Shen Ningsi did not continue to struggle, and Gu Hong was very surprised.
Even without San Yazi's hint at this moment, Gu Hong knew that Shen Ningsi was slowly accepting him.
"No, no, no... We don't want to marry any wives!" The soldiers shook their heads.
They have all seen the endings of their brothers. Although many of their wives have never abandoned them, they are no longer able to be the pillars of a family, and have caused their wives and children to suffer!
These people may go to the battlefield at any time, and the future outcome is uncertain. They don't want the daughter of a good family to suffer with them.
"You bunch of wimps! Cowards! Don't think I don't know what you're thinking! On the battlefield, you're so brave in killing the enemy, but when it comes to getting married, why are you all so cowardly?"
Gu Hong's face showed an expression of disappointment.
"General, you know that on the battlefield, no one knows what will happen next. We all hang our heads on the belt. We have already let our parents down, so we can't let our wives and children down too."
Ermao, who usually drinks heavily, took the initiative to stand up at this time, with an unusually determined expression on his face.
"Bullshit! If everyone thinks like you, will our Great Zhao still have soldiers capable of resisting foreign enemies in the future? We might as well just take off our armor and surrender now!"
Gu Hong said this with an angry look on his face.
"You guys are so timid when doing things. I really despise you. Don't say you are from my Gu Family Army anymore!"
Gu Hong snorted coldly.
At the same time, he felt a sense of sadness in his heart, because he knew that each of these brothers was very responsible.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be in the disciplined Gu family army.
"Didn't you ask me to divide the land on the mountain today?" Shen Ningsi felt the atmosphere nearby and suddenly became extremely serious, with a hint of sadness.
"Yes, General's wife, I asked you to come here today to divide the mountain land for us!"
Hui Niang reached out and wiped the corners of her eyes, then a smiling expression appeared on her face.
Seeing her like this, Shen Ningsi sighed silently in his heart.
"The mountain land I've assigned you today is small, but there's another more important matter I want to talk to you about."
Shen Ningsi suddenly straightened the expression on his face.
"Madam, please tell me anything. As long as it is something we can do, we will do it even if it means death!"
Ermao said this excitedly.
In his eyes, Shen Ningsi and Gu Hong are the same. Gu Hong defends his country on the battlefield, while she works for the welfare of the people in the rear.
This time, potatoes were discovered first, saving countless people of the Great Zhao State. Later, wine was brewed and the watermelons from Shihe Village were made into delicious canned watermelons, which were sold to the capital!
All of this fell into the eyes of the soldiers. Although no one said it, they still admired the general's wife in their hearts.
"What Gu Hong said just now is what I want to say."
Shen Ningsi spoke slowly, and when the soldiers heard her say this, they showed surprise on their faces.
"Madam, I wonder what you mean by this?"
Zhao Xianxing was the first to stand up, because he had never thought about getting married!
"Hui Niang, if you knew that your husband might not come back from the battlefield, would you still marry him and bear children for him?"
Ana Shen spoke lightly.
She knew that some things, although seemingly unimportant, could destroy a person's will.
"Yes! Even if I knew Youcai would be seriously injured on the battlefield, I would still marry him without hesitation!"
Hui Niang's words were like throwing a big stone into the calm lake.
Tong Youcai in the crowd was surprised. He didn't expect his wife to love him so deeply.
"I can do that too!"
As soon as Hui Niang finished speaking, Afang stood up without hesitation.
Tang Haiyang was also very touched.
"I can..."
"And me!"
All of a sudden, the expressions on all the women's faces became excited.
Every one of the people at the scene looked at Shen Ningsi seriously.
The expressions on the faces of the men present were also unpredictable. The bachelors really envied these soldiers. It is said that a friend in need is a friend indeed. At this moment, they all believed what the women said.
"Although we are all women, we also have our own standards in our hearts."
Ana Shen spoke lightly.
"Back then, Gu Hong was captured and taken to the border and sent to the battlefield. Many people in the village said he was doomed. At that time, even I believed what the villagers said and thought he was dead."
Ana Shen spoke lightly.
At this moment, although she knew that what she said was somewhat different from the facts, if it were her at that time, she would definitely do the same as she does now.
"He had three children left at the time, and I was pregnant. However, I was able to overcome all the difficulties and finally gave birth to An An and Kang Kang."
Ana Shen spoke lightly, with a faint smile on her face.
When Gu Hong heard her say this, warmth appeared in his eyes, and then a look of regret appeared on his face!
Because if he knew that Shen Ningsi was so sincere to him, he would not pretend to be a stranger.
Although the gap between the two of them has gradually dissipated, every time Gu Hong thinks of this, he still feels very regretful.
"Don't you think that what I did as a woman is great?"
At this time, she looked seriously at the changes in the faces and nerves of the soldiers present.
"Madam, your heart is like the man who holds the boat in the prime minister's stomach."
Ermao is a rough man. He wants to say some elegant words, but finds that he can't do it.
"That's called a prime minister's broad mind, but I can't be compared with a prime minister. I'm just a peasant woman from a small village."
Shen Ningsi hurriedly shook her head. The reason why she stood here today and said so much was not to make these soldiers grateful to her, but to make them establish the correct ideas.
Fortunately, she had some prestige in the soldiers' minds. If she were a villager from Tangjia Village, the only things that would stay with her at this time would probably be rotten eggs and green vegetable leaves.
"The reason I've said so much today is because I want to use their words to tell you that women are not to be feared, and getting married is even less to be feared! No matter what happens in the future, we will not regret our choice today."
After Shen Ningsi finished her last sentence, the women all clapped their hands excitedly.
"Ma'am, you're absolutely right! Even if the child's father is injured and can't take care of himself, so what? As long as he's here, we're a happy family! Even if he dies on the battlefield one day, I will proudly tell the child that his father is a hero!"
