Pet wife Imperial Examination Road

After Cheng Mu finished listening, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Well, did I guess right?"

Cheng Mu nodded, Yun Yun was right, he really wanted to check the grain inside.The imperial court will prepare sufficient food and grass, but in fact, not so much is distributed to the soldiers, and they are exploited layer by layer.

"What did you see as a result?"

"There is indeed grain and grass in it, but there is rice bran in the rice."

Yun Yun covered her mouth and whispered, "You mean someone is corrupt?"

"Why aren't you surprised now, you couldn't believe it before."

"I've really learned a lot during this time, and I listened to what you said." Yun Yun patted her chest with her hands as she said, "Aren't the soldiers in Xinjiang not full?"

"This is out of our control. Since it can be deducted openly, it means that the superiors think that this battle will definitely be won. As long as they win, the imperial court will not blame them."

Yun Yun said with a look of strict justice, "If I were an official, I would definitely be a strict and honest official and take good care of the common people."

After Cheng Mu heard this, he laughed, "When you really become an official, you will know that there is a lot of helplessness."

Yun Yun was just talking casually, how easy it is to be an official.

We had to go on the road at night, and everyone was exhausted. We asked the officers and soldiers, and they said that we could only rest in the next town in the middle of the night.

The food and grass team came to the middle of a canyon, everyone was on alert, and everyone held a torch.

If you really encounter a sneak attack or something, this is really a good place, and there is no way to escape if you are blocked from front to back.

Cheng Mu asked Yun Yun to grab the corner of his clothes and looked around vigilantly.The team moved forward slowly, and the night was quiet and scary except for a little wind.Some are timid, and a few people speak boldly.

The quieter it was, the more people felt that something was wrong. Suddenly they heard a horse barking in front of them, and the crowd scattered all of a sudden.

"Go back quickly! Go back!" Someone in front shouted while running, Cheng Mu took Yun Yun's hand and ran back, until they ran far away before they pretended to turn around and look back.

The flames in the distance were concentrated in one place, the voice was noisy, and a person fell to the ground panting, Yun Yun quickly helped him up, "What's going on in front?"

The man took a long time to catch his breath, "There was an avalanche ahead, and the first few carriages were buried."

Cheng Mu frowned. There were so many people and horses walking in the canyon, and the sound of footsteps echoed in the valley.

"Go and have a look."

The two ran quickly, the big guys were all heading out of the valley, only they were going in the opposite direction.

When we arrived, a carriage was half covered, and the people had been dug out, but the horse was still buried in the snow.

"Is there a shovel?" Cheng Mu asked.

"Yes, but the snow is so thick, how can we dig it out." The officers and soldiers complained, how could they encounter such a big thing, now they can only wait for the people from the government to come to help at dawn.

"The heavy snow is pressing down on the horses. If you don't dig them out quickly, the horses will freeze and you will have to pull the carriage." Cheng Mu took the shovel from the officers and soldiers, handed it to Yun Yun, and started digging the snow.

Not to be outdone, Yun Yun lowered her head and started shoveling snow.

The officers and soldiers on the side saw the two men working so hard, and they all picked up tools to dig snow.It was winter, but now everyone was drenched in sweat, and the snow became more and more solid. After digging for a while, the horse's head was exposed.Cheng Mu started digging beside the horse, and when the snow was almost gone, he slapped the horse's butt, and the horse stood up vigorously.

Those who did not dig in the middle of the night held torches, and those who dug moved forward slowly.The body of the person who was buried at the beginning was almost frozen, so Cheng Mu hurriedly asked someone to make ginger soup.Progress in an orderly manner, and when the sky is about to dawn, everyone and the horses are finally dug out, and the food and grass are put aside first, human life is the most important thing.

At first, the officers and soldiers didn't like Commander Cheng Mu. Seeing him shoveling snow in the snow with his shirt off, he quickly handed him a bowl of ginger soup.Cheng Mu didn't refuse either, and directly handed it to Yun Yun. "You drink first, then go to rest after drinking, be careful of catching a cold."

After working all night, her hand started to ache after putting down the shovel. Yun Yun sat on the sidelines and put on her cotton-padded clothes, finished her ginger soup, took the initiative to fill a bowl and came to Cheng Mu.

"Hurry up and drink too. I brought a sweat towel, so wipe yourself off quickly."

Cheng Mu didn't force it, picked up the ginger soup and drank it all in one swoop, rubbed his hands with snow before going to the side to rest.

Seeing Cheng Mu coming back, the leading escort officer said flatteringly, "Thank you so much, we really don't know what to do without you."

Cheng Mu wiped the sweat off his body with a sweat towel, "I'll leave the rest to you, quickly dig the road, and hurry across the canyon before the sun comes out."

The escort officer nodded in agreement on one side, but on the other side he yelled for everyone to dig the snow, looking aggressive.

Cheng Mu put on his clothes again, leaned against a tree by the side of the road to rest, and Yun Yun also sat beside him.

"What happened to your hand?"

"hurts a little."

Cheng Mu saw a few small blisters on Yun Yun's hands. He probably used too much force with the shovel. His hands have calluses from heavy work all the year round, so there is no need to be afraid of them.

He took out a small piece of sharp sawdust from the branch, and blew on Yun Yun's hand where there was a blister, "Be patient, it will be fine in a while."

Yun Yun turned her face away and did not look at it, Cheng Mu stabbed the sharp point of the sawdust into the blister, quickly pierced all the blister, and squeezed out all the pus inside.

Squeezing and blowing with her mouth, Yun Yun held back her hands.

"Okay, it will heal in a few days, why so hard."

"I just want to catch up with you. I do it so fast, so naturally I can't fall behind."

"The two of us have made a big contribution this time."

When the sun came out, the snow had almost been cleared, and the team moved on.

Cheng Mu held Yun Yun's hand, and the officers and soldiers beside him pretended not to see her.

When we arrived at the next town, it was almost afternoon.Cheng Mu went to a restaurant and ordered two side dishes and a guest room. They planned to rest here for a day and then go back tomorrow.

Xiao Er quickly brought out the food, Yun Yun's hand was still hurting, so Cheng Mu directly picked up the food and fed him.At first Yun Yun was a little embarrassed, there was no outsider in the room, and he only opened his mouth to eat at Cheng Mu's insistence.

It was the first time to stay in a hotel, and Yun Yun felt so happy lying on the bed, "Cheng Mu, does it cost a lot of money to stay here for a day?"

"Fifty Wen a day."

"Forget it, I'll only live here once, but this room is really comfortable. You see, this house is all made of wood."

Cheng Mu sat by the bed and said, "When we have money in the future, we will build a wooden house, exactly like here."

"Okay."

Cheng Mu went out to call Xiao Erduan for hot water, and when he came back, Yun Yun was already lying on the bed and fell asleep without even taking off her clothes.

He was really exhausted this night, Cheng Mu took off Yun Yun's cotton coat, wiped his face, and covered him with a quilt.

The sleeping face of the person on the bed was very peaceful, Cheng Mu bent down and lightly pecked Yun Yun's pink lips.As soon as he turned his face, he felt a fever all over his body. This feeling was stronger than before when Yun Yun was a woman.

He hurried out to enjoy the cool breeze to suppress his desire, he hadn't given Yun Yun a grand ceremony yet.

When Yun Yun woke up, she felt that her whole body was about to fall apart. Cheng Mu fell asleep on the small couch beside him. When he got up, he saw that he had directly occupied the entire bed.

He stood up and stretched, and was about to go out quietly when Cheng Mu opened his eyes and woke up.

"I want to go out and get some air."

"I'm awake too, let's go for a walk."
