Ninth Prince's Mansion, back room.
Shu Shu had woken up and was looking at the boxes in front of her.
Unlike Brother Jiu who valued Haizhu, she valued another kind more.
"Huoshan Dendrobium, the first of the nine kinds of fairy grass!"
Shu Shu looked at this and said: "This is very precious. This is a favor to my elder brother."
The nine kinds of immortal grass are mentioned in "Tao Zang", including Huoshan dendrobium, Tianshan snow lotus, Sanliang ginseng, 120-year-old polygonum multiflorum, sixty-year-old Poria cocos, deep mountain wild Ganoderma lucidum, submarine pearl, Cordyceps sinensis, and Congrong.
What my eldest brother gave me today were four of them.
That Congrong is the goblin the elder brother calls him.
Brother Jiu thought thoughtfully and said: "Eldest brother must have thought of my sister-in-law, so I gave these to you, and said that I wanted to please you."
Shu Shu sighed: "It would be great if my sister-in-law is still here."
As the eldest brother, he will inevitably have a second wife in the future, but it is different from his original wife.
Brother Jiu, who was nearby, began to settle small accounts again and said, "Have birthday gifts been sent everywhere? Have you left any?"
Reciprocity.
If others don't want to "come", then they won't "go" here.
Shu Shu said helplessly: "This is only the third day. Only gifts from close relatives, and gifts from outside will not be sent until the 'full moon'."
Also, because they have made it known here that they don’t do “full moon” and “hundred-year-old” events, it’s hard to give gifts to people who are more distant from you. They can only wait to “grasp the week” in the future, or give them when you meet them. Preparatory ceremony.
Brother Jiu thought about the names of the three children and complained in a low voice: "Feng Sheng is just paying off Akdan. What does Nigu Zhu mean? I shouted outside and estimated that there were several Ni Guzhu. This name is too big." It’s so tacky…”
In addition, the child's grandfather's name sounds "Seventy", and the granddaughter's name is "Sixty", which always feels weird.
Shu Shu pinched Brother Ninth's waist and said: "Don't you get the advantage and do it well! There are so many families, and there are more than 20 grandsons and granddaughters of the emperor in front of us. We are the only ones who are given nicknames." …”
Brother Jiu hummed softly: "I didn't say anything else, I just think that Khan Ama is partial. My grandson's name is good, but when it comes to my granddaughter, it's a bit confusing."
Shu Shu said: "I think this name is good. It sounds better than the common flowers and plants."
The meaning is good.
For girls, it is a great blessing to live as long and honorably as the Queen Mother.
Brother Jiu was confused.
Is the Queen Mother considered lucky?
I became a widow in my twenties!
He has no biological flesh and blood of his own.
That is to say, Khan Amma is filial. Otherwise, it depends on the faces of his children and grandchildren. Wouldn't it be very pitiful?
But these words, he was afraid that it would be unlucky to say them, and he was also afraid that Shu Shu would be worried, so he changed his words and said: "Wait a hundred days for the three little ones, and it will be time for Xiao Shiba to 'catch Zhou'. Their uncle and nephew are one year apart." , I will also have someone to take care of me in the study from now on."
Too long term.
Shu Shu felt like she couldn't think clearly in her head.
What she wants now is to make her second brother fatter and catch up with his brother and sister in weight quickly.
Just as he was thinking about it, Nanny Qi said at the door: "Fu Jin, the second elder brother is awake."
Shu Shu looked over and said, "I must be hungry. I only ate for half a quarter of an hour at noon."
Aunt Qi put the second elder brother in Shu Shu's arms, glanced at the ninth elder brother next to her, and hesitated whether to let go of the curtain.
Shu Shu looked up at her and urged her.
Aunt Qi then lowered the curtain to cover Shu Shu.
Brother Jiu felt uncomfortable when he saw this, and complained: "There's no one else around, why do you want to put down this trouble?"
Shu Shu hummed softly: "Isn't it true that I'm shy? Isn't it true that when I reach nirvana, my money is no longer valuable, and I can't be ashamed if I open my arms?"
Open your arms...
Brother Ninth felt his throat was a little dry.
He really wanted to make a joke, but he couldn't say anything in front of Grandma Qi, so he coughed lightly and said: "I didn't tell you, wasn't it because I was afraid that your arms would be sore while holding the child, so I wanted to help? "
Shu Shu thought for a moment and couldn't let Brother Jiu sit idle.
Now that Ninth Brother doesn't have to go to the Yamen, it's a good time to cultivate the relationship between parents and children.
Shu Shu said: "It's just these few days, I don't need your help. If I have time, you might as well help me see a few more children and take notes."
】
"Notes? Note what?"
Brother Jiu asked excitedly: "Is it breastfeeding time? Or what?"
Shu Shu said: "Remember how many times you slept, how many times you woke up, how many times you ate, and how many times you had diarrhea. In this way, you can have a comparison. If there is any irregularity that day, you can know something is wrong and call the imperial doctor to see it. Look, otherwise, they are still young and would not know if they were not feeling well..."
After hearing this, Brother Jiu thought deeply and said, "This is a good method. I will remember it well. The imperial doctor's Ping An pulse is also requested every day. Don't worry about this..."
Shu Shu added: "Have you thought about how to arrange the three children after confinement and moving back to the main courtyard?"
Brother Jiu shook his head honestly and said, "I never thought about putting it in the house on the west side like this one?"
Shu Shu shook her head and said, "It's inconvenient."
