Chapter 112 Yang Family Rules
Liang lived cautiously in the first few days after arriving at Yinghe Fort, but when she learned that Yang Zhengshan didn't care about the affairs of the inner house at all, and that the inner house was managed by Yang's eldest sister-in-law Wang, she felt a lot more at ease.

After she felt relieved, her little daughter's cuteness and innocence came out.

After all, she was just a fifteen-year-old girl. Even though the people here were more mature, her mind was still not smart enough to be shrewd.

In just a few days, she became Wang's little follower.

He followed Wang around all day long, calling her "sister-in-law".

Wang also acted like an eldest sister-in-law and took great care of her younger brother's wife.

In the past, Wang was greedy and liked to take advantage of others, but now that the Yang family has become prosperous and has no shortage of food or clothing, her little bad habits are no longer necessary.

Without these problems, Wang became more and more like a mistress of the house. She kept everything in the inner house in order and took good care of everyone.

The key is that Wang has grown smarter and is no longer as stupid as before. Her IQ has skyrocketed, leaving Yang Mingcheng, the stupid one, behind.

Yang Mingcheng bought a family of servants, but Wang sent Yang Zhengshan away before he even had time to meet them.

For this reason, Yang Zhengshan specifically asked Wang the reason, and the reason Wang gave was very simple.

The servant family that was just bought was named Song. The couple was in their thirties and had two sons and one daughter.

Yang Mingcheng felt that this family was very good. The couple were not too old, just the right age to do things. Their three children were all in their teens and could be given things to do right away. They didn’t have to be raised for a few more years because they were too young.

"Dad, the girl in their family is so beautiful!"

Standing in front of Yang Zhengshan, Wang said nervously.

Yang Zhengshan was stunned for a moment, then he understood what Wang meant.

This time, the servants were bought for Liang, and they needed a woman and a maid.

Yang Minghao and Liang had just gotten married, and his family arranged a beautiful maid for Liang. What does this mean?
Do you want to take a concubine for Yang Minghao, or do you want her to be Yang Minghao's maid?

Even if his family didn't mean that, what if Yang Minghao couldn't control himself and made a mistake?

Doesn’t this affect the harmony between husband and wife?

The maids that Yang Minghao had bought before were all from military families. He had specifically emphasized to the human traffickers that they didn't want those messy maids, just to avoid such a situation.

Taking a concubine is the norm here. Anyone with a little wealth or status will have a concubine. Even some sons of wealthy families will have a maid before they get married.

Yang Zhengshan naturally didn't like this.

I don’t even have a wife, but my son has many wives and concubines. How can I feel comfortable watching this at home all day?

It would be fine if I had many wives and concubines. Although I am old, I am in good health.

As for my adopted sons, humph, stop causing me all that mess.

Thinking of this, Yang Zhengshan nodded and praised: "You did a good job. You should try to avoid such things in the future!"

"A harmonious family is the foundation of a prosperous family. A loving father and filial son, a friendly brother and a respectful younger brother, and a harmonious husband and wife are the foundation of a prosperous family!"

"In order to avoid discord within the family, it is necessary to eliminate some hidden dangers in a timely manner."

Hearing Yang Zhengshan say this, Wang couldn't help but feel relieved.

In fact, she was also worried about this kind of thing.

She came from a farming family and everything she has now came from her husband's family.

What's more important is that she doesn't just look ordinary, she's also broad and plump.

As the Yang family became more and more prosperous, she was really afraid that one day Yang Mingcheng would become tired of her and take in concubines. If that were the case, she would have no way to deal with it.

By helping the Liang family, she is also helping herself.

Now none of the men in the Yang family have concubines, so it would be better not to set this precedent, at least the later the better.

Wang's actions also gave Yang Zhengshan a wake-up call.

He had heard a lot about the secretive inner chambers of wealthy families, where a group of women had nothing to do all day long, fighting with each other, and even risking their lives, causing unrest in the family.

This kind of thing is too common here.

If the Yang family’s inner house also became like this, Yang Zhengshan would feel a toothache just thinking about it.

"How about this, my Yang family doesn't have any house rules yet, so I will set two house rules today."

"First, a man can only take a concubine if he is childless at the age of 30. Otherwise, one of his legs will be broken. Not only concubines, but also concubines and mistresses are not allowed."

"Secondly, a girl can only get married after she turns sixteen. Similarly, a bride must be sixteen before she can enter the family."

Yang Zhengshan said slowly.

It is not impossible to completely ban concubinage, especially when it comes to the continuation of the family line and the local customs, Yang Zhengshan cannot completely ignore it.

As for girls getting married at the age of sixteen, he felt that getting married at fourteen or fifteen was too early, and that people had to get married before they had grown up. Moreover, it was too dangerous to have children at such a young age.

Yang Zhengshan actually wanted to get married after he turned eighteen, but here a girl of eighteen was considered a leftover woman, so he could only compromise and set the marriage age for girls at sixteen.

Liang had already been married into the family, so he couldn't say much. But Yang Yunxue was already twelve years old this year, and he didn't want the little girl to get married so early.

After hearing what Yang Zhengshan said, Wang looked up in disbelief.

"Dad, is this true?" she asked cautiously.

"Yes, it's true! Boss, write these two down for me, and then tell everyone in the family. If anyone dares to violate them, they will bear the consequences!"

At the end of his speech, Yang Zhengshan's voice became cold.

Hearing this, Yang Mingcheng shuddered all over and said, "Dad, I understand. I will keep the family rules in mind!"

He was a very honest person and had never thought of taking a concubine. He was also very satisfied with Wang.

