Chapter 75: If you compare yourself with others, you will be thrown away!
The guards decide among themselves how to allocate the rotation, who will sleep in the tent first and who will sleep in the hot bag.
Originally, after everyone knew the miraculous uses of sleeping bags, they were afraid to enjoy this high-quality delicacy.
Before Xie Yuchuan entered the house, he said, "This is a special gift from the family god. Don't worry."
Everyone finally relaxed.
Xie Wuying stood by and watched them discuss with envy.
He had never been so envious of being a servant...
Xie Yuchuan had already reached the gate. Seeing that Xie Wuying had not followed him, he gathered around the group of guards and discussed with them animatedly, as if if he talked more, he could sleep with them outside.
"Hezhi! Go inside and sleep." Xie Yuchuan called him.
"Here I come! Sixth Brother!"
Xie Wuying agreed readily, staring at the tent without moving his feet. Seeing Xie Changan zipping up a little, he hurriedly advised, "Pull gently, and you can get up!"
Seeing this, Xie Yuchuan shook his head helplessly and turned to go into the house.
"Sixth brother, here's some hot water for you. I just warmed it up by the brazier."
Seeing Xie Yuchuan coming in, Xie Wenjie handed him the warm water in his hand and said, "Don't forget to take your medicine."
Xie Yuchuan nodded, took the warm water, and just sat down to get the medicine.
Xie Wenjie said, "Why hasn't Hezhi come in yet?"
Just as Xie Yuchuan was about to speak, Xie Jiewen said, "Sixth brother, take a rest. I'll go out and call him!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Wenjie disappeared.
After a while, indistinct whispers could be heard from outside.
The old housekeeper Xie Lin, who was lying nearby, got up from the ground and came over, saying, "This old servant will serve you."
Xie Yuchuan waved his hand and said, "Uncle Xie, please rest early. It's okay."
It was late at night, and everyone around was resting. Talking too much would easily disturb others, so Xie Lin whispered, "If you feel uncomfortable somewhere, please tell me, don't force yourself."
Xie Yuchuan nodded.
Xie Lin continued to lie down. Xie Yuchuan sniffed lightly and found that the house god did not come in.
Probably still out there, he thought.
Tu Huan was indeed still outside, but because she was wearing the precious clothes, she didn't feel the cold. The biting cold wind of early winter turned around and dissipated around her. She walked outside and felt that the feeling was no different from walking under the scorching sun in summer.
So I was very interested to watch seven or eight people gathered outside and talked about things in surprise. It was quite interesting.
Without the presence of the oppressive Major General Xie Yuchuan, the others felt less restrained. As for Xie Wuying and Xie Wenjie, two distant relatives who had come to Beijing to stay at the palace, the Xie family guards showed more care and concern than fear.
One is a scholar and the other is a military officer. They had planned to take the exam next spring, but now all plans have been ruined.
It was late at night and no one could sleep. Who could have such a magical thing and still sleep?
Only the young general in their family had survived the severe torture in the imperial prison and remained calm and composed.
Everyone was quietly studying the functions of the tents and sleeping bags, especially the magical zippers on them, which worked every time they tried them and they had a lot of fun.
"Such a small thing is so exquisitely crafted." Xie Wenjie was amazed.
He was as curious as a cat scratching in the house just now, and just made an excuse to urge Xie Wuying to go back to the house, but he didn't expect to be shocked by what was outside as soon as he came out.
Xie Wuying waved at him, "Huaizhang, come quickly."
Before long, he felt the same as Xie Wuying.
I envy them so much.
Several guards politely gave way to the two men, who waved their hands repeatedly, "The family god specially gave it to you. As Sixth Brother said, there is no need to worry. We have never seen it before, so we came to open our eyes."
Yeah, who has seen this kind of thing?
After staying outside for a while, the two went back to the house together to give them some time to rest.
As Xie Wuying opened the door and entered the house, he caught a glimpse of several guards from the Chai family not far away. He whispered to Xie Wenjie beside him, "Aren't the people from the Chai family crying with envy?"
