Chapter 217 North and South Continents
When Han Xin returned to the base, he received two orders from Fusu. One was to let him continue the Western Expedition while he had remaining strength and to proceed slowly. The other was that the Xianyang airport had been completed and craftsmen would be sent over to help them build the airport and promote the development of transportation.
Han Xin thought it was a good idea, as this way there would be more people in Xinjiang in the future.
Another person who received the news about building an airport was Yingsha, who was far away in Beizhou. He was so busy with land reclamation that he had no time to spare, so he had to find time to build the airport.
"Husband, you seem to be troubled by something?"
Haldo asked him with her slightly bulging belly, and Yingsha quickly helped her sit down.
"Why are you here? Didn't you say you wanted to stay at home and take good care of your baby?"
"It's been four months. The doctor said the baby is stable now. Walking more is good for your health."
Haldo stroked her belly. She was looking forward to the arrival of the baby. Yingsha squatted down and stroked her gently.
"Okay, then, have two people follow you. Don't go alone. There are many wild wolves and wild men here."
"Well, I know you seemed distressed just now. Can you tell me about it?"
Haldor didn't like the way he frowned, he wished he could be happier.
"Your Majesty asked us to build an airport, but we don't have enough manpower. Your Majesty gave us 100,000 people, but it's already a bit difficult just to cultivate the land and guard it."
"If we don't have enough people, we can ask His Majesty for more. What's the difficulty?"
Haldo thought it was a difficult task, but it turned out to be just this?
Ying Sha slapped his forehead.
"That's right! There are still quite a few people at these stations. It wouldn't be a big deal if we sent some of them over, right? Or we can ask His Majesty to send some more people. Madam is right."
"Haha... I heard that pregnancy makes one stupid for three years. Looks like you are the stupid one."
Haldo held her waist and laughed, and Yingsha was not angry. It was worth it to make her happy. Haldo laughed happily, and the fetus in her belly kicked her at this time.
"what!"
The scream made Ying Sha panic.
"What's wrong? Madam, are you feeling unwell?"
After Haldo gradually adapted to the situation, he started to smile, while Yingsha was completely confused and bewildered.
"Husband, the child just kicked me."
Then she took Yingsha's hand and touched her belly. The child was very considerate and kicked Yingsha's palm.
Ying Sha was completely stunned. The feeling was extremely wonderful. The touch slowly spread to his heart, making Ying Sha's eyes slowly turn red.
"This... is a child, greeting me?"
"Well, the doctor said there will be movement in the fourth month. It's so early, it looks like an active baby."
Haldo's eyes also turned red unconsciously. She was also a mother, and all kinds of emotions mixed together for a moment, causing her voice to be choked.
"We will be able to see him in a few months. He will definitely be the most beautiful child."
Yingsha listened attentively to Haldo's stomach and smiled foolishly, while Haldo put her hand on his head.
"I like it no matter what, it's our baby."
Appearance is not important, he is happy that he has a child.
"No, you must have someone serve you well. Just wait, I will arrange it right away. Also, let your mother come over to accompany you."
The entire Harduo tribe followed him to Beizhou and were now grazing in a distant place. Yingsha rode directly on horseback to find them.
Haldo watched him busy with his work with a smile. In fact, he was too nervous. His mother had already told him that as long as he didn't eat indiscriminately, didn't fall down, and took good care of his body, he would be fine.
"The prince really loves the princess."
Granny Sang came over with some pregnancy-maintaining medicine, but it was not convenient for her to go in when the two of them were being so affectionate just now.
"This is the last dose of medicine for today, Granny Sang, please bring it over!"
They had a bumpy ride all the way to Beizhou, and then they reclaimed the land by themselves. She didn't even know she was pregnant until she fainted from exhaustion, and then she was allowed to stay at home to take care of the baby.
"The temperature is just right. Princess, what would you like to eat today? I pickled some pickled vegetables myself before, which are very appetizing and relieve greasiness. If you like, I can make you some pickled fish."
Haldo nodded repeatedly, his saliva almost flowing out.
"Yes, yes, make more. The prince also likes it."
"Here!"
After she finished drinking the medicine, Granny Sang went to the kitchen to cook. Beizhou was a really good place, with a flat terrain, many rivers, and bigger fish and shrimps than those in the Central Plains.
Chang Xing came over after smelling the food. The sour smell of sauerkraut filled the air and his mouth was watering.
"Grandma Sang, do you want to make pickled fish? I want to eat it too. I'll help you kill the fish."
Granny Sang said with a smile.
"Sure. Today, the logistics staff specially sent several large fish to the small kitchen. After the prince and princess have finished eating, the rest will be ours. Please clean them and cut them into thin slices."
"Okay, I can do this."
Chang Xing is learning medicine from the new imperial physician, who praises her as a promising candidate for medical studies.
Looking at the big fish, she grabbed it from the water tank with her bare hands, took a needle, and stabbed it directly. In an instant, the lively fish lost its breath.
Ximen Qing came back with some freshly picked vegetables and shook his head when he saw her killing the fish.
"Xing'er, if you are like this, who will dare to want you in the future?"
Chang Xing didn't even raise his head and quickly scraped the fish scales.
"I have the ability to support myself, so I don't care who wants me or not. If that doesn't work, I can learn from Lord Qin and support a few men."
"Forget it. I can't argue with you, mother-in-law. Look, these dishes are so fresh."
Ximen Qing can't argue with her now, because she has grown up and has her own ideas.
"It's really fresh. Wash it and I'll make some cucumber salad and three fresh delicacies later."
Granny Sang cut the sauerkraut, started a fire, boiled water and cooked rice, while peeling garlic and ginger.
Simon washed the vegetables and started cutting them skillfully on the other side. The kitchen was big enough and everyone was busy in no time.
Yu Xiaocao, now changed her name to Yu Ji, her own Ji. In the future, she will only love herself and only him.
She was responsible for washing clothes and cleaning for the princess, and she received money every month. She would carry the washed clothes and walk back with a twist of her waist.
Along the way, she attracted a lot of people's attention, but they just looked at her and didn't dare to tease her.
Yu Ji enjoyed such stares, but she looked down on these people. She liked Qian Feng, but that idiot had gone home to visit his relatives and had not returned yet.
She had inquired about it before, and found out that this money could not support more than 23 years old. Her parents were still alive at home, and she had two younger brothers. He was now a young general and would definitely have a bright future.
But she still had some inferiority complex, worried that he would dislike her. She hadn't seen him for several months and missed him very much. If he came back this time, she must be brave for once!
After hanging the washed clothes out to dry, seeing that they were in good condition, she took out the bedding to dry out in the sun. The prince and princess were very nice people, so they worked even harder.
"Yu Ji, you've moved everything out to dry!"
Haldo was feeling a little sleepy and wanted to take a rest, so he bowed to me.
"Are you sleepy, Princess? There is another set inside where you can rest."
Haldo nodded, indeed feeling a little sleepy.
"I'll take a nap first. Call me when the prince comes back."
"Here!"
