Although Chu Xiuming said that he wanted to return to Beijing, he didn't mean that he could go back if he went back. For an official like him, he had to ask for an order to return to Beijing. Xiuming Anxin sent a lot of food and supplies, but he also sent a few civil servants along the way. It sounds nice to stay and help with chores, so as not to disturb the people in the border town who are not in charge when Chu Xiuming leaves. To put it bluntly, he just came He was an explorer, and he knew the status of the Chu family in the generals' hearts, so he didn't even dare to send the generals over.
Chu Xiuming thanked him well, and he didn't let these civil servants die suddenly like Emperor Cheng was worried about. Instead, he found a place to raise them well, and he really raised them. Just like raising pigs, there is no shortage of food and clothing every day. Yes, but there is no way to figure it out. A few strong men stare at the monthly memorial to the court, write it carefully, and we will send it to the post station for you after it is finished.
And even before Chu Xiuming sent someone to watch, the people in the border town just stared at these people. They were not fools. When the barbarians were besieging the city, they already hated Emperor Cheng to the core. In their eyes, it was probably Chu Xiuming. They really raised their arms and raised their arms, and they all supported it.
Zhao Nanny packed more than a dozen carts of things here and there, and Shen Jin was stunned when they set off on the road one after another, as if she had just accepted the fact that her husband was a little poor after spending all his money on something to save his life. Afterwards, reality suddenly slapped her hard. My husband is actually not poor at all, but... a bit too rich
When Shen Jin was in Chu Xiuming's arms at night, Shen Jin carefully told Chu Xiuming that those Yuehua brocades and Fuguang brocades... were all very valuable. After that, he was severely repaired by Chu Xiuming and said, "Don't worry. , no matter how poor you are, there is still money to raise a rabbit.”
This shocked Shen Jin awake, "Are you going to kill my rabbit?"
"Why should I kill your rabbit?" Chu Xiuming stretched out his hand and hugged Shen Jin back into his arms.
"Didn't you say to raise a rabbit?" Shen Jin asked, "But I have a litter of rabbits, and they will give birth to many little rabbits."
Chu Xiuming was a little speechless when he was told for the first time. It's hard to say that the rabbit he said is different from the rabbit in Shen Jin's mouth. He just smiled, "If I don't have money, I can afford it on the day I get married. Water seats?"
Shen Jin blinked, "Oh." She forgot, thinking about those jewelry, Shen Jin changed her position to stay more comfortably in Chu Xiuming's arms, then closed her eyes and went to sleep.
Chu Xiuming looked at Shen Jin like this, and didn't know whether to sigh for being too relieved or for being terribly confused. He just paid attention to what should not be paid attention to, but smelling the fragrant wife, Chu Xiuming also closed his eyes and went to sleep.
Zhao Mama arranged another maid for Shen Jin, she looked young and thin, she named An Ning after An Ping, and An Ping seemed to know An Ning, so she took the initiative to give up the position next to Shen Jin Instead, he paid more attention to taking care of Shen Jin's things, and let An Ning follow Shen Jin whenever he went out.
At the beginning, Shen Jin didn't know what was going on, but after seeing An Ning pick up the half-high stone lion at the door with one hand, the way he looked at An Ning changed, and then secretly said to Chu Xiuming at night, "It's so tall and so tall. It’s a big rock, it’s picked up right away.”
Chu Xiuming touched Shen Jin's back. He has been very busy recently, and he can only talk with Shen Jin at night, and he really likes to hear Shen Jin say these things, because it's funny without thinking about it, and the whole person will Much easier, "Do you think she can lift someone up?"
"Four or five adult men who are proficient in fists and feet are no match for An Ning." Chu Xiuming said with his eyes closed.
Shen Jin's eyes lit up, and then she laughed, "Husband, you are so kind."
"When are you going to make the fan case with me?" Chu Xiuming is not so easy to coax, he is satisfied with just one sentence, but he has heard from Zhao Momo earlier that Shen Jin chose materials and colored threads to prepare for embroidery send him off.
Shen Jin couldn't remember where the things were thrown, "I'm sleepy and sleeping."
"Before I arrive in Beijing, I hope to see the things my wife made." Chu Xiuming didn't hold on anymore, but set a time limit.
The little one has grown up a lot, and now Shen Jin can't even hold it, but Chu Xiuming said that the little one can grow a little bit longer, and eventually he can stand taller than Shen Jin when he grows up.
When everything was packed and set off on the road, all the affairs of the border town were handed over to Chu Xiuyuan. Chu Xiuyuan was almost raised by these guards. With this surname, the guards were naturally willing to listen to him. There are military advisors, and the people in the border town have lived and died with Chu Xiuyuan, and Chu Xiuyuan is not arrogant, so with Chu Xiuyuan in the border town, even if Emperor Cheng sends more people, it will be useless. At most, there are more people being raised in pens.
When it was time to start on the road, Mother Zhao actually packed some things and came out. Thanks to Emperor Cheng, who was afraid that Chu Xiuming would change his mind and ran away halfway, he specially sent guards to pick them up. Chu Xiuming directly asked the guards to help deliver the things. He easily took more than 20 servants and set off on the road.
Those who can be sent by Emperor Cheng are all confidantes, and many of them are collateral descendants of the upstarts in the court. The direct descendants are reluctant to send them out to suffer, but if the collateral descendants want to be successful, there are always some twists and turns.
But even if they were collaterals, they had never worked so hard. Did Chu Xiuming use them as servants of rough envoys, or the kind who didn't need to pay for their own dry food.
