The pastoral life of the reborn farmer

Chapter 83

"What's for lunch?" Shen Ling took the bucket back to the kitchen and came out to ask Han Shi, smiling.

"It's fine! I'll cook what you want to eat!" Han Shi walked towards the kitchen.

Shen Ling stretched out his hand to stop it, "If you're pregnant, you can rest."

"But..." Han Shi wanted to say something, but Shen Ling already shook his head, "You have to rest, take a few steps to move around, but you can't do work. Speaking of which, here we are. After the county is established, I will invite two maids to take care of you, so you don't need to take care of your clothing, food, housing, and transportation."

Han Shi blushed and lowered his head, and said naively, "Isn't this not very good! Shuang'er in the village? They are all able to work until a living."

"We are rich, why do we still use you to work?" Shen Ling said gently: "Didn't I say it before, when I have money in the future, I will buy you ginseng, Eat it when you give birth, how much you want to eat, and two servants?"

Han Shi blushed even more and couldn't help but get closer to Shen Ling, he really likes Shen Ling! Shen Ling took advantage of the situation to stop Han Shi's shoulders, but did not dare to exert any force, for fear of squeezing Han Shi's stomach.

"Cough...cough...cough..." Mu Hongyuan walked in and saw this scene, coughing several times before interrupting the two of Shen Ling.

Shen Ling's face is not good, don't you know to hide when she sees people being intimate! What does it mean to interrupt others if you have to come in, what is the important thing worth doing.

Han Shi had already entered the room ashamed and refused to come out to say hello to Mu Hongyuan. Shen Ling watched Han Shi enter the room before turning around to look at Mu Hongyuan, "Is something wrong?"

"I said little brother! I found that you recently Your attitude towards me is getting worse and worse, especially after you get used to it, you just hit me and scold me whenever you want, and you also use your gentleness on me a little bit!"

"Gentleness? I Have you been gentle? I've never been gentle with outsiders." Shen Ling raised an eyebrow.

"But you treat Han Shi..."

"He's my wife!"

"Then you treat strangers..."

"They're strangers!"

Mu Hongyuan was speechless, "So I'm the most unlucky, right? "

Well." Shen Ling nodded, "Who made us too familiar? I don't need to pretend in front of you, right? Or, do you like when I called you Mu Gongzi?"

Mu Hongyuan He quickly raised his hand and refused, "Don't! The relationship that I managed to pull in, I still like it now."

Shen Ling thought about it and felt that it was really not good for him, so he said, "I will try my best not to bully in the future. You, besides, I've never hit you!"

"You always hit me with your eyes..." Mu Hongyuan looked sad.

Shen Ling nodded, "Then I'll try to control my eyes from now on."

Mu Hongyuan:

"I have something to do with you?" Shen Ling went to the kitchen to get a wine glass, which was a lotus leaf wine glass of Bifang Wine, and there were still some in the kitchen. Two jars of Bifang wine were brought by the steward for Shen Ling to drink.

"Have a drink." Shen Ling smiled and put the wine set on the stone bench in the yard, then went back to the kitchen to get the wine jar, the wine jug, and the utensils for scooping the wine, and scooped the wine into the open wine jug. Ling smiled and poured the wine glass slowly.

"Good lotus leaf dew, you make it look like you are going to do three altars." Mu Hongyuan walked over and sat down, "But your mind is delicate enough. Last time my father said, let me Get him a few jars of wine, but what's so good about this wine? Brother, you made this wine, can you tell me what the connotation of this wine is? I can't taste it at all! But every time I am in When asked from the outside, did you say that you are drinking Bifang wine? Everyone followed along and talked about it, a bunch of gentleman wine, lotus poems, and so on came out, and no one could talk about the righteousness."

Shen Ling After thinking for a while, "I don't know, what kind of gentleman's wine is said, just like lotus leaf dew, it's all made up by me, don't say it!"

"Don't worry." Mu Hongyuan became more and more lonely. , "Because I know you too well, and I also know that this gentleman's wine lotus poem is made up by you to sell wine, so I don't understand, where can this wine be! The price is so expensive, I think It hurts."

