Chapter 809 Another news (monthly ticket)(1/2)

The next day, Shu Shu prepared not two funeral rites, but three.

Fayuan Temple will give you one copy, and Pingjun Prince's Mansion will give you two copies.

The other copy from Prince Ping's Mansion was given by Madam Bo to Old Fujin from Prince Ping's Mansion.

That old Fujin is Madame Bo's cousin.

Today, Mrs. Bo was the only one who went to Pingjun Prince’s Mansion to express condolences.

Shu Shu has difficulty moving, so she can't help but feel a little worried if she stays at home.

Madam uncle is a mature person, I am afraid that she will feel about life and death.

However, when Mrs. Bo came back, except for the red circles under her eyes, she looked fine.

The uncle's temperament was open-minded and said: "The old man is already eighty. It is a blessing that he left in such a hurry."

If you procrastinate, the old lady will suffer too.

Shu Shu felt relieved now.

Prince Ping is the banner lord, and his funeral arrangements will not be as simple as those of the old Duke.

If old Fujin were still there, as his grandson, it would be difficult for him to stay full, so he would be buried on May 7th.

Now that old Fujin has passed away, Prince Ping is the head of the family and will have to wait for the full time.

The meeting has always been full of "Qiqi", and the grandfather and grandson started it together.

Due to this funeral, all the clan banquets during the Chinese New Year were canceled this year, and only the feudal clan banquet was given on New Year's Eve.

It was New Year's Eve in a deserted atmosphere.

Brother Jiu, like other princes, went to the palace to attend the feudal banquet.

These princes and elder brothers want to toast on behalf of the emperor.

Shu Shu, Mrs. Bo and Zhaojia Gege had the New Year dinner together.

A serious banquet, with eight plates and eight bowls on the table.

After more than two months of practice makes perfect, Zhaojia Gege’s skills have also improved a bit.

Last time I brought a small ring, but this time I brought two longevity locks.

It's different from the kind of longevity lock that Shu Shu asked people to prepare for the ceremony. The kind depends on the weight, at least two or three taels.

After Zhaojia Gege did this, she only had one tael, and she looked light and airy.

There are only four coins in the lock plate, and the remaining six coins are in the thin gold chain.

On the locking plate are the four words "Longevity and Longevity".

This is a longevity lock worn by newborns after they turn "100 years old" or "one year old".

This size is suitable for daily wear, otherwise children will not be able to bear it.

"I don't know what I can do to honor Fujin, so I made these two things for my young master..."

Zhaojia Gege said sarcastically.

Shu Shu took out the longevity lock from the brocade box. The lock piece was not big, but it had a pattern of bats and longevity peaches chiseled around it. It looked small and cute.

But……

Shu Shu looked at Zhaojia Gege with disapproval and said: "Don't chisel these tiny patterns in the future, it will hurt your eyes..."

The big ones are as big as half a grain of rice, and the small ones are like millet.

Zhaojia giggled and said: "This pattern is smaller. I won't make small pieces in the future!"

Shu Shu looked at the walnuts and ordered: "Take two cans of wolfberry and leave them there, and ask Gege to take them back to make tea later..."

Wolfberry improves eyesight.

Seeing that the two wives did not look like wives and the concubines did not look like concubines, Mrs. Bo was a little worried.

It would be fine if it stayed like this, but people's hearts are fickle, and there's no guarantee that Zhaojia Gege would feel aggrieved over time.

Wait and see again in a few years...

After the New Year's dinner, Zhaojia Gege took the wolfberries back to the side yard.

Shu Shu picked at the pine nuts and ate them.

If you love eating but are afraid of getting fat, you can only eat less.

One pine nut at a time.

Mrs. Bo mentioned her visit to Pingjun Prince's Mansion the day before yesterday and said, "The Guarjia family wants to take their daughter back to observe her filial piety..."

This is more like a rhetoric. When the time comes, you can advance and attack, and retreat and defend.

Shu Shu asked strangely: "Isn't the clan advocating observing moral integrity now?"

If the prince of the county succeeds to the Jin Dynasty and marries again, it is unlikely that he will become a high-ranking member of the clan.

Because of the promotion of Confucianism, seniority restrictions have begun. It is okay to remarry, but not to "accept" someone, and you cannot fall into the wrong seniority.

If you marry outside, there is no need.

The uncle said: "Prince Fujin of Pingjun is the step-in-law and has no biological children..."

The most important thing is that after Fujin was young, he married in the 36th year of Kangxi's reign, and he is only seventeen years old now.

The eldest brother of the royal family is ten years old.

The age difference between mother and son is too small, and there are no other elders around, so it is easy to attract criticism.

The palace has already announced that they will take the eldest brother into the inner court to raise him. It will be even more difficult for the county prince to take over a young woman to guard him alone.

There is a lot of trouble at the widow's door.

Shu Shu nodded and said, "That's a family that loves their daughter."

The uncle said: "I feel sorry for Prince Pingjun's mansion. There are no adults in this room..."

The eldest brother has a younger brother of the same mother, but he has not yet been married, so he becomes the only child in the palace.

"Where's the side branch?"

Shu Shu said.

There have been four generations of kings in Pingjun Prince's Mansion, and there should be many side branches.

The uncle said: "There is only one uncle, Gebeile, who is the youngest son of old Fujin and the uncle of Prince Ping..."

Mrs. Bo left two New Year's purses and returned to Ning'an Hall.

Shushu here, just catching up on some sleep.

In the evening, Aunt Bai from Ningshou Palace and the chief eunuch from Yikun Palace came one after another, and were ordered to deliver the New Year's Eve tray to Shu Shu.

All are fresh fruits.

On the Queen Mother's side are bergamot, orange, apple and longan.

Yifei here are oranges, winter dates, persimmons, and water chestnuts.

Although the Prince's Mansion also reserves a lot of fruits, they are not as complete as those in the palace.

Just smelling it makes people feel relaxed and happy.

Shu Shu chose the right choice and put together two more New Year's Eve dishes.

A copy of the eight pieces was sent to Ning'an Hall.

A four-piece meal was sent to a side hospital.

When it was time to watch, Brother Jiu came back with a strange look on his face.

Shu Shu saw something wrong with his expression and said, "What's wrong?"

Brother Jiu said: "Prince Anhe has been sued! Both Lao Shi and Ba Ge have gone to the clan mansion!"

He didn't worry about being at home, otherwise he would go and see the excitement.

"You say it's rare or not? This man has been dead for more than ten years, how can he still be sued?"

The ninth elder brother was a little bit incredible.

"But today is the Chinese New Year. Are we going to file a lawsuit at this time?"

Shu Shu frowned and said, "Isn't it because Prince An's palace has offended someone?"

I deliberately chose a day like this to attract attention.

But is it not a thorough thought?

This day would not only make Prince Anjun uncomfortable, but would also make Kangxi unhappy.

What are you doing during the Chinese New Year?

It sounds unlucky.
