Xiaoliu sat next to Shushu, looked at Fengsheng and Akdan, and said: "If we follow the example of the princes of various palaces, who enter the study room at the age of five, then in forty-three years, the eldest brother and the second brother will be It's time to go to school, and I'll still be in the study room..."
Shu Shu nodded and said, "Yes, it just so happens that your little uncle can still keep an eye on them."
Xiao Liu puffed up his chest and said, "Then I have to do better in my homework. Then I won't let my nephews laugh at me."
Shu Shu said: "Then study hard, but don't reverse the priorities. Studying is important, and serving the fifteenth brother is also important."
After all, he is the prince's companion. Unless he chooses to go abroad, Xiaoliu's future is to follow the fifteenth elder brother. It is not about the quality of his homework, but more about the close relationship with the fifteenth elder brother.
Xiao Liu nodded and said: "Don't worry, eldest sister, I still want to be the leader of the fifteenth master's bodyguard."
He was already ten years old, not a child anymore. He got close to Shu Shu for a while, and then went to the East Room to join his father and brother.
There were only a few mothers left in the west room.
Jueluo looked at Shu Shu and said: "Gali's wife has returned to Beijing from Shanxi for the second-bedroom show girl talent show. It looks like she is heading to Yuqing Palace. If I hand you a post then, don't do it." Talk to her."
Mrs. Gali is the sister of the prince's aunt, which should be the main reason why Gali became a "princeling".
Shu Shu felt a headache when she heard that, and said: "The Crown Princess is still here, are you just daydreaming?"
My father's official position was not high. Even when he arrived at Yuqing Palace, he was still a concubine and wanted to be his grandson's biological mother. Isn't this a dream?
Jueluo snorted coldly: "The three sons of the East Palace are of low status, and the emperor's eldest grandson is not favored by the emperor. Isn't there someone who hopes that 'sons are more valuable than mothers' and 'mothers are more valuable than sons'?"
After hearing this, Shu Shu was silent for a while and said, "Unless the emperor nods, they will not be able to go to Yuqing Palace."
If the emperor nods, then he doesn't really mean to promote the second wife of the Dong E family. This is not a good thing for the Dutong Mansion.
A family has only one leader to the outside world.
Earlier it was Peng Chun, now it's Qi Xi.
Garli was arrogant, arrogant and greedy.
If he becomes the leader of the Dong E family, everyone will fall into the trap.
Jueluo Shi said: "Anyway, don't get involved, let Brother Jiu pay more attention."
The Eight Banners Draft was nominally in charge of the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Household Affairs, but in fact it was the Ministry of Internal Affairs that handled it.
Shu Shu nodded and said, "Master Jiu has always kept a distance from that place."
Mrs. Bo looked at the children and did not interrupt.
It was only when Shu Shu went down to change clothes that the uncle whispered to Luo Shi, "Even if you don't worry about it in the future, just tell Shu Shu, don't tell Brother Jiu."
Whose son-in-law is willing to have his mother-in-law dictate to him about his life?
Besides, it would be taboo if it was exposed in front of others.
Since they are the prince and son-in-law, they can respect him, but if they dare to control the prince, the emperor will not tolerate it.
Jueluo Shi knew that this was the truth, so he exhaled and said, "Well, it won't happen in the future. I just see that Shu Shu is not stable anymore, so I feel a little worried."
Mrs. Bo advised: "She is already the head mother of three children. She has done a good job now. She can learn the rest slowly."
Jue Luo Shi felt a sense of sadness, touched Ni Guzhu's chubby hand, and said: "I always feel that she is still young, but she is indeed not young anymore..."
When Shu Shu came back from changing clothes, she found that Jue Luo Shi was no longer nagging.
She was still a little uncomfortable, looking at Jue Luo Shi, she was thinking about whether to send some Xiaoyao Pills over.
The Jueluo family is forty-six years old, maybe it’s time to cut off Tiangui?
It would be great if that were the case, otherwise Ama and Enie would have a good relationship, and Shu Shu would be worried about having another Xiaoba.
Elderly mothers are no joke at this time, it is really a matter of life and death.
