Started to get rich after exile

"There is also Ah Ning's marriage. Can we go to the capital in August?"

"Yes, the border fortress was a great victory, and the neighboring country was recovered. The emperor wants to praise the corporal, but the neighboring country still has many follow-up matters to deal with, and we can't leave yet."

"So part of the silver reward will be sent first, and the rest will be given official positions and titles. The emperor will not summon him until spring starts. Then he can go back. There is still time."

Ming Lanying nodded, "That's it. You go and clean up quickly, and I'll make a meal for you. Ning'er misses you after not seeing you for so long."

Ye Juelu picked up Ming Lanying and went to the bathroom together, "I've been holding my wife for so long, and she's also dirty. Let's wash her together!"

Ming Lanying blushed with embarrassment and punched him in the chest, as if tickling him, "You're playing a gangster! You're a disciple!"

"Husbands and wives should bathe together. Isn't there a word to describe us like a couple playing in the water?"

With a faint smile on his face, Ye Juelu strode into the bathroom and closed the door. The couple didn't see each other for one day, and it was already an hour later when they came out.

Ning'er sat and waited until dinner when she saw her father and mother coming together.

Ning'er held her face with her little hands and sighed, "Dad forgot about me as soon as he saw my mother. I'm also their son. There's nothing we can whisper together!"

The waiters who served the dishes lowered their heads and suppressed their laughter upon hearing this. Ning'er and her wolf cub took their seats first.

Ming Lanying looked at Ning'er from a distance, who was waiting with her little face in her hands, and immediately shook off Ye Juelu's hand, strode forward, and rubbed away Ning'er's frown.

"Ning'er has been waiting for a long time. Are you unhappy?"

Ning'er held her hand and shook her head, "Ning'er knows that father and mother have a lot to talk about, but she is just afraid that mother and father will miss the meal time."

Ming Lanying rubbed his little face twice, "My precious son is still considerate!"

Ye Juelu walked into the dining room slowly, and Ning'er bowed to him in a polite manner, "It's good that daddy comes back safely."

After living in the capital for several years, as he read more and more books, he also became influenced by some of everyone's rules. Now he is an older child and no longer wants to hug his father.

Ye Juelu patted his little shoulder gently, "Ning'er has grown up."

Ning'er chuckled and took the two of them to sit down for dinner.

Ye Juelu didn't see He Bai and Shan Zhao. While ladling soup for Ming Lanying, he asked, "He Bai and Shan Zhao can't move yet?"

Ning'er ate the food from Ming Lanying and said happily: "Aunt Hebai can get out of bed, but brother Shan Zhao can't move around yet and needs someone to take care of him. Aunt Hebai is with him."

Ming Lanying glanced at the mushroom and chicken soup on the table, and asked the maid waiting outside in a loud voice, "Have you sent them the medicinal chicken soup today?"

"I sent it back to the princess. The kitchen was careful not to add any seasonings, for fear of affecting the medicinal properties."

"That's good."

Ning'er's face wrinkled up when she thought of the tasteless medicated chicken soup.

Seeing the grimace on his son's face, Ye Juelu thought he had eaten something bad, "If he couldn't swallow it, he would spit it out."

Ning'er shook her head and took a big gulp of a bowl of mushroom and chicken soup. Minglan Ying smiled.

"Ning'er, don't look so grim now. After dinner, there will be your medicinal bone soup. Mr. Zhao specially prepared it for you. You can grow taller after eating it~"

Ning'er looked at her pitifully, "Mother..."

"There's no point in acting like a baby~"

Ning'er pursed her lips and looked at Ye Juelu with her big watery eyes, "Daddy..."

It's a pity that Ye Juelu lost his momentum at home and dispatched troops and generals outside. He listened to his wife in everything, and everything she said was right.

"Listen to your mother."

Ning'er had no hope of seeking help, so she felt aggrieved and ate two more pieces of meat.

After the meal, Aunt Cai was left to supervise Ning'er as she finished drinking the medicinal soup. Ming Lanying and Ye Juelu went to Mr. Zhao's yard to see He Bai and the others.

