It's not yet noon, and the auspicious time for Jiugege to get married is after sunset. There is still more than half a day to work on.
Everyone sat with him, bored. By noon, when it was almost time for dinner, someone came to invite me.
Concubine Yi sent Peilan to invite Wufujin, Shushu and Shifujin to Yikun Palace. Concubine Hui sent people to invite Qifu Jin and Bafu Jin to Yanxi Palace.
The princess invited Sanfujin to Yuqing Palace. After coming out of the Princess House, Shi Fujin hugged Shu Shu's arm and murmured in a low voice: "After sitting for two hours, my waist is straight." Shu Shu also whispered: "This is because the empress feels sorry for us and takes us over to eat. I'm taking a nap by the way." When the sisters-in-law passed through the imperial garden, Shi Fujin stood at the door of his elder brother's house, and said with a bit of melancholy: "I miss the third house a little..." Shu Shu also looked over there. One glance.
At present, the second house is occupied by Pingjun Wang Nersu, and the third house is still empty. But when next spring comes, Honghui from Sibeile Mansion and Hong Shu from Qibele Mansion enter the palace, and they should live in three houses.
This little brother can live in it. Once the younger brother comes into the palace, the four buildings will have to be repaired. Wufujin looked to the east.
Hongsheng lives there. I didn't think it was anything before, but now Wufujin can't help but worry about gains and losses. He is worried that when the next group of emperor's grandsons grow up, they will no longer have the grace of the emperor's grandson to study in the palace.
When he saw Shu Shu, Wu Fujin felt at ease again. There are many brothers in the upper study who are studying in the upper study, but the eldest son of the Ninth Prince's Mansion, Fengsheng, is not in that group.
There will be grace when you look back. The group arrived at Yikun Palace. Yifei had been waiting for a long time and asked the kitchen to make mutton buns, assorted buns, and chicken soup and tofu pots.
The three sisters had lunch. Concubine Yi had already asked someone to clean up the kang in the west room, so that the couple could take a nap.
Shu Shu went to bed late last night and was already tired. When she lay down, she closed her eyes and fell asleep without choosing a table.
But she was afraid that she had overslept, so she asked Walnut Shenchu to wake her up. When Walnut pushed her awake, she was the only one left in the room.
Shu Shu sat up and rubbed her temples. I am sleepy in spring and tired in autumn, and even a good night's sleep is of no use. Walnut had already opened the package he was carrying. Inside there was a big red robe cover, a big red brocade cover, and a pair of red satin embroidered flowerpot-soled flag shoes.
Nowadays, the rule is to dress up like this whether you are welcoming a wife or seeing off a wife. There was a coat mirror in the West Hall. After Shu Shu got dressed, she looked in the mirror and felt very awkward.
Walnut was adjusting the wrinkles on his robe and said, "Fu Jin looks good in red." He looked a little thin when wearing clothes of other colors, but once he wore bright red, his overall appearance improved.
Shu Shu couldn't help complaining: "Who ordered this outfit? It's very annoying." With a hijab, she can directly act as the bride.
When they arrived at Dongci Room, Concubine Yi was having tea and talking with Wu Fujin and Shi Fujin. Seeing Shu Shu dressed up and coming in, Shi Fujin's eyes lit up and he praised: "Sister-in-law Jiu looks good..." Yi Fei also nodded and said: "It's better to wear this color. It looks more energetic and looks brighter." Shu Shu also sat down and said, "It's just a matchmaker's mole and a big smoking pot!" One sentence made everyone laugh.
Not only do matchmakers smoke a lot, but older girls also smoke a lot. Therefore, when the people of Nancheng mentioned the Eight Banners, they also said,
"The banner girl is really weird, she has a big pipe in her mouth." Even among noble people, there are still people who smoke, but there are relatively few of them.
Because I want to participate
The "Eight Flags Draft" was given high hopes by my parents and family, and I was afraid that I would be rejected because my teeth would turn yellow due to smoking. Concubine Yi didn't smoke either, but she remembered that many of the dowries outside had cigarette pouches.
