After all, everyone is here to comfort people, and they don't sit for too long, otherwise they will become a nuisance.

The yard became quiet.

There was a plain table, but Shu Shu had no appetite.

Brother Jiu accompanied her and persuaded her twice before she ate two pieces of steamed gluten and a few chopsticks of spring bamboo shoots.

Brother Jiu, on the other hand, ate most of the remaining dishes.

It's not what he usually likes.

"Master..."

Shu Shu looked at Brother Jiu and was a little moved.

This is because she is worried that others will find fault with her.

Although it is not a formal dish appreciation, it is still a favor from the emperor.

Naturally, the only way to express gratitude to the emperor is to eat more.

Brother Jiu hummed softly: "I am tired of eating big fish and big meat, so I want to change to a side dish to refresh myself..."

Shu Shu's thoughts were all in the capital, and she was not in the mood to tease Mengzi, so she only looked at Ninth Brother softly.

Brother Jiu felt sour, rubbed her face and said, "Cry if you want to..."

Shu Shu shook her head and whispered: "Actually, I don't feel very uncomfortable, I just feel a little confused..."

poor person must have something mean.

The uncle has fallen into this fate because of his own doing.

But before the secret was revealed, he was also a kind and kind elder.

"I just feel that I am too selfish and coldhearted. Regardless of the grievances between my uncle and the elders, he still loves my niece very much..."

Shu Shu and Brother Jiu sighed.

But her position is still that of Madam Uncle, who is closer to her.

Brother Jiu asked, "What's the point? You didn't add insult to injury, why are you feeling divided between near and far?"

Shu Shu just sighed and said nothing more.

After the dining table was moved away, Shu Shu went to the desk and prepared to write a letter home.

Xiao Song was grinding ink beside him.

Brother Jiu waved his hand and said: "Go down, there is a master here in Fujin..."

Xiaosong didn't move, glanced at Shushu, and when he saw her chin, he responded and went out.

Brother Jiu hummed and said, "What's going on? Sun Jin, you can directly use He Yuzhu beside me, but I still can't control him?"

Shu Shu said: "Well, it really shouldn't be. I'll tell them next time."

However, Brother Jiu thought of something and said: "It's a pity that the black guard is retiring directly in the Dutong Mansion. He is still in his prime. Why don't you talk to your father-in-law and let's borrow it? We will also have to keep an eye on the waistcoat of the Prince's Mansion."

With."

He doesn't have Hahazhu to command him. Fusong is the general manager and guard. He needs to have one of his own here.

Shu Shu thought about it for a while, and her heart was pounding.

Although there is nothing in the capital or the Prince's Mansion that requires force value, the vests and guards that are available are still different from those that can be used.

As a daughter-in-law, I have traveled far and wide countless times in the future, but my ninth elder brother will inevitably have foreign affairs.

When the time comes, she will be followed by a pile of rubbish, and she won't worry.

"Well, well! I'll write a letter to Amma right now!"

Shu Shu said.

The main purpose is to divert Amma's attention from the pain of bereavement.

She pondered for a moment and then started writing. In addition to mentioning that she had received news from the Ministry of Rites and had begun to wear clothes, she also wrote a lot about how Luo's birth was going. At this time, the younger brother and younger sister should be born;

It was mentioned that Zhuliang, Heishan and his party only returned to Beijing with Sibeile Mansion's vest at the end of March. It is estimated that they can arrive in Beijing before the Dragon Boat Festival.

Later, she mentioned the plan of the Prince's Mansion. It was short of manpower and feared that there would be no people to use. Brother Ninth wanted to ask for help from Montenegro.

Then she wrote separate letters to Mr. Jueluo and Mrs. Bo.

There is another letter for Fusong.

He asked Fusong to pay a sum of money and see if he could buy a shop in the city.

If there is no ready-made one, just pick one of her current shops and make room for one.

Brother Jiu was bored and was watching Shu Shu's letter. When he saw this sentence, he said: "What else are you buying? I've divided a few of them, just use them!"

