Get pregnant soon, and beauties will have many happy pregnancies

New Year's Eve is here after a busy day.

This year, the people of Lingzhou first experienced natural disasters. Hunger was like a sword hanging over everyone's head, reaping lives anytime and anywhere.

Then the bandits came ashore, burning, killing, looting and committing all kinds of atrocities. The people fled crying, but they could not escape the enemy's butcher knife.

Finally, they survived the water bandits. Lingzhou seemed to be blessed by God. Suddenly, the officials who used to bully them started distributing food. It seemed that the officials above them had changed, but no one cared. They held the fragrant food and their eyes were filled with tears.

Building bridges and roads, constructing ships and ports, even making clothes for the Canglong Army, they can have enough food to eat and even get a little money.

The people finally survived the hardships of the year. On New Year's Eve, there was still surplus food at home, and they could finally have a good year.

Hu Guiping led a small team of people to patrol the village. Nine out of ten houses in Hujia Village were empty, but now some new villagers have moved in. The area around Lianxinggang is becoming more and more lively, and many people come here to settle down.

There was a sliver of smoke from cooking fires, children were laughing and talking, the sound of firecrackers could be heard in the distance, and every household had hung up red lanterns.

Hu Guiping's eyes felt a little hot. He seemed to see his dead relatives and old friends smiling at him in the sky full of fireworks.

With a clang, Hu Guiping struck the gong and drum and said loudly: "The Canglong Army is patrolling. If there are any criminals, they will not be tolerated!"

Someone came to patrol the village every now and then. The villagers were already very familiar with Hu Guiping and came over to talk to him.

"Captain Hu, come over and eat with us. It's New Year's Day, why are you still hanging out outside?"

"Is it going to snow soon? Snow is a good omen for a good year. The crops will grow well next year and the whole family will have enough to eat."

"I heard that the lazy Liu Laoer in the village was arrested a few days ago. He was too lazy to work and had no food to eat, so he ate the grain seeds distributed by the government. I think it smells delicious. I really want to taste it."

"You are asking for your life! Grain seeds are for planting. If you eat them, the government will arrest you and make you into hard labor. Liu Lao Er hasn't come back yet."

"Go away! Do you need to lecture me? Of course I won't eat it. It's not like we don't have food at home. There are many kinds of food, and there are even fist-sized lumps. I don't know how to grow them."

"I heard that these things can be grown in Cangshan. In the spring of next year, there will be some grain-growing officials from Cangshan to teach us. It's really strange. If you can farm, you can become an official. Hahahaha..."

Hu Guiping declined the villagers' cordial invitation and continued walking forward with the gongs and drums. "There are still several villages to inspect. After the inspection, the Canglong Army will also prepare a New Year's Eve dinner for those without families. It will be lively for the brothers to celebrate the New Year together."

A fine snowflake floated from the sky and fell on my shoulders bit by bit, so gently.

Ji Yunhuan was wrapped in a tiger-skin cloak, his entire body sunk in the yellow and black fur. Even the embroidered shoes on his feet were covered. He walked unsteadily and swayed like a chubby duck.

Ji Yunhuan glared at Lin Yuan who was laughing beside him, and said unhappily, "I'm already dressed very warmly, with two layers of fur coat, and you insist on teasing me. You're still laughing? Take this coat away immediately!"

Lin Yuan took the opportunity to pick up Huan'er. There were cheers all around, and everyone was laughing and making a lot of noise.

Finally we arrived at the dining hall. Several huge torches lit up the inside brightly. The doors on all sides were wide open. A group of men were not afraid of the cold and were eating enthusiastically while enjoying the snow outside.

Lin Yuan put Ji Yunhuan down, picked up the wine glass, faced everyone, and said loudly: "This first cup is for the brothers who are buried in Misty Ridge! Lianxing Port has just been built, and I can't go back to the mountain village to drink with my brothers. It's a pity!"

Wu Kai and others had tears in their eyes. They came from Cangshan, and no matter when, that place was their home.

