Chapter 256

After entering the house and returning to the main courtyard, the family talked lively for a while. After dinner, everyone dispersed.

After the noisy little guys left, Yang Zhengshan finally felt a little more peaceful.

"Miss Wanting used to be very quiet, why is she so noisy now?" Yang Zhengshan supported Yu Qingyi and walked into the inner room.

"The little girl was probably shy before, but now that she's familiar with the place, she's become more lively!" Yu Qingyi giggled.

Yang Zhengshan helped Yu Qingyi sit down on the bed and reached out to stroke her bulging belly.

"This kid is coming out soon!"

"Well, it will be out in two months!" Yu Qingyi's eyes were full of tenderness.

Seeing her like this, Yang Zhengshan couldn't help but feel itchy.

"By the way, you haven't named your grandson yet!" Yu Qingyi said.

"Minghao didn't get up?" Yang Zhengshan was surprised.

Yu Qingyi smiled and said, "He said this is his eldest son, and he wants you to come back to name him!"

Yang Zhengshan had a headache. Naming was a brain-consuming job, especially since the Yang family had so many grandchildren and the Yang clan had so many peers. It was not easy to come up with a name that was not duplicated in the clan.

Yang Zhengshan thought hard for a long time and said, "Thank you!"

"Well, it's a good name!" Yu Qingyi said with a smile.

Yang Zhengshan sat next to her, and his big hands unconsciously reached up.

"What are you doing!" Yu Qingyi slapped his restless hand away in embarrassment.

Yang Zhengshan coughed awkwardly. He was home and saw his wife. What else could he do?

"I still have a body!"

Yu Qingyi looked at him helplessly, "Why don't you just take Qingxia and Hongyun into the room!"

This Hongyun is not a horse, but a maidservant beside Yu Qingyi.

Qingxia and Hongyun are not young anymore, they are both 22 or 23 years old, and are old girls.

"Don't let your imagination run wild. I have no intention of taking a concubine!"

"They are not young anymore!" Yu Qingyi said softly.

Women are contradictory beings. Sometimes they are jealous, and sometimes they are too kind.

Yu Qingyi doesn't want Yang Zhengshan to take a concubine, but she also wants to give Qingxia and Hongyun a good home.

"They are not young anymore, so just find someone to marry them! If the ones at home are not suitable, the personal guards around me can also be used, they are all good guys, and then you can just exchange their indentures with them!" Yang Zhengshan really had no idea of ​​taking concubines. Although Qingxia and Hongyun were both good-looking, he had never thought of marrying them into the family.

It’s not that he is loyal and not lustful, but he has his own principles and bottom line.

If you want peace in your home, don't take a concubine.

He must abide by the family rules he set.

"Is this appropriate?" Yu Qingyi asked.

"What's inappropriate about that? As long as they are willing, it's fine. Even if they get married, they can stay in the mansion to serve you!" Yang Zhengshan said indifferently, and his hand involuntarily climbed up the mountain again.

"You!" Yu Qingyi was helpless and ashamed.

Yang Zhengshan chuckled and whispered something in her ear.

Before he could finish, Yu Qingyi's cheeks turned bright red.

"You old pervert!"

"We are an old married couple, there is nothing to be shy about!"

Yang Zhengshan was really a frivolous person. He pulled Yu Qingyi to the bed.

The curtain was lowered, and a rustling sound came from inside the curtain.

……

The third day of August.

Since early morning, there were crowds of people outside Anyuan City attending the funeral.

White banners were like a forest, wailing filled the air, and thousands of people, dressed in mourning, walked all the way from Chengguanbao to Shili Mountain in the east of the city to see him off.

The desolate sound of suona reached the sky, and fluttering paper money covered the road.

Yang Zhengshan wore a linen robe and carried the coffin himself, walking in front. Almost all the people in the city ran out.

The soldiers of the garrison camp all came from military households in various military settlements. Behind each soldier there was a family, and each family had a wife, children and the elderly.

