Chapter 258 I have a child!

"Haha, Ma San, no need to be polite!" Yang Zhengshan jumped off Hongyun's back and looked at the horses in the distance with a smile.

Hundreds of horses galloping together is still very spectacular, and of course, what is more spectacular is that these horses can be exchanged for tens of thousands of taels of silver.

"How is everything going at the horse farm recently?"

Yang Zhengshan asked as he walked towards the house of the horse farm.

"Good, everything is good!" Ma San said.

Now he is in charge of thousands of horses, how can it not be good?

Thinking of those strong horses, Ma San can wake up with a smile in his dreams.

Walking into the stable, Yang Zhengshan saw a lot of foals, most of which were their trophies, and a small part were bred by the horse farm itself.

Yang Zhengshan asked about the horse farm for a long time, and Ma San answered one by one.

When he understood almost everything, Ma San couldn't help asking, "Sir, what should we do with those cattle and sheep?"

The stable suddenly received 300 war horses and 500 foals. The stable couldn't hold them, not to mention 200 cows and 500 sheep.

If so many cattle and sheep are not dealt with as soon as possible, the grass stored in the stable will probably be eaten up by them soon.

"It's not difficult, Mingcheng, go back and find Luo Zhen and ask him to sell these cattle and sheep!"

Cattle and sheep are scarce goods, and the price is not cheap for ordinary people.

So many cattle and sheep can also be exchanged for a lot of silver.

Yang Zhengshan didn't want to raise cattle and sheep, so he had to sell them.

"Okay, I'll go to Luo Zhen tomorrow!" Yang Mingcheng quickly agreed.

Yang Zhengshan looked at the war horses outside again and asked, "What is the price of Chongshanguan war horses now?"

Ma San replied, "It's 30% lower than last year!"

Yang Zhengshan was not surprised.

The price of war horses was at a normal level last year, but at the end of the year and the beginning of this year, the price of war horses soared, almost 50%.

Now that the war is over, the price of war horses will naturally fall, and this time Chongshan Town won a great victory and seized a large number of war horses from the Donghai Hu tribe, so it is normal for the price of war horses to fall sharply.

However, Darong has always been very short of war horses. This time the price of war horses in Chongshan Town has fallen, but the price of war horses in other border towns of Darong will definitely not fall.

Yang Zhengshan estimated that it would not take long for the price of war horses in Chongshan Town to return to normal, but it would be difficult for the Yang Family Horse Farm to wait until then.

More than 500 foals would be fine, but these more than 300 adult war horses could not be raised at the current scale of the horse farm.

And it is about to enter September, and in two months Chongshan Town will enter winter. Before winter, the horse farm must prepare fodder for the winter.

"Ask Luo Zhen to see if they can deal with these war horses?" Yang Zhengshan said.

There must be many horse dealers in Chongshan Pass now, but those horse dealers all want to take the opportunity to make a fortune. Yang Zhengshan naturally doesn't want to let the horse dealers get a bargain, so he wants to see if the Luo family's channels can transport these war horses out of Chongshan Town and sell them.

It doesn't have to be sold in the border town, and it can also be sold at a good price in other prosperous cities.

After staying in the horse farm for a day, Yang Zhengshan took the opportunity to leave a lot of spiritual spring water in the horse farm.

When they returned to Anyuan City, it was already dusk.

"Master, this is a letter from Lord Wang!"

As soon as he returned to the Yang family, Wu Hai handed a letter to Yang Zhengshan.

"Lord Wang, Wang Sheng?"

Yang Zhengshan walked towards the main courtyard while opening the letter and reading it.

The letter was written by Wang Sheng, and the content was about Wang Bin's reward.

Wang Bin was promoted to the deputy governor of the Front Army Governor's Office, and was also the deputy general of Beiyuan Town, and was in charge of the third battalion of the vanguard of Beiyuan Town.

Beiyuan Town is different from Chongshan Town. Beiyuan Town has nine camps, divided into three vanguard camps, three central camps, and three rear camps.

The three rear camps are commanded by the governor of Beiyuan Town, the three central camps are commanded by the general, and the three vanguard camps are commanded by a deputy general.

In addition, Beiyuan Town has three deputy generals and eight lieutenant generals. The town camp and the reinforcement camp add up to nearly 100,000 troops.

The reason why Beiyuan Town is so much stronger than Chongshan Town is because of the strength of the Wuliang Hu tribe.

Wang Bin was lucky to be promoted to Beiyuan Town.

The deputy general of Beiyuan Town is much stronger than the deputy generals of other border towns. He has more soldiers and horses under his command, more power, and more opportunities to gain military merits.

Yang Zhengshan also wants to go to Beiyuan Town. Now that the Donghai Hu tribe has been destroyed, there should be few opportunities to gain military merits if he stays in Chongshan Town. Without military merits, he cannot be promoted quickly.

After reading Wang Sheng's letter, Yang Zhengshan thought about it and turned to the study room in the front yard.

Wang Sheng also mentioned one thing in the letter, that is, the arrangement of Luo Feiyu.

Luo Feiyu was taken care of by Wang Bin under Yang Zhengshan's care. Now that Wang Bin is leaving, he naturally has to ask Yang Zhengshan about the arrangement of Luo Feiyu.

In this regard, Yang Zhengshan thought that Luo Feiyu should stay first and make arrangements after his own official position is confirmed.

