Su Zhi, who was carrying Little Pancake in her arms, had her movements obstructed. Su Zhi scuttled back and forth in the huge military camp, but still did not see Ah Jin's figure.
There were many places that she could not go to in the camp, so she could not care about that too much.
Seeing that she was so anxious that he was even carrying a crying child, Xiao Qian went down from the stands and asked with concern: "What's wrong, Madam?"
Su Zhi explained the situation to Xiao Qian while coaxing the child in his arms.
"I have no intention to bother you, General. It's just that that child Ah Jin has always been a good girl and has never cried before. I'm worried that he would ?"
Xiao Qian had a general idea of the situation and quickly called his subordinate to look for someone.
The child was not far away, and it was impossible for him to leave the city through the closed gates. At most, he would just hide in a corner and cry.
"Go back to the camp first, the child definitely won't be able to get far. Although this place is big, it's tightly shut in all directions. He'll probably come back after crying for a while."
Even though she said that, how could Su Zhi really be at ease.
The obedient and sensible child was trying to suppress her playful nature. If she became hysterical one day, she really didn't know how to do the thinking for him.
After Xiao Qian left, Su Zhi carried the child and looked around. In the end, she did not see Ah Jin.
His heart was in turmoil.
She calmed Little Pancake down with great difficulty, causing him to be so exhausted that she was about to fall asleep.
The sky gradually darkened. The northern horizon had a short sun, and the sun had already set. The afterglow of the setting sun was gone in the blink of an eye, and the dark blue sky was dark and gloomy.
Just like Su Zhi's complicated heart.
In the early hours of the morning, the barrack's kitchen began to boil and cook.
Afraid that the child was hungry, Su Zhi took out a bottle of yoghurt from her spatial storage and handed it over to Little Pancake.
This personal system of hers was rather interesting. It seemed like only with her and her child alive would they be able to obtain an additional reward ?
In the time it took for an incense stick to burn, a soldier came in and brought her food. Su Zhi had no appetite, all she wanted to know was how the situation was with Ah Jin.
The soldier who brought the food was unclear, so he put down the meal and left.
Su Zhi looked at the dinner in the box on the table. It was just a bowl of rice covered with some vegetables and two white buns, but there was a small plate of meat on the side.
Since the food in the army was poor, it was no wonder that soldiers had to rely on hunting to sacrifice their teeth.
Su Zhi tried to eat some meat, she scrunched her eyebrows in disgust, and she also ate some vegetables. She was so bitter that she was speechless, and could only barely take two bites of the dry white bun to maintain her stamina.
Ah Jin had disappeared for a good half a day. Su Zhi was extremely anxious, and at the same time, she was struggling for the future.
The Heavens could be considered blessing her. She would not die from hunger if she did not have any help from the System. However, she still needed to think hard about how to grow her two children's physical and mental health.
In the day, Xiao Qian had proposed to find a job first, even if he didn't return to the village, he would have to find a place to settle down.
At most two days in the military camp, it would be inconvenient for a woman like her.
Su Zhi was lost in thought, and did not notice that the tent was opened.
It was only when the crisp sound of her 'mother' rang in her ears that she realized someone had entered.
"Ah Jin?"
After leaving for half a day, the child appeared unharmed in front of her. His red, swollen eyes were like two peaches, and there were even tears. His nose was still red, and his stubborn cherry lips were pursed into an arc.
"Found him at the camp."
Xiao Qian, who had yet to take off his military uniform behind him, explained to her.
Su Zhi nodded, she pulled the child into her embrace and quickly checked whether the child was injured or not.
"Thank you very much, General."
She was very grateful to Xiao Qian for his help over and over again, and even managed to find Ah Jin.
"No need to be polite, if there's anything you need, you can bring it up. The conditions in the camp are very harsh, so bear with it." After receiving His Majesty's orders, you can return to the imperial court as a teacher. When the time comes, you can take your children away and see where the An clan is. "
"This general's great kindness, this humble woman has no way to repay it."
Xiao Qian did not mind, he nodded slightly and agreed.
Seeing that the food on the table was almost exactly the same, he asked again, "Is it not to your liking?"
Su Zhi quickly got up and explained: "I saw that the cook in the army camp was also inexperienced, after training during the day, he still had to prepare three meals a day for the soldiers. Although this humble woman is not much better off, she can still do it with difficulty. If General does not mind, you can let me try. "
Since he would be leaving in a few days, it would be better to find a good reason to stay than to find trouble with others instead of eating or drinking.
After the main force leaves, I will think of a place to settle down.
