Chapter 213 Change (3)
April is the season when peach blossoms and apricot blossoms are in full bloom.
Yu Xi walked in the garden and said, "It's a pity that there are no peach blossoms and apricot blossoms here, only green vegetables." If there are peach blossoms and apricot blossoms, they can be used to cook porridge, take a bath, or make tea.
Mother Lan, who was holding jujube, heard Yuxi's regret, and said, "Ma'am, do you have time to make peach blossom tea?" This peach blossom tea is not made by collecting it and drying it in the sun. It takes a lot of work to make peach blossom tea that looks good. It's not that Yuxi can't make good peach blossom tea, but that she simply doesn't have the time.
Zijin was on the side, pursing her lips and smiling.
Mother Qu came in from the outside and said: "Madam, the Fu family has sent an invitation to invite Madam to the third girl's birthday banquet." Now that she has left the country, she can drink and have fun.
Yuxi accepted the post, looked at the date, nodded and said, "Tell the person here, that **** will definitely go." For the sake of Fu Tianlei's deep friendship with Yunqing, she will go.
Zi Jin said with great interest: "Madam, I heard that Fu Jian wanted Fu Tianlei to marry the second wife, but Grandma Fu disagreed after she found out, so there was a lot of tension over it."
Yuxi smiled and asked: "Who did you listen to? Is it Yu Zhi or Hongqi?" good.
Zi Jin curled her lips and said, "No, it's Yu Zhi." Yu Zhi was fine in Yun Mansion on weekdays, and like Master Yang, he also liked to go out and wander around. Yuxi took advantage of his hobby and asked him to go outside to find out the news.
In fact, for Yu Xi, Fu Jian was a bit too much. It's not that the Chen family can't have children, so they forced Fu Tianlei to marry the second wife. Even if he really wanted his grandson to let Fu Tianlei take a concubine, he would bully no one in the Chen family, otherwise how dare he make such a request. Like her sister-in-law Ye Shi, it was because everyone knew that she could not give birth that the Ye family agreed to take the second wife. Otherwise, Mrs. Ye would never agree to this request.
Zijin snorted coldly and said, "I heard that when Fu Tianlei proposed marriage before, he swore that he would only marry Mrs. Chen for the rest of his life. Now, hmph, so if this man's words can be believed, sows can also climb trees." I despise this kind of A man who doesn't believe what he says.
Mother Lan said: "It's wrong to be in the right family. Once there is a problem, you have to swallow all the bitterness and tears." If the family is in the right family, the natal family will be able to stand out. The difference is too big, and her natal family is weak, so she can only endure the grievance.
Zi Jin felt that this made sense, nodded and said, "If Yu Zhi dares to do something wrong to me, Master will break his leg first without me saying anything." So, it is dangerous to marry someone who is equal to you. It is also much smaller.
Yu Zhizhen was also shot while lying down.
After walking around for a quarter of an hour, Yu Xi took Zao Zao back to the main courtyard. Zao Zao was very unwilling when she was carried down, so she held onto Yu Xi tightly and wouldn't let go.
Yu Xi smiled and said: "This girl is getting clingier." Even though Zao Zao was very clingy to her, Yu Xi still asked Mother Lan to carry her to Huo Changqing. Huo Changqing has already begun to select people, and after they are selected, they will go to Huaishuzhuang.
There was nothing to do that day, Yuxi took care of the housework, and went into the study to practice calligraphy. Before finishing a word, Zijin rushed in from the outside and said, "Madam, it's bad, our food was robbed by thieves."
Yuxi put down her pen and said: "Still so frizzy, if Jingbai and Meiyun follow suit in the future, what should I do? Go out, and then walk in slowly." It seems that before, Zijin was really too Pampered. If everyone below learns from Viola, the inner courtyard will not be in chaos.
Zijin walked out obediently, walked to the door, and said softly: "Ma'am, I have something to report." Next time, don't make the same mistake again. Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing.
Yu Xi said: "Come in!"
Zijin drooped her head and said in a very soft voice, "Madam, the more than 200,000 shi of grain that Han Baocai bought from Taiyuan, Shanxi Province were all stolen by bandits."
Yuxi was not flustered at all, and said: "Got it,
The general will take care of this matter, you don't have to worry. After finishing speaking, he bowed his head and continued to write his calligraphy.
Zijin hurriedly said again: "According to the people who came back, Manager Han Baocai was injured." Seeing Yuxi looking up at her, she hurriedly said: "But the injury is not serious, it's just some skin trauma."
Yu Xi was distracted just now, and a ball of ink dripped onto the white paper, this writing is useless. Yuxi glared at Zijin angrily, and said, "What do you have to say, you can't finish it in one breath? You have to say half a sentence and leave the other half!"
Zijin would definitely not say that she did it on purpose.
Seeing Yuxi bowing her head to practice calligraphy and ignoring herself, Zijin went back to the front yard depressed. I saw Master Yang lying on the rocking chair in Chaoshou corridor, squinting his eyes and humming a little song leisurely.
Yuxi sat on the wooden bench next to her and said, "Master, our food has been robbed, and Madam is not in a hurry." She is not worried when more than 200,000 shi of food is gone, she should say that her wife is too Calm or big hearted!
