In the first month, Ming Lanying looked at more than a dozen account books in her idleness, and the ten books were packed into a group just enough to make up a hundred taels, so that Ye Jielu could send Meng Huaisu to exchange silver, and it just so happened that the house that Meng Huaisu bought in the village was on the other side of the village, not too far from their home.

Seeing that Ming Lanying took out the money box again and began to count the money, looking at her bright eyes, she didn't look like a rich businessman with a huge amount of money in her hands.

"Sister-in-law, why don't you read fifty copies and exchange them? Or wait until you've finished reading it all and change it together? ”

Ming Lanying played with a silver ingot, and said with a smile: "The money is only solid when it is in his own hands, what if he says that there is not so much silver to fool me?" ”

Hebai admired his fists and pushed his palms, "Sister-in-law is smart." ”

Ye Juelu came back with a hundred taels of silver tickets, Ming Lanying couldn't wait to take it, looked at the sun, and after confirming that it was true, she was satisfied and put it into the silver ticket mezzanine.

"Another hundred taels of receipt, happy today, Hebai, order! I'll cook whatever you want to eat today! ”

Ming Lanying put away the money box and took out the money bag she carried, she would count the remaining money in her pocket with Ye Juelu every month, often five taels of silver at the beginning of the month, and there was still a surplus at the end of the month, and if there was more left, she would take back the money box, and the money bag she carried with her was always controlled within ten taels. I saw that there were still ten taels of silver, and I was even happier when I had money left in my pocket.

Hebai cheered, ran out to discuss with Ning'er for a while, and ran back again, "Sister-in-law, we've thought about it!" I want to eat cabbage pork rolls, stewed chicken with scallion oil, fried crispy pork, plum cabbage button pork, handle meat, plum meat patty, ......"

Hebai reported the names of more than a dozen dishes in a row, and finally wanted a jar of fruit wine just brewed in winter and summer, Ming Lanying looked at her speechlessly.

"Fruit wine can't be, you can't drink it just brewed in winter and summer, you can only cook six dishes today, are you fat by three pounds just after the New Year? Why don't you get tired of seeing you with big fish and meat every day? ”

"Listen to your sister-in-law." Ye Jielu slapped Hebai on the back, "Go out and play two sets of sword moves, and do a handstand for an hour, Ning'er supervises." ”

Hebai's eyes widened, "Brother, I'm not fat, really!" ”

"Your face is round."

Ming Lanying pinched her somewhat round little face funny, when she first arrived here, the contours of her face were clear and distinct, and after staying here for so long, the lines on her face were much softer.

"Impossible! How much I just eat! ”

Hebai ran to find Dong Xia in tears, Imperial Physician Zhao's weighing utensils, and after a while, he came back crying and played a set of punches, and also played a set of swordsmanship, Ning Er watched it with relish.

Ming Lanying couldn't cry or laugh when she watched through the window, and Hebai was like a hit husky at this time.

Ye Jielu sat opposite her to help her grind ink, and secretly looked at her a few times and hesitated, like a low-cost little daughter-in-law, she was the evil mother-in-law......

Ming Lanying slapped the table and looked at him impatiently, "What's the matter?" If you have something to say, go to Meng Huaisu to get the silver and come back and grind and chirp, but he is still not a man! Do you want to tell me that you have a crush on him? ”

“…… Don't get cranky. Ye Jielu helplessly supported his forehead, "There is news from the capital, I want to tell you, but I am afraid that you will be unhappy when you hear it." ”

"Don't talk about what upsets me."

"But ......," Ye Juelu hesitated, "You will be unhappy when you know it in the future." ”

Ming Lanying smiled angrily, "Can you do something good every day to make me happy?" ”

Ye Juelu snorted: "Not at present, there will be in the future." ”

Ming Lan Ying: "......"

Thinking about when she first came, Ye Jielu gave her the feeling that she was a cold and decisive all-round good man, and there was nothing bad about her except that she didn't like her. But how did it become like this puppy who only sells cuteness when he twists the ink? Could it be that the husky attribute of Crane White is contagious?

"On the day of the New Year's Day, the emperor took hundreds of officials to the city tower to enjoy the night view of the lanterns, the queen and several concubines accompanied by the women of the third rank or above in the imperial court, your grandfather brought your sister Ming Lishu to go together, and Ming Lishu brought Song Shanshan."

