Chapter 187: Princess Mingrui's Dream Nine
With the addition of sand dates and alfalfa grass, the herders of the territory had a smooth winter, and not a single animal starved to death in the winter. The lords are grateful to Jirigala and Princess Mingrui, and they have all become their most loyal lords. Naturally, the good phenomenon of the territory of Jirigala was also seen by the other brothers of Sukhbaru and Jirigala, whose territory was not close to the desert, but there was a lot of barren and arid land, so they also learned from Jirigala to plant sand date trees, and begged for alfalfa seeds like Jirigala, and planted alfalfa in a large area. Gradually, the pastures of the entire Tushetu Khan region became larger and larger, enough for the herdsmen to graze their lives, and the herdsmen's lives began to improve.
The weather is getting hotter, and the herders are about to shear the sheep. Princess Mingrui asked the herdsmen to collect wool that the herdsmen felt was of little use, and taught the herdsmen to spin wool, weave wool blankets, and make sweaters with wool.
This method of using wool was learned by Princess Mingrui in her previous life, and it was a method thrown by her royal brother Huang Fu Rui to recruit foreign races in the northwest, Princess Mingrui only knew a rough idea, the spinning machine and the weaving machine were in this world, and she asked Brother Jiu to help find someone to make it. However, the performance is good, and the wool blankets and wool carpets woven are very exquisite, and they make a lot of money after being transported to the capital, increasing the income of the entire territory. As for the defective products that are knitted, they are not wasted, and all of them are bought home by the herdsmen at a low price. The wool blanket is as warm as the animal skin, but it is softer than the animal skin, and it is much more comfortable to cover the wool blanket when sleeping at night than to cover the animal skin, and then spread the wool carpet on the ground, and it is very comfortable to step on it with bare feet. With these two things, the cold of winter can no longer threaten them. What's more, there are sweaters made of wool. Wearing it under an animal skin coat, it's so warm. Thanks to Princess Mingrui, she sent people to teach women how to knit sweaters, scarves and gloves.
Princess Mingrui sat on the bed, her belly was already very large, her seven-month-old belly was bigger than the other's nine-month-old belly, and the imperial doctor took the pulse and concluded that she was pregnant with twins. But Ji Rigala was so happy that he stared at Princess Mingrui all day long, not letting her miss a little bit. Princess Mingrui herself also paid attention to it, she had a child in her previous life, and in this life, she would never let this regret happen again.
Princess Mingrui each has a wooden skewer and flexibly weaves a sweater, which is given to Jirigala. Originally, she wanted to knit sweaters for the children, but because the baby's skin was too tender, she was afraid that the sweater would hurt the children's skin, so she changed to knit for Jirigala to pass the time. She only knitted for an hour a day, and just like that, Jirigala was worried that she would be tired of herself.
Princess Mingrui's hands are very flexible, and in her previous life, she was a master at knitting sweaters and scarves. In her previous life, after the wool thread was made, there was a craze for knitting sweaters in the palace, and she learned it at that time. Now that I think about it carefully, it seems that the skill of knitting sweaters came from Lan Xiaoyou's palace, and Princess Mingrui suspects that even measures such as weaving wool threads and weaving wool blankets were also thought up by Lan Xiaoyou, and it was Huangfu Rui who took Lan Xiaoyou's name and credit. Think about it again, are those national policies that are useful to the people really come up with Huang Furui?
"Summer solstice, don't make it up again, you'll be tired." Ji Rigala entered the room and saw Princess Mingrui knitting a sweater, and hurriedly stopped it distressedly, although the sweater was knitted for him, he wanted it very much, but now everything is focused on Princess Mingrui and the child, and the sweater can be put aside first.
Princess Mingrui glanced at Ji Rigala: "I've just started making up, how can I be tired?" And if you don't knit sweaters, how do you pass the time? ”
"Have someone read to you?"
"They've read the books I brought with them twice."
"Let the slave girls dance to show you?"
"You want to see it?"
Ji Rigala hurriedly shook his head and said carefully: "Then I'll sing to you." ”
Princess Mingrui smiled: "Okay, I'll listen to you." ”
In order to make his wife happy, Jirigala immediately straightened her voice and began to sing.
The long tune sung by Ji Rigala was the tune of a young man showing his love to his beloved girl, and Princess Mingrui blushed when she heard it, but her eyes were full of joy. Mongolians are very musical, and the voice of Jirigala is more magnetic and beautiful than the average person's voice, and the long tunes sung can make people's ears pregnant, and many people are immersed in it.
After singing a long tune, Ji Rigala stared at Princess Mingrui with sparkling eyes: "Is it good?" ”
It's like a child waiting to be praised.
Princess Mingrui did not hesitate to praise, and praised with a coaxing face: "It's good, this is the best singing I've ever heard." ”
A big smile appeared on Jirigala's face.
The two husbands and wives were warm for a long time, and then Jirigala said the right thing: the potatoes were harvested, and the alfalfa was growing well, so that the livestock could eat grass with their stomachs open, and they all grew oily and slippery, and the good ones couldn't be better. The herdsmen made a lot of money selling wool and weaving blankets, and now they have surplus food and money, and they feel that life is better, and they want to hold a harvest banquet, and the people of the whole territory will celebrate the good life together.
