's almost time to start planting again this year! If any of you guests feel you are more noble than the Emperor, then we will die, committing suicide to apologize to you. But when summer comes, the Em...Tao Hongying thought about it and felt a pang of heartache. She drank two cups of water in one gulp, then took her mother-in-law's arm and said, "Mother, what should we do This girl is too pitiful, too heartbreaking! Can we think of a way to help her"

Old Li was also silent.

Suddenly, she remembered when her husband had first passed away, and she was raising four children on her own.

Back then, she was like that girl, innocent and blameless yet facing constant scrutiny and criticism from a throng of people.

Wherever she went, people would give way to her, as if she were something dirty.

If someone can't handle it, help her out, and rumors will immediately spread that she's seducing people...

Over time, she became fierce, always with a cold face. She refused to accept kindness from others for fear of dragging them down.

It's better to suffer silently and bear the pain than to burden others with it.

But by then she was over thirty and had four sons.

But this coral maiden was in the bloom of youth.

I'm afraid the pain will be much greater. One moment of carelessness could ruin your life forever...

"If it's truly as you say, then even if this girl and Jia Yi are not meant to be, our family will still lend a hand." Li Lao Tai sighed and replied.

Tao Hongying immediately rejoiced and asked, "Mother, after all our persuasion, this girl finally agreed to accept some simple everyday items.

"Besides, this young lady is also sick. I was thinking of sending her two pills for wind-cold from the ones Fu Niang brought us. What do you think"

"Just keep an eye on things, " Lao Li said, not stopping her daughter-in-law from making arrangements. “Since you know this girl is strong-willed, just be a bit more careful.”

"Understood, Mother," Tao Hongying nodded. "Xia Qing told me on the way here that this young lady's house was burned down and all her relatives and friends have disappeared."

"She's well-fed in the field hospital, but the other women have nothing. I want to get her some inexpensive and practical items."

"Go ahead," Li Laotai replied, and Tao Hongying got up and went out.

Wenjuan and the others felt sorry for Coral Girl upon hearing this. Having nothing better to do, they went to help Tao Hongying too.

When Mrs. Wen saw that the house was quiet, she said to Old Madam Li, "Aunt, I see that Miss Coral seems to have some affection for Jia Yi."

She was just too strong-willed. She was afraid that her reputation would drag down Jia Yi's, and she was also afraid that people would say she was taking revenge under the guise of gratitude.

As for Jia Yi... he probably had some feelings, but as a young and inexperienced boy, he didn't know how to express his affection for the girl.

Xia Qing heard those women at the camp say that when the girl was recovering from her injuries, Jia Yi hired an older woman to take care of her and later bought food and supplements with money. But the girl refused them all.

Because many outsiders were gossiping, he was afraid that the girl might not like him and this incident might ruin her reputation.

"Avoiding both sides like this, isn't it just alienation..."

Mrs. Li's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she grabbed Mrs. Wen's hand, excitedly asking, "Are you saying that Jia Yi is also showing some signs of understanding, and has some feelings for this Coral girl"

Mrs. Wen smiled and nodded, "This is also what I guessed, but it should be about right."

"Sister-in-law, why don't we try to probe a little For example, let's send the things to the military camp later and have Jiagyi deliver them to Miss Coral. "

Marriages are lifelong events, so it's important for the two children to spend time together and get to know each other's personalities and character before making a decision.

"Yes, you make sense." Old Li slapped her thigh, "That's it! I'll go find Hongying. She has a quick temper, don't send the things over before everything is ready!"

After saying that, she stood up to leave. Mrs. Wen couldn't help but joke, "Auntie, you really don't mind that this girl is an orphan And there are rumors that she brings bad luck to her husbands..."

Old Mrs. Li swatted Mrs. Wen playfully and scolded with a smile, "Other people might say it's fine, but you, a learned woman with a head full of books, shouldn't be this foolish."

"What's wrong with the orphaned girl Our family used to be dirt poor refugees, chased like dogs all over the place. We all come from hardship, no one is more noble than anyone else."

"Talking about being a jinx again is even more ridiculous. When Zhen Sheng's father died, people said I was a widow-maker! "

It's all nonsense, look how good our lives are today!

"As long as the young lady is a good girl, our family will like her too!"

Having said that, she left in a flurry, leaving Mrs. Wen rubbing her arm and smiling.

Yueya ran into the yard and seeing her mother smiling so gently, asked: "Mother, why are you smiling secretly"

Mrs. Wen picked up her daughter and kissed her, "Because Mother is happy! These days have been so wonderful and blissful!"

Yuèyá'er didn't understand, but she hugged her mother and smiled, showing a few small white teeth...

In the Hailing army, Liu Yang and Jia Yi were eating lunch in a tent.

Liu Yang smiled slyly and pressed, "What did Aunt Four and Mrs. Wen say to Miss Coral this morning When will the engagement be finalized"

Jia Yi frowned, slowly picking at the rice in his bowl, mumbling, "There's been no talk of betrothal."

"You didn't say Why didn't you say anything!" Liu Yang was surprised, he tugged Jia Yi and asked, "I was still waiting for you to get married together, why aren't you in a hurry"

Jiayi threw down his chopsticks and bowl, "This isn't something I'm in a hurry about. I haven't even spoken to Miss Coral a few times, how can I be in a hurry"

He impatiently rolled up his sleeves and added, "Besides, Fourth Aunt said that Miss Coral is worried about her reputation being tarnished and dragging me down with it."

She even refused to help our family, let alone get engaged.

Liu Yang also fell into a dilemma, after much thought he said: "That girl seems rather stubborn, and her reputation is indeed somewhat… what should we do then Just let it be"

"I'm not urging you, I just think this girl is quite similar to you. Both of you have that kind of spirit. If you were to get married, your life together would surely be good."

Jia Yi recalled that day when the Coral Maiden was covered in blood, standing on the ship, as dazzling as a flower blooming in flames.

His heart suddenly beat faster. He quickly picked up his bowl and chopsticks and said, "Let's eat first. My grandmother is here. She must have a way. I'll ask her when I go back tonight!"

Liu Yang can't, this is indeed not something to worry about.

As the two men finished their meal and were about to begin their patrol, two parcels were brought in by a contingent of personal guards.

Jia Yi was surprised, and after understanding the situation, he felt a little embarrassed.

Liu Yang laughed heartily and pushed him out the door, "Go to the wounded camp quickly and deliver it to Coral. This is definitely an opportunity created by grandma for you!"

But Jiayì turned his head and still wanted to go into the tent.

Liu Yang refused to budge. Jia Yi was helpless and shouted, “I need to change my clothes, I’ve been training in the sand all day!”

Liu Yang let out a hearty laugh and then allowed it.

Soon, Yi changed into clean clothes and took two packages to the field hospital.

As soon as he entered the field hospital, he saw a few people gathered around a tent, pointing and whispering excitedly.

Inside the tent, there was a commotion, as if someone was shouting and cursing...ild couldn't poop and almost suffocated! You wailed and ran to my house, begging me for help!""Just a few good days, eating a few decent meals, and you, you brainless animal, are already strutting you...
