Chapter 1385 Reaction (rolling and asking for monthly votes)
That's my aunt. Now that she's staying at my brother's place, my sister-in-law like Shu Shu will go over to visit her.
But her ranking was here, so she had to call Nanny Xing and said: "Go to Sanbeile Mansion and ask when Sanfujin will be there."
Aunt Xing responded and went down.
Brother Jiu said: "I guess it will be tomorrow."
Shu Shu said: "Then just follow."
You know, the eldest sister-in-law in Manchuria, that is, the great-aunt, sits while eating, and the sister-in-law has to stand to serve.
But they are ordinary people, so the royal family should be more respectful.
I have dealt with Princess Rongxian before, and I know that she is a considerate person and does not follow Princess Rong's meanness. The more she is like this, the more she must be respected, especially at this time.
Brother Jiu said: "In addition to paying homage to Khan Amma's birthday, it is also to take care of my brother-in-law's marriage. It will only take a month or two anyway, and it will still be long when we get together later."
Shu Shu said: "Follow the crowd and watch what the sisters-in-law do."
Brother Jiu said: "You really have to tell your second sister that you have a deep relationship. That's nonsense. We didn't grow up together, and we haven't even met each other a few times. But to say that we don't have a deep relationship, it's so pitiful to think of them marrying thousands of miles away."
Yes, from now on I won’t have the heart to find fault with Lao Shi Fujin..."

In Sanbeile Mansion, San Age and San Fujin were also talking about this matter.
The third elder brother thought of the slow treatment he received after being punished last year, and said: "The eldest princess has passed away. Her mother-in-law is a powerful person. I wonder if the second sister will be bullied in Bahrain..."
San Fujin comforted him and said, "Didn't I see it when I went to Bahrain last year? I said that Tai Fujin and Fujin were both respectful to the second sister, and their husband-in-law was also honest."
The key is that my eldest aunt has such a temper that she can suffer a lot?
The third elder brother sighed and said: "At this moment, at that moment, this is how the world is in trouble."
He was feeling sorry for himself, and people from various families came one after another.
San Fujin told him what he wanted to do when he went to his elder brother's place tomorrow morning.
After the people from each government left, the third elder brother said proudly: "It is only the second sister who has this reputation. Last year when Ke Jing returned to the court, she did not have such dignity."
Although her sister is the second princess, the eldest princess does not have enough confidence.
San Fujin also breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Second sister, have you always lived in Haidian? Then do you want to take Da Gege over to say hello? Second sister hasn't met my niece yet..."
Even if Princess Rongxian cannot directly plead for Zhongcuigong to be released from the ban, she can at least let others see that our third master is not alone and has a favored sister outside.
The third elder brother waved his hand and said: "Forget it tomorrow, it's a mess. The second sister will live in the city after the Longevity Festival. It's not convenient to organize the marriage outside..."

Around sunset, all the princes' palaces received accurate information, and Sanfu Jin and Ming Dynasty set off for Changchun Garden early in the morning.
Everyone else said that Qi Fujin here still remembered what he said about greeting him last time, and even sent someone to come to the Ninth Prince's Mansion and mentioned that he would come over to meet Shu Shu the next day.
Shu Shu naturally had no objection.
In Yuqing Palace, the prince and princess also got the news.
The prince felt extremely complicated when he thought of Princess Rongxian.
He didn't like Concubine Rong and his third elder brother, but he didn't dislike Princess Rongxian. She was a sister of a similar age and they had many small contacts.
But Princess Rongxian came back for Concubine Rong, so the prince didn't know how to face it.
On the other hand, the Crown Princess, although it was difficult for her to leave the palace by herself, had someone draw up a gift list and asked her nanny to go visit the princess the next day.
*
The next day, Shu Shu and Brother Jiu had breakfast and were not in a hurry to go out.
