Hearing that Xie Siniang not only did not die but also became a bandit leader, Liu Meibao was very surprised, but immediately sighed.

In this era, a woman who can be this must have suffered a lot.

"Sometimes I really wish she could find someone else to live a good life," Liu Meibao sighed as she leaned on Lu Yan's arms, "but I think that maybe it wasn't a good day for her." ”

Lu Yan gently rubbed her legs.

"Don't think about it, let her go as long as she thinks it's going to be good." "She adopted ten orphans." ”

In fact, he originally wanted to say that Xie Siniang now occupies a lot of territory, but it seems that men and women have very different ideas about things, so he hurriedly changed his mind and pondered to pick up what women were interested in.

Sure enough, Liu Meibao listened to it and felt much better.

"Really?" She asked, with some relief on her face, "That's good." ”

Three days later, Lu Yan took the three children to Xuanfu, and let Zhao Niangzi and Guizi Niang have a good time nagging that she was ruthless, and the child was so young to go to that place, a group of old men could see the children, thirsty and hungry, and what should they do if they fell and touched Yunyun, Liu Meibao easily coaxed them and waited for childbirth with peace of mind.

At the beginning of April, a large crowd of ragged and desperate people crowded in front of the city gate of Taiyuan Prefecture, and to their delight, as rumored along the way, the city gate was not refused to be expelled, but the city gate was opened to let them in, but it still had to go through a certain identity test.

Two or three mighty sergeants entered the Dingguo General's Mansion, and Liu Meibao was standing in the hall, listening to the words of several scribes.

“… Since the invasion of the Tartars, Xuanfu, Beizhendingfu and other places have not been able to recover, and in addition, there have been two consecutive years of drought in the first year of Daping, and the north is already uninhabited for thousands of miles..."

“… The adults want to take these people into Shanxi. The sergeant stepped forward and saluted before speaking.

Liu Meibao nodded.

"Tell your lords that they can rest assured, no matter how much we have in Shanxi, we will accept it." She said, and then to the sergeant, "Tell them to be careful." so as not to get mixed in. ”

At this point, he paused again.

"It's better to kill by mistake than to put one." She said again.

The sergeants bowed their heads in response.

Liu Meibao leaned on her waist and exhaled, although her face was as soft and happy as before, but there was more perseverance in her eyebrows and eyes, Lu Yan can come to this day, Shanxi is his root, and it is the foundation that determines that his big tree will not fall and thrive, and there must be no mistakes. In other words, Lu Yan's big tree is getting bigger and bigger, and the responsibility on his shoulders is getting bigger and bigger, just as Ning Baohua and Wang Mo kept repeating in her ear, Lu Yan is no longer just one person, but the support of thousands of people.

The soreness in the waist and abdomen is becoming more and more obvious, and it is estimated that it will only be a few days before she is born, Liu Meibao slowly paced a few steps.

"Did the security guard say when you would be back?" She couldn't help but ask.

Just a while ago, Lu Yan did not go home to visit relatives every half a month as usual, but wrote to say that he had received an urgent report that he had gone to Baoan Prefecture on business.

"Your Excellency is rushing back." The sergeants said.

Liu Meibao nodded and didn't ask again. They were taken down to rest and drink, and they were all gone.

Four days later. The moment Lu Yan stepped into the house, their third child fell to the ground.

"This one looks like a guy again." Lu Yan said, looking at his son who was washed and wrapped and placed next to Liu Meibao, while wiping the sweat on Liu Meibao's forehead.

"There's no war out there, is there?" Liu Meibao asked.

Lu Yan was confused when he asked this.

"There was no disturbance or anything?" Liu Meibao asked again, laughing first.

Lu Yan understood and leaned over and kissed Liu Meibao's forehead.

"What nonsense?" He laughed.

"It's dirty." Liu Meibao avoided him and smiled.

The sound of running outside the door, and the dissuasion of the mother-in-law.

