Midnight came quietly with the sound of horse hooves.
Chu Tiankuo had been traveling all day with his five thousand elite soldiers. The horses were so tired that they were running slower and slower. He stopped and said, "Rest here for two hours. Everyone, get some sleep. I'll be on guard tonight, so everyone get some rest."
"Yes!" Five thousand elite soldiers stopped in unison and dismounted from their horses.
On a cold night, everyone found a tree to sit under, leaned their backs against, closed their eyes and fell asleep, quickly recovering their strength.
Chu Tiankuo found a big tree far away from the crowd and sat down. He took out the letter from Xingnong with only one word "good" written on it, and read it for a while under the bright moonlight. Then he took out a pen and ink and wrote a reply directly on the paper: Rest for two hours, I'll be on guard tonight, I'm hungry.
Xing Nong was still awake. When she was about to exit the creation space, a piece of white paper fell. She reached out to catch it, took a look, and then walked out, picking up the pen and writing: I'll make you a bowl of noodles in a quarter of an hour.
With a sudden thought, he put the note away and went to the kitchen to cook noodles.
The big bone soup is ready. Xingnong had put it in a small stove to cook. Now it is done. I plan to wait until tomorrow morning to cook it with noodles.
Xingnong directly used the bone broth to cook a bowl of tomato soup noodles, fried a poached egg and put some vegetables on it.
It’s very simple and can be made in a quarter of an hour.
When Chu Tiankuo saw the message on the letter, he replied: No need, there is dry food, it's night, go to bed quickly.
But before I could wait for Xingnong's reply, I knew she had already gone to cook noodles.
He could only walk a little further away until the soldiers could no longer see him and then he sat down.
A quarter of an hour passed, and with a thought, a bowl of hot noodle soup appeared in his hands.
This was the first time he had eaten food she had made herself, and it was also the most delicious noodle soup he had ever had in his life.
I didn't expect it to be under such circumstances and in this way.
On a cold night, this bowl of noodles dispels all the cold and tiredness.
Chu Tiankuo replied on the white paper: Delicious, be good, and go to sleep!
Xingnong took the empty bowl back, saw the contents of the letter, and replied: Okay, I will continue to make it for you tomorrow, as a tribute to the cutest person!
Chu Tiankuo raised his eyebrows when he saw the contents on the paper. The cutest person
He touched his face, wondering how he was cute.
Well, he crossed out the word "可". Maybe she was embarrassed to express her feelings directly, so she deliberately wrote an extra word.
Pay tribute to your favorite people!
Chu Tiankuo stuffed the letter into his arms instead of putting it into the silver beads. He took out the soul-soothing grass and put it aside before sleeping.
The soldier not far away was eating hot and spicy noodle soup in his dream.
Xingnong waited for a while but didn't receive any letter, so he went to sleep.
She could never have imagined that in ancient times, she could still "send messages" to others without having to pay for phone bills.

The next day, at night, Xingnong made a bowl of shredded chicken porridge for Chu Tiankuo, and asked how many soldiers he was bringing with him this time.
Knowing that he led five thousand elite soldiers to go first, Xingnong decided to give a bowl of hot porridge to this group of the cutest people who traveled day and night and could only rest for two and a half hours every day, including meal time.
Cooking porridge for five thousand people is not an easy task. Xingnong handed the matter over to Songbai and asked someone to arrange it.
It would be difficult for her to find someone to arrange it in the village herself, as everyone would wonder who she was cooking so much porridge for.
Anyway, Songbai knew that the two beads of Chu Tiankuo were treasures of heaven and earth.
Therefore, on the rest of the journey, Chu Tiankuo arranged for these five thousand elite soldiers to leave the team two quarters of an hour in advance every evening.
This made the elite soldiers, who had been mentally prepared and had been eating cold and hard dry rations along the way, instantly feel like star-level treatment!
After a bowl of hot porridge, my fatigue disappeared a lot and I arrived at the battlefield two days earlier than expected.
A month later, Shen Hanyu and the King of Jin traveled all night and finally arrived at Futai County at full speed!
This month they rushed almost 5,000 elite soldiers to fight!
After sleeping for only two or three hours every day, Shen Hanyu felt like he was about to wither!
Shen Hanyu decided to have a good sleep in the Yingke Building tonight and go to Taohua Village tomorrow.
The King of Jin, however, could not wait and said, "Let's go! We won't sleep until we get there!"
He didn't want to wait even a quarter of an hour!
Can't wait to see my little cotton jacket.
Shen Hanyu rolled his eyes: “Where will you sleep when we get there?”
The King of Jin said as a matter of course: "My Queen!"
They already have children, and have worshipped heaven and earth. As the king of a country, he has never thought that someone would dare not give him a house to sleep in.
Shen Hanyu rolled his eyes: "You wish! I haven't recognized you as my husband yet! Take a look at yourself in the mirror, don't scare the emperor sister!"
The King of Jin, a grown man, certainly couldn't carry a mirror with him. He touched his face, then looked at his son, who had dark circles under his eyes and a long beard, looking like a wretched man. He thought for a moment and said, "Take a rest for a night and go again tomorrow!"
At night, the King of Jin lay in bed unable to sleep. He thought that the third brother was right and he had to use his sincerity to impress his daughter and her mother.
He cannot use his status as a king to threaten them, lest it backfire. If they don't recognize him, it will be troublesome.
The third brother said, we have to take it step by step!
He had to first impress the child's mother and make her agree to go back to the country with him, only then would his princess go back with him.
If he can't handle his daughter's mother and grandmother, there's no way his daughter can return to her ancestral home.
But, it has always been women who try to please him and women who spend all their time thinking about him!
The King of Jin, who had never tried to please a woman, was in a dilemma!
How to please your mother-in-law and women in general
the next day
Gu and Xingqing had breakfast early in the morning and went to the workshop to work.
Leaving Shen Ruoxi and Xing Nong at home.
Xingnong now spends less time in the workshop. She stays at home every day, going into the creation space to revive medicinal herbs and extract high-purity alcohol.
The alcohol was prepared to be refined and used to disinfect the wounds of injured soldiers.
Xing Nong was busy in the house, while Shen Ruoxi was washing clothes in the yard, and there was still a quilt to be washed today.
The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and I have to clean the quilt covers at home and prepare for the New Year.
Shen Ruoxi would go to help in the workshop only after she finished washing the vegetables and washing the clothes every day.
Xing Nong will take her there at that time and check if there are any problems.
At this time, Li Yong carried in a load of water and poured it into the large water tank skillfully.
Li Yong now helps Xingnong's family fill the water tank with water every day. Shen Ruoxi is already familiar with him, at least she is not afraid of him anymore. She smiled and said, "Thank you, Brother Li."
Li Yong smiled and said, "You're welcome."
Seeing that Shen Ruoxi was struggling to twist the quilt by herself, he stepped forward: “I’ll help you.”
Only when two people wring it together can it be drier. Yesterday, he helped Shen Ruoxi wring out the quilt cover when she washed Xingnong, so Shen Ruoxi handed the quilt to him without hesitation.
So when Shen Hanyu brought the King of Jin here, what he saw was his wife twisting the quilt with another man!
