Brother Jiu just came to visit his parents-in-law through Yuzi. Since the Jueluo family was all ready, he naturally had no other objections and just said: "Fu Jin has prepared some makeup. I will wait until the big day to make an order and give it to the Zhang family." Add it as you go.”
The Zhang family is Han Chinese and is not qualified to buy houses and shops in the inner city.
Shu Shu discussed with Brother Jiu and asked people to inquire in front of the Imperial College to buy a small courtyard. It didn't need to be too big. It didn't matter whether it was one entrance or two entrances. When it was time to add makeup, he would add it to Miss Zhang. I would try it when I got there. In this year, it will be convenient for the Zhang family brothers and nephews to come to Beijing to take the exam.
If you rent it out on weekdays, you will also get a share of the income.
Previously, the couple planned to help Fu Song buy a house as a new house in the border area of Xianglan Banner, but Qi Xi and Jue Luo refused.
Here in the Dutong Mansion, a three-story house has been prepared in Zhenghongqi, and it is under Fusong's name.
That one was for Fu Song to build a new house.
If it were all left to my sister and brother-in-law, it would be too shameful for them to act like Ama and Enie.
Shu Shu didn't argue with her parents, but she didn't intend to watch in vain.
She had left a shop for Fusong before, which was a clothing store on Gulou Street. It was not included in the dowry list and it was one of her private properties.
But the shop was very small, with only two storefronts, and the rent collection was limited, so I thought of adding another house.
Brother Ninth had no objection.
Jueluo Shi knew how to relax and said: "Don't be too dazzling, you and your wife have already helped Fusong too much."
Brother Jiu said generously: "He is not an outsider either."
As he said that, he turned to look at Zhu Liang and said: "You brothers are the same. Your sister said that they are all prepared in the same way..."
At that time, if the shop and house are not fully purchased, we will directly use money to make up for it.
Zhu Liang shook his head hurriedly and said: "No, no need..."
Brother Jiu smiled and said: "Now your sister talks about fairness all day long, for fear that she will be unfair to the three children. In the future, the children will be sad when they grow up. She will treat the younger ones the same way, and she will treat your brothers the same way."
Zhuliang stopped talking.
Jueluo Shi looked at Brother Jiu's taking care of everything and was silent.
Although she knew that her daughter's bank, restaurant and pastry shop were doing well, she didn't spread the money like this.
Jueluo felt that he would have to discipline the girl next time we meet.
There is no need to overstate what you say, just do what you can.
Speaking of which, this favor becomes a matter of course.
Even if the younger brothers have a conscience and care about affection, as a brother-in-law, they just think they should get a share...

In the Ninth Prince's Mansion, Shu Shu sneezed.
Now that the ninth elder brother is gone, I feel much more at ease with just my sisters-in-law and sisters-in-law.
Shu Shu asked someone to prepare lunch.
It has been more than four months since Sifujin was born. After the period of eating, there are no taboos in eating, including meat and fish.
Shu Shu asked the kitchen to make the sweet dishes she remembered yesterday, sweet and sour pork ribs, shredded milk tofu, red dates stuffed with rice cakes, cherry meat, and added two spicy seasonings, spicy shredded pork, boiled fish, and Two side dishes, Xianggu rape and scallops and cabbage.
The staple food is lotus leaf cake and Sixi Shaomai.
The three aunts and sisters had lunch happily.
After eating and feeling sleepy, Shu Shu's eyelids became a little heavy, Si Fujin's companion also started to yawn, and Jiu Gege stood up to leave.
Two sisters-in-law, one is in confinement and the other is pregnant, both of them are unbearable.
Shu Shu did not entertain any guests, but asked the kitchen to prepare a few side dishes for Jiu Gege to take back to the palace as a tribute to the Queen Mother.
It was getting warm at noon, and Shu Shu also wanted to bask in the sun, so she sent it out in person.
Si Fujin and Jiu Gege didn't stop her, so they just let her go.
Shu Shu was already looking forward to the end of the month and said, "It will be fine then. I'm so exhausted. After the Dragon Boat Festival, it's time for Grandma Huang to go to the garden again. We'll go there too..."
Si Fujin nodded and said: "It's good to go there, Haidian is cool..."
Jiu Gege thought about the new sixth residence next to the North Garden, and said with anticipation, "It would be a good relationship. If we live next to the new elder brother's residence, we can see each other all day long..."
It's not too far away to live in Laowusuo, just walk two or three miles more.
Shu Shu glanced at her and couldn't help but worry: "We'll just pay it off this year. Next year it will be inconvenient for my sister to enter the garden. Is there any open space next to the North Garden?"
Jiu Gege couldn't help but feel confused after hearing this. He had never thought about this before.
Yes, the princess who surrendered is different from the princess in the palace.
When the time comes, she will go to Haidian to escape the summer heat. She will take care of her family and live directly with the imperial grandmother.
Jiu Gege shook his head and said: "I don't know. I only know that the current North Garden is the old garden of Pingjun Prince's Mansion..."
Shu Shu said: "I'll let your Ninth Brother ask later. We haven't allocated the land for marriage yet. It would be convenient if we allocated a piece of land near the North Garden!"
Jiu Gege listened with a bit of expectation.
In the past few years, Shengjia spent more and more time in Changchun Garden, and so did the Queen Mother.
As juniors, they naturally look forward to living with their elders...
After seeing off the two guests, Shu Shu slipped into Ning'an Hall.
