On the way, after the ninth elder brother told the tenth elder brother about the reaction from Dutong Mansion, the two brothers became quiet.
Not very interested.
Brother Jiu thought about the Dutong Mansion. Even though his father-in-law and mother-in-law didn't mean to blame him at all, he still felt embarrassed.
I originally wanted to help, and even prepared the wedding room, but it ended up adding to the chaos.
The tenth prince was not feeling well either.
In the past, he was sincerely close to Yin De, but now he realizes that he is just being sentimental.
When they arrived outside the Xinwu Institute, Brother Jiu hesitated and said, "Should I go and tell Khan Ama that the marriage between the two families is over?"
Before doing this, he would definitely have complained directly without hesitation.
But now I feel unsure.
His identity as a "beloved son" is not good enough.
No one can stand being picked on all the time.
He was a little frightened.
Brother Ten thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "It's not necessary for the time being. If Mr. Qi can do something about it, it will only take a few days. If Khan Ama has any questions, he will send someone to tell Brother Ninth."
Brother Jiu nodded hurriedly and said: "Well, well, Master Chuan, I will come over again..."
The brothers said goodbye and went back to the yard.
Shu Shu was upset and anxious yesterday, but now she is calm.
Fu Song is not that fragile, so thinking at the best, this is not a bad thing.
No one can predict the ups and downs in a person's life.
Previously, the Tong family and Duke Niu Hulu were here, and Niu Hulu was in danger of getting married randomly, so naturally he didn't care about being picky.
But who let Tong Guowei's family be sent away?
Aling'a also remained silent, not daring to cause trouble.
Now that the crisis is over, the marriage will naturally not be willing to settle.
Shu Shu didn't dare think about what would happen if she suppressed her temper and reluctantly married, and then despised Fu Song from the bottom of her heart.
But she also regretted it.
What I thought before was very good. Both of them have shortcomings, and when they come together, they just cherish each other.
But in fact, due to some strange combination of circumstances, she had never really seen that big princess.
If you meet a real person and see something inappropriate, you won't let your family work in vain.
When Brother Ninth came back, he thought Shu Shu would be depressed and anxious.
After all, his father-in-law and mother-in-law were worried, and he also knew that his wife treated Fusong no worse than her brothers.
Shu Shu is sewing sachets.
The base is made of light gold lining, with a safety buckle underneath.
The sachet is in the shape of an ingot, and the drawstring is made of diamond knot woven with golden silk thread.
Summer clothes are mostly light-colored, so this sachet doesn’t look dry even if it’s light gold.
Brother Jiu sat next to her, feeling much calmer, and watched without blinking.
Shu Shu raised her head, looked him over, and said, "You made me guess?"
Brother Jiu nodded and repeated Yin De's words.
Shu Shu sneered and said: "That's Bahrain, not the watermelon field in Daxing, it's a thousand miles away. How long does it take for this letter to go back and forth? It will take a month if it's faster, and it won't be longer if it's slower..."
The results of it?
I have already had the intention of repeating it, but I didn't show it at all.
Brother Jiu shook his head and said: "Their family is not authentic, we should stay away from each other in the future..."
Yin De's house is just south of the Prince's Mansion, separated by a street and more than a mile in front and back.
And because Yin De is now the head of the prince's palace, the ninth elder brother and Shu Shu previously listed their family as a family to move around.
"I'm at a loss!"
Brother Jiu suddenly remembered this and said: "This Yin De was recommended by me. At that time, I wanted to help the old eleven, and I didn't even think about asking for favors from Yin De. I really took advantage of him! No, next time
See you, I have to make it clear that this thank you gift is worth one share!"
Shu Shu said: "How about Fusong?"
Brother Jiu said: "Fusong is really a 'blessing in disguise'. He seems to be quite motivated and told me that he plans to take part in the Eight Banners imperial examination!"
Shu Shu listened with concern and said: "But to participate in the Eight Banners imperial examination, you need the guarantee of the clan leader..."
In terms of bloodline, Fusong is a descendant of Shuerhaqi, and the head of this branch is Prince Jian Yabu.
However, apart from their ancestral status, his great-grandfather's branch is no longer considered a member of Prince Jian's family in terms of etiquette and law.
Their family is of its own kind.
Reporting names in this department will be troublesome.
It's not like ordinary bannermen who only need to be accompanied by a collar and a protective gear.
Brother Jiu said: "I will go back to the Rites Yamen and ask carefully what the regulations are. From the time I entered the customs to the present, the Fusong family has many yellow belts in addition to clan status, and some red belts. These people cannot be allowed to beg for food."
