Gao was very bored recently. Apart from coaxing the children, she just chatted with a few maids. She sighed and said, "Although life is better now, but staying at home all day will make your bones rusty."
An Ning smiled and said, "Mom, the spring ploughing will start soon on our farm. Why don't I send you to live there for a while and relax."
Gao nodded immediately and said, "Okay, I'll go pack my things and we'll go there tomorrow. By the way, is your father going?"
An Ning shook her head and said, "I'm not sure about this either. It depends on when the emperor's appointment comes down."
Gao nodded and went to pack her things, forgetting about An Dashan.
When An Dashan came back, he didn't see Gao, but only saw An Ning and little An Rui playing in the main room, so he asked, "Where is your mother? Why didn't she see you?"
An Ning smiled and said, "I told my mother that we could go to the farm to relax, so she went to pack her luggage. I guess she hasn't finished packing yet."
When An Dashan heard this, he said, "Is your mother going alone? Why don't we go for a walk?"
An Ning smiled and said, "Of course I want to go with my mother, but you can't go."
An Dashan nodded and said, "How come the appointment hasn't come down yet? I can't wait to plant the corn."
An Ning said, "Dad, you can plant some in our garden, and then we can eat tender corn. I tell you, tender corn is delicious."
Little An Rui in An Ning's arms also drooled and said, "It's delicious."
An Dashan thought about it and thought this was feasible, so he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
An Ning said, "Dad, I still have a lot of seeds. I want to plant some on our farm."
An Dashan naturally had no objection to this. He nodded and said, "These are the seeds you originally brought out. There shouldn't be any problem if we plant some at home. By the way, I bought more than ten sheep today, including two pregnant ewes. I also asked Butler An to continue to send people to buy sheep in the surrounding areas, so that we should be able to supply them when we open the business."
An Ning nodded and said, "Okay, I understand."
An Dashan and An Ning were talking when Gao came out from the inner room. She smiled and said, "I have packed everything. When are we leaving tomorrow?"
An Ning thought for a moment and said, "Let's set off at 9:00 p.m., so we can arrive at the manor in time for lunch."
Gao nodded and said, "Okay, let's eat quickly. After eating, we can rest early."
An Dashan looked at his wife who ignored him the whole time and said with some resentment: "You all went out to relax, and I am the only one left at home."
Gao said seriously: "Since the emperor has given you a job, you should do it well and stop thinking about having fun all the time."
An Ning looked at An Dashan's frustrated look, laughed out loud, and said, "Yes, Dad, a man should put his career first."
After being scolded by the mother and son, An Dashan quickly said, "Okay, okay, you are right, I will get down to business tomorrow."
After the family had their fun, they sat together and had dinner.
The next day, before An Ning and Gao had even left the house, they saw Butler An hurriedly coming in. An Ning hurriedly asked, "Butler An, what happened?"
Butler An handed An Ning a letter and said, "Princess, this is a letter from the general."
An Ning took the letter from Butler An, opened it and read it, then shouted excitedly, "Mom, come out quickly, my eldest brother has sent a letter saying that my sister-in-law is pregnant."
When Gao heard this, she hurried out and snatched the letter from An Ning's hand. Then she realized that she couldn't read. Then she stuffed the letter back into An Ning's hands and said, "Ning Ning, read it to me quickly."
An Ning took the letter and began to read it. After reading the letter, Gao Shi also smiled from ear to ear and said repeatedly: "Good, good, good, this is really great."
An Ning smiled and said, "Mom, let's send something over to my sister-in-law!"
Gao nodded hurriedly and said, "Okay, okay, I'll arrange it right away." Then she went to the warehouse to pick things out.
An Ning shouted, "Mom, wait a minute, there's nothing in the storeroom that's suitable for my sister-in-law. Let's go buy some supplements or something!"
Gao thought it made sense and said quickly, "Ningning, let's go quickly so we can deliver the things as soon as possible."
An Ning naturally had no objection, so the mother and daughter immediately went out and went straight to the shop selling supplements. They bought many kinds of supplements and some specialties from the capital. After they had a full car of things, the mother and daughter returned home.
When An Ning got home, she called Li Xing and said to him, "Li Xing, go to the border tomorrow and deliver the things you bought today. I will send a few people to go with you."
Li Xing felt that An Ning entrusted him with such an important matter, which showed her great trust in him, so he clasped his fists and said, "Yes, Princess, I will definitely deliver the things intact to the general."
An Ning nodded and took out fifty taels of silver from her bosom. Yes, Li Xing said, "This fifty taels of silver is for your travel expenses. Take it."
Li Xing took the banknote and said, "Thank you, Princess."
After arranging this matter, An Ning felt relieved and said to Gao, "Mom, if you have anything to say, I will write back to my eldest brother." Then he spread out a piece of letter paper.
Gao talked a lot and An Ning took the trouble to write it all down. After finishing the letter, An Ning did not seal it in a hurry. He would see later if his father had any instructions and write them down as well.
When An Dashan came back, he saw Gao's face full of joy. He was a little surprised and said, "Why didn't you go to the farm? And what good thing happened? You are so happy."
Gao smiled and said, "Dad, you're going to be a grandfather soon."
An Dashan was also very happy when he heard this, and quickly asked, "Really? Did Dayong write to me?"
Gao nodded, handed An Yong's letter to An Dashan, and said, "Take a quick look. The letter says Wan'er is already more than three months pregnant, and it is estimated that she is more than four months pregnant now. Ningning and I bought a lot of supplements and special products from the capital, and we will ask Li Xing to deliver them tomorrow. Ningning also wrote a letter. Take a look and write a few words to see if you have anything to say. Let Li Xing take it with you tomorrow."
Although An Dashan was not a dull person, he could not say anything warm either. He only asked An Ning to write a few words and then sealed the envelope. The next day, Li Xing and four strong servants set off for the border with a carriage full of things.
