Chapter 286: Sister-in-law's Private Talk
After a while, a golden roast sheep was ready, the old guy was obviously hungry, Cheng Biting Jin like this, he directly dragged a leg of mutton, and the other was snatched by Yu Chi Jingde.
A few Wenchen on Li Er's right, which was more elegant, cut off a piece with a knife before they began to eat. For Cheng Yanjin's heroic way of eating, they are used to it!
Have dinner, rest for a while, and go back to Chang'an in the afternoon, so explain everything and leave here with the courtiers.
Let's say that the people around here, when they heard the loud bang, thought it was the earth moving, and ran home one after another to prepare early.
The next day, Li Er's reward came, a large number of silk and cotton cloth, some jade porcelain, some fine gold and silver utensils, various colored screens, and some calligraphy and paintings from the previous dynasty. These are all good things, Changsun Chong likes them very much, and he likes them more than being promoted.
The eldest grandson Chong saw it, was very pleased, and said: "Your Majesty is generous this time, and he actually rewarded so much. ”
The eldest grandson Chong also knew that Li Er was compensating him for the formula of gunpowder, and he could not reward it explicitly, but could only reward him for other reasons. The eldest grandson Chong thought so, and when everyone saw the power of gunpowder in the future, if they knew that the formula of the gunpowder was obtained from the eldest grandson Chong, then the eldest grandson's family would not want to have a peaceful day.
The eldest grandson Chong decided that when he returned to modern times in a few days, he would bring more ancient jade and porcelain to give to his grandfather and mother, and as for the eldest grandson's father, he would send weapons. If you send some ancient jade and porcelain to the eldest grandson's father, it will also be a cow chewing peony, and he can't understand it at all, and he doesn't like it.
There is no need to go to the court today, Changsun Chong followed Liu Muxiang to the courtyard next door, saw that the ground had been turned over, and made a rough idea according to Changsun Chong's previous drawings. It can be seen that Liu Muxiang is really attentive and very complete.
There are four arches made of bamboo. Each is about three meters wide and one and a half meters high. There is no plastic paper, so you can only use oiled paper instead, and the oiled paper chosen is lighter in color. Because the top should be covered with a straw mat when it is cold, or on the hand at night, the oiled paper must be the strongest.
"Don't worry, you can get the oil paper in the afternoon! As for the straw mat, it has already been prepared, and it is estimated that it will be delivered tomorrow. "Liu Muxiang moves quickly. It's only been a day and a half, and everything has been arranged in an orderly manner.
"Alright, let's grow vegetables now!" The eldest grandson Chong smiled and said, "Cucumbers are a must, little greens." Baby rape, but also tomatoes. Lettuce and something like that! "Some vegetable seeds. It was brought over by Changsun Chong from modern times, and building a greenhouse is something that he has wanted to do for a long time.
can't think about things like the national social system every day, Changsun Chong is also chasing ducks to the shelves, but he feels that he should make himself more comfortable and improve his quality of life. Not only from dressing up, but also from eating. Eat well. That's happiness.
The eldest grandson Chong felt that it was okay, so he accompanied Liu Muxiang to grow vegetables! Before I knew it, it was all planted in two or three hours.
In the afternoon, oiled paper was delivered. Changsun Chong and the others carefully attached the oil paper to it.
This time-honored oiled paper is indeed good. It was really very strong, but Changsun Chong was worried about being punctured by the straw, so he decided to spread a layer of linen cloth on it.
The next morning, the Zhuangzi brought a straw mat and put it in the house next to it, and when it was evening, it was covered with a greenhouse to keep warm.
In the meantime, Dou and the others also came to see it and thought it was fun, but for a day, two days, before they saw the buds, they lost interest and stopped watching.
Five days after coming back, Changsun Chong took Liu Muxiang to visit Liu Muxiang. Dou thought about Liu Muxiang again and again for her son's sake, and turned a blind eye. Besides, her personal maid is now married to Liu Mulan, and she also has to give Liu Muxiang a little decency.
Liu Muxiang brought some gifts bought, thinking that the courtyard of her brother's house was empty, and it could also be used to grow vegetables, so she asked people to send all the remaining materials to her brother's house.
I brought the rest of the seeds with me today, just in time to help my brother plant them!
Liu Muxiang and the eldest grandson Chong walked to the street and bought some snacks and went back to their parents' house together.
Merlin was very happy to learn that Liu Muxiang had come back to save his relatives today, and he had prepared everything early.
It's different to have a hostess at home, my brother's clothes and living supplies are a lot more exquisite, and people are also in a lot of spirit. This Merlin is a virtuous and capable man, and he has arranged his family properly.
The sister-in-law is pregnant today and is waiting outside the door early.
The eldest grandson Chong helped Liu Muxiang out of the carriage and ordered someone to send the gift to the storehouse.
"Sister-in-law!" Changsun Chong and Liu Muxiang said at the same time.
"I can't help it, the eldest young master can't help it!" Merlin used to be the personal maid of the Dou family, although she had a bit of face, but she was also a subordinate, besides, the sister-in-law was someone else's concubine, according to the rules, they were not considered to be the outsiders of the eldest grandson's mansion, and she still had this common sense.
