Otherworldly Castle Era

Vol 4 Chapter 37: Little daily

   In the central town of Antong County, at dusk, on a fishing boat in the Zhenbei River, a young fisherman was shaking the scull towards the shore.

   "Brother, how is the harvest today?" On the stone platform on the shore, a girl in a thin cotton skirt with a green bottom and yellow flowers took the rope thrown by the young fisherman and looked into the fishing boat while pulling it.

   "Xiaoqian, today's luck is okay, brother caught a few big fish today, one can be made for your sister-in-law to replenish your body, and the rest can be sold as a hotel and inn can buy you and your sister-in-law some jewelry."

   The young fisherman landed the fishing boat, jumped from the bow to the shore, took the rope from the girl's hand, and while dragging the fishing boat ashore, he seemed to think of something happy, and he laughed.

   "Brother, you really feel sorry for your sister-in-law." The girl gently said to the young fisherman, and then thought of the lover in the barracks, her expression inevitably disappointed.

Listening to the praise of his sister, the young fisherman laughed and said, "That is, you don't look at whose brother I am." As he thought of the current life, he couldn't help sighing, "Hey~! I blame your brother for my inability to prevent your sister-in-law from having a leisurely life during pregnancy."

   "Brother~ don't say that." The girl looked at her brother's mature personality completely different from the past, and said comfortingly: "Since Big Brother Li joined the army, you have carried this house alone."

   This young fisherman is Wu Miao who lives in Zhongxin Town, this girl is Wu Xiaoqian, and the "sister-in-law" they call is Li He.

   It has been more than five years since Li He joined the army in the fourth year of Tianqi. The wedding of Wu Miao and Li He was held when Li He was on vacation to visit relatives in early March of the eighth year of Tianqi.

When the two married, Wu Miao was 22 years old and Li He was 21 years old. Even in Xia Guo, the grade of marriage is relatively late. In fact, they were rushed by people around them a long time ago. However, Li He and Wu Miao insisted on waiting for Li He to participate in the wedding.

   Nowadays, Xia Guo has a policy of rewarding childbirth, and all the people around him have become families. But Li He and Wu Xiaoqian's wedding don't know when it will be held, and they are both in their grades.

   This year (the 9th year of the Apocalypse) Li He is already twenty-four years old, and Wu Xiaoqian is also twenty years old. Both Wu Miao and Li He's first child are about to be born, and Li He can't help feeling sad sometimes.

"Xiao Qian, this family is not something I can support alone. If it weren't for the military payment sent back by your brother Li within a month, our family would not be as good as it is now." Li He joined the army except for a small part of the military payment. I kept it for my own use, and sent the rest to his home in Zhongxin Town.

   Wu Miao was talking about Li He, and suddenly remembered something, and said anxiously to Wu Xiaoqian: "By the way, today seems to be the day when Li He sends money back every month. Let's go back to the inn to get it."

   After finishing speaking, he took out a large basket of fish from the fishing boat and asked Xiaoqian to help it, urging Xiaoqian to speed up.

   "Brother, don't worry, my sister-in-law and I have already been to the inn this afternoon." Wu Xiaoqian looked at the opposite side, even though the older brother was a little bit reckless, she couldn't help but feel a little helpless.

   When Wu Miao heard Wu Xiaoqian's words, he smiled awkwardly, and asked, "How many are there this time? Has Li He been promoted?"

   "Brother, take a break." Although Wu Xiaoqian usually helps the family do some work within their capacity, she is a girl after all and is not good at physical strength. After walking towards home, he put the fish frame under a weeping willow beside the riverside road.

Wu Xiaoqian put down the fish frame and stood up straight and said to Wu Miao: "Brother, how can you say that? Didn't you see the injury on his face when Big Brother Li came back last time? He is now a small official but he has spent his life on the battlefield. of!"

   "Yes, yes, what I said is wrong." Wu Miao saw his sister's anger, and hurriedly admitted that he was wrong, but then he said in a voice that could only be heard by himself: "Isn't there no war in the past few years."

   Wu Xiaoqian looked at her brother talking to herself a little bit unconvinced, and asked, "Brother, what are you talking about?"

   Wu Miao saw his sister’s eager questioning, and said with an idea: "I didn’t say anything, I’m talking about why this kid Li He hasn’t come back, so my brother can get you two married sooner."

   "Brother~! If you say that again, people will be angry." Wu Xiaoqian's face suddenly turned red when she heard this.

   Wu Miao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that this trick worked. He thought about Li He's participation in the army, and sighed: "Li He is also true. If he doesn't do anything well, he wants to join the army. If it's other people, it's okay. It's what men should do to defend their homes, but He has a younger sister and a fiancee at home."

   Wu Xiaoqian rolled her eyes at her brother, and said helplessly, "Brother Li is not like you. He doesn't even want to go to militia training during the slack season."

   "Hey, isn't the government canceling the militia training during the slack season, so I'm happy to have a good time." Wu Miao motioned to Xiaoqian to continue raising the fish frame and moving forward.

   Wu Xiaoqian and Wu Miao raised the fish frame and moved on. When she heard her brother's words, she couldn't help saying: "It's not that the militia training has been cancelled, but you can't meet the requirements of the latest militia."

Because the two of them have relatives in the army, the dialogue can not help but involve this direction. Wu Miao said that the official government is the local organization of the Military Bureau~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The army station was set up at the town level to be responsible for the organization. Management and training of the town militia.

Since the implementation of the compulsory soldier system in Xia State, the laborious and laborious policy of all people is cancelled. After all, the current Xia State has reached a population of nearly three million. If the policy of all people is to be implemented, then the militia to be trained every year With more than one million people, the cost is too high.

   So Yang Song discussed with Li Jing, Liu Ji and others and decided that Xia’s reserve consisted of retired soldiers and some capable militias.

  Whether they are conscripts or other soldiers who have served their full length of service, they all belong to the reserve service as long as they are before the age of forty.

   The lean militia is to select a certain number of active militias and militia backbones in the local administrative area and then participate in regular training, making a trade-off between the number of militias and the cost of training.

  Wu Miao and Wu Xiaoqian were talking while holding the fish frame. Suddenly a voice came from the front: "You two are here!"

   "Huh?" Wu Miao looked suspiciously, only to see a close neighbor walking quickly towards them.

   "Uncle Li, what's the matter?" Wu Xiaoqian smiled at the visitor.

   Uncle Li hurriedly said his intentions to the two of them: "I'm here to find your two brothers and sisters, Li He's brother Li He is back!"