Shen Ling raised his head, he knew that Mu Hongyuan had such a temper, so he would say something to him like that, and he didn't care whether he sold the wine, he still admired Mu Hongyuan's kind The slightly upright son has a temperament, there are too many complicated people in this world, and two more pure and sincere ones are also good.

Shen Lingdao: "It's true, I don't understand, in fact, Bifang wine didn't sell very well at first, and it wasn't because Mr. Fu admired this wine and sent it to the palace, and the emperor liked it, and everyone followed suit. "

Then what do you think Mr. Fu and the emperor liked about this wine? My father also said last time that this wine was good, but it didn't look like he was following the trend. He really liked it! He also said that he wanted me to get a few more jars to prepare at home. Besides, now I have a drink every day after eating, not drinking it."

Shen Ling was also puzzled, does this wine really have any special benefits? Shen Ling took a sip from the wine glass and sipped it, but it was just cool and refreshing, drinking it like a drink.

"Forget it, let's not mention this wine, you know that General Wei is coming to Huaizhou? He even lives in the county office."

"I know." Shen Ling nodded.

"My father asked me to ask you, why did he come here?"

"Cough cough..." Shen Ling choked violently.

"What's wrong?"

"It's okay, I just didn't expect you to ask so directly." Shen Ling shook his head, suddenly couldn't hold back a laugh, and quickly stopped.

Mu Hongyuan was speechless, "Did I go around you in circles, or did I cross your mind? I'm not stupid! I'll ask you directly, maybe you can tell me, I'll go around twice more, just to ask for a little news. If you don't come out, you will be kicked out instead."

"Understand me." Shen Ling patted Mu Hongyuan's shoulder and praised: "You have to say it so clearly, I really don't know how to answer for a while. You."

"Tell me the truth, there's nothing hard to answer." Mu Hong said far away.

Shen Ling hesitated for a moment, and said, "I'm a person! I'm lazy, and I don't have any ambitions. I just want to do my business well, and I don't want to be an official or a slaughter, nor do I want to get involved in the court struggle. Wei Jing told me a little bit about the Wei family, I said I didn't know at all and you wouldn't believe me, right?"

Mu Hongyuan nodded.

Shen Ling continued: "Wei Jing and I were indeed brothers in Chengxian for a while. At that time, he told me that the Mu family and the Wei family were enemies, and he also hinted that the Mu family let the enemy in or something, but He is implying, if you insist that he said it, there is absolutely no evidence..."

"Nonsense!" Mu Hongyuan slammed the table and stood up, angry, but the table in Shen Ling's yard was a stone table, Mu Hongyuan Hongyuan was only stubborn for a moment, then he frowned while covering his sore hands, "Oh..."

"My Mu family didn't do such a shitty thing, and I have to cut off my descendants!" Mu Hongyuan still didn't forget to add a sentence in pain. .

Shen Ling nodded, "I don't believe it either!"

"That's it! His general guard is upright, and my Mu family is not bad! Letting the enemy enter the country is also a false accusation. I'm not afraid of bad words. This battle How many soldiers have been killed, how many people's homes have been destroyed, and the entire Chuzhou has been ruined. Such a big crime can be pushed to my Mu family by just touching Wei Jing's lips?! Impossible!"

Shen Ling nodded quickly and pulled Mu Hongyuan to sit down.

"He came to Huaizhou to investigate this matter?" Mu Hongyuan said angrily.

"No, I only know that he didn't plan to come to Huaizhou at first, and he said he wanted to go back to Chuzhou to help or something. Suddenly, one night passed, and he immediately set off for Huaizhou. I heard that it was because of personal affairs." Shen Ling didn't want to let the Mu family hurriedly confront Shang Wei Jing, so he said.

"Private business?"

Shen Ling nodded, "It's a private matter, I'm sure, otherwise he wouldn't come to Huaizhou at this time!"

Mu Hongyuan thought for a while, "Do you know what it's a private matter?"

Shen Ling shook his head, "Since it's a private matter, how would I know?"

