My husband Zhuge Kongming

Chapter 28 27. Arrangements for the guards

As soon as the first year of the year passed, some greenery appeared in the fields.

Some half-grown children carried bamboo baskets and searched for wild vegetables (shepherd's purse and other wild vegetables) in the fields.

Hearing what Zhang Gan just said, and under the explanation of the older children, a group of younger children shouted excitedly.

"Oh! Sister is now Mr. Chu An!"

"Congratulations sister!"

"Sister, isn't she a great official now?"

"Is it bigger than Grandpa's official?"

"Sister, sister! There is a horse! Ride a big horse!"

"The young lady of the host family...has a title!"

"My God! Now our Zhuangzi has a nobleman!"

"I'm going to tell Father and Mother!"

"I'll go back and tell them too!"

Hearing the voices of these siblings and other children, and seeing them bouncing away, Huang Yueying also had a smile in her eyes.

She herself doesn't care about this so-called title, but for others, it is a kind of glory and hope. They may not have the idea that I can do it, but in the future, they will not be sure.

"Congratulations sister, you have been rewarded by the emperor!" Huang Cong did not run away, but stood beside Huang Yueying, and congratulated seriously.

His father has already gone to Xiangyang, and although his mother is in good weather, she still has to manage the house, as the eldest brother, naturally she has to take her younger siblings with her.

It's just that the children in the village don't have much to do. Seeing some wild vegetables sprouting in the fields, they want to pick some and share some with the family.

Huang Yueying patted Huang Cong's head and said, "Cong'er will grow up to be much stronger than sister."

"Of course!" Huang Cong replied with a smile, secretly making up his mind that after entering school, he must work harder so as to catch up with his sister's footsteps.

……

The entire Huangjiazhuangzi suddenly boiled.

It turned out that the business of Chu paper was good, with cars and horses coming and going, the village was already much more lively than before. Both the Huang clan and the tenants had expectations for the future.

Now, as soon as the emperor's reward comes, this is like a shot of adrenaline for the Mianyang Huang family, who has no official career in these two generations: there are those who laugh out loud, and there are also those who cry out loud.

However, no matter what, they all prepared congratulations, dragged their family members, and came to Huang Yueying's house.

……

At home, Mrs. Cai did not expect that the emperor's reward would arrive today after she asked her daughter what she was going to do a few days ago.

"Aya, how is it?" Huang Chengyan smiled and held his wife's hand, the corners of his mouth could not stop rising.

The emperor's reward was in line with his prediction.

It is difficult for an emperor who has been held in the air to give any reward with real power.

Xujue and so on, of course there are as many as you want.

But that didn't stop him from being happy.

"Although I am happy in my heart, I am still worried about Ah Chu." Cai shook her head helplessly and smiled wryly, "I always feel that what Ah Chu has to do is a bit too big. After all, she is a daughter's family..."

"So, I need to find a capable husband-in-law for her." Huang Chengyan thought for a while, "I will pay more attention to visiting friends after the next year."

"En." Cai thought for a while, nodded in agreement, and added, "You have to look carefully."

"It's worth it."

The couple looked at each other and smiled.

"Let's go, there are guests coming."

……

Huang Yueying didn't know what the old parents were thinking, she only knew that the conversation she had with Cai the other day would have to be faced sooner or later.

Now that Liu Xie's reward has arrived, she will do things much more smoothly in the future.

Although there is no food town, there is a nomination head.

Moreover, the assets she obtained made her very satisfied. After this calculation, when this matter calmed down, she would have as many as nearly ten thousand mu of land in her hands.

Of course, in this era, the land is sparsely populated, and many resources have not yet been developed. It would be unthinkable to put it in later generations.

The ten thousand gold rewarded by the emperor is only ten thousand qian, which is not much, but one thousand mu of land is real.

Liu Biao also gave [-] acres, plus some jade, silk and ancient books, the value is not low, let alone [-] good horses.

During this period, Jingzhou did not produce horses, but those who can be called good horses must at least meet the minimum standards for war horses. In addition to the five horses given by Zhang Gan and the few brought by Gan Ning, they can make up a cavalry Connected.

