The fake daughter married into the mountains and had meat to eat every day during the famine

Xu Wencheng stayed at home for half a month.

Half a month later, he entered the reserve camp of the General Zhenxi as a military candidate.

Before leaving, Song Yuntang prepared a lot of detoxification pills, wound medicine, hemostatic medicine and hunger-relief pills for him.

There are several recipes for hunger-relieving pills alone. Taking one pill before a battle can keep you from feeling hungry for the whole day.

In addition, he spent a lot of money to buy him a good horse and equipped it with a light and practical horse armor.

It’s a pity that I didn’t get the legendary invulnerable golden soft armor.

Otherwise, I'd really like to get one for him.

Seeing Song Yuntang being so meticulous, Xu Wencheng was very moved. He bowed to Song Yuntang in a serious manner.

"I'm sorry to trouble you, sister-in-law."

Song Yuntang smiled and shook his head.

"Your elder brother is busy with the affairs of the Imperial Academy and has no time to prepare these things. As your sister-in-law, I naturally have to worry about them. If you go to the battlefield in the future, you must protect yourself and come back alive."

Xu Wencheng nodded firmly.

"it is good."

Jiang came forward with red eyes.

"When you have time, write home. Don't try to be brave on the battlefield. Your parents don't care how many military achievements you have made. They just hope you can return safely."

Xu Yongwang glanced at him with a mixture of disdain and reluctance.

"Just have fun, don't think of yourself as a savior. There are so many people in the Great Xia Dynasty, and they don't need a hero like you."

After hearing what Jiang said, Xu Wencheng was almost moved to tears.

As soon as his father said this, he was stunned at first, then he laughed with red eyes.

"Okay, once I've had my fill, I'll come back to be with my parents."

Xu Yuande reminded from the side.

"Go earlier, don't keep people waiting for too long."

"Okay." Xu Wencheng looked at them, "Dad, Mom, Grandma, Sister-in-law, and Hao Ting, I'm leaving."

With Lan Xin's support, Mrs. Hu took a step forward with a worried look on her face.

"Be sure to be careful."

Xu Wencheng nodded, looked deeply at his relatives in front of him again, turned around with red eyes, mounted the horse, kicked the horse's belly, and rode away.

Only when the horse's back disappeared from their sight did they wipe their eyes and return to the yard.

Jiang sighed.

"When Wencheng was around, I always thought he was noisy and naive. Now that he's gone, I feel peaceful and at peace, but I can't bear to let him go."

Xu Yongwang comforted her.

"My daughter-in-law has prepared so many things for him, so he should be fine. The child chose his own path, and we can't tie him up at home and not let him go."

"I know." Jiang said, "Now I just hope he can come back safely."

……

Xu Qingye worked in the Hanlin Academy for a period of time. His knowledge and insights were appreciated by the emperor, who had already paid attention to him. In less than half a year, he was promoted to the sixth rank of Hanlin Academy lecturer and began to get involved in the affairs of the previous dynasty.

Because he was highly regarded by the emperor, the ministers in the court were also polite to him, with an intention of winning him over and currying favor with him.

Unlike the compilers of the Hanlin Academy, the lecturers of the Hanlin Academy had to attend the morning court and arrive at the court location at the beginning of the morning. Taking into account the time wasted on the road, the morning wake-up time was advanced from the beginning of the morning (5 am) to the beginning of the morning (3 am) every day.

After the morning court session, he had to stay in the palace and was responsible for drafting imperial edicts and memorials, compiling classics, serving as the emperor's advisor, participating in the decision-making process of political affairs, and explaining classics.

If necessary, they may also be involved in serving as examiners for the imperial examinations and invigilating and grading the examination papers.

I can't come back until I finish the work in the palace.

Song Yuntang was worried that he would overwork himself and ruin his health, so he carefully prepared various medicinal foods for him.

Although busy, I am still in good spirits.

Jason Lu is still working as an editor in the Hanlin Academy. Since He Shi became familiar with the neighbors, she would make some cloud cakes and sell them to supplement the family income. Whenever she made some, she would cut out a portion and ask Lu Xingyan to send it to Yunshang Lane for Song Yuntang to taste.

Occasionally I would do some needlework and embroidery, and could earn about eight or nine hundred coins a month, so life was still somewhat promising.

As the year draws to a close, the weather is getting colder.

It started snowing in late winter and continued on and off for more than a month. It was wet outside, making it inconvenient to go out and very cold.

The fireplace in the main hall was always burning during the day. Song Yuntang also placed two lounge chairs and a table and chairs in the hall. When he had nothing to do, he would invite a few elders here to drink tea, talk and eat snacks, and even teach them how to play Mahjong.

When Xu Qingye returned home from the Hanlin Academy, he saw several people with more or less notes hanging on their faces, and he couldn't help but smile.

"Playing."

Song Yuntang glanced in his direction, took off the note from his face, walked forward and pulled him to sit in his seat.

"Mingyue Tower in the capital opened today. Manager Miao sent a hot pot home. Please play with Grandma and Daddy for a while while I teach Nanny Wang how to make the sauce."

After saying that, he hurriedly opened the curtain and went to the backyard.

Xu Qingye glanced in her direction.

“I’ve never played…”

Before he could finish his words, Mrs. Hu beside him covered her mouth and laughed.

"Qingye is so smart, he will be able to do it after playing a few rounds. Tang girl has bad luck today, if she plays again, she won't have any place to put it on her face."

After being treated by Song Yuntang for more than a month, Mrs. Hu looked stronger and stronger, and now she can walk without the help of crutches.

Xu Qingye smiled helplessly.

"I see."

No wonder after I forced him to sit down, the soles of his feet felt like they were greased.

After more than two years of marriage, Tang'er has changed a lot and is much more lively and smooth than before.

While they were playing, Song Yuntang and the two maids had already prepared the hot pot.

She looked at the Mahjong table and saw a few more slips of paper on the faces of her grandmother and parents-in-law, but Xu Qingye only had one, and it seemed that he had good luck.

"Let's eat first."

Xu Yongwang, who had the most notes hanging on his face, quickly tore off the notes and stood up.

"No more playing, no more playing, first I need to fill my stomach."

Mrs. Hu smiled and stood up with the help of Mrs. Jiang.

"I think you can't afford to lose."

Xu Yongwang always said stubbornly, "I'm not so bad at losing. Tomorrow we'll continue. I'm going to kill everyone and stick notes all over your faces."

Several people smiled without saying anything, and stood up and sat down at the dining table.

The aroma of hot pot filled the air, extremely tempting.

Seeing that everyone was eager to try, Song Yuntang picked up the serving chopsticks and demonstrated to everyone how to cook hot pot.

"This is a shuangyang hotpot. For lighter flavors, try the clear soup hotpot. For a stronger flavor, try the spicy hotpot. After putting the meat slices in the hotpot, silently count one, two, three in your mind, then you can pick them out and dip them in the sauce. You can adjust the doneness of the vegetables to your taste. The radish needs to be boiled for a longer time, so I asked Nanny Wang to put them in the pot beforehand. It should be ready to eat after a while."

Xu Yongwang followed her example and scalded the meat slices, dipped them in the sauce and put them in his mouth. When he first put it in his mouth, he felt a flame dancing on the tip of his tongue. It was so spicy that he gasped. After his taste buds were completely opened, the fragrance and spiciness intertwined in his mouth, and his appetite was immediately whetted.
