Brother Jiu's face turned dark: "The atmosphere in this palace has gone bad. The master wants to live according to the slave's face! Those bastards in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, relying on the Khan Amayurong, used chicken feathers as arrows!" As he said this, he did not forget. Helped Grandma Liu to speak: "Grandma is a bit verbose, but she is not a bad character. She is also afraid that you will offend the villain and suffer the consequences of the villain..."
Shu Shu nodded and said a few words on behalf of Aunt Zhou: "Master, don't blame Aunt Zhou for nagging. She has been rigid all her life. She pays special attention to rules and has protected me since I was a child... She has already taken off her errands at home. He was worried that I would be weak and unable to stand up after entering the palace, so he insisted on following me and served for a year... But I overthought it, this is the palace, my home, and my home, what can't stand up?"
A mother-in-law in her sixties would not come close to him easily, and her seniority was always there. What could Brother Ninth have to criticize?
That's it.
Shu Shu thought about Grandma Liu's unkindness and didn't want to be so passive. She had to make a foreshadowing.
She lowered her head, touched her belly, and her expression softened.
"Eat too much? Gastric bloating?"
Brother Jiu misunderstood and reached out to rub her belly.
Yesterday he felt uncomfortable, and Shu Shu also rubbed it for him.
Shu Shu's hand clasped on Brother Jiu's: "Master, don't move..."
The small hands of the two pressed against the big hands, both of which were pressed against Shu Shu's belly, which was separated by two layers of clothes.
Shu Shu pursed her lips, with a shy look on her face: "Master, will there be a little brother or little princess here?"
Brother Jiu felt his scalp numb and almost jumped up.
It scares people to death!
Although it is not uncommon for women to give birth to children, Brother Jiu never thought that it would happen to Shu Shu, nor did he think that he would become an Ama so soon? !
He is still a child!
"Have you invited the imperial doctor? Hurry up and call the imperial doctor..."
Brother Jiu's face turned pale and he spoke with a vibrato. He was about to go out and call for someone while speaking.
Shu Shu twitched the corner of her mouth, this reaction was too much.
Not to mention it is a safe period, even if it is not a safe period, it will not take three or five days after the wedding to find out that you are pregnant.
She quickly grabbed Brother Jiu's arm: "Sir, there's no need to call anyone, I just want to think about it... Before I left home, I heard my grandma say, 'My wife was my child, I didn't wait for three years' '...I thought, three years is too long, it would be great if we could have it now..."
Brother Jiu then breathed a sigh of relief, glared at her, and said angrily: "I think it happened all at once, it's scary... What's there to be anxious about? It's only been a few days... I don't even think about it. You will think of urging us, but you should talk about it yourself..."
Shu Shu's eyes sparkled: "I'm not thinking that it would be great to have a little brother who looks like me..."
Brother Jiu reasoned: "What if you don't love Little Gege? Really, your mother's family doesn't have the habit of 'preferring boys over girls', but you do..."
The two of them were just teasing Menzi, and Shu Shu didn't argue with him. She just hesitated as if remembering something in a daze: "Speaking of children, there is something I want to discuss with you..."
Brother Jiu looked at Shu Shu with a look of surprise on his face and said, "Could it be that the sun is coming out from the east? You are not the most correct idea, so you still ask me to make up your mind?"
Shu Shu rolled her eyes at him, but still lowered her head and looked at her belly gently: "When it comes to little brother and little princess, if you don't discuss it with their Ama, who should you discuss it with..."
Brother Jiu thought of his wife's words just now, "Back then, my daughter-in-law was the head of the family."
They are getting married at the end of June, and there is no chance of this year...
But if it's quick...
The pregnancy will happen in October, which will happen in April or May next year.
The ninth elder brother is in conflict. The newlyweds are so sticky that they wish they could have conjoined twins. It would be inconvenient if the wife is pregnant.
but……
Who among the brothers who are married doesn’t look forward to a legitimate son? !
The prince has not yet been born, and the eldest brother has given birth to four legitimate daughters in succession before he can expect a legitimate son...
The third elder brother and the fourth elder brother both have legitimate sons...
The fifth elder brother and the seventh elder brother's eldest son were born first. Many children bring blessings. No one said anything in person, but just watching the empress sigh behind her back, feeling more worried than happy, she knew it was not a good thing...
The main lessons learned from the battle between the eldest brother and the prince are...
If the eldest son of a concubine falls to the ground first, it is the source of chaos in the family.
Brother Jiu became serious: "What is going on?"
"I want to leave two heirlooms for little brother and little princess..."
Shu Shu said: "I have a set of gold necklaces engraved with the Heart Sutra, which were consecrated at Hongluo Temple... and a pair of silver bracelets inlaid with turquoise, which Amma wore when she was a child... except for these Both, I keep all the things I used when I was a child, but I have to put the dowry in a book, and I also have to pay attention to new things, so I keep most of them at home until we open a house and move them here..."
Brother Jiu was confused when he heard this: "You can keep it if you want. What's there to discuss?"
"But little brother and little princess not only have Eni, but also have Amma..."
Shu Shu scolded: "It's true, even if the fifth uncle has a eldest son, and you are happy for the fifth uncle, you don't have to give away all the things... There won't be any in the future. I will feel wronged on behalf of the children..."
