Chapter 138 Ransom
In the evening of the second day, Mr. Xia sent someone a message, saying that he was willing to stay and assist Yunqing for a while.
Yun Qing was very relieved when he got the news. With the help of Mr. Xia, he can save a lot. Most importantly, by getting things sorted out before the recruits arrived, he would have time to train them.
Back home, Yun Qing said to Yu Xi: "I want Yu Zhi to enter the barracks, what do you think?" Yu Zhi belongs to Yu Xi, and if you want Yu Zhi to go to the barracks, you must get Yu Xi's consent.
Yu Xi was a little helpless, Yu Zhi didn't want to go to the military camp, but Yun Qing took the initiative to invite her, Zi Jin wanted to join the military camp but had no chance: "I have no objection, but I'm worried that Yu Zhi won't agree."
Yun Qing said, "I'll ask him."
Yu Zhi knew Yunqing's intention and immediately refused. Under the influence of Master Yang, Yu Zhi had no intention of defending his family, defending the country and building a career. He only wanted to live his own life well. No matter what Yun Qing said, it didn't make sense to him.
Yun Qing could only go back to the backyard in frustration.
Yu Xi smiled and said: "Yu Zhi can't do it, you can let Xu Wu and the others go back. I believe that if Xu Wu knows that he can go back to the barracks, he will definitely jump for joy." Xu Wu is more willing to go back to the barracks than to guard Yunfu , that's where he should be.
Yun Qing shook his head without even thinking about it, and said, "No, Xu Wu is leaving, who will come and see the nursing home."
Only then did Yu Xi tell Yun Qing that she was going to let Zi Jin replace Xu Wu, seeing Yun Qing's refusal, Yu Xi said: "Don't look down on Zi Jin, her ability is not inferior to Xu Wu." On martial arts , Xu Wu is not the opponent of Zijin.
Yun Qing shook his head and said, "Being good at martial arts doesn't mean she can protect the Yun Mansion well." It's not that he looks down on Zi Jin, but that Zi Jin is just a maid who can't calm down. Zijin couldn't afford such a big responsibility of looking after the home.
Yuxi knew that this kind of thing cannot be forced, and said: "Let Zijin learn from Xu Wu for a month first, and after a month, you can ask Xu Wu. If Xu Wu says that Zijin is competent, then hand over the job to Zijin. If Xu Wu Wu said that she is not competent, so let it go." Blindly being tough will not get good results. Only by letting Yunqing see Zijin's ability can he feel at ease.
Yun Qing was worried about Zi Jin, but Xu Wu, nodded and said, "Yes, if Xu Wu says she's fine, then let Xu Wu come back to me." One more is one more.
Yu Xi hummed, and asked: "It's been a day, do you think he will save the child?" It would take several days to reach the place set by the horse thief.
Yun Qing was silent for a while, and said: "If Qin Zhao can give them one hundred thousand taels of silver, the horse thief will release their mother and son when they get the ransom." , The next time someone is arrested and asked for a ransom, no one will pay the ransom.
Yuxi said softly: "I hope they will be safe and sound."
Yun Qing was very surprised, and said: "I thought you hated Mrs. Xu very much!" Yuxi and Mrs. Xu had a feud.
Yuxi laughed and said: "I hate her very much, but those two children are innocent." She really didn't care about Xu's death or not, because of the evil things Xu and the Xu family did, they punished the nine clans Can't be overemphasized. But the two children of the Qin family are innocent.
Yun Qing said: "Qin Huai grew up beside the marshal, and he is good in all aspects." Marshal Qin was afraid that Qin Zhao and his wife would lead Qin Zhao down, so he personally taught Qin Huai. Although Qin Huai is only ten years old, he is very good in character, talent and learning.
Yu Xi muttered: "No wonder." She had never met Qin Huai herself, but when Yun Qing told others about Qin Huai, they all said that he was a good boy. At that time, she thought that bad bamboos would produce good ones, and that was the reason.
Yun Qing said: "Yuxi,
If possible, let mother take the child to the front yard tomorrow to show Uncle Huo a look! "Huo Changqing still can't walk now. When Yuxi gave birth last time, he was still supported by someone.
Yuxi nodded and said: "Don't worry, as long as the weather is fine in the future, I will ask Mother Lan to take the child to Uncle Huo."
After hesitating for a while, Yun Qing said again: "When you are confinement, find a family for Yan Shi and marry her off!"
With a cry, Yuxi asked: "Uncle Huo, why would you want to marry Yan family?" Yan is Huo Changqing's person, and it may only be Huo Changqing's intention to marry Yan family.
After saying this, Yu Xi recalled the previous events and asked, "Is it about the Luo family, making Uncle Huo worried?" All the women died. Now, among the four women bestowed by the crown prince, only the Yan family is left.
Yun Qing nodded and said: "Uncle Huo said that Yan Shi had been with him anyway, so he gave her a way out." Huo Changqing was not a charitable person, and he didn't know how many people died at his hands. However, Huo Changqing wanted to give her a way out because of the kindness of a husband and wife for a hundred days, and Yan Shi had been with him for a long time.
Yuxi nodded and said, "I'll talk about this matter after I'm out of confinement." With Luo's matter in front, let alone Huo Changqing, even she was worried about Yan Yiyi. It's just that Yan Yiyi followed Huo Changqing, it's not easy for her to deal with it.
Yun Qing also told Yu Xi not to let her deal with it now.