In the era of cold weapons, cavalry deterred infantry with great power.Thinking of this, she thought of the two Chu paper agents in Youzhou and Bingzhou, and she would have to meet them after a while.

"Ah Chu, everything is put in." Gan Ning smiled. Seeing that Zhou Yang arranged for someone to lock the warehouse, he walked over, and then untied a delicate dagger from his waist. Jun Xiao is dead, but as Ah Chu's elder brother, he has not given Ah Chu Heyi yet."

"This is the dagger I spent a lot of money on for self-defense a few years ago. It was made by Baisteel. Today, I gave it to Ah Chu."

Hundreds of steelmaking?Huang Yueying took the dagger and pulled it out, only to see that the dagger was all silvery white without a trace of rust, and the blade was even a little bitter.

His fingers lightly touched the edge of the blade, feeling the sharpness, but before he could react, pain came from his fingertips.

"Chu be careful!" Gan Ning just wanted to remind, but Huang Yueying had retracted her finger, and explained, "This dagger is extremely sharp, and I have been keeping it very carefully for my brother. Of course, it has also seen blood, so it can be regarded as Brother is one of the few valuable things."

Huang Yueying looked at the not-so-deep blood line, put the dagger back into the sheath, sighed at the sharpness of the dagger, and shook her head, "This is my brother's favorite, Ah Chu can't take it."

"It's just a dagger. Could it be that Ah Chu thinks that he can't find a better one for his brother in the future?" Gan Ning knew that Huang Yueying would refuse, but he didn't intend to take it back.

After hearing this, Huang Yueying slightly raised her eyebrows and laughed, "Then brother will know in a month, and since that's the case, Ah Chu will accept it."

"It should be so." Gan Ning smiled, and immediately realized, "Wait a month? What does Ah Chu mean?"

"Probably, it will take a month before I can give my brother a big gift."

"Hahaha, then I'm waiting for a big gift from Ah Chu!"

"Okay, brother, let's not talk about this. It's the soldiers under brother, let me set a checkpoint for a test in a few days."

"Up to you." Gan Ning also smiled, looking at Huang Yueying with more loving eyes.

In the past ten days or so, he has thought a lot.

Since he was a child, he was very self-confident, and he felt that he would be able to make a career out of it. During this period, some people agreed and some opposed, but no one was like Huang Yueying, who really considered from his standpoint.

What Huang Yueying said to him a few days ago, although it sounded uncomfortable, she couldn't refute it, and it was really for his consideration.

He didn't understand why Huang Yueying wanted to help him like this, after all...there are many people in this world, but he knew that Huang Yueying never underestimated him, and regarded him as his elder brother, which was enough.

"In the past few days, please brother and everyone have a good meal and rest."

"That's as it should be."

The two immediately looked at each other and smiled.

"Uncle Zhou, prepare dinner for elder brother and his brothers." Huang Yueying said to Zhou Yang, "At the same time, tell the village that if clansmen or tenants intend to become guards, they can sign up within five days, and will be selected after ten days. "

"promise."

On the side, Gan Ning couldn't help sighing, Ah Chu's mind is much more delicate than his, "Ah Chu is good at planning."

Huang Yueying trusted him, but the rest of the village didn't, not to mention, Wang Wu had previously said that he wanted to grab things.

If there are people from the village participating in the selection, it will be easier for others to accept the formation of the guard team.

Huang Yueying smiled, "For the people brought by my elder brother, those who are over forty and under eighteen, who are physically injured or who don't want to be guards, can still directly settle in my Huangjiazhuangzi, this point remains unchanged."

"As for those who participated in the selection but were not selected, they can become reserve members of the guard team and also participate in training at ordinary times, but they will pay more attention to logistics coordination and cooperation."

"Logistics coordination?" Gan Ning seemed to understand, but also didn't seem to understand.

"Brother, you must understand what war is and what the essence of war is."

Gan Ning thought for a while, then shook his head. These two questions seem simple, but they are actually complex, and it is not clear at all, "I would like to hear the details."

"It's cold, let's go in and have some tea."

"Alright."

"Brother please."