"Slow down, young master, take the wind in carefully." The servants hurriedly said.

Slow down. Lu Fang and Rou'er crept up at the door of the house like cats, lifting the curtain to look inside.

Liu Meibao and Lu Yan smiled at them, and the two of them immediately ran this way. After running two steps, remembering the servant's words, he hurriedly stopped his feet and moved slowly and carefully.

"So small.." Rou'er said in a milky voice, looking curiously at her younger brother in the sleeping package.

"The newborn children are so young." Lu Fang said to her with the appearance of a person who had come over, with a little calmness, "You were born like this, well, younger than your younger brother.."

Rou'er turned her head to look at him.

"How does my brother know?" She asked, pouting.

"Brother Ling was watching Ling be born, and the water in the bath when Ling was born was still boiled by my brother." Liu Meibao said with a smile.

Rou'er immediately looked at Lu Fang with a look of adoration, and Lu Fang raised her chin high and grinned.

"My brother is so ugly." Rou'er said again, looking at this crumpled and red-faced child who fell asleep with swollen eyes.

"When you grow up, you won't be ugly." Lu Yan hurriedly said, he just said that the child is like Liu Meibao, and Liu Meibao is not ugly.

"Huh?" Rou'er was very surprised, and hurriedly went to see Lu Fang, "Brother, were I also ugly when I was born?" ”

Lu Fang still remembers, but now he knows what to say and what not to say.

"It's not ugly, Rou'er is good-looking." He nodded.

Rou'er smiled with satisfaction, and then went to look at the little brother, and muttered to him as if comforting, Don't be afraid, it's good to be ugly now, and frowned as she spoke, and looked back at Lu Fang.

"Brother, my brother is ugly and good-looking now, so I was good-looking when I was a child, did I grow up ugly?" She asked, frowning.

Lu Fang was asked so much that he must not discuss the question of beauty and ugliness with women, which was taught his first lesson at a young age and remembered for a lifetime.

Lu Yan has been at home with Liu Meibao and the child, until twelve days later, Zhao Niangzi and his wife can come to take care of her, and Mrs. Liu was also helped by the second young grandmother to visit, by the way, she inspected the home, gave an in-depth guidance to Liu Meibao's housekeeping ability, and proposed that in order to ensure her status, she was advised to take a concubine for Lu Yan.

"You are getting older now, you have given birth to three children, and you are not afraid of losing your status, and your son-in-law's official position is getting higher and higher. Mrs. Liu said earnestly, "The six girls of the third aunt's grandmother's family are honest and good-looking..."

Before he finished speaking, Liu Meibao ordered him to expel the guest.

"When a jealous woman can control a man for a day or two. Can you manage it for a lifetime? Now that he is jealous of him, he is still fresh, and when he is older, what is the use. Old Lady Liu said suddenly.

"Why can't I control it? A man can control it or not, not in others, but in himself. Liu Meibao smiled and waved her hand.

Mrs. Liu muttered that she didn't know the good people and left in a huff.

Lu Yan knew about it, and felt that Mrs. Liu was too comfortable to live this period, so he asked the steward to cut off half of the Liu family's use.

The fifth day of the fifth month of the third year of Daping. The Ministry of War hurriedly passed on the documents, and finally three years later, Lu Yan was appointed as the chief soldier of Shanxi, which had not been obtained for a long time, and at the same time, the documents for the urgent transfer of troops came with it.

Because of the entry of Dongnu, the momentum is pressing, the emperor ordered the military department to be the generalissimo, give Shang Fang the sword, Xuanshan Xixuanfu three towns soldiers and horses to lead the troops to gather in Changping to help, within ten days, the violation of the limit is not enough, please punish it.

"I knew something was going to happen." Liu Meibao said with a smile. While helping Lu Yan pack up the clothes he was wearing, he said. "The eldest and the second are all on their backs, how can the third child be calm, I have caught up with the seismograph."

