After leaving Di'anmen, Brother Seven stopped the carriage.
His guards followed behind with their horses.
The seventh elder brother was afraid that the ninth elder brother would be impatient, so he said: "Shengjia should return to the palace before the end of the month. There are only a few days left..."
Brother Jiu nodded and said, "I'm not in a hurry. It's not like you're taking money out of my wallet. Even if it's too much or too little, it won't reach my pocket!"
This is true.
He was really annoyed when he first learned that the accounting department was a monolithic group and treated his immediate boss like a fool.
But when I look back and reflect on this time, I feel much calmer.
He was appointed as the General Manager of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It was said that it lasted for three years, but it was actually only one and a half years.
He's used to being greedy there, so it's not like he's trying to trick him.
What they want in Hu Nong is the person in this position.
In the royal family, Prince Gong also supervised the Ministry of Internal Affairs in his early years. If you think about it, you will know that it must be the same lake alley.
When he returned to the Prince's Mansion and went to the back room to look at the children, Brother Jiu felt a little itchy.
The second brother lacks a title!
If he were to be granted the title of Baylor, then the boss would directly attack Beizi, and the second child would have to take the test to be crowned. Only the "three outstanding ones" would be crowned the second-class general of the country, and even the eighth-level prince would not be able to get it.
He sighed.
Shu Shu saw him drooping and said, "Are you still thinking about the Accounting Department?"
Brother Jiu shook his head happily and said, "I don't want to think about it anymore, it's boring!"
He looked down upon the merits of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
He worked out several stalls in front of him, such as "imperial medicine", gold-making equipment, and a cashmere factory.
The results of it?
The third one hasn't seen any money yet, and the first two have accumulated less than 100,000 taels of silver.
But compared with what was done by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, it was nothing. !
What a joke.
Fortunately, the chicken-blood stone was his own business, so the emperor's father would get a share of the profits and no one from the Ministry of Internal Affairs would get his hands on it.
So is the one in Xiaotangshan.
"I'm thinking about what else I can do to bypass the Ministry of Internal Affairs and directly exchange for credit?"
Brother Jiu touched his chin and said.
"It's the kind of person who can't hide his achievements and doesn't let others take advantage of him. He can replace Baylor with the county king..."
Brother Jiu's eyes flickered and he thought about it.
Shu Shu listened, and her heart moved.
Looking towards the rear building.
Smallpox in the capital comes in waves.
Now the royal heirs have become accustomed to vaccination.
But the risk of variola is much higher.
Shu Shu cannot experiment with the children's safety.
We can start working on smallpox.
It’s just that Brother Jiu is not in the right mood right now.
He seemed depressed and excited at the same time, which was not the time to talk about serious things.
Also, Shu Shu had selfish motives.
Now she is no longer alone, but has three children.
She couldn't put all her hopes on Brother Ninth.
In that case, if one day the couple's love breaks down, will she, Jiu Fujin, be as comfortable as a duck in water in front of the royal elders as she is now?
Will not.
In the eyes of the elders, she is good because she is good to her ninth elder brother.
When the relationship between husband and wife is weak, this is only embarrassing.
As for "auspiciousness", it is also a castle in the air.
She is a woman, her husband is noble and her wife is honorable, so there is no need for icing on the cake, but this merit can be bestowed on her son.
Shu Shu suddenly became energetic.
Since giving birth to three children, she has been a little lost, feeling that her life is chaotic and she can't find her direction.
This has the direction...
Haidian elder brother's office, Baiwangshan dowry Zhuangzi...
And then there are cows on the farm...
Shu Shu didn't say anything else, just said: "I asked my brother in the North Garden what happened? Can we stay here after the Dragon Boat Festival?"
Brother Jiu said: "Ask Sun Jin to go over and take a look. According to the construction schedule, it's almost done now. I just want to let the other side dry the house to avoid moisture backflow."
Shu Shu felt like a mother-in-law.
Even though she had been looking forward to going to Haidian Garden to avoid the sweltering heat in the capital, she was still worried about the inconvenience when thinking about her three children.
Brother Jiu looked at Shu Shu. When he saw her face clearly, he was startled and said, "Why are you sweating so much?"
Shu Shu's face was covered with small beads of sweat.
Shu Shu took the handkerchief and wiped it, and said: "I'm a little afraid of the heat..."
In the final analysis, it is still Qi deficiency.
I said I was afraid of the heat, but actually there was a cool breeze on my waist and abdomen.
The ninth elder brother didn't care about making achievements and said: "My elder brother's place is still small. There are many ready-made gardens next to it. How about we ask around to see which one is idle and spend more money to rent it for a year?"
Shu Shu couldn't help but smile after hearing this.
Those who can be around Changchun Garden are either from this prince's palace or that Duke's palace.
They are juniors and cannot speak at all.
Besides, with the noble clan, who needs the money?
Asking for money is like a slap in the face, and I'm afraid no one will pay attention to them.
After Brother Ninth finished speaking, he also thought of this and said, "It would be great if Nelfu was still here!"
They were the nephews of the family. At that time, Nerfu "dedicated" the land in the North Garden and replaced it with another piece of land, which was five miles away from the northeast corner of Changchun Garden.
That became the new garden of Pingjun Prince's Mansion.
In the past two years, the Queen Mother's North Garden has been under construction, and construction over there has been ongoing, and it will be completed in about the same time.
It is a pity that the King's Garden was completed and Nerfu died.
Leaving Nersu alone in the inner court made it difficult for Ninth Prince to speak.
If someone who didn't know saw it, they would think that they were targeting the private property of Pingjun Prince's Mansion.
