They were Concubine Yi's natal family, and they were the elders, so even if they didn't like her, it would be hard to say anything.
Whether Jin is allowed to enter the palace depends on Concubine Yi's wishes.
According to the rules of the palace, before and after a concubine gives birth, her maternal family can be arranged to accompany her in the palace.
This is so that young concubines can prepare for childbirth better and avoid missing their relatives or having others take care of them inadequately.
However, when Concubine Yi was of age, both her biological mother and aunt's mother had passed away, and only Jin's sister-in-law could be considered a close person to her mother's family.
The younger generation is indifferent to relatives, but who knows what Concubine Yi thinks.
After a while, Walnut brought people back.
"The empress woke up and said that the fruits in the Second Institute have dried up. If there are any more here, when Fujin passes by, he can take some with him..."
Shu Shu then ordered: "Go to the dining room and pack two boxes. Not only do you want dried fruits, but also a portion of dried carrots and carrots."
There is no shortage of fresh fruits in Yikun Palace.
It’s just that during Yi Fei’s puerperium, she should not eat raw or cold food.
But now it's summer again, and it's not pleasant to eat meat and fish all day long, so I think of the dried fruits here at Wen Er Suo.
Before the southern tour, Shu Shu asked people to prepare a lot of them and sent them to Yikun Palace, so Concubine Yi would remember this.
After the fruits were dried and packed, the sisters-in-law went to Yikun Palace.
The same apse is different from yesterday.
The smell of blood in the room was almost gone, and only the smell of agarwood and mint dissipated the heat.
On the Kang table under the south window, there is a jade mountain measuring one and a half feet, made of Nanyang jade. It is half mountain and half water, which makes it look a bit more cool.
Concubine Yi had a gauze veil on her forehead and was sitting on the edge of the kang. She was looking down at the swaddling clothes next to her, her face full of tenderness.
Two young women in their twenties stood next to them, staring at the baby without blinking.
Seeing her sisters-in-law coming in, Concubine Yi waved her hand and called them forward, saying: "Come and take a look, I just fed the milk, and I'm about to fall asleep again..."
Wufujin and Shushu stepped forward.
When she saw the baby's appearance clearly, she fell silent.
She should be praised, but she didn't know where to start.
She glanced at the two little ladies and took care of them like this?
Didn't you say give me a wipe?
Seeing that she didn't move, Yi Fei raised her head and looked over. When she saw Wu Fujin's expression clearly, she burst out laughing and said: "Do you feel that you are too tired? It's because I don't have taboos and eat too greasy food, just like Lao Jiu did in the past.
Similarly, I also disliked it back then, but this time it’s weird and I think it’s pretty good. With this, it’s like multiple shells, and the child doesn’t like to get sick, so it’s not a bad thing.”
Wufujin said shyly: "My daughter-in-law is not knowledgeable enough. She just thought that the wet nurse didn't take good care of her, so she didn't wipe it clean."
The little baby, with its eyes open, seemed to be looking at people or the roof, and then yawned delicately.
Concubine Yi waved her hand to the woman next to her, and the woman carefully carried her little brother down.
"Like a little pig, he can sleep."
Concubine Yi said to the two of them.
Both laughed.
Concubine Yi signaled Peilan to bring a stool over and asked the two of them to sit down. She said, "I'm in a good position. The nuns around my younger brother are also qualified. The women in charge under my name are also taking turns to work in the palace. You guys
Don’t worry, just do whatever you have to do...the knife."
At this point, she looked at Shu Shu and said: "I guess the Holy Master should have gone to the garden. It's too hot in this palace, especially the elder brother's house at the back. The houses are dense and not as broad as the East and West Palaces.
You tell Lao Jiu, if you can follow me, you should go out with the Holy Driver. The weather is getting hotter day by day. Even if you go back to provide ice, it will still be enough. It’s not easy for you juniors to open your mouth and ask for more."
Shu Shu said: "Jiuye works in the Ministry of Internal Affairs every day, so it is not convenient to go to Haidian."
