Qin Fang had been outside the city for more than half an hour. After understanding the basic situation during this period, he was ready to enter the city. Just as he was about to leave, he looked up and saw a familiar figure coming out of the city gate. His eyes lit up, and he subconsciously wanted to run forward, but suddenly calmed himself. Qin Fang kept a straight face and pretended that he didn't see anyone, then turned around and looked at the surrendered barbarians on the side.
? This was Yang Haiyan's expression. She saw him, and she also saw that he saw her, so why did he turn around? Didn't he see her?
But Yang Haiyan didn't think much about it, thinking that Qin Fang didn't see her. So she lightened her steps and slowly and gently approached him.
Qin Fang thought that it was only a few steps from the county to here, why did his wife walk so slowly? He really wanted to turn around and take a look, but he held back.
Suddenly, he felt footsteps approaching from behind. The footsteps were very light, but if he listened carefully, he could still hear the owner of the footsteps. Moreover, who could be so close to him? Qin Fang raised the corners of his mouth, and continued to stand there pretending to be nothing.
Yang Haiyan didn't know what he was thinking, and quietly came behind him. Originally, she wanted to scare him, but found that it seemed impossible to scare him given the gap between them. Therefore, she reached out and poked his waist. The flesh on his waist was very firm, and when she poked it with her fingers, it felt like poking a stone.
Qin Fang turned around, holding back his laughter, and spoke as if he was surprised: "Yan Yan, why are you here?"
Yang Haiyan smiled and said: "I heard from Uncle Hong that you are back. I haven't seen you for a long time, so I came to see you."
Qin Fang was very happy. He just liked to hear her say nice things, especially when these nice things were said about him. After not seeing her for a month, she became thinner and more haggard. He had to take good care of her when he returned. Now, he has five thousand taels of silver and a monthly salary of one hundred and twenty taels. Finally, he can support his family and doesn't have to rely on Yan Yan to support him. His self-confidence was satisfied as never before. He had long since thrown away his inferiority complex. Now Qin Fang is extremely confident.
Although Yang Haiyan didn't know what he was thinking, she could see that he was very happy. Looking at him, her eyebrows were full of smiles. They have been married for more than a year, and he has never smiled like this before.
Qin Fang saw her looking at him, and said: "You just wait for me at home, I will ask Captain Lu about the situation, and I will be home soon." Really, why did he ask her to come out, she was already exhausted during this period of time, and now she came to see him and walked a long way, wouldn't she be more tired?
Yang Haiyan smiled and said: "But I haven't seen my husband for a long time, I miss him so much, so I can't wait to come."
Qin Fang heard this, his heart was pounding, he took her hand: "Such words... in the future, just say them at home, outside... be reserved. Let's go home."
Reserved? Yang Haiyan wanted to say, if you want to be reserved, don't hold my hand. Knowing that he doesn't mean what he says, sometimes he is honest and cute. She did not refute him.
The two held hands, entered from the county gate, and walked all the way to the general's mansion. Along the way, Yang Haiyan told Qin Fang about what had happened in the past few days and what she had seen and heard, including a little about the origin of Yang County Magistrate and her.
Qin Fang was also a little surprised to hear that Yang County Magistrate and Yang Haiyan had this origin.
The two returned to the general's mansion, and Yang Haiyan pushed Qin Fang to take a bath and reminded him: "Husband, you have to soak in the medicine barrel for a while." There were also medicines in the medicine barrel. These medicines were prepared by Doctor Wang before leaving the border.
Doctor Wang has been regulating Qin Fang's body for more than a year, so he knows Qin Fang's body very well. In the future, these things will have to be handed over to Doctor Li.
Qin Fang said, "I know, don't worry."
Qin Fang went to take a medicinal bath, and Yang Haiyan met Nanny Lian and Aunt Fan. Speaking of which, she now values Nanny Lian very much. These few days without Nanny Lian, she couldn't do anything with energy, but fortunately Nanny Lian finally came back. "You have lost weight on the way, you have to make up for it when you come back, and give you a few days off, don't rush to work."
Upon hearing what Yang Haiyan said, Nanny Lian said, "I can't be idle. Once I am idle, I don't know what to do. So, it's better for me to serve the lady."
Yang Haiyan smiled and said, "Wait until you have rested, Nanny, you will be busy. Si Ya and Shou Cheng's courtyards need one. Nanny, find a maid for Si Ya and a book boy for Shou Cheng, both of them must be indentured. "
Nanny Lian said, "I've made a note of it. I'll go to the pawnshop tomorrow to check it out."
Yang Haiyan said, "There's more. Now the yard is bigger and we don't have enough maids to clean it. We have to buy another one. By the way, Uncle Hong will be promoted to housekeeper in the future, so we have to buy two gatekeepers."
Nanny Lian said, "Madam, the gatekeepers of the general's mansion can be private guards. The general The army's current private guards also need to be recruited. Private guards who know some martial arts are most suitable to guard the door."