Shu Shu put down her pen and said, "I'm not doing it myself, I'm preparing to add makeup to my cousin."

It’s not easy to take possession of Brother Jiu’s property, otherwise what will the elders in the palace think?

This cousin is Guizhen Gege who left Dong E's family.

"First of all, when I got married, because my aunt added Baiwangshan Zhuangzi to the suffix, the property in the marriage was an odd number. The family property was either far away or inappropriate, so my cousin gave me a Daxing Zhuangzi in the dowry.

I couldn't refuse politely at that time, so I had no choice but to accept it..."

Shu Shu lamented: "I was thinking that we would have some suitable business in the future, so I pulled her into a stake and returned the favor..."

Now it seems that it is impossible.

In addition to being distant cousins, they are also the relationship between ex-sister-in-law and ex-sister-in-law.

Guizhen Gege is going to get married again, and it will be difficult for her to have close contact with Dong E's family again.

Otherwise, the husband's family may feel uncomfortable.

Brother Jiu nodded and said: "Then I have to prepare one."

He has only been to the Yue family a few times in total, mostly in the Dutong Mansion. He has only met the clan sister and his cousin's sister-in-law a few times, and he has the impression that he is a cheerful person who treats Shu Shu well.

Shu Shu thought of the scene when Guizhen entered the house last year and couldn't help but said to Brother Jiu: "What do you think Bafujin was thinking? Last year, when my cousin came in, she came uninvited and talked nonsense, saying that my mother-in-law's family is '

Queen of sinners? Could it be that in her eyes, her Amma is innocent?"

Brother Jiu thought for a while and said: "I can't guarantee it, otherwise I wouldn't be so confident. It's probably because others don't want to say bad things about her Ama in front of her. Most of them blame the fault on others and blame her Ama for what she said."

Innocent and pitiful."

Now that Bafujin is suing her natal family, is she treating her uncle and auntie as the real culprits behind the scenes?

Shu Shu was silent.

She only told Amma about the bad debt between her maternal family and the Guo Luoluo family, and no one else mentioned it.

Do you want to tell Brother Jiu?

Husband and wife are on the same page?

Immediately, Shu Shu said no.

Now that the couple is in good terms, Brother Jiu naturally stands in her position.

But she is still a pessimist at heart and can always think of the worst outcome.

If he told her, in the future when the relationship between the couple was weak, he would probably think that it was because of this that she was alienated from Ba Age and his wife.

Shu Shudean pulled his head, feeling a little depressed.

Brother Jiu was quiet and felt her unhappiness. He just thought she was still feeling uncomfortable about the death of her uncle and said: "How about I accompany you back to Beijing for the funeral? It just so happens that the big yellow ship from Zhizao Mansion is going north in the past two days?

"

After hearing this, Shu Shu was slightly moved, but she still shook her head rationally and said: "No, I just thought about the complicated funeral ceremony and it coincided with Enie's delivery date, so I was a little worried about my family."

Brother Jiu held her hand and said: "I think Lao Shi Fujin's suggestion is reasonable. Don't worry about this now and that now. It's better to settle down early and have a good sleep..."

Shu Shu nodded in agreement.

She was also a little exhausted physically and mentally, but she still said: "Please sleep here tonight!"

Their small courtyard is similar to the row houses in the Northern Banner Camp.

It has three main rooms and two wing rooms on the east and west sides. It is a triple courtyard.

The main room is the living room in the east room and the study room in the west room.

There is no bed in the study, but there is an Arhat couch.

Brother Jiu was not very happy, but thinking that when he was out and about, everything going on would be under the eyes of his elders, so he nodded reluctantly.

As soon as it was time to watch, Shu Shu lay down.

Brother Jiu was worried that she wouldn't sleep well, so he ordered Xiao Chun to light incense.

Cigarettes curled up.

Shu Shu's eyelids also became heavy and he fell into a hazy sleep.
