Chapter 1367 Guests Arrive (Walling for Monthly Tickets)
Just now, Fifth Brother and his wife and Jiu Gege also arrived.
Shu Shu brought Shifu Jin out to greet him.
The ninth and tenth elder brothers who were talking in the front yard also came out.
The fifth elder brother got off the carriage and helped Wu Fujin out of the carriage. After saying hello to Shu Shu, he looked at the tenth elder brother and said, "You guys came out too early."
I thought we would come together.
Brother Ten said: "We got up early today, had breakfast and came back first."
Jiu Gege also got off the carriage.
Shu Shu helped her out of the carriage and looked around, but Bu Xi was nowhere to be seen.
Jiu Gege said: "I met someone from the Duke's office at the city gate. They said that the Duke had something to do and asked my consort to go back. I'll go back and have a look."
There was movement at the entrance of the Ninth Prince's Mansion, and soon the news came to both the Eight Beile Mansion and the Fourth Beile Mansion.
*
Babel Mansion, main room.
The eighth prince was still recovering from his injuries and did not go to the Penal Department Yamen for a walk.
He looked at the time and thought about the relationship between the two families. It should not be too early or too late. After all, they live next to each other.
He said to Bafu Jin: "We are about to go there again."
Bafujin was sitting in front of the dressing table, looking at himself in the mirror.
The scars on his face have become lighter and lighter, leaving only white marks that cannot be seen without looking carefully, but the wounds in his heart cannot be healed.
He still looks glamorous and wealthy, but Bafujin has lost the pride he had in his early years.
She responded, looking down at her hands. The enamel-encrusted fingernails made her fingers look whiter and more supple.
She took off her nail polishes one by one, put them back in the box, and then sat up straight.
*
Sibeile Mansion, main room.
Sifujin is also dressed.
Fourth elder brother is not here and has gone to the Hubu Yamen. He will go directly to the Prince's Mansion from the Yamen.
Si Fujin didn't waste any time. He asked his grandma to take good care of his little brother, and then brought the girl out.
Now that the spring breeze is blowing, it is neither too hot nor too cold. Sibeile Mansion is only separated from the Ninth Prince's Mansion by Babeile Mansion, less than half a mile away, and Sifujin is walking over.
The concierge wanted to pass the message inside, but Sifujin didn't wait and went directly to the main courtyard.
Shu Shu was taking her sister-in-law to the back building to see Fengsheng and Akdan.
As for why they were not brought directly to the main room, it was because they were afraid that there would be too many people and the air would be muddy, and they would be making trouble soon.
Sifujin saw this and followed him.
Fengsheng and Akdan were eating complementary food. Fengsheng was eating steamed apples and Akdan was eating egg custard.
Watching a few people come in, they both behaved well and didn't make any noise.
"Eni..."
Feng Sheng's speech was already very clear, his eyes were glued to Shu Shu's body, and his milky voice was soothing.
Akdan put down his spoon and ran directly to Shu Shu.
Shu Shu held one in her arms and held another in her hand, feeling somewhat lucky.
Fortunately, Ni Guzhu was not here, otherwise I would have gone to the back.
It's so hard to carry water.
She hurriedly turned to the side and asked the children to face everyone, and then said to the two of them: "This is my aunt, this is Ah Mou, this is also Ah Mou, this is Wo Ke..."
The children's faces are displayed here. Everyone can tell who is who after seeing them. No need to introduce them, just talk about the elders with the children.
Akdan's little face was pressed against Shu Shu's shoulder. Most of the people looked unfamiliar, so he looked at Shi Fujin.
To be honest, everyone has seen them, but children can't remember, so the ones who are familiar with them are Shi Fujin.
Not to mention that the first two brothers stayed at Shi Fujin's house for a month. After that, Shi Fujin also came over every now and then, and they all had some impressions.
Sifujin knew that Fengsheng was a child who was not afraid of birth, so he hugged Fengsheng and said, "Let Amou hug him."
