The Adventures of Princess Saiya
Chapter 520 Ancient Peasant Girl 3
Saiya's husband is called Meng Yixuan. After passing the examination for a scholar, he never took the imperial examination again. He felt that passing the examination for a scholar was already his limit.
Compared to taking the imperial examination and then becoming an official, he actually preferred to indulge in the beauty of nature, but his parents hoped that he would continue to take the imperial examination.
The two elders even came to tell Sai Ya many times, asking her to persuade Meng Yixuan to study hard and become an official if possible.
Of course, Sai Ya agreed with a smile, saying that she thought so too.
But when she spoke to Meng Yixuan, she did not say that. She only told him about her parents coming to see him, but she also expressed that she supported Meng Yixuan whether he took the imperial examination or not.
Meng Yixuan was very moved. He knew that his talent was limited and that even if he tried harder, he would not be able to pass the imperial examination.
He also told Sai Ya about this situation, but Sai Ya didn't care. She just told him that whether he liked it or not, he should not go against the two elders.
Besides, even if you don’t take the imperial examination, you can still read more books in your daily life.
Meng Yixuan also thought about it for a moment and understood what Siya meant.
The couple had a very good relationship, and since Sayya knew a lot of things, they could always talk to each other.
Sometimes we read books together, discuss articles together, sometimes we paint together, play the piano together, and we can always find the interesting side of life.
Sia would add some spiritual spring water to the food and water they usually ate and drank, so that their bodies would be very healthy.
In the third month after her marriage, Sai Ya found out she was pregnant, which made the Meng family's elders very happy, as they were going to have a grandson.
Meng Yixuan was also very happy because he was going to be a father.
He thought that he must be a good father in the future, and teach his children to read, paint, play the piano, calligraphy, ride horses, and shoot arrows. The six arts of a gentleman are essential.
He hoped that his son could be as smart as his wife, so that if he failed the imperial examination, he could let his son take it in the future.
He always knew that his wife was more talented than himself. He thought that if his wife were a man, she would definitely pass the imperial examination and become the top scorer.
Saiya had no discomfort during her entire pregnancy and the birth went smoothly.
The son's name was given by Meng Yixuan. His full name is Meng Qiongshu and his nickname is Baolin.
The Meng family hired a wet nurse early on to take care of the child.
Saiya was quite relaxed. She didn't have the idea of feeding the child herself. She was very happy that someone could take care of the child for her. As long as the person who took care of the child could ensure that he could do so with all his heart, she didn't mind spending more money.
Of course, just in case, when the wet nurse came, she cast a loyalty spell on her, and she would definitely take good care of the child.
After giving birth, Sai Ya took a pill to restore her body, so when she came out of the confinement period, she didn't gain weight or become uglier. She was even more motherly and had a more charming demeanor, which made Meng Yixuan like her even more.
When the child was three years old, news came that her brother Wang Ming had passed the imperial examination and became a Jinshi.
With this news, Sayya's life became better. Her brother had made great progress, so her husband's family naturally treated her better.
Little Baolin started listening to his mother telling stories and his father reading articles when he was three years old. Because Sai Ya had given him elixirs, he had a photographic memory at a young age and could remember everything he had heard or read.
Meng Yixuan always sighed that he had a good son. His parents' wish could probably only be realized when his son grew up.
Baolin is very sensible at a young age. He would pour tea for his parents, smile sweetly at them, and study well on his own. Of course, he also likes to stick to his mother.
Little Baolin is very cute, and he has dimples when he smiles, which makes people feel sweet.
Sai Ya hugged him and said, "Our Baolin is so cute at such a young age. When he grows up, I wonder how many girls he will charm!"
Baolin smiled in her arms, his little face flushed, but his big eyes looked at his mother without blinking.
Mother’s arms are so warm.
Later, Sia began to teach her son martial arts. In ancient times, human life was not as guaranteed as it is today, and martial arts could protect oneself very well.
Although her son was very smart, she didn't want him to be a weak scholar.
Her son was really smart. He learned the sword techniques she taught him after just watching them once. All he had to do from then on was to practice diligently on his own.
Meng Yixuan had learned horse riding and archery before, but he stopped practicing since he decided not to take the imperial examination. Now, seeing his wife and children practicing martial arts seriously, he started practicing too.
