When Brother Jiu came back, Shu Shu was sending Xiao Chun to Sanfujin to report his funeral.
My uncle is also Sanfujin’s cousin.
Even if the married niece who lives across the room does not accept it, it is only humane reason not to accept it for two days to grieve.
"You are right to listen to my concubine..."
Brother Jiu told Shu Shu what he had learned from Concubine Hui, and then he was worried that she would not be happy and said.
Shu Shu nodded.
Manchuria is inherently docile.
The prince's father died in November of the thirty-third year, and the prince married into the palace in May of the following year, with only half a year between them.
At that time, it attracted a lot of criticism.
If calculated according to Manchu rules, it would not be wrong to serve for a hundred days. However, due to the emphasis on Confucianism, the mourning period has also changed.
The loss of parents is the most severe.
The Crown Princess's wedding date was set in an unruly manner.
However, the prince's wedding had been prepared for several years at that time, and it was still held as scheduled.
So when it was Shu Shu's turn, he had to follow the example and not act too cool.
"In the past few days in Jiangning, I can go out with the other brothers. I can just stay by myself..."
Shu Shu said.
There was Kangxi, a powerful father-in-law, at the top, and she didn't want to tie Brother Jiu to her side.
Brother Jiu waved his hand and said: "If there is any improvement, wait until I have time to go to the cashmere weaving field. The other places are impatient to move..."
Shu Shu glanced at him and said, "Where is the Buddha?"
When he was in Suzhou and Hangzhou before, he seemed very interested.
Brother Jiu glanced at Shu Shu. He was interested because she was around.
What's the point of being left alone?
He looked deep in thought and said, "There is something that I have been thinking about for several days. I am wondering whether I should tell Grandma Huang..."
Shu Shu said: "What's the matter?"
Brother Jiu said, "The Buddhas worshiped in each temple are different. Are the worshipers of each family sincere or not?"
Shu Shu was frustrated and didn't want to use her brain, but she somehow felt that Brother Jiu's words made sense.
Brother Jiu saw that she had listened and said, "The lamps and the amount of sesame oil offered each time are about the same. They are impartial, but they don't value either one. If the Buddha wants the power of faith, then why don't he find someone else?" Blessed by pious people?”
Shu Shu realized it later and hurriedly made a gesture of silence.
Brother Jiu was just talking nonsense to divert Shu Shu's attention. Seeing that she was distracted by grief, he just stopped talking.
Shu Shu gouged out his eyes and said: "You are getting bolder and bolder, talking about the emperor's grandmother!"
Brother Nine changed the subject and said, "Aren't you looking forward to coming to Jiangning first? Cao Shun is a local snake. Is there anything you want to eat or play with?"
Shu Shu shook her head and said, "I'll be vegetarian for a few days..."
Brother Jiu thought for a while and said: "Then I asked Cao Shun to row more fresh fruits..."
Shu Shu thought of the fans Jiu Gege bought when she was in Hangzhou. Jiangning's fans seemed to be very famous, and said: "Don't forget the errand assigned by the emperor. If the elders and Jiu Meimei want to buy something, Jiangning should be the last stop. …”
When the dragon boat leaves Jiangning, it will no longer stop in the middle.
Or you can stay for only one night.
It's really getting hotter today.
It is April now, which is half of May according to the Gregorian calendar, and it is already the beginning of summer.
Brother Jiu said, "Don't worry, with Cao Shun here, Gao Bin can barely make up the numbers..."
When they were in Suzhou before, Gao Bin and his party finally met up with Brother Jiu.
Shifujin’s luggage also arrived.
The ceremony was repeated in a circle.
There is Cao Shun, who is in his twenties, and Gao Bin, who is in the same age group as the ninth elder brother, is a bit unsatisfactory.
Brother Jiu asked Shu Shu, "Was I too impatient at that time? Even if there was a shortage of people, I shouldn't have taken advantage of those who were not on duty?"
Although Cao Shun did not officially serve as an errand, he had been running errands with his uncle Cao Yin for several years and had gained experience.
Brother Jiu is very easy to use and does his best every time he is asked.
Shu Shuke still remembered that Gao Bin would become a capable minister and an expert in river management.
His promotion was in the Yongzheng Dynasty, and he had already become the governor of the river. He did not rely on nepotism to make a fortune in the Qianlong Dynasty.
Shu Shu advised: "I took the initiative to ask for this person, so I just need to be tight-lipped. It's not really inappropriate. There is a gap in age and qualifications between the two of them, so it's not fair to compare them together."
Brother Jiu said, "Anyway, I learn from every experience and gain wisdom. When I need to hire people in the future, I'll just choose the experienced ones!"
Shu Shu looked at him and said nothing.
Among the prince's elder brothers, it is estimated that only the ninth elder brother can employ people in this way.
What I think about is using people’s abilities, not whether they can be conquered or not.
He is only used as a subordinate and has no intention of recruiting disciples, otherwise he would not promote the disciples of the Internal Affairs Office.
At this moment, Xiao Chun came back, and San Fujin came with him.
Shu Shu and Brother Jiu both stood up.
Sanfujin also took off his jewelry and changed into plain clothes.
She nodded to Brother Jiu as a greeting, then took two steps forward, took Shu Shu's hand, and choked with sobs, "Why did the lobby uncle just go?"
As she spoke, tears fell from her eyes.
The grief is heavier than that of Shu Shu, my biological niece.
Shu Shu sighed: "Who said it wasn't the case? I didn't expect it to be this time. Every year after the twelfth lunar month, people will feel at ease for half a year..."
"In the past few years, several clan uncles and clan uncles have passed away. The older generation of them have withered away one after another..."
As San Fujin spoke, his tears fell again.
