Bai Yanying knew nothing about wounds. When she applied medicine to Ning Xi'er, she examined it repeatedly and thought it looked like a burn...
However, when asked about her injury, Ning Xi'er hesitated and didn't give any details...
Bai Yanying felt that it wasn't as simple as a burn.
Since it concerned Ning Xi'er's safety, Bai Yanying did not nod or shake her head rashly.
Ning Che gave Bai Yanying a deep look, his lips tightening.
"Alright, big brother, there's still a lot going on outside, waiting for us!"
Ning Xi'er urged.
We finally met, and now we're parting again, driven by a sense of responsibility...
The Shen family did not try to persuade them to stay, but simply told the three of them to be careful.
Just as they were about to leave, the eldest brother, Shen Zhong, suddenly spoke up.
He tentatively called out to Ning Che's retreating figure, "Father?"
The second child, Ning Xi'er, looked at her older brother, then at Ning Che...
He followed up with the question, "Dad?"
Ning Yong and Ning Tong'er, being a bit mischievous, rushed up and looked up at Ning Che...
Hmm, I don't know him/her...
One of them clung to Ning Xu's leg, pleading, "Second Uncle, I won't let you go..."
Unexpectedly, after playing for only a short while, the two little ones had already become familiar with Ning Xu...
Ning Xu felt both warm and reluctant to part...
Ning Che slowly squatted down and hugged the two large ones into his arms.
Let their little heads rest on your shoulder.
Ning Che instructed, "When Father is not around, you must listen to Mother..."
Take good care of Mom for Daddy, okay?
Ning Zhong's eyes lit up, while Ning Xi'er was slow to react.
Bai Yanying followed, took the four children's hands, her eyes showing reluctance, but her attitude was firm and strong.
Ning Xi'er seemed to see a fleeting moment of emotional turmoil on Ning Che's face...
But it was only fleeting. Ning Che turned to Ning Xi'er and calmly said:
"let's go!"
Ning Xi'er quickly led the two out of the space.
Sure enough, as soon as they landed, they heard a commotion outside the tent.
It turned out that the granary was empty, and the soldier in charge of feeding the soldiers came to Ning Che for instructions...
However, Zheng Ye stopped him outside the tent.
The soldiers, seeing that Zheng Ye looked unfamiliar, became suspicious of his identity and began to argue...
The sentries heard the commotion and witnessed General Ning leading the man into the tent. They then engaged in some discussion with the soldiers...
Ning Che lifted the tent flap and went outside.
The soldiers immediately clasped their hands in salute, and after reporting the situation, Ning Che told them to go back and wait for him, and that he would come over later.
Without saying a word, the soldier left immediately.
He left with a worried look on his face.
Even a skilled cook can't cook without rice. They had complete faith in their commander, General Ning, and it was thanks to him that they were able to survive for so many days without supplies...
And they led everyone to persevere for so long.
The soldiers have just learned from other people that the villagers who fled the famine have, for some unknown reason, returned to the village...
General Ning couldn't just stand by and do nothing, but it would be a considerable burden for them, who were already short of food.
Back in his tent, Zheng Ye remained conscientiously on duty.
Ning Che lowered his head in thought, and Ning Xu's worries of the past few days vanished.
Ning Xu looked at Ning Xi'er and asked, "Little sister, if your brother wants to borrow grain from you..."
I meant the space in my online space, little sister, do you agree?
Ning Xi'er had already shown them all the supplies in the space.
They had ample reserves and sufficient quantity, but they were unaware that this space also possessed the potential for endless exploitation.
The system can automatically replenish used food and supplies.
Even though Ning Xi'er had already explained in the space that the purpose of showing them around was to let them know about the resources that could be mobilized...
But Ning Xu was still a little embarrassed when he spoke.
As the elder brother, he failed to protect his younger sister and instead had to accept her gifts...
Ning Xi'er chuckled teasingly, "Why are you so distant with me, Second Brother?"
He then turned to Ning Che and Ning Xu, saying, "What's mine is mine, so please use it as you like!"
Hearing Ning Xi'er's bold words, Ning Xu couldn't help but chuckle.
I was filled with emotion; I never imagined that my younger sister would grow up so much before and after the exile...
Not only did he have a miraculous encounter, but he's also so mature and sensible...
When problems arise, he can also become a trustworthy partner for him and his older brother.
After a moment's thought, Ning Che looked up and gestured for Ning Xu and Ning Xi'er to sit to the side.
He already understood Ning Xi'er's attitude during their time in the space and just now, so there was no need to waste time being formal...
Although he also felt guilty for taking away the resources meant for taking care of his younger sister.
"Second brother, is there enough food left in the army to last until tonight?"
Ning Che asked about military supplies and instructed Ning Xu to personally inspect them the first time each day to ensure he had a clear understanding of the situation.
Ning Xu looked somewhat troubled. "The granary is empty, and there are only two bags of grain left in the kitchen, barely enough to last tonight..."
However, the horses' fodder is insufficient for tonight...
The desert already has sparse vegetation, and now that the weather is getting colder, winter is just around the corner...
The ground was bare, and there was no grass for the horses to eat.
"Instruct the kitchen staff to deliver two bags of grain to the village..."
Ning Che gave the order.