He wanted Luo Feiyu to follow him for a while. After all, Luo Feiyu was Yu Qingyi's junior brother and his brother-in-law. He still wanted to take care of Luo Feiyu and find an opportunity to improve Luo Feiyu's cultivation and potential.

After writing the letter, Yang Zhengshan handed it to Wu Hai and asked him to arrange someone to send it to Jiacheng tomorrow.

...

Entering September, the Yang family became more and more busy.

First, Yu Qingyi was about to give birth, and the maids and servants in the main courtyard had already made preparations. The best midwives and doctors in Anyuan City were invited to the Yang family, and it was Yang Zhengshan who went to invite them personally.

Although there shouldn't be any problem with Yu Qingyi's physique, Yang Zhengshan is still afraid of the possibility.

A midwife is a must, and the doctor at home can at least give him psychological comfort, anyway, it's better to be prepared.

The second thing is that Yun Xue is about to get married. Last year, the Yang family and the Marquis's Mansion set the wedding date, which is October 8 this year.

Liang Chu also wrote to Yang Zhengshan, saying that they would get married in Chongshan Pass before returning to Beijing, so the wedding date has not changed, and it is still October 8.

There is still a month before the wedding, so the preparations must be made.

Finally, it is the autumn harvest. The autumn harvest has begun, and the officials and servants of the garrison are busy with it. Yang Zhengshan also focuses on it.

Although there is an autumn harvest every year, after Yang Zhengshan became the garrison, the autumn harvest will be completed smoothly every year, but Yang Zhengshan still dares not slack off in the face of the autumn harvest.

In addition to the autumn harvest of the garrison, the Yang family's farms also need to be harvested. Now the Yang family has six or seven farms, with as many as 10,000 mu of land and more than 300 tenants.

With so many farms to harvest in the autumn, the Yang family naturally has to arrange people to watch over them.

Early in the morning of September 5, Yang Zhengshan came to the government office as usual, but as soon as he sat down in the study, Wu Hai ran over in a hurry.

"Master, master, the wife is about to give birth!"

Yang Zhengshan, who hadn't even sat down yet, stood up in a flash, said nothing, and ran towards the backyard.

The clerks and runners in the government office were surprised to see this scene. Yang Zhengshan usually looked calm and unhurried, and it was the first time they saw him being so careless about his manners.

"What's wrong?" someone who didn't know the truth asked.

"I don't know!"

"Is there something wrong with the master's family?"

"The master's family has always been peaceful, what can happen?"

The clerks and runners gathered together to discuss.

At this time, Zhou Ren came out of his study and scolded: "You dare to talk about the right and wrong of the adults behind your back, you don't want to live!"

"Go do what you should do, go do what you should do, don't mutter here!"

When the clerks saw Zhou Ren, they immediately scattered like birds and beasts, and went to work with their heads down.

Although Zhou Ren is still just a clerk without a rank, his prestige in the government office has increased a lot in the past few years, especially after returning from the battlefield, his momentum has also increased a lot, and his prestige has become higher.

On the battlefield, Zhou Ren is not a soldier who does not need to charge into battle, but he also followed the garrison camp all the way down, and he even killed people himself.

This alone is enough to intimidate these clerks and runners in the government office.

Seeing everyone dispersed, Zhou Ren looked in the direction of the backyard of the government office. Others did not know what was going on, but he could guess it.

It was no secret that Yu Qingyi was about to give birth. He spent more time with Yang Zhengshan on weekdays, so he naturally heard about it.

When Yang Zhengshan returned to the main courtyard, the maids and old women in the main courtyard were already busy. Granny Song and the midwife had already entered the delivery room. Wang also rushed over and was directing the servants to boil water.

"Dad!"

Li and Liang followed Yang Zhengshan.

"Yes!"

Yang Zhengshan calmed down at this time, walked to the main room and sat down, waiting calmly.

He couldn't intervene or help in this matter, so he could only wait quietly.

Anyway, everything that should be prepared was prepared, and he was not really worried, just a little anxious.

"Dad, mother will be fine!" Yunxue and Yunqiao also came over.

Yang Zhengshan nodded slightly, showing very calmness, but Yunxue still noticed that his eyes were always drifting towards the delivery room.

In the delivery room, Yu Qingyi's expression was very relaxed, and she didn't scream in pain like other women in labor, but there was a layer of fine sweat on her forehead.

About half an hour later, the sound of a baby crying could be heard in the delivery room.

Yang Zhengshan finally lost his composure at this time and stood up in a flash.

I have a baby!

He strode towards the woman in labor.

The crying sound was very loud. Well, this baby has a really loud voice.

Seeing that he was about to enter the delivery room, Nanny Lin stopped him and said, "Master, the midwife is still helping the lady to clean up. Let's wait a while before going in!"

Yang Zhengshan stopped. Men cannot enter the delivery room at will. It is said to be unlucky. Yang Zhengshan naturally doesn't care about these, but Yu Qingyi will care about these.

"How is the lady?"

Nanny Lin said with a smile: "Don't worry, the lady is fine!"

At this time, Nanny Song came out with the child.

"Congratulations, Master, it's a little boy!" Nanny Song said with a smile.

Boy!

Yang Zhengshan smiled happily. He also wanted a boy because women had too many constraints at this time. He hoped that his child would be more free in the future.

If it were really in his previous life, he might have liked his daughter more.