She was really sad, not just for her uncle, but more for Amma, who was elderly and seriously ill.
Shu Shu felt uncomfortable in her heart. She was still holding back, but she couldn't help but shed tears after hearing these words.
She had just heard the news of her uncle's death. She was half sad and half scared.
It was also my uncle who thought of my parents and aunt.
Brother Jiu was standing by, watching Sanfu improve his luck.
Where can I find such annoyance to humanity?
I finally distracted my wife's attention by rambling here and there, but this time, I felt uncomfortable again.
San Fujin didn't realize it, but kept wiping his tears.
At this time, Wu Fujin and Shi Fujin came after receiving the news.
They also came to trouble Shu Shu.
Seeing San Fujin dressed up like this, I realized that there was another person who was uncomfortable.
Only then did San Fujin stop crying.
Shu Shu thanked everyone.
When I was young, the Queen Mother, the Dowager Princess and the two empresses also sent people to visit Shu Shu.
Bai Yanmo also brought a plate of yogurt cakes and said, "The empress specially sent her slaves to give this to Fujin. If Fujin doesn't have the appetite, just eat two pieces of this..."
Shu Shu personally picked it up and said, "I can't accompany the Emperor's grandmother to worship the Buddha. Can you please help me tell the Emperor's grandmother not to leave me behind when offering lamps?"
Bai Jianmo said, "Don't worry, Fujin. I'll tell you when I get back."
Shu Shu looked at Xiao Chun and said, "Take some money and leave it next to Mo Qi. When the time comes, I will trouble you to add my share..."
The last sentence was said to Bai Moji.
Bai Mo Mo agreed.
Shu Shu added, "It's hot and it's easy to get angry. Can you replace the imperial grandmother's tea with Longjing? It has a cooling property and can relieve heat and heat..."
That was Shu Shu's filial piety when he was in Hangzhou before.
The young couple went to the tea garden and bought ten pounds of tea. When they came back, they didn't share it all. One pound was given to the Queen Mother, half a pound each to the two concubines and the two concubines, four taels each to the two nobles, and there was nothing for the others.
The tea garden is right there. If others are interested, just buy it themselves.
Bai Jianmo took note of it and said: "The empress doesn't like to drink Longjing tea very much. She said that if you add too much tea, it tastes weak, and if you add too much tea, it will be bitter."
Shu Shu thought of Longjing fruit tea, which became popular in later generations.
Unfortunately, the current seasonal fruits are limited, only loquat, mulberry, and cherry. They don’t seem to be suitable for making fruit tea.
She said: "We were in Hangzhou first. Didn't the empress get osmanthus honey there? After the tea had cooled down, she mixed it directly into the tea. It tasted good. Why don't you ask someone to make it and give it to the imperial grandmother to try? "
Bai Jianmo said, "Your Majesty loves to eat the sweet-scented osmanthus nectar. She has to dip a small plate into the pastry for breakfast. I'll drink it with this tea. I'm sure she'll also like it."
After delivering the things, Bai Yanmo left.
Several crickets watched the entire conversation between the two.
San Fujin blinked his eyes. Before, he only knew that the Queen Mother liked Shu Shu and that Shu Shu wanted to be close to the people of Ningshou Palace. He didn't expect that he was so familiar with it.
Is that too flattering?
Where is the prince Fujin too?
Used to do this?
Do you have to take care of your diet and daily life? !
My cousin is really well hidden.
He loves to please his elders.
In fact, she misunderstood.
Shu Shu accompanied the Queen Mother on her southern tour this time, and she was also carrying the errand assigned by Kangxi and Concubine Yi, which was to serve the Queen Mother in her daily life.
It is also because of this that Bai Jianmo answers all questions.
San Fujin looked at Wu Fujin.
It’s not easy to be a sister-in-law either.
The position of this filial granddaughter-in-law was taken away by others.
Wu Fujin knew the inside story, so how could he think so much?
She noticed that San Fujin was looking at her and looked back.
San Fujin then looked away and touched the corners of his eyes with the handkerchief.
Shi Fujin was even more simple-minded and couldn't think of anything else. He just said to Shu Shu, "If Sister-in-law Ninth feels uncomfortable, eat more and go to sleep after eating. You will be much better when you wake up..."
This method is quite unique.
Seeing that what she said was serious, Shu Shu nodded seriously.
At this moment, Jiu Gege also arrived.
Shu Shu said: "Hasn't the fistula been here before? Why is it here again?"
Jiu Gege lived with the Queen Mother, and when Bai Mohe was delivering things, he also passed on Jiu Gege's words.
Jiu Ge took her hand and said, "I was thinking, I have to do it myself, otherwise I will feel uneasy."
She didn't come over first because the Queen Mother, the Dowager and the two concubines lived on the East Road of Zhizao Mansion, while Shu Shu and other princes Fujin lived with the princes on the West Road, separated by the Yamen of Zhizao Mansion.
At present, because the Holy Emperor is stationed here, he is temporarily on the road, and there are no outsiders. However, there are also many ministers from the province waiting to see him, so it is easy to conflict.
Shu Shu shook her hand back and said, "There is no need for these false courtesy between you and me."
Perhaps it was because of his Tong Geng relationship, but also because Jiu Gege read a lot and was more stable than his peers, so the sister-in-law and sister-in-law could talk about everything together.
Although we got to know each other late, we feel like old friends.
San Fujin could only feel sorry when he saw it.
There's no way to learn this. There's no age difference between her and Jiu Gege.
Before Sanfujin and others could say goodbye, another person came from the imperial court.
When Liang Jiugong came over, it turned out that Kangxi personally ordered the palace dining room to prepare a plain banquet for Shu Shu.
Sanfujin was trying to comfort himself just now, but now he couldn't help it.
She also wants this dignity!
