Dressed as an old woman, I carry the system and my son to escape the famine

Li Chen knew that the general had many helplessness, so he could only lower his head helplessly, hiding the depression and sadness in his eyes.

When he appeared like this, Yao Shu could not bear to move forward and comforted him softly: "It doesn't matter. Even if you can't join the army, you can serve the country in other ways in the future."

Li Chen stubbornly shook his head, his face full of sadness: "Besides this method, I don't know if there is a better way. I always think that people like me should die on the battlefield, at least it can be regarded as Get a good name."

"No one is born to die, and neither are you. Don't deny yourself because of others, and don't feel sad because of your life experience." Yao Shu pondered for a moment, and suddenly led Li Chen to the other side.

Li Chen asked in surprise: "Where are we going now? The general said that we are not allowed to move around casually in the military camp."

Yao Shu shook her head helplessly and said comfortingly: "It doesn't matter, I just want to show you something you can't usually see. I believe that after seeing it, you may have some insights and you won't be like you now. So persistent."

After saying that, Yao Shu led Li Chen to a compound with careful twists and turns.

This compound is no different from other compounds, the only difference is that the tent is larger.

Li Chen touched his head in confusion: "Mrs. Shen, what are you..."

"Don't worry, just stand here and take a look. You will know what I want to say in a while." Yao Shu stretched out her finger and pointed outside. Li Chen still didn't know what he meant, so he had to be patient. Look carefully.

With just one glance, he immediately discovered something was wrong.

He looked at the soldier who was staggering out not far away. He seemed to be a disabled person. He had difficulty moving, and his face looked miserable.

After another similarly disabled man came out, he immediately had a bright smile on his face.

Then I heard him speak loudly: "Old Wang, are you feeling better now?"

Lao Wang shook his hands helplessly: "What's good about it? This is how it will be for the rest of my life."

The disabled soldier chuckled: "You can't say that. Maybe we will have other uses in the future. Although this military camp is not a place for us to stay for a long time, the world outside is vast. How do we know that there are no other opportunities?"

Lao Wang added with some worry: "What can we do when we go out?"

"If you really can't find a job, you can go to the capital. I heard that the Shen family opened a Jiutian Restaurant, and the errand business there can accept disabled soldiers." The disabled soldier said optimistically.

Lao Wang also seemed to have seen hope, with a smile on his lips: "There are still such kind-hearted people in the world."

Hearing this, Li Chen subconsciously turned to look at Yao Shu.

He couldn't help but raise his thumb and said: "At that time, I thought it was really strange that your errand plan had such a provision. Now it seems that Mrs. Shen has already expected that there will be too many disabled soldiers without any means. Employed.”

"Even you think they will definitely have employment opportunities, which is enough to show that no one will find new jobs for them. But that's not the point I want you to see. Look at this old man's expression." Yao Shu He looked over with a somewhat sad look.

Li Chen followed her gaze strangely and saw that after Lao Wang left, the face of the disabled soldier was full of pain and sadness.

The disabled soldier gently stroked his leg, and then hammered it again and again in annoyance.

His legs were broken and he had no feeling despite any stimulation.

He pretends to be optimistic and positive in front of outsiders, but in fact he will still inevitably feel sad and painful when he is alone.

The joys, sorrows and joys in the world are all different, and others cannot truly empathize with them.

Li Chen still didn't know why Yao Shu asked him to come see him. He was a little surprised and was about to ask when he heard Yao Shu add: "Don't be anxious, you can continue to take a look here."

After almost two hours, Li Chen saw all kinds of soldiers. They were all injured after coming out of the battlefield, but they were unwilling to leave.

Yao Shu slowly walked over again and asked him what conclusion he had reached.

Li Chen excitedly added: "I know, injured disabled people like them are unwilling to leave the military camp. Naturally, I can't give up my desire to serve the country."

"Wrong, do you know why these disabled soldiers are unwilling to leave here? Is it really because they really want to continue participating in the war?" Yao Shu smiled sadly.

Her smile was filled with helplessness and desolation, and her eyes looking at the soldiers were filled with sadness.

At this moment she seemed to have put herself into the identity of a disabled soldier, so she could truly see into the soldiers' minds.

Li Chen saluted respectfully: "I really don't know, I hope Mrs. Shen can give me some advice."

"Actually, it's very simple. It's because after they leave the military camp, they will suffer all kinds of discrimination." She slowly lowered her eyes.

A gust of wind blew, and the setting sun fell on Yao Shu's face.

He really didn't know what words to use to describe Yao Shu at this moment, who understood the righteousness well and was like a god who had fallen into the world. Even gods have their own sorrows and helplessness, and it is inevitable to feel sad when looking at all living beings.

"Why are they being discriminated against? The law stipulates that after soldiers are injured and retired on the battlefield, local officials should give them many subsidies and rewards, and find corresponding jobs for them..." Li Chen stopped talking, and he suddenly knew that Yao Shu Why do you say that?

If the imperial court could really arrange everything, there wouldn't be so many people without a fixed place or job.

If it weren't for Yao Shu's errand plan, I'm afraid there would be more retired soldiers in the capital who would not be able to get a good settlement.

This is true even for able-bodied soldiers, let alone soldiers who are injured and unable to take care of themselves.

Li Chen suddenly realized that serving the country is not only serving the emperor, but also serving the people.

He can stand in other positions and focus on the interests of the people instead of joining the army and going to the battlefield.

Li Chen slowly looked up at the setting sun and suddenly realized that it was time for many policies to be revamped.

He chuckled and said with relief, "I understand. Thanks to Mrs. Shen for your advice. I will definitely think of another way after I go back."

"The most important thing right now is not to think about which path you should take, but to fulfill your original goals and wishes. Didn't you originally want to go to the Western Regions to find some answers?"
