The Widowed Mother, a Valiant General

Yu Mingchuan nodded. He actually used his left hand to pick up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of mutton and put it in his mouth. He also picked up some pickles and ate them together.

"How much pickles do we have?" Xue Yan had also learned Yu Mingchuan's eating style, but it was still somewhat difficult to swallow.

"Only a few are left."

On the other hand, Yu Mingchuan acted as if he was eating an ordinary meal. He put down his chopsticks, picked up a piece of spaghetti, and took a bite. He then continued to eat his food with his chopsticks, not letting go of Lu Qing.

Helpless, Lu Qing could no longer be bothered with him. She wanted to eat. After running for a whole day, she had become extremely hungry. Even if she wanted to die, she had to be a full and dead ghost.

Not long after, the three of them finished the steamed bread with lamb and millet noodles. The old man brought over a few jars of hot goat's milk, and Lu Qing quickly grabbed it and drank it. The steamed cake was truly choking.

The others also drank their goat's milk. After Yu Mingchuan finished eating, he used a cup of water to rinse his mouth before pouring another for Lu Qing to rinse her mouth with.

Lu Qing looked at Xue Yan with a puzzled expression. This cup was used by Yu Mingchuan, how did he give it to her?

Xue Yan's eyes moved slightly. Yu Mingchuan, whom he knew, had never used the same thing with anyone else.

"Follow me back to the commander-in-chief's residence."

Her red lips moved, Yu Mingchuan was already starting to get impatient.

Lu Qing quickly took the cup and avoided the area where Yu Mingchuan had used it. After quickly washing her face, she stood beside him.

Yu Mingchuan started to walk out. Lu Qing was hesitating on whether or not to follow, but Han Shuo was still here.

However, Xue Yan signaled her with his eyes. Han Shuo had his care, so he told her to hurry over.

Clenching his fist, Lu Qing braced himself and trotted to keep up with Yu Mingchuan.

Han Shuo was about to shout out from the back, but Xue Yan covered his mouth.

"Stop messing around, your mother will be fine."

The sky had already darkened.

Yu Mingchuan took big strides, and Lu Qing ran for a while before catching up to him. The two walked on, one in front and the other behind. On the way, they encountered quite a few soldiers, so they avoided them as if they didn't see them.

Lu Qing curled his lips. "This is your Lieutenant. Why are you pretending not to see him when you meet him or not? Why are you hiding when you haven't seen him!"

However, Yu Mingchuan did not seem to mind. Soon, they arrived at a tall wall that was also compacted with clay.

There was no moon tonight, so Lu Qing couldn't clearly see what kind of building it was. All he knew was that Yu Mingchuan had brought her into this courtyard wall, through two courtyards, and into a relatively comfortable house.

Yu Mingchuan lit the candles in the room, and Lu Qing realized that this should be Yu Mingchuan's bedroom. The inner room was for sleeping, and on the left was a small room that looked like a bathing room.

"What are you waiting for, help me undress."

Yu Mingchuan stood at the side of the bathroom with his arms outstretched, waiting for Lu Qing to come over.

Lu Qing quickly walked over and began to study the buckles of Yu Mingchuan's armor. After fumbling around for a long time, he finally undid one of the shoulder armors. Fortunately, he found the trick to it, and it got down much faster.

Yu Mingchuan didn't seem to be in a hurry, he just stared at Lu Qing with his damn eyes, as if he was watching a good show.

After taking off the armor, Yu Mingchuan was clad in thin cotton clothing. However, Lu Qing could feel a wave of heat coming from this layer of cotton clothing. It seemed that this person was relatively resistant to cold.

The sound of footsteps came from outside the door. Lu Qing hastily dodged to the side and saw two soldiers carrying two large buckets of water each.

After they entered, both of them lowered their heads. After pouring the water into the bath barrel, they lowered their heads and went out.

After going back and forth a few times, the bath barrel was filled with hot air and was about to be filled with water.

After that, Yu Mingchuan instructed the two not to come over and closed the door.
