Although Lin Mengya and her husband were a little awkward with each other, how could a couple not have differences in their daily lives?
Generally speaking, the two of them had the same thoughts, and they had a tacit understanding of one another. The ones who were really uncomfortable were the ones who provoked them.
However, the aboriginals hadn't reacted yet. It was close to the New Year, and the spring plowing season was about to begin. Thus, the wandering merchants had ended their year of hard work and returned to their clans.
Through their cooperation with the big chambers of commerce, they had truly experienced the convenience that the chambers of commerce had brought them.
At the same time, they had also transported abundant supplies. At least, most of their clansmen could have a plentiful New Year.
It could be said that this group of people had a broader outlook than the group of frogs at the bottom of a well. However, not everyone could think so far ahead.
Furthermore, they had a better understanding of the Gong family's wealth, so they couldn't help but feel a little envious and jealous.
When they returned to their clans, they heard from their elders that their clans were about to take over the Gong family.
Their jealousy turned into covetousness, and they began to scheme in vain, hoping to get a share of the profits from the Gong family.
They could bear to part with the Gong family's current wealth, but more importantly, the Gong family's trade routes were connected to the entire Wei Nation.
One had to know that gold and silver were inanimate objects that would disappear once they were spent.
However, those trade routes were the real chicken that laid the golden eggs. They were the shortcuts that could allow them to reach the pinnacle of Wei Nation's wealth!
For a moment, many people began to have crooked ideas.
Some of them conspired with their elders, but most of them had their own ideas. They were thinking about how they could use their elders to fight for things while keeping the greatest benefits in their own hands.
However, they subconsciously chose to ignore the thoughts of Lin Mengya, the head of the Gong family.
She was able to open up these trade routes, and the problems she encountered were much greater than the obstacles the aboriginals faced.
Which of those powerful aristocratic families were easy to deal with?
However, all of them had been dealt with by the Gong family. This was enough to prove their ability and strength.
In other words, even if Lin Mengya really handed over the trade routes to them, with their ability, they would probably be swallowed up by those aristocratic families in the blink of an eye. How could they defend them then?
It was just that they had been frogs at the bottom of a well for too long and had forgotten how dangerous it was outside.
Those who could understand these things would naturally retreat and even advise their family elders not to go against Gong Ya. At the very least, they should leave their family's caravan a way out.
Those who were quick-witted would even urge their elders to have a good relationship with Gong Ya and not only covet the benefits in front of them, lest they go for wool and come home shorn.
But most of them would be disappointed.
The thinking of the aboriginals was too backward and old-fashioned.
In their opinion, the aboriginals were still the same powerful tribe from a hundred years ago. From the bottom of their hearts, they looked down on the Gong family that had been expelled. They thought that the Gong family was just a lowly clan that had been abandoned. They should offer their everything to their clansmen in fear and trepidation.
It was even to the extent that they would think that those juniors had been blinded by the filth of the outside world and were dissatisfied, and they would even reprimand them for abandoning themselves to such depravity.
As for the younger generation, they would further experience the backwardness and arrogance of the ancient race, a place that was self-contained and self-contained.
The dissatisfaction that had long taken root in their hearts would gradually grow through this opportunity and slowly change their thinking, paving the way for a major breakthrough in the future.
It could be said that when this group of people appeared in front of Lin Mengya, it was an unexpected surprise given to her by the trade route.
To the Ancient race, this was also the case
This group of people had also left behind a spark for them to continue.
No one could resist the erosion of time, and no one could force the process of history to stop.
Everything that was untimely and hindered the progress of society would eventually be eliminated.
This was the law of nature and the inevitable choice that people made to survive.
Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao were fortunate enough to grasp this opportunity and become the driving force for progress.
Although she was not clear about this point, there would come a day when she would be glad that she had made this choice.
.....
Half a month after Lin Mengya's Little Fubao was born, she was forced to sit on the bed by Aunt Fang for half a month. Finally, she was able to get some time to relax.
Only the heavens knew why all her female elders maintained an unprecedented consensus on the issue of her confinement.
Wash her hair and take a bath? Don't even think about it!
At most, she would sneakily ask Cai Ru and Baisu to help her relax, and the other to help her wipe her body with hot water.
Moreover, when she was caught, she would receive Aunt Fang's caring greetings.
Although she was a little frustrated, she knew that Aunt Fang's every word was for her own good. She still could not explain to Aunt Fang that her body was special and her recovery ability was far superior to that of ordinary people.
Every time this happened, she would grumble in her heart about her unreliable teacher.
If only her teacher was here …
Forget it, her teacher had always been irrational when it came to matters related to her.
She was really afraid that when the time came, her teacher would be in cahoots with Aunt Fang. If that happened, she would really have no chance to turn things around.
However, this half a month was already her limit. No matter what, she had to take a hot bath today.
