Seven or eight months old children, already know a lot of things, the most proud of Sun Xiangfu is that every time he stretches out his hands, his son and daughter will stretch out their hands to beg for a hug, the two milk babies are fat, when Sun Xiangfu holds one in one hand, they always hold the mini weapon sent by Yu Chigong when they are full moon, fight hard, and babble from time to time, and Sun Xiangfu's two arms can't support it for too long.

"Husband, let's hand Jing'er over to the concubine and hold it! Wanting girl prefers you to hug some. ”

"Well, let the husband kiss him first."

When Sun Xiangfu kissed his son's tender face, his son responded to him with a disgusted expression and kept turning his head, but he didn't give up, he just kissed his left and right cheeks before handing over the child to Yu Xiu'er.

Then, he attacked his daughter's little face again, obviously, his daughter Wanting was not so resistant to her father, and after Sun Xiangfu kissed her several times, she was still babbling and laughing.

"The wheat in the field is about to ripen, is the husband about to go to Shanyang?"

"Well, Your Majesty will hold a military parade at the end of May, inviting the chiefs of the surrounding ethnic minorities and the town guard generals to come to watch the ceremony, and after the parade, the husband will go north with the army."

Hearing this, Yu Xiu'er said with such an expression, "No wonder my husband will take the time to get tired of being with the children these days, I want to come to Shanyang this time, the time will not be short!" ”

"Well, if the war doesn't end, it shouldn't come back."

Yu Xiu'er thought for a while and said, "Hongmei and Chun Tao will give birth in the second half of the year, and the concubine has to stay and take care of them, otherwise, the husband will take the Zilan girl with him to serve!" ”

"Uh, don't, I've been running around for the past few years, and I'm not familiar with Zilan girl at all, so forget it! If there is a shortage of people around me, I can just go to the streets of Shanyang and buy two orchids. ”

"Orchid, does the husband like orchid?"

Thinking about those snow-white Yanmars, Sun Xiangfu swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "Of course······ I don't like it, it's not that you don't know, I have face blindness to the Hu people, it's just that the husband thinks that using Han women as maids is too wasteful, and they should have their own jobs and careers. ”

Yu Xiuer felt that Sun Xiangfu's explanation was quite passable, she was born into a family, and she did look down on Hu Ren, but she didn't understand Sun Xiangfu's true meaning.

The current situation is that the population of the Hu people in the Western Regions is larger than that of the Han people, and it is necessary for the Tang Dynasty to introduce labor to them, which will greatly make up for the lack of the labor market in the Tang Dynasty.

"Orchids are not only in Shanyang, there are also a lot of them in Chang'an, and the concubines will go to Renling City to pick up a few good ones in the past few days, train them, and let them be driven by their husbands."

Raising orchids is almost a must-have configuration in the mansion of the Tang magnates, and even the Yu family has raised a lot, Yu Xiuer's father Yu Chang often lets orchids sleep, it is said that after each time he finishes sleeping, he can be honest for a while.

Sun Xiangfu can now be regarded as a top-level magnate in the Tang Dynasty, and he doesn't even have a few orchids at home, so he really can't say it, people Cheng bites gold, and Wei Chigong's mansion also raises a bunch of orchids to entertain guests! It is said that there is also a sleeping service, and many good generals in the army like to find an excuse to go to their house as a guest when they have nothing to do.

Sun Xiangfu didn't know what Yu Xiu'er was thinking about now, he was an emotional animal, if Hongmei and Chuntao hadn't served by his side for a few years, their feelings would have naturally been cultivated, and he wouldn't have accepted the house, let alone those orchids who he couldn't tell who was who.

Listening to the fetal movements in front of Hongmei and Chun Tao's stomachs, Sun Xiangfu nodded with satisfaction, after these two women were pregnant with children, they were also delicate, Yu Xiuer specially selected two good-looking maidservants for them to serve, but Sun Xiangfu didn't even care about the Zilan next to Yu Xiuer, and they were even less playful.

"The master is going to Shanyang next month, and the two concubines will give birth in July and August, but I'm afraid that you won't have the time to come back, so it's better to take advantage of being at home and give the two children a name!" Hongmei stroked her stomach and said slightly coquettishly.

"Ah, it's a name again! I'm most afraid of this for my husband. ”

"Giggles, it's hard to compose poems, so what's so difficult to name! It's a pity that Daochang Li is not here, I still don't know whether the fetus in the womb is male or female, but this time the master wants to give two men and two women, four names! Chun Tao answered with a smile.

"Hey, you don't know, poems don't read for a lifetime, they are written and written, the name, but it has to be called for a lifetime, the meaning is not good, it is not smooth, it will be awkward for a lifetime, and you have to be careful for your husband."

When Sun Xiangfu said this, the girls really thought so, and they didn't force him at the moment, anyway, they had to stay at home for a month!