Jueluo Shi only looked at a few grandchildren and granddaughters.
Although they are close relatives, the number of times they can see each other in a year is limited.
These kids are good, Shu Shu is really good.
She was nagging too much. Brother Jiu had been respectful and considerate in the past few years, which was not the reason for her losing her sense of proportion.
Shu Shu met Nahan, sat in front of Mrs. Bo, and asked in a low voice: "Ah Mou, what's wrong with my Eni? I just gave you one sentence and that's all? Nothing else?"
The uncle said: "You, Eni, are a sensible person and know the experience of our old lives. Use whatever you can, but you still have to make your own decision on how to act."
Shu Shu leaned on the kang, staring at each other with her younger brother. Then she couldn't help but hold Xiao Qi in her arms and said, "I don't want to bother myself when E Ni and Amou are here."
Jue Luoshi snorted and said, "You're telling a lie. If you were asked to listen to others in everything, would you be able to bear it?"
A wise daughter is better than a mother.
When a daughter is being nice, she just looks like she is being nice, but she has big ideas.
Shu Shu lazily said: "Just listen to what Eni and Amou say, and listen to what others say."
Many young people are naturally rebellious against the teachings of their parents and elders. Shu Shu feels that she does not have that problem.
Just listen to whoever is right, and there is no need for internal friction.
In this regard, she is quite similar to Brother Jiu.
Jueluo Shi and Mrs. Bo looked at each other with smiles in their eyes.
Shu Shu's spirit can be so relaxed without the need for intrigue.
As for the future...
There is no need to worry unfoundedly.
With brothers Fengsheng and Akdan here, everything is safe...
*
In the east room.
Weng's son-in-law sat on the kang, and Zhuliang and his brothers sat on chairs.
Qi Xi looked at his sons. Zhuliang was seventeen, mistress, forty-five, and fifty-two. Even the youngest, Xiaoliu, was ten years old.
He glanced at Brother Ninth again. Even though he looked easy-going, his aura was getting stronger every year.
Holding the Ministry of Internal Affairs and always accompanying the emperor, his demeanor has changed, completely different from the bravado and arrogance before the wedding.
Brother Jiu noticed Qi Xi's gaze and looked over.
He was truly grateful to his father-in-law.
Qi Xi didn't preach much in the past few years. It was still in the first half year when he took over the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but he was still used.
Seeing that only the bottom of the tea bowl was left in front of Qi Xi, Brother Jiu reached for the teapot and poured it for Qi Xi.
Seeing that only half the cup was poured, Qi Xi smiled.
This is also progress.
Brother Jiu glanced at the tea leaves in the cup and saw that it was Pu'er.
This is not surprising. Nowadays, drinking tea depends on the season. Drink more Pu'er in winter.
Brother Jiu said: "A few years ago, I asked someone to buy a Pu'er tea mountain in Yunnan. In the past few years, I have been transplanting and dividing the tea trees. They will be grown in three or four years. By then, the Pu'er tea at home will be I made an appointment with Fujin."
Qi Xi smiled and said: "Waiting at home..."
As he spoke, he also remembered something and said: "Years ago, I bought a piece of land outside my mouth and raised a hundred cows and five hundred sheep. From now on, I don't have to buy the beef and mutton from the prince's house outside. Sheep are more tender, and oxen are not too old to eat..."
Outside the mouth, there are pastures for princes and nobles of various banners. How can there be new pastures?
Brother Jiu immediately thought of Prince Kang's Mansion.
Could it be that Prince Kang was selling the land?
Then he thought no.
Prince Kang's Mansion is a descendant of Prince Li Lie, and he is the head of this sect. Most of the Prince's Mansion's properties are public property, and it is difficult for even the heirs to divide and sell them.
Even if we really want to take action, there are still other sect members waiting for us and we will not sell it outside.
What's left is the pasture under the government's name.
Peng Chun passed away and Zeng Shou attacked the third-class Duke, but the vacancy was never filled.
The government also divided the family once and dispersed most of the property.
Now that one cannot make ends meet, it is common to divide the property and sell it to the clan members, but it is too wasteful.
