Luo Baobao shook his head like a rattle and didn't bother to drink the 'sacred water' that could replenish his strength.

"Uncle, please stop saying those depressing words that shake the morale of the army. If I, Luo Wuyou, want to join the army, I must rely on my own ability, connections and connections. I would rather help my grandfather raise fish at home than join the army!

"

Xiao An was stunned for a moment and his eyes widened.

"Are you sure?" he asked again.

Luo Baobao looked at Chen'er again, raised the corner of his mouth and continued: "My brother also asked me this last night. My brother is also training soldiers. It's not a problem to take me with you, but I just don't want all of you.

With your help, I will rely on my own ability to join the army."

"Chen'er?" Xiao An asked, looking at Chen'er who was still caressing her sister's back.

Chen'er smiled and nodded gently, "She has her ambition and arrogance, so let's respect her choice and not interfere."

Xiao An could only nod. He leaned down with his hands on his thighs and said to Luo Baobao who was sitting on the ground: "Then your daughter has joined the army and has a lot of inconveniences. Have you thought about how to deal with it?"

Luo Baobao smiled confidently, "My mother told me the story of the previous dynasty. It does not necessarily mean that girls cannot join the army. There is a Niangzi Pass in the north. The origin of its name is that there was an invincible women's army in the previous dynasty."

"My mother also said that a long time ago, there was a family named Yang. Several generations of the family joined the army and made great military exploits. In my grandson's generation, there was Mu Guiying, who was in charge. After that, even in the kitchen at home,

The fire-making maid Yang Paifeng went to the battlefield, and the whole family left their names in the history of the world!"

"What Mu Guiying and Yang Paifeng can do, I, Luo Wuyou, can do it too! I can also take command in the bowl. I want to use my fists to prove to everyone that I am not a delicate young lady raised by the great general who protects the country. I

You can also stand alone!"

Xiao An was shocked when he heard his niece's sonorous and powerful words.

Although Chen'er had already heard it once last night and often heard her sister talk about it in each other's letters home, she was still a little moved when she heard it again now.

He raised his hand and touched Baobao Luo's head, his eyes filled with relief.

Xiao An came back to his senses, gave a thumbs up, and said "Okay!" three times in a row, his voice getting louder and louder!

When the three uncles and nephews returned to the village, Luo Baobao asked Xiao An: "Uncle, do you want to come to my house to have breakfast together? My brother is back, and my mother must have cooked a lot of delicious things!"

At this time, Luo Baobao has regained the liveliness and cheerfulness of a young girl, unlike the heroine who previously set her ambitions on the hillside.

In terms of controlling the role, Luo Baobao is very capable.

Xiao An didn't say it, nor was he unable to explain it. He just smiled and asked Chen'er: "Gama must have cooked a lot of delicious food. Would Chen'er want to come over and eat together?"

When Chen'er heard this question, he immediately understood what Xiao An meant.

He smiled gently, "I rarely go home, so naturally I want to spend more time with my mother. My uncle must be the same way."

Xiao An patted Chen'er hard on the shoulder: "As expected of my nephew, he even thought about it."

After saying that, he turned to look at Luo Baobao: "Do you know the answer now?"

Luo Baobao chuckled, "I understand, see you later!"

"good."

Xiao An nodded and stood at the door watching the brothers and sisters enter the Luo family's courtyard next door before turning back to the courtyard.

"Mom, I'm back, what should I have for breakfast?"

Xiao An asked in a rough voice.

Mrs. Sun is cleaning the yard. After breakfast, Yang Huaming, Yang Huazhou and the others will come over later. Then they will bring their Eight Immortals tables to set up a banquet in the yard.

Although the courtyard was already very clean, Mrs. Sun was worried that there might be some flaws that would affect the guests' enjoyment of eating and drinking, so she cleaned it a second time.

Hearing Xiao An's question, she turned around with a smile while holding a broom: "Are you back from your morning exercise? I had a simple breakfast today. I simmered pork belly noodles in a small iron pot on the stove. I made do with some in the morning.

The other pots in the room will be used for banquets later."

There was a hint of guilt in Sun's eyes.

The younger son finally returned home, but as a mother, she was busy with other things and couldn't spare the time to cook a decent breakfast for her younger son...

"Pork belly and braised salty noodles? Mom, are you the worm in my belly? I've been thinking about this dish for a long time. It's so good, I want to eat three big bowls!"

Seeing Xiao An running away happily, Mr. Sun smiled with satisfaction, okay, okay, as long as he likes it.

After today's busy day, she would have some free time tomorrow to focus on cooking something he likes.

Eating three bowls is a bit exaggerated. It was mainly used by Xiao An to make Mr. Sun happy. Three large bowls of pork belly noodles would definitely not be eaten, but Xiao An still ate two large bowls.

Mrs. Sun was collecting the dishes and chopsticks nearby. Seeing Xiao An holding a bowl and squatting at the mouth of the stove to take a big sip, just like when she was a child and came home from playing wildly to eat, Mrs. Sun couldn't help but smile.

After finishing two large bowls, Xiao An stood up and put the bowls and chopsticks on the pot table while stroking his belly.

"Didn't you say you want to eat three bowls? Why did you stop after two bowls? Let's have some more!" Sun couldn't control it, but she still wanted to give him another bowl.

Xiao An chuckled and said, "I'm not bragging. When I was most hungry, I could finish not just three bowls, but five bowls of my mother's noodles. I'll save my stomach for the lunch banquet later!"

Mrs. Sun smiled and stopped trying to persuade: "Then it's up to you. There will be plenty of food for lunch later. Oh, by the way, you will have time in the morning to go to the pasture to pick up Duo'er and Jiaojiao. It's better than that.

The man and his uncle sent cattle to Linzhen, and they won't be able to come back for a few days."

"Send a cow? What do you mean?" Xiao An asked.

He only knew that the Xiang family had enclosed a piece of land at the foot of the mountain on the Jiangjiapo side for pasture to raise cattle.

As for the sales of the cattle after they are raised, he also knows that they will mainly be delivered to several restaurants owned by his sister.

These days, ordinary people are prohibited from slaughtering cattle unless the cattle dies of illness or old age.

You can't see beef in those roadside stalls and small restaurants on the street.

But those laws and regulations are used to restrain the common people. For powerful people, how can there be no beef on the table?

In large restaurants like Tianxianglou and similar restaurants, not to mention beef, as long as you can afford it, swan meat can be obtained for you.

As for the reason?

It's simple. Being able to open such a big restaurant and deal with the local black and white people is not simple in itself.

Even including raising cattle on a piece of land as large as Xiangjiaquan, it is all because of the support of the elder sister and others. Otherwise, the government would come and put a seal on it.

Hearing Xiao An's question, Mrs. Sun laughed and said: "No, the cow calves raised by Shengnan and the others have grown up a bit. A few days ago, a customer came from the neighboring town and wanted to buy two and raise them first. They can cultivate the land in the spring of next year.
