Zeng Mao shouted: "Don't talk nonsense, this is not something we can think about." ”

Zeng Yong was worried that someone would covet the ice control method, so he repeatedly explained to him. If someone forcibly grabs the ice, the eldest princess is not easy to mess with! They transported grain all the way, not only protecting the grain, but also the Lan family.

The emperor was able to arrange it like this, wasn't he also worried about this?

Xing Guan was reprimanded, but he didn't care. He has no background, his family is poor, his father is a gambler, and the family not only has no money for him to worry about his future, but also owes a lot of foreign debts.

He is twenty-three years old this year, and he barely has a nine-rank martial arts position with the help of his uncle, and with the situation of his family, it is very difficult to have a capable Yue family to help him.

A better family will not marry his daughter to him, if he is looking for a civilian girl or the daughter of a merchant's family, there is basically no backup to help him with his future.

He heard that there were two divorced women in the Lan family, and a girl who had been divorced. Even if the Lan family loses all their wealth, there must still be a lot of good things. The old lady was able to turn over the recipe for making ice, and maybe there were other recipes.

The problem is that Miss Lan is twenty-eight years old this year, and she has only had one daughter after ten years of marriage. But after all, she is a concubine, and only when she marries her will the old woman come up with good things.

The remaining two are concubines, and after marrying, there will definitely not be much money. The elder brother of the Lan family, who is an official, will definitely be willing to take care of his brother-in-law more.

Miss Lan is a little older, and if she can't give birth to a son in the future, just give him some money. As long as his official position goes up, will he still be afraid that the Lan family will not succeed? When the time comes, just take a few concubines and give birth to sons.

The emperor did not cut off their heads, which means that this matter is over. He didn't expect to be able to pay homage to the prime minister, as long as he could go up further. Thinking about it, Xing Guan's gaze became firm, this journey has been so long, he still has a chance.

Lan Rong was embarrassed, and Zhao's voice was still chattering: "Walking so slowly, when will you get there?" ”

The family of five sat in a big carriage, the position was not spacious, and they sat with a sore back.

"Mother, it's so hot!" Dingqian was only five years old, and he was usually well taken care of by the nurse and the maid, but now he has been bumpy in the car for a long time, and he has been making trouble for a long time.

"Wanting, why don't you go to the second aunt's carriage!" Zhao pushed Wanting.

Wanting shook her head: "But there are too many things in the second aunt's car, and it's not comfortable!" ”

Qian's carriage only has their mother and daughter and Aunt Gu, because there are few people, so there are also piles of luggage in the carriage, and the space is also very cramped.

Because the Zhao family and the Sun family sent some things over, but they did not send the carriage. Everything can only be squeezed once, not to mention the food and water for the road, everything is crowded to the brim.

Dinglang is the eldest grandson and has not been blindly biased, so he has been educated well. He comforted his sister: "Wanting, let's go all the way, we have to bring a lot of food, and it will be much more spacious when the time comes." After all, they don't go into the city, and we have limited supplies along the way, so we can only buy some things in the village along the way, or bring some good ones, so that you can eat well and use them well! ”

I understood it before I set it, but I could only endure it for the sake of deliciousness.

Lan Rongqi was stunned, he didn't expect his eldest son to be so sensible, it's a pity, it's a pity, if they hadn't been robbed of the title, Ding Lang would definitely be more capable than him! Thinking about it, Lan Rongqi's eyes turned red.

Seeing that Dingqian was no longer making trouble, Zhao happily touched Dinglang's head: "Lang'er actually knows so much." ”

Ding Lang shook his head and looked at his mother suspiciously: "Before leaving, my grandmother had already said it!" Let everyone endure again and again. ”

Zhao was suffocated, she was in a mess at that time, and she didn't listen carefully to Lu Yingfang's mobilization of the "hard-working and hard-working" conference.

Not to mention Lan Rongqi, the whole person is in a trance, and the affairs of the big house are all handled by the Zhao family.

Yayu's face has always been bad, and she was disgusted by her mother and rushed to Aunt Bai's car. She originally wanted to go to the second sister-in-law's car, but Aunt Gu was strong and occupied too much space. She proposed to let Aunt Gu go to the carriage, but her mother said that Aunt Gu must take care of the second room, so she asked her not to get involved. There is no man in the second room, and there is Aunt Gu to help her, which also makes her feel distressed.

It's just that a mother-in-law went to the next person's carriage to sit, and she was nagged by her mother and angry with her.

Yayu could only reluctantly get into Aunt Bai's carriage.

After Aunt Bai became pregnant, the original owner found out that she was also pregnant, and later gave birth to Lan Yayu.

So Lan Yayu is only half a month older than Lan Yajie.

Lan Yayu had an unsatisfactory life in the Jia family, and her face was already bad when she was worried all year round. And Lan Yajie has two sons, and she has a smooth life in the Zhou Mansion, so she naturally looks younger than Lan Yanyu.

Lan Yayu snorted coldly, what if she gave birth to two sons? Haven't you been taken back to your parents' house like yourself?

Aunt Bai is used to observing words and feelings, Mrs. Lan turned the tide this time, and her whole person has changed a lot, and now even her most beloved daughter has driven off the carriage, what are you doing in the carriage this time?

