Chapter 166

I don't know how to talk to Shu Manyao, but I am reluctant to waste this time with Shu Manyao, Yang Jianbai hesitated on the street for a while, but hurried home.

Shu Manyao was watching Jing Chun and Jing Chun do needlework, Xia Xi and Dong Du had already married a few years ago, and now the big girl next to her is Jing Chun and the four of them. Seeing Yang Jianbai coming back, Jingchun and the others hurriedly brought needlework to the outside to do it. Who doesn't know the maids in the house, Yang Jianbai and Shu Manyao have a very good relationship, if the couple are in one place, the maids can't go in without being summoned.

"I'm back early." Shu Manyao asked with a smile, Yang Jianbai nodded, reached out and touched her belly: "How do you feel today?" ”

"Didn't you just ask in the morning? It's been okay for the past two days, the children are very peaceful, and they don't make trouble at all. Shu Manyao said with a smile, carefully looked at his expression, and raised his eyebrows slightly: "What do you have to say?" ”

Yang Jianbai pursed his lips, didn't say a word, Shu Manyao didn't urge, only smiled and said: "Today is the seventh day of the new year, and it will be fifteen in a few days, the lantern festival in the capital has always been very grand, we have seen it in the lantern festival before, and I don't know if you remember the events of that year." ”

Yang Jianbai nodded hurriedly: "Naturally, I remember, I thought at that time, this little girl is quite bold, so many people go backwards, you have to squeeze forward, if you accidentally fall, it will be fatal." ”

"You saved me then." Shu Manyao took Yang Jianbai's hand and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, the two of us are also fateful, you saved my life, I saved your life, you say, the two of us now, are we making a promise to each other?" ”

"Count, I can't repay you for your life-saving grace to me in this life, I can only promise it with my body." Yang Jianbai looked at Shu Manyao and looked at Shu Manyao with a serious face: "In this life, as long as I live, I will let you live a good life, and do my best to let you enjoy all the glory and wealth." ”

said it too seriously, even Shu Manyao was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "I believe in you." We also knew each other at the Lantern Festival, this year's Lantern Festival is the first Lantern Festival after we got married, when the time comes, let's go to see the lanterns? ”

As for the Wang family's meeting, it was just that they knew each other's names, and they didn't know each other.

Shu Manyao originally thought that Yang Jianbai's yamen should have nothing to do that day, and he could accompany him to see the lanterns. But he didn't expect that he asked it, but Yang Jianbai didn't answer, Shu Manyao frowned slightly, and then pulled the topic to the first question: "Are you hiding something from me?" Is it a difficult thing to do? Can't you say? ”

Yang Jianbai was silent for a while before he spoke: "Man Yao, the war in Western Xinjiang has started again. ”

With just one sentence, Shu Manyao figured it out: "The emperor wants you to lead the troops?" ”

Yang Jianbai nodded, stretched out his hand and grabbed Shu Manyao's hand: "Don't be nervous, don't worry, the war in Western Xinjiang is far worse than that in Northern Xinjiang, the Khitan people in Northern Xinjiang are very strong and united, and the Tubo tribes in Western Xinjiang have their own thoughts and policies, and it is not difficult to deal with them." Moreover, the emperor also gave me a lot of soldiers and horses, and with the support of General Meng and others in the western frontier, I will definitely be able to pacify the western frontier very smoothly. ”

Shu Manyao's face turned pale, and he asked after a while, "What is the situation in Western Xinjiang now?" ”

Yang Jianbai didn't say anything, Shu Manyao reached out and pinched his arm: "You also know, I'm not the kind of timid person, if you don't analyze the situation for me now, I don't know the bottom in my heart, and I think crankily all day long, that's not good for my body." You have made it clear to me, I know where you are and what you are doing every day, and I know in my heart, so I won't be too flustered. ”

also had the intention of comforting Shu Manyao, Yang Jianbai immediately nodded: "You wait, I'll go get you a map." Coming back and spreading the map on the soft couch, Yang Jianbai pointed to that place and analyzed one by one: "It's this piece, and there are also Xiliang and Dali, but these two are not enough to be afraid, Xixia and the Khitans joined forces to attack my Daxia Dynasty, and when they pacified the northern Xinjiang, they were already afraid, and Dali has always had a good relationship with Daxia, and will not help Tubo, Tubo now has a total of eight tribes......"

Shu Manyao listened carefully, and asked a few words from time to time, some military defense cloth is secret, and Yang Jianbai will not tell Shu Manyao. However, it did not prevent him from exaggerating his own strength and describing the situation in Tibet even worse: "When winter comes, there will be a fault in the grain and grass in Tibet, and this year there is a snowstorm, and there is a shortage of grain and grass in Tibet, so there is no confidence in the war......

"How long are you going?" Shu Manyao looked up at Yang Jianbai, Yang Jianbai reached out and touched Shu Manyao's hair: "Fast is one year, slow is three years, the emperor means this time, directly beat Tubo and no longer dare to resist, the northern Xinjiang has been pacified, the east and south are just some widows, and across the coast, don't worry too much, as long as the western Xinjiang is also pacified this time, the Great Xia Dynasty will have at least a few decades of peace and stability." ”

"I begged the emperor to let Imperial Doctor Bai live in our house during this time, if you feel uncomfortable, you have to call Imperial Doctor Bai over immediately." Yang Jianbai chattered and explained: "In addition, the queen mother will also send the midwife over tomorrow, the midwife in this palace is much more powerful than the outside, with them here, I can rest assured." ”

"The emperor also agreed, and he will let the queen help take care of you." Seeing that Shu Manyao didn't speak, Yang Jianbai was a little bottomless in his heart, and he didn't know if Shu Manyao was angry or not, but he still had to explain what should be explained.

