Chapter 321 9th Generation Cannon Fodder 6
Jiang Xiubai felt a little guilty. The children were still young and it was wrong for him to abandon them, but he had to make achievements.
He had not originally planned to do so, but after getting the token, he felt an urgency in his heart. He intuitively felt that he should join the army, which would bring him unexpected gains.
"Er Ya, be good and listen to me. Wait for daddy to come back and bring you some beautiful clothes and jewelry."
Jiang Mengyue was stunned, and thought about it for a while, and then her emotions took over.
"I don't want it, I just want Daddy..."
Jiang Xiubai frowned. Why was Erya so disobedient?
Jiang Mengyue hiccuped, her father's stern face was still very scary.
Jiang Mengyue simply closed her eyes and fell down pretending to faint.
Jiang Xiubai was indeed panicked. He picked up Jiang Mengyue and ran into the house.
"Arya...what's wrong with you?"
Jiang Xiubai put Jiang Mengyue on the bed and examined her, but unfortunately he didn't find anything.
"What should we do now? Hurry...hurry and call a doctor."
Unfortunately, the three sons in the family now either have broken hands or legs and none of them can move at all.
Jiang Xiubai had no choice but to run away by himself.
Nan Xi looked at Jiang Mengyue who had "fainted" and helped her a little in order to make her performance more realistic.
Jiang Mengyue was lying on the bed, her face pale and her breathing weak.
Doctor Jiang hurried over carrying a medicine box. He carefully took Jiang Mengyue's pulse and checked her vital signs.
Doctor Jiang frowned and said, "The patient's condition is a bit complicated. I'll give her acupuncture first. You prepare some hot water."
Jiang Xiubai said anxiously: "Please, Doctor Jiang, you must cure my daughter."
Doctor Jiang began to give acupuncture. Jiang Xiubai stood nervously by the side, watching the silver needles being inserted into Jiang Mengyue's acupuncture points one by one.
Time passed by minute by minute, but Jiang Mengyue still showed no signs of waking up.
Doctor Jiang shook his head helplessly: "I have tried my best. The patient may have been poisoned by some unknown poison or was extremely frightened. I will prescribe some medicine, you can give her first and see if the condition improves."
Jiang Xiubai sent Doctor Jiang away, feeling very heavy-hearted. Could it be that his daughter reacted so strongly because he was going to join the army?
He sat beside the bed, holding his daughter's hand, and called softly: "Erya, Daddy is here, please wake up."
Now Jiang Xiubai had no time to go out. He stayed by Jiang Mengyue's bed all night, waiting for her to wake up.
[Ding! The plot has changed, please fix it. Reward: Infinite Strength. Failure: Deduct the inner beauty physique. ]
Nan Xi was thoughtful. What was going on? I changed the plot myself, so the system had to restart. But Jiang Mengyue changed the plot, so the system adjusted itself?
Isn’t this too much of a double standard?
It’s a pity that Nan Xi couldn’t see the adjusted plot, but I think it was also another opportunity for the male protagonist.
After three days of deep sleep, Jiang Mengyue finally slowly opened her eyes.
Jiang Mengyue said weakly: "Dad...Dad, what's wrong with me?"
When Jiang Xiubai heard his daughter's voice, he immediately jumped up from the chair beside the bed, his eyes filled with tears of excitement.
Jiang Xiubai's voice choked with sobs: "Erya, you finally woke up. Daddy was so worried."
Jiang Mengyue rubbed her eyes dazedly. How come she pretended to be dizzy and actually fell asleep?
I'm just so hungry, as if I haven't eaten for several days.
"Daddy, I want to eat."
"Okay, wait, Daddy will get it right away."
……
Jiang Xiubai didn't dare go out again, because as soon as he went out, Jiang Mengyue would faint, so he had no choice but to give up joining the army.
However, since then, he has become somewhat depressed and silent.
Jiang Xiubai said to himself: "Maybe this is my fate. I am destined to guard this land."
?
Not long after, soldiers and bandits appeared near the village. They burned, killed, looted, and committed all kinds of evil, causing the villagers to feel unprecedented panic.
The village where the Jiang family lived was originally peaceful and harmonious, but with the disappearance of General Xiao, the surrounding situation began to become turbulent.
The elders of the village gathered in the ancestral hall, discussing the recent news.
With General Xiao's disappearance, his troops lost their leader. Some soldiers took the opportunity to cause chaos and turned into bandits who plundered everywhere.
The village chief was worried: "What should we do? Our village is close to the border. If the soldiers and bandits come to our village, our crops, livestock, and family members will be in danger."
Everyone sighed and didn't know what to do for a moment.
Now we can only respond to changes by remaining constant and make preparations early.
The village organized its villagers to be prepared and at the same time, found places to hide food and valuables.
The villagers began to take action. They reinforced the village fence, set up sentries, and even organized some young and strong villagers to form a guard team.
Jiang Xiubai was fortunately selected as the captain of the guard team, organizing personnel to patrol day and night.
Not long after, the soldiers and bandits really came.
When the soldiers and bandits tried to break into the village, Jiang Xiubai led the guard team and stood up bravely.
They used familiar terrain and pre-prepared traps to successfully repel several attacks by the bandits.
After the situation stabilized, the village chief recommended Jiang Xiubai for merit. Coincidentally, the imperial court sent imperial envoy Deng Maolin to investigate the disappearance of General Xiao, and Jiang Xiubai's deeds also attracted his attention.
The imperial envoy's team arrived at the village in a mighty manner, and his appearance made the whole village boil.
The village chief and several elders hurried to greet them and gave a detailed report on the recent situation in the village.
The village chief respectfully reported: "Sir, during this war, Jiang Xiubai from our village stood up and fought to defend his homeland. The villagers are very grateful to him."
Deng Maolin came to the village this time just to meet this brave villager.
Deng Maolin said with interest: "Oh? This Jiang Xiubai is really a character. Please ask him to come and see me."
Jiang Xiubai was brought before Deng Maolin. Although he was an ordinary villager, he was not at all nervous facing the imperial envoy and told him everything he had done.
"My Lord, I just did what I was supposed to do. Protecting our homeland is everyone's responsibility."
Deng Maolin had a very good impression of Jiang Xiubai. He felt that this man was not only brave and resourceful, but also honest and a promising talent.
Deng Maolin said admiringly: "Jiang Xiubai, I really appreciate your performance. I would like to invite you to Beijing. With your talents, you will surely make a difference in the officialdom."
"Sir, I... Of course I am willing, but can my family come to the capital with me?"
Jiang Xiubai appeared humble on the surface, but he was actually already ecstatic in his heart. He was also a little worried as he still remembered the last time Jiang Mengyue fainted. He didn't dare to stimulate his daughter again.
If you can go to Beijing this time, it would be best to bring your family with you.
Deng Maolin was stunned, he didn't realize that Jiang Xiubai was so family-oriented. It was just that he himself was a commoner, and it was not easy for him to go to Beijing.
"Jiang Xiubai, it's not easy to go to Kyoto. Everything requires money. You have to be careful."