It is so comfortable to sleep with his chubby wife in his arms. He doesn't like those little girls who are like bean sprouts.

Wang was ecstatic. With the first family rule in place, her worries and anxieties instantly disappeared without a trace.

You can take a concubine only if you are childless at the age of 30!

She already has a son, which means Yang Mingcheng will never be able to take a concubine in his life.

Soon, the family rules set by Yang Zhengshan reached the ears of everyone in the Yang family.

The men in the Yang family all reacted indifferently to this. Yang Mingcheng was honest and had no ulterior motives at all. Yang Mingzhi was quite active, but he was obsessed with power. He preferred being an official to women.

Now he is a deputy captain of the fifth rank. He is thinking about when Yang Zhengshan will be promoted so that he can be promoted as well, so he doesn't put any thoughts on women at all.

As for Yang Minghao, this guy just got married and is in his prime, so why would he think about taking a concubine?

In comparison, the women of the Yang family were much happier.

Especially Liang, who had just joined the company, was happy and excited, and felt that happiness came too suddenly.

"Second sister-in-law, father-in-law is so nice!"

In the west courtyard, Liang sat next to Li, looking at the sleeping little Chengxian, with an unconcealable joy on her face.

At this moment, besides being happy, she had only one thought, which was to give birth to a son as soon as possible.

As long as she has a son, she will be the legal wife of the third branch of the Yang family for the rest of her life.

"Father-in-law has always been fair and reasonable. With father-in-law around, Minghao won't dare to do anything wrong. You can rest assured!" Li was also very happy, but she was always introverted and did not show too much excitement.

"Well, I'm not worried now, I'm just a little free!" Liang said embarrassedly.

In the past, at her mother's house, she could help her father take care of the cloth shop business, or do some needlework. But after coming to the Yang family, the housework was done by the servants, even sewing and cooking were left to the servants, and she seemed to have nothing to do.

This person gets bored when he has nothing to do and always wants to find something to do.

"My father-in-law said that we all need to study and practice martial arts. There are many books in the study in the front yard. If you want to read them, you can ask Minghao to get some for you."

"But I guess Yunxue will teach you how to practice shooting in the next few days. Practicing shooting is very tiring."

The two sisters-in-law were just chatting, and Li casually mentioned the rules of the Yang family.

"We can also learn martial arts?" Liang was a little surprised.

"Of course you have to learn martial arts. Not only do you have to practice martial arts, but you also have to strive to become a warrior!" Li said with a smile: "You may not know that my eldest sister-in-law is already a warrior. If I hadn't been pregnant last year, maybe I would be a warrior now."

The women of the Yang family have been practicing martial arts for a year, but when they lived in Yangjia Village, Yang Zhengshan couldn't give them spiritual spring water to drink, so their progress in practice was a little slower.

After arriving at Yinghe Fort, Yang Zhengshan would secretly add spiritual spring water into the water they drank and drank almost every day, and their cultivation progress was improved.

As early as four months ago, Wang became a warrior, but Li fell behind because of the delay caused by childbirth and confinement.

Practicing martial arts has become a rule in the Yang family. No matter whether the master or the servant, everyone has to practice martial arts.

"Well, I don't know if I can become a warrior. I heard that practicing martial arts depends on aptitude." Liang was a little worried about whether he could become a warrior.

"Don't worry, father-in-law will take time to teach us. As long as we persist, we will become warriors." Li had a blind trust in Yang Zhengshan.

Not only her, but many people in the Yang family and the Yang clan now have a blind trust in Yang Zhengshan.

In their minds, as long as they can get Yang Zhengshan's guidance, they can become warriors.

The reason for such trust has to do with the recent addition of warriors to the Yang family.

Last year, the Yang family added 18 new warriors, and in the first half of this year, the Yang family added another 32.

That’s right, the number of new warriors added in the first half of this year is more than the number added in the whole of last year.

Moreover, these warriors were all young and strong men who had been trained by Yang Zhengshan.

The reason why they can become warriors is naturally because of the spiritual spring water. The spiritual spring water has the effect of enhancing potential. Although this effect will not be manifested immediately, it will slowly manifest itself over time.

Those more than one hundred young men had drunk a lot of diluted spiritual spring water, so it was natural for them to become warriors.

Before Yang Zhengshan became a warrior, the Yang family had not added a warrior for decades. But after Yang Zhengshan became a warrior, warriors in the Yang family have sprung up like mushrooms after rain.

The key is that these new warriors have all been trained and instructed by Yang Zhengshan.

In this way, Yang Zhengshan was almost deified in Yangjia Village.

Many people believed that as long as Yang Zhengshan could give them some pointers, they could become warriors.

Yang Zhengshan had also heard about this matter from Yang Mingcheng, but he didn't take it too seriously.

Because this is a fact, although the root cause is the spiritual spring water, it was indeed caused by him.

And there will be more such things in the future. Now only the people in Yangjia Village think so. After a while, the soldiers under his command will probably think so too.

Just this year, quite a few warriors have emerged among the soldiers of Linguan Fort, with a few appearing almost every month. And as time goes by, the number of new warriors will increase every month, until all the one hundred soldiers who were trained originally become warriors.

It can be said that Yang Zhengshan is a warrior-making machine. As long as there is enough spiritual spring water and time, he can produce tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of warriors.

In fact, Yang Zhengshan has been deliberately reducing the use of spiritual spring water. Except for the Yang family, he rarely gives spiritual spring water to other people.

Just as Li said, Yang Yunxue found Liang the next day and took her to practice Yang family's spear skills.

Although the Yang family now has many basic skills, everyone in the Yang family still uses the Yang family's ancestral spear skills as the introductory method of martial arts.