It's just that Brother Ninth is not Wu Xia Ameng. Looking at Zhu Liang, who has already become a teenager, and Xiao San and Xiao Si, who will become adults next year, he also understands the purpose of longevity.
This is to ease the conflict with the Dutong Prefecture.
While brother Zhu Liang was still young, he borrowed Qi Xi's help.
There are not many princes in the imperial court, and they are the highest-status among the nobles. However, there is a huge difference between the princes who have actual duties and those who do not.
No one is interfering to increase life span. Increase life span through filial piety, which is also idle.
If the third elder brother's reputation remains the same, the government will naturally not expect the Dutong government to borrow help from him.
However, the third elder brother was still affected by the concubine's sealing of the palace, and it was obvious that he could not take advantage of it.
Brother Jiu said: "I am also thinking about this. Since my father-in-law bought the ranch first, there is no need to worry."
Weng's son-in-law was chatting, and Xiaosan and Xiaosi also asked about Gao Bin's writing test. Xiaowu remained quiet, while Xiaoliu mentioned that they would start practicing horse riding after the new year.
Everyone talked and laughed, and it was time for lunch.
Jue Luo and Mrs. Bo are here at the same age, and there is nothing to avoid with Brother Jiu.
The large round table was used for lunch, and everyone had a reunion dinner.
Shu Shu and Brother Jiu, the aunt and uncle of Guining, sit on the seats. On the left is Mrs. Bo, and on the right is Qi Xi and his wife.
They are all New Year dishes, and there is nothing to show for them.
What we eat here is reunion and family ties.
The time they got together was short-lived, and by the time Shenchu arrived, they had to leave.
I have to go to Changchun Garden tomorrow, and I also have some other trivial matters.
Mrs. Bo and Ni Guzhu also need to be brought back.
It was still Zhuliang and Xiaosan riding horses to see each other off.
Xiaoliu also wanted to follow him out, but Shu Shu held him down.
"Stay there honestly, you won't be able to stay at home for more than a few days a year, and spend time with Amma and Enie..."
Before Xiaoqi was born, he was also a young son. After staying in the palace for three years, he became a man of experience and became a lot wiser and older. Who knows how many grievances he suffered.
Xiao Liu stuck out his tongue and said: "This haha pearl is just like a palace maid. She can't leave the palace easily. She can wait until the fifteenth master becomes a son."
Shu Shu looked at his little dark face and said, "I brought you some facial grease and remember to wipe it off. It will still be so dark in a few years and I won't be able to talk about the marriage!"
Xiao Liu showed his small white teeth and said, "That can't be done. I'm thinking of several of my brothers-in-law. Our family has a good family tradition..."
Shu Shu glanced at Jueluo Shi and said, "Enie's wife hasn't even entered the house yet, and she's already known as a 'good mother-in-law'?"
Jueluo said: "The daughters of any family are as precious as treasures, so it's not good to treat them badly."
The main reason is that she has a daughter herself, and if she loves her daughter, she will not wrong other people's daughters.
She now has two prospective daughters-in-law, and she sends her sons gifts during the holidays, and the preparations are appropriate. She is also happy to see her son get close to his father-in-law.
This kind of behavior is in the eyes of others, and people with daughters will naturally pay attention to it.
However, Shu Shu still had lingering fears when he thought of Niu Hulu's big brother, and whispered: "Enie, if you want to propose marriage to Xiao Si, try to find it in the clan. Seeing that there is no peace, I don't want to be disturbed. How much can be combined..."
A noble family with high eyes and big heart will fall quickly.
On the contrary, as clan members, life is more stable.
There is also the saying "birds of a feather flock together, people divide into groups". In the Dong'e family, several generations have been eldest daughters. The first two daughters-in-law of this generation were also eldest daughters. They married into the daughters of nobles or nobles, and they had different temperaments and temperaments. Afraid of not getting along with each other.
Shu Shu himself has personally verified how much influence the sister-in-law relationship has on the relationship between brothers. Naturally, she also hopes that there will be no sibling discord in the family...
