The lady is on top, the general is on the bottom

Logically speaking, ancestors should be worshipped during New Year's festivals, but right now, they are in a border town, so where is the ancestral hall for Nie Xiuqi to worship?Furthermore, if the bloody smell from his whole body entered the ancestral hall, he might also offend his ancestors.

Lin Ningmei was waiting in the house, and today is not too busy, after all, there are no elders here, so she only needs to deal with various matters in the house.

First, Pai Cuiqiao settled the money from the peddlers. After all, those firecrackers were worthless, but it was not good for them to lose these things. Then, they gave rewards to the servants in the house. Personally, don't bother.

It was almost the end of the unitary hour, and Nie Xiuqi returned to the house. The armor on his body was already wet with blood, exuding a strong bloody smell, but Lin Ningmei did not despise him.As soon as he heard that the general was back, he rushed out of the master bedroom, ran to the man, looked him up and down carefully, and only after making sure that the man was not injured further did he feel relieved.

Lin Ning's eyebrows turned red.He muttered in his mouth: "General, I sent someone to boil the water, you go and wash it first."

The two servants hurriedly moved the sturdy bathtub into the bedroom, adjusted the bath water, and hurriedly left here.

Lin Ningmei didn't go out, she helped Nie Xiuqi undress herself.After the man's clothes were all taken off, he tore off the white cloth that was bandaging the wound around his waist and abdomen. Seeing that the wound hadn't broken free, he finally let go of the big stone hanging in his heart.

The muscles on Nie Xiuqi's body were strong and the outline was clear. Even though there were many hideous scars, they only added a bit of wildness to this robust body.

Lin Ningmei raised her hand and pressed the wound on his waist and abdomen, the scab had already scabbed over, even taking a bath would not be a problem.

Nie Xiuqi gasped, grabbed his little wife's hand, and said helplessly, "Don't move."

Lin Ning didn't hide her eyebrows when the man stepped into the bathtub. Anyway, she had been married for a few months, so it would be inappropriate to act shy now.She stood outside and wiped Nie Xiuqi's back. This was also a physical effort. Fortunately, Lin Ningmei had a lot of strength, and it didn't take much effort to wash off all the blood on Nie Xiuqi's body.

Holding a new dress in her arms, Lin Ningmei put it on for Nie Xiuqi, and said directly: "The clothes were made by my grandmother in Beijing. She is old, but she still remembers the general."

Hearing this, Nie Xiuqi couldn't help but feel a little guilty. He sat straight on the edge of the Kang with Lin Ningmei in his arms, raised his hand to caress his slightly protruding belly, and said:

"Wait a little longer, after the imperial decree is issued, we will be able to return to Beijing."

Lin Ningmei didn't care much about returning to the capital, but she thought that the murderous character Agutai would appear by Lin Qingyi's side, and it would be a great help at that time.

Spring is approaching, Lin Muyu is extremely talented and has real skills, it would be a pity if he fell into the ways of Yu's mother and daughter.

There was the sound of firecrackers outside the room. Because of the victory, this year's New Year's Eve was extraordinarily lively, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that the whole city had fun.

When Lin Ningmei and his wife survived the crisis, they ate another meal of mutton dumplings. Lin Ningmei also ate two big bucks, which was a good sign.

On the first day of the new year, Nie Xiuqi went to interrogate those refugees.But Lin Ningmei got into the carriage and rushed to Xuanfu Town. Long before the New Year's Eve, Bai Zhi and Zhen Kuo went back to the capital and found two kinds of sweet food, which were corn and sweet potatoes.

Before that, Lin Ningmei wanted to hurry up and visit Zhuangzi in Xuanfu Town.But thinking about the approaching New Year's Eve, those farmers would also want to reunite with their families. It would be a bit mean to rush to Zhuangzi at this moment.

But now, Lin Ningmei didn't want to delay any longer. After all, she would return to the capital soon. If she didn't go to Zhuangzi, she might not have the chance in the future.

Lin Ningmei and Bai Zhi were sitting in the carriage, and the driver was Zhen Kuo.Speaking of which, Zhen Kuo, a soldier, was really a bit reckless. Yesterday, he even directly ignited the firecracker and threw it into the cavalry without using a trebuchet.

Bai Zhi sat beside Lin Ningmei.Said: "Master, I found a steward in Xuanfu Town before. He is also clever, but he doesn't know his character. If you are worried, how about sending Fushun here?"

Lin Ning frowned, with a bit of surprise in her eyes, she asked, "Did Fushun offend you, otherwise why would you throw him into this bitter cold place?"

Bai Zhi's face turned slightly cold, and she didn't intend to hide it, so she said directly:

"The master doesn't know, it's obvious that Cuiqiao's maid has already thought about Fushun. The latter is also a smart person, how can he not see what that stupid maid is thinking?

But Fushun made a marriage in his hometown. I heard that he even has a doll, but he has been hiding it from us all the time. If it wasn't for the servant who happened to have a conversation between Fushun and his mother before, I'm afraid this person would have to hide it too. "

His face flushed.There was also a trace of anger in Lin Ning's brows.

