Remarry 9,000 Years Old

I don’t know if it’s because they are too tired from working so non-stop these days, or if both of them have let go of a heavy burden.

So he slept until noon.

Ning Su has been through wind and rain over the years, and often has to get up immediately at the slightest sign of trouble.

In the words of Emperor Ming, it is not easy to hold a high position, and sometimes you have to exchange your life for your future.

He hadn't had such a sound sleep for a long time.

So when Shen Nanqiao hurriedly got up and put on his clothes, he was still a little sleepy and hadn't recovered, so he muttered something subconsciously.

"It's rare that you have nothing to do, why are you getting up so early?"

In Ning Su's mind, he didn't have his parents-in-law to worry about, and he didn't have to go to Pingyuan Marquis' Mansion to do any work, so why bother?

But Shen Nanqiao's mind was full of thoughts, and she got up late at the beginning of the first year after getting married.

As a mistress, she should have a lot of things to take care of.

Even if there is no need to worship ancestors, you still have to prepare food in the small kitchen in case friends and relatives come to visit you and pay New Year's greetings. It is not good to let people go hungry.

Moreover, in the first month of the lunar year, it is important to have all the pots, bowls, and plates full, in order to wish for good luck and abundance in the coming year.

But he has been busy with palace affairs these days and has not had time to supervise personally, so he is afraid that his subordinates will not make good arrangements and something bad will happen on New Year's Day.

"It's getting late. It's almost noon. Hurry up and have your subordinates prepare the first day's meal. After eating, don't we have to go to pay New Year's greetings?"

Ning Su lazily folded his hands behind his head, admiring Shen Nanqiao's rare look of panic.

"Why are you in such a hurry? Haven't you heard that you can't rush people to get up on New Year's morning? Otherwise, you'll be rushed for the whole year."

Shen Nanqiao stopped buttoning her hair and looked at him in surprise.

"You care about these things too?"

"Just because I haven't had a family before doesn't mean I don't know anything." Ning Su changed into a comfortable position and continued to lean back. "When the old man was still alive, he was very particular about these things."

The scene of little Ning Su standing beside him, quietly listening to the old marquis telling these old stories automatically emerged in Shen Nanqiao's mind, and he couldn't help but shake his head and laugh.

But even though he laughed, he didn't dare to delay his actions for even a moment.

Shen Nanqiao hurriedly asked someone to bring in water to wash her face, and changed into a newly made crimson double-breasted jacket with embroidered patterns. Then the manager came to report.

Nanny Liu brought someone in. That person was the manager outside. His surname was Li. He was in charge of the relief rice and clothes these days.

Manager Li bowed respectfully to Shen Nanqiao.

"The relief money that Madam prepared was distributed to those people yesterday. Everyone thought that the money before the New Year was all they had, but who knew there would be an unexpected surprise. Everyone was so happy." He secretly glanced at Shen Nanqiao's expression, "We were originally planning to send a few representatives to thank you in person."

Shen Nanqiao sat there upright and nodded.

"That's not necessary. It's as if we are giving out money just for this good name."

Manager Li nodded repeatedly and said.

"I also thought that Madam would not accept it, so I thought about it and let them all go back."

Shen Nanqiao nodded.

It is human nature to repay kindness, and if those people receive this gratitude, they will feel at peace.

The less you seek rewards, the more those who have received your kindness will remember it.

He asked a few more questions whether the rice, grain and coal prepared earlier were sufficient, and whether the quilts and clothes were still sufficient, and then gave Manager Li a big red reward envelope.

The manager quickly declined.

"I've already received a reward from my wife at the end of the year, how dare I eat double the portion!"

"That was a reward for working a year last year. This is a new year and a new joy. They are two different things. Keep it."

Manager Li took the money and left with a smile on his face.

Ning Su was seen dressed up at some point and walking out from behind.

"Didn't they already give out pensions before the New Year? Why are they giving out more?"

Shen Nanqiao turned to look at him and told the story.

"Who doesn't eat dumplings during the Chinese New Year? It's not much money, just have fun and earn some extra favors."

She stretched out her hand to ask the waiters to leave, and continued in a low voice.

"A large part of them are the families of soldiers guarding the border. They have been through life and death out there, and what they care about most is their families. We take good care of these women, children, and the elderly, and we can relieve them of their worries."

The troops stationed in the capital of Great Chu and the soldiers guarding the border should be clearly separated and have little overlap.

But Shen Nanqiao showed favors to that group of people one after another, and it didn't seem like he did it without a purpose.

"Do you have any other plans?"

Ning Su looked around and saw that she had sent everyone away, so he guessed that things were not that simple.

Shen Nanqiao cleared his throat and lowered his voice to a very low level.

"Although the emperor trusts you, serving the emperor is like serving a tiger. Even a cunning rabbit knows three burrows, not to mention that you are in a high position, so you must always think three steps ahead before taking one step."

Ning Su was slightly shocked.

This is not the first time the little girl has said this. The last time I accompanied her back home, she also said something shocking.

Judging from the tone of her words, it doesn't seem to be groundless. Could it be that she has insight into something unknown?

"Why do you say that, ma'am?"

Shen Nanqiao was startled by the word "Madam". When she came to her senses, Ning Su was already sitting beside her, pouring her a cup of longan and lotus seed tea and handing it to her.

She calmed herself down by drinking tea.

"Although you are in a very powerful position right now, you still have great power. It would be good if the emperor were still here one day, but if..." She paused, and the rest of the words were self-evident.

Ning Su was not a fool, so he naturally understood the unfinished meaning.

She was worried about the prince's attitude after Emperor Ming's death.

"After all, I brought him up, so I won't abandon him after he's done with me."

He raised his eyes to look at Shen Nanqiao. Against the light, the little girl's expression was visibly serious.

"The king's mind is unpredictable. Maybe not when he is the crown prince, but it is hard to say after he becomes the monarch."

The atmosphere in the room fell silent for a moment.

The couple each had their own thoughts. After a while, Shen Nanqiao gritted his teeth and spoke.

"Have you ever thought about..."

"Jojo!"

He usually called her by her nickname, which always sounded a little tender, but the tone he used now made people feel cold to the core.

"The outside world is a man's battlefield." He softened his tone, "If I marry a wife and let her worry about these things, I would be unworthy of being the head of the family."

Shen Nanqiao sighed softly in his heart.

For a moment, it was hard to guess whether Ning Su trusted the prince too much, or thought his ideas were too shocking.

But having said that, I might as well just open the skylight.

She said in one breath.

"Whether you have thought about this before or not, I still hope you will think about it after today." She felt like she was trying to deceive you halfway through her words, so she softened her tone a little, "Just think of it as a precaution."

Maybe it was because her tense little face was too serious, but Ning Su suddenly smiled.

"How do you know I never thought about it?"