She has a younger child at home, who she takes care of herself, and speaks softly and lovingly.
Fengsheng obediently let Si Fujin hold him, looked at Si Fujin and said, "Ah Mou..."
He didn't know him, but he understood Shu Shu's teachings.
Si Fujin smiled and agreed, looking at Fengsheng reluctant to let go.
Although no one despises their own children, considering that the appearance of the Honghui brothers is exactly the same as that of the fourth elder brother, Si Fujin has some shortcomings.
Jiu Gege was standing by, already waiting, and said: "Sister-in-law Fourth, I'll give you a hug too."
Although she has become an aunt a long time ago, she still holds the child in her arms countless times.
Sifujin reluctantly placed Fengsheng in her arms.
Jiu Gege answered it, smelled the milky smell on Fengsheng's body, looked at the Shu Shu-like appearance, and said: "She looks really good, no worse than Hong Qing."
There was another sentence at the end that she didn't say, which was that she must be smarter than Hongqing.
As the emperors and grandsons went to the study room to study, the qualifications of the emperors and grandsons of each mansion were also discussed outside.
The most unexpected thing is Hongqing from Sanbeile Mansion. She is the best-looking and the worst at homework. She is also the kid. If she wakes up late, she will be called a loser beauty.
.
Wu Fujin and Ten Fujin both leaned forward to look at Akdan in Shu Shu's arms.
Shi Fujin took his little hand and said, "Woke caught the little rabbit. Let's look at the little rabbit later."
Akdan let her pull him and looked at Shi Fujin with bright eyes.
Wu Fujin looked at Akdan and felt closer to him.
Akdan and his little brother are like brothers.
This is the magical power of blood ties.
Wu Fujin said to Shu Shu: "Our father said that the next time my siblings and Uncle Jiu go out again, they will take the child to our home."
Shu Shu smiled and said, "That's a good relationship. I have been tied up with children for the past two years and it's hard to move. When I went out last year, it was freezing cold and I didn't see anything."
Jiu Gege heard what the two said and said with a smile: "Then I will be ranked behind the fifth sister-in-law, and it will be the third round..."
Shu Shu did not refuse anyone who came, saying: "Okay, okay..."
Cui Baisui came to report that a guest had arrived.
It was Qi Fujin and Ba Fujin, and they came together.
Everyone returned to the main courtyard. Shu Shu and Shi Fujin went out to welcome the two of them in.
This is distance and distance.
Grandma is one of our own, not a guest, so she was the first to come.
As for Sanfujin, because she is pregnant, she cannot be too tired, so she has to come later.
Similarly, there is Guizhen Gege who lives in the backyard. Shu Shu also sent ginkgo to her early and told her that she was not allowed to come over early. She was afraid that she would feel uncomfortable after sitting for a long time, so she was asked to hold some and come around early noon.
The next wave of guests is Mrs. Mazie.
She knew that many of the guests here today were members of the Fujin clan, so she came early.
Then, there was the Dutong Mansion and the Duke's Mansion, where Jueluo and his wife came together.
The princess is the sister-in-law of San Fujin, the wife of the third-class Duke Zengshou, the eldest son of Dong E's family, and the eldest daughter of Prince Lilie's lineage.
At this moment, Guizhen Gege and Princess Shushen also arrived.
Then came San Fujin, Prince Yu Fujin, and Prince Gong Fujin.
The last ones to come were Prince Jian Fujin and Prince Kang Tai Fujin.
There are only a dozen female guests here in total, but speaking of it, the one with the lowest status is Guizhen, a daughter of an untitled clan, followed by Mrs. Maqi, the old lady of the pavilion.
The rest are all top quality.
Since we couldn't fit in one room, we divided them into two rooms according to seniority.
Here are the elders in Dongcijian, Mrs. Bo and Wu Fujin are greeting them.
Xicijian is an ordinary person, and Shifujin greets him.
