Chapter 167: Delivery (Second update, please vote for me)
Although they were closely related by blood, Shu Shu had never heard of this person in her maternal grandfather's family.
Obviously, this Mrs. Taiji has no contact with this family.
Otherwise, Eni would not explain anything without saying a word.
Such relatives are just going through the motions...
There was movement outside again, the sound of footsteps "ta da da da".
Immediately, I heard Brother Thirteen shouting outside: "Sister-in-law Nine, Thirteen is full, are there any more hawthorn balls?"
Shu Shu's hair was loose and it was difficult to go out, so she said through the window: "Yes, I will ask your ninth brother to send it to you later..."
The thirteenth brother responded cheerfully, and the footsteps of "ta da da da" faded away.
Brother Jiu opened the door curtain and came in. He was unhappy when he saw Shu Shu's hair disheveled: "Isn't it just washed the day before yesterday? Why wash it again?"
Shu Shu stood up with a smile and stepped forward: "It's convenient to wash up now. Don't worry, it will get cold in two days and it will definitely not be like this..."
Brother Jiu rolled his eyes at her: "When will you be able to listen to me honestly? This is not home. What if you catch a cold when you go out? Besides, it doesn't matter how many days have passed and how dirty your hair is..."
A pleasant smile.
That's unbearable.
If conditions allowed, she could not wait to wash it every day.
How can there be so much dust at home!
Even if I wash my hair every other day, the shampoo will be gray.
I always feel like I can't touch my hair, otherwise I'll touch the sand.
She has been exercising so much in the past few years. If she can still catch a cold even after washing her hair, wouldn't it be in vain?
However, she also knew what was good and understood Brother Jiu's concerns.
A guard is a guard. If you don't treat them kindly for a few days, that one will become a simple Amma.
In the entire retinue, unless Kangxi or the Queen Mother was feeling unwell or others were sick, in order to prevent the infection from spreading to others, they had to recuperate on the spot.
It was okay when I was in the palace before, it was my own territory, and I could recover from my illness.
If you stay in Mongolia, there will be many inconveniences, and you will easily be disliked by your elders.
Seeing that Shu Shu stopped talking, Brother Jiu looked over and said with some seriousness: "I'm not afraid of trouble, I'm afraid of making you uncomfortable... You also said that you have a chronic illness, which is easy to get when the seasons change. It's still Lord Ling's illness.
...Catching a cold is a trivial matter, how can it lead to serious symptoms? Even if the imperial doctor is left behind, he will have to look up old medical records, and your illness will no longer be hidden..." At the end of the sentence, he lowered his voice.
Shu Shu held Brother Jiu's hand and felt warm in her heart.
The ninth elder brother was afraid that she would not understand the seriousness of the matter, so he had to add again: "Anyway, don't do it these years. If the palace knows about it later, it will be fine after treatment... I will give birth to the little elder brother in a few years, and the little princess will be fine."
, just say that the postpartum care was not done well, which caused the old disease...it is a good thing to have a child, and no one can be picky..."
Shu Shu looked at Brother Jiu without hiding the admiration in his eyes.
Awesome, my lord!
Haven’t seen you for a long time, you’ve become a screenwriter!
Not only is it reasonable, but the character's psychology is well understood.
Brother Jiu pinched her face: "Stupid, you are honest with everyone, what will you do if you leave me?"
The hairs on Shu Shu's back stood up.
Crispy and numb.
Awkward!
When did I become a little spoiled wife?!
this……
Not only is he the pillar of the family, he should also be responsible for his wisdom!
Shu Shu felt like roaring in her heart.
Brother Jiu looked very satisfied: "Remember, I will listen to you from now on..."
Shu Shu smiled, complaining in her heart.
She wanted to save her worries, but she didn't dare...
After all, Brother Jiu is rarely smart when he acts and often not smart.
Seeing that Brother Jiu's tail was about to curl up, Shu Shu said with concern: "I've made this recipe and eaten it for ten days. Tomorrow I'll be free in the morning, so I'll ask the imperial doctor to ask for Ping'an pulse to see if the recipe can be adjusted.
…”
To say that Brother Jiu was still a juicy cabbage just now, after hearing this sentence, he immediately wilted.
"How long will I have to drink bitter soup? It's almost a full moon..."
Brother Jiu complained plaintively: "I'm so bored, I've lost weight..."
Shu Shu resumed his status as a parent and comforted him with a gentle voice: "If you bear it any longer, now you are under the emperor's nose. If you stop taking the medicine, you will have to trouble his old man to ask..."
Brother Jiu nodded helplessly and said pitifully: "Okay, I'll listen to you. If I don't bear with you..."
Shu Shu, on the other hand, refused to give up and said: "When I get back to Beijing..."
"I can't stop it even after I return to Beijing..."
Brother Jiu sighed and said: "I said I would take medicine for half a year, but it turned out to be just to trick us... I asked more about it, at least it will take a full year, and we have to endure it..."
Shu Shu said: "I heard that there are many patent medicine shops outside the front door. Let's go there and see if we can make the decoction into a patent medicine... Taking pills will be better than drinking bitter juice..."
Brother Jiu stood up immediately, his face brightened: "Why didn't you think of this? You don't have to wait to return to Beijing, I will go to the Xingzai Pharmacy tomorrow..."