"Hehe, don't be polite, let's go in first!" Liu Muxiang said with a smile, not wanting to stay on this topic, "Sister-in-law, have you read the letter I wrote to you?" ”
Merlin took Liu Muxiang's hand and said, "Of course, I have prepared that yard, and there were not a few flowers and plants originally, so I dug it directly!" ”
"Well, today I just brought you seeds, and I will accompany you to plant them, and when it is cold, you can eat vegetables. Vegetables in winter, you know, are very rare, and it is better to ask my brother to send some to his colleagues and superiors than to send some money. You must know that in winter, there is no shortage of good fresh vegetables if you have money! Liu Muxiang reminded in a low voice.
"Hehe, my sister-in-law has a heart!" Merlin said gratefully, "You can still think about home!" ”
"By the way, what about my brother?" Liu Muxiang didn't see Liu Mulan, and said curiously.
Merlin smiled and said, "Your brother went to buy some things, and he will come back in a while, snubbing the eldest young master!" ”
"Where! Your aunt and sister-in-law are going to talk about some private conversations, and I'll take my subordinates to plant the vegetables! The eldest grandson Chong said indifferently, Liu Muxiang rarely went home, so he gave her some freedom and got along with her family alone.
"It's even more unacceptable! Master, take us to ourselves, and you can rest in the house. "Merlin didn't agree, if Mrs. knew about it, she wouldn't have to complain about her in her heart! You must know that the lady is most interested in the eldest young master, and she can't be a little slack.
"Sister-in-law, don't be polite to me!" After the eldest grandson finished speaking, he took the seed and went over.
Liu Muxiang grabbed Merlin and said, "Sister-in-law, leave him alone, let's go in and talk." I see that you have gained a lot of weight before, so you can see that you are living a comfortable life now! ”
Merlin's face turned red, and he said a little shyly: "It's Shutan, I used to follow my wife, although I didn't suffer hardship, but I am always a subordinate." Now that I have a family, I have a husband who loves me, and I am in charge of my own house, I am talking about me, and I suddenly felt uncomfortable the previous time, so I came to the doctor to see it, saying that I was two months pregnant! ”
"Yikes! Sister-in-law, it's so nice! Liu Muxiang said excitedly, their Liu family is considered to have a queen, and their parents can rest assured in the spirit of the sky.
"Hehe, your brother is also very happy!" Merlin said with a smile.
Liu Muxiang thought that she got married earlier than her brother, but she didn't have children, and she didn't lose it in her heart, it was fake, and there was bitterness at the corner of her mouth. But fortunately, Changsun Chong cherished her and didn't let her take medicine, saying that it would hurt her body, in general, Changsun Chong was still very good to her, and she couldn't embarrass him.
Merlin held Liu Muxiang's hand and said, "Sister-in-law, we are now our own family, so I remind you, don't bother me!" ”
"The eldest sister-in-law is like a mother, from the day the sister-in-law entered the Liu family, she is the elder of Muxiang, and the sister-in-law said that it is!" Liu Muxiang shook her head and shook off those obsessions in her head.
When Merlin heard this, he said slowly: "Mu Xiang, sister-in-law knows that you have bitterness in your heart, but since you have entered the door of the eldest grandson's house, you should abide by the rules of the family." Before the wife enters the door, she is not allowed to have children. This is the rule of the big family, and you can't mess up because you're alone. Besides, the other party is still a noble princess, and we can't afford to mess with it. Wait for the princess to enter the door, and you will get pregnant again, which is the best outcome. ”
"Sister-in-law, I know, so I haven't gotten pregnant yet!" Liu Muxiang smiled bitterly.
"Mu Xiang, I want to open a little, I can see that the young master likes you very much and trusts you. Madame naturally won't embarrass you and make it difficult for the young master. As long as we do our part, we can live in peace and stability. Merlin continued to persuade, "Don't worry, I have a prescription for the body after listening to the Shunzi Soup." When the princess enters the door, you will start to organize, and it is estimated that you will be pregnant in half a year! Merlin explained, these are good recipes, if it weren't for Liu Muxiang being a sister-in-law, she wouldn't have taken them out.
"Thank you sister-in-law, I know it!" Liu Muxiang said gratefully, "Sister-in-law, now that I have you, I have something to discuss with someone!"
"That's nature, we're a family!" Merlin smiled, "Your brother worries about you all day long, and he always feels sorry for you!" ”
"What is sorry for me, I volunteered to marry the young master, and I don't look down on anyone else." Liu Muxiang smiled, "Sister-in-law, you are free, explain your eldest brother more, I am doing well now." Although I am a concubine, I treat me very well, and I am ready to buy me a few Zhuangzi, and when the time comes, I will have my sister-in-law to help me watch it! ”
Merlin was pleasantly surprised, it is not bad to have his own industry, even if he does not have the favor of Changsun Chong in the future, he can still settle down.
"Oh, what kind of Zhuangzi are you going to open?" Merlin asked.
"If this vegetable greenhouse is successful, I am going to buy a village to grow fresh vegetables in winter, so that I can definitely make money." Liu Muxiang smiled and said, "As for the shop, Xianggong will go through the procedures in a few days!" ”
"Okay, okay, then your brother and I can rest assured! Firmly remember, you must settle down, the young master is not an ungrateful person, he will definitely be good to you, and good days are coming! Merlin said with relief, now the prime minister is relieved, and he no longer has to worry about his sister-in-law. (To be continued......)
