Chapter 374 Xinghua, you are back!
"Let's go and see if grandma and the others have gone to the ancestral hall!"
Xinghua nodded gratefully to the guards, walked up to Pang Ya and the others, and said to them.
The girls rolled up their sleeves to wipe the tears from their faces, sniffed hard, patted their faces, forced a smile, and walked towards the ancestral hall with Xinghua supporting each other.
They don’t want their mothers to find out that they have been crying when they see them, and they don’t want their elders to worry about them!
After walking for a while, they finally arrived in front of a large courtyard surrounded by blue bricks.
The voices of several people could be heard faintly from the courtyard.
"Mom, I'm going home to pack some things and will be back soon!"
"Sister-in-law, wait for me, I'll go with you!"
The sound was getting closer and closer to the courtyard gate. Everyone looked up and saw Xinghua's mother and Pangy's mother pushing open the courtyard gate and walking out.
"Xinghua, you're back!"
"Fat girl, you're back. How are you? Are you not hurt?"
Xinghua's mother and Pangy's mother saw the people standing in front of the door at a glance. They walked quickly to the girls, took their daughters' hands and looked them up and down, and spoke in unison.
"Mom, we are fine. We didn't go to the battlefield. We just followed our benefactor's friends to learn how to collect herbs and make poisons. We took them to the battlefield to poison those beasts of the Jin Kingdom!"
"Mom, we are not injured. The benefactor said that although we did not go to the battlefield, the poison we provided killed many Jin soldiers, which can be regarded as revenge for our relatives! Let's live a good life from now on!"
When Xinghua and Pangya saw their mother, they finally smiled.
"Xinghua, what's wrong with your voice?"
Xinghua's mother listened to her daughter's hoarse voice and asked with a distressed look on her face.
"Oh! I forgot to drink some water before I set off. I'm thirsty. Just drink some water and you'll be fine. Don't worry, mother!"
Xinghua quickly made up a lie and smiled at her mother.
Upon hearing her daughter's throat was so dry, Xinghua's mother said something and turned around and ran to the courtyard of the ancestral hall.
"Xinghua, wait a minute. We just boiled some water. I'll bring it to you right away!"
She ran so fast that she bumped into the women who came out after hearing the noise outside!
"Hey!"
Grandma Xinghua had just heard Xinghua's voice. Because she was anxious to see her granddaughter, she ran the fastest. At this moment, she was bumped by Xinghua's mother and immediately fell backwards!
I was about to fall to the ground!
If someone at this age were to fall so hard, it would be terrible!
The women screamed and rushed towards Grandma Xinghua, reaching out to help her.
A figure arrived before them and supported Grandma Xinghua.
It turned out to be the leader of the guards.
"Auntie, are you okay?"
He helped Grandma Xinghua to stand firmly, looked at her with concern and asked.
"I'm fine, thank you, Guard!"
Grandma Xinghua smiled kindly and thanked the leader of the guards.
"Nothing happened!"
The leader of the guards let go of Grandma Xinghua's hand and smiled at her gently.
"It must be the adults who sent Xinghua and the others back. You have worked so hard. Come into the yard and drink some water and take a rest!"
Grandma Pangya was relieved to see that Grandma Xinghua was fine. She took a step forward and smiled at the guards standing in the shadows nearby.
"You're welcome, Auntie. Our general ordered us to bring these things. After we move them to the yard, we will hurry back to the barracks to report!"
The leader of the guards stepped aside and pointed at the food and other things on the horses behind him and said.
"General Cao is so thoughtful. We are worried about having no food!"
"Please ask the guard to go back and thank General Cao for us!"
"We can just move in by ourselves. We don't need to bother the adults. The adults' time is precious. Let's go back quickly!"
......
When the women looked at the bags of food, quilts and other items, smiles instantly appeared on their sallow faces. They were extremely grateful to General Cao and the guards!
The women were very quick. Before the chief guard could speak, they ran to the horses and unloaded everything.
"Thank you for your hard work, brothers. Go slowly on your way back and be safe!"
Seeing that the guards had already mounted their horses and turned their horses around to leave, Xinghua hurriedly bowed to their backs and shouted in a hoarse voice.
The leader of the guards turned around, nodded at Xinghua, gave a warm smile, then flicked his whip and led the guards away!
The women knelt on the ground and kowtowed in the direction they were leaving.
It was not until the guards disappeared that everyone stood up, supporting each other.
"Let's move the things back to the yard quickly. With these things, everyone can have a full meal and a good sleep tonight!"
Grandma Pangya picked up a quilt and said to the women, her sad face showing some brightness.
"Mom, you guys carry the blankets, we'll carry the food! After training with our benefactor for a few days, we've become much stronger!"
When Pang Ya saw her mother and aunts were going to move the food, she hurriedly stopped them.
After saying this, he snatched the food from his mother's hand, threw it on his back, and ran towards the courtyard of the ancestral hall.
The other girls also carried a bag of food and entered the yard.
"Xinghua, drink some water to moisten your throat first, don't rush to move things!"
Xinghua's mother came out of the yard carrying a bowl of water, pulled Xinghua, who was about to move grain, aside, and urged her to drink some water first.
Xinghua took the water handed to her by her mother, tilted her neck back, and gulped it down in a few gulps. After drinking, she wiped her mouth, handed the bowl back to her mother, rolled up her sleeves and started to move the food.