He Baizheng and Shan Zhao were competing to finish the medicated chicken soup first, and when they saw Ye Juelu, they seemed to see a savior.

"Brother! You are finally back!"

Ye Juelu gave a faint hum and saw that one of them was lying on the bed holding a cup of soup and was reluctant to start his mouth, while the other one was sitting on the bedside holding a cup of soup as if facing an enemy.

He directly interrupted their thoughts and said, "Eat first and then talk."

Shan Zhao looked at the tasteless and even bitter chicken soup in silence, gritting his teeth and taking a big gulp.

Ye Juelu saw that he had finished drinking, and then asked: "How is the recovery from the injury?"

Shan Zhao tried his best to suppress the strange taste in his mouth and nodded, "Mr. Zhao said he is recovering well and will be able to go to the ground in two days."

"That's good."

With tears in his eyes, He Bai gnawed on a chicken leg full of medicinal flavor, "Sister-in-law, I'm fine now, can I stop drinking this?"

Ming Lanying pinched her face and looked around, "Really? The scar on her face is almost healed, and her body is almost healed, right? Then this medicinal diet is very useful! Take it for two more days!"

"Hey!"

Ming Lanying patted her comfortingly, "You will accompany me to see Dongxia tomorrow, and bring Dongxia to the house to celebrate the New Year together."

"Oh……"

He Bai's mouth was filled with the smell of medicine and a bit of strange chicken, and he lay beside Shan Zhao's legs helplessly. Shan Zhao moved his fingers, resisting the itch and not touching his head beside his legs.

Ye Juelu looked at Shan Zhao and asked: "It's the Chinese New Year, and you probably haven't contacted your family for a long time. Your father doesn't know about your promotion yet, so write a letter and tell him about your future plans. "

Shan Zhao immediately understood what he meant and nodded seriously, "Yes."

Ming Lanying pinched He Bai's face, looked at her handsome features, and said with a smile: "Our He Bai is also getting married!"

He Bai tilted his head in her hand in confusion, "Isn't my home right here? Sister-in-law, don't you want me anymore!?"

He Bai's eyes widened in horror, and Ming Lanying smiled helplessly, "If I want you, what are you thinking about? How could I not want you! This will always be your home."

He Bai hummed and acted coquettishly with her.

Shan Zhao cried and said that he was bored here alone at night, so he pretended to be pitiful and threatening and asked He Bai to stay with him.

Seeing that he was his savior, He Bai reluctantly nodded and agreed.

After all, they are brothers who have been on the battlefield. With their life-long friendship and the grace of saving their lives, He Bai is not an ungrateful person.

When Ming Lanying and the two came out, they happened to see Mr. Zhao sitting under the eaves and sighing.

"Why are you sighing like this?"

Mr. Zhao's figure looked a little lonely in the snowy scene, "It's the Chinese New Year, and the girl is not around this winter and summer. Old man, I'm still a little used to it."

Ming Lanying smiled nonchalantly, "What a big deal! Isn't Dongxia at Meng's house next door? If you miss her, just call her! Or you can stroll over to see her. It's just a cup of tea. When Dongxia gets better, You want to come back and be my doctor! I can see you every day!"

Mr. Zhao glanced at her and shook his head helplessly, "A married daughter throws water away. If a girl is married to someone else's family, her mother's family can't visit her at will. Others will say your family has no rules."

Ming Lanying scratched her face, "There aren't so many rules here! Aunt Meng is not that kind of person, and you have to check Dongxia's pulse often! What's the point!"

Mr. Zhao looked at her clear and innocent eyes and shook his head helplessly, "Forget it, it's hard for you to understand this matter."

Ming Lanying: "..."

She has never been married in her two lives, so naturally she doesn't understand Mr. Zhao's sadness.

"You, don't think so much. Dongxia will give you a great-grandchild soon. Just be happy!"

When Ming Lanying mentioned her great-grandson, Mr. Zhao couldn't laugh even more.

Even though Dong Xia had been carefully taken care of and had constant good medicine and acupuncture, she was still not in good health to give birth smoothly. Even though Mr. Zhao tried his best, he was still not [-]% sure that their mother and son could be safe.