She laughed as she said it.

"Mabel, I'm going to be tired again." Lu Yan reached out and hugged her in his arms and whispered.

Soldiers and horses in other places can not be dispatched, but wherever the battle is indispensable, he Lu Yan is also burdened by fame.

"What is this called? Could it be that I am happy to be a bad seed that everyone looks down on? Liu Meibao smiled and kissed his chin, "Take care." ”

The day Lu Yan set off. Outside the city gate, there was a sea of people, a big banner with the word Lu fluttered brightly in the air, and the iron horses rumbled and the people were boiling.

Everyone is used to the soldiers going on expeditions, but this is the first time that thousands of soldiers and horses have been sent out to go on an expedition thousands of miles away.

"Mother, don't cry, follow Master Lu, you are all going to be promoted and make a fortune." The young soldiers comforted their relatives and were full of spirit.

"May the general return victorious!" Some people shouted, and the sound immediately dispersed, causing a frenzy.

Lu Yan had already moved forward to open the way, and when he heard the sound, he looked back here, but saw countless people waving their hands to send each other, and even more large families put out incense cases to worship pigs and sheep to pray for blessings.

"General bless me! Wansheng! ”

Lu Yan pulled out his waist knife and pointed it straight to the sky, and suddenly the sound of protecting his family and defending the country resounded inside and outside the city.

Liu Meibao reverently put three sticks of incense in front of the gods and Buddhas at home, and then went to see her off, but since she had not yet been confined, Lu Yan did not let her send it too far, Liu Meibao didn't want him to worry, and soon went home.

Lu Fang and Tie Spoon pulled their faces and made noise, because they were not allowed to follow and looked unhappy, Liu Meibao slapped them alone, drove them to read and write, and pulled Rou'er back to the house, and as soon as they arrived at the door, they saw a few maids with a panicked face, and the two elderly servants were telling them something.

"What's wrong?" Liu Meibao frowned and asked, worried that something had happened to her youngest son, so she hurriedly walked to the house.

"Madam, the nurse has just been breastfeeding, the little master may be a little spitting up, can you take a look?" A servant woman said with a smile, reaching out and pointing her to the transept.

Sure enough, there was something wrong with the child, Liu Meibao hurriedly retracted her feet towards the main house and walked this way.

"Mother, the incense for the gods has been extinguished." Rou'er's voice suddenly came from the main room.

The people outside were shocked when they heard it, and it turned out that no one paid attention to when Rou'er ran in, and the servants and maids looked very panicked.

Fragrant... Extinguished? Liu Meibao chuckled in her heart.

"Madam, I'll take a look, Miss Xu is in a hurry to bring it in, and the wind blows out." The servant woman laughed hurriedly.

Liu Meibao only felt that her feet weighed a thousand pounds and couldn't lift them.

"Okay, let's see, if that's the case, renew the incense for me, let her play while she goes, don't be here." She followed the maid's words, wanting to laugh, but it was very difficult to laugh.

The servant woman hurried in, and heard the whispering from within.

"Not me." Rou'er shouted aggrievedly, but was covered by the servant before she could finish speaking.

Liu Meibao hurriedly quickened her pace and entered the ear room, only to feel that her heartbeat was uncomfortable.

Is it the wind brought in by Rou'er, or the quality of the incense is not good, it must be, this kind of thing is just a coincidence, don't take it to heart, she said repeatedly in her heart, looking at the little son who was held in the arms of the wet nurse, and shook off the thoughts.

In July of the third year of Daping, Lu Yanzhong, the general soldier of Shanxi, divided his troops to Dingzhou and was besieged by thousands of Tartars, and his life and death were unknown.

----------------------------------------

It's wrapping up, and the previous books have come to an abrupt end, and I like the feeling of being unfinished, but it seems to be a bad end in everyone's eyes, so this time I'll make it clear to all of them.