Even if it's hot, it's no longer worse than ten days and a half.
Yi Fei said: "Anyway, don't worry about me. Today is just fine. I can barely see people. In a few days, I will be so dirty that I won't be able to see anyone..."
The current custom is not to wash your hair or take a bath during confinement.
Winter is fine, but summer is really hard.
Shu Shu didn't want to be clever at this time.
Sometimes there are no rules in the palace, and sometimes there are the most rules.
After the palace concubine received a diagnosis of Xilai from the imperial doctor's Ping'an Pulse diagnosis, all the subsequent processes during the labor and puerperium period were planned.
Concubine Yi looked at Wu Fujin again and said: "You don't have to worry about it when you are outside the palace. Just go and greet the Queen Mother according to the rules, and come back when I am out of confinement."
Wu Fujin said: "Fifth Master is also thinking about it. Yesterday he went back and asked for wine. He said that he was worried about giving birth to a younger sister. In that case, he would not be able to bear it even if he married Horqin. Even if he wanted to choose a son-in-law from the Mongolian prince Taijili, he would not bear it.
Stay in the capital and open a mansion..."
Concubine Yi smiled and said: "This is too much to worry about..."
Shu Shu didn't answer. Brother Jiu spent half the night in ink and said he would be a good brother in the future.
As for how to be a good brother?
Then refer to the brothers above, for example, learn from the elder brother to lift high, learn from the fourth elder brother to stare at and draw red, and learn from the seventh elder brother to teach Buku.
Shu Shu felt that Brother Jiu was overcorrecting and might become Xiao Shiba’s least favorite brother!
It's just that she didn't remind her, she just waited and saw.
After chatting for a while, Concubine Yi became hungry and complained to the two of them: "First, one person ate and two people took supplements, which greatly increased his appetite. Now he is eating four or five times a day, and he is still hungry very quickly. He is probably getting fat again."
…”
Wufu Jin said: "Maybe it's because my vitality has been damaged, and I need to make up for it."
Shu Shu also said: "Your Majesty, please have some snacks on hand, don't leave them empty."
Save yourself from eating more when you feel hungry.
Speaking of food, Shu Shu took several small jars from Walnut and placed them beside Yifei's Kang.
Peilan took a clean towel, boiled it with hot water, and wiped Yifei's hands.
Concubine Yi looked at the four small jars, her eyes sparkling, and said, "What are you doing with so many kinds of fruits?"
Shu Shu opened it with her own hands and said: "There is just one kind of dried apple, the one next to it is dried red dates, and the other two are dried vegetables, which are also baked and can be eaten as snacks."
The dried apples are sprinkled with icing sugar, the dried carrots and carrots are sprinkled with a little snowflake salt, and the dried red dates are plain.
When Yifei heard that it was dried vegetables, she immediately lost interest. But when she saw the thing, she found that the color was bright and beautiful, so she took a piece of pink dried radish and put it in her mouth.
"Not nagging at all, crispy."
She ate happily and said, "It doesn't have any fishy smell, and it's a little sweet."
Seeing this, Shu Shu reminded him: "It should be in moderation. If you like to eat it, you can crush it and put it in the porridge."
It is actually edible, according to scientific explanation.
But people at this time believed in all kinds of old sayings.
According to the rules handed down, during confinement, you can eat some hard food in moderation to strengthen your bones, but you shouldn't eat too much, otherwise your teeth will be injured, and your teeth will easily become loose as you get older.
Concubine Yi nodded and said: "Well, taste them all first, then put them in the porridge later."
After Yifei "tasted" less than half of the jar of each item, she felt a little sleepy and her eyelids became heavy.
She didn't hold on, rinsed her mouth, and said to the two of them: "Okay, I have to take a nap, my brain is numb after eating so much..."
Wufujin hesitated for a moment and did not mention Jin's desire to enter the palace.
Although she felt that it was pitiful for Jin to be so cautious now, she still remembered the situation when her family first arrived in the capital last year.
