Chapter 263: Mysterious Gift
Xia Hanqiu smiled, but she was also moved in her heart, she may not be so selfless with these people, but seeing them grow into what they are now, she is also happy in her heart.
"I really don't know, I'm very busy during this time, I even forgot my birthday, my husband told me a few days ago that I thought I would invite a few familiar families, but I didn't expect so many people to come, but I'm sure that not all of these people were invited."
Wu Linlang quickly thought of something else when he heard this, "The movement here can't be hidden from those people." ”
These people naturally refer to the people of Fujian led by the city lord, Xia Hanqiu hooked the corners of his mouth, "If it was definitely inappropriate before, but now, it doesn't matter, the final battle between Fujian and Xingguo is about to begin, and Huiting has always been an important supply place, even if they are aware of it, they will swallow their anger now, thinking about settling accounts after the autumn, they will not have a chance." ”
Zhu Jialian was anxious, but her brain was also spinning quickly, "Hanqiu, are you saying that we are finally going to make a move?" ”
"The time is coming, whether you want to make a move, you have to ask my husband to know, we are confident that we will not do worse than men in other things, but when it comes to going to the battlefield, we can only stand aside, it has nothing to do with ability, and it is the same reason that men can't have children."
The women in the room all laughed, and Meng Ning, who was full of worries, almost sprayed a mouthful of pastries, and hurriedly drank a few sips of tea.
Seeing that the atmosphere was no longer tense, Xia Hanqiu turned to ask about other things, "Clotted fat, how are those women doing?" ”
Meng Ning worries about this matter every day, and she can open her mouth without thinking about it. "If it was enough to only give the military doctor a hand, and then the doctor taught them some more medical knowledge one after another, and they all learned seriously, and I heard Yu Niang say that everyone is very attentive, and they will practice together in private when they are resting."
Dong Niang's death made Chen Yuniang depressed for a while, but now she is spending all her attention on those things, learning is the best among everyone, seeing her like this, Xia Hanqiu simply sent Huayue over to help manage it, and if she wants to learn, she will learn with her.
Xia Hanqiu nodded slightly. Asked Sansa again. "You almost recognize the herbs, right?"
"Yes." Pan Shanshan nodded, "As long as I can find the medicinal materials, I basically know them, and I will not admit mistakes." ”
"Attentively." Xia Hanqiu smiled at her and looked at Yu Feifei and Qi Lingyi who were sitting together. "Is there a problem with the carriage and horses on the road now?"
"No problem. We've tried. ”
"Good. Qianqian, Feng, how are the things I asked you to prepare? ”
Yao Feng nodded vigorously. "The two houses you assigned to me are full of places that can be stuffed in, and I and Qianqian each have a wedding house that has been filled out for this purpose, and they are all full now."
"Good." Xia Hanqiu looked at Zhu Jialian and Qiu Yanli again, and said without waiting for her to ask Zhu Jialian: "All the things they prepared were accompanied by me and Yanli." ”
Xu Chunwen and Jiang Mei sat together, watching Hanqiu's gaze fall on them and said busily, "With Cheng Gongzi's help, the manpower has been prepared, and the things that should be learned have been learned, but whether it will go wrong or not, you have to be practical to know." ”
It's really hard to say about the supply, Xia Hanqiu nodded, and finally looked at Wu Linlang and Yan Shengnan, "Can you match the manpower sent by Fujun?" ”
Wu Linlang glanced at Yan Shengnan meaningfully, and smiled, "Fit, of course, Shengnan, don't you say?" ”
Yan Shengnan brushed his sideburns and hair, his face was a little hot, but he tried to pretend to be completely puzzled, that is, his voice was steady, "It's a good match, Zheng Gongzi should have explained before he sent someone over, everything is mainly about me and Sister Linlang, so he doesn't point fingers, every time Sister Linlang and I don't understand to ask him, he will also tell him in detail, and he can't find the slightest irregularity." ”
Xia Hanqiu remembered that the person sent by Changzhi was Peng Jiang, and Peng would be the one who could be used in exchange, so he would not always be in charge of that little thing, and he would be sent if he was afraid that it would be of great use in the future, and he probably wanted to take the opportunity to teach Linlang and Shengnan some things, but if he could really see the right eye, it would not be bad.
In other words, the people who often follow him are not involved in the family, and he has no need to say that he can pay attention to his heart, and he can't be rich, and he may not have to talk about having a child surnamed Yan in the future, and there is such a son-in-law, why should Shengnan worry about being bullied again.
"As far as I know, Peng Jiang does not have a concubine, but he also does not have a prominent family background, Shengnan, if you have a heart, it may not be impossible, but you have to think clearly, my husband will definitely reuse them, before the big thing is done, he may not be stable."
It's really said, but Yan Shengnan is not timid, a woman in the Wu Dynasty can choose her own son-in-law, why can't she?