Ye Jielu knew that Ming Lanying hated Song Shanshan very much, not because she was jealous, but because she simply hated Song Shanshan, and she hated anything that Song Shanshan was exposed to, but this incident was caused because of Song Shanshan.

Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, he saw Ming Lanying roll his eyes, and Ming Lanying looked at him coldly, "On this occasion, how did Ming Lishu get in?" ”

"There is news that she will become Prince Heng in the middle of next month."

Ming Lanying was shocked, "Wait! Prince Heng and Princess? Isn't Prince Heng frail and sickly? Isn't it still necessary to make a golden eagle bone tonic? This year, you are expensive? How did Ming Lishu become Prince Heng's princess? ”

Ye Juelu sighed deeply, "Prince Heng is only thirty-two this year, the previous princess had a blood collapse in childbirth five years ago, and died with the child, although Prince Heng has countless concubines in the backyard, but there are no heirs under his knees, Ming Lishu is carefully selected, although it is only a continuation of the princess, but the identity of the Ming family is there, and she has also done it." ”

"No wonder Ming Lishu hasn't talked about family affairs at the age of nineteen this year, so she was waiting for this." Ming Lanying shook her head, "Then what is she pulling Song Shanshan to do on this occasion?" ”

Ye Juelu saw that she really didn't understand, and patiently explained: "Song Shanshan and Ming Lishu are good friends. ”

Ming Lanying was stunned, Ming Lishu was carefully raised by the Ming family for the position of the princess, the Song family used to be a close minister by the emperor's side, how did Song Shanshan play with Ming Lishu? Is it for the sake of Ye Juelu?

Ming Lanying frowned tightly, and the two hearts and eyes were together, which always made people a little subconsciously want to be wary.

"So what happened on New Year's Day?"

Ye Juelu's voice was low, "The emperor is in a good mood, let people chant poems, the best leader is rewarded, Song Shanshan wrote a poem, and was named the leader by the emperor." ”

"And then what did the emperor reward her?" Ming Lanying nodded in response, it was no surprise that Song Shanshan would be named the leader, and those who can play with Ming Lishu can't play with others without any specialty.

Ye Juelu: "She shouted for me in public and asked the emperor to forgive me." ”

Ming Lanying: "............?" ”

This operation makes people a little unresponsive, Song Shanshan shouted for Ye Jielu and begged for forgiveness, so what happened to her? Exiled sinners?

Ye Jielu also had a headache at the moment, "The emperor was also moved by her, let me write a letter of reflection, and then I can go back to Beijing to stand by." ”

Ming Lanying smiled, holding her chin and looking at Ye Juelu, "Then did the emperor be moved by her deep affection and righteousness, and then give you a marriage?" ”

"Don't make a fuss, we're legally married now."

"It's just a piece of paper, and the emperor doesn't agree that it's waste paper."

Ye Jielu endured his anger, looked at the smiling Ming Lanying, gritted his teeth and said: "We haven't separated yet, and the emperor doesn't care about this, and we already have Ning'er, which is an inseparable husband and wife." ”

"Oops! You can eat food indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense! And the book is in my place. Ming Lanying was taken aback, and hurriedly waved her hand to clear up the relationship, "What else is inseparable, and use Ning'er as an excuse, the whole village knows that you and Song Shanshan are a match made in heaven, and Lang has a concubine, but I was broken up by my wicked mandarin duck, and now Song Shanshan is brave enough to pay for your love, you also have to show a little, I understand." ”

Ming Lanying said this purely to make fun of him and have fun, she also knew that Ye Jielu would not have anything to do with Song Shanshan, if there was a relationship, it would have been a long time ago, but it seemed that Ye Jielu was in a hurry.

Ye Jielu now regrets that he gave her the book of harmony and departure in the first place, stretched out his hand with a gloomy face, and held her cheeks with two big palms, forcing the two to look at each other, his voice was low and powerful, "I'll just say it again, I don't like Song Shanshan, whether it was in the past or now, or in the future, I will not have anything to do with Song Shanshan!" ”

"I'm picky, and I can't look down on anyone, I can only see you, my heart is full of you, and I only like you."

Ming Lanying was stunned, the rough and warm palm next to her cheek was reassuring, but she felt that her whole person was gradually heating up, and she was a little brain-burning.

Seeing that she didn't react for a long time, Ye Jielu couldn't help but feel a little lost, let go of his hand, and didn't look at her.

