There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 688
[Chapter 688, Burning the Grain Ship]
Huoshaoliangchuan and the two imperial physicians who followed Dongli saw the process of Daohua Pharmaceutical, and decisively decided to copy it. After learning the pharmaceutical process, they also wanted to take away the drug boy cultivated by Daohua.
Regarding this, Gu Jian began to push people away unceremoniously: “I want to pick up ready-made everything,
why don’t you go to heaven?” If you dare to go too far, you can only return to Beijing in dismay.
When watching the two imperial physicians leave, they still did not forget to take away the few medicines they made during this period, Daohua was also speechless.
Dongli explained: “These two imperial physicians often accompany the army, so it is inevitable that they saved some money.”
Daohua: “It’s very good. Diligence and thrift are virtues.” In the
blink of an eye, it entered August.
The first day of August is Daohua’s birthday, and Daohua returns to Yan’s residence.
Mrs. Yan personally cooked a bowl of longevity noodles for Daohua.
“I like to eat the noodles made by my grandmother the most.”
Seeing that her granddaughter was eating deliciously, with a smile on her face, Mrs. Yan sighed, “Time flies so fast. I still remember your appearance when you were just born. In a blink of an eye, You are already a sixteen-year-old girl.” She
said with a worried look on her face.
“I don’t know when the war in northern Xinjiang will end, you can’t delay it for too long at your age.”
Daohua, who was eating noodles, was stunned, and said helplessly: “Grandma, don’t you want me to stay at home for a few more years? ”
Old lady Yan cast a sideways glance at Daohua: “Stay here for a few more years, do you want to become an old lady?”
Why is a teenage girl an old lady?
The generation gap is too serious, so Daohua resolutely gives up arguing with her grandmother and concentrates on eating noodles.
Old Madam Yan smiled: “You’re not at home. I don’t know. Since you passed away, many people have come to inquire about your situation. Your mother has had a lot of headaches in order to get rid of them.”
Daohua was surprised. She really doesn’t know.
The old lady Yan sighed: “Although the matter between you and Yeyang is up to Sister Gu, it is done in private after all. If the higher-ups don’t recognize it, it would be great if you can pass the Ming Road earlier. Your mother still has some feelings. I’m worried, and I dare not speak too much if I push back other people’s words.”
Daohua was silent, I’m afraid I have to wait for this matter, I have to wait for Xiao Yeyang to come back from Northern Xinjiang, I have to wait for the emperor’s approval, and Prince Ping, no matter what What is the relationship between Xiao Yeyang and him? After all, he is Xiao Yeyang’s father, and Xiao Yeyang’s marriage must have his nod.
Hey.
Thinking of the intricate relationship between the royal family, Daohua also wants to sigh.
She sometimes thought that if Xiao Yeyang didn’t express his love so clearly, or if he didn’t indulge her who was a bit out of line in many things, she might choose to retreat.
In the next few days, Daohua was not in a hurry to return to Taohua Village, because her sister-in-law Han Xinran was about to give birth, and she would bring her first nephew or niece in this world.
On the afternoon of August 11th, Han Xinran’s water broke and she started having seizures.
As soon as she received the news, Daohua helped Mrs. Yan to the eldest brother’s yard. When they arrived, Mrs. Li had already arrived, and Yan Wenxiu was walking up and down under the eaves anxiously.
Until the evening, the child was not born.
Daohua first sent the old lady back to the yard. When she came back, she saw that her elder brother was sweating profusely, and her mother was also fidgeting. She pondered for a while and took the initiative to find a topic to divert the two people’s attention: “Brother, you feel that you are going back to your hometown this time. What has happened to the uncle’s family?”
Yan Wenxiu went back to his hometown to build the imperial memorial archway. After the archway was built, he socialized with the clansmen in his hometown and the local gentry. He didn’t come back until last month. wife.
Yan Wenxiu stared at the delivery room, and said calmly: “There is no change, but Wenjie has improved a bit compared to before.”
Daohua asked again: “Really, the second uncle didn’t rely on his father’s power to cause trouble?”
