Chapter 225 Twins (1)
Sometimes ignorance is actually a kind of happiness. On the contrary, the more you know, the more trouble you get. After reading the materials Han Jianming gave her, Yuxi felt that the road ahead was long. She had already been mentally prepared for the harsh environment in the border town, and she was not someone who couldn't bear hardships, but she never thought that Yunqing's life would be in danger at any time. It's okay to risk one's life in a war, but one has to be assassinated from time to time. From the information given by Han Jianming, Yuxi learned that Yunqing had been assassinated more than ten times. Fortunately, she also asked why Qin Zhao didn't send someone to assassinate Yunqing. It turned out that Qin Zhao didn't use this method, but that the assassination was unsuccessful. up.
Yuxi asked: "Brother, do you think I will be assassinated in the future?" She asked why it was only reported that Yunqing had killed so many people, but there was no news about his wife and children. In such a situation, it's strange that Yunqing's wife and children can survive. You know, when she died in her previous life, the Song family was still fine!
Han Jianming was mentally prepared for such a difficult situation for Yunqing, which was why Yan Wushuang hid in the dark. It's really the Song family's methods that are too vicious, Yunqing's ability to survive until now is his ability: "The goal of these people is Yunqing, as long as you are more careful, nothing will happen." Want to get a high return , Naturally, there is a risk.
Yuxi knew that it was unrealistic to all point to Han Jianming. But there is only Zijin by her side, and Zijin is a person, not a god, so it is impossible to take care of her all the time. Yuxi pressed down these thoughts and asked Han Jianming: "How did the elder brother get these materials?" These materials are too neat, and it is impossible to obtain them in such a short period of time with Han Jianming's ability.
Han Jianming coughed and said, "I have my own way."
Seeing this, Yuxi didn't ask any more questions. When it was time to speak, Han Jianming would naturally say, "Brother, what did the Xinglong Escort Bureau say?"
Han Jianming said: "We are still negotiating." The price could not be negotiated.
Yuxi thought for a while and said: "Brother, the road is not smooth, and I have to bring more things. It doesn't matter if you spend more money, the most important thing is safety." Bulky furniture is not brought, but jewelry and medicinal materials are all I must bring it, and there are books and other miscellaneous things. No matter what, there should be more than 20 cars. The distance is far away, and the risk of adding more things is much higher, so it is reasonable for the other party to bid higher.
Han Jianming nodded and said: "You don't need to worry about this, I know it well. Don't worry too much, I will transfer some people from the mansion then."
Yuxi hesitated for a while, and finally said what was in her heart: "Brother, I want to ask my second sister-in-law to go to Lu's house to borrow some guards." There are too few good guards in the Han family, and half of these people were brought by Han Jianye Let's go, half to protect Han Jianming. The rest of them are fine against ordinary people, but not enough against those bandits. The guards of the Lu family are different. It is said that many of them have been on the battlefield, and it is definitely not a problem to deal with those bandits.
Han Jianming said: "Didn't you hire escorts? These people are enough to protect your safety." Going to Lu's house to borrow someone for use is quite embarrassing.
Yu Xi doesn't care about shame or not, what she wants is her own safety: "Brother, although Xinglong Escort Bureau has a good reputation, but in this world, who knows if the people inside will have a wrong heart. The things I brought this time are only Jewelry and medicinal materials are worth tens of thousands of taels of silver. Those people got malicious and snatched things on the way and fled, and then there is nowhere to find them crying?" If she brought something worth a thousand taels, don't worry , but this time the things she brought add up to a lot of money, who knows if these people will be blinded by the money. It is the most stupid thing to pin your hope on other people's conscience. As for the guards of the Lu family, Yuxi, they are not worried at all. The wives and children of these guards are all staying in the Lu family, so it is impossible for them to have disagreements.
After hearing Yuxi's words, Han Jianming couldn't help but asked, "You've been buying medicinal materials all this time? What are you buying so many medicinal materials for?"
Yu Xi said: "There is a lack of medical care in border towns,
Feel free to buy more. "Yuxi didn't buy all kinds of medicinal materials. She mainly bought some valuable medicinal materials, such as musk, bezoar, ginseng, fritillaria, velvet antler, bear bile, etc. Of course, supplements such as cordyceps and bird's nest are also indispensable.
Seeing that Yu Xi was buying medicinal materials in a big way, Qiu Shi also gave Yu Xi most of the valuable medicinal materials in her private treasury. Seeing this, Ye Shi and Lu Xiu also gave her a lot. In addition, Yuxi bought it herself, and there are only a few large boxes of Guangzhou medicinal materials.
Han Jianming nodded and said, "If you really feel uneasy, then you can go!" It would be safer to have more capable people guarding the place.
After seeing off Han Jianming, Yuxi went to find Lu Xiu. Yuxi said sincerely: "Second sister-in-law, it's a long journey to the northwest this time, and the road is not peaceful. If there is no reliable person around me, I won't be able to sleep well at night."
