By the time a group of people came out of the yurt, it was already dusk.
The sunset is brilliant.
The Queen Mother glanced at the setting sun, then looked at the yurt, and asked the fifth elder brother: "Will it be dismantled tomorrow?"
There was a bit of reluctance in her tone.
This kind of scenery makes people happy even if it is not in Horqin.
The fifth elder brother shook his head and said: "If you don't open it, the ninth elder brother broke off the money and kept it, and he is still thinking about treating us!"
The Queen Mother looked at Brother Ninth.
The birthdays of the triplets have passed, but Brother Jiu and Shu Shu’s birthdays are still early. What’s the reason for the treat?
To be honest, the princes all live in Haidian, so it is more convenient to entertain guests than in the capital. However, the distance between the princes is different, so when they are put together, it is easy to cause trouble.
At that time, the person who entertains the guests will be thankless for the hard work, and they will have to complain in front of the emperor for no reason.
Brother Jiu smiled and said: "Originally I just wanted to treat Ni Guzhu and ask my nieces to come over and see them. Later, my grandson thought, don't waste it. You can invite two more times. Your granddaughter-in-law invites her sister-in-law and brothers and sisters.
My grandson also brought the tenth and the youngest here for a walk."
The Queen Mother praised: "It's better to use it more often to save waste. The food here is good and the fun is good. It is suitable for children and women to come here."
As for the princes, if the older ones are invited less, there will be less disputes.
Everyone has errands for no reason, and no one misses a meal.
This time the Queen Mother did not ask anyone else to get on the carriage, and only took Niguzhu to get on the carriage.
Tana sat down with Gualga.
Here, Shu Shu is in the same car with Jiu Age.
"I didn't pay attention to the calculation. Once the calculation is done, our house will not only be self-sufficient, but also have a lot of income left. Among the princes, we should be the first..."
Brother Ninth said.
Although eating a lot of food is Shu Shu's way of marrying Zhuangzi, Brother Jiu is really not a shameless person who takes advantage of his wife.
Some of the government-sold properties that have been successively acquired in recent years are directly under Shu Shu's name.
The property of a husband and wife has long been part of me and you part of me.
Shu Shu said: "The expenses in the mansion are also low. I heard Sister-in-law Qi mention it once before. The majority of the Baylor mansion still works as a servant in the mansion. In terms of population, monthly salary, three meals and four seasons of clothing, on average, one person will spend four dollars a year.
, fifty taels of silver, if there are seven or eighty people missing, the expenses will be reduced by three to four thousand taels of silver..."
Brother Ninth was stunned when he heard this and said: "There are so many, even one Baylor's salary is more than that?!"
Shu Shu said: "Yes, everyone is coming out of the palace, following the rules of the palace, and there are many servants around. For every ten masters, there will be one or two hundred servants."
Brother Jiu shook his head and said: "One by one, there is no calculation. If you work hard and eat what you have, there will always be times when you are left with nothing, and the money will only be given once."
Shu Shu thought for a while and said: "In addition to dividing the property, there should be ways to bring in money from other houses."
After hearing this, Ninth Brother became more entangled and complained to Shu Shu in a low voice, "You said Khan Ama is real? They also lowered the Zhenglan flag, so why did they give the assistant leader of the Fucha family to Lao Ba? What if?
If you give it to me, I will find a way to find a good job for Fu Qing. Our family will also be respected by the disciples. However, the Fucha family is not under my name. If Fu Qing is promoted in the future, he and I will share the same share.
Old love, without the righteousness of master and servant, cannot be treated with filial piety."
Shu Shu looked at Ninth Elder Brother, but luckily he didn't share it with Ninth Elder Brother.
The glory of the Fucha family is only beginning now.
For someone to be relied upon by Yongzheng and treated as a minister of Tuogu, the quality of Ma Qi's "eight masters party" is a bit strange.
Now the relationship between my family and the Fucha family is just right, there is a romantic relationship, but it is not too much, and there is no taboo.
After a day out, everyone was a little tired on the way back.
Brother Jiu babbled a few words, then shut up, held Shu Shu in his arms, and said: "You can rest on me, I woke up early this morning, and I didn't sleep well at noon."
Shu Shu nodded and said nothing...
In three quarters of an hour, the carriage arrived at the gate of the North Garden.
It's already time to light the lamp.
The North Garden is brightly lit.
The Queen Mother took Ni Guzhu in hand and got off the carriage. She looked at everyone and said, "Let's all go back. It's been a tiring day. Let's rest early."
Everyone responded and watched the Queen Mother enter the North Garden before turning around and heading in the direction of her brother.
The fifth elder brother held the eighteenth elder brother, lowered his head and said: "I slept at your ninth brother's house yesterday, why don't you come to your fifth brother's house today?"
The front yard and the main yard of Tousuo are all empty, so there is no shortage of places to live.
The 18th elder brother seemed to have a good temper, but he had an idea. He thought for a while and shook his head: "It's better to go to the fifth brother's house next time. Don't bother."
When the fifth elder brother saw this, he didn't say anything else. He just arrived at the door of the first house and didn't go in directly. Instead, he asked Gualjia to take Tana back first.
He sent the eighteenth brother to the door of the fifth house, and then reluctantly returned to the house.
The 18th elder brother and the Fengsheng brothers are still placed in the front yard.
Shu Shu and Brother Jiu returned to the main room.
After briefly freshening up, the couple went to the back room to see Mrs. Bo. They chatted with her for a few words before returning to the main room.
The ninth elder brother was lying on the bed, thinking about what happened to the fifth elder brother just now.
Today, the fifth elder brother has been taking care of the eighteenth elder brother.