The inner house is boring. Some elderly Banner women did not smoke when they were young, but they still smoke when they get older.
She looked at Wu Fujin and Shu Shu and said: "It's useless to swallow clouds and ride on mist. The emperor has not banned this, but he doesn't recommend it either. Don't do it in the future. Not only will your teeth be yellowed, but your body will also stink." "Wu Fujin and Shu Shu both stood up to listen and agreed in unison.
After glancing at Shi Fujin, Yi Fei said: "Smoking is not popular in Mongolia. This is good. You don't have to learn it when you come to Beijing." Shi Fujin nodded and said, "I don't want to learn it. I have snuff." In fact, snuff is the same as snuff. Dry tobacco pouches were no different, but Concubine Yi was not too preachy.
Just stop there. If she talks too much, the emperor won't be happy. *Yanxi Palace, Dongci Palace.
Concubine Hui and Bafujin were also talking about smoking. Bafujin was addicted to smoking, so he asked the girl to light a pot of cigarettes before taking a nap.
"Why are you so good? Do you think of smoking this?" When Bafujin woke up, Concubine Hui asked with concern.
Although the two were not close, they had been together for three years, and she knew that Bafujin did not smoke before.
Ba Fujin lowered his head and said, "I caught a cold last spring and got rheumatism. I feel uncomfortable when the season changes. Smoking makes me feel better." Concubine Hui sighed and said, "What did the imperial doctor say?"
"The imperial doctor said that it is difficult to remove the root, and that the plaster will have to be applied for a few years." Bafujin said in a dull voice. Now, she already knew how to take care of her body, but it was a little late, and she had several problems with her body.
Three years of marriage not only brought her a loss of face, but also caused her to be riddled with illnesses. Concubine Hui couldn't help but stop him from smoking. She only warned: "If you don't want medicine, you should prescribe the right medicine seriously. You are still young. It will be better for you to take care of yourself for two or three years than to suffer every year in the future." Bafu Jin Yes.
In the back side hall, Qifu Jin also woke up and sat across from noble Dai Jia. Dai Jiagui's mother-in-law is more reserved than Qi Fujin.
Qi Fujin took the initiative to talk about the situation in Qibele House: "The eldest brother has started to learn the rules and will be sent to the study next year. The eldest princess is six years old and has started to learn needlework. The second princess has also started to learn to speak. The third princess has also started to learn to speak." I can hold on to the kang to walk at first, but it's not yet stable. Nala's pregnancy is good, and she should be able to give birth to an elder brother in October..." After hearing this, noble Dai Jia became more and more uneasy, and looked at Qifu Jin, With shame.
When Qi Fujin saw this, he knew it was outside.
The gossip about "loving concubines and destroying wives" spread to noble Dai Jia. She smiled heartily and said: "Mother, don't listen to those people. Master Qi is not that kind of person. Na Lagege is in good health and has the appearance of many children. It's just that his background is too ordinary and there are no officials in the family. In the future, Hongshu and the others will They didn’t look good on several fronts. It just so happened that their left collar was assigned to Master Qi. My daughter-in-law told Master Qi that she could have a job at Baylor Mansion, so Master Qi gave Hongshu’s grandfather the position of shepherd... ..." After hearing this, noble Dai Jia's expression softened a lot.
The shepherd chief, the eighth grade official, is the lowest grade official among the prince's subordinate officials. There is no chief shepherd in Baylor's Mansion, which is to hang people under the Prince Chun's Mansion.
Raising the status of the Nala Gege family would not lead them to get too involved in the affairs of the Baylor House.
"That's good, you are husband and wife, others are nothing..." Dai Jiagui said. It's not that she doesn't regret it.
In the thirty-fourth year of Kangxi's reign, Concubine Hui gave the seventh prince a title and gave him a dozen candidates for Dai Jia to choose.
The noble Dai Jia was afraid that there would be some restless people, so he chose two official women whose fathers and ancestors had no official positions. He also looked at them for a while and saw that they were timid and not frivolous.
