After Yan Mingge came back in the evening, he heard from the servant that the teacher came to find Lin Chu, and his face turned a little stinky.

I couldn't help but say a few sour words while eating.

Because Wei Rou suffered from that trip before, her fetal breathing has not been very stable, and the doctor has always prescribed medicinal food.

Wei Rou felt that Lin Chu was pregnant now. In folk saying, fetal energy would be more or less contagious. She was afraid that it would be bad for Lin Chu's fetus and eat or something, so she didn't use it with them again. Lin Chu said it a few times and Wei Rou didn't listen, and she couldn't force it anymore.

When the young couple was having their meals, Yan Mingge was another person who didn't like to keep his maids to serve him, so he often teased Lin Chu.

After being with this person for so long, Lin Chu could not know what Yan Mingge is? When he heard his sour words, he knew that he was probably unhappy in his heart that he had met the teacher.

She picked up a chopstick for Yan Mingge and said, "I came to apologize specifically. I can't turn people out, right?"

Yan Mingge used chopsticks to pluck the braised pork in the bowl, and snorted from his nose, without saying a word.

Lin Chu ate two chopstick dishes, remembering the current situation in the school, he couldn't help but sigh again: "I hope that all girls can go to school, know a few words and understand some principles, which will always be beneficial in life."

Speaking of the later, she simply stopped chopsticks and discussed with Yan Mingge: "My husband, these people don't want to send girls to school. They think that men and women are seven years old and different seats, and boys and girls go to school together. This is not in line with the rules. Let's just start a girl school and hire a female teacher to teach those girls."

Yan Mingge said: "Now that the war in the Northwest has just ended, and many families are still a problem to have enough food. Those who can send their children to school are considered to be some good families. If you set up a female school, it is better to wait until the world is settled and people's livelihood will improve. Otherwise, even if you set up a female school, there will be few people going there."

After listening to Yan Mingge's analysis, Lin Chu realized that he had thought things too simple.

No matter which dynasty, people's livelihood is always linked to court politics. If today is not peaceful, some political systems have not yet come out, and the people are living a difficult life. On the way to escape, they may be hit by officers and soldiers, and some young and middle-aged people will be arrested and served as soldiers.

If the Southern Capital is pacified, then this is the fortress outside the pass that connects the Western Regions. If trade is allowed here, it will definitely become a wealthy place and the people will live a better life.

***

When Lin Chu's fetus was three months old, the heat in the northwest was already particularly hot.

Lin Chu never leaves the house every day, and Jing He always helps with the fan, and it is so hot.

Yan Mingge asked someone to expand the pond in the next yard and build a pavilion above the pond. The pavilion was indeed much cooler, and Lin Chu and Wei Rou almost hid there during the day.

Wei Rou has been having a stomach for seven months, and she may have to give birth in two months. Lin Chu is also planning to hire a wife and a wet nurse, but there are still not enough servants in the house. The few that Yan Mingge bought back last time were only able to serve people, and the other three were arranged to do some work such as sweeping and washing.

Taking advantage of this time to invite the Wen Po and the wet nurse, Lin Chu simply bought some servants to enter the mansion.

The people sent by Guanya were all sent by Yan Mingge to check their background. They didn’t exist because they were other people’s eyeliners.

Lin Chu didn't quite believe in Yan Mingge's vision of picking people, so he decided to choose it himself.

Yan Mingge is now the top leader of Yaocheng. If he wants to buy someone in his house, the people with Guanya naturally have to do a good job. The maids who sent him look like they are all smart and clever.

After thinking about it over and over again, Lin Chu bought eight maids. Lin Chu was afraid that Tangyuan would not be able to serve him alone, so he had to send another maid over. When Wei Rou's child was born, he was not very relieved to hire a wet nurse and had to accompany him to take care of the child. Lin Chu had Jing He around, but when there were too many things in the house, Jing He was also unable to do anything. Lin Chu also prepared two maids to serve him, and one of them would have to take care of the child in the future. In addition, there were three maids in needlework.

Although there were two pregnant women in the kitchen, they were too old and sometimes exhausted when busy. Lin Chu bought two more women in the stove, plus five tycoons.

Lin Chu wanted to find another mother in charge, but she didn't dare to use the stranger. Zhao's wife introduced an old sister to her. Zhao Chuzi and his wife were originally working in the Yong'an Hou Mansion, but later they came to the northwest, and they also worked for wealthy families.