Every morning, the family of three would practice martial arts in the back garden. The surrounding scenery was beautiful, with colorful flowers, cool breeze, and heavy shadows of trees. The three of them wore the same narrow-sleeved tights and performed the same movements.
It is a scenic spot in the mansion, and people passing by will take a few more glances at it.
After the practice, we went to wash up separately and then had dinner together.
Later, Saya became pregnant again and gave birth to another son.
After this incident, Meng Yixuan felt that two children were enough for his family and he didn’t want to have any more children, mainly because he felt sorry for Saiya’s hard work during her pregnancy.
Although Saiya has various pills to relieve the discomfort during pregnancy, Meng Yixuan doesn’t know about it!
When he saw Sai Ya's big belly, he felt that it would be very tiring. If it wasn't for Sai Ya's insistence, he might not have wanted a second child.
It was Siya who said that one child was too lonely, so she wanted to have another one, so that the two brothers could support each other when the time came.
When Saiya was pregnant with her second child, Meng Yixuan took the initiative to ask the doctor to prescribe contraceptive pills for her.
He didn't tell Sai Ya about this, but who was Sai Ya? How could she not know?
Siya was very touched that he had such a heart.
It's also better for Meng Yixuan.
By the time the second son was old enough to learn martial arts and literature, their eldest son had grown into a young boy, and he took over the responsibility of educating his younger brother.
Whether it was reading and writing or practicing martial arts, it was all taught by him as his older brother.
Ten years passed in the blink of an eye, and the young boy had grown up to the age to get married.
Sai Ya asked him if he had a girl he liked. Meng Qiongshu looked at his mother, and his face was not shy like a boy of his age. He told Sai Ya calmly that he felt he was still young, did not want to get married now, and did not have a girl he liked.
Saiya knew that her son was a man with a story. She didn’t know what his past life was like, but she was willing to pamper him in this life.
So, just tell him that everything should be done according to his wishes. It’s okay if he doesn’t want to get married now, but if he finds a girl he likes one day, he must tell her.
Meng Qiongshu nodded, "Don't worry, mother. I know everything."
Sia had discovered long ago that her son was a reborn child. He was a good kid and longed for family affection, so she didn't care. Anyway, she knew that this was the child she gave birth to.
This person didn't take over someone else's body halfway through, and didn't come here halfway through, so that's enough.
Well, even if he came halfway, as long as the other person was a good person, she didn't really care about anything else. After all, wouldn't she be reborn into someone else's body halfway?
When things get quiet, one wants to move around. After being cooped up at home for so many years and her son having grown up, Saiya wanted to go out for a walk.
So I told Meng Yixuan.
Sai Ya: "We haven't been out for so many years, let's go out for a walk together, after all, we have our son at home to support us!"
Well, her son is so smart. He manages the household very well at such a young age, and he is doing very well in business.
She also admires her son's ability to make money.
When Meng Yixuan heard Sai Ya's words, his eyes lit up. He liked to indulge in nature in his early years, but he has been trapped at home all these years. Although he has a good relationship with Sai Ya, he still has some regrets in his heart.
Now hearing what Siya said, didn’t it really touch his heart?
So people started preparing immediately.
Not long after that, he set off with Siya in a two-horse carriage with many things prepared in it. Fortunately, the carriage was spacious enough.
Sai Ya: "Just the two of us? No one else? You'll drive the car?"
Meng Yixuan froze for a moment, but then recovered. He felt that it would be better for two people. He didn't want to bring anyone else along, as it would interfere with his time with his wife and would also lose romance.
Meng Yixuan: "Okay, I'll drive the car!" They were not in a hurry to travel, so they just walked slowly and went wherever they could.
They didn't have any destination anyway.
The air here is very good, especially in the wild. Wherever you go, you can see a vibrant scene with the fragrance of flowers and the rustling of leaves. Even when a carriage is driving on the road, you can occasionally see some small animals running around.
Some of them are not even afraid of people. When they see a carriage, they will follow it curiously, looking around, which is really adorable.
Sometimes, Sayya would take out some food to feed these small animals, such as carrots for rabbits and nuts for monkeys and squirrels.
They went to see the snow-capped mountains, parked the carriage at the foot of the mountain, and hiked up the mountain. They saw the animals living in the snow-capped mountains, picked beautiful snow lotus and some plants unique to the snow-capped mountains, and saw the beautiful scenery of snow covering thousands of miles.
