Time flies, and a year has passed.

The New Year is approaching, and Tian Youwei commands her subordinates to prepare for the New Year's ceremony.

In the past year, Shao Jing and she have taken root in Mingzhou, and there are more and more people who have made good contacts, and the children have grown up healthily, not to say that everything is going well, at least they are doing well.

If there is anything that is not very satisfactory, it is that Shao Jing, the representative of the Mingzhou Port City, has never been regularized, and the matter of strengthening the equipment of the sailor has not been conclusive.

However, with Shao Jing's efforts, the merchants and officers and soldiers on the side of Mingzhou united to form a patrol fleet to patrol and guard on the sea at any time, which greatly reduced the banditry, and the income of the Mingzhou City Shipping Division was increasing, and the number of merchants was also increasing.

Because there are many people who come and go, she has a lot of New Year's gifts to prepare.

In addition to Mingzhou, there are also relatives in the capital, Yuyao, and Xiangyang.

The long list was in front of her, and she checked them one by one, and she had no time to spare.

A small hand grabbed the hem of her skirt and tugged it down, tugging and tugging, and a small head poked out.

Brother Xi's eyes were white and chubby, his eyes were like a curved moon, saliva flowed down the corners of his mouth, and a few small white teeth in his small mouth were like jade.

"Mother...... Niangniang ......" He called Tian Youwei proudly, tiptoed his little feet, and reached out to grab her hand, but he didn't catch it, Yuan Dundun's body shook and fell out.

Tian Youwei was frightened, and subconsciously wanted to help, but after thinking about it, she couldn't help it, pretending to be nothing, and looked at Brother Xi with a smile.

Brother Xi looked clumsy, but he was bold, and when he saw that he was about to fall, he immediately grabbed Tian Youwei's skirt and steadied his body.

He exhaled softly, raised his head and looked at Tian Youwei with a smug smile.

"That's good." Tian Youwei stroked the top of the child's hair, and her heart was full of love.

Brother Xi only learned to stand in the past two days, she ordered someone to lay a wooden floor on the ground, and he crawled all over the house, crawling and crawling, and he learned to stand by himself.

Mama Hu made a fuss: "In the end, it is the grandson of the eldest master, who learned to stand earlier than the young masters and girls who were brought by the old slave, so that they can walk very quickly, right?" ”

Tian Youwei said with a smile: "They are all the descendants of the old lady, and the others are a little late, I'm afraid that it's because they didn't let them crawl around, but kept holding them, and just taught and walked." ”

Mama Hu realized that there was a contempt for the second room in her words, so her old face turned red and said, "It should be like this." ”

But it's just that, except for the two Mu Zikuan brothers, Brother Xi is the child she has taken the longest, from birth to the present, she has not left the front of her for a day, and she has always been more eccentric.

Tian Youwei smiled, took out a handkerchief to wipe the saliva from the corner of Brother Xi's lips, held her chubby little face and looked at it for a moment, and sighed: "I'm going to teeth again." ”

"Really? Look at the old slave. Mama Hu leaned over and picked up Brother Xi to look at the light.

Speaking of Brother Xi's teething, the family is happy and sad, for no other reason, Brother Xi will inevitably have a fever every time he teeths.

The nurse said: "Last time, I heard Grandma Wu Qi mention, what kind of traveling doctor, what kind of medicine, the child has a fever when he teeths, as long as one pill of medicine can solve the problem, and he will not do it again in the future, does the housemother want to ask someone to inquire?" ”

"There's no need." Tian Youwei categorically refused: "It is common for children to have teething and fever, just burn and burn, take care of it carefully, there is no medicine that can cure it at one time." ”

"That's right, the pills prepared by the traveling doctor who don't know the roots, you dare to give them to your children casually." Shao Jing walked in from outside, bringing in a cold breeze.

"Why did you come back so early today?" Tian Youwei handed the gift list to Ximei for checking, and stepped forward to help Shao Jing change into his official uniform.

Shao Jing held her hand: "Don't worry, I have something good to tell you." ”

Mama Hu was about to take the others to retreat, Shao Jing smiled and said, "Don't avoid it, everyone can hear it." ”

But it was Jingzhong's will, first, to officially appoint Shao Jing as the secretary of Mingzhou Port City, second, to give Brother Xi a reward, and third, to finally relenting and agreeing to strengthen the strength of the sailor.

All three are good things, Mama Hu clasped her hands together and praised the Buddha repeatedly.

Tian Youwei was overjoyed and said with a smile: "It means that everything you have done in the past year has fallen in the eyes of Your Majesty, and you feel very good and satisfied." ”

Shao Jing has not been officially appointed before, for only one reason, he is too young and has little qualifications, and it is difficult to convince the public when he suddenly makes a promotion.

He has done too much in the past year, which can be described as exhaustive, and his achievements are also remarkable.

The reason why Brother Xi was rewarded is related to Shao Jing's diligence and ability, and because he is the only grandchild of Mu Zikuan, he is now rewarded with a jade Ruyi, which means to compensate the orphans of the martyrs, and hope that the child is safe and happy.

To enhance the strength of the water division, there is another condition - the imperial court has no money to spare, and it is up to Mingzhou to find a way to solve the problems of military salaries and baggage.

Shao Jing held Brother Xi in his arms and smiled bitterly: "You are going to suffer again, I will only be busier in the future, and I can't manage the affairs of the family, I have to rely on you." ”

Tian Youwei doesn't care about these, there are these trivial things left and right, she just moves her mouth, and there are people to do complicated things.

She was only worried about Shao Jing: "It is not easy to enhance the strength of the sailor, how much does it cost, it is still a bottomless pit, do you think of a way?" ”

Shao Jing said: "It's counted, don't worry, tell me what you're busy with this day?" ”

He is very good at this, no matter how busy and tired he is, the first thing he does when he gets home is to discuss family matters with Tian Youwei, and he never makes her feel that she is left out.

Tian Youwei also took out the gift sheet and told him one by one, and when it came to the Pu'an County Palace, Shao Jing said: "This year's ceremony has to be thicker, and Princess Pu'an is pregnant again." ”

"......" Tian Youwei is stupid, Guo is too capable of giving birth.

Shao Jing was amused by her expression, leaned down and whispered in her ear, "Why don't we have another one too?" ”

Tian Youwei snorted: "No, no, no, let's talk about it." ”

Shao Jing just scared her, giving birth one after another, which hurt her body the most, even if she had another child, he hoped that she would raise her for another two years.

"That's right, I have an idea that I need your hand on." Shao Jing put the gift list aside, and Tian Youwei got down to business: "Nowadays, the porcelain on the market is uneven, and some maritime merchants only want to sell it at a low price regardless of the quality, and the sales volume is up for a while, but it is not a good thing for the long run......

Tian Youwei immediately understood: "Do you want me to take the lead in supervising this matter?" Don't let inferior porcelain go out? ”

Shao Jing said: "Exactly, there is no one who knows better than you, every line should have its own rules, and these rules cannot be messed up." My father-in-law was the head of the Yue porcelain industry at the beginning, and now it's right for you to continue to do this, plus the name of Caowei Mountain people, you can convince the public. ”