Both Cuiqiao and Bai Zhi are the best, Lin Ningmei never regards them as slaves at all, even though they are still servants in front of people, but secretly they are not cheap at all, but innocent girls Family.

Now that Fushun has a wife in his hometown, what is he doing with Cuiqiao's sweet talk?He really treated himself as a toy!

"I remember that Fushun's hometown is in the area of ​​Xuanfu Town. It's okay to send him here as a manager. It won't save this guy from getting too big, and always causing some troubles."

Bai Zhi nodded and said:

"Fushun is as timid as a mouse, and I'm not afraid that he will feel resentment towards his master. Without you, I'm afraid he is still working as a servant in the Marquis of Jinyang. He can be a steward, even if he is not in the capital. , is still very decent."

After staying in the carriage for a whole day, when she finally arrived at Zhuangzi at night, Lin Ningmei put down Mrs. Tang who was already cold, put on a satin cloak with pleats, and got out of the carriage.

She wore small sheepskin boots on her feet, and she stepped on the thick snow and made a creaking sound. The old farmers in the village knew that a nobleman was coming, so they didn't dare to neglect, and they all walked into the small courtyard of the village together, wanting to I personally thanked this delicate lady for giving them a way out.

A kang was burned in the hall, Lin Ning looked at the five old farmers in front of her, and said directly:

"I would like to wish the old men a happy new year. This is the first day of the new year, and I didn't let you have time. It's my fault that you were called here."

The five old farmers were obviously down-to-earth, and they didn't even dare to say anything, only the grey-haired old farmer said:

"Ma'am, if it weren't for your kindness and virtue, we might not be able to survive this severe winter, and we would starve to death and freeze to death at home. It is a surprise to be able to live in Zhuangzi right now."

Lin Ning smiled: "Old man, why don't you do this, did you see the food I asked Bai Zhi to bring to you?"

The old farmer nodded and said, "It's just that I've never seen this kind of grain, so I don't know how to grow it?"

Lin Ningmei has been thinking about this question ever since she found out that there is Fanliang in Beijing, and said directly:

"Sweet potatoes are easy to grow, as long as you cut them into small pieces and put them in a cool place, they will germinate by themselves. Then plant the seedlings in the field and it will be done.

The seeds of corn are a bit laborious. You have to peel off the skin of the corn kernels and plant the pulp in it before they can germinate. "

Lin Ningmei was also a little uncertain. After all, she had seen these things in the biology book before, and she couldn't remember them clearly after many years.

Hearing this, the old farmer said: "If this is the case, it's not too difficult. I will send you a letter to the capital when the first batch of these grains come out."

After seeing a few old farmers, Lin Ningmei rested in the guest room. When the next day dawned, she was not in a hurry to return to Yucheng. Instead, she sat in the carriage and circled the village. This village is really big, covering hundreds of acres of land, and now there are only five old farmers in the village, so naturally it cannot be planted.

Fortunately, many veterans of the frontier army guarding Yucheng have retired, and many of them cannot return home, or even lost their homes. These people are sent to Zhuangzi. Although the work is a bit tiring, it is better than nothing Reliance came well.

Another day, the three of Lin Ningmei returned to Yucheng, and when Nie Xiuqi returned to the house at night, he sat in the master bedroom to eat, Lin Ningmei said:

"I remember that there are many retired soldiers in Yucheng. What kind of work are they doing now?"

Nie Xiuqi paused and asked, "Why are you asking this all of a sudden?"

"I bought a Zhuangzi in Xuanfu Town, and I went to have a look yesterday. If those military men live in a bit of poverty, then it can be arranged in the Zhuangzi."

After hearing this, Nie Xiuqi put down the chopsticks, staring straight at Lin Ning's eyebrows with deep eagle eyes, a smile suddenly appeared on his thin lips, and said in a low voice:

"There are quite a few soldiers in Yucheng who have been without food and clothing due to disabilities. If there is Zhuangzi, they will be guaranteed for the rest of their lives."

Lin Ning nodded, anyway, this Zhuangzi was also trying to grow food, if it was planted, it would also make up for the lack of the general's salary, and even if An Ruhai interfered with it, he would not repeat the same mistakes in this life.

After dinner, the husband and wife reclined on the bed, the room was pitch dark, but the kang was very warm.

Lin Ningmei was still a little sleepy at first, but she suddenly felt that a slightly rough hand had untied the tie of her obscene clothes at some point, and was caressing the softest place through the thin water-red pocket.

Lin Ning blushed and said in a low voice, "General, what are you doing?"

The words were about to fall, Nie Xiuqi moved his arm, and directly turned the little lady's body onto him. The world was spinning, Lin Ningmei exclaimed, and when he came back to his senses, he found that all the clothes that hindered her had been taken off .

Nie Xiuqi bit the tip of her tongue maliciously, and said vaguely:

"When I was in the capital, I asked Dr. Li, and he said that I couldn't have intercourse for the first three months, but after three months, there is no serious problem. I have endured it for a long time, and today I finally don't have to embarrass myself anymore."
