Become a winner in life after binding the childbearing system

"Ayan, my sister-in-law has been ill for a while."

When the two of them were together in private, Shen Yao asked again about Luo Jing's affairs. Without Madam Liu by their side, they spoke even more recklessly.

Liu Jingyan hummed, looking unconcerned, "Big brother said that Big sister-in-law has always had some weak health. This year, the whole territory of Weiguo is cold, and there is heavy snow in Luojing. From what Big brother said, Big sister-in-law needs to be taken good care of."

This is a common problem among wealthy families. Ordinary women in Luojing City all have a more or less fragile temperament, unless they specifically learn martial arts.

But traditionally, learning martial arts well requires enduring hardships, and the men in the family need to be upright and self-reliant, while most women cannot reach this level.

Liu Jingsheng's wife is a princess. She grew up in luxury. It is normal for her body to not be able to bear the cold winter weather.

Liu Jingyan's whispered explanation not only failed to dispel Shen Yao's doubts, but instead made Shen Yao suspicious.

"She's sick at this time, maybe her condition isn't as simple as it seems."

Shen Yao raised her eyebrows, picked up the handkerchief embroidered with flowers and turned it around, "Although the women of the royal family may be a little weak, the imperial doctors in the palace are not for show. Ah Yan, there has been no clear news for several months since my grandfather went to war, which indirectly shows that the result of the emperor's personal expedition is not optimistic."

Luojing is the capital of Wei State and the royal back garden. Now that the master is going against the odds in the war, won't Luojing be in chaos?

Shen Yao thought of the princes who were fighting each other to the point of black eyes, and felt that they would not be able to coexist peacefully. If they had the chance, they would want to kill each other directly.

Liu Jingyan looked at Shen Yao with an uncertain expression, "Are you saying that my sister-in-law's illness may be related to my brother?"

The one who can directly attack the eldest sister-in-law, currently only the eldest brother is left in the entire Luojing Liu family. As for the few half-brothers who stayed in Luojing, since Liu's father is not in Luojing, they are not even a hair.

Shen Yao did not deny her guess. It was just a coincidence that her sister-in-law was ill. Besides, it was impossible for Liu Jingsheng to write these words clearly in the letter.

"Whether it's related or not, we can't go wrong if we think about it more."

It is better to think more than less. Now is the time. If we are not careful, there will be a civil war.

Liu Jingyan: ...

Liu Jingyan was convinced by Shen Yao's few words. He reached out and pinched his chin. He suddenly felt that the progress of the farm outside the city was a bit too slow. It would be better to hire more people to speed up.

Shen Yao looked at Liu Jingyan, who ran away in a hurry in the middle of a conversation, and sighed helplessly.

They only have a vague understanding of Luojing's affairs, and the progress on the front line is also intermittent. Tsk, tsk, tsk, it is obvious that she is not the protagonist but just a passerby. Could it be that she is a cannon fodder in the same period as the protagonist? The protagonist is not rising from the grassroots but fighting for power? I can't figure it out.

"Master, I sent someone to investigate, and there are no people like those you mentioned in Yingchuan."

One morning, Qingshui stood beside Shen Yao with an embarrassed look on his face and reported.

The master has been paying close attention to the situation in the city these days, especially some young talents and promising people.

However, those with a little talent in Yingchuan all come from wealthy families, while ordinary people are busy with their daily livelihoods.

"The martial arts school does recruit some common people, but they all signed a contract with the owner of the school to sell themselves to the school. After they finish their training, they will work hard for the school."

There is no one who can successfully leave the martial arts school. The few who can succeed are just ordinary martial artists in the martial arts school. They enjoy the school's support on a daily basis, and they cannot hide away when they are needed to work hard.

Qingshui didn't understand why her master wanted to know these things, but she still ran around obediently for a few days, making sure that she didn't miss any information before stopping temporarily.

"If that's the case, then forget it. In the future, just find out some new things and don't put too much energy into other things."

Shen Yao smacked her lips inwardly and thought that the contents of novels really could not be fully trusted.

Perhaps it is the grassroots rise of other cities, but there is no sign of it in Yingchuan.

After all, the gap between the rich and the poor was huge in ancient times, and the cost of martial arts schools was not affordable for ordinary people. If you want to learn some skills to gain a foothold in this era, most people have some family background.

As for what Shen Yao asked Qingshui to investigate, it was not useless. At least it once again confirmed how difficult it is for people at the bottom of society to cross the class barrier.

"Qingshui, young master is still busy with the affairs of the manor recently?" Shen Yao pondered, it must have been a while.

Qingshui nodded. Liu Jingyan went out and came back at a fixed time every day, and many things from the ancestral home in Yingchuan were also sent to the farm in the suburbs.

"I heard from the servants that the manor is repairing the outer wall."

