298 ginger is still old and spicy

Dr. Li is already over the age of old, although because he is a doctor, he is well maintained, and he looks at the fairy wind bones, but he is only about forty years. But in the end, when you are old, you should also be taken care of.

Dr. Li is not without a waiting man, since he appeared in Hezhou, he has an old servant of about forty years by his side. The old servant was deaf and dumb, and it was said that he was an orphan, who was picked up by Dr. Li and raised by his side, and he has stayed until now.

In previous years, it must have been the master and servant who celebrated the New Year together, but this year when they arrived in Hezhou, Dr. Li was Changle's mentor, and he helped him a lot during pregnancy and childbirth, and he also contributed a lot to Xu Erlang's resettlement of disaster victims and refugees in Hezhou.

So Jin Niang proposed, why don't you take Dr. Li to her home for the New Year?

Of course, according to Dr. Li's cold temperament, it is very likely that he will not agree. Then buy two cooks with good skills on the stove and send them to serve, and add two mothers-in-law who do rough work. After all, the Chinese New Year must have a year-like, and Dr. Li can't be too shabby.

Changle thought about it and said, "Let's buy two people and send them over." "Invite the master's family to come to the house for the New Year, the master must not be, or buy someone reliable.

Changle said, "Since I am filial to my master, I will pay for the purchase of people myself." In addition, let Ya Po bring people, and I will choose them myself. ”

When Jin Niang heard that there was no more disagreement, she nodded in agreement, "It's all up to you." ”

Changle bought his mother-in-law and sent it to Dr. Li without mentioning it, but said that on the day of the New Year, the border patrol sent by the imperial court came back from the border.

It's cold, and Jin Niang doesn't go out, but the news is still from the maids. She also heard that the faces of those returning border patrols were extremely ugly, as if they were going to kill people and cut people.

Of course, they are civil officials, and they will not do anything to kill people and cut people, but they hold pens in their hands, and the pen of a literati is the knife of a warrior, not to mention invincible, but it is also easy to take people's lives.

It is said that the old men of the border patrol history are afraid that they are not very satisfied with the results of the border patrol, and the Guide general will suffer, and even the officials with Hezhou will not be able to get better.

Whether the officials of Hezhou fall well or not, Jin Niang doesn't know this. But the black faces of the border patrol historians almost scared these officials in the officialdom of Hezhou.

Originally, they wanted to be close to these border patrol history. Especially Li Hehui, it is said that he and their Tongzhi Lord is the leader of the same year's scientific examination, or the emperor's relatives, if this is to make some incense invitation, not to mention that he can enter the eyes of Tongzhi by the way, even if he is promoted to Kyoto in the future, it is not a big problem.

It's a pity that the dream is very plump, the reality is very skinny, they were directly frightened by the black faces of the border patrol historians and didn't dare to breathe, and when they saw the ceremony, they all wanted to excuse themselves to withdraw, and there was still the heart to make friends.

That is, on the night when the border patrol historians returned to Hezhou, it finally snowed heavily in Hezhou, which had been gloomy for several days.

The snow was heavy and urgent, but in a few moments the ground turned white. By the next day, the snow was ankle-deep.

Fortunately, the house is okay, there are rough mothers-in-law and small servants who are cleaning non-stop, and the roads taken by the masters are quite clean. But the snow on the street was really thick, and there were a series of footprints along the way, and it was very laborious to walk.

After another two days, the heavy snow stopped, but because of this heavy snowfall, the roads were blocked, and the border patrol historians just wanted to rush back to the capital, which became a luxury.

When the snow was about to stop, Li Hehui came to Xufu, and he stayed in Xufu this time, preparing to celebrate the New Year here.

When Jin Niang heard this, she couldn't help laughing, "You really want to pull hatred for us." You didn't celebrate the New Year in the Zhizhou Mansion, but ran to the Tongzhi Mansion, I'm afraid that the Lord Zhizhou will blame Erlang and him for robbing people when he turns around. ”

Li Hehui smiled freely, "Shi Heng and I are on the same list, and we have a temperament and even make friends, which is well known to everyone in the capital." These two old men are not old antiques who stay at home, can they still not know the relationship between me and Shiheng? If I really deliberately avoid suspicion and keep my distance from Shiheng, it will make people think more. In this way, they will not say much. "When the border patrol came before, he stayed in the Zhizhou Mansion with them, because he was worried that he would live far away and be slow to receive news, and then delay the time to go to the border. As for now, they have all returned from the border, and there are no unnecessary worries.

Jin Niang didn't say anything when she heard this.

