The night is as dark as ink, the deep winter night is cold.
Everything was quiet, even in Liangshan, everyone began to fall into a deep sleep.
If I have any regrets about returning to the mountain this time, it must be for my wife, Mrs. Lin.
When he gave birth to a baby, he was away fighting. Fortunately, God blessed him, and Mrs. Lin was also very obedient. In the late stages of pregnancy, she followed Lin Chong's instructions and performed some exercises suitable for the fetal position.
These aspects of knowledge were mastered by Lin Chong through popular science in his previous life. Production in ancient times itself was accompanied by huge risks.
It is no exaggeration to say that giving birth to a child is no different from going to hell once.
Lin Chong returned home and saw his son sleeping soundly in bed, and his mood suddenly brightened.
"Eight pounds can eat and sleep. I had a bowel movement several times today and I don't cry much. It's very good." Mrs. Lin said softly, looking at Lin Chong with eyes full of love.
Lin Chong subconsciously squeezed his wife's hand. For some reason, Mrs. Lin had a maternal tenderness after giving birth. She was a peaceful person.
Originally, the matter of giving birth had always been a worry for her, but this time she was able to give birth smoothly and gave birth to a son. Once her last worry was eliminated, Lady Li felt like a white orchid blooming, with ultimate beauty.
"I'll let the wet nurse take her out later. You just need to have a good rest these days." Lin Chong said lovingly, "Madam, you have worked hard this time. I was not at home on the day you gave birth. Every time I want to come, I am very worried.
regret."
Lady Lin hurriedly said: "Officer, please don't blame yourself. It is normal for a woman to give birth to a child. When Cui gave birth to a child, Liu Heizi was not at home. The officer is working for the future, and fighting abroad is also for the sake of the future."
Our future children."
When your wife is like this, what more can a husband ask for?
Lin Chong raised his hand to stroke her black hair. The couple looked at each other, and Mrs. Lin said shyly: "It's a pity that my lochia has not gone away. I'm afraid it will last another month. I'm just suffering for the officials!"
"What are you talking about? That kind of thing doesn't have to happen between husband and wife. Even if I talk to you, I'm happy. Besides, we have such a lovely child. I'm very satisfied." Lin Chong said frankly.
Mrs. Lin's eyes were bright, and her heart felt warm after hearing these words.
Mrs. Lin thought about it for a while and then advised her: "Mr. Hua Qing'er, have you thought about the matter of taking concubines? In order to avoid long nights and many dreams, my husband must hurry up! I'm afraid Miss Hua Qing'er will be very sad about Hu Sanniang's affairs this time.
What? Besides, it will be easier to serve the officials if she is here."
"There's no rush, we'll talk about it after the New Year. The military is currently heavy, and besides, you just gave birth to a child, and Hua Qing'er is still young, so she won't miss it for a few months." Lin Chong was vague, not wanting to continue this topic, so he went out on an excuse.
, "Don't wake the child. You have a good rest tonight. I will sleep in the next room tonight."
Mrs. Lin couldn't say much. Hua Qing'er had already been engaged, so she didn't know what her officials were thinking of the delay.
Mrs. Lin nodded and watched Lin rush out. Before leaving, she still said: "When the officials are free, I'd better go and have a look. Even if I say a few words to the young lady from the flower family, I'll put my mind at ease."
"What you said makes sense. I will meet with her once I have free time in the past few days. I heard that I was very drunk today, and it will probably take a few days to calm down." Lin Chong smiled, went out, and said to Xiaoyue,
Xiaohuan ordered: "Take good care of Madam. I'll ask the wet nurse to come and carry the eight pounds later."
Xiaoyue said: "We went to shout just now, I think they will be here soon."
Xiaohuan probed his head and asked tentatively: "I will come to accompany the official tonight."
Lin Chong waved his hand without comment and walked straight towards the wing.
As the cold wind blew, Lin Chong walked through the stone path in the courtyard and happened to meet Wan, the nanny.
When the wet nurse saw that the person coming was Lin Chong, she hurriedly walked a few steps, bowed and saluted: "Master Lin, you are the benefactor of our family. If you hadn't taken in our family, we wouldn't know where we are now.
Where can I get food?"
Lin Chong waved his hands repeatedly, signaling the wet nurse to get up: "I'm serious. The imperial court is mediocre and has plunged the people into dire straits. You came from other places. Now the harvest is good and your life is good."
"Thanks to Mr. Lin for your support, let me be the nanny for the young master. Don't worry, Mr. Lin, I will take good care of Ba Jin!" This is what the nanny said, and she secretly vowed to do everything with care from now on.
The son comes first.
"I'll have to take more care of you after the eight pounds, so I'll let you worry about it!" Lin Chong saw the nanny's sincerity and quickly expressed his loyalty, and was quite satisfied.