Princess Mingrui listened to it in her heart: "When it will be held, I will also see." ”
Jirigala: "Half a month later, I thought that you would participate, let them hold it five miles outside the lord's mansion, and I will take you there then." ”
"Okay." Princess Mingrui happily replied.
Half a moon flies by, and in the evening, when the last bit of sunset falls, Ji Rigala takes Princess Mingrui to the place where the herdsmen gather and celebrate. Countless bonfires have been lit on the flat and vast grasslands, dotted with stars, reflecting the stars in the sky. The herdsmen gathered around the bonfire, some were playing the piano and some were singing, the men were drinking and chatting, and the women were cooking beef and mutton to make pilaf, a festive and lively scene.
When the lord and princess arrived, everyone stopped talking and fell to their knees together, sincerely grateful and welcoming them to the two.
In the face of the people, Ji Rigala is not a fool in front of Princess Mingrui, and she is very majestic.
"Everybody, get up!" Ji Rigala called out to everyone, took the marigold full of fine wine from his subordinates and held it high, "Thank you to the Immortal Heaven for giving us a rich and happy life, this cup of wine is given to the Immortal Heaven." ”
The herdsmen echoed in unison, and their voices shook the sky: "Thank you for Changshengtian." ”
Ji Rigala poured the wine from the marigold on the ground and poured a new glass: "Come, everyone have a cup of children's music, celebrate the harvest of potatoes, and celebrate the happy life that can be fed and clothed now." ”
The herdsmen shouted in unison: "Thank you, Lord Lord, thank you, Your Royal Highness the Princess!" ”
The herdsmen's cries were very sincere, making Princess Mingrui feel their sincerity. Princess Mingrui was moved in her heart, and thanked Lan Xiaoyou for letting her have such a life and such a leader, in her previous life, although her identity was also very good, she had never experienced the joy of being sincerely thanked. She touched her stomach and made up her mind that she would try to help these lovely lords and make their lives better and better.
"It's time for the grapes in the vineyard to ripen!"
After drinking, the sound of music was recalled, and the girls in beautiful clothes began to dance hand in hand, and the young men joined them merrily, and the older ones sang to their accompaniment, and the laughter and singing were carried far away. Jirigala and Princess Mingrui watched all this, and the corners of their mouths were filled with joyful smiles. Someone who had the courage to step forward and invite Jirigala to dance, Jirigala glanced at Princess Mingrui beside him and refused with a smile.
The men felt that they were not happy with the dance, so they quickly opened up an open space and started a wrestling game. Jirigala was moved this time.
Princess Mingrui saw it and said with a smile: "If you want to go, you can go." ”
"Then you wait for me, and I will give it to you when I win the victory." After speaking, Jirigala stood up and ran to the wrestling ring like a big child.
The palace maid brought a plate of prepared food to Princess Mingrui, on which were laid out mutton, beef, and potatoes. Although the beef and mutton were delicious, they were too greasy, and Princess Mingrui stopped eating them after eating two slices, and ate potatoes only. These potatoes are stuffed into the belly of the cow and sheep and roasted, and all the juice and oil of the beef and mutton seep into the potatoes, making the potatoes delicious, even better than meat. Princess Mingrui accidentally ate too much.
"It hurts—" Princess Mingrui clutched her stomach.
"Princess, princess, what's wrong with you?" The palace people who served were shocked, they thought that Princess Mingrui had eaten a bad stomach.
"I, I seem to be giving birth, hurry up and send me home." Princess Mingrui took a breath of cold air and endured the pain.
"Huh?" Everyone was stupid. This, this is about to be born.
"Don't send me back yet." Princess Mingrui shouted.
"Yes, yes." The palace people were called back to their senses, and hurriedly stepped forward to support Princess Mingrui. A pair of big hands reached in, and with a force, all the palace people were pulled aside, and the owner of the hand hurriedly grabbed Princess Mingrui and picked up the princess. It was the Gilrigala.
It turned out that although Ji Rigala participated in wrestling, most of his mind was on Princess Mingrui's side, and when he saw Princess Mingrui covering her stomach, she immediately ran over, picked up Princess Mingrui and ran: "Go home." ”
Behind him, Jirigala's attendants shouted: "Lord, lord, ride in a carriage! ”
Hearing this, Ji Rigala changed direction and ran to the carriage, put Princess Mingrui in the carriage, jumped on the carriage himself, waved the horsewhip, and drove the carriage to the lord's mansion. The followers of the two hurriedly rode their horses, got into the carriage and hurriedly chased after them.
Fortunately, the place of the banquet was not far from the Lord's Mansion, and Ji Rigala quickly drove the carriage back to the Lord's Mansion, picked up Princess Mingrui and ran to the room of the two, shouting as she ran: "Call the Imperial Doctor, call Wen Po, the princess is going to give birth!" ”
Boom - there was an explosion, and the people in the entire princess mansion were busy!