After all, no matter how good Mr. Zhao's medical skills are, he is not very proficient in obstetrics and gynecology. He wants to beg his colleagues who were once known as the masters of obstetrics and gynecology. Even if they are bitter enemies, they are all doctors and they will never refuse to save them. .Mr. Zhao has one more worry to worry about.

Ye Juelu took Ming Lanying's hand and took her away directly, "Don't worry, Mr. Zhao will figure it out."

"Okay, okay, it's my fault for talking too much."

Ye Juelu squeezed her slightly cold hand and used his body temperature and internal strength to warm her up. "I don't blame you. You are not the same as before. It's understandable."

Ming Lanying looked at him doubtfully, "What do you understand about me?"

"When you watched the Ming family fall, I knew that you were different from us. We have a sense of responsibility and belonging to our family for life and death. This is engraved in our bones and will not be easily changed."

"But you are different. You can have family or not. For you, just living is fine."

Ming Lanying was speechless, but Ye Juelu was right.

She had lived here for so long that she had almost forgotten the shallow family ties in her previous life.

Because of the special spiritual ability in the family bloodline, the family's ancestral motto has always been: "If you can stay alive, it won't be a big deal if the sky falls."

For her, the Ming family in this life had no emotions to hold onto, and it was an abyss and quagmire for the original owner. She also burned back the Ming family's 16 years of raising expenses to the Ming family in another way.

In this world, the only people who can give her a sense of belonging are Ning'er and those animals, and Ye Juelu can barely be considered one of them.

She is handsome and can play well, but the point is that she has changed a lot because of her.

"You are right. The Ming family has no feelings for me, and I feel the same way for the Ming family. My mother said: As long as a person is alive, he is the lucky one!"

Ming Lanying looked at him with smiling eyes. She didn't lie. Whether it was her mother or the original owner's mother, they really said this.

"As long as people are alive, even if they are thousands of miles apart, there will always be a chance to meet again; as long as people are still alive, suffering will one day pass; as long as people are still alive, it won't be a big deal if the sky falls."

"Because God will one day favor those who work hard to live."

Ye Juelu likes to see her smile, and even more likes the way she smiles and looks at him intently.

Ye Juelu's eyes traced her features, "Then I can shamelessly say that I should be the one favored by the gods, because the gods sent you to me."

In the first half of his life, he fell from the clouds into the quagmire, saw his whole family die in front of him, and struggled with the emperor in the dark and bloody swamp for more than ten years. He had seen too much ugliness and darkness of human nature, and he had not wanted to put it aside countless times. Killing all obstacles in the way, but swallowing the grievances and humiliations countless times.

But the emperor did not become gloomy, violent and moody, all because of his childhood sweetheart, the queen.

And he relied on his parents' last words to maintain his last shred of sanity and suppress his twisted and dark side.

It turns out that Ming Lanying was framed and when he was implicated, he instinctively killed her with a knife. However, because she was the daughter of his mother's close friend during her lifetime, he was poisoned after hesitating for a moment.

Later, he tolerated her again and again, and when he broke out, Ming Lanying came now, with a completely different soul.

Ye Juelu's eyes were hard to ignore, and Ming Lanying blushed a little and pushed his face away.

"Glib tongue, I'm not that good..."

Ye Juelu took the opportunity to kiss her fingertips, "I think you are very good, very good, so good that there is no time like this. Ning'er also thinks you are very good, Dongxia and Hebai both think you are very good." very good."

The tip of Ming Lanying's nose felt sour, as if no one had said such words to her for a long, long time.

In the busy life of her previous life, she still had nothing in the end. Now that she is gradually integrating into this world, she suddenly has everything.

Snowflakes are falling in the sky again. This year's situation is no different from previous years. The war between the two countries has just ended, but the war has not affected the lives of the people of the two countries, but the territory of the frontier has expanded a bit.

Discussions are still ongoing on how to deal with neighboring countries, and the New Year has to pass. This is one of the most important days of the year.

The sound of firecrackers suddenly exploded on the street outside, one after another, intermittent, and the sound of children playing. This was a reminder before the New Year.