He is not someone who likes to put on airs. Tianji Pavilion has already investigated Wan's identity. The family has a reliable background, and most of his husband and brothers have served in the military.
It's not easy to find a wet nurse these days, but fortunately everything went smoothly.
Wan is not tall, but she looks like she is well-fed. Her hips are very wide and her breasts are bulging. She can easily feed herself eight pounds of food.
To be honest, he still looks like Zhou Zheng, but he has had a hard time in the past and is exposed to wind and sun, so his skin is slightly darker.
But it doesn't matter. As long as you eat well, rest well, and stay out of the sun for half a year, your skin will definitely turn white.
"Don't bother, don't bother, Mr. Lin, I'm going to take care of the young master. I won't bother you anymore."
The nanny couldn't bear to worry about Ba Jin who was sleeping, so she expressed her gratitude to Lin Chong, hurriedly said goodbye and went to Ba Jin.
When she spoke, her body was shaking slightly, and she was obviously respectful and afraid of Lin Chong. Not only that, but there seemed to be some nervousness in her eyes.
After all, he is still a child.
Lin Chong smiled and tried not to look too serious, otherwise these children would be really scared.
He stood there without leaving in a hurry, turned around and looked behind him, saw the nanny meeting Xiaoyue and the others, and then entered the house.
I'm afraid I'll have to talk in the room for a while and won't come out so soon.
Lin Chong was a little thirsty and wanted to take a rest, so he walked towards the front hall.
After walking a few steps, he felt a figure sway and hit Lin Chong's chest.
"Oh?" Lin Chong only saw clearly that it was a young lady, and thought she was some reckless maid. However, when he took a closer look, his expression suddenly changed slightly.
It turned out to be no one else but the one-foot-long Qinghu Sanniang.
The drunken Hu Sanniang stumbled out of the front hall with her head dizzy and unsteady steps, lowering her head and holding her forehead.
He happened to bump into Lin Chong who was walking through the door. It was considered an accidental collision.
Hu Sanniang looked up and was stunned!
What should I do!
She is drunk now and is in a very embarrassed state. The makeup on her face is completely ruined. Why is she looking like this when she sees Uncle Lin Chong!
Hu Sanniang wished she could dig a hole, crawl directly into it, and bury herself completely.
She is really regretful now. She is regretful, really regretful.
"You?" Lin Chong stood still and looked at Hu Sanniang.
This young lady is not wearing armor, and is now wearing a new dress. This dress is cut close to the body. If you look closely, you can see that it is really graceful, and the waist is full.
Hu Sanniang practiced martial arts all year round, but her hips were very wide. Even the fitness beauties of later generations could not compare with her figure.
Hu Sanniang noticed Lin Chong's gaze, but didn't know what to say. She knew she was in the wrong, so she apologized repeatedly and said quickly: "Thank you, General Lin, for treating Hujiazhuang so kindly. Today, my little girl is so presumptuous and drunk. It's really embarrassing. Please don't do it, General."
Blame.”
Saying that, Hu Sanniang bowed down and bowed down.
"Sanniang Hu, please get up. No need to be polite." Lin Chong stretched out his hand to help her and said, "Get up quickly! Drinking is not that good. Just be happy and don't take it to heart."
Hu Sanniang straightened up her appearance and continued: "I originally thought that Liangshan was just a bandit village, but unexpectedly it turned out to be so prosperous. In the past, I had only limited knowledge, but this time I came all the way and saw the mighty navy and the fortifications, and then I realized that there are a lot of things going on.
, no wonder they can sweep across Yunzhou."
"Oh?" Lin Chong chuckled and looked at her with amusement in his eyes, "What do you think Liangshan is like?"
Hu Sanniang shook her head with a smile and said with shame: "I originally thought that all of you were barbaric, rude, and made a living by robbing. The key government officials spread the news that you were killing innocent people indiscriminately. If a woman went up the mountain, she would be in danger of death. At that time, they treated you
The impression is extremely bad.
This time I went up the mountain, I realized how ridiculous it is to be preconceived, listen to what others say, and follow what others say. When I saw you today, I realized that I was the narrow-minded person and almost made a big mistake."
"If you know your mistakes and can correct them, you can do better." Lin Chong smiled heartily, and then stopped his smile, "Now the people in the world are living in dire straits. Even if I am rich here, how many people can I save! My few soldiers and horses are not enough, and I have to prepare for the future.
Fight and plan for the future of the people of the world!"
"Today's imperial court is corrupt and incompetent, and the Jin people often invade, causing external and internal troubles, making the people's lives even worse." Hu Sanniang frowned slightly at this time, her face full of worry, "I heard Sister Cui say some truth today.
I just feel that my life was too simple in the past."
