Chapter 207: The Wind Rises (5)

In the drizzle, the New Year Festival in Central and South China was ushered in. (天天Chinese.)^//^ This New Year Festival is not destined to be too hot. News from the border has been transmitted to Central and South China through various news channels.

Although Jiang Wanmu spent a lot of time in the Shang family every day, she could still occasionally hear Uncle Mingzi's sighs from time to time, and listened to him sigh and angrily mention the war.

The surrounding area of the Ning Dynasty has been quiet for a hundred years, and the king has been clear in politics for a hundred years, and the country has been prosperous like magnificence. It's a pity that the days of good weather have passed for too long, and most of the generals have just cleaned up some small bandits in the country, and each time they have won with more and fewer victories. The group of officers and soldiers who had just come down from the border were the ones who had really seen the bloody killing field, and they had already gone straight to the border, but they were still much more naïve with the generals on the other side who had been tempered on the battlefield for a long time.

The generals of the Ning Dynasty who have just emerged, so far, the battle situation has lost more and won less. Dr. Shang sighed for a long time when he was worried about the country and the people, and when he looked at his face every day, he knew that the news from Zhongnan today was good or bad. Doctor Shang's eyebrows furrowed into a small peak, and Jiang Wanmu had to put a little effort into copying it, so that during the New Year's Festival, she didn't dare to rest lightly. Jiang Feiyang and Jiang Lazy, she was completely entrusted to Wen Jiuniang's care, and the affairs in her yard were handed over to Bilu to take care of.

Jiang Wanmu held the bound booklet of wound herbs, walked down the long eaves, turned left and right, and walked to Dr. Shang's study. She looked at Uncle Mingzi from a distance, holding a black pottery bowl in her hand, standing outside the study. After Jiang Wanmu approached the study, Uncle Ming Zi shook his head at her and motioned for her to wait outside the door like him. Jiang Wanmu heard the voice of Dr. Shang speaking from the room, and she felt that she was too close to the door of the study, which was a little inappropriate. She took many steps back slightly, and waited far under the eaves.

Jiang Wanmu's eyes looked at the sky in all directions lightly, and the drizzle of rain that fell was like this, like a shadow, a trace of it. There is little snow in the winter in central and southern China, but the rain is like a delicate woman who can pretend to be a delicate woman, so clear and shallow to break and keep falling, every rain is ethereal falling from the sky, falling on the ground into nothingness, unable to stir up a small rain flower.

"Can you, think about it?" Dr. Shang's sentence is obviously stressed. "You, go back to the capital, Jiuniang 、、。" This is Wen Qinghe's voice. **After Jiang Wanmu heard this voice, she immediately felt that the position she was standing in was still extremely inappropriate. She sighed softly and hugged the book, her eyes admiring the rain in the courtyard, and she slowly moved out many steps until she was really far from the door of the study. Uncle Mingzi saw her movements, and a light smile appeared on his lips.

Jiang Wanwan didn't enjoy the rain for long, Wen Qinghe came out of the study, and he bowed deeply to Uncle Mingzi at the door of the study, Uncle Mingzi was so shocked that he quickly dodged away, and said, "Master Wen, this etiquette has passed." Wen Qinghe said: "I am grateful to Uncle Mingzi for his daily guidance." Uncle Mingzi shook his head again and again and said: "Master Wen, you can figure out those things slowly, and you can figure it out, you have this talent, and sooner or later you will become a great expert in this industry." ”

Wen Qinghe smiled and watched Uncle Mingzi enter the study, he saw Jiang Wanmu holding the book from a distance, looking at the slight smile on her lips. He remembered what Wen Jiuniang had said to him, 'Brother, if you must get married, it is better to choose to be lazy.' Although she is remarried and has two naïve children, she has two shops in the capital, she is capable and willing to do it, she can afford to raise two children, and she will not be greedy for your share of wealth. Such a woman with a gentle temperament, as long as you treat her and her children honestly, she will definitely treat Niuniu sincerely. ”

Wen Qinghe walked over slowly, walked in front of the woman with a light breeze, and saw her holding a book and bending down shallowly and saluting, and politely greeting: "Hello Master Wen, how is Niuniu?" Wen Qinghe replied to Jiang Wanmu's etiquette and whispered: "Jiang Niangzi, I am following the sergeant from Zhongnan, and I am going to the border in the near future. Niu Niu has entrusted her uncle's care. I also took down the paperwork from the government, so that I don't have to worry about my mother and her uncle's family robbing people. ”

Jiang Wanmu listened to Wen Qinghe's words, and an astringent look inevitably appeared on her face. Except for the politeness on their faces, she and Wen Qinghe really don't have such a deep friendship with each other. Jiang Wanmu secretly gasped, she didn't dare to reveal anything on her face, she smiled faintly and said: "Niu'er is sensible and cute, and the people of her uncle's family will definitely love her." Her eyes looked at the door of Dr. Shang's study at this time, and she couldn't wait for Uncle Mingzi to come out of it quickly.

