Chapter 133: Arrangement and Integration, Everyone Takes Their Place

Jiang Xiangdong:...Why does this sound so familiar?

And how did he become the 'backup'?

But he certainly won't delay Ah Bing!

He smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mom. I'm very skilled at taking care of the two kids now. Apart from coaxing them to sleep, Ah Bing doesn't need to worry about anything!"

Shen Qing encouraged: "My son is awesome! Look, you are really good at everything you do, and you are also so good at taking care of children. I believe you can do even better."

Jiang Xiang's mouth was almost stretched to the sky after receiving the affirmation, and he assured: "Don't worry, Mom, I can also coax the baby to sleep in the future!"

River Water and Rain Huo Bing: ...

Shen Qing gave the three of them a look, meaning that they should learn from him.

Jiang Shui and the other two nodded quickly.

Mom is so awesome!

After a while, Mr. Jiang came over with a group of more than ten people.

He turned to Huo Bing and asked, "Can you go to the side and talk in more detail?"

Huo Bing stood up hurriedly holding the baby and looked at Shen Qing first.

Shen Qing glanced at Jiang Xiangdong and urged, "Boss, this is your chance to show off. You must seize it!"

As expected, you can't expect the boss to be smart and can only order him to do work.

Jiang Xiangdong immediately jumped up, took the daughter out of Huo Bing's arms, and said with a simple smile: "I'll do it. You and Second Grandpa and the others can go to the side and have a quiet chat for a while. You don't have to worry about it, baby."

Mr. Jiang Er looked at Jiang Xiangdong again and showed an expression of approval.

Others also praised: "Xiangdong is amazing, he can even take care of babies."

"It's mainly because of this kind of perspective. If it were my child, he'd have to cling to me. Not only would I have a quiet chat, but even if I wanted to say a few more words, the child would start crying and blaming you for not taking good care of him!"

"Whose family isn't like that? Xiangdong is really rare, Bing has good taste."

Jiang Xiangdong immediately straightened his chest. Who told him before that men would be looked down upon if they took care of children?

Not only will he not be looked down upon, it is also very practical. At least his wife won't be dragged down or delayed by the baby when she has something to do!

Huo Bing and Mr. Jiang went to discuss business.

Shen Qing started preparing lard and dinner.

They went to the city in the morning to sell soap and brushes, and bought raw materials such as pork lard, fat pork, eggs, etc. Now that time is tight, they did not make lard from the fat pork.

"Xiaoyu, save the pork for our family tonight, and divide the rest equally among each family."

Only by eating well and having enough food can you have the strength to fight the enemy.

"Xiao Shui, chop the pork and wild garlic, add soy sauce and salt and mix well. We'll have big steamed buns with soy sauce for dinner.

Then make a pot of ground spinach and egg drop soup."

Jiang Yujiang Shui immediately did as he was told.

Every family prepared an especially sumptuous dinner.

The meat that I used to eat over five, six, seven or eight days, this time I plan to eat it over two or three days!

Shen Qing sent them meat just to replenish their energy. In the past, they were frugal so that they could have a better life in the future. If they don’t replenish their energy now, they don’t know whether they can live well in the future.

Of course we have to eat. Besides, we can't save food. We have already exchanged so much and earned enough money. When we get to Jincheng, we can use the money to buy food. Eat, eat, eat. The more we eat, the lighter we will be.

Hit the road light!

After having a sumptuous dinner, the people of Qili Village did not rush to make brushes as usual, but started to work according to Huo Bing's instructions.

First, all the brush materials were collected, put on a cart, covered with oilcloth, and then tied up with hemp ropes to prevent blood from splashing in case of fighting.

And everyone has stopped doing it these days and is concentrating on prevention.

I would rather nothing happen and I lose my earnings than be distracted even a little when danger comes!

Secondly, the men formed several square formations, using whatever was most convenient for them, such as swords, hoes, and shovels. Among them were women and girls who were strong and brave enough to wield swords.

They also selected many women and girls with good eyesight and steady hands to practice with repeating crossbows;

In addition, the elderly are responsible for taking care of the children, and the young boys hold a knife in one hand and a torch in the other, responsible for lighting and comforting the younger children.

The original team consisted of 150 to 160 people, with a maximum of 50 to 60 young and middle-aged men. However, after Huo Bing's arrangement and integration, the number of available people actually reached more than 120!

There were only very young children who needed care. Among the elderly people, there were two, Granny Qin and Xu Hongmei. Granny Qin was unwilling to admit her old age and wanted to step forward, but everyone was worried that Xu Hongmei could not take care of everything alone, so they assigned the responsibility to Granny Qin.

Although the first night was unfamiliar, everyone was adapting to their new jobs.

The next day we will depart at normal time.

After a while, Zhao Mingyue, who was at the back, hurried to the front of the team. She didn't say a word until she found Jiang Erye, Shen Qing, and Huo Bing. "There are two people riding donkeys at the back who look suspicious.

As soon as we set off, they caught up. They were riding donkeys, so they should have surpassed us long ago, but now they are still not far behind us!"

Master Jiang said quickly: "This is to explore the way ahead. We have a lot of people in broad daylight. They won't act rashly if they don't have the advantage.

When you go back, just pretend you don't care. Observe closely with the Third Brother and don't show your knife. The more honest and simple you appear, the better."

Once they target someone like this, they won't change their target just because they're on guard. They'll just add other methods, such as drugging, to make the plan more foolproof.

They couldn't alert the enemy and had to be more cautious in secret.

Zhao Mingyue nodded and quickly returned to the back of the team.

After yesterday's training, the people in the team had some vague guesses. Thinking of the instructions, they held on to the big swords hidden on the cart next to them and calmed themselves down.

Don't panic, they have quite a few people in their team!

At night, the team was as lively as usual, collecting firewood, making fire, fetching water and cooking, everyone was busy and happy.

As night fell, the bonfire was lit as usual.

Under the cover of night, everyone took their positions in an orderly manner according to yesterday's arrangement.

A calm night passed.

When they set off in the morning, Zhao Mingyue saw several donkeys following them and the men on the donkeys staring at them like hungry wolves, and he was sure of it!

At noon, Master Jiang looked at the men in the distance who were chewing dry food and occasionally looking up at them. He whispered, "Save enough water for the night. If there's a running water source at our resting place, use it. If not, everyone should save and eat what you have!"

Every household nodded in response.

"Let's walk faster and stop rushing when we find a suitable resting place. We still have a lot of lime. When night falls, we can make a few traps!" Shen Qing whispered.

When they heard about setting a trap, the young men and boys' eyes lit up.

They all came forward and recommended themselves in a low voice: "Choose me, I'm awesome!"

"I can do it too! Climbing trees and diving into water is no problem."