Lu Yingfang had just solved the problem of internal urgency in the carriage, and then saw Xiao Xing take out the commode and pour it, thinking that this is fertilizer! There are always a lot of people coming and going on this official road, and if a public toilet is built, people from nearby villages can come and pick up excrement.

Let's talk about this later!

Finally, when the sky was slightly dark, Qiu Da rode over and said that the army was ready to rest.

They stopped and waited until the army arrived, and then they buried the pot and cooked together.

Qiu Da and Hao Ye were arranging everything, some of the coachmen were feeding the horses with water and food, and the other men were burying the pot and cooking.

According to Qiu Da, the villages near the official road will not be available until tomorrow evening.

Their last wagon had not only grain, but also a few chickens and rabbits.

Zheng Wu ran over to Zeng Mao and said, "General, I saw that the Lan family has a small stove, only so small, it is bigger than my palm, it looks very convenient." As he spoke, he gestured with his hand to the size of the stove.

Zeng Mao walked over at this time, and more than ten meters away was where the Lan family rested.

Sure enough, I saw several small silver-white iron stoves with small ceramic pots on them.

Zheng Wu said beside him: "I saw it just now, when the iron stove was first taken out, it was really only bigger than my fist, I don't know how to separate it, a few of them can be built up to make a very small stove." And you can boil water with just a little firewood, and the smoke is not big. ”

Small, lightweight, and easy to carry, less smoke means less easily spotted by enemies. Zeng Mao's eyes lit up instantly.

Zeng Mao got closer and closer, and found that the fragrance was getting stronger and stronger.

He had heard from his subordinates before that the Lan family's last carriage was loaded with live poultry, apparently to eat better on the road.

Zeng Mao came, and Lu Yingfang naturally had to greet him: "General Zeng came just in time, let's have a light meal together!" ”

Zeng Mao wanted to refuse, but after a day of sunbathing, he just ate some dry food at noon, and now his stomach is empty, this fragrance is so domineering, and the "no" he originally wanted to say became "Okay!" ”

Lu Yingfang was originally worried that he would be polite, but now that he was happy, she hurriedly said: "We have female dependents, so the cooking will naturally be more delicate, I don't know how many generals there are?" Wait for someone to bring the food over. ”

Zeng Mao originally wanted to refuse, but when he thought that the Lan family wanted to be a favor, so that several generals would also take care of it.

"There are still seven generals over there, and you don't have to send them a meal, just send one meal in two or three days." Zeng Mao thought for a while, "There will be a village tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow will arrive at the post station, but there won't be too many things in the post station, and the main thing is to buy it in the village." After three days we will pass a village, and then go down, there are few villages, but we can hunt. ”

The implication is that when the time comes, money will not be able to buy good food, but hunting can supplement meat.

Lu Yingfang heard the sound and knew the elegance, and said with a smile: "We have some seasonings here, and the food will taste better." ”

Zeng Mao nodded. So the two sides reached some kind of agreement on food.

"This stove is special." Zeng Mao moved his gaze to the small stoves, there were small holes next to the small stoves, and the flames inside could be seen. There are ceramic pots on top of the stoves, and there are also small pots made of iron.

Bi Ling, who was behind Lu Yingfang, handed over a small iron stove.

Zeng Mao watched Lu Yingfang disassemble the iron furnace, which was not much bigger than a palm, there were actually three layers inside, and then it was fastened with one turn and one close, and an iron furnace half an arm's length was born.

Zeng Mao also took it and tried it, it was really convenient.

"The drawings for this furnace have been handed over to General Xiao Zeng." Lu Yingfang said with a smile, "It is estimated that it will be used in the army soon." ”

Zeng Mao is happy, can you use it in the future? On second thought, this is an iron tool, and it is impossible to spread it out and use it in the army all at once.

Lu Yingfang's words made him happy immediately.

"Let's build more this time, let's send ten sets for the general to use first!" As soon as Lu Yingfang's words fell, Lin Zi had already taken out a bag of bulging things from the carriage.

Zeng Mao was overjoyed and thanked him with a smile. He declined Lu Yingfang's invitation to dinner, and couldn't wait for the guard to take the bag of things and prepare to take them back to share with everyone.

The other generals were given a small stove, and they were all very happy. Xing Guan's heart was even hotter, and it seemed that he had to think of contacting the Lan family.

At this time, Lin Zi came over with a bucket with a lid and a food box in one hand. When he had finished saluting, he said, "The little one was sent by the old lady to bring food." ”

As soon as Lin Zi opened the lid, the fragrance was overflowing. It turned out that the small bucket was filled with mushroom and chicken porridge, which was garnished with some shallots, which looked very delicious.

In the other box were some flatbreads, made of white flour, which looked delicious.

Everyone felt even hungrier!

After Lin Zi left, the generals hurriedly gathered around, beckoning their personal guards to come over with dishes and chopsticks, and at the same time taking flatbread to eat first.

"There's ......meat in it," Zheng Wu exclaimed, and there was not only meat in it, but also carrots and green onions, and the color of the filling inside was very beautiful, and it was very appetizing to look at.

Xing Guan's eyes lit up, the white flour flatbread tasted so good, his family had been in debt for a long time, and he hadn't eaten such a white-flour flatbread for a long time, let alone the meat inside. Lan family, he must take it.