Small, clear snowflakes fell slowly and landed on the hair of the two of them. The servant hurriedly found the two of them holding an umbrella.

Ye Juelu took the umbrella and waved the servant away. Under the umbrella was a small world with only the two of them.

The evening wind was cold, but it couldn't resist the warmth in her heart. Ming Lanying's eyebrows were crooked and her smile was bright. She held his hand and walked slowly back to the yard.

"Ye Juelu, you have changed a lot."

"Maybe because it's you."

"Then if I become bad one day, will you abandon me?"

"As long as you are still you, I will never leave you."

"Humph~ I barely believe you."

Ye Juelu had a smile in his eyes, holding her hand tightly with one hand, and holding an umbrella with the other to protect her from the wind and snow.

"Tomorrow I'm going to find Dongxia with Hebai, so go to bed early."

The lights in Ning'er's yard were turned off early, and Ming Lanying thought of setting up a private school for Ning'er.

"Ning'er is quite young, but he has never had many friends of the same age. I also feel that others can't teach him well, so I thought of setting up a private school for him. Sir, you can think of a way."

"it is good."

Ming Lanying gestured to the mansion next to the palace, "I have already bought that mansion, and it has just been renovated. It will be open after the Chinese New Year. There are no schools here, and those who want to study and be literate have to go far away, but this It’s a foregone conclusion, I can’t steal the business of other academies for the time being.”

"So I plan not to open a school first, but to open a bookstore first. There will be no more than four bookstores in Jiuzhou in the frontier fortress. Then I will take the lead and collect various collections of books. You can buy books, borrow books, and give them to the bookstores. Make some pocket money by copying books.”

"Then small classes are held every ten days to teach people how to read for free. Children and adults alike can come and learn how to read. They can even recognize a few big characters and even know their own names."

From now on, the frontier fortress will be under the control of Ye Juelu. The living standards of the people are also related to the various expropriations of the fiefdom. Ming Lanying wants to improve the quality level of the people in the frontier fortress from the bottom.

Although the frontier fortress is located in a desolate place, it will not stay like this forever.

Not all the people who were demoted were sinners who worked as slaves, but also ordinary people who had lived here for generations.

Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, the base of the frontier fortresses are workers, farmers and soldiers, basically ordinary people who cannot read a few words.

If Ming Lanying wants to improve the living standards of the people in the frontier fortress, he must first improve the quality of the people.

The truth is to be taught to those who understand. Only when you encounter those who are unreasonable will you use force.

Yuanyang Playing Theater: There is a special bathing pool in the bathroom of the main courtyard. The hot air is suffocating. Ye Juelu presses Ming Lanying against the edge of the bathing pool and kisses her until Ming Lanying can't breathe. people.

Ye Juelu lowered his body, leaned his head on her shoulder and panted. His big hands held her slender waist and moved back and forth, but made no other movements.

The two met frankly, Ming Lanying held her hands in front of him, her abdominal muscles with clear texture and beautiful texture felt great, and the two long knife marks on her tight chest had just scabbed.

Ming Lanying put her hand on his back. There were uneven scars on his hand, and her heart tightened.

The excitement in my heart also disappeared, "Turn around and let me take a look!"

Ye Juelu's voice was slightly hoarse, and he held her still, "The skin injury is so shocking, don't look at it."

"I've seen all the injuries on He Bai's body. What should I be afraid of with your skin injuries? Turn around and let me take a look!"

Ye Juelu kissed up her neck, all the way to her lips, "It's enough for me to stand in front of you. I won't touch you, just let me kiss you..."

"Well...you really are!"

Before Ming Lanying agreed to let him touch her, even though Ye Juelu's whole body was unbearably hot, he really restrained himself from crossing that line, but he never stopped kissing or hugging her.

I didn’t stop until I ate enough tofu in the bath and my skin-warming syndrome was relieved.

After taking a long time to wash up and change clothes, Ming Lanying realized that almost an hour had passed.

Grandma Cai, who had disappeared for a long time, reminded outside the door that it was dinner time.

Ming Lanying glared at him angrily, grabbed the man and strode to the dining room.
