Chapter 11



Qin Fang immediately put on his trousers and shirt, black trousers, light grey shirt, and then light grey gown. They were all made of fine cotton, stitch by stitch, and the workmanship was very good.

Qin Fang touched the clothes on his body, this was...she made it specially for him.

Qin Fang put the clothes he had just changed into the washing tub, and then took it out. He saw Yang Haiyan basking in the sun.

Hearing the noise, Yang Haiyan turned around: "Husband, are you okay? You go to bed."

Qin Fang: "I'll wash the clothes first." He used to wash his own clothes, and for a moment he didn't think that he could let his wife wash clothes after getting married.

If it were normal times, Yang Haiyan would certainly not object if a man had to wash his own clothes. She was a girl from the modern world, and she didn't have the idea that it was natural for a woman to serve a man. But Qin Fang hadn't rested since last night, and working all night was especially tiring. Naturally, she wanted him to take care of himself, so she advised him, "My husband is considerate of me and doesn't want me to wash clothes. I'm naturally happy, but my husband hasn't rested since last night. Go to bed first, and wash your clothes yourself next time."

Qin Fang wanted to say that he was not considerate of her, but... but what? He couldn't say it either. Could it be that he was used to washing his own clothes? He could only say, "Okay." As if he had thought of something, Qin Fang took out a tael of silver from his pocket, "This is the monthly allowance for this month, for you."

Yang Haiyan's eyes lit up. A man handing in his salary card means that he values ​​you: "Okay." So, she was very happy. Such a man has a future.

Meeting her bright eyes, he felt that he had done the right thing, but he explained uncomfortably: "My family...my family is run by my mother, so...that's why I gave it to you."

Yang Haiyan said happily: "I know, you go to bed." She pushed him in and closed the door.

Qin Fang: "..." Qin Fang saw the slippers on the shoe rack at the door of the room. As soon as he saw the oversized pair, he knew that they were prepared for him, so he put them on unconsciously. When he got to the bed, he smelled the fragrance and fell asleep immediately.

The weather in September is comfortable, especially when washing clothes with well water that is warm in winter and cool in summer. The temperature is quite good. Yang Haiyan first soaked Qin Fang's clothes in soap foam for a few minutes, and then washed them. The water that came out was really dirty.

When she finished washing and was drying the clothes, Mrs. Lu came over and said at the door: "Xiao Qin is finally back."

Yang Haiyan: "Yes, he is sleeping now. He has been on duty for a month, working day and night reversed. Even a body of iron would be tired."

Speaking of this, Mrs. Lu also felt sorry for her man: "Yes, the one at home is sleeping too." However, although she felt sorry for him, there was nothing she could do for the sake of life.

Yang Haiyan: "Sister-in-law, I'll cook at home tomorrow night. Come and help me. I'll invite my nephew to come over to eat."

Sister-in-law Lu: "No, let them eat at home."

Yang Haiyan: "No, the food will be good tomorrow, and there will be food for the kids." She informed the owner of the meat stall in advance and asked him to reserve spare ribs, pig's trotters and pig's large intestine, and of course, fat and lean pork.

Sister-in-law Lu: "Okay, I won't be polite." She was just being polite. If it was someone she knew, Sister-in-law Lu wouldn't be polite either. Because after dinner tomorrow, she still has to help Yang Haiyan clean up. However, she only helps with people she has a good relationship with.

Qin Fang slept very soundly this time, or maybe it was the woman's scent in the room that made him feel at ease, or maybe it was the smell of soap on the sheets, quilt covers, and pillowcases that made him feel at ease, anyway, he had never slept so comfortably before.

However, his life habits over the years made him wake up at lunchtime. After waking up, he stared at the ceiling for a while. This is very rare. He only stared at the ceiling for a while after waking up during the first few months of military service when he was not used to the barracks life, but now he doesn't do that anymore.

Qin Fang got out of bed and walked to the door in his slippers. He saw a pair of clean cloth shoes at the door. The pair of shoes he wore today had been washed and dried outside. Qin Fang put on the cloth shoes, which were exactly his size. The corners of his mouth rose slightly.

It was sunny outside, just like his mood.

When he arrived at the kitchen, he smelled the fragrance of the food, and then saw Yang Haiyan busy at the stove. He stood at the door and just looked at her. Her petite figure was very beautiful. He had limited knowledge, and the words he knew were not enough to describe her beauty, but she was more beautiful than all the women he had ever seen. Her waist was very thin, her hair was very black, and everything about her was good. She was so good, and she became his daughter-in-law, he felt like a dream.

Qin Fang gathered his mind and walked into the kitchen: "Is there anything you want me to do?"

Yang Haiyan turned around: "You're awake, you can eat, help me take the dishes down."

Qin Fang: "Okay."