Shu Shu was running around between the two rooms.
Now that we have dominoes, it will save a lot of trouble.
The card table was set up in the east room, and Prince Gong Fujin, Prince Jian Fujin, Jue Luo and Madam Ma Qi were persuaded to take their seats.
Prince Yu Fujin lost his eldest daughter and son one after another when he was young. His eyes were full of tears and he felt a little bad. He was talking to Prince Kang Tai Fujin and his wife.
When it comes to the hierarchy between elder and younger, Prince Kang Taifujin has the highest status among all the people.
In the early years when Prince Kang Liang was alive, the clan's lineage was always headed by Prince Kang Taifu Jin.
"Third sister-in-law, has Chun Tai Fujin chosen one? Which one is it..."
Prince Yu Fujin asked.
There was no one else around at the moment, and Xiu Nu’s marriage was scheduled to happen in March. Prince Kang Taifujin didn’t hide it, saying: “In order to save worry, I asked for grace and did not choose someone from outside. He is a member of the royal family’s banner.”
, Princess of the Wusu family."
The outside world has already known about the twenty beautiful ladies who stayed in the palace this time.
For example, here at Prince Yu's Mansion, because the fifth elder brother is also waiting for marriage, he is very concerned about it.
As soon as Tai Fujin said this, Prince Yu Fujin knew it. He nodded and said: "Ge Ge from the family of the Minister of War, the Wusu family also has the same surname."
Among this group of beautiful girls, this one has a middle-class background.
However, as the head of the meritorious kings, Prince Kang's Mansion does not require high-ranking marriages.
As Tai Fujin said, as long as you save worry, it will be good.
Mrs. Bo was standing by and said, "What about your Wufu Jin family? Do you have any news?"
Prince Yu has five sons and five daughters. Only the third elder brother, the fifth elder brother and a little girl under one year old are standing.
The ones chosen for promotion by Sanfu were also ladies from banner families, with mediocre backgrounds.
Prince Yu Fujin said: "What our prince wants is entirely up to the emperor."
Mrs. Bo thought about the two girls from Dong E's family and sighed in her heart.
Among the elders who need to be married by marriage, Prince Yu and Prince Gong are the two elder brothers with the lowest status. But how could the emperor appoint the daughter of his assistant to marry his nephew?
Those two are likely to be the prince's concubines in the future. If they are obedient, they will be fine. If they cause trouble in the future, Shu Shu and San Fujin will be in trouble.
Prince Kang Taifujin also knew about the second wife's affairs, and advised his wife: "Sister-in-law, don't take it to heart. Stay away from her. You are not the same person, and Shu Shu will not be involved in right and wrong."
Mrs. Bo sighed and said: "If the father-in-law is still here, how dare Galli to sneak into the camp like this?"
Peng Chun, the old clan leader, not only has a high status, he is also a veteran on the battlefield. He has a prominent reputation and the clan members obey him.
Now, in Zengshou's case, he is of a lower generation, has never been on the battlefield, and has not even made up for his shortcomings. Naturally, he cannot convince Ga Li.
As for Qi Xi, just like the Second Fang, he is also a side branch and is not the leader of the clan, so it is not easy for him to give advice on the affairs of the Second Fang.
A table playing cards on the floor was also talking about beautiful girls.
Not to mention anyone else, Mrs. Ma Qi's young daughter stayed overnight in the palace.
It's just that everyone knows that this person from the Ma Qi family is probably the prince Fujin, but they don't know who he is.
After all, the marriage was arranged in the palace, so it was not easy to ask Mrs. Ma Qi.
Prince Jian Fujin asked Prince Gong Fujin: "Where is your fifth son Fujin? Do you know the candidate?"
Prince Gong Fujin shook his head and said: "Our master also said that he would follow the emperor's grace, but the fifth brother and his mother are concubine Fujin, and her title is low. This Fujin's background is not too high..."
