Xia Xian heard Gao Qin say that the general had woken up and brought over the prepared golden bird's nest porridge. When Xia Xian saw Bai Shinian's injured hand, she wanted to feed Bai Shinian. But Bai Shinian refused.
Bai Shinian thought he was injured in one hand, not both hands. Not to mention that he could do it now, if he couldn't do it, he wouldn't want Xia Xian to feed him. Bai Shinian insisted not to let women other than Wen Wan touch him.
Bai Shinian took the bowl and ate it slowly. But it tastes really good. After finishing a bowl, Bai Shinian couldn't help but admire in his heart, finally eating delicious food again: "How much did you bring this time?"
Xia Xian said: "Not much, there are only four baskets of supplements. The other eighteen baskets are all medicinal materials. Give out two big bags of medicinal materials. But these baskets are enough for the general to eat for two or three months. I believe the princess will also send them later. I'll send you some supplements, so don't worry, the general's top priority now is to take good care of yourself. Then the princess doesn't have to worry. "The supplementary medicinal materials can be bought in the border town." If that doesn't work, go somewhere further away to buy it. I'm just afraid that I can't buy it even if I have money.
Bai Shinian was speechless and spoke as if he was a foodie. After Bai Shinian finished eating, he gave the bowl to Xia Xian. His face looked hesitant.
Xia Xian thought Bai Shinian wanted her to contribute the supplements as well. He hurriedly said: "General, these supplements cannot be let out at all."
Bai Shinian nodded. He took out the medicinal materials as soon as he took them out, but he would not tell others about the supplements. Not to mention that he wanted to recover soon, he knew very well that it would be useless even if he spoke. Xia Xian was so generous with the medicinal materials because he probably didn't need them. Why can't I use supplements? He is now weak and needs to replenish his health.
Bai Shinian really understands Xia Xian's thoughts. The medicinal materials and supplements that Wen Wanrang collected this time were mainly focused on nourishing the body, replenishing qi and blood. Just right for the current Bai Shinian.
Xia Xian held up the empty bowl and said, "General, I want you to go back to the general's mansion. It's too shabby here, and it's inconvenient for me to stay here for too long." This time, she was allowed in because of special circumstances. Xia Xian also knew the military rules and couldn't stay too long. Xia Xian doesn't like it here either. There was nothing and the flavor was very strong.
Bai Shinian agreed without thinking. Women were not allowed in the military camp. Even if Xia Ying and Xia Xian are strong women, it won't work.
Xia Xian came to the gate of the General's Mansion in the border town. The gate was a heavy wooden door with many openings. The plaque on the door reads: "Yingwu General's Mansion." The plaque is also made of heavy wood.
When we entered the general's residence, we found that the so-called general's residence was not big. It's just a five-entry yard. It was very quiet in the general's mansion. Xia Xian walked all the way over. Look at the layer of leaves falling on the ground. That brow is furrowed. Where is the place where people live here? If you don¡¯t know, you might think it¡¯s a house that has been vacant for many years!
Xia Xian entered Bai Shinian's bedroom. His face looked even uglier. Then I saw spiders crawling on the rafters. Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore and reprimanded him: "Are all the people in this mansion working for a living? Can't they even clean the house? I'll have to replace them all tomorrow."
Bai Shinian hasn¡¯t lived here for a long time. Even if he comes back on weekdays, he stays in the study: "Don't worry about getting angry. I rarely go back to the mansion, and even when I come back, I'm just in the front yard. There are only three or four servants in this mansion, and they may not be busy. Go first Study. Let them clean it up." There are also a few disabled veterans who have retired and have nowhere to go. There is also a couple. Cook for the gatekeepers.
Xia Xian exhaled a breath. Immediately ordered the more than 100 soldiers who followed back to carry out general cleaning. Xia Xian didn't do anything herself. Always directing everyone to do it. None of the soldiers dared to listen to her. They were not obedient. It was really Xia Xian's cold face that was so charming.
With more people comes greater strength, and Xia Xian is responsible for supervising the work. Looking at the busy and chaotic yard, he shook his head: "If the princess were here, she would definitely say that this is a pig's nest." Although Wen Wan is not extravagant. But very particular. He is also very tidy. Everyone around her was trained by her.
After most of the day, Xia Xian was barely satisfied. People who went out to buy things also came back. Xia Xian asked Gao Qin to lead the general to his bedroom. Sleep in the study. Where can I find a bedroom in the study room?
Gao Shan has already gone out to purchase with the list he made. Xia Xian made a long list, all of which were things Bai Shinian needed to take care of his body.
But now, Xia Xian made a long list and asked the housekeeper to buy it. Xia Xian was very depressed. There really wasn't anything he wanted here. I really don't know how this general managed to get away with it.
After working hard for most of the day, Bai Shinian didn't return to the house until late in the evening. He saw a round table in the middle of the room, a kang next to it, and a desk near the window. There was a white porcelain bottle on the table. There was actually something in the bottle. I also inserted a small handful of wild flowers. The bedding was changed from dark color to autumn color.
The house is still the same house, and the furnishings of the house have not changed. There aren't many changes, but looking at it makes me feel particularly relaxed.
When Bai Shinian saw the decoration here, especially the flowers in the house, he remembered Wen Wan's habit. Wen Wan especially liked to put flowers in the house, and she would change them with fresh ones every day. Back then, he often picked plum blossoms for Wenwan. Wen Wan said that bright colors in the house represent unlimited vitality.