"The imperial court is incompetent and the people suffer, so we must strengthen ourselves." Lin Chong said with a serious face.
"The common people live a life of darkness. If General Lin hadn't given him a helping hand, they don't know what would have happened to them!" Hu Sanniang said these words from the bottom of her heart.
She has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, and she is very good at hitting the ground running. Although she is a girl, she never takes her opponents seriously.
There was no one she admired, and Lin Chong was the first person she admired from the bottom of her heart.
Not only because of Lin Chong's abilities, but also because of his strong leadership ability, all of his soldiers are brave and have their own strengths.
Under his leadership, so many people are self-sufficient and have adequate food and clothing, which is in sharp contrast to the miserable villages around them today.
This is the talent a superior person should possess.
Hu Sanniang looked at Lin Chong, her eyes full of admiration, and then her eyes dimmed again, for no other reason than to think that she had blocked her escape route with her anger with Hua Qing'er.
Hu Sanniang slowly looked away and no longer looked at Lin Chong. Only she knew how much regret she felt in her heart.
The changes in her expression were all seen in Lin Chong's eyes.
Lin Chong only thought that she was worried about the suffering people, so he comforted her, "There will be a day when all the hardships will be over and the rewards will come!"
"I hope so." Hu Sanniang, a pediatrician, didn't know whether she was comforting herself or talking about others.
"Then you should go to bed early. You will feel uncomfortable after being drunk. After drinking the sobering soup, you should drink more hot water and eat a bowl of white porridge tomorrow morning to warm your stomach. You will feel much better."
Seeing her absent-minded look, Lin Chong didn't say much, walked into the front hall, sat on a chair alone, closed his eyes and meditated.
While half asleep and half awake, the system reminded:
"Ding! Congratulations on completing the main mission, capturing Zhujiazhuang, and unifying Yunzhou! You will be rewarded with 100,000 cotton seeds, a set of golden phoenix armor, and 5,000 taels of silver!"
Damn it!
This reward really shocked him.
If nothing else, these 100,000 kilograms of cotton seeds are a huge fortune.
One pound of cotton seeds can be planted in one acre of land, and one acre of land can produce 300-400 pounds of cotton.
A conservative estimate is that 100,000 jins of cotton seeds can harvest 30 million jins of cotton.
After these cottons mature, it will not be a problem to buy all the winter clothes in Liangshan, and most of them will be left.
In today's social and economic turmoil, people are living a precarious life, on the one hand because they are unable to earn income, and on the other hand because many daily necessities are priceless and unmarketable, and food and clothing are sometimes more precious than gold.
They had so much cotton that they could make clothes so that the Liangshan brothers could wear them.
He got such scarce supplies, and the quantity was still so huge, how could he not be excited.
The system reward arrived immediately. When he saw the set of golden phoenix armor, Hu Sanniang's appearance in golden armor immediately appeared in front of his eyes.
"It matches her perfectly!" Lin Chong suddenly thought of Hu Sanniang's heroic appearance.
This set of golden phoenix armor can only be matched by Hu Sanniang, a heroic woman among women.
Thinking of this, Lin Chong went to Hu Sanniang with the golden phoenix armor in hand.
"General Hu, I am Lin Chong." Lin Chong gently knocked on the door and shouted into the room.
Hearing the knock on the door, Hu Sanniang opened the door and said, "General Lin, do you have anything to do with me?"
Seeing Lin Chong standing at the door, Hu Sanniang invited him into the house to cover up her nervousness.
"General Lin, please come in!"
"Okay." Lin Chong generously entered the room and sat down, then gently placed the golden phoenix armor in his hand on the table, "General Hu, I give this golden phoenix armor to you."
Following Lin Chong's hand, Hu Sanniang saw the golden armor on the table. She was a martial arts practitioner and was very good at weapons and equipment. She knew at a glance that the Golden Phoenix Armor was a superior defensive armor and was indestructible.
Even when fighting on the battlefield, the life of the person wearing it will not be in danger. It is a rare treasure.
"Thank you, General Lin!" Hu Sanniang was not pretentious, she really liked the golden armor when she saw it.
Then he reached out and touched the golden armor, with uncontrollable joy on his face.
Not only that, she couldn't help but think about how such an expensive armor was given away as a gift.
Could it be that this uncle is really interested in her?
Hu Sanniang was already happy. Although the golden armor given by Lin Chong was good, the person who gave it made Hu Sanniang even more happy.
Seeing her happy, Lin Chong was relieved and said, "Just like her."
Hearing what Lin Chong said, Hu Sanniang was even more happy, because it showed that Lin Chong cared about her.
Just when Hu Sanniang was about to say something, Lin Chong stood up and said goodbye to Hu Sanniang: "General Hu, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
