Song Sanniang was still a little uncomfortable. When she entered this world and found out that the original owner was a female general disguised as a man, she made a secret decision in her heart.
In addition, the male protagonist disguises himself as a woman to hide his identity, so it is obvious that the two of them are suitable to be together.
She helped Xie Jinze avoid having his identity discovered in advance and being forced to flee, and in return he could help her solve worldly problems - getting married and having children.
Their relationship is not like that of a husband and wife, but more like a partnership, where each gets what they need.
When she helps Xie Jinze to reach that position, she will not return to being a daughter and become a good wife and mother.
What she didn't expect was that Xie Jinze would show such an intimate gesture.
That's why he felt surprised in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face and took over the conversation readily.
"That's right. The conditions here in Tongguan are definitely not as good as those in the capital. I'm sorry for your hard work."
As soon as Xie Jinze's words, which sounded like a complaint and dissatisfaction, came out, they sounded wrong and he immediately regretted it.
He opened his mouth, wanting to explain that he didn't mean anything else, he just felt that the weather was hot and the room was stuffy and uncomfortable, and he didn't mean to dislike it.
Xie Jinze's expression was easy to understand. Song Sanniang knew what he was thinking at a glance.
He smiled and shook his head, "I understand. Besides, what you said is true."
"By the way, how are Zhiyuan and Huaixu? Did they bother you?"
When Xie Jinze heard Song Sanniang mention the two children, he thought of those two little crybabies and felt a headache.
"They're pretty good."
The main thing is that there is a wet nurse and several maids and old women looking after the child. They are much more experienced than him, so he doesn't have to watch the child all the time. So things have been fine these days.
Having said that, he stood up and went to the two children's room with Song Sanniang. It was a rare opportunity for them to hold their children together to strengthen their parent-child relationship.
Especially Song Sanniang, she has been busy with how to defeat the barbarians since her child was born. After the war, because Cheng Wuan was still ill, she was busy dealing with all kinds of complicated cleanup work alone.
This was the second time she saw the two children. They were soft and limp in her arms, staring at her with their big eyes, not crying.
Xie Jinze, who was holding the waiter Huaixu, was frantically trying to coax the child in his arms, but the waiter still looked unhappy.
It seemed like she was about to burst into tears with a pout in the next second.
Xie Jinze had a look of deep resentment on his face, and the wet nurse beside him was constantly instructing him on how to hold the baby so that the child would not feel uncomfortable.
Xie Jinze carefully adjusted his posture, and the waiter in his arms still had the same little expression.
He glanced at the child in his arms who had a bitter and unhappy look on his face, and then looked at the eldest brother who was smiling happily in Song Sanniang's arms.
I feel a little dissatisfied. Why is there such a big difference between him and Song Sanniang?
Song Sanniang didn't expect that the two children in her arms were not afraid of strangers.
The two children had not opened their eyes yet when they were born. This was the first time they saw her, and she held them without resistance.
Sure enough, she is still so popular with children.
She discovered that in her previous world, as soon as she held the child, no matter how crying and making a fuss, the sky would immediately clear up and the child would turn into a soft white bun, smiling happily at her.
Xie Jinze watched from the side for a while, looking back and forth between Song Sanniang and the eldest and second child in his arms.
Somewhat unwilling to give up, she exchanged with Song Sanniang and held the other child.
However, the eldest brother, who was originally smiling happily in Song Sanniang's arms, fell into his arms when he looked up and found that someone was not right, and his face slowly fell.
On the other hand, when the second brother saw Song Sanniang's face, it was obvious that her face had lost its original skin color due to the wind and sun in the military camp.
Compared with Xie Jinze's fair and smooth face, she looked a little rough.
The two children are still young, and according to common sense, Xie Jinze's face should be more pleasing to the children.
But the situation was completely reversed here, and the children were actually closer to Song Sanniang.
Song Sanniang held the child and rocked him slowly, and soon the waiter fell asleep with his eyes closed.
The eldest child also fell asleep, but it was not Xie Jinze who coaxed him to sleep, it was entirely the wet nurse's credit.
After Song Sanniang put the child in her arms back into the bamboo basket, she motioned Xie Jinze to follow her.
Xie Jinze knew at a glance that Song Sanniang had something to discuss with him, so he followed her and left the two children's room together.
Song Sanniang thought about the important matter and decided that it would be better to discuss it in the study. When she passed by their room, she went straight to the study without stopping.
"My father already knows what I promised you before, and he has agreed to support you."
When it came to business, Xie Jinze's expression became serious and he immediately became serious.
"There was a problem with that batch of food. I thought you would go back on your word."
Before he finished speaking, Song Sanniang raised her eyelids and glanced at him.
"Oh~, I thought you knew this would be the result from the beginning."
Peng Tao is a greedy and lustful person. He claims to be righteous and moral, but he is corrupt and vicious in his heart.
In his view, such a large amount of grain passing through his territory was like a free lunch falling from the sky. There was no reason for him to spit out something he had eaten.
As for the food, it may be the life-saving food for the soldiers in Tongguan, but what does it have to do with him?
Anyway, it wasn't his soldiers who starved to death. Even if those soldiers starved to death, it was because Cheng Wuan was incompetent and it wasn't his fault.
So Song Sanniang was not surprised at the result. She knew that the food could not be recovered, but she still did it.
It was not a superfluous move, but she wanted to add fuel to the fire in the hearts of the soldiers in Tongguan and make their anger burn even more fiercely.
Moreover, the quantity of that batch of food was huge. Considering the military strength in Nanyangguan City, it would take more than one or two days to eat it all.
Then we just need to wait for them to attack and we will have food.
Not only Song Sanniang knows what Peng Tao's reputation is, but the group of people under Xie Jinze who were left to him by Emperor Jing must also know it.
Even if he didn't know, as long as he sent someone to inquire, he would easily find out what kind of person the commander of Nanyang Pass was.
The two looked at each other and knew that they had the same idea.
Xie Jinze felt a secret excitement in his heart. He was happy that someone was on the same wavelength as him, and that person was Song Sanniang.
His husband was also her wife, and now, perhaps, they are still confidants.
Xie Jinze no longer made unnecessary attempts and seriously discussed the next plan with Song Sanniang. Song Sanniang then told Xie Jinze the relatively complete plan she had thought of. The two of them discussed it together for half the night and thoroughly perfected it...
The next morning, Xie Jinze wrapped himself up tightly and got on the carriage, heading to the military camp with Song Sanniang.
In his hand, hidden by his cloak, he was holding the imperial edict left to him by Emperor Jing.
If everything goes well with the plan, he can openly present himself as a man from today on.