Xie Wenjie couldn't help laughing.
I thought to myself, it was obviously he who was envious.
With the outdoor weapons that are windproof, warm and cold-resistant, the Xie family guards who stayed outside felt warm in their hearts and full of hope for the future.
They were feeling comfortable here, while the four guards of the Chai family, who were huddled in the corner of the wall not far away, looked at the Xie family with envy.
"Why are the things the Xie family brought out so strange?"
"A broken ship still has three thousand nails. A family of a hundred years old, with a very rich family background, still has so many things even in exile."
"It looks like it's warm."
"Alright, guys. The Marquis and the Prince have prepared thick clothes and charcoal fires for us to keep warm. Let's make do for the night."
The leading guard inside said.
They were all loyal to their master, so the others didn't say anything. It was just because the conditions were still good when Duke Dong Bo was exiled. At the beginning, they covered themselves with thick clothes and gathered around the charcoal fire to keep warm, which was much better than the guards of the Xie family opposite who had to rely on their bodies to withstand the wind. They couldn't help but sympathize with them.
Now, looking at the people opposite me, either lying in bags or hiding in tents, I feel that they are warm.
Then I looked at my face, which was still being blown by the cold wind...
Xie Yuchuan took the medicine and lay down to rest with his arms behind his head.
Above his head were broken beams, covered with spider webs because the house was deserted. Having adapted to the darkness of the night, Xie Yuchuan could occasionally see spiders as big as fingernails hanging on the webs and crawling around.
He was tired after a day, but he had no desire to sleep.
His mind was still thinking about the tent that had been quickly erected outside. The guards saw that he was in command, but in fact, he was also very curious about the tent.
Especially the poles used to hang the tent.
He touched the support pole, which was delicate and flexible. At first he thought it was a wooden pole, but it was not a wooden pole at all. It was light, bendable, and could be extended or shortened. It was very suitable for walking and carrying after disassembly and assembly.
This thing is extremely suitable for marching.
After sighing, Xie Yuchuan made up his mind.
Tu Huan didn't know what he was thinking. If she knew, she would immediately go online and download a video of a military tent for him to open his eyes.
What is a civilian holiday tent?
Let you see what a tent with top-level concealment and defense functions looks like.
By midnight, Tu Huan also felt sleepy.
She didn't want to waste energy flying back, so she just asked the system to send her home in one second.
After washing, showering, and taking care of your skin, I snuggled into the soft and warm bed, turned off the lights, and went to sleep.
As winter sets in, the sun rises later. The cockcrows earlier, urging the sun to rise. In summer and autumn, the sun would be slightly bright at the beginning of the morning hour, but lately, it always comes later.
In the early morning, the sky was slightly bright, but the dark night had not yet dissipated. The sky turned from black to deep blue, and everything was quiet.
The forest was filled with fog, and faintly, the long echo of the howling of wild beasts could be heard.
The villagers of Gaojia Village had already started to get up at this time as per their usual habits, and soon white smoke rose from the chimneys of every household.
The people in Gaojia Village get up early to light the fire and cook.
A sleeping village woke up amid the crowing of chickens and barking of dogs.
In the exile camp, since the officials were still resting in the village, everyone took the opportunity to sleep a little longer.
Xie Yuchuan goes to bed late and wakes up early.
It was rare that tonight was not as strict as the previous time when he was guarded on the road, so he took advantage of the fact that his family was asleep, picked up the shackles in his hands, walked out of the house quietly, and went for a walk outside to stretch his muscles.
As soon as he came out, he saw that the guards outside had also woken up.
"General?"
"You guys continue to sleep, I'll go walk around the door."
Xie Yuchuan walked out of the door. The two yamen runners guarding outside opened their eyes, looked at him, and then closed them again.
"Don't go too far and cause us trouble."
With the Xie family members in the house, Xie Yuchuan would not dare to escape. He accepted the silver tribute from the Chai family. The two officials were very kind today.
