"Our father borrowed money from Uncle Wu twice in April and May, which added up to ten thousand taels..."
Shu Shu told the story about Brother Ninth’s previous purchase of a property: “When I mentioned this during a break on the road at noon, my daughter-in-law was worried about these foreign debts. It was not a small amount, so she thought that she could not collect enough money and could not let it go in vain. Daxing Zhuangzi paid it to the fifth uncle... Our father-in-law was afraid that he was short of silver a few days ago, so he refused to pay it back, insisting that he would keep it to add income, and then pay it back later if he received a reward from the emperor... His daughter-in-law was afraid Later, the fifth uncle didn’t remember this debt and asked our father to ignore it. He told his sister-in-law that our father knew that the foreign debt was in the open, so he couldn’t let it go without shame..."
Wu Fujin hurriedly said: "Uncle Jiu is right, Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing is rare. It is a coincidence to get it, and it will be beneficial to keep it... The fifth master is not short of money, and he still has his salary. As an elder brother, he should help his younger brother. of……"
Shu Shu couldn't help but laugh.
The daughters-in-law of other people's families always tried to pull her in, for fear of not being able to take advantage.
Wufujin is pulling outwards, not just for show, but because he really thinks so. This is the generosity of his elder sister-in-law.
Sitting on the Arhat's couch, Concubine Yi was in a good mood, but there was anger on her face. She looked at Shu Shu and said, "I don't want to hide it for him, but I want to put the foreign debt in front of him and look back carefully to complain..."
The eldest daughter-in-law is kind-hearted, and the younger daughter-in-law is also upright and not greedy.
Otherwise, this pre-marriage debt belongs to her brother, not someone else. As long as she pretends not to know, and doesn't mention it, no one will find fault with her.
I am mentioning this now because I saw Wu Fujin was uneasy about getting the bracelet, so I used this to distract from the conversation.
Even though Concubine Ziyi was not happy with Wufu Jin before because she thought she was too rigid, now her dislike has gone away a lot.
With such a generous temper, even if he was annoyed in his heart, he would sulk himself without thinking about offending others.
Otherwise, with her status as the direct descendant of Fujin, just like the Seventh Fortune Jin, she can keep a little princess in order as long as she sets the rules.
Concubine Yi sighed softly, looked at Wu Fujin and said softly: "Lao Jiu is still a half-grown child. Seeing the weather, E Niang is too lazy to worry about him, so she leaves everything to your younger siblings... The same is true here at Lao Wu... "
Wu Fujin felt uneasy and stood up: "Empress..."
"You are the ones who will live your whole life from now on. Two or three years seems to be a long time now, but it is nothing compared to a lifetime... In the palace before, the Queen Mother was watching with me, and no one dared to I'm neglecting you, but why don't you wait until you go out later? There are always those villains who want the masters to fall out of harmony. They play both sides, flatter the superiors and suppress the inferiors, and get some benefits in the middle... Whether you can stand up or not, it's only in these six months... If you still want to If you want to live a lonely life and don't want to worry about it, I won't force you..."
Concubine Yi thought about it and said that she already had an idea. She said that this time, if Wu Fujin still gave up like this, she would talk to the Queen Mother and arrange for a nanny to come over.
The fifth elder brother has a kind-hearted temperament and will show at least respect to his wife, but his temperament is simple and simple. If he is influenced by the wind and fooled, he is not "loving his concubine and destroying his wife", but he is also lustful and confused.
Wu Fujin's eyes were red, and he solemnly said: "Empress, my daughter-in-law is wrong... I will never be so ignorant again..."
Concubine Yi was surprised when she heard the words and hurriedly got up from the couch and helped Wu Fujin to stand up: "Good boy, there's no need to be like this... I know it was Brother Wu who wronged you..."
Wu Fujin hurriedly shook his head: "Master Wu treated his daughter-in-law well and treated him with respect. It was my daughter-in-law who thought wrong before..."
The fifth elder brother is not a fool, so he naturally knows the difference between wives and concubines.
Apart from the inconsistency between the couple, there is something else that is unknown to outsiders.
Concubine Yi only looked forward to her son and daughter-in-law being harmonious and beautiful, and had no intention of intervening. She only comforted her softly: "There is no need to mention the past, the days to come will be long..."
Wu Fujin nodded, his face full of gratitude.
Shu Shu saw that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had finished talking about the business, and the atmosphere was a little sad and solemn, so he took the initiative to bring up the business: "Madam, my daughter-in-law has prepared a lot of side dishes. In addition to our share, she also prepared the fifth uncle's and tenth uncle's... However, the sister-in-law reminded the daughter-in-law that it is not good to eat alone, and asked our father to send some to other brothers later... and other elders, the sister-in-law also asked the daughter-in-law to bring some, and they will be distributed according to the mother-in-law..." At this point, I brought a few She was very shy: "Either I didn't think of being filial to the empress and the Queen Mother earlier, or I was worried that it would be vulgar and not as refined as the royal meal prepared, so I didn't dare to be ugly and behave..."
After hearing this, Concubine Yi smiled and said, "Even if you don't bring food, I will send someone to ask for it... I was in front of the Queen Mother just now, and the Emperor was also there. He mentioned the lunch meal, but he complained a lot and blamed you. You are a child who is not sensible. You know how to bring food to your brothers without thinking about your elders... I know that you are a sensible child. You must be cautious and cautious, and you are in the way of your sister-in-law above. You don't want to be in the limelight. Your sister-in-law is right. , we still need to be more thoughtful and not allow others to find fault..."
