Xue Lin brought two boxes, one containing some medicinal materials, mostly snow lotus, cistanche deserticola, gastrodia elata and other northwest specialties, the other containing some skins, mostly wolf skins, and two fox furs, one fiery red and the other Then the snow is white and flawless.
"These two pieces were left to me. I want to make a cloak for Aqiang and Ajiao, just in time for winter." Mingyi pointed to the two pieces of fox fur.
These things were my uncle's wishes. Gao had no objection, but she looked at Mingyi with a slightly complicated expression, "Are you really planning to follow my uncle to the northwest?"
Your Majesty is a kindhearted person today and has never strictly ordered the families of the leading generals to stay in Beijing. However, it is bitterly cold in the northwest. It is not impossible for Jiaojiao not to join the army. What's more, she can speak well in front of the Holy Commander now.
"Of course I want to go!" Mingyi never thought of other possibilities, so she deserved it. "It's not just me. Now my brother has joined the Anxi Army. Your Majesty is considerate and has specially allowed him to take up the post after I get married. His Majesty also said that if you and dad want to, you can go to the northwest with me and my brother."
"Seriously?" Gao really didn't expect such a thing.
"Of course, His Majesty just said that, if my parents don't want to, they can continue to stay in Wangjing. After all, the bitter cold at the border is not as prosperous as Wangjing..."
"How can that be done? No matter how hard you are, what are you afraid of? Can you endure the pain of being separated from your flesh and blood, at the ends of the world? A family should be together! You kid, why didn't you tell me when you came home early? I made preparations early Ah! We have to choose someone to look after our shop and village, we have to take care of the etiquette, our relatives have to be informed, and... by the way, we have to tell your dad! His dad..."
Mrs. Gao kept talking, and Mingyi even interrupted to say, "There's no hurry, the wedding date is set for spring next year." As she was talking to herself, people rushed out in a hurry, leaving Mingyi alone. I can't laugh or cry.
"Princess, this box is specifically for you. What could it be?" Fanshuang held a box in her arms, her eyes filled with gossip.
What else could it be?Opening the box and looking at a few banknotes, a few silver ingots, and some broken silver inside, Mingyi realized in a funny way that she shouldn't be surprised.
Fanshuang, on the other hand, turned over the things again and again, unable to conceal her disappointment, "Only silver? Not even a letter? Governor Xue was quite sure that the princess knew what he had sent the silver for? But...how could he not even break the silver? Yes? Is Governor Xue trying to be poor, or is he really that poor? No, he is the Governor of Anxi, he is the biggest in the entire northwest, how can he be poor? "
Mingyi smiled and said nothing. Fanshuang had been managing money and accounting recently, and she felt a lot more comfortable, but she also became more and more obsessed with money.
"What is this? A piece of broken stone?" Fan Shuang finally took out something that was not silver from the pile of things. He took it in his hand and looked at it, but his eyebrows furrowed even more tightly.
Mingyi took it and took a look. She said it was a stone, but it was not real. It was prettier than other stones, with blue-green color, smooth and drop-shaped texture, and holes on the top. "I think it is a pendant."
"This is neither gold nor jade. Governor Xue just gave such a stone pendant to the princess?" Fan Shuang's eyes widened in shock. This Governor Xue... can't do it!Are you stingier than her? Mingyi was speechless, and there was no trace of dissatisfaction on her face. Instead, she smiled slightly and held the stone pendant in her palm, "Logically, we should return the gift."
The person Xue Lin sent to deliver the things had not yet left. He was treated to a meal and a drink by Haosheng. When he returned, he brought two large boxes full of gifts in return.
There were mostly food and supplies that could fit inside, as well as newly made clothes for Xue Lin, and a handwritten letter from Lin saw Juanxiu's handwriting on the letter and said that she liked the things he sent. She frowned and called Xu You over, "Didn't I ask you to send money? You did some more What?"
"You have such a stupid head, why don't you just give me a box of money? It's your first time to send something to your in-law's house. Can you be disrespectful? Fortunately, there are still some medicinal materials and skins that you usually beat. You can't use them anyway, so I'll make the decision. I packed it up and sent it away. I also threw in your piece of malachite along the way. The gift is light but the affection is heavy. You don’t have any money left to buy gold and silver jewelry now. If my sister-in-law asks about it later, please remember it. Tell her that you polished the malachite yourself..."
"Nothing!" Xue Lin glared at him.
"Alas! You, I'm not here for you? I've already married you. Why don't you marry someone who can sing harmoniously with you? Besides, I think this sister-in-law is pretty good, don't you think so too? Otherwise, why are you doing this? The child gave someone the key to Wangjing Mansion, and when he came back, he was thinking about asking for money to renovate the house, so he gave away all the remaining money in his hand? Lao Xue, what are you embarrassed to admit? A man should get married and a woman should get married. , what's more, you are an old bachelor in our Anxi army. Have you not heard that among these brothers in the army, who is not thinking about your life-long events? We have already discussed it. When you get married, the whole army will join in. Molecule, I will do it for you with great success..."
Before Xu You finished speaking, Xue Lin swung the knife over with a glance, "If you have any free time, why not think about the poor harvest in the fields this year and how to survive this winter? The court has too much to take care of itself. If you want to wait for the military pay to come to the rescue, that is It’s impossible. The people we sent to buy food haven’t heard back yet, so what should we do?”
A few words completely cut off Xu You's eloquence, and he sighed deeply, "If I had known that my sister-in-law had donated food to the court, we should have ventilated it earlier. We are a family after all, so we should be easier to talk to..."
Xue Lin was too lazy to talk to this guy whose head was somewhere, so he turned around and strode away.
"Hey! What are you doing?" Xu You asked anxiously behind him.
"Gather the army! Wasn't there a group of Di people who wanted to rob the village yesterday? Let's just retaliate and rob them!" When the words fell, the people were already several feet away.
"Wait for me, we can't do this without me..." Xu You shouted as he chased after him.
Mingyi didn't know this at all, she was very the morning, she would practice martial arts, cavalry and archery with Su Wenying, and in the afternoon, she would study the art of war. She also had to find time to help out at the newly opened Deji these days, she put all the medicinal materials she had hoarded to use. She set up a shed in front of the pharmacy to administer medicines and treat typhoid fever and other diseases for free, just because she was afraid that there would be another epidemic after the disaster.
Fu Ruixuan reciprocated the favor and mentioned Deji Hall several times outside. There were many people in Wangjing who had good ears and eyesight, and soon some drug stores followed his , many wealthy businessmen in Wangjing City have donated food, and various pharmacies have begun to apply medicine. The prince has asked officials to visit everywhere. For the time being, no one dares to go against the rules. For a while, everything seems to be on the right track, breaking the consequences of the disaster. of haze.
Compared to the people, there was a lot of turmoil in the imperial court. Now that the resettlement of the victims and relief work had come to an end, Emperor Chongning was freeing up his hands to investigate the granary case.
Mingyi is not very clear about these things, but just by listening to the rumors, he can tell that there will be a storm and there will be no peace.
However, if these beetles in the country cannot be eliminated, there will be endless the dream, this did not happen. I thought there was no prince involved and the officials were protecting each other. Those people used floods and other methods to deal with it, hoping that this would be a good !definitely is!