Li Hehui arranged it, and they had no reason to refuse. Although he knew that he was a drunkard and didn't mean to drink, but he had already agreed with this family business in his heart, there was no reason why Jinniang would not give them a chance to get along.

Before marriage, I know more about the character of the other party, and after getting married, I regret seeing the wrong person and become a couple.

Li Hehui stayed in the same prefect's mansion, but Xu Erlang only accompanied him for a while, and then went busy.

The snow is too heavy, and it will definitely become a disaster, so I don't know if the number of victims will increase this time.

Seeing that the New Year is approaching, and such things have happened, I have to say that it is really shocking enough.

But he could only mutter a few words in private, and then he had to arrange disaster relief work non-stop.

Li Hehui couldn't stay in the house anymore when he saw this, although he also wanted to be with Pian Pian everywhere, but the eldest husband did something and didn't do anything, and now that people's lives are at stake, he can't take care of his children's private affairs.

Changle also carried the medicine box and took Wenhua out of the house for free treatment.

Jin Niang also hurriedly asked people to give porridge and medicine at the city gate, and also asked people to make some cotton clothes and distribute them to the old and weak women and children to keep out the cold.

It seems that overnight, the entire city of Hezhou moved.

I don't know if it is because of the addition of the border patrol history, this time the officials in Hezhou are actively performing. They are not afraid of hardship or tiredness, not to mention that they are on the front line of disaster relief, but the wives of these officials, just like Jinniang, either give porridge or medicine at the four city gates, or simply let people carry mixed noodles and steamed buns in boxes to the point where the victims gather.

There is also a border army under the command of General Naguide, and a team of more than 1,000 people has also been sent out to help the officials and people in Hezhou for disaster relief.

Together, this relief effort was completed in five or six days faster than the last time. Not to mention the high efficiency, even the people's houses were quickly repaired by the silver donated by those kind-hearted people.

The people of Hezhou gratefully shouted "Lord Qingtian", and when the border patrol historians saw this, their dark faces finally turned slightly, with a little smile.

On this day, Xu Erlang and Li Hehui returned home early, and Jin Niang personally went to serve Xu Erlang to bathe. I saw that his hair was covered with dust, and even his hands and arms were scratched.

Jin Niang was distressed, "You know the same thing, you are in charge of the overall situation, why do you still do it yourself?" ”

Xu Erlang knew that Jin Niang was worried about him, so he chuckled, "Even Lord Zhizhou has taken off the official mansion and rushed to the front line, can I still only put on an official stand on the side?" ”

Jin Niang was depressed when she heard this.

Lord Zhizhou is not young, and he has always been pampered, expecting him to work to the death on the front line, that's not to think. At most, Lord Zhizhou is just acting like a show, inspiring morale, so that he will not really contribute. Whoever is like him, I'm afraid that he really treats himself as a low-level soldier.

Jin Niang doesn't think it's bad like this, to be honest, it's chilling that officials only show off and don't do anything, but it's Xu Erlang who is close to reality and does practical things for the people, so she feels that she hasn't married the wrong person. But it's still that sentence, she feels distressed.

Jin Niang muttered a few more words, Xu Erlang closed his eyes and listened pretending to sleep, and did not interject, he was silent, Jin Niang thought he was tired, so he didn't say anything.

But the two of them returned to bed after eating, and Xu Erlang was not tired at this time, so he talked to Jinniang.

Jin Niang also listened to the gossip of the girls, so she couldn't help but tease him and said, "I heard that the two elders rarely smiled today, but they are rare, yes or no?" ”

Xu Erlang nodded, and then told Jinniang something she didn't know.

It turned out that since returning from the border, the two adults had dark faces, and they looked like they were going to participate in the general Guide when they returned to the capital. Although there is certainly some dissatisfaction with General Guide, the ultimate reason is not General Guide.

Why? There are three also.

First, the swords and other weapons used by the border army in Liaodong have not been replaced for eight years. Most of the soldiers still used their earlier swords, which not only curled the blade, but also looked like they could break at any time.

Second, the clothes worn by the border troops were only jackets. If it weren't for the fact that most of the border troops in Liaodong were locals in Liaodong, they had long been accustomed to the severe cold, and just like the people of Liaodong, most of them were five big and three thick, and their physiques were strong, so they would not have been able to withstand this cold weather anyway. As a result, most of the soldiers were also frozen to the point that their noses and faces were swollen, and their hands and feet were frostbitten. Fortunately, there are many mountains and forests around the camp, and fires can be seen everywhere in the camp, otherwise, these people would have frozen to death before they even went to the battlefield.

Third, military salaries have not been paid for half a year, soldiers are unable to subsidize their families, and only the old, weak, sick and disabled in their families are unable to make ends meet.