Shu Shu is here waiting for the Seventh Prince, and the Ninth Prince is talking to Shu Shu about the appearance of the Tenth Prince and the Tenth Fortune.
"She's darkened and lost a lot of weight. Lao Shi Fujin must be really anxious, so she has so much perseverance. You can explain it to her after seeing her. Don't be obsessed with losing weight and take Lao Shi with you."
This is the first time that Khan Amma will not care about it, but if there is a second or third time, Khan Amma will definitely not be happy..."
He had dinner at Beiliu Suo yesterday afternoon. In addition to Brother Shi who came back early, he naturally also met the hostess Shi Fujin later.
In his opinion, Shi Fujin used to be white and puffy, but now he has become black and plump.
Shu Shu did not respond immediately.
I go to Shi Fujin to act as the eldest sister-in-law, and I just pay it back once or twice. It will be annoying if it happens too often.
Also, Buyin is a person without any ideas. The tenth prince makes the final decision for the couple.
Shu Shu said: "It's better for me to persuade Master Ten. You brothers are close, so it doesn't matter what you say. It's not good for me, the sister-in-law, to dictate what my little sister-in-law does."
Brother Jiu coughed slightly and said: "I don't want you to just talk about this. It's best to teach Lao Shi Fujin the knowledge you wrote down about preparing for pregnancy. No matter whether it's Princess or Brother, let Lao Shi and the others add it first.
Otherwise, when Twelve and Thirteen get married and something happens in the backyard, Old Ten and the others will be criticized."
The eighth prince is not old, so why he is criticized is because his younger brother, who is getting married later, has a baby.
Shu Shu said: "Then let me just talk about preparing for pregnancy. I mentioned it to my tenth brother and sister once before. I don't know if I have remembered it. I will not interrupt what I said about the couple's daily routine. If the fifth sister-in-law talks about this with me,
, I don’t like to hear it either, I’m also annoyed by it.”
The example she gave, Brother Jiu thought about it, was quite annoying.
He stopped being verbose.
At this moment, the porter at the front came to report that Qi Fujin's carriage had arrived.
The couple left the house, Shu Shu got directly into Qi Fujin's carriage, and Brother Jiu went to the Yamen of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
In the past few days, the Yamen of the Ministry of Internal Affairs will prepare for the prince's first wedding ceremony.
After the decree of marriage comes down, ten and a half months will be the day of the first engagement.
Qi Fujin picked up Shu Shu, and the carriages of Si Beile Mansion and Eight Beile Mansion also moved.
Their carriage followed behind.
Qifu Jin said: "I was the last one, but it was so embarrassing..."
Shu Shu said: "Grandma Huang doesn't care about this. Besides, it's not that Seventh Sister-in-law was late that day. It was just a normal time. It's just that everyone arrived a little early."
Qi Fujin, who has always loved gossip, became curious this time and murmured to Shu Shu: "The snow was quite heavy last winter. Did Bahrain suffer another disaster?"
Otherwise, coming back twice in three years would be too intensive and not normal.
Shu Shu shook his head and said: "Probably not, otherwise there would have been news of the food allocation. Maybe he came just for the Longevity Festival."
Qi Fujin breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's okay. I collected food for the Bahrain Department the year before last. On average, each prince's brother received almost one thousand taels of silver. Our father's annual salary was only two thousand five hundred taels. On weekdays,
It’s not enough to live in, and you have to put your property and income in it. If this happens all the time in Mongolia, no one can stand it.”
It's not that Qi Fujin is stingy, it's that this kind of favor makes people feel unsure.
If this is a regular example, there are several princesses in Mongolia now. In addition to the four of the same generation, there are also princesses from the previous generation.
Shu Shu advised: "Sister-in-law Seven, don't worry about this. There will be no second time. The court and the royal family gave me dignity the year before last, mainly because of the eldest princess."
The imperial court allowed the princesses to caress their children, but it did not mean that they would eat them inside and outside.