Yan Wenxiu shook his head: “Father wrote to the patriarch himself to ask him to help look after the second uncle. I have experienced the last time, and the second uncle did not.” Dare to mess around like before. Besides, there is the second brother and his wife.”
Speaking of this, Yan Wenxiu talked a little more.
“When I went back this time, I found that my second brother has really grown up. In the past, my second uncle and aunt were the housekeepers of the second room, and my second brother ignored everything. Now the second room is managed by my second brother and his wife.”
“The day the archway was built . , Many people came to congratulate him, the second uncle was a little smug after drinking and being praised for a few words, the second younger brother saw it, and would take the initiative to restrain the second uncle’s behavior, and now the second room has more rules than before.”
“I’m back. At that time, the second aunt originally wanted the second sister and the fourth sister to come back with me, but the second brother dissuaded me.”
Hearing this, Daohua smiled and said: “It seems that the second brother who has the second sister-in-law has grown up and can The door has been established, and the second room is guarded by him and the second sister-in-law, so grandma and parents don’t have to worry about it anymore.”
Mrs. Li also smiled gratifiedly, to be honest, she was really worried about the second room, worried that they would be in their hometown If you cause trouble, it will harm the eldest and third families.
Wenjie can provoke the second wife, she and the master are happy to hear it.
Thinking of Zhu Qiyun, Mrs. Li sincerely felt that this girl was married to the right one.
On the twelfth day of the eighth month, Han Xinran gave birth to Yan Wenxiu’s eldest son.
“This little guy knows how to choose the day, and it happens to be the Mid-Autumn Festival when he washes the third day. He is in a hurry to come out and celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival with all of us!” Mrs. Li smiled from ear to ear as she hugged the child sent by the midwife.
Yan Zhigao was overjoyed when he learned of the birth of his eldest grandson, even if he faced the imperial court’s order to levy military rations again, he didn’t have such a headache anymore.
“The food collection was only done once last year, and it will be hard for the people to collect it again this year.” Master Xiao sighed.
Yan Zhigao: “The war in northern Xinjiang has been going on all the time, and the army needs to eat food. There is no other way.”
Master Xiao rejoiced and said: “Fortunately, our Ningmen Mansion is the first to promote potatoes. Even if the people have paid the military rations, they still have enough food left.”
Hearing this, Yan Zhigao also laughed. The eldest daughter.
Sometimes when I calm down and think about it, the eldest daughter played a very crucial role in his being able to get to where he is today. His official career began to go smoothly, as if it started after his eldest daughter came from his hometown.
The Ningmen Mansion handed over the required military rations on time.
Because of the loss of military rations last year, this time, Yan Zhigao was particularly careful, and kept guarding the ship himself after it was loaded.
It was the food that envoy Yuan Buzheng came to collect. Compared with last year’s merciless attitude, this time, envoy Yuan Buzheng was much more enthusiastic, and his words actually had a hint of win over.
There is no way, now many people in the capital are spreading privately that Mr. Xiao who has made great contributions in northern Xinjiang is Xiao Yeyang, and Mr. Xiao has two right-hand men surnamed Yan.
Surnamed Yan, still following Xiao Yeyang, not the two sons of the Yan family, who are they?
All the court officials have a tacit agreement, that is, try not to provoke Jin Lingwei, without him, they can’t stand the investigation!
I heard that Jin Lingwei has made a lot of contributions this time, and the two sons of the Yan family are already thousands of households. Once the fighting in northern Xinjiang stops, they will definitely be promoted again after returning. The Yan family can no longer offend at will.
Yan Zhigao responded politely, and he was relieved when the handover was over and the political envoy Yuan Bu was sent away.
Just when everyone was looking forward to the early pacification of the war in northern Xinjiang, in mid-September, the grain fleet transported to northern Xinjiang was robbed.
On the river, the fire burned for a full day and night.
When the news came back to the capital, the emperor was furious, and all the officials were heartbroken.
“Check, let me check carefully, I want to see, who leaked the delivery route of the grain team? But anyone who is related to this time, no matter who they are, will be arrested by me!”