"Over there in the old house, you don't go over until the child is born, even if your grandmother asks you to call you, you don't want to go over." The people over there, if they are really in a hurry, the bad water is a stomach, who knows if they will have bad thoughts about the child in Man Yao's belly because of the weishenme thing, in case they want Man Yao to have two lives, they will not be able to save people by then.

"I'll go to Shu's house in a while, and ask my grandmother and mother-in-law to come over to accompany you from time to time, and it's best to let my grandmother live in our house for a while, and then go back when you are out of confinement." Yang Jianbai said in a low voice, Shu Manyao reluctantly bent the corners of his mouth, reached out and pinched his arm: "What nonsense, how can grandmother live here, isn't that a chance for the people over there in the old mansion?" Don't worry, you've arranged things so properly, and when I give birth, I'll have someone call my grandmother and mother to come and accompany me. ”

Yang Jianbai nodded, very reluctant Shu Manyao, and stabilized the flower-like lip flap, until both of them were out of breath, and then let go of his hand. Shu Manyao's eyes were red when he saw him, and he suddenly stretched out his hand and pressed it underneath, and sure enough, the thing had already swelled up spontaneously and automatically, and it was a big bulging ball, which was very weighty.

Biting her lip, Shu Manyao was a little embarrassed, Yang Jianbai took a deep breath, and forced himself to extinguish the fire flowing in his body.

Just looked at the beautiful woman with a pink face in front of him, and thought that it would be time to leave tomorrow, and the fire in Yang Jianbai's heart couldn't be extinguished. Picking up the teacup on the table and pouring two sips of water, Yang Jianbai got up: "You rest first, I'll take a bath......"

Just as he was about to leave, his sleeve was dragged by someone, and when he turned his head, he saw that Shu Manyao also took a deep breath, and then his face turned red, and he stammered a little: "That, no need to take a bath, I, cough, that, before, grandmother gave me a booklet, cough, this kind of thing ......" glanced at Yang Jianbai's body, Shu Manyao stammered even more: "This, it's been held back for a long time, it's not good for your health, or are you going to find someone else?" ”

Yang Jianbai hurriedly shook his head, Shu Manyao pinched his palm: "That, no, no, cough, don't go in......"

Speaking of this kind of thing, men will always understand it faster than women, and Yang Jianbai's eyes lit up in an instant, in fact, he knew something about what Shu Manyao said. It's just that those are a little too ...... Man Yao is dignified again, he was afraid that Man Yao would feel that it was an insult, so he never had that thought, now that Man Yao said it, it seemed that he was also willing, Yang Jianbai couldn't help it, and without waiting for Shu Manyao to finish speaking, he picked up the person and strode to the bed.

When Shu Manyao woke up the next day, it was almost noon. Shu Manyao didn't call anyone in, just lay on the bed, looking at the top of the bed in a daze, it's been this hour, Yang Jianbai is probably out of the capital, right?

He said last night that he didn't want her to send it. She also didn't want to send it, and the most hated thing in her life was parting. After lying down for a while, I heard two maids outside talking in low voices.

"It's almost noon, do you want to wake up Madame?" Madame is hungry now. ”

"Don't, if Madame sleeps soundly, won't it disturb Madame? Dr. Cao also said that it is also haode for Mrs. to sleep more now. ”

"But you can't eat without eating, otherwise, wake up Madame and drink a bowl of soup first?"

"This ......"

Shu Manyao stretched out her hand and lifted the bed curtain and called Jingchun: "Dress me, when did the master go out?" ”

"I went out at the beginning of the day." Jing Chun hurriedly said, Shu Manyao nodded, pointed to the teapot on the table, Jing Xia hurriedly went to pour a cup of warm water, and brought it over to let Shu Manyao moisten his throat.

Yesterday afternoon, the two of them struggled in bed for a long time, and in the evening, they messed around for half the night. If it weren't for the fact that Yang Jianbai would have to leave early in the morning, I am afraid that he would not be able to rest all night. Therefore, at this time, Shu Manyao felt that his throat was on fire.

After drinking a glass of water, he still didn't have the strength to speak, so he asked Jingchun to bring fish soup over, and after drinking the soup, he didn't feel sleepy, so he simply went to the study to stay. It's just that not long after entering the study, someone came to the palace.

It was two grandmothers who came, saying that it was a midwife sent by the queen, Shu Manyao immediately thought of Yang Jianbai's words yesterday, this is a midwife from the palace, Shu Manyao didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly asked Chen's mother to clean up a room in her yard and let the two midwives live in.

After almost an hour, Imperial Physician Bai also came to say hello, this time he didn't live here, he only said that he would take the pulse of Shu Manyao, and he decided to come over once a day in the future, and when he was about to give birth, Imperial Doctor Bai would come over.

However, there was no man in the family, and Shu Manyao was not good enough to let Imperial Doctor Bai live here, so he first asked people to go to Shu's house to invite Shu Zheming and Shu Zhehui, and let the two of them live in Yang Mansion during this time, first, to entertain Imperial Doctor Bai, and secondly, to take care of Shu Manyao nearby.

Shu Zheming is old and sensible in the end, although he doesn't have a particularly deep affection for Shu Manyao, he also cares a lot, and he was relatively affectionate in the past, so he immediately led Shu Zhehui to live in the Yang Mansion.

Mrs. Shu and Cheng also came to see Shu Manyao, but because of the Yang family's old house, they didn't stay in the end, so they left at night. However, the old lady didn't have much to do in the house in the past, but she was able to come over every day. The old lady of the Yang family also came twice, and she couldn't interfere in the affairs of the Yang Mansion, so she left it alone.
