Chapter 173: Another Feast

After leaving the palace gate, Wen Wan got into a carriage and went straight to Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Beijing, and asked the head of the village to take out all the grain stored in the cellar for her, a total of 5,000 stones.

Whether it is a military disaster or a disaster, the first thing people need is nothing more than food and medicine. Therefore, as early as their family settled in the capital, Wen Wan began to store grain, and she saved a lot quietly in the past few years.

But the queen is a suspicious person, and she can clearly hand over no more than 2,000 stones, otherwise she will be killed.

Moreover, as soon as she left the palace gate, she came here, and this Zhuangzi must have been exposed, and everything in it must be transferred.

"Gather all the farmers and transport all the grain and things stored in the village, and leave only 1,000 stone of rice in the cellar." Wen Wan sat down on the table, and the coarse porcelain black bowl in her hand gave her a hint of warmth.

Zhuangtou, who was nearly half a hundred years old, quickly understood what she meant, and within half a day, the rice and grain weapons on Zhuangzi were quickly transported out of the dark passage.

In addition to a thousand stone of rice grain in the cellar, there are only some cotton clothes and vegetables left for the winter, which look unremarkable.

On the third day, Wen Wan handed over 2,000 stone of grain to the Hang family's people. In addition, he also bought 800 stone of grain in the market and handed it over together.

The other 2,000 stone of grain was sent all the way to the frontier by her family's people in the shadows, pretending to be foot merchants, and then sold to the army at a low price.

It only took six days before and after this, and Wen Wan arranged everything properly.

After all the grain was transported to the camp of the Ming army, the leader Lin He'an led his soldiers to eat a full meal, and kowtowed three times in the direction of Beijing.

Before the battle between the two armies, his soldiers intercepted a caravan of rice and grain that was privately escorting, with not only 2,000 stone of grain on board, but also countless medicines and meat.

The morale of the army soared, and when they rejoiced in winning three battles in a row, only the young generals Lin and Fang looked at the hillside in the north with a dog's tail in their mouths.

At this time, Wen Wanzheng, who had been tired for several days due to nightmares and hard work, had a high fever and was lying on the bed coughing heartbreakingly.

"Except for the two who came back to report the news, the rest of the people in the shadows followed him, our son is not as unscrupulous as you think!" Lin Yuan fed the medicine spoonful by spoonful, and his brows furrowed into Sichuan characters.

"Bitter." Wen Wan only drank two sips, and then she couldn't drink it again and again, and the Chinese medicine not only tasted bitter but also smelled bad.

"How can I get sick if I drink it? I take a sip, you take a sip. Lin Yuan lowered his head and took a sip of the medicine, and handed the spoon full of the medicine to her mouth.

Wen Wan had to drink the medicine obediently, and raised her hand to gently wipe the sweat on his forehead: "When I sleep and sweat, I will get up and stew chicken soup for you to drink." ”

Lin Yuan didn't leave after feeding the medicine, only guarded her gently and tucked the quilt for her: "Sleep, I'll guard you." ”

Fang Pozi, who was standing on the side, had long been accustomed to it, only Mo Yun lowered his head and was shocked, it turned out that there were such idle days in the world.

The day before the Mid-Autumn Festival, a letter came from the front, and the messenger also brought Wen Wan a purple-skinned fox fur with excellent color, saying that she had hunted it for her with her own hands.

Wen Wan touched the soft and slippery fur, happily gave the silver and many things to send people away, and when Lin Yuan went home in the evening, he lay in his arms and shed tears silently, and he couldn't eat enough and still thought about her.

Lin Yuan didn't persuade him, he just hugged her and looked at the familiar handwriting on the letter over and over again with the oil lamp, and when he saw that his son was healthy and brave and invincible, a little smile finally appeared on his face that had been silent all day long.

"The general soldier appreciated him, and not only gave him a separate tent, but also ate with him every day." Lin Yuan read the letter twice more before folding it with one hand and carefully putting it into the wooden box at the head of the bed and extinguishing the oil lamp.

Because of this letter, Wen Wan finally stopped having nightmares, and even the cold that was not good was healed.

During the time when she was sick, Mo Xiang appeared like an elf in the royal enclosure and was shot in the lower leg by the emperor with an arrow, and now she has become the second Tang Guifei and can walk sideways in the palace.

There is also news that the front has won two battles in a row, not only recovering two cities, but also capturing countless amounts of gold and silver from the enemy to replenish the treasury.

The emperor was very happy for this, not only rewarded the soldiers in front, but also the two imperial merchants Xie and Lin, who donated the general's military salary, were also rewarded, and they were awarded a vacant position in the imperial court.

The above news is reported by the gossip queen Song Pozi who walked the streets and alleys, and the rear editor Wen Wan forcibly sorted it out.

Early this morning, Wen Wan was playing badminton with Wanwan at home, enjoying the cheers of countless little fans next to her, and Hang's letter came.

So, Wen Wan, who had read the letter, threw away the homemade badminton racket, stretched out her hand and beckoned Mrs. Fang to instruct: "Inform me, the Lin family will hold my father-in-law's seventieth birthday on September 20." ”

Mrs. Fang's eyes widened: "Madam, it's too early, right?" The old lady is only sixty-three! "Besides, the old lady's birthday banquet has just passed, right?

Wen Wan waved her hand, took the three fresh beef fried wontons sent by Mo Yun in time, and ate them happily one by one: "Those who become big things are not informal, go and go!" ”

As a result, the Lin family sent invitations to large and small figures in Beijing, inviting people to participate in Mr. Lin's 70th birthday.

Shang Jia, the official who received the post, felt a chill in his heart, and first thought of the Lin family's unique clean room and the golden light of the Lin family's housewife.

Then his eyes rolled, and he remembered that the Qu family, which is now in the limelight, calling for wind and rain, and Wen Ji is rapidly expanding and thriving industries, and I can't help but want to seize this opportunity to make friends with the Lin family, maybe they can also take advantage of the east wind to get a piece of the pie.

In the end, like an ant on a hot pot, racking his brains to think about what kind of congratulatory gift can get into the eyes of Wen San, who threw the five phoenixes and Chaoyang hostas? It hurts in the skull!

Everything was in full swing, but he didn't want to think that the day before the birthday banquet, Father Lin had a mistake, and he refused to come forward to accept everyone's congratulations even if Wen Wan wore out his mouth.

Father Lin is a dead house, no matter how comfortable he is in his own yard, he will inevitably tremble with his hands and feet and sweat on the top of his head when he attends the big scene.

Fortunately, Wen Wan has an understanding mother-in-law, seeing that her daughter-in-law is useless and does not ask her why she wants to hold a birthday banquet for the old man on a whim, she only pushes Wen Wan and swears to her: "You are so prepared to go to you, and your father-in-law will not be able to miss your business tomorrow!" ”

Although she didn't know these twists and turns in the capital, she also knew that wealth and glory were not easy to enjoy. The old couple can't help the juniors, all they can do is to be healthy and smile, and not to cause trouble for their sons and daughters-in-law.

When he went to bed at night, Mo Yun bowed down to report that the old lady had arrived on time for tomorrow's birthday banquet.

The old lady sat in the courtyard and persuaded the old lady for a long time, and the old lady relented. It's also difficult for her old man to let Liangqin serve freely this afternoon to persuade those few words, as if chanting the scriptures, the slaves and maids will memorize them. According to her, the old lady was not explained, but was tired of chanting the scriptures before she agreed.