Liu Jingyan wanted to turn Zhuangzi into a black fortress and surround the place where he lived. Even if there were enemies attacking, they could rely on the black fortress to defend and counterattack.

Recently, all the people in Yingchuan have known that a village outside the city is recruiting workers.

Because the wages offered by the Liu family were not low, many families sent men, women, old and young to join in the fight, and even the bailiffs from the government office had to help maintain order.

Of course, the Liu family has made such a big fuss that they spend countless amounts of money every day.

As the current accountant of the Liu family, Shen Yao has truly experienced what it means to spend money like water, and once she raised her hands, she simply couldn't put them down.

After waving his hand to let Qingshui leave, Shen Yao walked around the courtyard in front of him twice.

She has been disliking the cold weather lately and doesn't like going out, which makes her feel a little tired.

Walking around, shaking her arms and lifting her legs, Shen Yao wondered whether she should go to the farm.

Liu Jingyan had been busy running around for several months, but the number of times he had been there could be counted on one hand.

What's more, Liu Jingyan agreed to build the yard according to her preferences, and Shen Yao also wanted to give some on-site guidance, and if it was not suitable, she could make changes at any time.

"But it's a bit chaotic outside, and we may not be able to get back in time if we encounter sandstorms. Mingxuan and Mingfei are almost one year old, can you bear to leave them at home?"

Liu Jingyan's first reaction was to refuse. He could endure the hardship himself, but why let his wife suffer? No.

Shen Yao snorted, "If I don't go over there, how can I know the progress of Zhuangzi?

Ayan, mother is always at home, Mingxuan and Mingfei are accompanied by a nanny and servants. "

She is not a porcelain doll that will break if touched. Why does she have to tie her mother to her side?

In addition, Mingxuan and Mingfei have been carefully cared for by Shen Yao since they were young. They have taken countless health-preserving pills and are much healthier than ordinary people.

She pulled Liu Jingyan's clothes and acted coquettishly, and Liu Jingyan had no choice but to raise his hands in surrender.

"Okay, let's go out of the city together tomorrow morning." It's just going to the farm, it's not difficult at all.

Shen Yao smiled as beautifully as a flower, "Ayan," it would have been better if you had said this earlier.

Liu Jingyan: ...

The next morning, the two had breakfast, sent the child to Madam Liu, and then took the carriage outside the door to leave the city.

Because the selected village was located in the west of the city, they had to go around a circle and a half after leaving the city.

About half an hour later, Shen Yao saw a manor house with a rudimentary shape through the blown curtains.

It was dark and gloomy, and the city wall built outside was taller and thicker than expected.

The group's carriage did not stop. After passing through the city wall, they continued forward until they heard the entrance to an exquisite and luxurious house in the center.

Holding Liu Jingyan's hand, Shen Yao came out and raised her head to take a look at the surrounding situation.

It can be seen that everyone is busy with the construction. The tribesmen they brought back are also not idle, running around here carrying out errands.

"Go in and take a look. When the weather warms up in spring, we'll move in."

Liu Jingyan took Shen Yao into the house, where there were still some unfinished parts and rubble scattered on the ground that had not been cleaned up in time.

Walking through the corridor and the aisle, Shen Yao let go and touched and touched herself.

Liu Jingyan had things to do, including purchasing and all kinds of construction supplies, which all required his approval before they could be brought in from outside.

Shen Yao achieved her purpose and very considerately let Liu Jingyan leave.

"master"

"Come with me to the backyard," This is where she will live in the future, so it needs to be decorated well.

The arrangement that Shen Yao was talking about was not the appearance or accessories, but the means to defend against strange monsters.

She could still fight with her hands against the monsters, but she had to rely on the treasures she had saved up earlier to deal with the anti-human creatures like the strange goblins.

Without Liu Jingyan following her all the time, Shen Yao would be able to do things more conveniently. She sent Qingshui to guard the door first, and Shen Yao stayed in the room alone.

The empty room with only a few screens hanging on it was not something to look at.

Shen Yao had learned the art of fortune-telling before, but it was only a half-baked skill. The geographical location of this farm was good, and it was suitable for survival as it was surrounded by mountains and rivers.

Shen Yao could only vaguely see the word "lucky", and was powerless to do anything else.

What she is doing now is to add an extra layer of luck on the basis of the word "ji". You know, weird monsters hate this kind of thing and will basically stay away from it when they meet it.

Shen Yao searched around in the space and took out a roll of white and soft canvas.

There is nothing on the canvas, but it can make people calm.

This can also be considered a Buddhist treasure, but Shen Yao couldn't quite remember where it came from.

After all, she has so many treasures that you can benefit greatly from just picking any of them.

He took out a piece of talisman paper and pasted it on the canvas so that it blended into the screen in front of him. The screen still looked the same as before, but the inside had undergone earth-shaking changes.

