Dressed as a widow, raising cubs, farming and building infrastructure in Ming Dynasty

Aunt Ma was stunned for a moment, then slapped her thigh: "Hey, this is not urgent. It's the old lady who makes me anxious. As long as the couple goes out, sooner or later something will happen..."

"Mom, it's been two years since we got married. We would have been married a long time ago. I'm afraid it's not me. I'm young and have no experience, so I can't judge people accurately. Why don't you take advantage of your time here to find a girl from a good family? , take it back and give him a few more children while he is young..."

When Aunt Ma saw that Qin Liu spoke sincerely and openly, and didn't look like he was being jealous, she could only sigh and echo: "Only when there is a child in this family is it popular..."

After that, Aunt Ma didn't mention it again, but she couldn't stay here.

After all, Ma Ang was a military attaché of the third rank, and there were several colleagues and subordinates who came to visit his home during the Chinese New Year.Aunt Ma went back and forth with their families several times, and then gradually went out to attend gatherings at the official family's house.

Qin Liu occasionally went out with her a few times, and mostly did needlework at home - making clothes for Li Dalang, Old Man Li, and even clothes for Erlang.

But she didn't know how to give these clothes away, so she could only lock them in the cabinet as sustenance.

Let her go to Zhu Yue. She definitely doesn't have the courage.

Zhu Yue was clearly in Shabaozi Town, but she still married Ma Ang without hesitation.

It is absolutely impossible for her and Zhu Yue to be together in this life.

The attitude of Zhu Yue's father Zhu Qi is very obvious. As long as she does not provoke Zhu Yue, he will help her take care of Erlang.

These years of providing help in times of need, it is impossible to say that she is not moved by Zhu Yue and has no feelings.

She only hoped that Zhu Yue would marry a lovely wife as soon as possible and live a happy life.

Aunt Ma's frequent outings and socializing have achieved remarkable results.

Soon, an official's wife said that an innocent girl from a relative's family could be a concubine, and even let Aunt Ma meet her.

Aunt Ma came back to check on Qin Liu's tone. Qin Liu just smiled and said: "This is a good thing, but the candidate must be chosen well. You can talk to Ma Ang and he must be satisfied."

Aunt Ma happily waited for Ma Ang to come home, and took him to the room and whispered for a long time.

As a result, Ma Ang walked out of the room with a serious face. He didn't even eat dinner. He just said "I'm going back to the military camp" and left.

Aunt Ma and Qin Liu looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes.

Aunt Ma was not discouraged.

She has been here for a few months, and she has listened attentively to what her eldest son and daughter-in-law do at night. The enthusiastic nightlife of young people makes her, an old woman, blush.

This further strengthened her determination to take a concubine for her eldest son.

I stayed up like this almost every night, and I didn't get pregnant for several months. I was afraid that the eldest daughter-in-law really had some health problem.

She also refused to go to the doctor to take medicine, so the only option was to take a concubine.

As for whether her son would have any health problems, Aunt Ma instinctively ignored the issue.The second child, Ma Yue, has already given birth to a child, and the eldest child will definitely be fine too.

In Lao Ma's family, we have never heard of anyone being unable to have children.

Ma Ang's departure and return caused a lot of discussion among his colleagues and subordinates in the military camp.

Mr. Ma is the most caring person for his family. If he doesn't go drinking wine or shopping with them, he usually goes home to rest. Why is he back to the military camp today when he is not on duty tonight?
I heard that Mr. Ma’s mother was making concubines for him. Is there a fire in the backyard?

Aunt Ma is not helpless against Ma Ang.

He is slandering now, but he has never seen anyone, so he can't wipe it off himself.

Maybe he will change his mind when he sees the girl in person.

Ma Ang came home that day and saw a guest coming to his house. He was about to leave, but his mother pulled a young and shy girl away and said she wanted to meet him.

Seeing the girl's blushing cheeks and her mother's smiling face, Ma Ang quickly understood.

He found an excuse and hurried out.

This situation was all too familiar to him.After Mr. Qu died that year, his mother also brought many young girls to the house to choose his stepwife.Later, he didn't like the one he fell in love with, and instead chose a marriage for Ma Yue.

Now that he has a wife, the old drama is enacted again, this time it is for him to take a concubine.

Ma Ang was also drunk.He was even more angry with Qin Liu.She, a decent lady, generously accepted concubines for her husband. This magnanimity clearly meant that she didn't care about herself!
Ma Ang lived in the military camp for more than a month in despair.

He wants to fully demonstrate his dissatisfaction.Otherwise, what do they think they are?What did she think of herself?

In a blink of an eye, spring is blooming and March has entered.

The Tatar soldiers came to the city and surrounded Datong without retreating for a month.

The general army of Datong requested officers and soldiers from Xuanfu and Yansui to come to support.The Xuanfu reported that there was no need to mobilize in order to prepare for emergencies in the town, while Shanxi delayed the troops to defend themselves and divided them among themselves, so as not to be exploited by the Tatar soldiers and the responsibilities could be unclear.

Ma Ang really couldn't leave the military camp this time.

In May, [-] Tatar troops came to Datong.

The Ministry of War discussed allocating 15 taels of silver to buy horses in case of emergency use by Datong and Xuanfu, and the emperor quickly approved it.

At the end of last year, 7 taels of silver were allocated to buy horses, and now it is 15 taels. Buying horses is really a waste of money.And the total amount of money can only buy more than 5000 horses.

Not long after, more than [-] Tatar soldiers entered Datong from Ma Tou Mountain, and Datong was in danger again.

When the army came, military reports flew to the capital like snowflakes, and Datong, Yansui, and Xuanfu were on alert.

As we all know, after the war between the left and right wings of the grassland two years ago, the grassland, which had been quiet for a while, regained its vitality and began to disturb the border again.

Aunt Ma was frightened by the urgent military situation, and because Ma Ang was nowhere to be found, she stopped talking about taking concubines, and just sighed all day long.

After the Dragon Boat Festival, the weather got hotter and hotter. Datong is located on the border, and there were a few nights where it was sweltering.

Qin Liu was shaking his cattail leaf fan to enjoy the cool air that day, but suddenly turned his head to look at the door of the room.

The moonlight was like water, and a figure stood at the door of the room.

Qin Liu stayed where he was and stopped breathing for a beat.

She could recognize that tall and thin figure with just one glance.

But so what?
The figure didn't say anything, but stepped forward and covered her nose with a handkerchief.

Qin Liu struggled, but couldn't escape the opponent's strong arms, and soon lost consciousness.

When she woke up again, she was already on horseback, her hands tied through the waist of the person in front of her.The moon disappeared from the sky and raindrops fell down.

Qin Liu whispered: "Bars, are you crazy?! Let me down quickly!"

Bals remained silent, whipping his riding crop, and the horse walked faster.

Qin Liu looked over and saw that there were cavalry in front and behind him. They looked like Mongolians.

"Put me down. You can't go back to the grassland like this!"

Qin Liu shouted into Bals's ear.

This idiot went deep into Datong City to kidnap her!
What would happen if the imperial officers and soldiers got the news, intercepted and killed the grassland Khan's heir and captured him?
Dayan Khan has so many sons, and now that his right wing is stable, he should not compromise with the Ming court for an impulsive son.

He will only become a pawn to be sacrificed.

This fool!

The officers and soldiers in Datong are not Zhu Yue, so they will let him go. There are many militants waiting to make achievements! (End of chapter)