Later, when Zhao Chuzi was recalled, Zhao Ma Zi also quit her job at the mansion. Later, when the war, the owner of the family packed up his bags and fled. The servants in the mansion took the contract and dispersed. Zhao Ma Zi knew that the servant was named Li, who was a native of Yaocheng. Because he was old, he was afraid that he would die outside when he fled, so he simply stayed in Yaocheng.

Lin Chu is indeed no one available at the moment, so he asked Mrs. Zhao to ask her to take the mother in charge to see her.

After seeing it, Lin Chu was indeed satisfied. The mother in charge was a loyal and capable person. After handing over the contract, Madam Li came to the house soon.

In the following days, the nurse of the Wen Po and the Wet Girl was also found, and Lin Chu also made up his mind.

By chance, when Song Tuo mentioned that even Qingshan was still cooking salt in a large pot. Lin Chu wanted to go over and teach them how to dry salt, but Yan Mingge stopped him.

She is now a double-body, and Yan Mingge is very nervous when she becomes a father for the first time.

But seeing that Lin Chu kept talking about this, he said that he had found a good man from the south to dry sea salt to work as a long-term worker.

The steps of drying lake salt and sea salt in summer are not much different. Those who make a living by drying sea salt know more about the tricks, so Lin Chu no longer cares about it.

The Sixth Prince was about to start a war, and a large number of steel weapons were sent from the northwest to Baima Pass, but the Sixth Prince had never sent a message to Yan Mingge to lead his troops there. Yan Mingge was a calm person. After practicing troops every day, he went to the farmland to see it.

The Qiang City was destroyed by barbarians before. In the late spring, Yan Mingge sent people to repair it. It was not until the end of summer that Qiang City was revitalized.

However, because I heard that the city was slaughtered there, it was so yin that except for the garrisoned troops, the fleeing people were unwilling to go to Qiang City.

On this day, Yan Mingge muffled, but said he would take Lin Chu back to Qiang City to take a look.

Lin Chu was slightly stunned and nodded.

The two set off early in the morning and didn't take their servants. Yan Mingge drove by himself.

It was noon when we arrived in Qiang City. The sun was so vicious that Lin Chu did not dare to get off the carriage, so he lifted up the curtain and looked around.

The broken Qiang City Tower was obviously repaired. On the city tower was a row of mighty Dazhao soldiers, with the red and black-lined "Yan" flags swaying in the wind. For some reason, Lin Chu suddenly felt a little awkward in his heart.

When the guard saw that it was Yan Mingge, he did not dare to stop the car and asked him to drive into the city.

Now that the three forces in Dazhao are in power, the "Zhao" flag is inserted on the city tower, which makes it difficult to distinguish which side of the person. Here, the "Yan" flag was inserted five years ago. Now, the Qiang City is taken back, and Yan Mingge has also inserted the "Yan" flag back on the city tower.

Lin Chu looked at the familiar streets along the road and found that the houses had obviously been renovated. The dirt and blood from the war were wiped out, but the original excitement could no longer be restored to its original hustle and bustle.

The carriage entered Nanxiang. The area of ​​Nanxiang was in a remote area. The poor families lived there. After the barbarian broke the city, they did not visit here. The houses there were not damaged much, so they did not repair them much, and preserved the original appearance of this place.

Seeing the low soil cultivation house where I once lived, the past scenes appeared in my heart, Lin Chu felt mixed emotions.

When she saw Aunt Song’s house and remembered that day’s farewell, Lin Chu felt wet her eyes. It was the first person she had to treat her well in this strange dynasty.

The carriage finally stopped on a low slope, and there was a small grave under the corner of the slope.

Yan Mingge took Lin Chu out of the carriage and led her to the grave. His voice was faint and he couldn't hear any emotion: "Aunt Song, Uncle Song, the barbarian has been beaten out of the pass. I'll take Chu'er back to see you."

He came back to see him when the Qiang City was first broken last year, and only buried Uncle Song at the time. This year, he defeated the barbarians and recovered Qiang City, so he found a piece of land and buried Aunt Song and Uncle Song together.

Lin Chu looked at the grave and knew that Aunt Song and Uncle Song were buried together. For no reason, her eyes heated up and tears fell down.

Yan Mingge brought white ghost coins and slowly burned them in front of Aunt Song and his wife's graves. Lin Chu followed him to burn paper money while crying.

Yan Mingge sprinkled the pot of wine he brought from his home in front of the grave: "I know Uncle Song is so good. This pot is worthy of the barbarian!"

Half of the pot left, he raised his head and drank it himself, threw the pot into the wilderness, wiped the wine stains on the corner of his mouth and said, "When the world of Dazhao is pacified, I will bring another pot of good wine to see you!"