Needless to say, the pain of losing a loved one is unbearable. Yang Zhengshan is unable to comfort this pain. All he can do is to send the heroic souls who died in battle on their final journey, distribute the full amount of pension to their families, and then try his best to provide them with some benefits to ensure that their families can live a stable life in the future.

The funeral lasted a whole day until it got dark, when Yang Zhengshan and his soldiers sent the family members away one by one.

The next afternoon, a long team came from Jiacheng, with dozens of horse-drawn carriages, three hundred cattle, and eight hundred sheep. These were the spoils of the garrison camp.

At the beginning of the expedition, Yang Zhengshan would distribute gold and silver to the soldiers, but as they conquered more and more tribes, Yang Zhengshan gave up distributing the money on the spot.

There is no other way. Gold and silver are also very heavy. Twenty or thirty taels of silver are fine, but if each soldier is given hundreds of taels to carry on their backs, it will affect their combat.

So in the end, Yang Zhengshan handed everything over to Wang Sheng.

Naturally, it would not be as profitable as dividing the money on the spot after the things passed through Wang Sheng's hands. It was not because Wang Sheng was greedy for their money, but after the things were transported back to Jiacheng, the room for operation was much smaller, and some rules still had to be followed.

But even so, the garrison camp still got a lot of spoils. There were 28,000 taels of silver in the dozens of carriages. After this money came into Yang Zhengshan's hands, Yang Zhengshan did not hesitate and directly distributed 20 taels to each soldier as their reward. The remaining 5,000 taels were deposited in the account room of the garrison officer's office.

Three hundred cows were distributed to the garrisons to be used as draft animals.

Eight hundred sheep were provided, one for each family of the fallen soldiers, and the rest were slaughtered and the meat was distributed.

After dividing the money in this way, the soldiers in the garrison camp all made a small fortune.

Each soldier had an income of at least fifty taels, and the families of the fallen soldiers received nearly a hundred taels of silver and items.

These spoils of war belonged to the garrison office and the garrison camp. They were distributed by the shogun's office and had been approved by the imperial court, so they were considered legal gains.

In addition to these legal gains, Wang Bin did not forget Yang Zhengshan's share.

On the same day, the Yang family's horse farm received 300 adult horses and 500 foals, as well as 200 cows and 500 sheep, in addition to more than a thousand pieces of fur, hundreds of martial arts manuals, more than a hundred gemstones of various types, and a large box of precious medicinal materials, including two precious medicinal herbs.

When saying this, Yang Zhengshan was not surprised. He knew that Wang Bin would definitely not leave out his share, but the two precious herbs made Yang Zhengshan extremely surprised.

Where did this precious medicine come from?

Yang Zhengshan thought about it and couldn't figure out where these precious medicines came from.

This was normal. Although they had conquered many tribes, they did not sort out the spoils due to time constraints. To be honest, he did not know how much spoils they had gained this time.

Since Wang Bin gave it to him, he should just keep it.

"Dad, I'll put these two precious herbs in the warehouse for you first!"

In the main hall of the Yang family's main courtyard, Yang Mingcheng put away the brocade box containing the precious medicine and said.

Yang Zhengshan looked at the two precious medicinal herbs, one was a hundred-year-old ginseng, and the other was a hundred-color flower.

Baise flower is an evergreen shrub that looks similar to a rose. It blooms once a year. Initially, the flower has only four petals, but one petal is added every year. The color of each petal is different, hence the name Baise flower.

However, the Baise flower in front of him had only twenty-four petals, which meant it had only grown for twenty-one years.

Well, there is only one flower. A Baise flower usually has four to six flowers.

The effects of Baise flower are to promote blood circulation, nourish the skin and promote qi circulation.

It can invigorate blood circulation and relieve fatigue, and has a miraculous effect on warriors in the body-building stage. It can enhance the circulation of Qi and blood in the body and improve the efficiency of practice.

It is said that a hundred-year-old white flower can keep one's face young, but a twenty-year-old one should not have such an effect.

