Rebirth of the Ming Dynasty: Sixth Generation of Glory, I don't want it

Ming Dynasty, the 30th year of Hongwu, November.

"Mom, why are you starting construction at this time? It's freezing cold."

"Did you disturb our good grandson?"

Xu didn't answer, but instead teased her eldest grandson who was wrapped tightly.

"He slept so soundly that he was not woken up even by the beating of gongs and drums."

Zhang Xin smiled.

"Isn't this you who's feeding me?"

Xu asked again.

"It's been six months. My mother said it's ok. I had it cut off two days ago."

"Are you used to it?"

"That's good. Xiaopang is not picky about food."

"Okay, put the little fat pig inside, and let's go out for a walk."

Ever since Zhang Xin let slip the nickname to Xu, the nickname Zhu Xiaopang has taken root in Prince Yan's Mansion.

Xu also gave it countless names, the most popular of which is "little fat pig".

Xu said that it is usually better to call a child by a vulgar or rustic name so that the child will be easier to raise.

"Okay, mother."

The group of people were still walking, not riding in sedan chairs. Zhang Xin stepped forward, took Xu's arm, and slowly walked around the Prince of Yan's Mansion.

There was a light snow the day before.

The maids swept the aisle so clean that there was almost no trace of snow.

Only the branches of the trees were still covered with remnant snow, which looked even whiter against the black background.

The days after snow are especially crisp and cold.

Zhang Xin exhaled, and the white mist floated in the air for a while before dissipating.

"We originally wanted to repair those dilapidated and old houses, but Monk Daoyan said that there might be famine next year or the year after, so we need to prepare more food. So we started the work now."

Xu glared at Zhang Xin, stopping her from breathing out with her mouth open, and then pointed to an old palace in the distance that was fenced off and could not be seen from inside.

"Digging a cellar?"

Zhang Xin understood.

Thanks to her intervention, the digging of the cellar and the making of weapons was brought forward, which is worth making clear.

Calculating the time, there is only half a year left before the death of my royal grandfather.

"Yes, before it freezes solid."

Xu nodded.

"The sea water won't freeze, and I don't know if it's cold out on the sea. I don't know if my second brother can eat and sleep well."

Zhang Xin spread out.

Everything was done quickly on the Ning Wang's side. At the end of October, Zhu Gaoxu dressed up as a steward and followed Zhang Xin's caravan to meet the Ning Wang's men.

Zhang Xin was not sure where the ship left from, but she knew it was heading south.

The approximate time of return is March next year.

Zhang Xin heard from Ma Sanbao later that life at sea was actually quite difficult.

But Xu remained calm the whole time, and Zhang Xin admired her very much!

"It's not cold, it gets hotter as it gets closer to Vietnam. It's time to go out and see the world. Dad loves his children and grandchildren too much. You should visit Wei more often when you have time."

In fact, Xu was more inclined to let Zhu Gaosui go.

This child who grew up in honey water needs to see the sufferings of the world.

But Zhu Di was afraid that Zhu Gaosui would not be able to adapt.

In the end, Zhu Gaoxu went.

As soon as Zhu Gaoxu left, Wei fell ill.

"Oh well."

Zhang Xin simply agreed.

Wei is very similar to her in her previous life, a woman in the backyard, honest and dutiful. Zhang Xin understands her feelings at this moment.

By the way, Zhang Xin also understood how her mother-in-law felt about her in her previous life.

You have to figure it out yourself. If you can't, it's no use for others to persuade you.

"Women in this world have trapped themselves more and more in the past few years."

Xu let out a long sigh.

"There's nothing we can do about it."

"Your family is very good. They didn't teach you to be like a ball of cotton. You dare to think and dare to do."

"Among thousands and millions of people, there are always some like me, and so is my mother."

"Let's go back. There are people working here at night. Tell the people from each palace not to come out unless necessary."

"Yes, mother."

"Before the New Year, you will receive the women who come to give gifts. I will take this opportunity to be lazy. There is also a list of festival gifts and tourmaline. When you go back, you can give them to the Crown Prince's Consort. Let the Crown Prince's Consort take care of it this year."

"Ah, am I the only one here?"

"Then you want a few more people? When Wei gets better, you can take her with you."

"Mom, please take care of me. Don't let go of me like this."

"No, I'm lazy. The daughter-in-law here is married to make her mother-in-law lazy."

"...Isn't it a bit too direct for Mom to say this?"

"Oh. I'll be more tactful next time. For example, more work for those who are more capable?"

"Ha ha ha ha--"
