Her embroidery skills are not outstanding, and her embroidery skills are even worse than those of her eldest sister, but her simple sewing and mending work is passable.
When Xu Jiantian gets cold, his legs will inevitably feel uncomfortable.
When a person is sitting in a wheelchair, the upper half of his legs can be covered with a soup bag, but the lower half of his calves still have no warmth at all.
Xuan Su and the others also thought of some ways to keep warm, but unfortunately the results were not good.
Lin Yunyan just thought about making a pair of leggings to wear, which would be better than nothing.
At that time, the property of Duke Fu was still there, and there were a lot of things in the warehouse. Aunt Wu found a bag of camel hair. Although it was an old thing, it was well preserved.
Very soft and warmer than cotton.
Of course, for Xu Jian, this is only treating the symptoms rather than the root cause, but it is better to be more comfortable than to feel cold all the time.
Recalling the past, Lin Yunyan lowered her eyes and looked at Xu Jian's legs.
Xu Jian's injuries are now much lighter than before.
In the words of Concubine Wen in her previous post, if you didn't look carefully with your eyes wide open, you wouldn't have noticed that Xu Jian walked with a slight limp.
The shopkeeper of Taohe Zhai once mentioned that when it rains and the weather gets colder, Mr. Guo’s legs will feel uncomfortable.
This kind of discomfort, in Lin Yunyan's opinion, is definitely much better than sitting in a wheelchair before.
In this case, if you wear warmer leggings, the effect will definitely be better than before.
On the other side, Father-in-law Yu did not try to find a topic for these two people.
Just sweep it with powder and it will be clean. If these two people are so unforgiving, they smash the jade into pieces...
I can’t afford to be less than my father-in-law.
He was not idle either. Observing words and emotions was the forte of noble people like them who worked in front of them. He just observed and tasted, and bit by bit, he felt something.
However, the feeling flashed through his mind so fast that he could not describe it in words.
Just as Uncle Yu was racking his brains to capture the feeling of that moment again, Grandma Wang came out of the main hall and asked Xu Jian to go inside to say hello.
Xu Jian followed Grandma Wang in.
Lin Yunyan was still standing in the corridor, tilting her head and asking her father-in-law: "Why are you talking about the leg binding?"
Yu Gonggong said: "Isn't this caring about the Duke of Fu? After becoming a good military general, before having time to show his ambition, he..."
As he said this, he gave Lin Yunyan a "you understand" look.
Lin Yunyan really understands.
The reasons for regret mentioned by Father-in-Law are just mere words.
But he has never been a nosy person, he only likes to take care of the three acres of land in Cining Palace.
All the civil and military officials of the previous dynasty were considered "noisy business" for him.
Not only did Eunuch Yu take care of Xu Jian's business, but he also wanted to get Lin Yunyan to join him, so...
Lin Yunyan turned back and glanced in the direction of the main hall.
The Holy Spirit’s intention is already very clear.
Discuss marriage.
Lin Yunyan remembered that her marriage to Xu Jian was arranged in the early summer of the twelfth year of Yongjia.
When the imperial edict arrived at Uncle Chengyi's residence, Lin Yunyan went into the palace to greet the Empress Dowager, only to hear a few words from her.
It’s very simple and I’ll walk you through it in a hurry.
Lin Yunyan could feel that the Queen Mother was not satisfied with this marriage.
With the Empress Dowager's ability, she could definitely say a lot of good things, and Lin Yunyan could think of many advantages for her to marry into the Fuguo Palace, but the Empress Dowager didn't say any of them.
The Empress Dowager was in no mood to comfort her with those advantages.
This is not difficult to understand.
Despite all the good things, Xu Jian was not good at it at that time. This was his biggest shortcoming.
It was not until the spring of the thirteenth year of Yongjia, after she and Xu Jian got married that the Empress Dowager "accepted" the marriage and told her many words to live a good and peaceful life.
When it comes to the Liu family, it’s even more straightforward.
“Out of sight, out of mind.”
In her old words, when she was a queen, she also had a concubine who was an eyesore, and she really couldn't see her when she looked up.
Then just ignore it to the end.
Lin Yunyan would never let the Queen Mother worry, so she responded well.
So this time, why did you start thinking about this matter more than half a year in advance?
Or maybe it was just a matter of deliberation and back-and-forth, which took several months, but the empress dowager couldn't resist the emperor, so she issued the decree in the early summer of the 12th year?
In the bedroom, the Queen Mother looked at Xu Jian carefully several times.
"It seems like three years since the last time I came back to visit the Ai family?" she asked.
Xu Jian replied: "You remember clearly that in the eighth year of Yongjia, I followed my grandfather to the Yumen Pass and listened to your teachings together."
The Empress Dowager smiled slightly: "Time flies so fast."
When mentioning the situation at that time, His Majesty also looked very emotional.
That year, the Xiliang people came with great force.
In three days, several passes outside Yumen Pass were swallowed up, and the army approached the pass.
General Zhao, the old general of the Anxi General Mansion, led his sons and the garrison to defend fiercely. After the bloody battle, the gate was opened and the Xiliang people rushed in. The old general fought until the last moment, and his two sons and three grandsons were sacrificed, leaving Xiliang
Although the people were able to capture Yumen Pass, they were temporarily unable to continue marching eastward.
The successive wars shook the government and the public.
Xu Mang took the initiative to ask Ying to lead the troops, and appointed fourteen-year-old Xu Jian as the vanguard. He led a group of battlefield warriors and vowed to recapture Yumen.
We cannot let the people of Xiliang breathe and give them a chance to reorganize their army.
That was Xu Jian's first time on the battlefield.
The Empress Dowager felt sorry for Zhao Zhaoyi, whose family had died in the war, so she summoned the Xu family's descendants into the palace before the army set off.
Zhao Zhaoyi couldn't even shed tears. She only asked Xu Mang in a hoarse voice to avenge his relatives and repel the Xiliang people to comfort their souls in heaven.
This war raged from the beginning of the year to the end of the year.
The army re-entered Yumen Pass and ended the war with a great victory. Xu Jian made a contribution, but Xu Mang was injured.
The old bones couldn't stand the hard work. From then on, Xu Mang's health went downhill until he died of illness in the early 1990s of Yongjia more than a year later.
The Holy Master didn't want to think too much about what happened next, but looked at Xu Jian with a little guilt in his eyes.
Of course, the Empress Dowager also remembered the past and sighed: "I look much taller than back then, and my facial features are also longer."
Nanny Wang leaned close to the Empress Dowager's ear and said in a gentle voice: "How can three years be so bad? If the princess met her three years ago, she would probably have said 'duck call'."
The Empress Dowager was very happy and very satisfied with the ladder handed over by Grandma Wang. She followed it and said, "Why didn't Yun Yan come in? It's very cold outside. What is she doing standing there?"
Grandma Wang followed the good advice and immediately went to invite Lin Yunyan.
After all, the Empress Dowager’s purpose is to see if the auxiliary Duke and the princess are suitable, not to see what the auxiliary Duke looks like.
If the princess is not here, how can you control the eyes?
Lin Yunyan entered the bedroom and sat down obediently beside the Queen Mother's bed.
The Empress Dowager held her hand and said in a scolding tone: "I don't know how to hold a hand stove when it's cold."