The west corner is Shu Shu's study, which is also the inner study of Brother Jiu. On weekdays, the couple spends most of their time here.
If a few children were placed in the west room, eating, drinking, and eating all day long, with a bunch of nannies and nannies around them, the study would not be usable, and the people in the upper room would be too messy.
"Then what should we do? Are we still placed in the back building?"
Brother Ninth said.
Shu Shu hesitated a little, which one was better, the back building or the east and west wings in the main courtyard.
When it comes to distance, the east and west wings are definitely closer. But when it comes to comfort, the north room like the back building is naturally better.
Shu Shu thought for a while and said: "We'll see when the time comes, otherwise we can stay in the back building and let Aunt Qi and Xiao Chun lead the people here!"
Then all she needs to do is make more trips.
After hearing this, Brother Jiu hesitated and said: "There are differences between men and women. How about we take Da Gege to the front? Then we will move the study to the West Room, and clear out the East Room and Nuan Pavilion for Da Gege..."
Although he was not satisfied with Da Gege's appearance, a daughter was a daughter, not the same as a son.
Daughters should be more pampered so that they can develop this kind of tolerance.
This is not only seen from his wife, but also from his sisters.
Gege, who was pampered by her elders, has a more cheerful temperament and will not be bullied.
Put next to her, Gege, who had not been pampered and had grown up, looked dull and uneasy.
Shu Shu glanced at Brother Jiu and said, "I'd better be an unbiased Ama..."
Brother Jiu smiled and said, "Isn't this just following my father-in-law? It's a good tradition in our family that daughters are more valuable."
Shu Shu said: "It's not about this, just try to keep it the same on the surface."
As she said that, she looked down at the second elder brother in her arms and said, "It's okay now. If they are older in a few years and notice our different treatment, they will feel aggrieved."
Today is already the third day after his birth, and the second elder brother’s eyebrows have finally opened up.
Shu Shu took a closer look. Her eyebrows were like those of Ninth Brother, but her eyes were bigger than Ninth Brother's, just like her almond-shaped eyes.
this……
Looks like Concubine Yi...
It happened that the second elder brother had finished his milk. He opened his eyes and looked in the direction of Shu Shu, looking a little dazed.
Shu Shu put down her clothes, picked up the curtain, and said, "Come here and see if you look like your empress..."
It was also the first time that the ninth elder brother saw the second elder brother open his eyes. He did not nod immediately. He glanced at Shu Shu, then at the second elder brother, and said: "Like my empress, and like you..."
Shu Shu pointed to her lips and chin again and said, "This is more like a queen..."
Brother Jiu glanced at it several times, but couldn't tell the difference...

Mounted with a yellow flag, Ma Qi's mansion.
In the study, Ma Qi sat behind the desk.
He has been hesitating about one thing since last year, and today he finally made a decision.
After a while, there was movement outside.
"Everyone, come in..."
Ma Qidao
In response, several people came in one after another, including the Fulton brothers.
Ma Qi pointed to the stool opposite the desk and said, "Everyone, sit down!"
Several people were seated.
There were ten sons in total under Ma Qi's knees. The second son, the fourth son, and the eighth son died in infancy, and there were still seven sons left.
The three people in front of me are the oldest among them and have already married.
Ma Qi said: "The tree has big branches. It's been more than a year since the fifth daughter-in-law joined the family. It's time to separate the family..."
The fifth child is Fude, the third-class bodyguard of the eighth prince's house.
Having said this, Ma Qi looked at his eldest son Fulton and said, "Nowadays, many families outside have changed their rules and asked the eldest son to stay at home. Our family has not changed, and we still follow the old Manchu customs..."
That is to divide Fulton as well.
Fulton is not surprised. Most of the families who have changed their rules are those with titles and inherited positions.
The titles and worldly positions of the Fucha family were in his fourth uncle's room, and had nothing to do with their room. It didn't matter whether the eldest son stayed in the family or not.
Fulton said: "My son will obey all orders from Ama."
To be honest, the older ones have already benefited from their family's fortunes and are not at a disadvantage compared to their younger brothers.
Everyone looked at Fu Qing.
Fu Qing is a concubine and will be separated sooner or later. It doesn't matter, he nodded and said: "My son also listens to Ama's orders..."
When Lao Wu Fude arrived, he was a little outspoken and asked: "Ama separated the family because of his son's previous request?"
As early as when Fu Qing and Fu De had their own errands, Ma Qi had warned his sons that guards were guards and not to get involved with others, nor to encourage the princes and elder brothers they served to compete with each other.
When Fulde came back today, he went to the study to look for Ma Qi and talk about the eighth prince's difficulties.
Now not only the emperor punished the eighth prince, but other princes and princes were also dissatisfied with the eighth prince.
The only one who can help the eighth elder brother get out of his predicament is the ninth elder brother.
If Ninth Prince could be more tolerant at this time and make peace with the Eighth Prince brothers, he would be able to solve the Eighth Prince's dilemma.
When people talk about Ninth Brother outside, they only praise him.
That's a win-win situation.
Fulde felt that as the prince's teacher, his own Arma could be a mediator.
Ma Qi didn't say anything at the time, but within half an hour, he called everyone over again.
Ma Qi glanced at his sons and said: "You are getting older. From now on, you will have your own responsibilities and your own positions. If you want peace, you can stick to the golden mean. If you want a future, it's not all your faults. You don't need to be tied together. …”

It's seventh, and I haven't opened up the next eight or ninety, so I'm asking for a guaranteed monthly pass!