Mr. Xia took the initiative to assist Yunqing to deal with the matter the next day. Mr. Xia has been with Marshal Qin for more than 20 years, so he is very familiar with these things. With such a good helper, Yunqing goes home earlier every day.
Yucheng is calm and calm, and Yuxi can sit at ease this confinement.
This day, Fu Da's nǎinǎi came to the door. Yuxi is very bored during confinement, and she likes to have someone come to chat with her the most. Even if she wasn't close to Fu Da's niǎinǎi before, she would be happy now: "Sister-in-law is here!"
Fu Da's nǎinǎi looked at Zao Zao, smiled and said: "This child looks really good." But he is not good, he is white and fat, just like a doll in a New Year painting, he feels festive when he sees it, and wants to hug him go home.
Yu Xi pinched Zao Zao's small fleshy face, and said: "Eat and sleep every day, and sleep and eat, the meat will grow vigorously." There was a look of disgust on her mouth, but there was a smile on her brows and eyes. Children can eat and sleep, and their health is good.
Fu Da Nǎinǎi said: "It is a blessing to be able to eat and sleep." After finishing speaking, he looked at Yu Xi's face as smooth as jade, and enviously said: "Not to mention the children, even the younger siblings are well-raised! Wait until the younger siblings are confinement Go out, and no one who sees will believe that you have given birth."
Everyone loves to hear such compliments, and Yuxi is also an ordinary person. Hearing this, he smiled all over his face and said, "Sister-in-law is over the top."
After a few gossips, Grandma Fu said to Yuxi: "General Qin took one hundred thousand taels of silver to redeem Xu's mother and son. One hundred thousand taels of silver, if you take it out, it's really worth it Money." All of their Fu family's belongings add up to less than one hundred thousand taels of silver, but Qin Zhao took them out without blinking. One can imagine how much money Qin Zhao should have.
Yu Xi smiled and said: "The Qin family has accumulated so many years, it is not surprising that they can get out one hundred thousand taels of silver." Yu Xi actually knew very well in her heart that Qin Zhao had a lot of money. It's just that these things are not something she and Yun Qing can pursue.
Seeing this, Grandma Fu's nǎinǎi stopped talking about the Qin family's affairs, and changed the subject: "Hey, my younger siblings don't know, but since my auntie knew that Miss Zijin had killed the enemy in the battlefield, she has been arguing with her lately that she wants to take care of her." Train your troops, and then go to the battlefield to fight."
Yuxi smiled and said: "It was because Yucheng was too dangerous at that time, so I agreed with Zijin to go to the tower to kill the enemy, and I also wanted to do my part."
Fu Da's mother also had a purpose in saying this: "I was worried that my aunt's mother would not understand my uncle, so I came here to intercede with you. Brother and sister, you must not promise her when the time comes!" God thought about leading troops to fight, what a deal! This barracks is full of men, so what's the matter with her going in alone as a woman. If you really let her go, you won't even think about getting married in this life.
Yu Xi chuckled lightly and said, "Even if I agree to this kind of thing, it's useless!" Seeing that Fu Da's mother was a little anxious, Yu Xi said with a smile: "Don't worry, I won't agree."
After getting Yu Xi's reply, Fu Da's mother was relieved.
After Grandma Fu left, Yuxi couldn't help shaking her head, this Fu Qingluo was too impatient. It is not easy for a woman to achieve something, so if she really wants to achieve something, she must do it step by step, rather than trying to achieve it in one step.
"Wow..." Zao Zao's crying interrupted Yu Xi's thoughts.
Yuxi unwrapped her swaddling clothes, seeing that she had either peed or stretched, she bit Zaozao's round face lightly, and said, "It's really a little pig, it's hungry again so soon." Fortunately, Yuxi's milk It's enough, otherwise I really can't supply this little guy.
After Zao Zao was full, Yu Xi said to Mother Lan, "Take the child and show it to Uncle Huo!" Since Yun Qing had spoken, she naturally wanted to do it.
Huo Changqing was very happy to see Zao Zao. Huo Changqing's injury was not healed yet, and he didn't dare to hold the child, so he looked at her seriously.
What responded to Huo Changqing was Zao Zao's sweet smile.
Huo Changqing liked it very much, and said, "This kid has such a nice smile." Everyone likes a cute kid.
Xu Wu, Xu Daniu and a few people came to see the baby immediately after they knew the child had been brought out. Don't look at Zao Zao was born more than ten days ago, but they haven't seen each other yet, only heard that Zao Zao looks like Yun Qing.
When Xu Daniu saw Zao Zao, he couldn't help exclaiming: "It looks so similar, it looks like it was printed in the same mold as the general."
Xu Wu scolded with a smile. Although the child looks like a general, he is much cuter than the general. The general has kept a straight face for many years, how can there be such a ridiculous smile.
With so many people watching, Zao Zao didn't show any timidity, and looked at everyone with a pair of big round and black eyes, very much together.
Xu Daniu wanted to hug him very much, so he immediately said to Mama Lan, "Can I hug you?" Such a cute child, no wonder the general couldn't bear to let go.
Mother Lan shook her head and said, "No way." These elders are very careless, it would be bad if they got hurt accidentally. Yunqing is the master, she has no way to refuse, she should not accept these people.
Xu Daniu was a little disappointed.
Seeing this, Mother Lan said with a smile: "The eldest girl is still too young, and I can give you hugs when she is older."
Xu Daniu immediately said cheerfully: "Then I will wait."
There was laughter in the room, and the atmosphere was particularly warm. When Huo Changqing saw it, a smile rarely appeared on his face.