Today's dishes were actually very simple, two dishes and a soup, just enough for the young couple. Although Yang Haiyan could eat better, diet is not about good food and good nutrition, but about good combination of meat and vegetables. Besides, Qin Fang's monthly allowance is only one or two silver coins. If they eat too well and exceed Qin Fang's financial ability, it will make men feel useless.

However, Qin Fang is a boy from the countryside, who has never been to school. He has worked hard from a small soldier to a centurion and earned a monthly allowance of one or two silver coins. Who can say that he is useless?

Today's two dishes and one soup are fried radish with leeks, tofu soup with pork fat residue, and braised pig's trotters. Except for the expensive pig's trotters, the others are not expensive, about 20 coins per meal.

However, 20 coins per meal is also a luxury for Qin Fang, who only has one or two silver coins per month.

After Qin Fang sat down, he first drank a sip of tofu soup and ate shredded radish. He did not touch the pig's trotter. At the same time, he said to Yang Haiyan: "You are so thin, eat some meat to replenish your body."

Yang Haiyan put down her chopsticks, picked up the pig's trotter with a serving chopstick and put it in Qin Fang's bowl: "There are six pieces of pig's trotters, three pieces for each of us. You also need to replenish your body. If your health is not good, who can I rely on?"

Qin Fang thought it made sense: "Okay, I'll listen to you." However, the dishes she cooked, whether they were meat or vegetarian dishes, were all delicious.

Yang Haiyan: "When you are free, we will clear some land in the backyard and grow some cabbage and radishes for ourselves."

Qin Fang: "I will do it

this afternoon." Yang Haiyan: "Don't worry, help me build a stove this afternoon, I will be useful to you, do you know how to build a stove?"

Qin Fang: "Yes, I did it with my father before I served in the army... My family doesn't know about our marriage yet, I will write a letter to tell them the news."

Yang Haiyan: "Okay, then I will prepare some things and send them with the letter." There was a special post station for sending letters, so other things could be brought over. The post station belonged to the court, and the messengers who delivered the letters did not dare to embezzle things.

Qin Fang was moved when he heard it: "Okay." After thinking for a while, he said, "I have two younger brothers and two younger sisters. I am the oldest. I was sent to serve at the age of 16. When I was sent, my elder sister was 14 years old, my elder brother was only 10 years old, my second brother was only 7 years old, and my youngest sister was 4 years old. At the beginning, there was no monthly allowance for service, and the barracks only provided food.

At the beginning of last year, I was promoted to centurion, and only then did I get a monthly salary of one or two silver coins and 30 kilograms of grain. From the moment I received the first monthly salary, I divided it into three parts. I kept one part for myself, one part was sent back to my family every year when I sent a letter home, and the other part was used for daily expenses..." Speaking of this, he blushed a little, "I usually eat a lot, and a month's food is not enough, so the daily expenses are all used here." He was afraid that she would think he was a glutton. Therefore, he carefully observed her expression.

Unexpectedly, she said: "No wonder you are tall and big, I like tall and big people like this. "

Qin Fang blushed: "Then...then you will be in charge of the money at home in the future, but the money for my father and mother...when my younger brothers grow up, you can give less, but not less now, is that okay?" Although he had no experience in sex, he knew that some wives did not like men to give their money to their mother-in-law. He also had his own plans and would not give all of it to the family. He would also take care of his own small family. However, as the eldest son, he could not ignore his parents, younger brothers and sisters.

Yang Haiyan: "Of course there is no problem. Your father and mother raised you, and you should respect them. "

Qin breathed a sigh of relief. He felt that he was very lucky to marry a sensible wife. He had completely forgotten how terrible he felt about her a month ago.

Qin Fang then added: "Don't worry, the money you earn is yours. I won't take your private property. I will work hard to earn our property. When I am promoted to a captain in the future, I can increase my monthly salary."

Yang Haiyan: "I believe you can do it. But while working hard, you must also take care of your body. Your own safety is the most important. No matter what you do, you must think about me and your parents. "

In the novel, he had no chance to become a centurion. It was tiring enough for him just to deal with the original owner. Later, the original owner ruined his future, so he took the original owner out of the barracks and returned to his hometown. Their marriage was similar to an imperial decree, and he could not divorce her unless the original owner died.

After that, his story was omitted in the novel.

Until the end of the story, the hero retired and returned to his hometown. The heroine heard about his story, that the original owner died, and he did not remarry, and it ended with just a few words.

Hearing Yang Haiyan's words asking him to pay attention to his own safety, his heart was burning. "Well, I will take care of myself."

Yang Haiyan: "By the way, didn't you say before that if others ask, just say that you and I made the soap together? I'll tell you how to make the soap now."

Qin Fang: "Okay, I won't tell anyone. "

Yang Haiyan: "Of course I believe you, after all, the secret recipe will be passed on to our children in the future."