But who would have thought that La Gege would be so fertile that in five years she would be about to give birth to her fourth child.
She looked at Qi Fujin and said: "Since you know it well, there is no need to worry. There are early and late fates for women. When it gets warm next year, you can go to Hongluo Temple more often." Qi Fujin nodded and said: "Yes , the daughter-in-law took note of it, and the daughter-in-law is not in a hurry. The same goes for giving her a younger brother and a younger sister when Sangege is older..." * In Yuqing Palace, the Crown Princess entertained Sanfujin once, and the two sisters were busy with the time. Come to Ningshou Palace.
On the way, we passed by Zhongcui Palace. Seeing the silence inside and outside the palace, Sanfujin's mood dropped.
Although the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is normal, she also knows that Concubine Rong and Sanbeile Mansion
"Every glory brings glory, every disgrace brings disgrace." There is also Princess Rongxian, who is about to arrive in Beijing. When the time comes, she will ask Concubine Rong how to answer the couple.
She asked the princess: "Second sister-in-law, you are cold. Our third master is worried about your wife. It is not easy to visit. Can you ask someone to send something in?" Here in Baylor Mansion, two were made for Concubine Rong. A new mink fur cloak and two small fur coats.
After hearing this, the Crown Princess hesitated and said, "I don't know, my concubine's place is guarded by people from the imperial court. Maybe she has to ask for an order." After hearing this, San Fujin felt a little sad in his heart.
How big a sin is it to torture someone like this? This is the virtue of men. Whether they are emperors or ordinary people, they are all masters who like the new and dislike the old.
San Fujin rubbed his handkerchief, feeling a little bored. However, it did give her a heads up.
Go back and ask someone to find out if the girl from the other family's flag has a scholarly family background, is well-read and knows etiquette, and then she will be a princess for the third elder brother.
Tian is one year older than the third elder brother, so she is no longer a young girl. By the time the two of them arrived at Gegesuo, several other princes, Fujin, had already arrived.
Jiu Gege had already put on a full set of wedding clothes, and the makeup on her face was also done up. She looked like a white porcelain doll.
The other three wedding wives also arrived, all dressed up like Shu Shu, and they looked like four big red envelopes side by side.
Prince Jian Fujin, who was familiar with Shu Shu, took Shu Shu's hand and said with a smile: "Come on, I will also be blessed by our Jiu Fujin." Shu Shu said honestly and obediently: "You're welcome..." This one From the natal side, she is Shu Shu's great-aunt; from the royal side, she is the clan aunt.
Prince Jian Fujin smiled and said: "I was the one who gave it to you when you got married. This time it's our turn to give it to you together..." The remaining two ladies of the Duke's Palace and Prince Fujin of Mongolia were not familiar with the palace and were a little cautious. .
Prince Jian Fujin had an exquisite temperament. When he saw this, he said to Shu Shu: "We and I are not outsiders. Let's talk later. I'll greet them first." Shu Shu said hurriedly: "Then you go and do your work." Wait until Prince Jian Fujin After leaving the front, Shi Fujin whispered: "Is Prince Jian Fujin really a Mongolian? I have never seen a Mongolian who can speak so well..." Shu Shu said: "Prince Jian Fujin is a blessed person in the clan. Three sons and four daughters are all married. They are living a happy life and are more outgoing..." Therefore, even if the parents-in-law are gone, Prince Jian Fujin is still here as one of the best candidates in the clan to marry and give away his wife. one.
After all the busy work, it’s time to arrive at the beginning of Youchu. The light rain that had been falling all day finally stopped. The prince and his elder brothers also arrived.
The five wedding sedans arrived at the door of the princesses' house. The fourth elder brother was wearing a red robe, and frost could be scraped off his face.
Shu Shu followed Prince Jian Fujin and acted with Prince Jian Fujin. Jiu Gege was sitting on a chair, with her head covered and her feet stepping on the red carpet, not touching the ground.
Fourth Brother stepped forward and said in a hoarse voice: "Xiaojiu, Fourth Brother will send you out..."