"But whether I write a letter of reflection or not, the emperor has to see me once, the recall order is still half a month away, I want to take Ning'er back to face the saint, the emperor has seen Ning'er a few times, and he likes him very much."

At the mention of her precious son, all the charming thoughts in Ming Lanying's mind were forgotten, "No, Ning'er is too young, and it is easy to be in danger when she goes back with you." ”

Ye Jielu rubbed his hands, trying to feel the delicate softness in his palm just now, "This square inch of land will not stay for a lifetime after all, I want to take Ning'er out for a walk, see the world outside, if you don't worry, how about returning to Beijing with me?" ”

"The whole family is back in Beijing?" Ming Lanying sneered, "Ye Juelu, are you sober or crazy?" The Ming family in the capital is eyeing you and me, I dare to believe that as long as our family takes a step out of the side, the killers sent by the Ming family will block the official road! ”

After Ming Lanying made money in Biansai, she thought about where she would be in the future, and she would not stay in this barren and bitter cold place for the rest of her life anyway. Some people are destined to be things that are not in the pool, such as Ye Juelu, who is a tiger, and there will always be a day when the tiger roars and shakes the mountains and forests. But she didn't want to get involved in the quagmire in the capital, the game of the superior was not something that she could play as an ordinary person, she didn't have that ability.

"No, I promise!"

"You promise a fart! There is a bright wave of waves staring at Biansai, it is your business for the emperor to call you back to Beijing, you alone can be a saint who can ensure your integrity, but I don't dare to let Ning'er take this risk, I will be his son. ”

Ye Jielu looked at her firm eyes, which were not trusted, and suddenly felt a tingling in his heart, "No, I will protect you, we will have more children in the future, Ming Langtao is not our enemy......"

Ming Lanying was stunned, "What do you mean?" ”

What a lot of children? What is not an enemy?

"Literally."

Ming Lanying felt that her brain might have been heated by Ye Jielu's palm just now, and she couldn't turn it around.

In the midst of a frantic brainstorming, Hebai, who was playing with a sword in the yard, suddenly shouted angrily, "What are you doing again!?" ”

"Is Sister Lan Ying at home?"

Ming Langtao's fox-like voice, Ming Lanying will never hear it wrong. She glanced at Ye Jielu and opened her mouth to complain, but she hadn't figured out his words yet, and it seemed that it was a little too early to complain, and she swallowed the words when they came to her mouth.

"Hebai, let him in."

Then Ming Langtao swaggered in, and Meng Huaisu and Hebai stood near the house on the left and right. Ming Langtao looked at the two of them with a smile, "Why are you sitting on the kang in broad daylight?" Didn't delay your good work, did you? ”

Ming Lanying snorted, "The six cousins are all coming in, and you can't do anything in front of outsiders!" ”

"It's still Lan Ying's sister with sharp teeth." Ming Langtao sat beside Ye Jielu with his butt, and pushed his elbow against him, "I'm here to say hello to my brother-in-law in advance, the recall order is still half a month away, you have to prepare to write a reflection book, write it well, the emperor will let you return to him, if the writing makes him dissatisfied, you may have to come back again, do you want me to ask Huaisu to write you a model text, you copy it?" ”

Ming Lanying glanced at him suspiciously, "Are you so kind?" ”

Ming Langtao smiled, "Of course, this favor is not for nothing, I have a small request for my brother, the side is barren, there are few acquaintances to accompany me, and I am very lonely for my brother!" ”

"Okay." Ming Lanying smiled, "Then I will reluctantly stay with my sixth cousin." ”

Ming Langtao was stunned when he heard this, and he looked at her in disbelief, and then looked at Ye Juelu beside him, "You, you really don't want to go back to Beijing?" Go back to Ming's house and have a look? ”

He also thought that Ming Lanying would be eager to set off quickly, so he wanted to come over and delay it, but he didn't expect Ming Lanying's reaction to surprise him.

Ming Lanying picked up the peeled chestnuts and chewed them indifferently, "What are you going to do when you go back?" My grandfather didn't like me, so I might as well stay here. ”

Ming Langtao glanced at Ye Jielu, who was silent, raised his eyebrows, and looked at it playfully.

Ye Juelu said in a deep voice: "Protect them for me, otherwise I will come back and pick your skin." ”

Ye Jielu said this in front of Ming Lanying, he confessed directly to Ming Lanying, Ming Lanying also figured it out, raised her eyebrows, although she was a little surprised, she still looked at Ming Langtao who was forced to fall off the horse without changing her face, and was so shocked that she couldn't laugh.