What's even worse is that Chu Xiuming is not as scary as the rumors say, he looks handsome and gentle, but he just looks a little cold, he doesn't look like a general who guards the border town and kills countless enemies, okay? It's even more particular than these people.
Compared with them, the 20 or so people brought by Chu Xiuming were much more comfortable, and they didn't have much to do. It was enough to protect the general and his wife.
At first, Shen Jin rode in a carriage, but later she was led by Chu Xiuming to ride a horse. Shen Jin wore horse riding uniforms for the convenience of traveling, and they were not in a hurry to enter Beijing. I didn't suffer much, and I often ate game, and I grew taller than when I was in the border town.
The little one is not in the car all day, it runs with the horses by itself, for some reason, the horses are a little afraid of it, and it seems to have become a spirit, specially to scare the horses of the guards, if it is not for the guards, there are some skills, Almost got knocked off the horse.
Shen Jin felt a little embarrassed, and asked Anping to deliver meat jerky and other food to those people, and when he came back, he taught the little one severely, "Don't make trouble, they are protecting our family's things. , What should I do if I break someone? It doesn’t mean that if someone’s stuff is damaged, they will be gone, and your bones won’t be eaten by you…” The little ones who were babbling about lessons all lay on the ground, with their front paws scratching their ears.
It made the guards who were a little touched at the beginning feel aggrieved. This is simply saying that they don't have anything important. In fact, they think too much. Shen Jin's words really don't mean that, it's just the meaning on the screen.
Chu Xiuming dotes on Shen Jin very much. Everyone in the border town knows this, and the guards who walk this way also know it. After all, they always have to rest for a few days every time they go to a prosperous place, and let Chu Xiuming take Shen Jin with him. Jin You had some fun, and when he hunted wild game outside, he specially packed it out for Shen Jin to eat. That time they saw Shen Jin's endless roasted rabbit legs and Chu Xiuming naturally took it and helped him eat it. .
At that time, several people were stunned. No matter how poor the family is, the men eat the leftovers before giving to the women. If there is a wife who can’t eat it, let the husband eat it, especially if the husband is high-ranking and powerful. when.
But the general just did it, and it was so natural, and all the people brought from the border town didn't make a fuss. It means that my wife used a little too much and remembered to eat hawthorn balls.
Shen Jin doesn't like the sour ones the most, but he likes the sweet and sour ones, and there must be more sweet ones. In the past, he didn't have to choose any fruit in the capital, except that he could eat the best ones at Princess Rui's. When I was in the side concubine's courtyard, the ones assigned to the mother and daughter could not be said to be the worst. After all, there were still those concubines without a name, but they were not the best. The most important thing was that there were still a few fruits.
So Shen Jin didn’t have to choose, so he didn’t choose, as long as he could eat it, when he arrived in the border town, because of the limited variety, and because of the environment, the fruits were quite sweet, Shen Jin liked it very much, Zhao Nanny and Anping thought that Shen Jin was not good. I like whatever I choose, but now I know it's not the case.
Chu Xiuming is also a doting daughter-in-law, regardless of the price along the way, he only chose fresh ones for Shen Jin to eat. After Shen Jin found out that their family was not short of money, he let go of eating. I was willing to see her disappointed, and turned a blind eye to the result that one day she vomited and had diarrhea after eating, and it took three days for her to recover. Since then, Mother Zhao bought hawthorn and asked the doctor to make it After ordering the hawthorn balls, as long as Shen Jin ate a little more, he would stare at Shen Jin to eat.
Hawthorn balls are not medicine, they won’t hurt your body if you eat them, and they’re good for your body, so no one thinks it’s bad, but it’s hard for Shen Jin, she doesn’t like sour things the most, and Mother Zhao refuses to let the doctor give them Put honey in it, since she can't bear to let Shen Jin down, she has to let Shen Jin remember it.
At this time, Chu Xiuming would not stand by Shen Jin's side, but would help Mammy Zhao to watch.
By the time we arrived in the capital, it was already autumn, and Shen Jin entered the city sleeping, because it was a private matter to enter the capital, and Emperor Cheng didn't want to make face for Chu Xiuming, but no one came to welcome him with great fanfare. Xiuming was stunned by his outstanding appearance, let alone guessing at Yongningbo, until the carriage drove directly into Yongningbo's mansion, no one guessed that Chu Xiuming was Yongningbo, it was because the rumors were too successful.
Although the Chu family has been guarding the border town all year round, there are still people in Yongningbo Mansion in the middle of the capital. No matter who they are, they dare not neglect Chu Xiuming and the others. After some improvement, Chu Xiuming bluntly put forward all the requirements, which was even more luxurious and rich than the general's mansion in the border town.
Moreover, there are many servants in Yongningbo's mansion, and the maids serving in the main courtyard are all beautiful, and there is no shortage of rings, fats, swallows and thins. They also knew the rumors about Yongningbo, but they were still unwilling. Chu Xiuming's real person blushed unconsciously, and his movements became more graceful and seductive.
The carriage stopped directly at the entrance of the main courtyard. Chu Xiuming didn't even look at these people. He got into the carriage and took out a man wrapped in a big cloak. A silkworm baby arched and arched, and then a white and tender hand stretched out from under the cloak, and patted Chu Xiuming's shoulder a few times, and Chu Xiuming adjusted his posture slightly, and then retracted that hand again. After going back, the person under the cloak moved, revealing a pair of delicate embroidered shoes inlaid with jade pieces, and continued to sleep in a flicker.