Wen Qinghe saw her expression, he looked at her calmly, and said in a soft voice: "Mrs. Jiang, after I come back safely from the border, I have something to say to you." Jiang Wanmu heard what he said, withdrew her looking eyes, she raised her eyes to look at him in surprise, and said bluntly: "Master Wen, if it's convenient, can you speak up now?" Wen Qinghe shook his head lightly and said: "The border is uneven, I don't know if I can come back safely after I go, some things are still waiting until I come back, and then I will talk to you in detail." ”

After Wen Qinghe finished speaking, he left quickly, leaving Jiang Wanmu standing there with her mouth half open, with a puzzled look on her face, she didn't know what was the big deal with Wen Qinghe, which was worthy of such caution and prudence. After Uncle Mingzi approached her, she realized that she had forgotten to go with the person who traveled far away, and said, "Peace," Jiang Wanmu hopes that Wen Qinghe can come back safely, Niuniu no longer has a biological mother, and she can no longer lose the only biological father she can rely on.

Uncle Ming Zi looked at Jiang Wanmu's expression and asked, "What did Master Wen say that made you so surprised?" Jiang Wanmu glanced at Uncle Mingzi a few times, and said with some hesitation: "Master Wen said that after returning from the border, he had something to say to me, about now that time is tight, and it is not clear to me about Niuniu for a while." He is a big man to discipline his daughter, which is a little inconvenient in the end. Uncle Mingzi heard Jiang Wanmu's words, looked at her with a frank expression, smiled and nodded and said, "Well, I think that's the case too." ”

Jiang Wanmu heard Uncle Mingzi's words, and the expression on her face was even more relaxed. Uncle Mingzi's words dispelled the little guess in her heart. She walked briskly towards Dr. Shang's study, she had deep doubts about the relationship between men and women in her previous life, and since this life, when a woman lives so hard, she is even more afraid to yearn for the love between men and women. After she had two young children, she no longer had any expectations for the love between men and women. She just wants to protect her two children in this life, and watching them bloom and live freely, she can spend the rest of her life safely and comfortably.

Jiang Wanmu put dozens of volumes in her hand on the table and said to Dr. Shang: "These are all the booklets of wound herbs that I copied, and I have checked them all. However, this is a big matter between life and death, and I still have to ask Dr. Shang and Dr. Shang Wu to examine it carefully. Doctor Shang opened a book, looked at the upright handwriting on it, and said to Jiang Wanmu: "You are attentive." Jiang Wanmu replied with a faint smile: "Doctor Shang is the real doctor who worries about the country and the people, and I just do my best." ”

After Shang Mingshi and Jiang Lazy became engaged, Jiang Wanmu returned all the monthly salary given by Dr. Shang to Dr. Shang and his wife. She smiled and said to Dr. Shang and his wife: "What Dr. Shang has done, in a big way, is a great thing for the benefit of the country and the people, and in a small way, I have followed the copying these days and learned some superficial things." There is also the Shang family who has been taking care of the meals of our mother and son, and even my family, the Shang family has taken care of one or two. From the first day I officially worked for Dr. Shang, I didn't think about accepting the monthly salary, but I was worried that if I didn't accept it, Dr. Shang would not be able to tell me to do things with peace of mind.

What Dr. Shang did was a great deed of meritorious deeds, but in the final analysis, it was all about serving the people, and it didn't have much interest for himself. I also want to accumulate some merit for my two children, and I have already made up my mind that these silver taels are only temporarily stored in my place, and they will be returned to the Shang family in the future. Now that Ming Shi and Lazy have made a marriage, these silver taels should be returned to their original owners. Mrs. Shang looked at her with a look of affirmation, and at the signal of Dr. Shang, she took back the silver taels with her own hands.

Jiang Wanmu felt that since then, several people in Dr. Shang's family, except for Wen Jiuniang, could really accept her. Of course, after Wen Jiuniang heard about this, she hurried to her, looked at her like a fool, and said to her: "Little lazy, the Shang family's great business is not bad for those few silvers, don't look at my father and my husband who are idle at home every day, and don't open the door to treat people, I feel that they can't earn a lot of silver." Father and husband are both quite capable, and the inspection of medicinal herbs by the two of them is not in the top two in the Ning Dynasty, but they can also be ranked in the top ten, and the Shang family may not be able to use silver and silver. ”

Jiang Wanmu listened to Wen Jiuniang's words, and chuckled to comfort her: "Jiu Niang, I'm not as bad as you think. Dr. Shang asked me to do a big thing, and he didn't need to add my name, and he added my name. I will have a good reputation in the future, why should I have to ask Dr. Shang to pay me his own money. On weekdays, the Shang family has taken care of me quite a lot, and I want to repay my kindness, but I can't know myself and the other, knowing that Dr. Shang and Dr. Shang Wuwu are doing, and there is not much profit to be retained, and I have to take the silver taels. ”

Wen Jiuniang shook her head and looked at Jiang Wanmu, and said in a low voice: "No wonder my father insists on being lazy, I thought it was the credit that I talked to my mother in private, so that my father didn't listen to my grandmother's letters again and again." It turned out that my father had a more long-term vision, and my family was blessed. Lazy has a mother like you, she will definitely not be petty in the future. Hee-hee, she would be a good sister-in-law. "To be continued.