As for the circulation of Qi, the Qi here refers to the strong Qi. For acquired warriors, the strong Qi is the foundation. The Baise Flower can speed up the circulation of the strong Qi, allowing acquired warriors to more clearly perceive the circulation trajectory and other situations of the strong Qi, which helps acquired warriors improve their control over the strong Qi.

Yang Zhengshan reached out and picked up the Baise flower, feeling a little regretful.

This Baise flower has lost its vitality, otherwise he could have transplanted it into the Lingquan space.

"Use the ginseng to make soup! I'll share some with everyone in the evening!"

It's just a hundred-year-old ginseng. What Yang Zhengshan lacks the least now is ginseng. Although none of his ginseng is a hundred-year-old ginseng, but in terms of efficacy, the ginseng in the Lingquan space also has what the hundred-year-old ginseng has, but its strength is not as good as that of the hundred-year-old ginseng.

Strength can be accumulated by quantity. He often takes out ginseng to make soup for the cook at home, so he is the least interested in this century-old ginseng.

Among precious medicines, century-old ginseng is a panacea that can strengthen the body, cure diseases, calm the mind and soothe the soul, etc. It has many benefits, but precisely because ginseng has so many benefits, no one benefit is particularly outstanding.

For example, Baise flower has the effect of promoting qi circulation, and ginseng also has this effect, but it is not obvious. It cannot allow warriors to more clearly perceive the trajectory of the movement of internal energy, which makes this effect of ginseng a dispensable and useless thing.

Therefore, among the many precious medicines, the price of Centennial Life is in the lower middle range, while in the north of Dayong, Centennial Ginseng is also the most common precious medicine.

Yang Mingcheng responded and left with the ginseng in his arms. Yu Qingyi, who was standing beside him, looked at the Baise Flower in surprise. "This is the Baise Flower! I didn't expect the legend to be true. The Baise Flower really has many colors!"

The Baise flower is extremely rare. Not to mention ordinary people, even acquired warriors have rarely seen one. They have only heard some rumors from hearsay.

"Well, keep it. Don't use it now. Wait until the baby is born!"

Yang Zhengshan handed the Baise flower to Yu Qingyi without any concern.

This thing has the effect of beautifying and nourishing the skin, and is most attractive to women.

Sure enough, when Yu Qingyi heard Yang Zhengshan say this, her eyes suddenly lit up.

"Give me!"

She looked at Yang Zhengshan in surprise.

"Of course, you are my wife, who else should I give it to if not you!" Yang Zhengshan said with a smile.

Yu Qingyi blinked, the joy between her eyebrows almost bubbling.

But she thought about it and said, "Forget it. This thing has a miraculous effect on acquired warriors, but it doesn't have much effect on us. It's more suitable to give it to Mingcheng and the others!"

There is no woman who doesn't care about her appearance, but compared to beautifying the skin, the best effect of Baise Flower is to enhance the control of the energy of acquired warriors.

If we consider it from the perspective of maximizing benefits, it is undoubtedly best to give it to the three brothers Yang Mingcheng. Their cultivation level is now most suitable for using the Baise Flower.

Yang Zhengshan shook his head slightly and said with a smile: "You keep it, they can't use it!"

The Baise flower has great effects, but the Yang family members are nourished by spiritual spring water and do not need any precious medicine at all.

In fact, even if it is given to Yu Qingyi, it is meaningless. Although the spiritual spring water does not have the effect of beautifying the skin, it can enhance physical fitness and improve potential, and itself can make the body younger.

Just like Yang Zhengshan’s full head of black hair now, it is because of the nourishment of the spiritual spring water.

Seeing that Yang Zhengshan insisted, Yu Qingyi did not refuse and happily put away the Baisehua.

No matter what, she still liked the Baise flower very much, and she wanted the beauty and skin care effects of the Baise flower even more. Since Yang Zhengshan was determined to give it to her, there was no need for her to keep refusing.