Mu Hongyuan sighed and sat silent. After a long time, Mu Hongyuan murmured, "Impossible, right?"

"Er?" Shen Ling was stunned, puzzled.

"How could someone let the enemy troops enter? Right?" Mu Hongyuan's eyes flickered slightly, and he looked at Shen Ling, "My father is a county government office, my brother was admitted to the Imperial Academy and became an official in the Hanlin Academy. Guangming, my family has more than four generations, a scholarly family, an aristocratic family, do I need to do that kind of thing?"

Shen Ling didn't know how to answer. In fact, he believed in Wei Jing more, and Mu Hongyuan had some doubts in his heart! Even if it was an instinctive rebuttal at first, but after two more turns in my mind, I couldn't help but start to doubt, so I asked this question.

"Brother, do you believe me in the Mu family or Wei Jing?" Mu Hongyuan grabbed Shen Ling's arm.

Shen Ling paused, "If I had to choose between Wei Jing and you, I would definitely support you." His relationship with Wei Jing was not that good yet.

Mu Hongyuan smiled, as if he was relieved, but the hidden worries in the depths of his eyes did not subside in the slightest, "That's right! I'm going back to the capital to study, my father finally can't stand my lack of knowledge at home, so he wants to Let me go to Beijing."

Shen Ling nodded, "Go! It should be."

"Send me off! I want you to make Hundred Flowers Wine!" Mu Hongyuan stood up and laughed, this is Shen In the book "Hua Jian Ji" written by Ling, it is said to be brewed with Baihua. He has been interested in it for a long time, and he has also secretly inquired about it. He knows that Shen Ling's Baihua wine has been brewed and is about to come out of the cellar. Well, he must drink to the first jar first.

Shen Ling shook his head helplessly, "Your ears are too sharp!"

"That's it, I'll wait for your wine!"

"Okay." Shen Ling nodded. "It just so happens that I'm leaving, no matter how it's brewed, let's do it first."

"Are you going to take Han Shi to live in Chengxian? What's wrong with Huaizhou?" Mu Hongyuan said. .

Shen Ling paused, "I will stay in Chengxian a lot next, and all the wines that I can remember have been made by the people in the wine shop. My focus below should be on porcelain, you can also see Here, in fact, my thoughts on porcelain are no less than that of winemaking." Shen Ling raised the lotus leaf wine glass to Mu Hongyuan to see.

Mu Hongyuan nodded, "If you say it, I will believe it."

The wine glass raised by Shen Ling trembled slightly, and the liquor swayed into a circle of water waves.

Mu Hongyuan had already laughed, "Brother Shen, you are my brother, of course I believe you."

Shen Ling originally wanted to say the same thing he told Mu Wu at the beginning, and just said that we are brothers, but I don't know why , I couldn't say a word, just stuck in my throat and could only laugh.

After seeing off Mu Hongyuan, Han Shi came out of the room with a serious face, and said to Shen Ling, "Actually, I seem to have heard about the war in Mu's house."

"Oh? Who said it?" Shen Ling Laughing, he didn't care.

"It's the third son. The third son once went to the study to deliver food to Mr. Mu. He heard someone in the study say that he would only fight in Chuzhou. The people inside found out that Master Mu even scolded the third son, making the third son angry!"

Shen Ling restrained his smile and pressed Han Shi's shoulder, "This matter is not allowed to be mentioned again, I know. " Yes

." Han Shi bit his lip and nodded.

"Little Stone, let's go to Chengxian, the sooner the better, okay?" Shen Ling said warmly.

"Okay, but what about the third son and the others?" Han Shi raised his head, "Will something bad happen?" Han Shi's eyes were a little worried. In fact, Han Shi is also very keen on certain things, although only a few words. , but he also sensed something was wrong.

Shen Ling paused for a while, "The Mu family is protected by Lao Fu, with deep roots, no problem, we left, not to avoid disasters, but for you to take good care of your baby, and I don't want to get involved in these disturbances, It has nothing to do with the Mu family, there will be no accident in the Mu family, understand?"

Han Shi nodded.