"It turned out to be my own person, and the sixth cousin hid it quite deeply?"

Ming Langtao also put away his shocked expression, "Sister Lan Ying, don't say that!" I'm just trying to save my life in the worst-case scenario, and you're going to have to keep this thing, and only a few of us know about it, plus you, five of us. If it weren't for my brother-in-law, I wouldn't have brought Meng Huaisu alone to this broken place where birds don't, so I also ask Sister Lanying to keep it a secret! ”

Ming Langtao is the one that the Ming family's huge heir system likes, except for Ming Lishu, the old lady Ming likes and values the most, but he actually secretly Chen Cang became the emperor's person!

The amount of information is too much, Ming Lanying even drank a pot of tea to ease up, and then looked at the relationship between Ye Jielu and Ming Langtao, the two of them were obviously very familiar.

Ye Juelu said: "Protect their mother and son." ”

"Don't worry!" Ming Langtao looked at her with a smile, "This is my smart and capable sister Lanying, I have to provide for it." ”

Ming Lanying rolled her eyes, since everyone here was her own people, she didn't bother to look at these two bad people, and went outside to find Hebai for a breath.

As soon as Ming Lanying left, Ming Langtao directly hooked Ye Jielu's neck with one arm, "Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, you are still too tender, you have no status at home, and your husband is still in charge, do you want to teach you a few tricks for your brother?" ”

Ye Jielu pushed his head away indifferently, suddenly thought of something, opened his mouth and said the matter, Ming Langtao listened, laughed very disregarded the image, and bent over with laughter.

"You also have today! It's up to you! Let you pretend to be cold every day! It's normal for people to distrust you, come on, come on, what does my brother say, it's also a harmonious person in the backyard, I'll teach you ......"

Ming Langtao whispered a lot in his ear, and smiled obscenely after speaking, "Follow my brother's method, I promise to let you catch her!" ”

After Ming Langtao left, Ye Jielu was still pursing his lips and pondering.

A few days later, Hebai also heard the news that Ye Juelu was going back to Beijing from Imperial Physician Zhao, and she cried and wanted to follow, afraid that her brother would be gone as soon as he returned to the capital, and he was also afraid that he would be blinded by the fancy world in the capital and didn't want them. In the end, he was suppressed by Ye Jielu by force, and honestly followed Ming Lanying's side.

"My brother is no longer here, so it's up to me to protect my sister-in-law!"

Ming Lanying slapped her on the back, "What nonsense!" There is no door on the small mouth, and the net is grinning day by day. ”

Although the recall order still has half a month to arrive, the ending is a sure thing, Ye Jielu has been starting to sort things out as if nothing is in the past few days, that is, he is always wary of Meng Huaisu in the same village.

"Hebai, I'm handing you an important task, but whenever a man approaches here, you have to be vigilant, your sister-in-law is too recruiting now, you must guard your sister-in-law and wait for me to come back."

Hebai clenched his fist solemnly, "I will not disgrace my mission!" ”

Ye Jielu turned his head to Ning'er again and said: "Ning'er, you have to protect your mother at home, your father will come back soon, don't let strangers approach your mother, especially Meng Huaisu, and supervise your mother to eat well, she will eat more with you." ”

Ning Er nodded again and again with red eyes, "Dad, don't worry, people that Dad doesn't like, Ning Er doesn't like it!" But Daddy must come back early! ”

Hearing the conversation between the three of them from beginning to end, the current Ming Lanying was a little speechless.

The recall order is still five days away, which means that Ye Jielu is still leaving in five days, Ming Lanying is still living in a hurry, Ye Jielu is anxious, thinking of Ming Langtao's words, he feels that he will try it tonight.

Before going to bed at night, Ye Jielu asked Ning Er to supervise Hebai to drink tonight's medicine, and he said to Ming Lanying with a heavy face.

"This time I will return to Beijing, the future is dangerous, I can guarantee that I will enter Beijing intact, but I dare not guarantee whether I can come back."

Ming Lanying was still yawning and her eyes were hazy with tears, but now when she heard it, she immediately became energetic, frowning and snorting three times in a row, "What nonsense are you!" You just go to see the emperor, is your love for so many years like tissue paper? ”

"I'm serious." Ye Jielu's firm and hot eyes stared at her tightly, "If I can come back safe and sound this time, I am marrying you once, are you willing to marry me?" ”