Mongolia is suffering from bitter cold, and tribes suffer from white disasters every year. If everyone talks to the court, the court will not be able to bear it.
The eldest princess spoke once, but it was because the disaster in Bahrain was too severe, and eight out of ten livestock died. Without asking the court, there was no way to recover.
Next, the herdsmen and people will starve to death.
In addition, the eldest princess was of high rank, and Kangxi was willing to give her this dignity.
After hearing this, Qi Fujin felt relieved and lamented: "In this day and age, the more we calculate the money, the less we can use it. Favors are too heavy. Fortunately, the favors here in the capital come and go. Otherwise, if you don't eat enough food, you will have trouble sooner or later."
deficit."
The more he is a steward, the more he understands the shortcomings of money.
At the end of the sentence, Qi Fujin murmured in a low voice: "It would have been better if I had directly made the county king the year before last. I would have doubled my salary and that would be enough."
Shu Shu said nothing more.
Baylor's salary is indeed not enough to live on.
She made a budget with Walnut last year. The annual expenses for the Prince's Mansion were at least about five thousand taels of silver.
However, every family has properties, farms, shops, etc., and they also earn money.
The carriage traveled for more than half an hour and arrived at Beisansuo around 2:00 pm.
Princess Rongxian got the news yesterday that her brothers and sisters were coming today and asked someone to prepare tea and cakes.
Yesterday, as she moved into Beisan House, Yuanshan House directly assigned the kitchen master and supplies, and it was ready to start cooking.
However, last night she was given a meal by the Queen Mother, and this morning she also received the imperial reward of cakes and milk tea, so the party has not officially started yet.
It’s only thirty miles one way from the capital, so we don’t want anyone to leave on an empty stomach.
Princess Rongxian ordered the dining room to prepare the table.
Wufujin, Shifujin and Jiugege who live here came over early in the morning.
Princess Rongxian came back from the North Garden after dark last night. It was too late and everyone had not seen her yet.
Neither Wu Fujin nor Jiu Gege are talkative people, but Shi Fujin is now well-behaved.
She is the youngest, almost a generation behind Princess Rongxian.
Princess Rongxian said to Wu Fujin: "Congratulations to the fifth brother and sister. The imperial grandmother has settled her worries. She mentioned it several times yesterday and said that my little brother is not as chubby as the fifth brother when he was a child."
Wu Fujin smiled and said, "I'm almost sitting now, and I'm not too thin. I'm already 13 pounds."
Princess Rongxian gave birth twice, so she knew the general idea and nodded: "Then she is indeed not thin anymore."
When they arrived at Shifujin, Princess Rongxian became more friendly and said: "My brothers and sisters are looking at the drawings. It is the time when they are growing. They look taller than last year."
Shi Fujin nodded happily and said: "From February to now, in one and a half months, I have grown an inch and a half, haha, that's great..."
She is seventeen years old this year, her birthday is still young, and she is actually not yet sixteen years old.
I didn't exercise much before, but I have been moving more in the past two months. Not only have I lost weight, but I have also gained weight.
When Princess Rongxian saw her smiling brightly, she knew her life was comfortable, which is why she was so innocent and cute.
After greeting her two sisters-in-law, Princess Rongxian looked at Jiu Gege.
She looked kind, but in her heart she was envious of Jiu Gege.
The princess who stayed in Beijing.
Even though his salary is small and his children and grandchildren have low titles, they are not separated from each other. Compared with Fumeng, they are nothing.
Jiu Gege looked at her eldest sister, feeling a little guilty.
You must know that in addition to being raised by Concubine Hui when she was young, Princess Rongxian was also raised by the Queen Mother when she was in her teens.
It's just that she is the eldest daughter of the emperor, so many people from various ministries are watching, including the clan.
You can't raise a daughter and keep your biological daughter in the capital. Therefore, even though Princess Rongxian was favored by thousands of people, Kangxi never thought of leaving her in the capital...
