Parents are busy farming

Speaking of this, he hesitated, and then said: "Sister Zifen may feel pity for the families who have lost their children, so she sent some items during the Chinese New Year. It is regarded as a kind of assistance so that they can maintain their livelihood." "

From his expression, we can vaguely guess what Ye Zifen's true thoughts are in his heart.

Old man Zhang nodded slightly in agreement, and then sighed: "The people of the Ye family are indeed kind-hearted, but it is a pity that your brother... I really don't know if he is still alive at this moment."

You know, that is the child he is most proud of! Now, he is extremely heartbroken and worried about the safety of his eldest son.

This year’s Chinese New Year is not much different from usual, it just seems more deserted and bleak.

However, all this is acceptable to Ye Zifen.

On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, Ye Zifen originally planned to send a caravan north.

In the early morning, everyone was making preparations in an orderly manner. Suddenly, a Yacha from the post station came galloping over.

After he jumped off the horse, he couldn't wait to look around for Ye Zifen.

At this moment, Ye Zifen is carefully checking the safety equipment of each carriage.

Since the masters will travel north with the team this time, Ye Zifen is not worried about safety issues, but the necessary inspections still need to be taken seriously.

Looking from a distance, she saw Ye Zining leading a government official walking towards her.

When the official approached, he immediately said: "Miss Ye, here is a letter from the border. I will send it to you as soon as I see it."

When Zi Zifen heard that it was a letter from the frontier, she thought it was from the general who was transporting cotton-padded clothes.

So I didn't check it in a hurry, I just put it on the table casually.

However, when she accidentally glanced at the writing on the envelope, her heart tightened suddenly, as if she was being held tightly by an invisible hand.

Because the handwriting was too familiar to her - it was clearly Zhang Gaoyi's handwriting!

She couldn't help but wonder, why did Zhang Gaoyi's letter arrive here from a distant border?

What's even more puzzling is that it was sent in the name of that general.

But at this moment, seeing the familiar handwriting, she felt an indescribable joy in her heart, because this at least proved that Zhang Gaoyi was still alive.

Although she was so excited that she could hardly control herself, she still managed to squeeze out a smile and said softly to the government servant in front of her: "Thank you for sending me this letter. It's the Spring Festival. Thank you for your hard work."

As he spoke, he took out a delicate purse from his arms and gently handed it to the yamen servant.

This purse was originally distributed by Ye Ye for his daily use. It was filled with finely divided silver ingots. Although each piece was not big, the total amount was at least ten taels.

As the yamen servant rode his horse away, her hands trembled slightly, as if she could not suppress her inner excitement.

She could feel the thickness of the paper inside the envelope and knew that the letter would be quite long.

She took a deep breath, trying to calm her inner turmoil, then tore open the envelope a little roughly, and couldn't wait to read the contents of the letter...

There were seven or eight pieces of paper inside. Ye Zifen's heartbeat accelerated involuntarily. She couldn't wait to reach out and unfold the letter carefully.

As the paper gradually unfolded, her eyes were fixed on the words on it, not missing every line and word.

The further she looked down, the expression on her face became colder, as if covered in frost.

It turned out that just over a month after their departure, they successfully found the destination and successfully purchased some precious food.

However, on the way back to the city, the ship was moving slowly because the ship was full of food, and the fresh water was quickly exhausted.

As they approached a province south of Bactria, they had to stop to replenish supplies.

Who knows, at this moment, bad luck will come.

Some local officials took advantage of the darkness to arbitrarily seize the ship and arrest everyone in jail.

They spent more than two long months in that dark cell, and their life was miserable.

Suddenly, they were inexplicably sent to the northern border.

To make matters worse, they were labeled as felons, which meant that once sent to the front lines, they would be among the first to charge and serve as cannon fodder.

Faced with such a cruel fate, they did not sit still.

Relying on their own martial arts and tenacious will to survive, they struggled to survive on the battlefield and gained a foothold step by step.

Today, Zhang Gaoyi has become a well-known captain of the vanguard and the direct manager of the entire vanguard.

Oops!

The purpose of this letter is not just to report to them that they are safe! More importantly, they want to ask Ye Zifen for help!

After all, they entered the business war with humble bodies and low status. How easy is it to get promoted?

If they hadn't been brave and fearless, dared to fight hard, and achieved great results, they might have died by now.

They are eager for Ye Zifen to help prove their innocence.

In addition, the army is currently short of supplies and lacks food and clothing. Even if he sends those cotton-padded clothes, the vanguard will not get a share.

In other words, the vanguard is suffering from hunger and cold at the moment, and they don't even have the medicine to treat the wounded.

After Ye Zifen read the letter, she was so angry that she almost broke her silver teeth.

She had been on tenterhooks for so long, never expecting that it was those nasty officials from a big country who were behind it!

How could she swallow this breath? Moreover, they suffered such unfair treatment in the military camp.

So, she decided to change her original plan.

She turned to Ye Zining, who had never left, and said, "Brother, please gather everyone together. I have something to tell you."

Ye Zining had never seen Ye Zifen with such a solemn expression, especially at this moment, her eyes were flashing with strong hatred and unwillingness.

He summoned everyone to one place without hesitation and invited Pang Chao to come and get together.

Everyone gathered in the empty training ground. It was the Chinese New Year, and the training ground was empty, which was perfect for everyone to gather together.

When Pang Chao arrived, he immediately noticed the unusually serious look on Ye Zifen's face, and instantly realized that something had happened. But just as he was about to ask, Ye Zifen had handed him the paper in his hand.

Pang Chao took the papers doubtfully and began to read. As the reading progressed, his face gradually became serious.

Finally, he sighed and fully understood why Ye Zifen showed such an expression. He slowly moved his hand behind him and clenched it into a fist. The letter in his hand was also wrinkled due to excessive exertion.

At this time, he was also heartbroken because Ye Zihong was also inside.
