Chapter 402 Busy New Year's Eve

PreviousBack to directoryNext
The beef jerky tastes good. After the fresh meat is processed and dried into dried meat, it doesn't have much fishy smell.

After eating a piece of beef jerky, Hanjianglou thought to himself, with this processing method, he must have eaten jerky there a lot.

However, Hanjiang Tower didn’t say much about this.

This kind of thing is short-tongued, so stop talking nonsense.

Hanjianglou didn't eat much. After eating three pieces, he didn't eat more. After all, he was at Cao Mansion at noon, so he didn't eat less.

If I eat too much, I will feel sleepy and it will be difficult to read at night.

Moreover, there was sweet soup stewed in the kitchen, and he smelled good, and wanted to drink some.

"Keep the warm treasure, it's not good to leave it with me." Hanjiang Tower will have to go back to the academy in two days, and it's hard to take it with you. It will easily cause trouble then.

"What's yours and mine? If you want to eat it, come and get it yourself." As Dong Nuan spoke, she had already put the dried meat back into the small box.

It was a box for storing miscellaneous items, and it was placed next to the dressing table.

It doesn’t look like much, but it packs a nice punch.

Hearing Dong Nuan say this, Hanjianglou touched her head and said nothing more.

In the evening, the family drank sweet soup and then went about their own business.

Dong Nuan tidied up and went to bed. Han Jianglou read a book in the study for a long time, and then Dong Yao was inspired to read there honestly for a long time.

It just so happens that Hanjianglou is around, so if you have some questions that you don’t understand, you can ask them by the way.

The two of them read for a long time before going to bed.

After Hanjianglou returned to his room, he waited for a long time until his body felt warm before undressing and going to bed.

He was afraid that the cold air would be brought to the bed and the cold would become warm in winter.

After lying down, he gently took the sleeping little girl into his arms and hugged his little wife. Hanjianglou contentedly took his chin and rubbed Dongnuan's hair, and then fell asleep contentedly.

After the first day of the new year, Dong Nuan is even busier.

Those adults with good relationships sent their juniors to come to the house to pay New Year greetings. It was hard to pretend that they couldn't see the warm winter, so they had to clean up and go home to pay their respects.

From the second day of the Lunar New Year to the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, Dong Nuan had almost no leisure at all. He was either going to this adult's house or attending that banquet.

On the ninth day of the Lunar New Year, the annual leave for all of you has finally ended and everyone has returned to their duties.

Just when Dong Nuan thought she could finally breathe a sigh of relief, Magistrate Cao was about to get up and return to Liangzhou again.

Because of Cao Feng's marriage, he requested an order to return to Beijing early and did some work on the year-end work report.

If this year is over and he doesn't leave, Your Majesty should have some objections.

So, clean up and get back to work honestly.

When the adoptive father and others returned to Liangzhou, Dong Nuan packed up and sent them off.

Gou Qingyun also happened to be returning to Shui County, so she went with Magistrate Cao's motorcade so that the Gou family could rest assured that they would take care of them.

"Nuan Nuan, Wu Wu, I'll try to come here in the summer." Although there are fruit groves in Zhuangzi in Xiangshui County and the fruits are delicious, Gou Qingyun still wants to try the ones in the capital.

It will be different after all, and she is looking forward to it.

But she wasn't sure if she could come back.

However, this did not delay her from making a wish. When she said goodbye, she held Dong Nuan's hand and refused to let go of it no matter what.

However, she was riding along with Magistrate Cao's motorcade, so she couldn't keep wasting time.

So, in the last step, she turned around and followed the convoy, while Dong Nuan kept waving at her.

I thought that after sending away my adoptive father's family, I would have some leisure time in the warm winter. This new year is almost as good as the summer of last year.

As a result, on the tenth day of the lunar month, news came from the Cao Mansion saying that Concubine Rong had launched the attack!

Dongnuan:……

Okay, I can't take any time off this year.

However, if Concubine Rong takes action, she won't be able to help much, let alone help, and she won't even be able to see her in person.

However, I am still somewhat worried.

Concubine Rong is the first child. Fortunately, she is not too young. She is already over twenty years old, so the birth should not be too painful.

In fact, it was quite difficult for Concubine Rong to give birth to her baby.

It started on the 10th day of the lunar month and lasted until the night of the 11th day of the lunar month when the baby was finally born!

It almost hurt for a day and two nights, which can be said to be very hard.

Fortunately, the child was born, mother and child were safe, and Dong Nuan was listening to the news outside the palace, so she could finally feel relieved.

When a concubine of honor gives birth to a child, she will naturally be rewarded.

A large number of rewards were sent to her palace like water, and at the same time, preparations were already being made to promote her as a concubine.

She is still in confinement, and there are many things that she cannot cope with at the moment, so the matter of becoming a concubine will probably take some time to prepare.

However, for the Cao Mansion, it is a good thing that Concubine Rong can be promoted to the position of concubine.

After all, the other party has a high status and is also helpful to the Cao Mansion.

The relationship between the concubine and the former dynasty was mutually beneficial, so the Cao Mansion also prepared a lot.

However, the wet nurse has prepared everything in the palace well, so there is no need for the Cao Mansion to worry about anything.

Concubine Rong gave birth to her baby safely, and she can breathe a sigh of relief in the warm winter.

After all, giving birth to a child in ancient times was quite dangerous.

Just as I took a breath, the Lantern Festival is here again.

Dong Nuan had been socializing for a few more days, and had almost no leisure time throughout the first month.

When he finally had some free time in February, Dong Nuan moved directly to Zhuangzi.

It’s cold in Beijing, so farming can’t start until the end of April or the beginning of May.

However, the land can be planted later, but the fruit trees need to be cultivated.

Pruning, trimming, and some things that need grafting also need to be observed in advance and then recorded in the book. When the time is right, you can start directly.

When you enter Zhuangzi, you feel like a fish entering the water, and you instantly feel at home in the warm winter weather.

Dozens of acres of fruit trees cannot be repaired just by repairing them.

After all, pruning is a technical job, and it cannot be done by just asking someone to do it.

A pruning master, with a few apprentices, might not be able to do it in less than ten days and a half.

Dong Nuan runs into the woods every day and helps out from time to time.

The pruning master knew Dong Nuan's skills, so he wasn't worried at all when watching Dong Nuan do it, and even asked some disciples who were not familiar with her skills to watch and learn more.

It warms up quickly in winter and has the power of origin, so you can improve some fruits that don’t taste very good.

Those disciples wanted to learn, but they couldn't keep up with the speed!

In the end, he returned to his master honestly.

Zhuangzi received a lot of disaster victims years ago, probably more than fifty.

The food distributed by the court could only allow them to eat half full. If they wanted to eat better, they had to sign a contract with Dong Nuan, and they would have to work in the village to pay back the food during the Chinese New Year.

Some people were cautious at first and did not dare to sign contracts with noble people.

However, some people think that it is not work for whom to work anyway?

They don't even have a home now, so staying in Zhuangzi would be quite good.

Therefore, they signed boldly. Some of them had read books and knew a few words. They could probably understand the content of the deed, and found that they were not deceived.

Then, more people signed.
