Chapter 1355: Chapter 1355: Sick to My Stomach
The servant finished speaking, still couldn’t help but gag twice. Ding Ge frowned deeply, "Is it really that ugly?"
The servant shook his head, "Master, the Gu Family is not ugly, it’s disgusting!"
In terms of features alone, the Gu Family could be considered exceptionally delicate, but the pustules on her face were too revolting, ruining her delicate features.
This servant was named Ding Changsheng, one of Ding Ge’s confidants. When it came to finding women, setting traps, and handling various personal matters, it was all done by Ding Changsheng. Ding Ge trusted him greatly.
But Ding Ge trusted his own eyes even more. He still wanted to see the Gu Family to see to what extent the Gu Family was disgusting before deciding whether to give up.
Qin San Lang observed Ding Ge’s actions and was furious, harboring an even greater intent to kill Ding Ge. He wouldn’t be satisfied until Ding Ge was dead.
Thud, thud, thud!
After distributing the military rations, the drums for the expedition began to sound. Nine soldiers pounded the big drum rhythmically for about fifteen minutes before stopping.
Next, General Guo shot the copper bead on the military flag, leading all the soldiers to kneel and worship the heavens and the earth. After the oath-taking, he pointed at Qin San Lang and said, "San Lang, carry the government army’s flag!"
General Guo originally didn’t want Qin San Lang to carry the government army’s flag to prevent him from becoming a target of jealousy and making the journey unsafe. But upon learning that Ding Ge had intentions to seize soldiers, he could only entrust the government army’s flag to Qin San Lang. This way, even if Qin San Lang defeated Ding Ge along the way and took his soldiers, it would be justified.
Seeing this, Ding Ge was so angry he wanted to kill Qin San Lang, cursing General Guo in his heart, "You dog, do you really think of that Qin as your own son, giving him all the benefits?"
Fine, let him have it. This leading troops requires ability. The Ding Family has money and invests silver for him to raise troops. This time he brought three hundred soldiers, three times the quota of the Military Office’s soldiers. Who has more troops than him?
The other Company Commanders of the Military Office all envied Qin San Lang, but they couldn’t bring themselves to be jealous. After all, Qin San Lang was much younger than them, practically of a younger generation, yet he had real skills and even gave them two chests of knife injury medicine. Having accepted his generosity, it wasn’t appropriate to be jealous and they gladly accepted Qin San Lang carrying the government army flag.
"Low-level General accepts the order!" Qin San Lang strode forward, raising the tall and heavy government army flag in one hand. This strength made Niu Dabao exclaim, "Haha, Company Commander Qin’s arm strength is truly impressive, admirable!"
Niu Dabao was big and burly, with a loud voice and amiable personality. Every time he spoke, he would laugh heartily. His tone made people feel very comfortable, and the Company Commanders nodded in agreement, "Indeed, among all the soldiers in He’an Prefecture, San Lang’s arm strength is the strongest."
"Onward!" General Guo shouted. Qin San Lang carried the military flag and led his soldiers out of the Military Office in Luan’an County.
"We march out, we march out, quickly pack up and hit the road!" General Guo’s personal soldier ran out, shouting to the military family’s dependents who were still rushing to make dry food.
Upon hearing this, everyone hurried to pack up. Mrs. Kuang, having the loudest voice, shouted, "Quickly pack up, put the elderly and children on the cart, and let’s go! Hurry up, Qiaozi’s wife, what are you dawdling for? Are you disabled? Are you waiting for everyone to carry you on the road?"
Qiaozi’s wife felt aggrieved, holding her mother-in-law in one hand and her baby in the other, "Why are you in such a hurry, madam? Look at Company Commander Qin’s wife, she’s still blocking the gate of the Military Office with her servants to meet her husband!"
Mrs. Kuang looked toward the gate of the Military Office upon hearing this and indeed saw Gu Jinli standing at the gate with Nanny Tao and Aunt Xiong, craning her neck to look out. As soon as she saw Company Commander Qin, she immediately waved into the Military Office, her face full of joy and delight.
Mrs. Kuang curled her lips upon seeing this. The Gu Family must be a bit silly to be this ugly yet come to meet her man, isn’t she just making her husband lose face?
"Ignore her, quickly pack up and let’s go!" Mrs. Kuang was busy and had no time for the spectacle, urging her relatives to hit the road.
"Husband, husband!" Gu Jinli was overjoyed, waving a small handkerchief at Qin San Lang, her face full of admiration and excitement greeting him. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
Then, all the soldiers running out of the Military Office stopped, looking at Gu Jinli, and then several retching sounds were heard, "Ugh, ugh!"
Among them was Ding Ge.
Ding Ge did not expect the Gu Family to be this disgusting, with her face full of pustules, as Ding Changsheng said, almost crawling with maggots.
However, Ding Ge was a deep schemer, afraid of being deceived. As he gagged, he turned to observe Qin San Lang’s demeanor, seeing him frozen in place, with an expression of disgust flashing across his handsome face, but quickly smiling at the Gu Family and waving her to go aside.
"Alright, I’ll wait for you over there. I roasted some beef for you, come and eat on the cart later," Gu Jinli said with a smile. After speaking, she laughed shyly, seemingly embarrassed, covering her face with a handkerchief and running away.
The cold wind howled, bringing a pungent rotten smell mixed with fragrance... it was the scent from the Gu Family.
For a moment, the retching sounds grew louder.
Oh God, this Gu Family not only looks ugly but also has a bad smell!
Ding Ge was nearly going insane. Damn it, the Gu Family is this disgusting yet dares to act coyly, what’s there to be coy about? It’s terrifying!
Ding Ge loved beautiful women and couldn’t stand ugly ones. The Gu Family’s features were quite nice, but the pustules on her face ruined it, making him nauseated.
Ding Changsheng said the Gu Family wasn’t like this before, only starting to develop pustules this year, and the Gu Family’s servants mentioned it could be cured. But with so many pustules, even if cured, it would leave countless scars! freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
A face full of scars, just thinking about it was nauseating.
As for her figure?
Haha, in the cold weather, the Gu Family dressed like a ball. Who knows if she’s fat or thin, maybe even a fat woman... Ugh, Ding Ge thought about it and felt nauseated again.
Qin San Lang, seeing this, had a stern face, loudly said, "My wife’s pustules can be cured!"
Ah, pfft, in Ding Ge’s opinion, Qin San Lang said this to save his already lost face, but seeing is believing, who would believe his words?
Hah, Ding Changsheng was right, that Qin is ruthless, willing to risk everything for money, even dealing with such a disgusting woman.
Ding Ge was utterly disgusted, but seeing Mrs. Cen, who was struggling to prepare to board the cart with a baby in her arms, lifted his spirits.
Although there was such a disgusting ugly woman like the Gu Family, having a delicate, beautiful woman like Mrs. Cen along for the journey wasn’t so bad.
Everyone was briefly nauseated, but with General Guo’s shout, they ran again, reassembling the troops. After running for 30 minutes, they got on the main road and followed the map route toward the northwest.
Due to the delay in departure, there was no rest at noon, and they kept marching until nightfall, finally reaching a high ground marked by the scouts to set up camp.
