Brother Jiu’s hands are itchy.
He couldn't hold it back, took out the hand mirror from his purse, opened it and handed it to Third Brother.
The third elder brother looked at himself inside and felt that his eyebrows were a little treacherous.
Brother Jiu whispered: "Look, he's just holding back his bad looks..."
The third elder brother immediately straightened his face and restrained himself.
The small movements of the two caught Kangxi's attention.
The third elder brother laughed twice, took the mirror from the ninth elder brother, and said: "These eyes are dry and uncomfortable. Let me take a closer look..."
Brother Jiu curled his lips and did not expose him. He only reminded: "Return it to me after reading. These are a pair of small mirrors, which are my dowry of Fujin."
They are all made of roses, one is a flower bag, the other is in full bloom, they are also a pair.
The couple is alone.
After hearing this, the third elder brother was so disgusted that he pushed it to him and said: "Okay, after reading it, I will give it back to you..."
Brother Jiu took it, wiped it with a handkerchief, and put it away.
When the third elder brother saw this, he also felt that his hands were itchy.
Kangxi felt relieved when he saw how close the two were.
The third elder brother is also consistent with his words. Although he is more like an older brother than the boss, and sometimes he is competitive in front of his younger brothers, but he doesn't hold grudges, which is not bad.
Some small calculations are just small calculations, not bad-hearted.
Brother Ninth Brother is not forgiving with his words, but he is also soft-hearted and thinks of brotherhood.
What's going on with the third elder brother and the prince?
What he said just now was so obvious that he was clearly trying to provoke Brother Ninth...
Apart from being drunk, are there any other issues?
Or Concubine Rong, what did you say before?
Kangxi was unsure and was already planning to ask someone to keep an eye on his third brother.
The third elder brother had no idea that he came over to "gossip" about the family affairs and really attracted the attention of the emperor's father.
After walking out of Qingxi Bookstore with Brother Ninth, he wanted to complain, but after thinking about Brother Ninth's bad temper, he endured it and said: "Didn't that He Yi be dismissed for neglecting his duties before? You still have so many worries. What to do? It’s not like it’s contaminated with Hesheli, so you can’t touch it?”
Brother Jiu thought that today the two brothers were unanimous in speaking to the outside world in Beizi Mansion, so he kindly reminded: "Third brother, that is the crown prince. Even if you are dissatisfied, don't show it in front of Khan Ama. Hold it in your heart, The prince is also a king, and if he is disrespectful to the king, how can Khan Ama tolerate it?"
The third elder brother shut up and looked at the ninth elder brother with surprise: "Okay, old nine, you can actually think of all this?"
Brother Jiu hummed softly: "Brother is not a fool!"
Before, he was far away from the imperial court and couldn't see the emperor's father's behavior. Can't he still see it now?
This can be regarded as effective.
Pretending to be a well-behaved person.
Pretend to be a good person.
If you don’t pretend in private, you have to pretend in front of the emperor.
The brothers talked and dispersed when they arrived at Beitou.
It was almost dinner time, and both brothers were very hungry.
In the main room of the North Fifth House, the dining table has been set up.
Shu Shu was also taking a shower and changing clothes. She was wiping her hair with a walnut while leaning forward.
Since her confinement, her hair care has started again.
After washing your hair, massage apple cider vinegar into your hair and leave it on your hair for a quarter of an hour before washing it off.
This makes the hair tips more shiny.
Seeing Brother Jiu coming back, Shu Shu sat up.
She is hungry too.
On the dining table were rice and water, two plates of braised pork, and two plates of mixed vegetables.
The couple had a meal.
Shu Shu thought of the duck she ate the day before yesterday.
In addition to eating, there is also duck down.
How could you miss this?
Last year, she asked someone to make eiderdown cushions because they couldn't be used directly as clothes and had a smell.
"Sir, aren't you going to start a sheep woolen factory in the capital? When?"
Before cashmere is processed, the grease is first cleaned.
This is similar to processing duck down.
Brother Jiu thought for a while and said: "The wool is just sitting in the Tongzhou warehouse. It's time to organize it, mainly the masters. This one has to be hired by Jiangning Weaving."
Shu Shu talked about the duck down and said, "If it works, it will be warmer than cotton and cheaper than leather."
Brother Ninth listened seriously and said, "If that's really the case, duck raising can be added to the Imperial Manor under the Ministry of Internal Affairs."
There are now thousands of ducks in the palace a year, and they are also distributed to the imperial village below.
Shu Shu said: "Next time, let's divide the ducks and have them slaughtered. Keep the duck down and give it a try."
Brother Jiu nodded and said: "No matter what happens outside, let's take care of it ourselves first, and then use it directly in the restaurant. It will also make a fortune."
Where my brother lives, the years are quiet and peaceful.
News in the capital spread quickly.
Not to mention the many people in Beizi Mansion, there are also many in-laws and old friends.
The seventh wife, Dong Eshi, passed away, and the Dutong Mansion took back all the dowry. This all fell into the eyes of everyone.
When a married woman dies and has no biological children, it is common for the dowry to be brought back to her natal family.
But that was Beizi Mansion, and they were not only in-laws with Dutong Mansion, but also cousins.
In a situation like this, wouldn't the Dutong Mansion choose one of the clan girls to fill the house?
Pulling this dowry does not mean breaking off the relationship, but it also looks like breaking off the relationship.
It's rare for someone to inquire about the inside story, and a lot of it is rumored.
