The door was already open. When Prince Jin was led by Xiao Huzi, he saw Ning Jiayin smiling brightly while eating a bunch of strange things. This smile came from the heart and made people feel comfortable at first sight. Wanting to laugh too, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly. The sadness caused by the man in black in the past few days seemed to have dissipated a lot. Fortunately, he didn't listen to the old lady and wait at Ning's house. Otherwise, he would never have seen Miss Ning so frank and cute. side.
Everyone was immersed in eating the gourd. By the time everyone noticed, King Jin had already arrived in front of Ning Jiayin. There was a smile on his usually stern face. This smile was just infected by Ning Jiayin: "What is this? It's delicious. ?"
Ning Jiayin was startled and almost choked. Ding Xiang was so frightened that she quickly patted the girl on the back. Ning Jiayin coughed twice before she recovered and complained: "Did you know you could get killed if you do this?"
After saying this, he suddenly remembered that this was the King of Jin, so he raised the candied haws in his hand with embarrassment and asked: "Do you want to eat it?" After asking, he regretted it. How could the majestic prince eat such an ungracious candied haws at a reduced price? .
Unexpectedly, King Jin whispered: "Okay"
"Ah?" Ning Jiayin couldn't believe what she heard. She didn't know whether to give or not to give the candied haws in her hand. King Jin stretched out his long arm and took the bunch of candied haws from Ning Jiayin's hand and put it in his mouth. It tastes sour and sweet when you bite it lightly.
Chunni quickly took a few more skewers and gave them to Xiao Huzi, Fufeng and others respectively. These people took them over unceremoniously. The prince had already eaten them, and they wanted to eat them too. When they bit into their mouths, they were like ordinary hawthorns. The outside was crispy and sweet, and Fufeng couldn't help but sigh: Miss Ning seems to be particularly talented in eating, and the taste of anything changes in her hands.
"It's King Jin, it's really King Jin, King Jin..." King Jin has been guarding the border for nearly ten years, and some of the veterans have been retired for less than ten years, so one or two people recognized King Jin, and his voice was like the wind Spread among veterans. Although some veterans are not under the command of King Jin, they are soldiers. Although they retired due to physical reasons, the feelings of family and country honed in the army will still make them pay attention to the movements on the front line. Naturally, they also know that this person has been a soldier since he was a child. Prince Jin who went to the frontier
The scene was a bit strange for a moment. The five-foot-tall men, each holding a bunch of candied haws, looked at the God of War with admiration. Martial arts practitioners have sharp ears and eyes. Of course, King Jin also heard their voices, and he turned around. He turned around and looked around, staring deeply at everyone. They were all wounded soldiers who could not fight. After they were discharged from the army, they were given some pensions and left. He never thought about how they would survive after they retired. Since the last time After seeing it, he was really deeply touched.
Only then did everyone come back to their senses and quickly gave a military salute. Although the voice was incomplete, the voice was still loud and clear: "I have met King Jin!" King Jin quickly said in vain: "Sirs, don't be so polite. You are here for the imperial court. The border guards were seriously injured, but the court did not accommodate you. The court is ashamed of you.
The veterans were stunned for a moment after hearing this. They had never thought that such emotional words would be spoken by a prince. Uncle Yu clasped his fists again: "Your Majesty, please don't say that. I will also receive a pension when I retire." Golden."
As soon as he opened his mouth, someone answered: "Yes, there are so many injured people, how can the court accommodate them?"
In fact, these remnants were ignored and complained when they returned to their hometown, but people's hearts are so simple. Although they had suffered so many grievances before, they felt relieved when King Jin said this, and the dignified princes apologized to them. Got it!
Ning Jiayin listened on the sidelines. In fact, the issue of placement of veterans is a legacy of the imperial court's mechanism and history. In previous lives, the country prioritized placement of veterans. In previous lives, there were many institutions and factories that needed these people, but In ancient times, most families owned properties and there were no factories, so it was impossible for everyone to make full use of them.
It was also the first time for King Jin to come into contact with these people. He had never thought that their lives were so difficult but he never complained about the court. He became more and more moved, but he could not say anything else. After all, what the court could do was limited, and it was not as good as what Miss Ning did. There were so many, he sighed: "Miss Ning can arrange your life without any worries, but the court failed to do it, I'm really ashamed!" After hearing what King Jin said, everyone suddenly turned their attention. , Prince Jin and Miss Ning are so familiar with each other, and looking at their relationship, the girl does not put Prince Jin in a superior position, and the prince seems to be very special to Miss Ning.
Everyone couldn't help but look at each other.
Prince Jin was a little embarrassed under everyone's gaze. He covered his mouth and coughed: "I'll take Miss Ning to the palace for follow-up consultation with the imperial concubine."
"Ah, oh" everyone looked like they were suddenly enlightened.
Is it ten days today? Ning Jiayin thought, why so fast? It's time for the Zhang family to go. It's already time to remove the stitches. She was supposed to go two days ago, but because of the incident about the man in black, the wet nurse didn't let her go. She was thinking of going to follow up with Concubine Yun Gui. Let's go together, one day in the morning and one day in the evening. The old lady in the Duke's Mansion also needs to have her waist checked. I don't know if I have enough time, so I can only wait until she comes out of the palace.
Ning Jiayin looked at her clothes because they were stained with oil and sugar water when she was working. She said to Prince Jin, "I'll go back and change clothes."
The wet nurse had to follow her when she went back to change clothes. Because King Jin and his guards were there, Ning Jiayin only took Ding Xiang with her, leaving Chunni and Chunmei to continue making candied haws with Uncle Qian.
"Let Xiao Huzi take the finished ones back and give a portion to the young masters first. Chunmei, finish all the remaining hawthorns and take them back to the house and give one to each of you."
This sentence instantly aroused Fufeng's envy.
"Okay miss, Chunmei readily agreed."
Ning Jiayin suddenly thought of something. Ning Jiayin tilted her head and looked at King Jin: "Would you like to take some to the palace?"
"Well, bring more." Prince Jin was not polite at all. He thought to himself that this stuff is sour and sweet, and quite delicious. He might as well give some to his father and grandmother.
Then simply bring more to the old lady and Guo Jingke. Ning Jiayin pointed to the already full straw handle and told Fufeng: "Put more straw in this handle, and I will bring some to the old lady." .”
"You can't carry straw when you walk to the palace," Fufeng reminded.
Chunni answered from the side: "What's so difficult about this? The candied haws skewers are hot now and will cool down after a while. Just go back to the house and get a pack of rice paper."
Ning Jiayin knew that Chuni was a thorn in Fufeng, so she said to Chuni, "We Chunni are smart."
Chuni blushed instantly, and Fufeng also stared at Chuni with a blushing face.
The group said goodbye to the veteran again.