Shu Shu took a box of hawthorn pills and handed them to him: "I'll go and deliver them quickly, so that my thirteenth brother won't have to rush..."
Brother Jiu sat down again and refused to move. He called He Yuzhu and ordered: "Go and deliver...just what I said, let Master Ten take a pill too. He ate a lot of mutton in the evening. No matter if he is bloated or not,
If you are hungry, eat first and prepare..."
He Yuzhu responded and took the hawthorn pills.
Brother Ninth's body smells like roast mutton.
Shu Shu thought of her piece of mutton and gritted her teeth and said: "I specifically told you, but I only left a piece of meat as big as half a palm... Fortunately, the seventh sister-in-law took me to dinner. If I were waiting for my barbecue, I would still have it."
Be hungry..."
Brother Jiu said confidently: "Why is it only half a palm? It is obviously as big as a palm!"
Shu Shu grabbed Brother Jiu's hand, raised it and spread it out: "Shouldn't it be so big? I heard He Yuzhu said that I cut the meat myself, but I didn't know it?"
"I cut it according to your palm!"
Brother Ninth is still being stubborn.
Shu Shu stretched out her hand and covered Brother Jiu's hand. Her long and thin fingers were only half an inch shorter than Brother Jiu's.
Brother Jiu changed his words and said with a bit of flattery: "I listened to your instructions tonight and ate a few pieces of mutton... Seeing that others were eating well, I was really greedy, so I ate a piece of mutton tail.
Oil……"
What can Shushu do?
I can only praise it.
"I'm so kind. It makes people feel at ease following me..."
Brother Jiu said proudly: "Of course, I am a pure man. He spits and nails every time. If he promises, he will do it..."
When he said this, he felt disgusted: "I won't be like you, saying what I say, but not changing, and looking for reasons for myself..."
Shu Shu good-naturedly did not refute.
Isn't this a good thing today?
This should be painted with a small red flower.
Wait until tomorrow when you misbehave and then clean it up.
At this moment, He Yuzhu came back from delivering the medicine, with a strange look on his face: "Sir, the Thirteenth Master said I want another box..."
Brother Jiu showed his displeasure: "A box of six pills is not enough? Is this a snack?"
Shu Shu had already stood up, took out another box, and wanted to hand it to He Yuzhu.
Brother Jiu stopped him: "No! I can't get used to his problem! The pills cost one or two silver each, so I took six pills in one breath..."
Shu Shu advised: "Children are like this, their stomachs are like bottomless pits. How can they restrain themselves after seeing snacks?"
Seeing his master's misunderstanding, He Yuzhu hurriedly explained: "It's not that the Thirteenth Master ate it. It was because the Master and the Fifth Master were there when the slave passed by just now. The Master snatched the box of meatballs..."
It turned out that the eldest brother had eaten a lot of barbecue tonight, and his stomach was bloated. He remembered that he had heard about "Hawthorn Pills" before, and was embarrassed to come directly to Shu Shu to ask for it, so he took the fifth brother to have his beard cut off.
After figuring out the whole story, Brother Jiu stopped stopping him.
He Yuzhu went next door to deliver medicine again.
Brother Jiu's face showed regret: "Is the boss also imitating adultery? Why doesn't he come and ask for it from us? Then I won't believe that he is the eldest brother. If he has the nerve to take our things for nothing, he will definitely squeeze out the benefits...
"
Shu Shu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Hasn't the foreign debt been cleared? Why do you still care about money? We are still accepting the banknotes given by Prince Zhijun in advance without repaying the gift..."
On the ninth elder brother's birthday the day before yesterday, he received a subsidy from Concubine Yi and a household ticket from Kangxi.
The two added up are ten thousand taels.
After the couple discussed it, they decided to pay off the fifth elder brother's account after returning to Beijing and cashing the account checks.
After all, the emperor's concubine was still watching from above, knowing that the reason for their embarrassment was because of this foreign debt.
If it is delayed any longer, it will be suspected of defaulting on the bill.
As for selling pills or buying tea fields next, Shu Shu's dowry money will be used mainly.
Just in case...
If the emperor is really jealous or wants to make this arrangement to someone else, he will have additional concerns.
Whether it's his son's livelihood or money, the mother can have the final say.
No father-in-law has the nerve to interfere in the daughter-in-law's business here...
Thinking of this, the couple looked at each other and felt amazing.
"I never thought that I, Khan Ama, and my empress would be two different families..."
Brother Jiu was surprised and said uneasily: "But it has been different since I got married. Isn't it too unfilial..."
Shu Shu shook his head and said: "Not only is this true for you, but also for me... I never thought that there are people in this world who are more important than Ama and Enie... But after getting married, and having you, there will be more in the future."
There are little brother and little princess... Even if they are not more important than Ama and Enie, they are equally important... I, Enie, said that this is passed down from our ancestors for the reproduction of future generations... Parents love us, and we love our children.
, passed down from generation to generation..."
"This is wrong!"
Brother Jiu was serious: "How much have our parents done for us? How much can we compare to the baby that just landed?! We don't owe our children, but we owe our parents... The kindness of our parents will not be repaid to our parents."
, but to leave your love and care to the next generation, this is unfilial!"