Lu Xiu thought that Yuxi had helped her a lot over the years, so she hesitated for a moment before nodding her head and agreed: "Fourth sister, I will ask my father when I get home tomorrow and I will give you an answer." Man, this can only be done with her father's consent. But it's just a borrowing. These people sent Yuxi safely to the northwest and came back. Her father should not refuse.
Yu Xi smiled and said, "Thank you, Second Sister-in-law."
The two of them were talking when they heard a servant girl coming from outside and said, "Big happy event, Second Madam, great happy event, the concubine gave birth to twins."
Yuxi was stunned, twins? How is this going? Yuchen had both sons and daughters in her previous life, but she didn't have twins! Many things are really different.
Lu Xiu stood up with a smile, and said, "This is a happy event. Yuxi, let's go to the upper court with the second sister-in-law. The old lady will definitely be very happy when she hears the news."
Yu Xi nodded with a smile: "It's really a happy event."
When the old lady heard that Yuchen had given birth to twins, she couldn't stop laughing from ear to ear: "My Yuchen is a very lucky person!" Twins, this is a good omen!
When everyone heard this, their expressions were very delicate. Wen's and Yu Rong's concentration was almost weak, and both of them couldn't help looking at Yu Xi, seeing the standard smile on Yu Xi's face, they both felt that she was too good at pretending.
Back in Tao Ranju, Zisu looked at Yuxi cautiously, and was relieved to see that her expression hadn't changed much.
Yuxi laughed and said: "Why? Are you afraid that I will be sad?" Speaking of which, Yuchen is really lucky, as if all the good things in this world have been taken up by her. And her? It seems that all the unlucky things in the world have been taken up by her. She and Yuchen are really two extremes.
Thinking of this, Yuxi rubbed her temples, isn't it unlucky? The married girls are all worried about whether the future mother-in-law and sister-in-law will get along well, and whether the sister-in-law will be deliberately nasty. What about her? What she worries about is whether she will also be assassinated in the future.
Sister Quan interjected at this time: "Girl, life is too smooth is not a good thing." Too smooth, once something happens, you may be helpless. Unlike her own girl, who has experienced everything, there is nothing that can hit her.
Yuxi couldn't laugh or cry: "Nurse Quan, listening to you, it seems that I have experienced so many unlucky things, but it is a good thing. I believe, how many people hope to have a smooth life like the third sister!" Similarly, they will not Some people hope to be unlucky like her.
Mother Quan said: "Miss, thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi." Yuchen is well now, not necessarily in the future. And my daughter is not well now, but she will be well in the future.
Yuxi laughed: "Mama is really good at comforting people. Speaking of it, I really can't bear to let Mama go back." Telling Qiu that Mama Quan is not in good health is an excuse, but Mama Quan is in good health. It's just that Mammy Quan doesn't want to travel around anymore, she just wants to live a happy old age in Anshun.
Sister Quan said: "Girl, I was just about to tell you about this. It just so happens that there is someone here, and I think it's quite appropriate."
Yuxi became interested in this all of a sudden: "Mother, tell me about it." There must be something special that can make Madam Quan fall in love with her.
The person Nanny Quan recommended to Yuxi was surnamed Qu, who used to work in the Shangfu Bureau, and was released three years ago. It's just that she is not as lucky as Madam Quan. The brothers and nephews in the family are all wolves and tigers. No one really wants to give her a pension and die. They all want to plot her money. There is no way to survive in the palace until it is released. After staying in her hometown for more than a year, she saw that her natal family members were unreliable, so she simply returned to the capital, hoping to find a good job as an errand for her natal family who would support her until the end of her life.
Yuxi couldn't believe it: "Have you found a suitable family for so long?"
Sister Quan smiled and said, "I'll be thinking about finding a suitable home for a while, it's not that easy. Besides, she works in the Shangfu Bureau, so she's different from me." Sister Quan can make medicinal meals and can help others Regulating the body, I don't know how many people have invited her for this ability! And Nanny Qu is in the Fashion Bureau, and the Fashion Bureau is in charge of clothes and accessories, and is not popular.
Yuxi asked: "Is it reliable?"
Sister Quan said: "Miss, don't worry, if it's unreliable, I won't recommend it to the girl." Yu Xi is considered her apprentice, and she will not harm Yu Xi no matter what.
Yuxi asked again worriedly: "Will she go to the northwest with me?" When many people mentioned going to the Northwest, they immediately refused. No, Qiu Shi has not yet found a suitable mother in charge and cook.
Sister Quan said: "If I come forward, she will agree to go." Seeing Yuxi's puzzled face, Sister Quan said: "I helped her in the palace before." It's not just that simple, she is Saved the opponent's life.
Yu Xi nodded and said: "Then I will trouble Mom." The mother is in charge, and the rest is the cook. But if you really can't find it, Yuxi plans to buy one and forget it. If it doesn't work, then I'll cook it myself.
Just as she was thinking about something, Cai Die came over and said, "Girl, the old lady just said that everyone in the mansion will go to attend the three baptisms of His Highness and the Little Princess in three days' time." Among these people, Yu Yu was naturally included. Hee inside.
Yu Xi nodded and said: "I know." (to be continued)