Lin Yuan stood at the gate and slowly poured out the wine in his hand. Suddenly, a strong wind blew, spreading the aroma of wine all over the air.

"This second cup is for the brothers who have shared life and death with me! No matter where you come from, once you join the Canglong Army, you are one of us. Millions of people in Lingzhou are behind us. From now on, no matter how the years change, we will never let the enemy set foot in Lingzhou!"

Everyone drank the wine in their glasses, and everyone had a drunken blush on their face. Some sang country songs, some banged bowls, some made fists, some were crying, and some were laughing.

Ji Yunhuan leaned back in her chair, gently touching her belly. It was a little inconvenient as the pregnancy was advanced, but she still wanted to get together with everyone on New Year's Eve.

She remembered that moonlit night when the Cangshan Mountain was just as bustling. In less than half a year, many people were gone.

Lin Yuan came over with a wine glass, and his tall shadow enveloped Ji Yunhuan.

"This third cup is for my Huan'er! Next year, wild flowers will bloom all over the wilderness, grain will fill the granaries, huge warships will set sail from Lianxing Port, and the Canglong flag will be hung on merchant ships. The navy will shock the world, and Lingzhou will be as prosperous and wealthy as Luojing."

"Huan'er, we will definitely do it."

Ji Yunhuan picked up the wine glass, and Lin Yuan raised his glass to touch it. The two smiled at each other and drank the glass to the bottom.

Ji Yunhuan tasted a sour and sweet taste. The wine in her glass was not wine at all. She didn't know what kind of fruit it was squeezed from, but it tasted quite good.

"You can't drink alcohol during pregnancy. Doctor Cao said you'll give birth next month. You should be careful and don't overwork yourself. Let Xiangyu do something. I see she's been hanging around Jin Yuanchen all day and has nothing to do!"

Hong Xiangyu came over with a jar of wine, reached out and hit Lin Yuan, cursing, "I came all the way here to bring you weapons, how can I be idle? Jin Yuanchen is going to go out to sea soon, I asked him to bring me some more rare things to study, we are talking about business! Very serious!"

Ji Yun smiled but said nothing. Hong Xiangyu looked very guilty while trying to explain.

Jin Yuanchen was born with a baby face and chubby cheeks. He seemed honest, but he was actually very shrewd. He could use an abacus as early as he learned to use chopsticks. Now most of the Jin family's industries have been handed over to him, and he also accounts for the majority of the overseas trade.

Jin Yuanchen always won the finger-guessing game and didn't drink much at all. He reached out and pulled Hong Xiangyu over, "Xiangyu, you ran away after losing. Are you trying to shirk your debt? It's no use asking Gang Leader Lin for help. Come here and continue drinking."

Hong Xiangyu turned around, tilted her head back and took a sip of wine, then followed Jin Yuanchen foolishly.

Lin Yuan was a little worried. "Xiangyu is so stupid, and Jin Yuanchen is just a smiling fox with a lot of bad intentions! If Xiangyu is sold one day, she will have to help count the money."

Ji Yun laughed out loud, "Didn't you say you wanted to marry Xiangyu to Jin Yuanchen in the beginning? Now they're together on their own, why are you unhappy now?"

Lin Yuan was in a complicated mood. Thinking about his sister getting married, he was filled with worries and even disliked Jin Yuanchen!

On New Year's Eve, everyone was having fun all night long before they finally calmed down.

At the beginning of the new year, on the third day of the New Year, Jin Yuanchen bid farewell to Hong Xiangyu, boarded a merchant ship with a large amount of goods, bypassed the Bru Island, and prepared to go to new waters.

Three days later, the bad news came. The Bru people got the caravan's route from somewhere and ambushed the Lingzhou merchant ships in the Bi Bo Strait. A large number of merchant ships sank, and the accompanying navy was almost killed or injured. The goods were robbed, the merchants were captured, and Jin Yuanchen's whereabouts were unknown, and it was unknown whether he was alive or dead.