There were a lot of gossips, some said that there was chaos in the Beizi Mansion, and some said that Luo was stubborn and could not be a good person.
Here at the Crown Princess's house, some cousins from her mother's family also came over and made small talk, saying that they thought Luo Shi and Shu Shu were not good at motherhood.
Can such a powerful Eni bring up a docile girl?
It turns out that Jiu Fujin was too flattering and overpowered the Crown Princess in front of the elders in the palace.
The princess immediately served tea to see off the guests.
I really can't stand these smart-aleck people.
Have they forgotten that the Dong E family are also their cousins and in-laws?
It is said that the clan daughter is domineering, but she is also the clan daughter.
Qi Fujin also heard about it and arrived at Shu Shu's place that day.
"Ji Fujin and San Ji Fujin over there are both my aunts. Speaking of which, they haven't released the fifth server yet. If they really don't know why, the clan can't just watch..."
This is because the gossip outside is getting more and more intense, and it is talking about seeking wealth and killing people.
Shu Shu said: "Perhaps it's just a guess from outside. In a family like ours, who is going to jump out of the door alone? The nanny and the dowry girl are following. How can they still fall into the trap? Even if one of them is not careful, three of them can still get it. You're not careful, besides, except for the extremely vicious, who would dare to actually harm someone!"
Qi Fujin nodded and said, "That's right. It's just that there are rumors outside that there are noses and eyes, which makes people feel unsure..."
Shu Shu said: "As I said before, you must be on guard against others, and you must not have the intention of harming others. If that Ma family really had done anything, he would have been doomed this time."
Qi Fujin said: "That's true. When people talked about Beizi Mansion before, only good ones were praised. Who would have thought that this reputation would be so bad!"
Shu Shu felt that she deserved it.
If you really behave yourself, even if you have a side wife, you won't be overly flattering.
Qifu Jin said: "I heard that the second brother over there has an aunt named Ma who is also Ma's niece. The eldest son of the second wife was born to that aunt Ma."
Shu Shu was surprised. She had never heard of this mentioned before, and asked, "Is it so chaotic?"
It makes sense to say that the step-wife deliberately promoted the concubine's eldest son and his wife's niece in order to suppress the four legitimate sons in front of her. This is also the way to unite vertically and horizontally.
But why would this good legitimate son take in his concubine’s niece?
Qi Fujin was more informed and said, "It seems that Mr. Bei Zi made the decision. He was probably afraid that the concubine and the legitimate son would not get along, so he 'kicked her off'!"
Saying this, the two sisters looked at each other.
That is to say, men, when they are childish, they are really childish, thinking that a few nests can lead to a pile.
Qi Fujin couldn't help laughing, pointed in the direction of Qingxi Bookstore, and said: "I guess the emperor thinks so too. I heard that there is a niece of Concubine De in the Prince's Palace of Zhijun..."
Shu Shu stuffed a mint candy into her mouth.
Some gossip can be said, and some cannot be said.
Qi Fujin also listened to the advice, stopped talking, and talked about her eldest brother's marriage.
Last year I wanted to talk about Guizhen Gege, but Erhe stopped me later, and the matter of remarrying was delayed.
In the past few days, I have received accurate information.
"It's also a red flag. The red-belted princess from the Jueluo family is really incomparable with Guizhen's princess. I regret it so much. I wish I had made the decision earlier..."
Qi Fujin said, curled his lips and said: "You are treating my eldest brother as a treasure! I have admired Guizhen Gege's character and dowry before, but in fact the eyes are also on the head. If you are picky, Gege will remarry. I It’s strange. This man remarries is an ordinary man, and a woman who remarries has to be picked on. It makes no sense! Even if you are picky, you have to know your identity. Pick down, don’t pick up. Is it okay to be picky? ?”
She was thinking about Sangege, and was worried that others would find fault with Sangege in the future.
Shu Shu said: "Everyone has selfish motives. My aunt just loves her son more. It's not a fault."
How can I be the mistress of the house?
This was just a chat with Qi Fujin in private, but in front of Guizhen Gege and Dong E's family, it was still polite.
Qi Fujin hummed and said, "I'm becoming more nagging, and I'm also starting to pick on people. If I don't change my temper, I'll have an uneasy life in the future."
Qi Fujin's mother was also a clan daughter. She was a descendant of Prince Kang's family. She was a clan daughter without a title. She was also a cousin of the Dong E family.
When she was a child, Shushu often stayed at Nala's house in the backyard, and she was cared for by her cousin.
Seeing Qi Fujin's disgusted look on the outside, Shu Shu advised: "My aunt and I are about the same age as An Ni, and she is about to reach the age of Tian Gui Jue. At this time, her anger is strong, so she needs to be coaxed."
After Qi Fujin heard this, he said seriously: "This... I am sick?"
Shu Shu shook her head and said: "It's not a disease. As long as women have this problem, ask the imperial doctor to prescribe two prescriptions to soothe the liver and regulate qi, and slowly adjust it."
Qi Fujin bit his lip, feeling a little uncomfortable, and said, "I didn't even think of this at first. I saw her always nagging about Na La Ge Ge's pregnancy, and she urged me not to focus on San Ge Ge. , give birth to a legitimate son as soon as possible, and call me a fool, and I still talk back..."
Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite.
It is difficult for outsiders to intervene in the lawsuit between mother and daughter.
Shu Shu said: "It will be fine after these two years. We will have this time in the future."
Qi Fujin said: "Then I need to have a longer memory, so I won't nag you like this and give people a headache..."