The clouds blocked the sunlight and only poured a few golden rays from the weak part of the clouds.

The unburned paper money was swept everywhere by the wind, and the grass and trees were rustling on the hillside. Yan Mingge hugged Lin Chu and walked towards the carriage down the slope.

When I returned to Yaocheng, it was almost dark and the weather was hot. Although I was in the carriage, Lin Chu was still sweating all over.

Jing He arranged the kitchen to burn hot water to bathe Lin Chu.

Now that there are more people in the house, the efficiency of doing business is indeed much faster. Lin Chu had just changed into clean clothes and had already prepared the meal when he came out.

She felt relieved after drinking a bowl of iced sour plum pawn.

Yan Mingge is in good health, so he went to the clean room and took a cold shower and came out soon.

Because he was indoors, he didn't care much about his clothes. When he saw Lin Chu sitting at the dining table, he casually put on his clothes and walked over.

Lin Chu handed him a bowl of iced sour plum soup, and then he found that Yan Mingge's clothes were not well closed, revealing a small piece of honey-colored chest. It was supposed to be that he was sloppy when he wiped his body, and there were a few drops of water on his chest, which looked tempting for no reason.

The face that looks like a jade crown is even more fascinating.

The two new maids around Lin Chu were learning rules a few days ago with the manager, and only came to serve them today.

It was the first time that the two maids had a close contact with Yan Mingge, and they couldn't help but blush when they saw it. In the battle of Yaocheng, they had heard of Yan Mingge's name, but they never thought that Yan Duwei had such a handsome face.

One of them was quite sensible and immediately lowered his head, while the other glanced at Yan Mingge from time to time, and his eyes were a little tempted to say a word.

Lin Chu found this and frowned.

Jing He looked very bad and coughed like a warning, and the maid became honest.

Yan Mingge has always been alert, but he could not have noticed that his eyes fell on him just now. He put down the soup bowl and glanced at the two maids. The invisible oppression made the two maids shrank.

"Mrs. and I don't need to be served by anyone. We will not be summoned in the future or enter the main house." Yan Mingge's voice was slightly cold. According to his style of doing things, he usually found a little sign and even uprooted it. The maid was obviously restless. Lin Chu is pregnant now, so he didn't want to see that maid making Lin Chu feel uncomfortable at all.

If he hadn't been worried that these maids were bought by Lin Chu, he would have to take Lin Chu's face in front of the servants, and he would have asked the man to take him away.

The first day of service made the master unhappy. Both maids were scared and trembled and pushed out the door. They had secretly looked at Yan Mingge before. When they retreated to the door, they looked at Yan Mingge with resentment. The veins on Yan Mingge's forehead were thundering.

If he was a little pretty, he might be a little better in his behavior, but this maid was just looking, and making such a move was simply like imitating him.

"Jing He, these two maids are very good at watching you." Yan Mingge finished speaking and stared at Lin Chu without saying a word.

Jing He could see that the master and his wife had something to discuss, so he took them to the door and left.

Yan Mingge saw that Lin Chu was too disgusted and had no intention of eating, so he only poked the rice in the bowl with chopsticks. He felt a little funny: "You think the maid I bought was ugly, but the ugly ones are good at knowing it. The lady's vision of choosing a maid may not be very good."

"Don't squeeze me at this time." Lin Chu's voice was muffled. When he was watching people at Renyazi before, the maid looked quite honest.

"You are a two-body person now. Don't use the people you serve around you if you have any wrong things." Yan Mingge said: "You'll sell the person tomorrow."

Lin Chu sighed helplessly: "They did not make any major mistakes. I just took a few more glances and sold them. If this is spread, I will not be laughed at to death."

This dynasty is harsh on women. Yan Mingge is just a careless person and only spoils her. Many people say sour words, because she is very jealous, so she will not see Yan Mingge take a concubine. If she really does this, her reputation for being jealous will be confirmed.

This is the sadness of ancient women. Even if you have no mistakes, you can ask people to pick out bad things.

Yan Mingge put down the bowls and chopsticks, frowned, and said in a very unhappy tone: "They are coveting your husband, so this is not a big mistake?"

His angry look, as if he was not valued, made Lin Chu laugh.

After Yan Mingge's coaxing and persuasion, she still ate half a bowl of rice.

Lin Chu wasn't really disgusted by that maid, but summer came and she had no appetite.

Lin Chu planned to observe the maid for a few more days. If she was really restless, she could find a mistake and get rid of the person, so she would not know what would happen in the future.