Brother Jiu was dumbfounded, and it took him a while to remember the reason: "Didn't I make room for you in the first place?! Some of the gifts could not be moved, and there was no place to put the others, so Aunt Liu took care of it..."
"So I have to trouble you to see if I can look through the gift list with my fifth uncle... pick up the toys and objects that both me and my fifth uncle have, and bring them back. Keep them well and distribute them to the children in the future... We don't take them for nothing. , sent people outside the palace to pick up fashionable new toys and bought two more boxes for little brother..."
Shu Shu took Brother Jiu's arm, his eyes were very gentle, and his tone was pleading.
Brother Ninth nodded: "What's the point? One day when I meet Brother Five, just say..."
If it were anyone else, of course he wouldn't speak.
How can anyone give a gift and then ask for it in return? !
But that was my brother, not someone else. At that time, I was also dealing with things in the name of giving gifts.
They are all princes and elder brothers, and many of the toys they played when they were young were made by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
The ninth elder brother has it, the fifth elder brother has it, and there are a lot of repetitions. Since Shu Shu wants to leave a message for the children, what's the point of getting a copy back.
On the other hand, Nanny Liu, although she thought she was a bit verbose before, was more loyal and careful, but now she seems a little careless and not very thorough.
Shu Shu's face was filled with joy, but she still looked at her stomach: "Then I'll be waiting..."
Brother Jiu didn't feel at ease when he saw how she was looking forward to having a child.
The fate of girls here is really hard to say.
Several sisters-in-law have been here for many years, and Brother Jiu has heard a lot of news about children.
Just talk about Da Fujin, saying that she is unlucky, she was pregnant when she got married; saying that she is lucky, she gave birth to four children in one breath, and only gave birth to a son with her fifth child, but it hurt her body.
As for the Crown Princess, many people were looking forward to having a legitimate son and grandson, but it took three years after she married into the palace to make any news. As a result, thousands of people were looking forward to giving birth to a princess.
"According to me, this kid doesn't have to worry..."
Brother Ninth made a draft in his mind and said seriously: "It's okay for us to live in this place. Plus there are so many children... It's still two years too late. It's older than the eldest son and the prince's children." Otherwise, due to Amma’s partiality, she would identify her eldest son’s family and her second son’s family, and she would not be able to see anyone else... When we leave the palace and open a mansion, we will be the masters of our own affairs, and there will be no pressure from above. Don't worry, the children won't be angry either..."
At the end, he lowered his voice: "Not to mention others, let's just say that the eldest sons of the third and fourth families are all legitimate sons, but they are all prepared by the Ministry of Internal Affairs according to precedent. When did Khan Ama ask this? As for the fifth brother The eldest son of the Lao Qi family is even more transparent and no one cares about him..."
When Shu Shu marries in, in addition to preparing gifts for the elders, the younger generations also need to prepare gifts.
Although it was not easy to visit all the palaces, they still sent Nanny Qi to deliver the goods to their families, so they still remember these situations.
There are indeed many grandsons in the palace.
There are three in the Yuqing Palace, but Hongxi, who will be regarded as the "emperor's direct grandson" in later generations, does not have the status and prestige in the future, because he has the eldest grandson of his compatriot, the emperor, and his aunt has only been in the palace for a few years. He is also looking forward to his legitimate son.
The one in Qiandongtou, who was three years old, was born to Dafu Jin who struggled to survive, and he was considered to be standing.
The one from Qiandong Second School was also the eldest son of Sanfujin, who was also three years old. However, in the first half of the year, he also lost a bastard who was just born.
There are two from Qiandong Sansuo, one a direct descendant and the other a concubine, both of whom are over one year old.
One of the four people in Qiandong is the concubine's eldest grandson, who is giving Concubine Yi a headache. He is only three years old.
One of the five schools in Qiandong, the eldest son of the seventh elder brother.
In addition, each family also has a small grid.
Shu Shu seemed to understand why the princes wanted to seize the heir apparent.
The situation is really different.
They are all brothers from the same father, who would be willing to do that?
If it were placed in the Ming Dynasty, it would be okay. No matter whether the fiefdom was rich or poor, at least the level of the vassal prince would be the same. A hereditary prince would occupy the same place.
In the Qing Dynasty, there was some meaning of "obeying one's mother". Different mothers and concubines had different titles.
Fortunately, Lord Shunzhi's sons are either royal brothers or younger brothers. There are not many of them in the general public, and they are all princes and princes of Heshuo.
However, the sons of Taizu and Taizong, who were ranked lower in the ranking, had no military exploits, and whose biological mother was also Xiao Fujin, were only granted the title of Bujin Bafenggong, and were directly transferred to the Shangsanqi without distinction of assistants.
The treatment of Prince Heshuo and Buru Bafengong are very different.
Brother Jiu just thought his wife was scared and comforted him: "Don't think too much, let's live our lives well, and there is no need to compete for favors... In the future, we will have little brothers and little princesses, and we will love them very much. And The queen is here..."
Shu Shu smiled and nodded, looking at Brother Jiu.
It’s really surprising. Brother Jiu has no thoughts of fighting for power at the moment. He actually wants to be rich and content? !
Maybe it's because he's too young.
What is the catalyst?
Was he dragged into the water just because of his brotherly loyalty to his eighth prince?
What an injustice!
Shu Shu felt that she needed to pay attention.
Brother Jiu thought of "returning home" and asked with concern: "By the way, what do my father-in-law and mother-in-law like?"