Seeing that she was well-dressed, Mrs. Bo said, "Even if you want to leave the house, you can only leave the house at noon. Although it is the beginning of summer, there is still wind in the morning and evening..."
Shu Shu leaned directly on the kang and said lazily: "Don't worry, Mu, I cherish myself the most..."
Mrs. Bo is now in the back room in the morning and afternoon. In addition to staring at Shu Shu, she is just looking at a few little ones.
Shu Shu came over to mention the matter of the big princess's room allocation, and she also mentioned the matter of the three children going to bed at the same time.
"Now that I eat a lot, I wake up more. I have to get up in two hours at most to nurse, and I have to take care of each other without stopping. As a result, I sleep less. By the end of the month, I will still be pregnant. Let’s move to the main courtyard first…”
Shu Shu told the reason.
Mrs. Bo frowned after hearing this and said, "What are you doing moving forward? Just move over here. Do you think you dislike me?"
Shu Shu said unhappily: "If you say these words that hurt people's hearts, can't it be because I feel sorry for Ah Mou? Such a big child is causing trouble. Just wait until he is one year old and becomes more sensible, and then he can move over!"
Mrs. Bo hummed softly and said: "What is filial piety? Being filial is filial piety. It only takes half a year of work. Why bother with the children in vain? I have such a big yard here, with about twenty rooms in front and back, how can I make noise?" "
When the time comes, it just happens to be placed in the backyard, where the nanny and wet nurse can be accommodated.
Shu Shu was still unhappy and said: "It's not like you don't know about Da Gege's loud voice. It really makes you howl when you eat and poop. It's summer again and it's hard to close the windows, so why aren't you noisy?"
Mrs. Bo waved her hand and said, "Stop being so nagging. If you insist on moving to the front, then I'll go home then. There's no need for me anyway!"
Shu Shu: "..."
Actually threatening people?
No wonder you are talking about old children, old children...
Mrs. Bo turned her face and ignored her.
Shu Shu thought about it and decided that after the Dragon Boat Festival, she would go to live in a garden in Haidian. Then the whole family would go there and they would be in the same courtyard again.
I guess I won't come back until it gets cooler, maybe early August or something.
Forget it, just move it this way.
Shu Shu took Madam Bo's arm and said: "I agreed before I was born that A Mou would put me first, so don't be brave. If you talk when you are tired, Da Gege will not save you." Child of the heart.”
Madam Bo's expression turned around, she glanced at Shu Shu, and said, "Don't talk to children like that. Only children who cry can be worried. If you feel uncomfortable, you can also remind them. This is a good and filial child!" "
Shu Shu snorted lightly, feeling that her position was in danger.
It's only been a month and a half, and the little ancestor seems to be competing with me for favor.
In a few years, I will probably move further back...

Outside Efang Village in Wanping County, people are holding tents.
Kangxi was summoning his ministers to discuss the upcoming trip.
Because there were so many people leaving Beijing this time, the journey today was a bit chaotic.
It is not winter moon travel now, it is early summer, and half of the seedlings have grown in the ground.
The accompanying officers and soldiers can walk on small roads, but they are strictly prohibited from ravaging the seedlings.
There were also the accompanying deacons, servants, etc., as well as walkers, which made the team move slowly.
It's not that these people don't have mounts, either mules or donkeys, they just don't ride because they're afraid that the holy driver will look disgraceful to them.
It's not necessary, it's not a siege, requiring horseback riding and archery, just walking instead.
There is also no need to organize the trip according to the Eight Banners' teams.
You can march separately, and you don't have to follow the holy team all the way, which will waste time.
All the great scholars and the Eight Banners who accompanied him received the oral instructions and went down to deliver the message.
The eldest brother is not here, so he takes the clan disciples to sit in front of the Eight Banners camp.
Kangxi said to his thirteenth elder brother: "Go to Fushan and tell him to order two guards. Tomorrow morning you can go ahead and go to Wangjiakou to inspect the preparations for the imperial boat..."
Brother Thirteen agreed and went out to find Fushan.
Kangxi looked at his fourth brother and motioned for him to sit on the chair next to him.
His face looked a little ugly and he looked at the table.
On the paper, there is a confession written by the Crown Princess.
The Crown Princess confessed that she failed to restrain the people in Yuqing Palace, which caused the Li family of the palace lady to spread rumors to slander Qi Fu Jin and Jiu Fu Jin.
However, she also mentioned that the reason was that her pulse was leaked, which caused the Li family to have delusional thoughts and wanted to "value the mother to the son", which made the Li family move to Fujin.
Now that the Crown Prince has few grandchildren and is from a humble background, the Emperor is requested to choose another beautiful girl from the Eight Banners as the Crown Prince's maiden to give birth to the Crown Prince.
Of course, the emperor also knew about the gossip in the past two months.
Kangxi knew better.
He also knew that the Tong family in Shengjing sent people to Beijing and invited the nuns released from the palace for the sake of the Tong family's girls who were preparing for the draft.
The Tong family is a descendant, and according to Grace, the girls from both the Tong Guowei brothers were exempted from selection by Grace.
The Tong family now raises several granddaughters and cousins under Longkodo's name, but their household registration has not been changed.
This is for the draft next spring...
Kangxi glanced at his fourth elder brother and said, "Do you still have correspondence with Longkodo?"
After hearing this, Brother Si looked a little hesitant and did not answer immediately.
Kangxi looked at him and said, "What did the letter say?"
The fourth elder brother lowered his eyes and said: "I asked Enie about the two properties under his name back then, and I want to borrow a house in Beixinqiao..."
