Chapter 95: The Northern Song Dynasty 10
"Huh?" Although he felt that Ding Wen'an's instructions were a little strange, Ding Mancang still obediently did it. Not to mention, as soon as he was far away, Shi Lamei really stopped retching.
"Brother Wen An, what's going on?" Ding Mancang asked suspiciously.
Ding Wenan smiled meaningfully at him: "Because you stink too much." ”
"Huh?" Ding Mancang hurriedly lowered his head and sniffed, raised his head and said, "It doesn't stink!" ”
Ding Wen'an laughed even more, and Shi Lamei realized something and blushed embarrassedly.
Ding Wenan said: "Okay, you don't have to do today's dinner, you can quickly take Lamei to the county seat to see the doctor." ”
"Huh? Did Lamei have any illness? Ding Mancang panicked.
Ding Wenan smiled: "Don't worry, she is not sick, it should be a good thing." ”
"A good thing?" Ding Mancang still didn't understand what was going on, and he was so worried that his hands and feet were weak.
Seeing him like that, Shi Lamei was ironed and funny in her heart, and walked up to him and pinched him: "Don't worry, it may really be a good thing." ”
"Huh?" Ding Mancang was at a loss.
This stupid brother is so stupid that Ding Wenan can't bear to look at it.
"Hurry up and set up the ox cart and take Lamei to see the doctor." Ding Wenan directly pushed Ding Mancang out of the courtyard gate, and Shi Lamei followed out with a smile.
Shaking his head with a smile, Ding Wenan picked up the fish on the ground and walked into the kitchen. The young man's subordinates were all edible masters, and there were no dishes and rice left at noon, so Ding Wenan boiled fish soup with fish bones and fish heads, and then made a pot of porridge with fish soup. The fish was cut into slices, wrapped in flour and fried into crispy fish fillets, mixed with wild vegetables, handed over Xing'er, who practiced big characters in the study, and let him wash his hands, and the father and son had dinner together.
After the meal, the father and son were walking in the yard to eat, and suddenly the gate of the yard was knocked open, and Ding Mancang rushed in excitedly: "Brother Wen An, I'm going to be a father, I'm going to be a father." ”
Ding Wenan said calmly: "Well, congratulations." ”
"Thank you, thank you." Ding Mancang happily accepted Ding Wenan's congratulations, didn't stay long, and ran away with another gust of wind, either to share the good news with others or to go home to take care of his wife and unborn child. I think that Mancang Dad and Man Cangniang are also very happy, uh, I have to make my own rice in the future, and Man Cangniang will definitely not let pregnant women tired.
Sure enough, Shi Lamei didn't come to Ding's house the next day, and Ding Mancang ran home after doing his own things early, but Mancang Niang came and said that she helped Ding Wenan cook on behalf of Shi Lamei, and was persuaded by Ding Wenan to go back.
On the fifth day, Ding Mancang, who had calmed down, came to Ding Wen'an.
"Brother Wen An, I'll choose the first path."
I knew he would choose it this way.
Ding Wenan smiled: "Don't worry, wait a while." ”
Ding Mancang thought that Ding Wenan had agreed to him and left happily.
After another ten days, a group of guards on tall horses escorted a eunuch into the village, accompanied by the prefectural magistrate, and all the villagers were stunned. The eunuch read the holy decree or something, they had only seen it in the play, and they never imagined that one day they would be able to see the real eunuch read the holy decree with their own eyes. Oh my God, the Ding family's ancestral grave is smoking, right?
"Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said......"
The emperor knew that Ding Wen'an liked a leisurely life, so he did not give him the title of real power, but gave him the title of Marquis of Leisure, rewarded him with a house in the capital, and let him go to the capital to live. In this regard, Ding Wenan did not resist much, he had a high status but did not have to work hard to be an official, and he was able to own a property in the capital where every inch of land was expensive, it was simply profitable, so what else could he resist?
Ding Mancang was named the general manager of the nine products, and he was included in the forbidden army to guard the safety of the imperial city, and he didn't have to go to the border to fight for his life and be an official, and he also earned.
Ding Mancang's family was overjoyed, and deeply felt that following Ding Wenan was the most correct decision Ding Mancang made. Look, Ding Mancang followed Ding Wenan to save General Yang, and was rewarded by General Yang with generous gifts and improved his family's life; Now he has saved the emperor and become an official...... Not to mention that Ding Mancang also followed Ding Wenan to learn the archery technique of 100 shots! Hey, I knew they were also going to hug Ding Wen'an's thighs! Alas, now I can only watch Ding Mancang envy, jealousy and hatred with Ding Wen'an's chicken dog ascending to heaven.
With eunuchs and guards to help, Ding Wenan soon packed up and saluted and followed this group of people to the capital, Ding Mancang was naturally with them, but Shi Lamei was pregnant and couldn't travel long distances, so she stayed, and waited until Ding Mancang settled down in the capital, and Shi Lamei's fetus was also stable, and then took her to the capital.
The village is not far from the capital, but after ten days' work, the group came to the capital. The capital of the Northern Song Dynasty is Tokyo Bianliang, also known as Kaifeng Mansion, which is divided into three parts: the outer city, the inner city and the imperial city. Kaifeng's city planning is very advanced and reasonable, there are four wide and straight avenues in the city, called "Royal Road", intersecting in the shape of a cross. The avenue divides into a number of criss-crossing roads, mostly intersecting at right angles, and divides the urban area into a number of squares called "fangs", which serve as residential areas and commercial areas. The industry in the capital is very developed, and the shops and stalls are very prosperous, which makes Ding Wenan think of "Qingming Riverside Picture", which is compared with the real scene, hey, there is really not much gap.
The most advanced thing in the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty is that there are many green belts and drainage ditches in the city, which are no different from modern cities.
Entering the city gate, Lin Mancang was attracted by the bustling street scene, he didn't know a lot of the things sold on the stalls, but they looked beautiful and interesting, so he wanted to take a closer look, if it was not expensive, he would buy it, and wait for Lamei to come to the capital and give Lamei as a gift. As soon as his feet were about to step aside, he was stopped by Lin Wen'an.
"From now on, we will live in the capital, when can't we buy things if we want to? Settle down, we're going to the palace now to see the Emperor Shane. ”
"Oh." Ding Mancang retracted his feet and obediently followed Lin Wen'an to the palace, when he heard the vendors around him suddenly shouting, "Lord Zhan is here, Lord Zhan is patrolling the streets." ”
In Ding Mancang's stunned gaze, all the vendors picked up what they were selling and ran in one direction. I saw a young man in a red guard uniform there, and the vendors stuffed things into the young man's arms. The young man wanted to refuse but couldn't, holding a bunch of vegetables, eggs and the like with a wry smile.
The young man is very handsome, tall, and heroic, but he has a gentle temperament, which makes people feel good at first sight.
Lin Wen'an blinked his eyes and asked Li Quan, the eunuch who accompanied them all the way from the village to the capital: "Gonggong Li, that Lord Zhan won't be full name Zhanzhao, the word Xiongfei right?" ”
