I think Wohe also knows the importance of Khoja.
However, he did not allow the boy to get close to Jia Wen, but let Hezhuo raise him, so naturally the boy was more important.
The wheels of the carriage slowly passed through one block after another in the setting sun and turned towards Ningguo Mansion.
At this time, Shen Ning, who was resting with his eyes closed, did not know that at the south gate, the bald monk and the lame Taoist were accompanying the people into the city.
"Madam~"
Wen Peilan, who was sitting next to the carriage curtain, suddenly said, "The mansion should hire some more escorts!"
Huh? Shen Ning was startled, "Okay, I'll tell Zhen'er later."
It is impossible for someone who once killed people in one city after another to become docile all of a sudden.
Even if they are forced to be docile due to reality, they will definitely do something to calm their anger.
She didn't let Jia Rong go with the adults because she didn't want those people to notice him.
"And there is also the West Palace."
Jia She, Jia Lian, and Jia Zhu all performed very well today!
Especially Jia Zhu.
There must be something hidden in his arms. Every time he smashed down or blocked, Shen Ning could see Suo Jin and Tie Bao grimacing in pain.
Jia She and Jia Zhen, on the other hand, are still stupid. If they hadn’t been in trouble when they were young and often got into fights with others, they probably wouldn’t even be able to use dirty tricks.
"Drive faster, carriage."
"yes!"
The palace guard Qi Youding, who was driving the carriage, quickly waved his whip.
The carriage picked up speed.
At this time, Ningguo Mansion was bustling with activity.
I went to Huitong Hall, and although I didn't find anyone to fight, I guess that was because they were too cowardly, not because they didn't want to fight.
They have not lost the glory of their ancestors.
Moreover, what happened today can be reported to the ancestors.
The Jia family salvaged 3.5 million taels of silver from the Jin people. All of this silver will be used to build the Heroes Garden that their ancestors wanted to build but never completed.
Taizu had no money back then.
The Emperor...
Thinking of the retired emperor, everyone quickly ignored the past in their hearts.
In short, we can now build a park for heroes.
It’s still the special fund of the Jia family.
This is a remarkable thing.
When Shen Ning arrived home, many elders were still crying and laughing in the ancestral hall, as if they had done something extraordinary.
The carriage drove directly to the second gate.
Qingzhu and the others had received the news early and came out to greet them.
"Mrs!"
"Madam~~"
Shen Ning was treated like a star and had just been helped down from the carriage when the wet nurse came running over with little Jia Yue in her arms.
“Woo woo woo~~~~”
The little girl thought her mother had abandoned her again, and when she saw this, she burst into tears.
"Don't cry, don't cry, mother is here."
In an instant, Shen Ning forgot everything outside, and only her precious daughter remained in her heart and eyes, "Mom is not leaving, she is just going out for a while."
She hugged her baby and coaxed her as she walked in, "Girl, how many times have you cried today?" Why does your voice feel hoarse?
"I couldn't find you in the morning, so I cried. I sent you to school. While playing, I thought of you again and cried again. I cried during my nap at noon. I went to my great-grandmother's place in the afternoon, but I couldn't find my grandfather. It didn't help even if my great-grandmother held me. I cried for a long time, and when I got tired of crying, I slept for a while."
The wet nurse couldn't do anything about it.
Logically speaking, since the wife has just returned, she should be allowed to wash her hands, clean her face, and change her clothes.
But the fourth girl was making too much trouble.
"When she woke up again, she wasn't happy no matter what she played with. She didn't eat much milk. You asked her to add some complementary food. She used to eat well, but today she hasn't eaten."
"…Are you angry with yourself?"
Shen Ning hugged the little girl who was still feeling wronged, feeling distressed and helpless, "This is not good, you should eat and drink well, wait for your brother and I to come back, and then you can make trouble with us."
Nanny: “…”
Maids: “…”
"Be good, mom is back, let's eat now."
Shen Ning had only eaten a few snacks at noon and was very hungry.
She had become picky about the food served at the Jia family. Even the snacks in the palace were fine with one or two pieces, but after the third piece, she would get tired of them. "Is there anything prepared in the kitchen?"
"Yes, yes."
Aunt Li and the newly promoted Aunt Feng both wanted to outdo each other today, so when they were competing in cooking skills, they made more snacks, and even the maids like them got some benefit.
Qingping ran very fast.
Shen Ning held her little clingy kid in her arms, and with the help of Qingzhu and the others, she wiped her hands, washed her face, and changed her clothes.
Once all this was done, everything in the kitchen was also ready.
Of course, Jia Yue was also fine after she was sure that her mother would not leave.
The little guy's eyes were full of smiles at this moment.
She smelled the fragrance again.
Egg custard is her specialty.
Shen Ning tasted her bland, almost tasteless egg custard, smiled and fed her a few mouthfuls with a silver spoon, then ate the blood swallow that had already cooled a little.
Because of an injury to her right hand, she can only use a spoon to eat now.
"Madam, the venison for stewing today is cut into very small pieces. Please try it."
Qingzhu put some in her bowl, "There are also chicken marrow shoots and cabbage hearts."
The cabbage heart is only cooked once in the broth, which makes it light, crispy and fragrant. This is Rong Ge’s favorite.
Of course, there aren't so many good people in this era.
All I can say is that they eat the heart of a whole cabbage, and the people below eat the rest.
Shen Ning had also eaten the eggplant fish a few times.
This was particularly troublesome for Granny Liu, as she needed a lot of chickens to prepare it. But for the Jia family, it was nothing.
There are nearly a hundred people in the mansion, so how can we not consume two chickens every day?
This is the result of repeated staff reductions.
It may be a little troublesome to prepare the eggplant fish, but once it is prepared and sealed in a jar, it is still an excellent dish in the winter when there are no fresh vegetables.
We had dinner early today, Rong Ge'er was not here, so Shen Ning only had four small portions of dishes.
She couldn't give the leftovers to anyone like Lady Jia did.
She could only order a smaller portion according to her own stomach.
After eating and rinsing his mouth, Jia Zhen finally came over and said, "Mother, there is a bald monk outside who wants to see you."
Bald monk?
Shen Ning didn't react for a moment.
Does she know any monks?
If the Taoist priest still knows a few monks...
Don’t you know him?
"Did you say anything?"
"No, he was just acting crazy and saying everything was wrong."
The clansmen had contributed today, and Jia Zhen was inviting everyone to dinner in the front yard. The monk came over, originally intending to beg for alms and give him a bowl of rice, but he didn't expect that after he came in, he would say everyone was wrong and insisted on seeing his mother.
Jia Zhen had little patience to begin with, so he ordered the monk to be beaten out on the spot. However, he did not expect that the bald monk was quite capable and several servants could not even lift him.
If you want to fight him, he’s a monk.
Ever since he had a younger sister and Youshi became pregnant, Jia Zhen had developed an inexplicable awe of doing good deeds.
In addition, several elders said that this bald monk must be of some importance, otherwise, how could he ask to see his mother? Jia Zhen said, "He is throwing a tantrum and rolling around to see you." (End of this chapter)
