kneading the baby's face, stopped moving.
San Yazi even leaned over and said, "Master, your fingers are rough, so don't touch them directly like this."
Gu Hong really put down his hand and stared at the baby with two black eyes.
"Your child?"
“Yes.” Shen Ningsi replied.
Gu Hong was stunned for a few seconds, then suddenly laughed out loud, "It really paid off that I fought so hard outside to kill the enemy!"
Shen Ningsi looked at the man who suddenly became excited and felt a little confused. What was wrong with getting excited when hearing about giving birth?
"That's true. If it weren't for the Gu family army defending our country, I'm afraid we ordinary people wouldn't have the stable life we have." Shen Ningsi blinked and agreed.
"When was she born and what was her name?"
“…”
"Why don't you speak?" Gu Hong was dissatisfied.
I couldn't help but look at him several times, Shen Ning thought: "He was born just a few days ago."
As for the name... it's okay for boys, but a girl's maiden name must not be told to others.
Gu Hong didn't notice that Shen Ningsi was holding back. He couldn't hide his excitement, and his gaze stayed on Shen Ningsi's belly for a long time. It was not until Shen Ningsi's face stiffened and he took a few steps back that Gu Hong came to his senses.
"Ahem!" Gu Hong covered up, "Since the Gu family has volunteered to persuade the villagers, then let them hold off for now. As for you..."
Gu Hong's eyes fell on the two little kids behind Shen Ningsi. His fierce expression and gentle eyes only made people feel that Gu Hong was even more difficult to understand.
Shen Ningsi immediately took another step back.
"Let's send these children back first. There's still trouble in Black Cloud Village." Gu Hong patted Gu Xiuwen's head gently, "Take good care of them."
Shen Ningsi felt a little strange. The attitude of the military officer in front of him was a little too close to Xiu Wen.
There was no time to pursue the matter. Shen Ning thought, "Thank you for your kindness, General, but I am worried about leaving these children with other people."
"What are you worried about? If anyone dares to neglect these kids, I'll chop them into pieces!"
Shen Ningsi was skeptical about this. Sanyazi was Gu Hong's brother, and the other members of the Gu family army had no relationship with Gu Hong, so how could they take good care of them?
But the Black Cloud Village was full of swords and sabers, and Shen Ningsi didn't dare to guarantee that he could really protect them.
Shen Ningsi was in a dilemma for a moment.
San Yazi also hurriedly said, "Don't worry, sister-in-law. I will definitely leave the children with the most reliable people. After the matter of Black Cloud Village is settled, you will definitely go home to see them safe and sound."
In the end, Shen Ningsi handed An An Kang Kang over to San Yazi, while Yun'er was led by Xiu Wen.
Seeing the big, rough guy with his eyes wide open like copper bells and his arms trembling as he held An An Kang Kang, Shen Ningsi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although his posture was wrong, at least his cautious attitude made Shen Ningsi believe that Sanyazi would not hand An An Kang Kang over to unreliable people.
Ana Shen stayed where she was and watched the group leave.
Gu Hong raised his whip and pulled Gu Xiuwen to his side.
He sneered, "Tell Wu'er clearly that no one can recognize me. I want to see if this woman really can't remember me!"
In order to prevent Gu Xiuwu from calling him dad the moment he saw him, Gu Hong deliberately took Gu Xiuwen and walked in front.
Gu Hong rode wildly, and he never slowed down even on the road with countless turns. The wind whistled in Gu Xiuwen's ears, and even his hair was blown up.
Gu Xiuwen whispered, "Dad, if you don't want Mom to forget you, just tell her who you are. She won't understand all those bewildering words."
"She doesn't understand clichés, and I don't want to be clichéd! But I want to find out if this woman has a conscience!"
Shen Ningsi, who was said to be heartless, watched the group of people meet up with the large force outside the Black Cloud Village, and then walked straight to the gathering place of the Black Cloud Village.
The people in Heiyun Village stared at the black-clad cavalry standing outside the village with somewhat ugly expressions.
"Where did these soldiers come from? Why do they look different from the previous soldiers?"
Ana Shen glanced at the scene outside.
I don’t know how those generals and Lord Fan avoided everyone’s sight. They were talking to her just now, but now they are standing at the front of the team.
Fan Xing looked like a weak scholar, not enough to alert everyone, but the soldier sitting on the horse in a nonchalant manner, with broad shoulders and disdainful eyes, the words "not easy to mess with" were almost written on his face.
