Chapter 1989 It smells so good
"Big Brother, Second Brother, what are you doing? Put Brother Zhu down!"
In the end, it was Li Shu who discovered the abnormality and rescued Zhu Pingan from the dire straits in time.
Otherwise, Zhu Ping'an's shoulders would be in danger. I don't know what Li Mei's elder and second brothers ate to grow up, but they are as strong as bears.
"He made you, my sister, suffer. How can we, my brother, get around him? Otherwise, she will think that our family is easy to bully."
Although Li Shu's elder and second brothers listened to Li Shu and let Zhu Ping'an go, they did not take their hands off Zhu Ping'an's shoulders. They still held him tightly, ready to teach Zhu Ping'an a lesson again.
"Brother Zhu didn't bully me. He was very kind to me. I just haven't seen you for a long time and I was too excited to see you. It's all your fault. You didn't come to see me for such a long time. I was worried."
Li Shu came over, took the two brothers' hands away from Zhu Ping'an's shoulders, and looked at her two brothers with a reproachful look.
"Hehe, so that's how it is. We have wrongly blamed our brother-in-law." The eldest and second brothers scratched their heads, chuckled, stretched out their hands to smooth the clothes on Zhu Ping'an's shoulders, and then patted him hard, and said to Zhu Ping'an with a chuckle, "Brother-in-law is a very tolerant person, he will definitely not blame us, right? Is he a good brother-in-law?"
"No, no, absolutely not."
Zhu Pingan was almost dwarfed by the two men's photos. He forced a smile and said, "With your physique, how dare I do that?"
"Okay, Nini, it's cold outside, don't get cold, let's go back to the house. Big brother, second brother, keep an eye on it and move all the things to the yard. Make sure those valuables don't get bumped or damaged."
The old father-in-law felt sorry for Li Shu and was worried about the cold wind outside, so he took off his bearskin coat and covered Li Shu with it. He helped Li Shu into the house, turned around and told his two sons to watch out for the people outside as they moved things and to be careful not to bump into anything.
Typical behavior of a daughter-slave.
Zhu Ping'an couldn't let his two brothers Dayong command the moving of things alone in the cold wind, so he stayed and helped command the people to move things. At the same time, he ordered people to make ginger tea to drive away the cold for his two brothers-in-law and all the guards and servants.
Then, Zhu Ping'an was shocked by the generosity of his father-in-law. He thought that his father-in-law had emptied all of Jiangnan.
There were several carts of silk and satin alone.
From the arrangements made by the two brothers-in-law, I learned that two of the carts of brightly colored silks and satins were for making clothes for Li Shu, one cart of cotton cloth with excellent water-absorbent properties was for making diapers for the two little ones who were about to be born, one cart of silks with cute patterns was for making small clothes for the two little ones, and one cart of furs was for making mattresses, quilts and warm fur coats for Li Shu and the two little ones. All the furs were the finest fox fur and mink fur, and there were even two tiger skins.
In addition to silks and satins, there is also a truckload of supplements such as shark fins, bird's nests, scallops, sea cucumbers, ganoderma lucidum, and ginseng.
One cart of gold and silver jewelry, corals, jade, and porcelain; one cart of children's toys; and one cart of seasonal fruits and vegetables from the south.
The unit of measurement for items is cars, which are all filled with the old father's love.
Not only that, in addition to items and things, there are also people. Yes, people. Because Jiangnan is not peaceful, Lord Taishan also recruited ten Taoist nuns with real skills to protect Li Shu's safety.
In addition to the protection of the Taoist nun, Lord Taishan also hired two experienced midwives at a high salary to ensure Li Shu's childbirth.
As for the two unborn little ones, my father-in-law did not forget them. The wet nurse, who was healthy and plump and had rich child-rearing experience, recruited four for the two little ones. Yes, four, all of them with abundant food.
The two brothers-in-law explained that they hired four wet nurses because they wanted to prevent the wet nurses from having insufficient milk, or being unwell, or the nephews being picky eaters, and to ensure that the two nephews would not go hungry...
These four are only temporary. If they are not enough later, we will have to recruit more wet nurses locally.
this.
The treatment these two little guys received was comparable to that of Jia Baoyu in Dream of the Red Chamber. Dream of the Red Chamber records that other people had only one wet nurse, but Jia Baoyu was the only one who received all the love and favor, and he had as many as four wet nurses.
Cartloads of stuff were pulled into the backyard, and then to the large trucks covered with black cloth.
These large carriages were each pulled by two horses. I wonder what valuables were on the carriages that required two horses to pull them.
"Brother-in-law, don't say that the three of us didn't think about you. These cars will take you to the barracks." The eldest and second brothers patted Zhu Ping'an on the shoulders.
"Who's in this car?" Zhu Ping'an asked curiously.
"The things on the car. We were doing business with the red-haired barbarians in the south. They were short of money, so they used the scrap copper and iron on the ship to pay off their debts. I thought my brother-in-law might need them, so I brought them here." The eldest brother patted Zhu Ping'an on the shoulder and said with a smile.
"Brother-in-law, you can open a corner and take a look. If you don't like these truckloads of scrap metal, we will melt them down."
The second brother also nodded towards the carriage, signaling Zhu Ping'an to lift a corner of the tarpaulin and take a look.
Li Shu and her two little ones were all covered in silk and satin to protect their nanny, but now they are just like useless copper and rotten iron...
This gap is a bit big.
Zhu Ping'an was also curious about what kind of scrap metal was worth Taishan and his two brothers-in-law bringing all the way here, so he reached out and lifted a corner, and then a brand new thick cannon appeared in front of him.
Damn it!
This is not scrap metal at all, it is clearly a brand new Western Portuguese artillery, and it is carried by a large ship.
Four large carriages, four large ship-borne Portuguese cannons, my father-in-law and two brothers-in-law were really generous...
Zhu Ping'an also couldn't escape the law of true fragrance.
"Thank you, Lord Taishan, and thank you, elder and second brothers. I am just in need of these scrap copper and iron." Zhu Ping'an's honest face smiled like a flower.
That’s great! With these four large Portuguese cannons, the firepower of the Zhejiang Army has been taken to a new level. The equipment battalion can also conduct in-depth research on these four cannons to improve the level of cannon manufacturing.
"There are two red-haired barbarians who were shipwrecked and rescued by us. They signed a five-year indenture. They usually tinker with scrap copper and iron on the red-haired barbarian ship. Brother-in-law will see if they are still useful. If they are, we will keep them. If not, we will take them away as laborers. We cannot let them eat for free for five years."
The eldest and second brothers clapped their hands as they spoke, and the next second a steward came over from behind with two red-haired and blue-eyed foreigners.
Both of these red-haired foreigners were from Portugal and could speak simple Chinese. Zhu Ping'an asked them a few simple questions and learned that they had fallen into the water after a shipwreck and were rescued by their father-in-law and his party. To express their gratitude, they signed a five-year indenture to sell themselves. Both of them were firearms repairmen who could repair Portuguese cannons and muskets, and had some knowledge of cannon manufacturing.
They were truly rare talents, so how could Zhu Ping'an refuse them? He immediately accepted the two foreigners.