However, the area covered by the canvas is not large, only about a hundred meters around the courtyard, which is just enough for their family to live in.

Shen Yao does have more useful treasures in her hands, but the range of a hundred meters is not small. Besides, this scroll of canvas is something that improves luck and will not produce any substantial attack.

Shen Yao was ultimately a little selfish. Many people would live in this house in the future, and she didn't want her treasure to be given to others. As long as her family members didn't suffer any loss, the rest would depend on fate.

Those who were assigned to live with them were naturally lucky, and those who were not assigned to live with them could not blame Shen Yao. After all, the good things should be kept in the family, so they were not given away.

"Qingshui, let's go to the front yard."

After finishing the work at hand, Shen Yao rushed to inspect other places.

Especially the hot spring pool that I have been longing for. The foundation has been dug and the stone slabs have been laid. It is ready for use only by bringing in spring water from the mountains.

Unfortunately, it was still cold that day. Although the outdoor hot springs were nice, it would freeze your body, which seemed not worth it.

Shen Yao could only bid farewell to the hot spring pool with regret and reluctantly got on the carriage back to the city.

Liu Jingyan felt sorry for his wife, and promised that when he had time, he would build a residential house next to the hot spring pool. They would then live next to it and soak in the hot spring whenever they wanted.

Anyway, the manor is a big place, and other clansmen have also been allocated land. As long as they don’t intend to compete with the Liu family, they can come and live in the manor.

After this one visit, Shen Yao never left the ancestral home again until spring came and the flowers bloomed.

The main reason is that there were not many places to visit in ancient times. Yingchuan City was occasionally quite lively, and you could visit temple fairs and watch fireworks during festivals.

When they went to the farm outside the city, there was smoke and dust everywhere, and there were so many people that Shen Yao immediately lost interest.

Shen Yao spends every day at the ancestral home listening to gossip and looking at the garden scenery, chatting with the two children and Mrs. Liu, and communicating with Liu Jingyan in the evening. Her life is quite fulfilling.

Until the battle report came from the front, the human race was damaged, several seventh-level strongmen were injured, riots broke out in Luojing City, princes were stabbed to death, civil unrest broke out in Weiguo, and chaos occurred everywhere around.

Mrs. Liu held Liu Jingyan's hand and asked about Liu Jingsheng's condition.

Liu Jingyan could only use the excuse that everything was fine to fool the anxious Madam Liu. In fact, they had lost contact with Luo Jing and did not know the latest situation of the Liu Mansion.

"When my grandfather passed away, he would definitely explain to my eldest brother," as long as Liu Jingsheng was not stupid, he would have a way to retreat.

Losing contact at this time is not entirely a bad thing. Perhaps the retreat was in a hurry and there was no time to send the letter.

Liu Jingyan grabbed Shen Yao's wrist and said, "I'm not only worried about my elder brother, but also my grandfather." The front line is more dangerous than the rear. If a seventh-level strongman is injured, how can the lower-level people survive? The emperor will not really die on the battlefield.

Liu Jingyan didn't care whether the emperor died or not, but his grandfather was also on the front line.

Once the emperor is gone, my grandfather will basically not be able to escape, but there is an eighth-level strongman beside the emperor who should be able to protect the emperor.

Liu Jingyan was unsure for a moment, and his mind was in a mess with all kinds of information coming in from outside.

I don’t know whether it is true or not, I can only judge based on my own experience.

Shen Yao:......

Shen Yao glared at Liu Jingyan in annoyance, "We are in Yingchuan. We are willing but unable to deal with what happened in Luojing. Let's stabilize the situation first."

Yingchuan cannot be in chaos. This is their base camp. Only by taking full control of this place can Liu Jingyan help outside.

Liu Jingyan: ...

Liu Jingyan felt that he couldn't do it. He was just a third-level rookie. Compared with ordinary people, he could do well, but if compared with some hidden old monsters in Yingchuan, he would be a pushover.

The reason why Yingchuan can regard the Liu family as the most respected is because of the existence of Liu Xiuwen.

A seventh-level strong man can crush anyone below his level with just a stretch of his hand.

Now that Liu Xiuwen is not in Yingchuan, Liu Jingyan is like a fox taking advantage of the power of another, so naturally he won't feel very confident.

Shen Yao continued to encourage Liu Jingyan, "Grandfather and eldest brother will be fine. We just need to stabilize the situation in Yingchuan and wait for the family to reunite."

Shen Yao's belief was firm, and Liu Jingyan was somewhat moved by what she said. Liu Jingyan didn't know where Shen Yao got her confidence from, but it didn't stop him from choosing to believe.

Yes, my eldest brother is the son of the Liu family, he is smart and intelligent and considerate of the overall situation. My grandfather has always been wise and has kept the Liu family rich for many years. How could anything happen to the two of them? They will definitely be safe.
