Huo Jingxuan was happy. He liked soldiers, especially those who were so self-conscious.
With a wave of his hand, he said, "Collect, collect all."
When Jiang Haoyu saw that all his brothers had accepted it, he quickly jumped out and pointed at himself.
“They all accepted it, what about me?
I also want to join the army and fight the enemy on the battlefield."
Before Huo Jingxuan could say anything, Leng Yue rejected him directly.
"You can't do that. You are the only son in the family. We don't want you. Go back and take care of your father in his old age!"
Then he pointed at the group of brothers behind him and said, "It's the same with you. If you are the only son in your family and don't have other brothers, or if your family is burdened with heavy responsibilities and you only have a mother or a sister left, then you can't go either.
By the way, let me add one more thing: those who are under 18 years old are not allowed.
Stand up voluntarily, take your travel expenses and dry food and go home quickly, don't let me catch you out."
As it turned out, none of them was the only son in their family and their ages were all of the same, but no one stood up.
Jiang Haoyu looked at it and became even more unhappy. He turned around and complained to his father Jiang Shouzheng: "Dad, why don't you and my mother have more children? Then I can also join the army."
Jiang Shouzheng was choked for a moment, then immediately retorted, "That's all your fault, your head is too big, your mother had a difficult labor when she gave birth to you, she suffered so much, and in the end she had a heavy hemorrhage, she barely managed to save her life, and she can't give birth again after that.
I am so scared that I am almost dying. Not to mention that she cannot give birth, even if she can, I will never let her do it."
Hearing this, Huo Jingxuan turned around and stared at Leng Yue's belly, "Wife, is giving birth so dangerous?
Then don’t have any more children. We don’t want any more children. Having you is enough for me.
If you have a difficult birth and don’t bleed, I won’t live either.”
He was beaten up by Leng Yue immediately, "Hurry up and say bah, bah, are you stupid? Why do you say anything out loud? It's so unlucky.
Have you forgotten what I do? I am a doctor. Can I die just because I gave birth to a child?
Look again, there are so many people outside now. Can't you wait until we're alone behind the door before talking?
You've made a fool of yourself, right? I wonder how you'll save face in the future."
After Leng Yue said this, Huo Jingxuan quickly cursed and didn't forget to hit his own mouth.
"My stinky mouth, I didn't say anything just now!"
Then he turned around suddenly and saw that everyone was staring at him.
Huo Jingxuan thought to himself, "It's embarrassing again."
The group, led by Huo Jingkang, quickly shook their heads and said, "It's okay, we're used to it.
You two continue, just pretend we don't exist."
The brothers were even happier now, and they started discussing in groups of three or four, "It turns out that the general is also a henpecked man, just like my father."
As soon as they started talking, Leng Yue realized that most of them had accents from Sichuan and Hubei. It turns out that being a henpecked person is also a hereditary habit!
Then she was curious, "How did you get tricked into coming all the way here?"
The reasons are varied, some were deceived by fake recruitment information.
Some were simply captured as conscripts and then sold here.
Others were deceived by high-paying job offers.
What's worse, I went out to the market and somehow I became unconscious. When I woke up I was already here.
Leng Yue sighed, "Well, from ancient times to the present, the methods used by scammers are almost the same, they are just a different soup but the medicine remains the same.
Since you are not going back, you should at least send a letter home to let your family know that you are safe!
How about this, the housekeeper will help them write letters home, and by the way, send the travel expenses back as resettlement expenses, so that the family can feel at ease. "
When the people below heard that they were given money right away, they became even more excited and said, "We have finally met a good person this time. We are given money right away."
He was about to kneel down and kowtow to Leng Yue and Huo Jingxuan to express his gratitude, but was stopped by the two of them.
"We don't care about that. You should go to the housekeeper and write a letter home. Then get some clothes and take a bath. If you have any injuries, apply medicine. In the evening, we will make dumplings and stew meat to welcome you."
"Oh my god! I never had dumplings or stewed meat during Chinese New Year at home. I have forgotten what they taste like.
Now when I hear it, I can’t help but drool.”
Wu Erniu's useless appearance successfully made everyone laugh, but no one should laugh at anyone else, as everyone is the same as him.
Everyone is greedy, who doesn’t want to eat delicious food?
Under the leadership of An Shi, all the women in the family joined in and helped make dumplings.
Leng Yue and Huo Jingxuan led the remaining secret guards and the Black Feather Army to start reorganizing the pharmacies throughout the county.
Her nose is better than a dog's. She can tell whether a store sells fake medicine just by smelling it.
The shopkeeper, the doctor and the pharmacist were all arrested and hung at the vegetable market.
Then they beat drums and gongs to attract all the people to watch.
Each person was then made to drink a large bowl of coptis root water and then whipped with a whip dipped in chili water.
He smoked and cursed, "You are so dirty and heartless selling fake medicine. You are simply taking human life lightly. Have you lost your conscience?
And you who helped Zhou commit atrocities are just as hateful as them, and you deserve to be beaten to death."
Afterwards, Leng Yue stared at the fake medicinal materials piled up on the ground in a trance. "In ancient times, Lin Zexu destroyed opium in Humen. Today, I will follow his example and burn fake medicine in Caishikou."
The people started applauding when they saw the secret guards whipping those who sold fake medicine. When they heard Leng Yue say that he wanted to burn all the fake medicine, they praised him even more and their hands were swollen from clapping.
There were constant cheers and some people who had been severely harmed by fake drugs or whose family members had died because of fake drugs could no longer bear it and jumped out to help.
Later, more and more people stood up to denounce those who sold fake drugs and help Leng Yue destroy the fake drugs.
The torches were thrown at the fake medicinal materials, and suddenly flames shot up into the sky and thick smoke billowed.
Another wave of cheers came, just as those doctors and pharmacists who sold fake medicine and assisted the evildoers could no longer withstand the beating and fainted.
Huo Jingxuan gave the order directly, "Throw these beasts directly into the fire and let them and their fake medicine die together!"
And use this as a warning to others: this is the fate of selling fake medicines!
While cleaning up and rectifying the fake medicine market, the work of making statues for the dog county magistrate and that old bastard Heshen was also completed.
Nursery rhymes about traitors and traitors began to spread in teahouses and on the streets.
Before dinner in the evening, Huo Jingxuan called Jiang Shouzheng to the study and talked to him in detail about escorting food and providing relief to the victims.
Unexpectedly, he directly refused because he also wanted to take his family and his disciples to follow Huo Jingxuan.
"General Huo, you don't know that after you came back today, all my subordinates were in a state of panic.
All of them will follow you into battle to kill the enemy and serve the country."