They also built igloos and lived in them, and dug through the frozen lake to catch fish. Then they grilled the fish in front of the igloos using the food that Thea had prepared in advance.
I also went to very hot tropical rain forests and saw poisonous insects, snakes and ants there, but I also ate many delicious fruits, all of which are unique to this tropical area.
Meng Yixuan sighed while eating, saying that if he hadn't come out for a walk, he would never have the chance to see these things!
At this moment, he was eating a piece of durian in his hand. He was very curious and was not scared away by the smell of durian even though he had seen it every time.
Anyway, he saw others eating it and knew that it was not poisonous. Moreover, looking at the way that person ate durian, he thought it must be delicious.
So, even though the smell made his nose uncomfortable, he still ate it. Then, after taking a bite of the durian flesh, he was amazed.
They stayed here for quite some time.
Of course, they were not always safe along the way. They encountered robbers, but they were all fought off by the two of them.
Needless to say, Sia's fighting power is at the ceiling level in this world.
As for Meng Yixuan, he originally only knew some kung fu on horseback and archery, but later when his sons started learning martial arts, he followed suit and has never given up for so many years. Now, his skills are quite good, and he has a great chance of winning against these ordinary bandits.
Plus, with Saya watching by his side, he knew he would not be in danger, and the most important thing was to improve his own strength.
He wants to protect Sia. He is not very strong now. It is okay at ordinary times, but if he really encounters any danger, he still needs Sia's protection!
Siya doesn't care. Who protects whom? They are all family anyway.
But she also didn't say that what men need is encouragement, and she doesn't like to pour cold water on others.
Along the way, Sia also collected a lot of things into the space.
For example, fruits include bananas, lychees, strawberries, dragon fruit, durian, watermelons, star fruits, bayberries, grapes, guavas, tangerines, grapefruits, oranges, etc. These fruits existed in ancient times, but they were inconvenient to transport and some of them were easy to spoil, so only local people knew that they were edible.
When she has time, Saiya will also make some cakes and candies, all made with these fruits. After all, although she likes to eat fruits, she also likes other things.
In fact, she likes to eat anything as long as it is delicious.
She also likes to go into the forest after the rain and pick mushrooms.
Cockatiel, Matsutake, Chanterelle, white onion mushroom, black agaric, dew mushroom, grain mushroom, morel, milk mushroom, blue-headed mushroom, black boletus, yellow boletus, red oil mushroom, oyster mushroom, shiitake mushroom, enoki mushroom, bamboo fungus, etc., these are all non-toxic and can be eaten.
Not only did she pick mushrooms, she also dug some soil around the mushrooms to cultivate them in the space so that she could eat them anytime she wanted in the future.
There were also some poisonous mushrooms that she did not let go. Of course, she didn't want to eat them, but to use them to make poison.
She has studied medicine and poison. Along the way, she also dug up some poisonous plants, which she collected in the space. Of course, these poisonous plants were separated in a separate area.
Olive hepatic agaric, leopard spotted amanita, black juice cap, tiger skin bolete, gray-scaled amanita, slightly reddish cordyline, ochre-red pseudo-mouth mushroom, large deer flower mushroom, spotted mushroom, yellow horn boletus, etc.
Many mushrooms have hallucinogenic effects, and some are so poisonous that one bite of them can make you see the devil. Sia has also used these mushrooms to develop many strange medicines.
In fact, not all poisonous plants can be used to make poisons.
She also collected many Chinese herbal medicines, such as Panax notoginseng, Glehnia littoralis, Polygonatum sibiricum, Angelica dahurica, Baizhi, Duhuo, Xanthium sibiricum, Notopterygium wilfordii, Asarum, Cimicifuga heracleifolia, Bletilla striata, Forsythia suspensa, Gentiana macrophylla, Juncus wicker, Cirsium japonicum, Golden Crown Dragon Bud, Corydalis yanhusuo, Chuanxiong, Quisqualis chinensis, and Pollen Typhae.
Of course, there are also ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum, Polygonum multiflorum and so on, and there are quite a few of them.
She used some of the herbs to treat people on the road, but most of them were saved.
Along the way, Meng Yixuan also learned about his wife's erudition and medical skills.