Yang Haiyan heard this and realized that it made sense. She didn't think of anything else for a moment: "I'll listen to you."
Nanny Lian: "Yes."
Yang Haiyan thought about it and couldn't think of anything else for the time being: "Nanny, you should also think about what is needed there. If you think of it, please tell me. These are all I can think of for the time being."
Lian The nanny smiled and said, "Madam, you are exhausted. When you are tired, you don't want to think about anything. Then I will think about it later and see what is missing in the mansion."
Yang Haiyan: "Okay."
After Yang Haiyan and Nanny Lian finished talking, Aunt Fan hesitated and said, "Madam, can I take a month off?"
Yang Haiyan was stunned: "What's wrong with you?" Aunt Fan is usually active and careful in her work, and Yang Haiyan is still very satisfied with her. So when Aunt Fan suddenly asked for a month's leave, Yang Haiyan thought something happened to her and was very concerned.
Aunt Fan's eyes turned red as she said, "My original home was in the next county. I...I want to go see my daughter. I don't know how my daughter is doing now. She...when I was taken away, she was raising money to redeem me from the pawnbroker. I guess she found out that I had been taken away, so she must have..." Aunt Fan couldn't continue, and she sobbed. She had a bad life. When she was young, she was sold to the family of her former master by her family. Later, she married the son of her former master's family and they had a daughter. She didn't have a strong personality before, so the man was the head of the family. Who knew that after the accident, the man would divorce her directly. After
she went through many twists and turns in the past two years, she was sold to her current wife by the pawnbroker, and her personality has become stronger than before. When she was at the border, because the two places were far apart, even if she had thought of this, it was just a thought. But now that she had the opportunity, she wanted to go and take a look. When
Yang Haiyan heard about this, she immediately said, "Of course you can. I'm afraid it's not safe for you to go alone. I'll let Tao Shan take you there." Tao Shan, who is not married yet, is suitable for running errands.
Aunt Fan hurriedly said, "No, no, I can go there by myself. I have lived there for half my life and I am very familiar with it."
Seeing her insistence, Yang Haiyan didn't force herself anymore. She said to Aunt Lian: "Auntie, go get ten taels of silver and give it to Aunt Fan. These ten taels of silver are what I lent to Aunt Fan. As the saying goes, "I'm a poor family, I'm rich, I'm traveling, I'm rich and I can do things well." She didn't say give it away, otherwise it would be appropriate to borrow it.
Over the past year or so, Aunt Fan has also saved some money. The former master's family has few servants. Although she and Aunt Hong have the same two hundred coins, that is on the surface. In private, the wife will reward her with an extra five hundred coins every month. Ten articles. In this way, when one of them comes back to Kunzhang family, she doesn't have to go to the snack shop, and this reward is cut off.
Over the past year, from October last year to March this year, she had saved four taels of money. She ate and wore everything from her master's house. She didn't spend a penny of her money at first. Later, the poultry in the manor laid eggs, and the wife sold them for two cents for three eggs. She started eating it too.
The lady was right. Women should be good to themselves, because only when the body is well can people have hope in life. I hope to see my daughter. So now, although the journey to Yunxiang County is very tiring, everyone in these houses is in good health and no one is sick, except for the little girl Meng Qiu.
I have to say, this Over the years, goat milk and eggs are not eaten in vain.
Aunt Fan did not refuse the ten taels of silver given by Yang Haiyan. She did not know what was going on with her daughter. What if she was short of money? There is a saying that a poor family can become rich on the road. Looking back, the ten taels of silver were not spent. If she spent the money, she would return it to the wife. If she spent it, she would have to deduct it from her monthly allowance.
Aunt Fan received Yang Haiyan's leave and left. She wanted to pack her things and planned to leave early tomorrow morning.
For Yang Haiyan, Aunt Fan performed well during work. If it were other matters, she could not say that she trusted Aunt Fan much, but when it came to such a small matter as ten taels of silver, Aunt Fan was not a question of trust or distrust for her. First of all, if Aunt Fan wanted to run away, she would not have followed us to Yunxiang County. She could have just run away to find her daughter halfway. Secondly, in her financial situation, it was worthwhile to spend ten taels of silver to see a person clearly.
However, after Aunt Fan left, she had to find someone to do the kitchen work. She had been eating Kun meat for the past few days . Zhang was in charge of the cooking. Kun Zhang was also a good cook, so she let Kun Zhang take over. Moreover, if the mansion needed to provide private guards and servants, Kun Zhang would not be able to handle it alone. She had to find someone else, Huang Huzi. How about the daughter-in-law Huang Xu, Meng Ping's wife Meng Qiu, or Meng An?
Or, should we just let the wife Niu come?
Qin Fang came out of the medicinal bath and saw his wife in deep thought. He was wearing a black shirt and trousers, and with the smell of medicine all over his body, he hugged her from behind: "Wife... Yanyan..." This voice carried a The longing for many months and the desire of men for women.