Master Yang said slowly: "There is an old saying that is good, the emperor is not in a hurry for the eunuchs. You are in this situation now."
What Zijin dislikes the most is Master Yang's lazy attitude: "Master, if you have something to say, please say it well? Don't drop my book bag."
Master Yang opened his eyes, looked at the impetuous Zijin, shook his head and said: "I have been lying on the bed for so long, but I still haven't learned a lesson. I should lock you up in the Buddhist hall and copy the scriptures for a year. At that time, my temper will be worn out." draw."
After talking for a long time, Zijin wanted to stomp her feet even if she didn't mention the main point: "Master, if you don't tell me, I will leave."
Master Yang said helplessly: "You don't know how to use your brain to think. Could it be that the 100,000 troops in the Northwest are all eating dry food? They will let others steal their rations?" These bandits probably had enough to live. Dare to grab the food and grass of the Northwest Army.
Zi Jin naturally knew that the Northwest Army was brave and good at fighting, and it was not a disadvantage, so she said: "There is no transfer order, isn't it not allowed to send troops?"
Master Yang looked up at the sky, why did he accept such a stupid apprentice: "The children you give birth to in the future must not be like you." If the child is as stupid as the parents, he will really cry up.
Zijin really wanted to turn around and leave.
Master Yang said: "Do you know what sending troops is? To send troops is to send soldiers to fight and participate in the war. Yunqing sends people out to recover food. This is not called sending troops, you know?"
Zijin felt that there was no difference!
When Yun Qing heard the news, he personally went to the Dingbei Army, ordered 600 elite soldiers, and asked them to go to Long County to recover the food. These grains were robbed by bandits in Long County.
It was already late at night when Yunqing came back. Yu Xi walked over and asked, "Did you not have dinner?" Seeing that Yun Qing hadn't had dinner, Yu Xi hurriedly asked for the dishes to be served, and Mother Bai also fried a plate of leeks.
After eating, Yunqing took a rest and went to take a bath again. It wasn't until she was sleeping that Yu Xi asked Yun Qing: "Do you want to surrender without fighting?"
Yun Qing nodded and said: "If they obediently hand over the food, I will not pursue it. But if they dare not return the food, six hundred elite soldiers are not enough, and I will send another thousand more." Taking advantage of this time , he will definitely write a booklet and go to the capital. No matter what you do, you can't leave a handle. It's also because I have a ghost in my heart that I always want to make things better for dinner. If it was the same as before, Yunqing wouldn't care so much, and would directly send elite soldiers to wipe them out.
Yuxi smiled, Yunqing is now more careful than before.
Yun Qing said: "They all went on horseback, and they can reach Long County in at most ten days. If there is no mistake, the food should arrive in mid-May."
Yu Xi frowned and said: "It's already April, and the imperial court has only allocated 500,000 taels of silver, which is not enough to pay the army, so I will write a booklet to collect money." People don't move much." I don't know if it was because I was hurt last year, so this year I just made a small fuss, and there is no large army.
Yunqing is much more familiar with the Beiyao people than Yuxi: "No movement, it is not necessarily a good thing, these people may be planning a bigger conspiracy." Yunqing is not afraid of the Beiyao people's army coming to attack. What he is most afraid of is having a traitor, this is the most terrifying and hardest thing to guard against.
Regarding the traitor, Yuxi also expressed that there was nothing she could do: "General Zhao and General Fu can rest assured." General Zhao, in particular, may have his own thoughts, but he will never do such a thing as colluding with the enemy and treason . It's not that General Zhao is great or noble, but that his wife, children and family are all here.
Yun Qing said: "If your plan succeeds, and I become the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, I will definitely wipe out the northern exiles."
Yuxi's heart was aghast, and she hurriedly said: "Being killed on this battlefield is not as good as others, and there is nothing wrong with being killed. But those women, children and children cannot be killed. Killing those women, children and children who cannot resist is too cruel. And it's not good for your reputation." In his previous life, Yun Qing was criticized for killing captives, and for massacring cities, women, children and children were all killed. Yuxi can't let this happen again.
If it was before, Yunqing would definitely refute, or would not take Yuxi's words to heart. But now that he is a father himself, some views have changed: "Listen to you, I will not kill women, children and children who are unable to resist in the future." If they resist, they will still be killed.
With these words, Yu Xi was relieved a lot.
After talking about the business, Yunqing said: "It's late, go to sleep!" Yunqing used to often suffer from insomnia, and even when he fell asleep, he would have nightmares. Although I sleep lightly and wake up easily, my sleep is much better than before. Every time I lie in bed, I can fall asleep very quickly.
Yu Xi nodded and said, "I'll blow the lamp."
He got up and turned off the lamp, and went to bed without going back to his own place, and went directly into Yunqing's arms. Yuxi has always been very reserved about the matter of husband and wife, and has never taken the initiative. This is also because she has received an orthodox education since she was a child, and these things cannot be let go. To be so active today is already the ultimate.
It was rare for Yuxi to take the initiative once, Yunqing naturally gave her face, but the next day, Yuxi slept until the sun was high before getting up. R8