Brother Ninth felt depressed when he thought about the reason, and said to Shu Shu: "The Yellow Sect has a theory of reincarnation. Do you think the eleventh brother has been reincarnated?"
Shu Shu himself is a heretic.
Listening to this sensitive topic, there is no scientific view.
She thought about it carefully and said: "It must have changed. People always have a place to come from and a place to go. I just don't know whose family the child is in. He is seven years old and has reached the age of enlightenment. I hope he will be rich and beautiful."
People."
Brother Jiu listened, looked at Shu Shu and said, "You should read less Buddhist books in the future!"
Although Ninth Brother looks forward to reincarnation, he does not believe in Buddhism, Taoism, ghosts and gods.
He was afraid that Shu Shu would believe it.
Shu Shu glanced at him and said: "I asked, but I don't believe it again..."
You know, later generations have even detected "neutrinos", and some of the world's top scientists are involved in metaphysics.
Brother Jiu hummed softly: "Aren't you worried that if you believe too much, everything will be in vain if you turn around? I can't stand it..."
The couple were both tired, and after a few words of boredom, they both fell into a drowsy sleep.
A good night's sleep.
Early the next morning, Brother Jiu was resurrected with full health and said to Shu Shu: "I'm going back to the city today and go to the inner-city manufacturing office to have a look..."
He is impatient and does whatever he thinks.
If you want to make clockwork equipment, you want to go to the in-house manufacturer and look at the craftsmen's brochure in the clock department.
Shu Shu said: "That master should go early and come back early. It will be hot at noon."
It's getting hotter early this year.
The Dragon Boat Festival is only half a month away, but you can already wear gauze clothes at noon.
Brother Jiu said: "The time for changing the hat given by the Ministry of Rites this year is also early. It is April 16th, which is tomorrow. The straw hat can be found by someone."
Shu Shu nodded and said, "Well, I moved here this time and brought two new hats."
After breakfast, the ninth elder brother sent the eighteenth elder brother back to the garden, then gathered with the tenth elder brother and went back to the city together.
The tenth elder brother happened to have something to do and had to go back to the clan's mansion.
Here, Shu Shu went to three places.
She is here to deliver something. In addition to cherries, she also has two kinds of Mongolian fruits and two kinds of milk tofu.
Qi Fujin directly asked people to put them on the plate and tasted them one by one. His favorite was the milk tofu with cherry meat.
"This is delicious. I didn't like milk tofu before because it was sour. Adding too much sugar made it not sour and greasy. This one is sweet and sour with the addition of dried fruits. It's much more refreshing." She praised with surprise.
Shu Shu said: "It's simple to make. It's just the usual way of making milk tofu and adding fruit pulp. The fruit pulp has not been sun-dried. This thing is easy to spoil. It was frozen before. If you want to preserve it for a longer time, you have to use dried fruit."
Qi Fujin said in surprise: "The ice cellar of your family is open now, didn't it follow the time in the palace?"
There is no ice cellar in Qibele Mansion, but there is an ice cellar in Prince Chun Mansion, just outside Chaoyang Gate.
Their family also followed the rules of the palace and started opening the ice cellar on the first day of May.
Shu Shu shook her head and said: "Last year, we followed the rules of the palace. This year, it got hot early, so we followed the rules of the outside world and opened the ice cellar at the beginning of summer, but we only transported it twice."
Qi Fujin used to have a plump figure, but she lost weight for a while after giving birth last year. Now, half a year later, she has almost recovered and has returned to a somewhat plump figure. She is most afraid of heat.
After hearing Shu Shu's words, she couldn't help but be tempted and said: "Yes, the rules outside are to open the ice cellar at the beginning of summer. There is no need to follow the rules in the palace."
They are already under the banner of the clan, and they should "do as the Romans do in the country".
After hearing this, Shu Shu couldn't help but glance at Qi Fujin's abdomen and said, "Don't be too greedy for cold. Ask the imperial doctor first."
Qi Fujin lay down, looking a little languid. He waved his hands to send the girls and women out, and then said to Shu Shu: "The man in our family is also a well-read man, and he even used his tricks on me.
!”
Listening to Qi Fujin's dissatisfied words, Shu Shu was speechless.
It's not anyone's turn to say how this couple gets along.
Qi Fujin breathed out and said: "In the past six months, the days when Master Qi stayed in the main room were the days when I was not suitable for conception. It would be strange to say that he did not do it on purpose!"
Shu Shu listened and felt aggrieved for Qifu Jin.
If only the Seventh Prince had studied this earlier and had two fewer children with Nalagge, the Seven Belle Mansion would not be what it is now.
It's just that this involves her brother and sister-in-law's affair, so she can't say much.
She looked at Qi Fujin and said, "As long as you are good, your two nieces will be protected."
Qi Fujin nodded and said: "I have already figured it out. After these two births, not only the dangers of life and death, but also the situation, I am also afraid."
Although the strong melon is not sweet, it can still be eaten after two bites, but compared with struggling to have a son and living a good life, Qi Fujin still wants to live a good life.
When Shu Shu heard this, she felt sad and said: "When I gave birth for the first time, I was scared to death. I really wished I hadn't been a sister-in-law at home..."
It’s sad about giving birth.
First birth is the most dangerous.
Qi Fujin thought about the pregnant Jiu Gege and said to Shi Fujin: "This is the second time for the tenth sibling. Her body and bones are fine. There is nothing to worry about. The fifth princess is probably worried as well."
Shu Shu said: "I only look forward to Princess Xiao's mother. Concubine De's mother is slender and has successfully given birth six times."
After Qi Fujin finished speaking, he also felt it was unlucky and said: "Yes, the fifth princess will probably follow the concubine..."