Nowadays, I am timid, which is not a bad thing.
Shu Shu and Wu Fujin both stood up and watched Concubine Yi lie down before retreating.
Walking into the corridor, he said comfortably: "I asked someone to make jelly this morning, and my sister-in-law just happened to have a taste."
This is the meal.
The weather is hot, and neither husband nor wife likes to eat very much.
There happened to be mung bean powder in the dining room, so Shu Shu asked Xiaotang to make mung bean jelly in the morning.
Wu Fujin waved his hand and said: "The emperor's grandmother asked me to go over and have a meal before, and we can try it next time."
Shu Shu said: "Then bring some over and give the Imperial Grandmother a taste. It is very simple to make. When the weather is hot, it will also be appetizing to make a meal with it."
Here and Ningshou Palace often communicate with each other in terms of food.
This jelly is something that has never been seen in the palace before.
Wu Fujin nodded and said: "The Imperial Grandmother must be happy. I paid my respects to the Imperial Grandmother this morning. It's a little less busy than when I came from Nanxing."
While talking, the two sisters arrived at the second house.
Shu Shu asked Xiaotang to put a lot of jelly, and then the garnishes of the jelly, cucumber shreds, and the sesame sauce with balsamic vinegar.
She personally escorted Wu Fujin to the entrance of the Royal Garden, and watched the master and servants drift away before returning to the second residence.
Walnut said: "Are you really not going to follow me to the garden this time?"
That time in the first month of the year, she was staying at No. 2 Station and had not been to the West Garden yet, so she was curious about it.
Shu Shu said: "This is not the time to go, I have to wait until the queen is out of confinement."
What's more, what Brother Jiu was worried about before was that if the princes from the palace went to the garden together, they wouldn't be able to live there at all.
During the first month of the year, the couple was fine and still alone in Nansuo.
The fifteenth brother is young and lives in the smallest courtyard, which is barely enough.
The remaining 10th and 12th princes share a courtyard, and the 13th and 14th princes share a courtyard. They live in a very cramped environment.
This time the couple did not follow, which could be regarded as making room for the Tenth Prince and his wife.
It was still early, so she went to the study room to read books.
I also read the secretary's notes before, and I noticed that they focused more on health care and paid little attention to childbirth.
Even if the information was developed in the previous life and everyone was familiar with some childbirth knowledge, in this life we can't just rely on it.
This patch needs to be made up.
After reading for half an hour and copying several pages of notes, it was early afternoon.
Shu Shu left the study and waited for Brother Jiu to come back and have lunch together.
This time when they visited the South, they started eating three meals a day.
In the past, it was breakfast (from Maozheng to Chenchu), dinner (from noon to Weizheng), and late meal (from Youchu to Xuchu).
Now it is breakfast (around Chenchu), lunch (around noon), and dinner (around Youchu).
At two quarters in the afternoon, Brother Ninth came back from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, with He Yuzhu holding an umbrella next to him.
The person who was cheerful when he went out in the morning is now frowning and looking unhappy.
Shu Shu saw something was wrong with him and said, "What's going on?"
Brother Jiu sighed and said: "The tin pillar is gone..."
Shu Shu was stunned and said after a while: "Okay, why is it gone?"
Although Xi Zhu's health was not good, it was just bad.
My uncle was also frail before, but he lived to be close to his fiftieth birthday.
Brother Jiu frowned and said: "Weren't we detained in the Zongren Mansion before? The prison there was a little shady and cool, so I had some symptoms of catching a cold. The Zongren Mansion also called a doctor to see me, but I just had a cold. As a result, I vomited blood this morning.
, even the imperial doctor was called, and the needle was administered but it was of no use, the lung lumps were vomited out, and the person died..."
The couple looked at each other with solemn expressions on their faces.
That statue of Wenchang Gong and that meteor brand!
Shu Shu also remembered something inexplicably, that is, in the book review section of "Rebirth in the Late Years of Kangxi", some readers commented on the author, saying that the author was poisonous and that the protagonist loved his brother to death...