Concubine Yi misunderstood, thinking that Shu Shu was thinking about the Five Fortunes and the Seventh Fortunes, and did not want to be in the limelight in front of the elders.
Otherwise, the Five Fortunes and Seven Fortunes will appear incomplete in comparison.
Shu Shu stood up and listened. No one else was around, so she asked her doubts: "Your Majesty...didn't you say that it is taboo in the palace to send food?"
"Who said that?"
Concubine Yi had confusion on her face.
Even Wu Fujin showed curiosity on his face.
Shu Shu knew that his established knowledge was once again inconsistent with the truth.
Shu Shu looked shy and whispered: "In the storybook..."
It cannot be said that it is the established impression left by palace fighting dramas. The road to upgrading the harem in the Forbidden City is written as a bloody storm. One person dies today and another person dies tomorrow. Only the winner can survive to the end.
Until Shu Shu married into the palace, knowing about the dead was probably an exaggeration.
Because dead people are taboo in the palace, I think it will ruin the feng shui.
Not to mention palace maids and eunuchs, even concubines who were seriously ill and could not be treated had to be moved out of the Forbidden City and sent to Ji'an or other places in the imperial city to wait for their last breath.
Except for the Queen Mother, Emperor and Empress.
Shu Shu had attacked the grandmother on the stove before and said that she had been beaten to death, but that was just a talk.
Not to mention Prince Fujin, even the head of the first palace like Concubine Yi was not qualified to order anyone to be killed.
"Hahahahaha!"
Concubine Yi couldn't help but laugh so hard that she burst into tears: "You kid, you are obscuring in your studies. Your stories are made up by idle people in the market. How can you take them seriously?"
Wu Fujin couldn't help but smile, but the corners of his mouth were also curved.
Shu Shu's cheeks were hot and she couldn't stand still.
Concubine Yi saw this in her eyes, stopped smiling, waved her hands and said: "Stop standing, sit down... I was thinking before, why did Xiao Jing come over with a recipe for food, but didn't say that Xiao Jing was ready-made, and it wasn't because I was afraid of the cold winter months? The food is cold, it turns out that is the reason..."
Still a child after all, Yifei's eyes became softer and softer.
She has seen her eldest daughter-in-law's stubbornness before.
In just half a month, there has been such a change, and this is because someone has persuaded me.
Apart from Shu Shu, the well-informed and sensible little sister-in-law, where else could there be anyone else?
She had grown fond of Shu Shu, her little daughter-in-law, because of her ninth brother's health, and now she wished she could be treated as her daughter-in-law.
She used to think that her youngest daughter-in-law, Linglong, was so sweet and sweet, and came up with all these new ways to eat food. It was because her sisters-in-law had no such precedent, so they never delivered food to avoid being more conspicuous than her sisters-in-law. Even the fifth elder brother received the same treatment.
It turned out that it was because of this rumor.
"This palace is not a dragon's den or a tiger's den, so why should we be so worried?"
Concubine Yi said in a gentle tone: "Even though the yard is bigger, we are still a family. Nothing in the book is so evil. You don't have to be so careful..."
Shu Shu nodded obediently: "Yeah, my daughter-in-law will not misunderstand me in the future and will understand her better!"
Concubine Yi nodded and looked at Wu Fujin again: "You are the sister-in-law, and you are two years older than her. It is time for you to give her more guidance... You have done a good job today, and you deserve a reward..."
Wu Fujin stood up quickly: "Empress, no need, my daughter-in-law has already taken advantage of her younger siblings, and she has no face to accept the reward from the empress..."
"Reward you and reward her too. Reward your sister-in-law for doing a good job. Reward her for carefully preparing food. She is so generous that she even prepares food for her brothers..."
As Concubine Yi spoke, she motioned to Xianglan to get something.
Xianglan took out several brocade boxes, which were about one foot square, and handed one to Wufujin and Shushu, leaving one in her hand.
"Open it and take a look, do you like it?"
Concubine Yi ordered with a smile.
Shu Shu only felt that her hands were heavy. This jewelry box was made of fine golden nanmu, so it was so heavy on her hands, and there were magnolia flowers engraved on the surface.
The box is so exquisite, but what about the inside?
Shu Shu opened the box carefully and her eyes widened.
It turned out that it was not just the box that had sunk, but also the jewelry inside.
They are all filigree inlaid pink tourmaline gold jewelry, a complete set, a half-inch wide necklace, a pair of seven or eight-inch wide bracelets, a pair of magnolia tourmaline flower hairpins as big as a child's palm, and three pairs of gold tourmaline hairpins with the same design and color. earring.
Gold is a good thing, and tourmaline is crystal clear, but it is too big.
Maybe it just looks big?
Shu Shu picked up a gold bracelet, and her hand sank. It weighed not only half a catty, but three or four taels.
Shu Shu saw that the box in Yan Xianglan's hand was the same size as her own, but the color of the box was slightly different and the pomegranate pattern was carved on it.
If the guess is correct, it should be prepared for Qi Fujin.
Wu Fujin was stunned, looking at the box of jewelry in his hand, showing a rare hint of bewilderment.
I think this is the first time I have seen such big gold jewelry.
Her set is filigree pearl jewelry with a lotus pattern.
In fact, the gold is good, it is solid inside, and the filigree used on the outside does not look bulky. Although the inlaid pearl is not an east pearl, it is a south pearl about the size of a little finger.
It was a gift from my mother-in-law, so I should wear it all the time, but this look is gorgeous and huge, obviously not something that can be worn every day.