All of this tells the truth that there are people in the court who withhold military salaries! Someone is exploiting the material in the army! The workshop in charge of the sergeants' clothes is shoddy, and the soldiers' bodies are harmed!

These things are listed one by one, but it is not a blushing face and a thick neck of the patrol history.

But it is unrealistic to say that these military salaries were withheld by General Guide, after all, General Guide is not much better than these soldiers.

In order to seek the truth, these border patrol histories also went to the general's mansion, and it was really empty, and even the general's wife only had one or two people around him. The food in the house is only slightly better than that of the common people, and it really doesn't look like corruption.

But no matter what, if such a big thing happens, General Guide should be in the book. He has been delaying not playing to the court, who knows if he has something in mind.

It was precisely because of the deep hatred of the status quo and the disgust of General Guide's inaction that the angry faces of the border patrol historians were completely black.

And this is also the reason why Li Hehui's face was ugly when he first returned from the border. The border army is so difficult, the weapons are so withered, it is not easy to protect itself, and it is really a fool's dream to think of taking the opportunity to counterattack the Tartars and seek greater benefits.

doesn't talk about these far away, but talks about the miserable status quo of the border army, which really makes Jin Niang doubt, "Is the border army really so miserable?" ”

Xu Erlang said quietly, "Not to that extent." Half true and half false. ”

When Jin Niang heard this, she knew that there must be something inside, so she widened her eyes and leaned on him, "You tell me carefully." ”

It turned out that long before Li Hehui went to the border, the general Guide on the border received a secret letter from the capital and learned that the imperial court was going to send a border patrol to Liaodong.

Liaodong is poor, and there are Tartars on the other side. However, the inaction of the first two generals and the officials of Hezhou led to the misery of the people of Hezhou, and the scattered and decadent border army.

The military appearance of the border army was improved, but after General Guide took office. However, as a native of Hezhou, General Guide had no relatives and friends in the DPRK, and it was really difficult to ask for more materials from the DPRK to improve the situation of the border army. Now I heard that the border patrol is coming to Liaodong, but it is not an opportunity.

Therefore, General Guide asked his subordinates to take out the most tattered clothes and weapons to use, and used this miserable appearance to face the "surprise inspection" of the border patrol history.

If things go well, these border patrols will return to Beijing, and the imperial court will definitely have to allocate funds, and the border army will be able to arm themselves at that time.

Even if he would end up on a charge of mismanagement and dereliction of duty, if the imperial court wanted to use troops against the Tartars, this Guide general would not be replaced by someone else. So this deal is a very good deal for General Guide.

It's a pity that the sky is not as good as the people, and no one expected that these border patrol histories were trapped in Hezhou by a heavy snowfall, and they couldn't go back to Kyoto a year ago. If you want to leave, you have to come next year...... But it doesn't hurt. After all, the matter of the shortage of silver for the Liaodong border army has reached the heavenly court, so I don't believe that Emperor Yunwen knows about it, and he doesn't find out the moths of corruption, doesn't give an explanation to the Liaodong border army, and doesn't reissue the silver.

As long as these goals can be achieved, this time will not be in vain.

When Jin Niang heard this, she was a little dumbfounded.

Who would have thought that General Guide would operate so much.

Changing to an ordinary border army general, when he heard that the history of the border patrol was coming, he must train the soldiers and let them appear to greet them with the best appearance. General Ke Guide went the other way...... I have to say that ginger is still old and spicy, this trick is really good, really clever.

This night, Jinniang didn't know when she fell asleep, but the next day, she was woken up by the cry of the triplets.

The three babies cried together, and the magic sound filled the ears as well.

Jin Niang sat up with a headache and let the maid carry Changqi in. You don't have to think about it to know that it must be this little troublemaker who is causing trouble, this little girl, she is small, but the energy in her body is really big, and she really turns the whole family upside down.

The nurse sent Changqi in, and the little girl cried with tears in her eyes, but when it reached Jinniang's hands, she immediately stopped crying.

Seeing this, Jin Niang couldn't help but let out a "heh", smiled and pointed at the tip of the little girl's nose and said, "The little villain will haunt people." ”

Xiao Yu'er and Brother Rong also cried when they were young, but they were definitely not as difficult as Changqi. This little girl is really sent by God to torture her, Jin Niang really doesn't know what she did in her previous life, so she let this little girl give birth to her belly in this life. This little demon star is too torturous.

Jin Niang played with Changqi for a while, the little girl had limited energy, and after a while, she fell asleep in the soft arms of her mother's mother. Seeing this, Jin Niang hurriedly handed her to Mama, and then rubbed her sore arm and got up.
