Shulan got off the carriage with He Fengmian's help.
After arranging for everyone to set up camp, Liu Moyang leisurely walked over and greeted them with a smile: "Madam."
Shu Lan, who stood next to He Fengmian, appeared quite petite, and returned the smile: "Hello, Commander Liu."
Thinking that these two had really given him a lot of face, it seemed that after tomorrow, the whole military camp would know that the General's wife was favored.
Indeed, the busy soldiers, though their hands didn't stop working, all had their eyes and ears turned towards this side, looking like they were watching a melon seed.
Thinking to himself, wasn't it said that although the General's wife wasn't as hateful as the Xie family, she was still not favored?
But look at them now, their general personally went to pick them up, and his wife was chatting and laughing with Commandant Liu. It's obvious that they usually have a good relationship.
Who was it that blind fool said the general and his wife had a bad relationship?
Looking over there... tsk tsk tsk, I must say, the lady and their general are quite a good match.
The objective has been achieved.
He Fengmian then handed his nephew over to Shimo, preparing to lead a team to hunt in the mountains.
Shulan looked at the vast and dense mountain forest, which seemed to stretch to the sky, and there was a river behind their camp.
The river water is crystal clear, rushing through the rocks and reflecting the sunlight overhead, giving the passage of time a sense of tranquility.
Remembering Liu Moyang's instructions, that wild beasts and venomous snakes often roam this area, they were told to be careful.
He quickly approached the bearded man and asked, "General, I'd like to see the herbs. May I come with you?"
He Fengmian frowned, about to say that it was safer to stay at the foot of the mountain, when Liu Moyang interrupted, "Of course there's no problem, the General certainly won't object."
He Fengmian: "..."
Who says the general doesn't object?
Shulan smiled brightly and said, "Thank you, General. I'll have to trouble you then."
Shimo rested at the foot of the mountain with Pangzai in her arms, while Shulan carried a basket she had brought with her and followed He Fengmian into the mountain with Xiaocui.
It's almost noon; they won't have gone too far.
We plan to hunt some wild game for lunch first, and then go to a deeper area in the afternoon.
He Fengmian led fifty people into the mountains, divided into groups of ten, and they acted separately.
Shulan naturally followed behind him, with Xiao Cui close by beside her.
This girl was clearly terrified, yet she wanted to see how they hunted; she was the perfect example of someone who was both incompetent and playful.
Seeing that the little girl was scared, Shulan took her hand and quickly sprinkled some insect repellent powder on her body.
His eyes then looked around to see if there were any herbs.
The climate here is suitable for the growth of many herbs, and it is a place that very few people come to, so it seems that there are quite a few ginseng and lingzhi mushrooms here.
Suddenly, she felt the person in front of her stop, but luckily she stopped in time and didn't bump into them.
Then the bearded man drew his bow, and the arrow in his hand flew out of the bowstring with a whooshing sound.
Following the direction of the arrow, they saw that the arrowhead had already struck a plump pheasant.
Shulan couldn't help but praise, "Excellent archery!"
Liu Moyang had to make arrangements and didn't come along, but a soldier who had also returned to the capital with him couldn't help but boldly explain, "The General is the best archer in our entire camp."
Shulan gave a thumbs up and sincerely praised, "Handsome!"
He couldn't help but look at her again. Even though she had put away her bow and arrows, she was just standing there in a leisurely manner, but she was tall and slender with a beautiful and smooth figure. Her noble air was mixed with a sharp and murderous aura like a sword being drawn from its sheath.
This chilling and fierce aura can only be emanated from the very bones of someone who has experienced countless wars and bloodshed.
Someone noticed the lady secretly glancing at him and assumed she admired the general, so they couldn't help but chime in, "That's right."
Their general is the most handsome, both handsome and brave.
Shulan's praise immediately lightened the tense atmosphere.
He Fengmian's profile was cold and aloof, but he did not stop everyone from chatting quietly.
They chatted, but their eyesight was sharp, and they all took out their bows and arrows to shoot.
Before long, there was a rabbit and two pheasants.
Shulan's eyes searched around and found that there were many natural treasures in the mountains. In one place, she even picked a lot of angelica, saposhnikovia, mulberry and mint leaves, etc.
During this time, He Fengmian shot and killed a roe deer, a deer, and even a wild goat.
Seeing that it was almost time, they returned to camp.
The other four groups also collected a considerable amount of food.
Fatty had been awake for a while, but thankfully Liu Moyang was there, otherwise he might have been howling for a while.
He, who had been happily playing and clucking like a little hen, immediately turned his little bottom around and, heartlessly abandoning his Uncle Moyang, ran towards Shulan with his short legs, calling out, "Mommy~~~"
Upon hearing this, everyone's pupils dilated in shock: Mother???
Upon seeing this, Shulan immediately ran over and said, "Xiaobao, slow down, don't fall."
I heard that this child has been weak since childhood. He not only speaks later than other children his age, but he also walks later. Now he often walks unsteadily and falls on his bottom.
Fortunately, he was not a picky eater from a young age, so we never had to worry about what he ate, and we gradually fattened him up.
Sure enough, as the little guy was running, he accidentally stepped on a pebble and was about to fall when a figure quickly appeared beside him and scooped him up.
Instead of falling, the chubby little boy landed in her familiar arms, giggling, "Susu."
Even the stern-faced general could only helplessly pat his little chubby nephew's bottom.