Xia Ying saw Bai Shinian looking straight at the vase of flowers on the table, and said with a smile: "General, the princess likes flowers. The eldest young master and the young master also like flowers very much."
Bai Shinian's eyes lit up after hearing this: "Do Mingrui and Mingjin also like flowers? I don't know that." It's not that Wen Wan hasn't mentioned it before, it's mentioned in Wen Wan's letters. The reason why Bai Shinian couldn't explain clearly was because he hoped Xia Xian could tell more about Wen Wan and her children. Otherwise, I know what he said. How to get people to answer the call.
Xia Xian burst into laughter, "That's not all! Master Jin also learned from the princess that she likes to eat flowers. Whenever there are flowers in her hand, she stuffs them into her mouth. General, I don't know if you know that the princess likes to eat flowers." Wen Wen This characteristic of Wan is known to several maids around Wen Wan. As for Bai Shinian, her husband, Xia Xian didn't know whether he knew or not.
Bai Shinian didn¡¯t know Wen Wan had this habit. Because the two of them got along in winter, and there were flowers in the house in winter, but they were flowers grown in a greenhouse, and Wen Wan didn't eat them. So Bai Shinian was not lucky enough to see Wenwan eating flowers.
Reading letters is never as precise as anyone says. Xia Xian talked for a while and heard that Xia Ying was back. Xia Xian estimated that Xia Ying went out to meet someone. Now that the connection is over, I'm back. Xia Xian stood up: "Xia Ying has always been with the princess and the eldest and young masters. She knows more than me. I will cook for the general."
Xia Xian went out to cook, and Xia Ying accompanied Bai Shinian, telling him what Bai Shinian wanted to know. It starts with Bai Shinian leaving Wenwan and Wenwan confirming her pregnancy.
Xia Ying will not report good news but not bad news like Wen Wan. Of course, because Bai Shinian was injured, he wouldn't say anything bad. For example, if rumors slander Wen Wan and who she is is not clear, Xia Ying will not talk about it. But Wenwan suffers from pregnancy. Xia Ying focused on how difficult it was for Bai Shinian to know the princess. It was said that Wenwan could not eat anything when she was pregnant, but later she ate sauerkraut. But because of this, the princess was worried that the two children would suffer hardship in the future, and she cried day and night with worry. However, Xia Ying did not realize the emperor's promise to Wen Wan.
Bai Shinian was stunned for a moment: "I don't know any of this!" Because eating sauerkraut, he was worried that his children would suffer hardship in the future. Wen Wan never mentioned it to him in the letter. It is said that pregnant women are particularly sensitive and fragile. How fragile the gentleness must have been at that time.
Xia Ying smiled calmly: "The princess always reported good news to the general but not bad news. How could she tell such bad things!" The princess suffered so much when she was pregnant, but she never told Bai Shinian. I'm just afraid that Bai Shinian will know and worry. She is not afraid of Bai Shinian worrying. The more worried she is, the better. Anyway, Bai Shinian will not go to the battlefield in person in the future.
Bai Shinian was silent. In the past two years, Wen Wan really hasn't said anything bad to him. The most I can do is complain about how hard it is to take care of two children. But this complaint is described with a happy tone. Every time he receives a letter from home, he is in the best mood.
Xia Ying talked about pregnancy and talked about the thrill of Wen Wan¡¯s difficult delivery. Talking about Wen Wan's life hanging by a thread, the imperial doctor said that he could only protect the child or the adult. The emperor said to protect the adult, but the princess asked to protect the child.
When Bai Shinian heard this, his face turned pale. He didn't know any of this, he only knew that Wen Wan had difficulty giving birth, and then Wen Wan muttered to the pomegranate tree, and then the mother and child were safe. Because the housekeeper doesn¡¯t know the specifics. Wen Wan didn¡¯t say anything either. What Bai Shinian knew was far less shocking than what Xia Ying said.
Xia Ying felt that this was not enough, and said that Wen Wan would rather risk death to protect the child. He asked them to help him and walked around the yard: "General, the princess has never told you about the suffering and pain she has suffered, so as not to worry you. But there is not a day that goes by that the princess doesn't worry about the general's handkerchief. This time, the princess The Lord fainted when he heard that the general was unconscious and in danger. I hope the general will take good care of himself and stop worrying the princess. "
Bai Shinian's face turned pale. He really didn't know that Wen Wan's delivery was so dangerous. It got to the point where it was better to protect the adults than the children. He really almost became a loner. Just a little bit close. Fortunately, God had mercy on him.
?? But Bai Shinian had no appetite. Xia Xian knew that Bai Shinian was in a bad mood as soon as she saw Bai Shinian's face: "General, the princess hopes that the general will recover soon. When the general is well, the princess can eat well and sleep well in the capital. Otherwise, she will worry every day. Iron Man will not be able to bear it. . Don¡¯t worry the princess anymore.¡±
Bai Shinian quickly cleaned the food. After finishing the meal, he asked, "Who will cook for Wen Wan when you leave?" If Wen Wan is such a picky person, what will happen if it doesn't suit his taste?
Xia Xian saw Bai Shinian's expression: "General, don't worry. In the past, I wasn't the only one who took care of the princess's food. There was also a nanny. When I wasn't around, the nanny also knew the princess's eating habits very well. And the nanny His craftsmanship is better than mine.¡±
Only then did Bai Shinian look relieved. It would be nice to have someone who is skilled in craftsmanship. (To be continued)
