Traveling through the famine, I stockpiled supplies like crazy

Chapter 448 Back on track

Even if I am worried about them and want to know what they are doing, I can't ask now. I'd better wait until they wake up.

After Xu Han and Grandpa Zhao prepared dinner, the Taoist priest and Lu Chuan did not wake up, which showed that they were really tired in the past two days.

Seeing this situation, Xu Han felt it was not a good idea to wake the two of them up to eat, so she took some food out of the pot and let the two children eat first.

As for Xu Han and Grandpa Zhao, they are not very hungry yet, so let's wait a while and have dinner together after they wake up.

About half an hour later, the Taoist priest and Lu Chuan got up one after another. Everyone at the table ate while asking about what happened last night.

Lu Chuan and the Taoist priest talked hesitantly for a long time, and Xu Han finally understood. But to their surprise, Xu Han said nothing and only asked, "Are you two injured?"

Lu Chuan immediately responded, "No, it was fine. We killed them all without any fighting."

As he spoke, he actually sounded a little proud. Seeing this, the Taoist priest kicked Lu Chuan under the table.

Of course Xu Han saw this obvious action, but she remained quiet and said nothing.

What to say? How to say? They didn't do anything unforgivable. From the perspective of the country, it is actually a good thing.

However, from the perspective of a wife, Xu Han did not support it. After all, Lu Chuan was the pillar of the family, and Xu Han did not want anything to happen to him.

But we cannot ignore Lu Chuan's mood. Xu Han thought that Lu Chuan should be very happy and feel a sense of accomplishment in this sneak attack on the enemy camp!

Lu Chuan has already given a lot for this family. The only time he did something dangerous for himself, Xu Han couldn't catch him and scold him again!

Lu Chuan is not an accessory. He has his own ideas and things he wants to do. Xu Han should not stop him. As his wife, she should support him.

After learning the details of the incident, Grandpa Zhao laughed and said, "Finally, we have seen the light. I hope General Qin can drive the enemy away as soon as possible."

Xu Han also agreed, "Yes! Our lives will be better from now on."

The matter was just passed by, and on the third day, as expected, the message sent back by Yunhua was received.

From every word, one could tell that he couldn't conceal his excitement. He was extremely proud of what Lu Chuan and the Taoist priest had done and only regretted that he had not been involved.

At the same time, news also came about the results of the previous war. The enemy had lost all their food and supplies, and the number of casualties was as high as over 70,000. Although our army also suffered heavy losses, because we had made sufficient preparations before, they were nothing compared to the enemy.

Although Lu Chuan and the Taoist priest had some understanding of the enemy's casualties after the war, they couldn't help but gasp when they heard this number. They didn't expect so many people to die in this war.

Xu Han also felt very sorry when she heard it. So many lives were lost just like that. How could it not be regrettable?

Isn't peace good? Why do we have to fight?

Since she couldn't understand it, she simply gave up. After expressing her regret, Xu Han immediately returned to her normal life.

It is the summer planting season now, and I am so busy that I don’t have time to worry about what will happen next.

And now the troops have withdrawn, the enemy has been driven away, the crisis has been resolved, and everyone is in a much better mood.

The resolution of the crisis means that there will be no war in the land where they live for the time being. If there is another war, it will definitely be decades later.

It can't be that the enemy has just been repelled and then fought back, right? If that were the case, there would be no need for the Yuanqing Kingdom to struggle, and it would be better to just hand over the country to others!

Of course, the new emperor would definitely not tolerate such a thing to happen. Not only the new emperor, but also General Qin and the people of Yuanqing State would not do so.

Life will only get better and better in the future, and everything will slowly return to normal. Then Xu Han will start working hard to make money.

From now on, everything has to be arranged. The orchard, chicken and duck farming, and land reclamation cannot be left behind.

When Xu Han thought of this, she became extremely excited. It was finally time for her to show her talents. In the future, she must make a lot of money so that she could live a good life with servants around and no worries about food and clothing.

Summer is always the most difficult time. After summer planting is over, everyone in the family loses weight.

In order to reward herself and everyone else, Xu Han decided to make something delicious to compensate everyone.

This is the season for eating lobsters. Because of the disaster, no one has eaten them for a long time.

In the past two years, the ecosystem had not yet recovered, and there were very few lobsters and snails in the river. We didn't eat them much, mainly because we couldn't catch them even if we wanted to eat them.

We did have a meal last year, but there were very few lobsters. Lu Chuan and the Taoist priest went to several ponds and only managed to catch about five kilograms of lobsters. No one enjoyed the meal to their heart's content.

Snails reproduce quickly, and I ate them two or three times last year.

Just after finishing the summer planting this year, the Taoist priest clamored to go catch lobsters.

Early in the morning, the whole family went out, each holding tools and buckets, chatting and laughing as they walked on the road to catch lobsters.

A lot of tools were prepared for catching lobsters, and it looked like everyone was ready for a big job. Several people took six wooden barrels, and the Taoist priest even threatened that he would not go home until he caught six full barrels.

Grandpa Zhao said with a smile, "Hahaha, if you can't catch enough, just stay in the mountains by yourself. I won't be there to accompany you."

Ze'er also joined in the fun and said, "I won't stay either. There are too many mosquitoes in the mountains. I don't want to feed them."

The Taoist priest was dissatisfied when he heard this, "Can you please stop saying discouraging things? I haven't even started yet and you're already saying this. Really, don't you have any confidence at all? We have to believe in ourselves. With so many of us, can't we catch enough fish with these six buckets?"

As the Taoist priest spoke, he made a cheering gesture to encourage everyone. Somehow, when Xu Han saw the Taoist priest like this, she inexplicably thought of the pyramid scheme leader in her previous life. The Taoist priest looked exactly like the leader in her previous life! !

Lu Chuan replied at the right time, "Maybe we can really catch six full buckets today. When I went up the mountain a few days ago, I saw a lot of lobster holes in the pond."

After hearing what Lu Chuan said, the Taoist priest said proudly, "Look, look, you still don't believe it!"

Everyone arrived at the place chatting and laughing. Lu Chuan and the Taoist priest were the first to roll up their pants and go down to dig out the shrimp holes.

Xu Han and Grandpa Zhao took their two children to a shady place and started fishing for shrimps.

Two different methods of catching lobsters leave the lobsters in the pond with nowhere to escape.