Early in the morning, Lin Mengya was unusually obedient.
First, she drank the soup that the small kitchen had carefully prepared for her. Then, under Aunt Fang's supervision, she drank a bowl of bitter tonic soup.
She had to drink this medicine. According to Aunt Fang, this was a folk prescription that had been passed down for many years in the aboriginals. It was specially prepared for breast-feeding women.
After drinking it, not only could it increase the output of food, but it could also nourish the body of the pregnant woman. It would also make the newborn baby healthier.
Although she had repeatedly tactfully expressed that there was still enough food at home, Aunt Fang was an experienced person and would always earnestly persuade her that it was not a big deal to have enough food now. The most important thing was that the baby's appetite would continue to grow.
If there was no food supply at that time, what would happen to Little Fubao's mouth?
What else could Lin Mengya say about this?
She could only hold back her tears and drink a big bowl every day to prevent Little Fubao from eating one meal after another.
However, this medicine was indeed beneficial.
In just a short half a month, her edema had completely disappeared. Although the flesh that had grown in the past was still a little loose, she looked a lot more energetic.
She was also very satisfied with this, so she was willing to drink the medicine every day.
Aunt Fang obviously didn't expect this to be a premeditated "operation."
After she satisfactorily looked at Little Fubao and left, Lin Mengya acted like a thief and immediately called Baisu and Cai Ru in.
"Follow the plan!" She was a little impatient.
Cai Ru and Baisu immediately took action.
Originally, for the safety of the three of them, other than Baisu and Cai Ru, only people close to Yunniang and Xiaodie could enter the courtyard.
The others were either closely watched or blocked outside the door.
They were waiting for instructions.
So it was very easy to clear the courtyard.
Cai Ru used the excuse that Madam and Miss needed to take a nap and sent everyone away. Then she personally went to the small kitchen to boil a big pot of hot water.
Baisu was not idle either.
They listened to their master, but in fact, they were more worried about her health. They were afraid that her hands would gradually get cold. So while Cai Ru was boiling the water, Baisu hurriedly closed the door and windows, leaving only a small ventilation window open to let in the air.
Then she filled a few braziers in the room where Lin Mengya was going to take a bath. She even laid a few pebbles in the braziers.
Finally, after Cai Ru brought in the hot water, Baisu picked up the pebbles and was ready to throw them in when the water was a little cold.
It could be said that in order to let her take a bath in peace and health, the two girls had put in a lot of effort.
When Lin Mengya handed her daughter to Cai Ru and ran happily to her big bathtub, she was still shocked by the two girls' attentiveness.
This was not a bath, it was almost like soaking in a hot spring!
Of course, she would not let down the two sisters' good intentions. She took off her clothes and happily soaked in the big bathtub.
"Whew — it feels so good!"
The water rippled and she only felt that all the pores on her body opened up. It was so comfortable that she wanted to cry.
Baisu had been staying by her side to take care of her.
Seeing her master squinting her eyes and sighing like a cat being stroked, Baisu's cold face also showed a little smile.
As a servant of her master, of course she knew how much her master loved cleanliness.
Even though it was winter, it was really hard for her master not to take a thorough bath for half a month.
"Master, let me scrub your back for you?"
Lin Mengya immediately nodded and obediently lay on the edge of the bathtub.
Behind her, Baisu's small hands were wrapped in a towel, gently massaging and scrubbing her.
Generally, it was not recommended for a woman who had just given birth to use a bathtub. But Lin Mengya had almost recovered, and for her health, she had prepared some medicine in advance and turned the bathwater into a medicinal bath.
This was even more comfortable!
She felt that all the feelings of exhaustion and physical exhaustion in the past half a month had disappeared.
Now there was only one word left for her — comfortable!
Surrounded by the warm medicinal water, she gradually became a little sleepy.
Lin Mengya rubbed her eyes and closed her eyes with relief. Anyway, if she really fell asleep later, Baisu and Cai Ru would not let her soak in the cold water.
It was really good and worth installing. After all, she could save books and read them offline!
But because of this, she also relaxed her vigilance and did not feel that someone had changed behind her.
It was just that the hands wrapped in the towel were bigger and stronger, and he took care of the soreness and itchiness all over her body more carefully.
Soon, Lin Mengya began to snore.
The man behind her couldn't help but have a doting smile in his eyes.
After gently scrubbing for a while and making sure that she was clean from head to toe, he carried her out of the bathtub and wrapped her in a thick and soft blanket.
It was very hot in the room. Even though Long Tianhao only wore a close-fitting thin shirt, his forehead was already covered with a layer of sweat.
However, he was willing to serve his wife with malt sweetness.
He took one towel after another and made sure that the person's hair and body were dry. Only then did he loosen the blanket.
In an instant, the breathtaking spring scenery made the temperature in the room rise by several degrees.
