After talking about Tieguai Li's current situation for a few times, she changed the topic and turned to the interesting things that happened in Nanshu City in recent days, which made several people laugh.
There was a lot of laughter and laughter in the restaurant.
The happy time passes quickly.
After the meal, Ren Ning picked up Ying Pan and returned to their yard.
Not long after, he had just finished washing when there was a gentle knock on the door.
Under Ji Xiang's instigation and coercion, several stable women who had moved into the house early made trembling noises.
"General Ren, the general's wife will give birth soon. At this time, the safety of the child is the most important...according to the rules, it is not suitable for the couple to live together at this time."
"How about you change rooms during your break?"
The two people in the room burst into laughter.
"I understand." Ren Ning did not embarrass the ladies, "It's still early now, so I'll sit with my wife for a while. You've all worked hard, go down and rest first."
Ren Ning is so easy to talk to, and he is not as reckless as the legendary one who shouts and kills him if he disagrees with her. This makes the stable women much more courageous.
They took a lot of money from the General's Mansion and gave them careful instructions before turning around and leaving.
"You're still pregnant, why don't you go to bed and lie down first?"
Yingpan sat at the table without getting up, just looking at her husband's familiar face with a smile, and her heart was filled with warmth.
"I'm fine. Miao Dong, Ji Xiang and Wen Po have been keeping a close eye on me these days. I'm tired of lying there."
"You've been going all the way south, are you tired from the journey? Why don't you take a good rest first and leave anything to say until tomorrow."
Ren Ning laughed and shook his head, making a majestic gesture.
"Seeing you and the child makes me full of energy and I don't feel tired at all. After all, chasing the wind has been running all the way for two months. It's hard work."
"Zhui Feng?" Yingpan turned her head and looked in the direction of the stable with excitement, "Zhui Feng is indeed a good horse. By the way, I haven't seen it today."
As she spoke, her eyes showed envy.
As a daughter who grew up on the grassland, she is closest to horses.
However, after arriving in Yunchui, Yingpan seldom rode a horse, and after becoming pregnant, she was not even allowed to touch a horse.
Now that she hears the word "horse", her heart is inevitably itchy.
Ren Ning understood what she meant and sat down next to her with a smile.
"You want to see it? Is that easy? I'll bring it over tomorrow and let you touch it."
"As for riding horses, when the war is over, I will take you and your children to meet your elder brother in Xiliang. Then you can ride for as long as you want."
Yingpan couldn't help but raise her head and look to the west longingly, "I hope one day."
"Don't worry." Ren Ning held her hand comfortingly, "I promise you, it won't be long. And I won't forget what I said."
"Yeah." Yingpan nodded happily.
She changed into a more comfortable position and said, "Husband, I want to say a few things."
"Tell me." Ren Ning pinched his plump face due to pregnancy, "Why is it so serious?"
Yingpan didn't answer, just smiled and changed the subject.
"Earlier, I had entrusted the whole responsibility of running the newspaper to Wu Xintian, the original chief of guard. Now there is a new chief of guard at the general's residence, named Qin Yushi."
Ren Ning nodded.
He knows these things.
Both Ying Pan and Miao Dong were suitable candidates to run the newspaper in the beginning because they were loyal to themselves.
But in the final analysis, their vision and knowledge are relatively limited. As the influence of newspapers continues to expand, they are no longer suitable to lead the process of running newspapers.
And Wu Xintian is a person Ren Ning can trust. If he hadn't been in Star City, he would not have chosen him as the guard chief.
The newspaper was handed over to Wu Xintian, but Ren Ning had no objection.
"I will see Qin Yushi tomorrow and ask him to ensure the safety of his house."
Yingpan smiled, obviously not taking this to heart.
"I have rented the land in Guangxin and Laigu counties to the people who came to settle down according to your arrangement. At the beginning, the rent will be waived for three years, and the necessary shelter, seeds and farm tools will be provided. After three years, the rent will be approximately
One-fifth-third of the county landowners’ share.”
Ren Ning thought of the scene on the outskirts of the city and nodded in approval: "Thank you for your hard work."
"Nothing." Yingpan shook her head and continued, "The cultivation of high-yielding seeds has been ongoing. Veteran farmers in various trial planting areas have reported that some progress has been made. It seems that some high-yielding seeds have been found. But it still takes a few more years.
It will be confirmed in the next season.”
"So good?" Ren Ning was overjoyed, "Let the farmers not be anxious and take your time. We are not in a hurry."
Um.
Yingpan nodded and took note.
"Because the Gu family caravan wants to be upgraded to a large caravan, Sister Shengnan borrowed a sum of money from us and Zhongyong Bo's Mansion each. This is an IOU."
Ren Ning glanced at it casually and said, "I know, just keep it."
"Rubber forest..."
I talked a lot about business matters, and I turned to the people around me.
"Although this girl Jixiang is a bit naughty, she has grown up with me since she was a child, just like my biological sister. Now she has grown up, and she seems to have a sweetheart."
"When she gets married, I hope she can marry as my sister instead of as a maid."
"Husband, do you think it's okay?"
"Of course." Ren Ning smiled and nodded, "When we get the exact news, we will prepare a generous dowry for her so that she can marry in style."
"However," Ren Ning said, some Zhang Er monks were confused, "Just make your own decision on this kind of thing. Tell me what to do."
Yingpanwan smiled, but still did not answer the question. She just raised her head and looked at her husband silently for a while.
"In Yunchui tradition, there is a saying of equal wives. Sister Li opposite me is not young. You and I both know her character. She is a kind and easy-to-get-together person. And whether she is in charge of the house or in dealing with others, she is generous and capable.
Supporting a family."
"The most important thing is that she has been waiting for you for several years."
"Why don't we take advantage of my husband that you are at home now, and let's discuss choosing a good day to marry her."
Huh.
Ren Ning was startled and reached out to touch Yingpan's forehead suspiciously.
"What's wrong with you? How do you say this now?"
"Nothing." Yingpan lowered her eyes and gently stroked her belly.
In this era, female doctors were in short supply, and male doctors were usually not allowed to go to the backyards of wealthy families to treat patients. Therefore, no matter how rich or poor a woman was, no matter how many stable wives she hired, giving birth to a child was like going through hell.
Fortunately, it went smoothly. If something went wrong, she had arranged everything that needed to be arranged.
"Husband, can you promise me this?"
Ren Ning soon figured out the reason, and suddenly felt dumbfounded.
He carefully helped Yingpan lie down on the bed.
"Fool, don't think so wildly. Our child will definitely be born safely and healthy and grow up."
"As long as I'm by your side, you can rest assured."
Yingpan was not worried about herself, she asked: "What about Sister Li?"
"Didn't Li Hebai come back to visit his relatives last time? He said that if his sister couldn't remarry, he would go to the Starfall Army and hack you to death."
Ren Ning wiped his sweat and could only comfort him: "We can wait until our child is born to discuss this matter, okay?"
Yingpan didn't answer, but raised her voice and called to Po Wen who was in the side hall and was on call at any time.
"Aunt Li, Aunt Hua and Aunt Luo, come and ask the general out. He always..."
Ahem.
The three stable ladies pushed open the door and walked in, staring eagerly at Ren Ning who was dumbfounded.
