After the autumn harvest every year, bandits in the mountains begin to make their move.

Speaking of these bandits, the first thing that may come to everyone's mind is that they are copycats, and then the boss is the second boss and so on.

If a woman from a good family passes by outside the village, she might be snatched to be the wife of the village, right?

Yes, there are gangs of bandits that use copycats as their model.

However, it is hidden deeper in the mountains, and the cottages are built on steep cliffs that are easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Many of the bandits in those cottages are desperadoes who are on the run and have lives in their hands, or they are reckless people who do not follow principles and bottom lines.

Those people relied on robbing homes, bullying passing traders, and looting villages as their source of income. They literally ate big bowls of meat and drank wine, with hunting torches stuck on their skulls. They were very fierce and bloody.

But there is another type of bandit.

This kind of bandit is usually a simple and harmless-looking villager scattered in various villages.

But during slack times, or when they are short of food and clothing in winter, or on special days such as the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month when they have a big market, they will gather together secretly with special slogans.

Your face is covered with a cloth so that the other person cannot see your true appearance. Sometimes, even other bandits who are with you don't know what you look like or which village you are from.

They would guard several exits in the mountains and rob unarmed villagers at the intersections who came out of the mountains to go to the market, or villagers or small traders who entered the mountains.

Take the Heifeng brothers and sisters from Changping Village, who were robbed twice.

The brother and sister were so frightened that they did not dare to go into the mountains to do business. Even though they sometimes went to a few villages in the mountains, where the oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea were very popular and they made a lot of money, the brothers and sisters did not dare to go into the mountains, especially

It’s even less so after the autumn harvest.

The main reason is that the mountains are not peaceful after the autumn harvest.

In the past years, no matter how noisy there was in the mountains, the bandits would not dare to step out of the mountains and come to the outskirts.

The reason is that there are Narisong's escorts stationed outside.

Going further to Changping Village at the foot of the mountain, Luo Fengtang, the general who protects the country, is guarding the village, so the bandits only dare to make trouble in the mountains.

Since Luo Fengtang went to the capital, and Risong also transferred the escort team to escort Tuoba Xian and others north, the garrison force in the mountains was almost empty.

Luo Baobao's camp is full of teenage female soldiers, which is not a good atmosphere.

So after a period of waiting and watching, the bandits became active again this year.

It can be seen from the several robberies that occurred after the autumn harvest that the activities of bandits will become more frequent and rampant as we get closer to winter, the twelfth lunar month and the New Year.

So this time Luo Baobao came back to the village for two main purposes.

First, I knew that my mother-in-law and my mother-in-law had gone to my uncle's house in Qing'an County. I was worried that my mother and the others would be deserted at home during the Double Ninth Festival, so I came back to spend the holiday with my family.

The second reason is also because of bandits.

Luo Baobao slept with Yang Ruoqing last night, and mother and daughter talked all night long.

She told Yang Ruoqing everything about her plan to form female soldiers to fight bandits within the year.

Not only did Yang Ruoqing receive full support, Yang Ruoqing also gave many deployment suggestions.

For example, tell the wizard and ask him to organize the forces in Nanshan Village so that he can respond to Luo Baobao and help each other.

For another example, go to Zhui Yun Zhui Feng, the wolf king father and son. The wolf king is the overlord of the mountain forest, and you can get twice the result with half the effort by using their power.

In addition, Yang Ruoqing will also spend a lot of money to bring in winter supplies, from cotton-padded clothes, to food, medicine, to sophisticated equipment and weapons, and continuously invest them in the camp and Nanshan Village.

The fight against bandits is a protracted tug-of-war, and we must fight it to the end.

So Luo Baobao is very excited. She feels that the day when she has been raising an army for a thousand days and displaying her ambition is finally coming!

"Auntie, our baby has really grown up."

Thinking of this, Yang Ruoqing was very pleased, raised her head and said to Wang Cuilian.

Wang Cuilian also had a gratified smile on her face, raised two fingers and gestured, saying: "I don't think a little person with such a long body was born and cried so hard that only a mouth and umbilical cord could be seen on his face.

I just cut it off and sealed it with white gauze around her belly button. When I changed her diaper, my legs kicked up wildly."

"I didn't expect that sixteen years would pass in the blink of an eye, and I would be so happy to see her grow into such a big girl..."

Wang Cuilian's words also brought back many memories in Yang Ruoqing, especially when she saw the growing number of white hairs on Wang Cuilian's head, Yang Ruoqing couldn't help but secretly turned her face away and wiped the moisture from the corners of her eyes.

The children have grown up, but the elders have grown old.

Just like the trees on the roadside, with the change of seasons, the leaves turn green and turn yellow. A gust of wind blows and falls with the wind...

But when spring comes next year and the trees are green again, this may be life.

There is an endless stream, one after another, but there is no end to it.

"Qing'er, our baby will be seventeen after the Chinese New Year. Do you want to keep an eye on this marriage?" Wang Cuilian asked in a low voice again.

Yang Ruoqing had already prepared an answer to this question.

Because this was also the most discussed topic in her letters home to Luo Fengtang over the past six months.

Not only Luo Baobao's marriage was discussed, but Chen'er and Dazhi were also discussed.

In the end, the couple's meanings were unified, that is:

"Auntie, our children, whether they are boys or girls, are all different from other families."

"Our children's marriages will take their own course. We will not start arranging arrangements for them just because they are old."

"If there are outstanding children of the same age around us, we can introduce them to them appropriately, but no matter how many there are, we won't interfere,"

"When it comes to marriage, Tang Yazi and I just leave it to chance."

"When fate comes, they will naturally find their favorite partner and start a family."

In her heart, Wang Cuilian actually didn't agree with this.

Because of marriage, they hope to implement it this morning, so that they can feel at ease.

But the child was born to Qing'er and the others, so it's best for the grandparents not to care too much.

Furthermore, Qing'er and Tangyazi's views are different from those of other families, and the grandchildren at home are naturally different from those of other families.

At a young age, Chen'er was talented in both civil and military affairs, and the soldiers under his command were all older than himself.

He also had great ambitions and was admitted to the Juren Examination.

As for Luo Baobao, he is even more different from the girls around him who only know how to embroider and cook.

If Wang Cuilian was really asked to help her grandchildren find their spouses, to be honest, after searching all the villages, she really couldn't find anyone with such a child who could match her grandchildren!

You can't just hastily promote your children's marriage just because you're anxious, right?
