Tan Junyan stepped forward and touched her head, "If you like it, why don't you take it back?"
"Thank you, General Tan."
The second daughter of the Cheng family was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. She turned around with the cloth in her arms and ran quickly into the house.
"You kid..."
Mrs. Cheng wanted to stop it, but it was too late.
"If the kids like it, keep it!"
Tan Junyan turned around and took a bag of apples from a soldier.
He squatted in front of the youngest daughter of the Cheng family and pinched her face lightly.
"Little guy, do you like apples?"
"Wow……"
The little guy is afraid of strangers and started crying.
He hugged his mother's thighs and deliberately avoided Tan Junyan as if he was avoiding the plague god.
Madam Cheng said helplessly, "General Tan is not a bad person, why are you crying?"
Tan Junyan looked a little embarrassed.
He hurriedly took out an apple from his pocket and said, "Don't cry, little sister. Here's an apple for you."
The little guy stopped crying immediately and stared at the apple in Tan Junyan's hand. He wanted to take it, but he didn't dare.
His dilemma made the soldiers laugh.
Cheng Wushuang, the eldest daughter of the Cheng family, stepped forward to take the apple and said, "Thank you, General."
After thanking Tan Junyan, he handed the apple to his younger sister and said, "Take it and go back to the house!"
"Thank you, General."
The little girl followed her elder sister's example and said thank you to Tan Junyan.
Then he turned around and ran away with the apple in his arms.
Its little feet are bare, which makes it look both pitiful and cute.
Tan Junyan looked at him with a mixture of laughter and tears, and handed the bag of apples to Cheng Wushuang.
"These are prepared for you."
“No, no…”
Cheng Wushuang waved his hands quickly, "It's too much, we can't take any more."
"yes!"
Mrs. Cheng agreed.
"We kept the rice and flour, but we didn't keep the fruit."
"In this cannibalistic age, having coarse grains is already a blessing. How can I even dream of eating fruit?"
As Mrs. Cheng spoke, her eyes became red again.
Tan Junyan had no choice but to hand the apple to the soldier and said, "Send it inside."
"Yes." The soldier carried the apple and walked into the dilapidated house.
"General, people are already cannibalizing each other outside, and you're sending us rice, cloth, and fruit. You're so kind to our Cheng family."
"Old Cheng didn't spend his time with you and your daughter in vain."
Mrs. Cheng's tears flowed uncontrollably.
"Cry, cry, cry, just cry."
Cheng Yong scolded dissatisfiedly, "Wushuang, General Tan has no maids by his side, so you will follow her from now on!"
"You must serve General Tan well. If you dare not take good care of the commander, I will not forgive you."
"Ah! No way!" Cheng Wushuang was stunned, staring with her beautiful eyes, looking unbelievable.
Cheng Yong's face turned stern. "Ah, what? It's your honor to serve the coach."
"General Cheng, you can't do that." Tan Junyan quickly expressed her objection.
"She's still a child. How can I let her suffer with me?"
"Coach, you don't have to refuse."
Cheng Yong's tone was very decisive.
"I'm just a cowherd. If your father hadn't taken a fancy to me and drafted me into the army, I wouldn't even be able to get a wife."
"Your father has been constantly promoting me, making me an important general in the Tan family army."
"All my past glory was given by your father."
"Without your father, I wouldn't even have a home, let alone three daughters."
"It's a pity that I don't have a son. If I had one, I would definitely let him join the army."
"I'm old and can't follow you for a few years, but I can let Wushuang serve you."
"Although she is a little girl, she is well-behaved and sensible. Letting her follow you will fulfill one of my wishes."
Upon hearing this, Tan Junyan did not refuse anymore. She turned to look at Cheng Wushuang and asked for her opinion.
Cheng Wushuang bit his lip, a hint of nervousness and hesitation flashed in his eyes.
She looked at her father and then at Tan Junyan.
After thinking for a moment, he leaned forward slightly and said humbly, "Wushuang is willing to obey my father's wishes and will serve the general with all his heart and soul."
Tan Junyan looked at Cheng Wushuang's still somewhat childish face, and her heart was touched.
"I was your age when I took over the Tan family army."
"I won't treat you as a servant. I will train you well."
"With your intelligence and cleverness, you will surely achieve something in time."
"General, you are so kind to me. Cheng Wushuang will definitely live up to your expectations."
Cheng Wushuang bowed again and spoke in a firm tone.
Although she is a girl, she also wants to be like Tan Junyan, leading the troops and bravely fighting on the battlefield.
Besides, following General Tan was my father's wish.
"well……"
Cheng Yong praised him repeatedly, "You must listen to the general and not act recklessly."
Mrs. Cheng's eyes were slightly red. She stepped forward, took Cheng Wushuang's hand, and whispered:
"Being able to follow the general is your chance to make a name for yourself. In the future, you must be sensible and obedient, and don't cause trouble for the general."
"Um."
Cheng Wushuang nodded obediently, "Mom, I understand."
"Sister, you're leaving!"
The second daughter of the Cheng family quickly stepped forward and hugged Cheng Wushuang tightly. Her eyes were red and she couldn't help sobbing.
Tan Junyan looked at this family and felt a lot of emotions in her heart.
Cheng Yong was sincere in his heart, but since he had no son, he had no choice but to entrust his daughter to him.
…
At the same time, the refugees in Lingshui City who were queuing up for porridge were shocked.
"It's actually refined rice porridge. It's unbelievable."
"I've never even seen this kind of fine white rice."
