I Woke the Sick and Disabled Prince on Our Wedding Night Chapter 141 Facing the Enemy

141 Facing the Enemy
“Take one and deliver the transfer order tonight!” Pei Qian raised his hand and handed the box he had just obtained from Gao Xuwei to Qian He. “Then continue to strengthen the protection of the camp. We can’t just wait for others to save us.”
Qian He immediately turned around and left to handle the matter!
This time, Pei Qian’s instructions were different from before. They were orders! Moreover, he didn’t hide the crisis and predicament the refugee camp was facing. Everything was clearly exposed to everyone. If they wanted to survive, they had to be united and avoid dragging others down!
After the initial fear and uneasiness, the refugees quickly calmed down. Whether they were willing or forced, they began to cut wood, dig ditches, and reinforce the fortifications under the arrangements of those guards.
In order to facilitate the control of the entire refugee camp, Pei Qian didn’t distribute the rations that Gao Xuwei had brought over like before. Instead, he distributed them in a concentrated manner.
After all the refugees finished their work for the day, they could receive a ration.
The effect of this arrangement was very obvious. At the very least, the refugees were more motivated to work!
Originally, according to Qian He’s previous instructions, Lin Suisui and the others didn’t need to arrange for people to participate in those tasks. However, Mrs. Luo mentioned at night that if none of them helped, it would be too uncharitable. Therefore, in the end, Wu Liu, the others, and Mrs. Luo’s family arranged for two men to go out and work every day. This was to close the distance between them and the other refugees in the refugee camp. Secondly, it would be more convenient to obtain some information that they couldn’t obtain otherwise.
They said that the refugees would participate in the construction work, and when they assigned work, the officials arranged it very reasonably. Therefore, from the next day onwards, many women also joined in digging and moving wood.
Seeing that they had nothing to do, Lin Suisui, Fang Liu, and Mrs. Luo followed the general’s request and received a task to set up traps.
The so-called trap was to dig a deep trench outside the first fence and sharpen the surrounding tree trunks into it. Then, they would lay grass mats on it to cover it with floating soil. This way, when a wolf pack came over, they would step on it and fall down before being pierced by the sharp tree trunk below.
The mission of Lin Suisui and the other women was to use the withered grass harvested from the surroundings to make straw mats. Lin Suisui didn’t know how to weave straw mats, but she knew how to cut grass.
Lu Ze originally planned to follow her, but Lin Suisui rejected him.
At this moment, the entire refugee camp was busy. Even if the others wanted to cause trouble, they didn’t have the time to do so. In addition, she, Mrs. Luo, Fang Liu, and the others were cutting grass in the surroundings. Under the protection of the surrounding soldiers, nothing serious would happen.
Besides, she was not a weak little girl. She couldn’t ask Lu Ze to follow her everywhere she went!
Although he was unwilling, Lu Ze also understood that Lin Suisui’s words made sense. Therefore, after instructing her to be careful, he was brought away by Pei Qian to help out!
It was indeed snowing heavily and there was very little prey around, but if they could encounter the wild wolves scattered everywhere, it would be a good supplement!
Pei Qian naturally wouldn’t let Lu Ze’s outstanding hunting ability go to waste.
Therefore, the mission Lu Ze was given was to bring a small group of soldiers into the mountain to search for prey, especially the traces of those scattered wild wolves!
Ever since Mrs. He and her daughter’s incident, most of the remaining women in the refugee camp were quite polite to Lin Suisui. Even if they didn’t care about Lin Suisui’s good medical skills, just based on the fact that Pei Qian valued Lu Ze, they tried their best to please Lu Ze’s only family member!
Even if they didn’t consider the outcome of Mrs. He and her daughter, just by looking at how well Mrs. Luo’s family was doing, who wouldn’t be envious?!
“Madam Liu, you’ve been working for so long. Rest for a while!”
At first, everyone wanted to curry favor with Lin Suisui, but after interacting with her for the past two days, most people’s impressions of her had changed drastically.
Because her image was too different from the rumors.
Who said that she was high-maintenance and difficult to please? Who said that she relied on men…
If that was the case, wouldn’t she have complained about cutting grass all morning?!
Besides, how was her medical skills inferior to those of men?!
As the saying went, time reveals a person’s true colors. Now, everyone was very familiar with Lin Suisui! Sometimes, when it was not even time to rest yet, an older woman would urge her to rest at the side.
“That’s right. Madam Liu, your hands are used to treat illnesses and save people. Let us do this menial work! Don’t hurt your hands. When the time comes, your husband will feel sorry for you!”
Where there were many women, they couldn’t help but joke around.
Older women liked to make fun of these young women who had just gotten married. At first, Lin Suisui would subconsciously respond. After being teased a few times in a row, she gradually became more thick-skinned. Now that she was teased again, she knew that she should just keep quiet.
She should not say anything in response!
“Speaking of which, you two are both capable people. When we reach the base safely in the future, your husband might really get a high-ranking position from the higher-ups!”
After the Du family’s auntie and the others joked around, the topic naturally shifted to future arrangements.
She said to Lin Suisui enviously, “When my eldest son came back yesterday, he even said that we would be conscripted.
I’m very worried now. Although there hasn’t been a war in the north for a long time, it’s close to the barbarians. What if a war breaks out?!”
“You’re thinking too ahead! In my opinion, we don’t even know where we’ll be tomorrow, but you’re already thinking about the future!
If we can’t survive this calamity, we’ll die in the wolves’ stomachs! It’s better to cut more grass and drink more soup at night!”
Before Mrs. Du could dwell on it, she was interrupted by a woman in a brown dress beside her. She carried a large bundle of grass over and threw it in front of Mrs. Luo and the others, who were making straw mats. Then, she added, “So what if it’s a conscription? Someone has to fight that war! If the Imperial Court really distributes land to us in the future, we have to work hard to defend it!”
