Although we were very excited to take the train today, we were also quite tired. After all, I have been busy for more than eight hours. Many people were standing without seats.
After checking into the inn, take a shower and get ready to rest.
The outside of the inn was tightly guarded by a squadron of the Cavalry Instruction Regiment. Except for the doorman. Mobile sentries and concealed sentries were also deployed.
The interior of the inn compound and each floor is controlled by a squadron of the female guard battalion led by Huang Daya and Huang Erya.
They all came by train. After all, no matter how fast the cavalry rides, they can't keep up with the train.
In the largest upper room in the inn, under the service of the maid, Lin Yueru and Xiao Niangpi were ready to sleep after taking a bath.
Huang Ximei walked in with two female medical students aged sixteen or seventeen, carrying a medicine box.
She also came with the train. Although Yang Fan left for the war, he left the health of the two ladies in the hands of Huang Ximei, the best female doctor at present.
Huang Ximei, who comes from a family of traditional Chinese medicine and orthopedics, has four brothers, all of whom currently work at Xincheng Hospital with his father Huang Yongtai. She became a military doctor and now regularly checks the health of the female family members at home.
Xiao Niangpi and Lin Yueru were wearing snow-white princess dresses and pajamas, sitting on the edge of the bed, yawning. After Huang Ximei finished the examination, he was ready to rest.
They are very playful. Today they took the train and had a lot of fun. But also tired.
Huang Ximei came over and felt their pulses one after another, and then used a stethoscope to listen to the fetal sounds.
After checking carefully for a while, he said: "Madams, after this time, I don't recommend that you go out to play again. In more than a month, it will be the due date. You should pay attention to rest. Just take a walk in the morning and evening, and walk your legs. Don’t overwork yourself.”
The little girl smiled and said, "I listen to you. After I go back this time, I won't come out."
Lin Yueru cares more about the child in her belly than the little girl. This is her lifelong meal ticket. From now on, in the Yang Mansion, a mother will be more valuable than her son, which will be her lifelong capital.
"Mr. Huang, is everything normal?"
"Second Madam, don't worry, you and Madam, it's very normal. You are both martial arts practitioners, your bodies are already strong, and the food you eat at home is good, low in fat and high in protein. Your nutrition is so good, and you have always been checked. It’s normal. Just don’t worry.”
Lin Yueru and Xiao Niangpi suddenly smiled. What they care about most now is the baby in their belly.
And both of them are somewhat competitive. They knew very well that Yang Fan didn't have much distinction in his heart. As long as it is your own child, you will all like it the same.
However, public opinion in this era is not like this. Who can give Yang Fan a son is a huge matter.
Although the secular custom is that there are direct descendants, but no direct descendants. Xiao Niangpi is the legitimate wife, and the first son she gives birth to is the legitimate eldest son. However, both of them could see that in Yang Fan's eyes, he did not necessarily have the distinction of concubine and concubine, and what he valued more may be moral character and talent. 33
This child is Yang Fan's eldest son and will inherit Yang Fan's family business in the future.
Didn’t you see that the temple’s issue of establishing a prince caused trouble in the court for decades?
However, this kind of thing can only be decided by God. If God doesn’t give it, no one can do anything about it.
Xiao Niangpi knew that Yao Guang had many magical abilities. She originally wanted to see Yao Guang to see if the baby in her belly was a boy or a girl, but Yao Guang rejected her. It is said that the master specifically told me before leaving that he was not allowed to check the gender of the fetus.
They usually eat well and healthily. There is no junk food or artificial feeding additives in this era. They are all green and healthy foods. The Yang family is so rich that they eat the best or even the most top-notch ingredients in the world.
We only eat Ujimqin lamb for mutton, and only a limited number of high-quality beef varieties. Seafood products include deep-sea hairtail from the Ming Dynasty, cold sea cucumbers with more than five spines, two or three abalones, and large prawns that are one foot long. Mullet roe, fish maw belly, rat spotted grouper. There’s even bluefin tuna delivered from the Horn of Africa. South African golden abalone, Kobe beef and the like.
There are also more than a dozen people who came from the grasslands in the mansion to make beef, mutton and dairy products. They both drink yogurt with fruits such as strawberry pellets and yellow peach chunks every day.
They both gained a lot of weight and their cheeks became rounder.
Everyone in Yang Fan's system was staring at the two ladies' bellies. This is the guarantee of a happy life for their descendants.
Huang Ximei was under a lot of pressure. If something went wrong, she couldn't bear the huge responsibility.
At this time, Sun Xiaowei from the Secretariat came in with a large pile of assassins begging to be seen. She just graduated from Xinghe Academy Women's College this year. The secretariat was assigned.
"Madam, Second Madam, these are the invitations and gift lists sent by local businessmen and workshop owners in Xuanfu Town. I hope to see the two ladies tomorrow."
Hearing that there was a gift list, the little girl took it with a smile.
Tushan stalls are accustomed to receiving gifts. This is a habit developed in Dongchang.
Lin Yueru curled her lips in disdain. She didn't look down on Xiao Niangpi's petty, landlord-like behavior.
Tu Shanyue didn't care at all and said with a smile: "Miss Lin is a nine-thousand-year-old daughter. She is a person who has seen the big world. Naturally, you can't look down on these things. Naturally, they are not from small families like us. Comparable."
Xiao Niangpi flipped through the thick pile of name badges and the gift list inside, feeling very satisfied.
"I didn't expect that in this borderland, there are all sensible people. Since they are so honest, I will take the time to meet them tomorrow." The little girl looked like I was very busy and I was helpless.
Lin Yueru said: "What a borderland, Zhangjiakou is a busy place for commerce. It is the hub of trade between the grasslands and the mainland. If Zhangjiakou hadn't been burned down and all the merchants had gone to Xuanfu Town, it would have been a really prosperous place." land."
Xiao Niangpi looked at her sideways and said, "Miss Lin is so noble. If I don't give you a gift, it will be included in the public accounts."
Lin Yueru grabbed the pile of gift lists that Xiao Niangpi had separated out and said, "That's not okay, this is for my baby. As a mother, I naturally have to keep it for him."
Xiao Niangpi looked disdainful and expressed her disdain for Lin Yueru's upright and upright behavior. He talks about himself, but he doesn't hold it softly in his hands.
"What do they want to do when they come to see you? When you treat others with courtesy, you must ask for something." Lin Yueru asked.
"What else can happen? Now that there is a train from Zhangjiakou to Beijing, logistics has been greatly improved. From here to Tianjin Port, it will be opened by the end of the year. In the future, materials on the grassland and local materials and commodities can be transported by train and sea ship. All along the coast and cities along the rivers of the Ming Dynasty. Businessmen are the most sensitive people. How could they not rush to fawn over such a big event?"
Lin Yueru nodded and said: "That's the truth. The opening of the railway is subversive to the improvement of transportation. Businessmen know the importance of roads best. Without roads, good things cannot be transported in or out. The so-called smooth flow of goods The only way to make money is to make money. They want to get on the train to transport this train."
Xiao Niangpi said with emotion: "It turns out that I just took it for granted that building the railway was a bottomless pit of pure money. It was invented by the master in order to control the territory acquired in the north and transport military supplies. Now it seems that although the initial investment in the railway is huge, , but in the long run, not only can the cost be recovered, but it may also be the chicken that lays golden eggs. Just look at the value of these gift orders, which are more than 7,000 taels of silver. If the railway did not make such a big profit, would they give such a heavy gift? .”
Some people died, but not completely...
