Chapter 148 - 148 144 Its Time to Find a Wife
?Chapter 148: Chapter 144: It’s Time to Find a Wife! Chapter 148: Chapter 144: It’s Time to Find a Wife! At night, in the main courtyard’s study, Yang Zhenshan was hunched over his desk, calculating the remaining grain and Silver Coin in the government office.
He hadn’t gone to Songzhou Guard merely to deliver New Year’s gifts; he was also there to request grain and salary.
After accepting Yu Lu as his guest, Sha Pingchuan generously fulfilled his request, promising that within three days, the full amount of grain and salary would be transported to An Yuan State City.
That was the part that Yang Zhenshan found odd, but whether it was odd or not didn’t matter anymore. What he was considering now was how much benefit to distribute to the soldiers.
The soldiers of the garrison camp should receive their share, and so should the soldiers inside the garrison outside the city.
In the short term, Yang Zhenshan couldn’t change the lives of these military households, but he could distribute some grain to them, allowing them to have a good New Year.
At the same time, he could seize the opportunity to court favor, ensuring that all the soldiers and military households under the command of the garrison office were aware of his generosity.
This way, he would face less resistance when dealing with the officials of the garrison after the New Year.
As Yang Zhenshan was pondering how much grain and salary to distribute to each soldier, the door to the study was gently pushed open; Yu Qingyi, clad in a light cyan brocade peony jacket, walked in.
Yang Zhenshan glanced up at her but didn’t pay much attention.
Yu Qingyi carried a pot of soup to the side of the desk; with casual ease, she lifted the lid and served a bowl of silver fungus and lotus seed porridge.
“Sir, this is porridge freshly made by me, please have a taste!”
During this time, Yu Qingyi had been staying in the main courtyard, so she had become familiar with Yang Zhenshan.
No longer feeling the fear and aversion towards Yang Zhenshan as before—possibly in an effort to please him, or maybe just because she felt he was a decent person—she would often make some food for Yang Zhenshan.
There was a small kitchen in the main courtyard, previously used only for heating the kang, but now it had become Yu Qingyi’s exclusive kitchen.
The Sect Leader was not only adept at Sword Dao but also extremely skilled in cooking; her porridge and soups were even more delicious than those made by the cooks at home.
As for Yu Qingyi doing these things, Yang Zhenshan didn’t stop her—as long as she didn’t leave the main courtyard, he didn’t mind her doing whatever she wanted.
It seemed that Yang Zhenshan had grown accustomed to Yu Qingyi’s feeding; he simply reached out to take the bowl and slurped it down.
After finishing the bowl of silver fungus and lotus seed porridge, Yang Zhenshan nodded in satisfaction, “Not bad!”
“Sir, would you like another bowl?” Yu Qingyi asked with joy-filled eyes.