"We can't delay any longer. Let Cao Shun go back and ask around to see how to replace the land. If it doesn't work, let's build one in Baiwang Mountain first to use as a countermeasure..."
Brother Ninth said.
Shu Shu thought about it and thought that she could simply repair one at Baiwang Mountain.
"We can just build a small courtyard. The garden will be left alone first, and we will wait until the brothers above finish it. Is it possible that in a few years the emperor will grant the garden directly?"
Kangxi was a loving father. In his early years, perhaps he gave half of his favor to the prince and half to the older sons; as he got older, he still showed fraternity.
That's pretty much the same meaning.
The prince has a west garden, and the other princes and elder brothers will also have gardens, but they will have to wait a few years.
By the time it was lunch time, before the table was set, there was movement outside.
It was Brother Ten who sent Wang Ping'an to deliver the food.
Wang Pingan was holding a food box in his hand, which contained two bowls of steaming dishes, one was boiled fish fillets, and the other was stewed tofu with fish roe.
This dish looked familiar to Shu Shu. It was a dish from the Second School.
Later, they opened a restaurant at the front door and served a lot of spicy dishes.
Wang Ping'an said: "Our master said that Baiweiju is very popular, and now the restaurants in the inner city have begun to use Baiweiju dishes..."
Shu Shu gestured to the walnuts and rewarded them.
It was hot and she had lost her appetite, so she wanted to eat something heavy.
There are not many chili peppers in the boiled fish, which is more in line with the taste of Beijing people.
After all, in the capital city, there were originally only five flavors: sweet, sour, bitter, salty, and fresh, but no spiciness at all.
This slightly spicy taste is just right, even Brother Jiu can eat it.
Instead of bean sprouts, the fish fillets are placed with magnolia slices, which elevates the quality of the entire dish.
Not only is the boiled fish fillet delicious, but the stewed tofu with fish roe is also delicious. The addition of fat and lean ham meat adds a special salty aroma to the taste.
The couple devoured the two bowls of food.
Seeing that Shu Shu had a good appetite, Brother Jiu said, "Why don't we send people to various restaurants outside to order food tomorrow? It's also good to change the taste and eat two more bites."
Shu Shu shook her head and said: "It's better to eat the good food while it's cooked. I'm going to be pregnant soon, so let's go to a restaurant to eat."
Last year it was the fifth prince and his wife who went to the restaurant, but this year it was the tenth prince and his wife.
Shu Shu felt that she should not be called "Shu Shu" and did not wake up.
When it comes to delicious food in the capital, she only thinks about opening a restaurant and making a few small bucks, and her life is not relaxing enough.
Visiting the store and checking in is the right way to open up the world of food.
Thinking like this, she said to Brother Jiu: "When we come back from Changchun Garden, it's time to go out. Then let's go to Nancheng for a walk. I heard that there are many guild halls there, and some specialize in provincial flavors. The restaurant..."
That was the predecessor of the Beijing-based restaurant.
More than three hundred years later, Shu Shu was a frequent visitor to Sichuan Office.
In Sichuan, there are flowers, fragrance, blessings...
Who doesn’t want to have a Gungun...
It's just that the national treasure is still named "芲", commonly known as the panda. It has not yet retreated to the Qinling Mountains and Sichuan, and is still scattered in the Yangtze River Basin.
Shu Shu was slightly moved and restrained her desire.
That's a bear, not a cat.
If we really want to bring them to the capital and raise them in captivity, the process of domestication will be accompanied by blood and killing, so we should be safe with each other.
When it was noon, Haha Zhuzhu, the twelfth brother, sent four more live fish.
Two grass carp and two black fish.
In the evening, we continued to eat fish, and the only thing we ate was grilled fish.
I made two pieces, more than a kilogram, and sent them to Ning'antang. I made grilled fish with perilla flavor.
The couple ate about two kilograms of it, which tasted like minced garlic.
"Twelve brother is good. I will bring more food later. The dining room in the fifth house is not complete..." Shu Shu said.
The ninth elder brother thought about the twelfth elder brother's efforts to save money, and said thoughtfully: "It's so strange, it's also an instigation, why does the third elder brother know that everyone knows? Twelveth here, too It’s enough to deduct, the Fifth Institute has never seen the example of other elder brothers’ institutes, and has never rewarded them all, but I didn’t hear anyone criticizing the twelve in the palace earlier..."
Shu Shu thought for a while and said: "It should be that the twelfth brother has an old man arranged by Grandma Su Ma around him, who can shock him and no one will chew his tongue."
Brother Jiu nodded and said, "It should be so. We lived next to each other before and rarely heard news from the Fifth Institute."
After resting for the night, Brother Jiu couldn't hold it in anymore and complained to Shu Shu: "I have been thinking for two days, wondering which family the Gao family is from. After all, after all these years, I went to several places. The Old Brand Prince Mansion came to think about it, and the only remaining ones were a few princes from Shangsanqi, but they didn’t expect that they were actually from Qianqing Palace..."
"Earlier, I wanted to be content with what I have. I worked as an errand for the Ministry of Internal Affairs and opened up sources every now and then. The credit was not big, but I could make a lot of money. My grandmother knew it well. Now that I see it, it's a joke. I'm so sentimental. The wrapping man has gone to be the shopkeeper..."
Brother Ninth said dullly.
Shu Shu stroked his back, but her mind relaxed.
What Brother Ninth saw was only the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
She thought of the former government offices.
That is the enlarged version of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
The Eight Banners' military merit is the most important, but those who have transferred to civilian jobs can no longer expect military merit, and the rest is to make money.
The first signs of corruption are the corruption of the Eight Banners...
