Shu Shu sighed. No one else knows how this dinner came about, so doesn’t she know? It’s because of the bird’s nest mat in autumn.
Shi Fujin had mentioned taking turns to treat guests at that time, and he had no objection. Originally, life in the inner house was boring. There were concubines and children in other people's houses, so they had more to worry about, but here in Shifujin it was even more leisurely.
Even at the housekeeper's place, there are also the eunuch in charge and the nanny of Brother Ten, so Shi Fujin doesn't have much to worry about.
"It's just to kill time. I have agreed with Sister-in-law Seven that we will treat guests in turn, even if it is the younger one. If I find a reason to invite guests again next month, others will not be able to say anything about the ten younger siblings..." Shu Shu said .
After hearing this, Brother Jiu hurriedly said: "Then our family can't use the 'treasure appraisal meeting' as an excuse. We are so stupid. We have to find someone who can accept the gifts, otherwise we will suffer a loss." Shu Shu glanced at him, He lay down again and said, "Okay, let me think about it. Anyway, I can't think of anything else." Brother Jiu really took it seriously and said, "Let me think about it carefully and ask around when I go. What excuse do you use to hold a banquet..." It can only be said that the Prince's Mansion doesn't have many external contacts, and ordinary people's posts cannot be sent here.
Those who can come here are for serious business, such as weddings and funerals. Therefore, the couple really don't know much about these unscrupulous reasons for inviting guests.
The next day is the tenth day of winter. Shu Shu also wanted to pay his respects to the palace and got up early. Brother Ninth didn't stay in bed and got up.
Yesterday he complained that Shi Fujin was ignorant, but today he started to worry about the Tenth Prince's house. Worried that the banquet was not well organized, I hesitated.
He glanced in the direction of Babeizi Mansion and said, "Have you sent the post over there? It's hard to miss. Even if you know that Guo Luoluo is not able to come out right now, you still have to send it." Shu Shu said: "Don't worry, sir. My brother and sister are very attentive this time. They sent a post, but they didn't say anything about it. They also returned a plate of grapefruit and a plate of Buddha's hand. The Crown Princess also wants to say hello today." Brother Jiu felt relieved now. , said: "That's good." Today, Brother Ten was not here, so Shi Fujin did not come to squeeze into Shu Shu's carriage. He waved hello from a distance, and she got on her carriage.
Shu Shu also waved. The corners of Brother Ninth's mouth turned up, he was quite satisfied, he helped Shushu get into the carriage, and started to think of Brother Ten again.
"I'm not going either. What's the point of being alone in Nanyuan? There's no one to keep me company..."
"Don't worry, sir, the thirteenth and fourteenth brothers are here." Shu Shu said. Brother Ninth shook his head and said: "We are all children, and we can't get along with Old Ten..." As he said that, he thought of Brother Eight, frowned and said: "Fortunately, Old Eight doesn't dare to go either." It would be annoying to have Lao Shi by your side..." Shu Shu listened to Brother Ninth's chatter and looked at Si Fujin's carriage in front.
When they come back, the sisters-in-law can come to the Tenth Prince's Mansion together. As for the eighth elder brother... She lowered the carriage curtain and looked at the ninth elder brother.
The brotherhood that I valued so much in the early years is now boring, not to mention indifferent. This is not only true between relatives, but also between husband and wife.
If one day the love breaks out, they will probably be disgusted with each other. Brother Jiu looked at her and said: "What? What I said is wrong? Lao Shi and I have different temperaments. I can still respond in vain, but Lao Shi is too lazy to deal with it." Shu Shu shook his head and said: "I didn't think what I said What's wrong is that I was thinking that Ba Fujin was treating his face, but Ba Ye had a foreign wife. These two couples are weird." Brother Jiu said with disdain: "That was done by Guo Luoluo himself, even if Even if your face is healed, no one will be proud of you if you don't change your temper..." Shu Shu didn't say anything else. She just felt that the famously loving couple who had supported each other for more than thirty years in history would not really be so alienated. When things turn around, at least they should still be affectionate and affectionate towards others.
Otherwise, how could the Eighth Prince unite the princely forces of Zhenglan Banner? When you can't eat the soft rice, it's time to eat the soft rice softly.
The couple chatted and arrived outside the Shenwu Gate. Shu Shu said to Brother Ninth: "There is no need for the carriage to pick me up. I will go back directly in the car of my tenth brother and sister." The couple shared a car today.
Brother Jiu nodded, indicating that he understood. Shu Shu got off the carriage. The fourth Fujin in front had already got off the carriage and was talking to the fifth Fujin.
Wufujin also came a little early today. Shu Shu just waited for Shi Fujin, and the two sisters stepped forward together.
They will go to the Tenth Prince's Mansion for a gathering soon after leaving the palace, so there is nothing to say at the moment. The sisters-in-law said hello and then went their separate ways.
Shu Shu and Wu Fujin are already holding hands and heading to Yikun Palace.
"The fifth master sent back some doe yesterday. Two of them are going to be sent to the palace, and the other two are for you. I will send them together this afternoon." Wufu Jin said.
Shu Shu nodded and said: "Then, Sister-in-law Five will thank Brother Five on our behalf. I was thinking of giving some other things to the little ones to try. I wonder if stewed deer milk can be drunk." Regarding the children, Wu Fujin took it seriously and reminded He said: "Then you need to ask the imperial doctor carefully. Don't dare to ask them to try it casually."
"Well, that's for sure." Shu Shu said. It seems that this is the case for mothers. Those who have children tend to talk about their children.