It's just that his face is still very hot, "He is ten million times better than those men in the Yan family's side branches, it's just ...... He may not look down on me. ”
"If you don't see it, you have to ask to know, I wrote it down." The women's name festival is important, and Xia Hanqiu didn't say much, "Time is running out, you guys are working hard these days, I'm afraid it won't be long before you get busy." ”
Although they had already guessed in their hearts, when they really heard this, they didn't know whether they were more excited or nervous, or they were afraid, they were afraid that they would not be able to do well.
But when it comes to this, they are afraid, and they will never back down.
Seeing them off, Fu Yingying stayed alone.
"I guess it's only my birthday gift that I didn't give."
was a little tired from socializing, Xia Hanqiu looked at her out of the corner of her eyes, "What?" Got a big gift for me? ”
"Do you want that?"
"Yes, of course, if you give me a mountain of gold, I dare to accept it."
"That's what you said." Fu Yingying smiled slyly and gestured to the personal maid.
The maid left in a hurry after a salute, Xia Hanqiu didn't know which one she sang, and she didn't ask much, she talked more today than she had in ten days and half a month combined, I really didn't want to say it.
Soon, two familiar men came in with a large box large enough to hold two ten-pound quilts, put it down gently, bowed to Xia Hanqiu and withdrew.
Xia Hanqiu remembered, this is clearly a person from the yellow group.
What is it that has called them back?
"I'm just for you."
"Mysterious." Xia Hanqiu motioned for everyone to step back.
Fu Yingying also decided to be mysterious to the end, "You go and open it yourself." ”
Xia Hanqiu raised his eyebrows, really stepped forward, and lifted the lid that was just buckled and unlocked, and suddenly, his eyes were full of golden light.
This person actually gave her a box of gold!
The surprise was only for a moment, Xia Hanqiu looked back at the person who was smiling and squinting, "This is to make me a golden cage?" ”
"I don't dare, your husband will tear me apart." Fu Yingying walked over, picked up a piece and knocked it, "This is my dowry." ”
"Your father is so generous."
"To be exact, my mother's generosity, she gave me all her dowry, and half of it is her dowry."
If you don't understand what Yingying means, Xia Hanqiu can't pretend to be out, the two are too familiar, but she has to accept it......
"Yingying, I'll take half of it, and I can't take half of your mother's dowry."
"I decided to go home and discuss with my mother before I decided to send it, my mother agreed, autumn, I dare to pat my chest and say that I really want to help you, because I see it very clearly, I am good if you are good, not to mention that I can help you and end up in front of my husband, I only make money and do not lose, but my mother thinks that there may not be only these, but in the final analysis, the meaning is almost the same, you are good, we are good, the Fu family, the Xia family, and your husband and wife, have long been in the same boat, if the boat sinks, we can't fall well, But if this boat rides the wind and waves and leaves other ships to lead the way, our two families will inevitably benefit, compared to this, this bit of gold is nothing, and we have not exhausted the family, you just have to rest assured, what you are doing is what all our women want to do, I will not say how much silver you have spent in more than a year, but I also want to make a contribution, but this box is my dowry, you have to pay me back, if you treat me badly in the future, I will carry this box to you to cry, see if your conscience can not pass. ”
A warm current rose in Xia Hanqiu's heart, and finally he was amused, "I can't owe you anything to anyone." ”
"That's what I want." Fu Yingying knew that Qiu had accepted her words, and she was immediately refreshed and overjoyed.
"Okay, I'll take yours, but I can't say it, if everyone else does it, will I accept it? Can't accept and don't accept is not just a matter of missing a word, if you do, how to make rules in the future? ”
"Don't worry, I know, I'm the brainless one?" Fu Yingying stepped forward to close the box and patted it with her hand, "Remember to return the box to me, I won't give you the dowry." ”
When I walked to the door, I looked back and smiled brightly, "Although the sun is about to set, I still want to say: Happy birthday." ”
“…… Thank you. ”
Fu Yingying walked for a while, and Xia Hanqiu sat there without moving.
I didn't think about anything in my head, it was empty, and I felt that everything was floating and couldn't be implemented.
She's supposed to be happy, shouldn't she? So many people celebrate her birthday, but why do you just feel tired? The bones are soft, and they don't want to talk.
Don't do it anymore.
When Duan Ziyi came in, he saw that the birthday star looked drowsy, and there was a wooden box in the center of the room.
"Who gave such a big gift?" Duan Ziyi thought, it was estimated who among the twelve women.
"Yingying sent it." Xia Hanqiu stretched out his hand, Duan Ziyi understood, walked up to her and let her hug her, and stretched out his own arms around her, "Very tired?" ”
"Well, I'm tired, I won't do my birthday in the future, even if I live to eighty, I won't do it."
Duan Ziyi smiled, "It's not easy to live to eighty, the goal is smaller, I'm afraid I won't be able to survive you." ”
"If you can't live, just wait on the Nai He Bridge, I'll come to you." With his eyes half-closed and his mind a little muddy, Xia Hanqiu himself didn't know what he said, let alone how much this sentence touched the people who heard it.
This sentence was remembered by Duan Ziyi for a lifetime. (To be continued......)