It was rare to chat with his wife and concubine at home for a long time, and at lunchtime, Uncle De took a letter over, which was passed from Lingnan, and after Sun Xiangfu read it, he smiled and said to Yu Xiu'er, "Xiu'er still remember the little girl Ah Yue in Lingnan?" ”

"It's the black girl who feeds the two baby elephants! The concubine remembers, what's wrong, is she coming to Chang'an again? ”

Sun Xiangfu nodded and smiled, "Yes! This time, the Duke of Yue asked his father and daughter to bring dozens of leaders and clans of the Yiren and Fangren tribes to Chang'an for sightseeing, and to participate in His Majesty's swearing-in parade by the way. ”

It is said that the people from Lingnan should be received by Feng Zhidai, but now that Zuo Xiaowei's general Zhang Gongjin went to Goguryeo to preside over the war, Li Shimin transferred Feng Zhidai to temporarily lead Zuo Xiaowei in the past, and he couldn't get out of the barracks all day long, but it was not as convenient as Sun Xiangfu's side.

"But the husband wants to arrange for them to live in the mansion?"

"Well, it's just a few dozen people, just live in the house! Usually ask a few more servants to take care of it, so as not to make them speech, conflict with others, in addition, Ah Yue, this little girl and her husband are also some fate, if you have time, you can teach her some Han song and dance performances, she learns very quickly, and when the time comes, go back to Lingnan to spread, in the country, it is also some benefit. ”

"The concubine knows, but when it comes to teaching singing and dancing, the queen asked the concubine two days ago if she had any intention of making a Taile order."

The current Taile Ling is served by Cui Shu, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, but unfortunately this old Cui is not the old Cui of later generations, he doesn't understand music at all, and he is not very suitable for the female officials who are in charge of a bunch of Yingying Yanyan.

Then, when Li Shimin and Empress Changsun discussed how to manage the art troupe dominated by female officials, they thought of Yu Xiu'er, who is proficient in singing and dancing, and is the identity of the county lady, so it is appropriate to serve as the head of this female official.

"Do you agree?"

Yu Xiu'er shook her head and said, "The concubine excused herself on the grounds that the two children were still young and needed to be taken care of, but the queen mother said that it was okay, anyway, this Taile Ling did not need to go to the court, and I should train and rehearse affairs, I can freely choose the venue management, and it will not affect the care of the children. ”

Hearing this, Sun Xiangfu is clear, and Empress Changsun, who has communicated more with Li Shimin, already knows the importance of this art troupe to the country, and she has a foresight, she doesn't want to be involved in politics in the palace, so she wants to use a more obedient courtier outside the palace to hold this position, and the Tang Dynasty noblewoman, in all aspects, where is there anyone more suitable than Yu Xiuer.

"My husband supports you to have your own career, this is the highest-level female official in Datang at present, and you can't miss this opportunity! I can't say that in the future, Xiu'er, you will still be able to get the title of Le Sheng! No, you have to find someone to record your words and deeds for future generations to pass on······

For Sun Xiangfu's ridicule, Yu Xiuer gave him a big roll of his eyes, if it weren't for Hongmei Chuntao and a few maids, I was afraid that I would have to laugh and play with Sun Xiangfu, but after Sun Xiangfu's ridicule, Yu Xiuer really moved her mind to serve as Taile Ling, and the left and right were just to help the court manage the training of the art troupe, she was originally good at these things, and in addition, it seemed that only when she did these things did she feel that the whole person was more energetic.

In fact, many deep resentful women love to think crankily and do irrational things, they are all idle, people who have their own jobs and careers, the whole spirit is different, Sun Xiangfu only hopes that after Yu Xiuer serves as Taile Ling, she can shift her attention to her career, don't keep thinking about recording her words and deeds, and encourage yourself to become a saint.

After a rare two days of leisure at home, when Sun Xiangfu went to Weinan again, Li Shimin was already ready to return to Chang'an with the courtiers, because the army trained in the Longshouyuan school field had already been equipped with new equipment, and the new equipment for the army trained in Hebei Province and Laizhou had already been escorted out by water.

"I mean, continue to maintain one or two armaments production lines, make some weapons and equipment to reserve, and spend a lot of money, and you will find a way to solve it."

"Well, the minister is not the secretary of the Ministry of Finance."

"I know you have a solution."

"Oh well! The minister temporarily appropriated the funds that were to be allocated to the weapons and equipment research group. ”

"Weapons and equipment research group? What for? ”

"You don't think that these new repeater chariots, bed crossbow chariots and so on, all came out of thin air! This is my subordinate craftsmen after several years of research, improvement, only to invent the results, in the future, this matter, can have to be done by the imperial court itself, the champion of engineering Li Yuhua is a very thoughtful person in this regard, the minister plans to let him take someone to be responsible for this aspect of research in the future, for our army, to provide more advanced, more lethal weapons. ”

Hearing this, Li Shimin was stunned, he had asked the Ministry of Industry to set up an industrial research institute dedicated to the study of the production and development of various factories, and the effect was very significant, and in less than half a year, dozens of labor-saving and efficient products were produced. ”

All right! Li Shimin has been in Weinan for two or three months, there is nothing to hide from him, since the spring ploughing, the farmers have been idle, began to go to the major mines to work, so, the mine to provide the smelter of ore suddenly increased, therefore, the smelter's production capacity has increased a lot, Sun Xiangfu also took the opportunity to let people build a lot of bicycles and tricycles.

When these cars were first put on the market, they would definitely be able to make a lot of profits, in fact, Sun Xiangfu was planning to hoard more goods to make a gimmick for Times Square, which may open early next year, but now it seems that it is going to be released in advance, of course, it will not be put on the market, and the richer elite class will be slaughtered first.