Wu Fujin also mentioned the child: "The second elder brother knows how to recognize people. I look at him every day and his eyes follow me." Shu Shu sounded strange, but fortunately he was not ranked as the third elder brother or the fourth elder brother.
It's just hard to point it out, otherwise it would be even weirder. Every family is full of brothers. She said: "It's so fast. In half a month, I can turn over. It's fun." Wu Fujin's face was full of tenderness and expectation.
When we arrived at Yikun Palace, the seventeenth elder brother and the eighteenth elder brother were also there. The two of them were wearing small coats trimmed with mink fur and woolen melon-skin hats on their heads, and were chasing each other in Yikun Palace.
It's this pursuit that has moisture. The eighteenth brother is actually two years old, but is actually less than one and a half years old before he can walk steadily.
The seventeenth elder brother was just playing with his younger brother. He walked next to the kang so that the eighteenth elder brother could grab the edge of the kang and chase people.
"Cackle..." The room was filled with the clear laughter of the 18th prince.
"Haha..." Brother Seventeen also smiled and guided his younger brother to take a few more steps. Seeing the arrival of Shu Shu and Wu Fujin, the seventeenth elder brother stopped, took the eighteenth elder brother's hand, and bowed: "Please greet the fifth sister-in-law, please greet the ninth sister-in-law..." The eighteenth elder brother had not seen the two for a long time. The sister-in-law, who had long forgotten who she was, just looked at her curiously and followed the example of Brother Seventeen: "An, An..." Shu Shu and Wu Fujin followed the rules and returned the greeting, saying, "Good morning, Uncle Seventeen. Hello, Eighth Uncle." Although my brother-in-law is still a little bit young, he is also the prince's elder brother.
With the old affairs of Taizu's dynasty, let alone them, even the crown princess would not dare to neglect the prince's elder brother. Concubine Yi ordered Peilan: "Take the two elder brothers to the West House and run two more laps..." Peilan responded, greeted the nannies standing next to her, and led the two elder brothers down.
Only then did Concubine Yi tell Shu Shu and Wu Fujin: "In the morning, we steamed minced meat and eggs. The two brothers competed. They didn't put down their bowls. They were all full, and their stomachs were swollen and hard, and they were full of food." Wu Fujin Said: "It's good to run and jump, your body will be strong." Shu Shu did not answer, remembering that when he was in Changchun Garden, Brother Jiu once brought eggs in front of the emperor.
However, the supply of the imperial dining room is subject to regulations, and it would be troublesome to increase the number. From what Yifei meant, that should have not been added, otherwise the two princes and elder brothers would not be able to eat eggs and would be full.
Before going out, Concubine Yi asked someone to dig out a brocade box.
"The gift I received when I went to Horqin the year before last year. Since you want to appraise the treasure today, you can use it to show Shifujin..." Concubine Yi said.
It turns out that Shi Fujin sent people into the palace yesterday afternoon. In addition to gifts for the Queen Mother, the two concubines and the crown princess, he also sent two bottles of perfume to Yikun Palace.
Concubine Yi specially asked someone to dig out this, which was regarded as a return gift. It was an inch and a half square chain box inlaid with rubies and sapphires. It looked like a diagonal mobile phone chain from later generations.
Look at the style, it is the style that Mongolians like; look at the sophistication and the palace style, it should be an antique jewelry from the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty.
This kind of jewelry on the body goes well with the Mongolian robe. Yifei chose this as a return gift, and Shu Shu took it very carefully and let Xiaosong hold it.
Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law still took the chariot and headed to Ningshou Palace. It's getting colder every day. The Queen Mother's greeting time here is getting shorter and shorter.
The room was burning with earthworm fever. Everyone was wearing straight sweaters and sweating after staying for a long time. The Queen Mother was considerate and basically greeted everyone, said a few words and dismissed everyone.
The same is true today. Shu Shu took Jiu Gege's hand, looked at it carefully, and said, "Is this the illness?" On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Jiu Gege was not there, but he did not complain about illness, only saying that there was something going on in the house.
Shu Shu felt that it was probably because of her physical discomfort, and she didn't want the Queen Mother to worry. Otherwise, if something is really delayed, you won't be embarrassed, but will explain why you didn't enter the palace.
Jiu Gege blushed and said: "It's okay, I'm just menstruating. I have some stomachache. My husband made a fuss and refused to let me go. I asked someone to take leave." Shu Shu held her hand and felt her palm. Feeling moist in my heart, I knew that I must not have said it so lightly, so I said: "When it's convenient, ask Mrs. Jiang to come over and prescribe two prescriptions for regulating menstruation. The problem on this woman's menstrual letter is not serious, but it makes people tired. It's just a good time in winter." Tonify and remove dampness..." Jiugege nodded and said, "Yes, my brother-in-law said the same thing." After hearing this, Shu Shu felt quite satisfied with Bu Xi.
Even these things can be thought of. If you don't tell the princess whether you are sincere or not, being considerate is enough. Like Shu Shu, Shi Fujin also brought two girls into the palace, and now both girls were holding brocade boxes in their arms.
San Fujin was talking with Si Fujin on his arm. When he saw this scene, he whispered to Si Fujin: "This is the first time I heard about this invitation. In the end, are we going to appraise the treasure or give it away?" Sister-in-law, who has the nerve to bare his hands when going out for a meal? You have to pull out good things and take them with you.
As a result, in addition to those who were eating at the table, the elders who did not show up also prepared things for them. This treat is so worth it... *No. 4 in history, the list is so intense that I burst into tears and rolled around begging for monthly votes.