, what’s the point? Allowing them to take the imperial examination and serve as officials is also a way out.”
Shu Shu said: "When it comes to homework, Fusong is better than Xiaosan and Xiaosi..."
In addition, the Eight Banners is based on riding and archery, and those who win the exam must try riding and archery.
Fusong's riding and shooting skills are also unproblematic.
It's just that time is too hasty.
It's already mid-July, and it's just over a month until Autumn.
"It's because I didn't think too much before. If I had thought about the Eight Banners Imperial Examination earlier, hired a gentleman last year and prepared for it for a year, it would have been better than rushing like this."
Shu Shu regretted a little.
Brother Jiu said: "Fusong is only sixteen, don't worry, it's not too late now, just accumulate experience in this subject. As for sir..."
He thought of a person and said, "Master Fahai came from the Eight Banners Imperial Examination. Master Huihui took Fusong over to visit and see if he could teach him his experience."
Fahai was born in the Eight Banners imperial examination and became a Jinshi in the 33rd year of Kangxi's reign.
Now I am walking in the study, and I am also one of the teachers of Thirteenth Prince and Fourteenth Prince.
After hearing this, Shu Shu thought of Ma Qi and said: "Sir, let's put aside Fusong's matter for now. Is it time for you to visit the teacher? Since the emperor has said, it's inappropriate for us to be silent like this. We can't wait for Master Ma."
Come to your door..."
Brother Jiu felt his tooth hurt and frowned: "Then why are you visiting me? You can't bring up two pieces of bacon, right?"
Shu Shu said: "There is no precedent, so let's follow the ancient ritual and wait until the 'three festivals and two birthdays' before giving anything else..."
The ancient ritual consists of six rites, namely celery, lotus seeds, red beans, red dates, longan, and bacon.
After hearing this, Brother Jiu grinned and said, "Ma Qi must be frightened!"
Shu Shu felt that Kangxi was a bit unkind.
No effort should be spared in employing people.
Ma Qi was so full of shortcomings that he even threw his ninth elder brother over to learn etiquette.
She said: "With the status of teacher and student, I am still an elder, so I should be more respectful."
Ma Qi was about the same age as Kangxi, and his family had a long history of officials.
His Ama is very famous, he is Mi Sihan, a famous official in the early Kangxi Dynasty.
During the San Francisco Rebellion, Mi Sihan served as the Minister of Household Affairs and made great contributions in raising grain and grass.
It's a pity that he died of illness in middle age.
The Ma Qi family fell into silence. It was not until their brothers became officials one after another and Jane died in the Sacred Heart that the family regained its glory.
Brother Jiu curled his lips, still feeling at a loss, and said: "How can this be reasonable? If a gentleman falls out of thin air, we have to give gifts five times a year. If we give them to others, we can still hope that the gift will be reciprocated, and we won't lose much. But here we have a teacher."
Given the birthright, can we still expect a return gift from their family?"
Shu Shu said: "Don't worry, Lord Ma Qi knows how to measure, and he won't let us suffer too much."
Brother Jiu said: "Really?"
Shu Shu nodded and said: "I will reciprocate politely, don't worry..."
The roly-poly of three dynasties is just a joke.
Brother Jiu is not happy with multiple teachers, and Ma Qi may not be happy with multiple students.
This teacher-student relationship is probably just a matter of face.
Brother Jiu felt more comfortable now and said, "That's fine, but we can't lose everything."
Everything is ready.
It’s just that there is no bacon this time.
Shu Shu ordered the kitchen to bake several strips of biltong, salt them first, then bake them dry, and then smoke them with fruit wood.
Halfway through, the fragrance will come out.
The eldest brother happened to come out of the garden. He hadn't had dinner yet. He smelled the smell and stopped at the door of the fourth house. He politely told the eunuch, "Go over and ask the ninth brother if he's back. If he is, I'll tell you."
Tell him that I don’t have a meal here and ask him to bring dinner over..."
My brother, there is nothing unorthodox about a meal.
Because Sisuo had eaten three meals, it was not yet dinner time.
After hearing the message from the eldest brother's attendant, the ninth brother didn't say anything. He nodded and said, "I understand, I will send it to your master in a moment."
After the eunuch left, Brother Jiu said to Shu Shu: "Look, the widower is so pitiful that he can't even eat hot food..."
Shu Shu: "..."
Brother Ninth has always been enthusiastic, and the chain of events caused by ice a few days ago caused Concubine Hui trouble.
He also wanted to repay one or two.
If he can help his elder brother, he will be more than happy to do so.
He told He Yuzhu: "Pretend more, I will go over and eat with my eldest brother, so that he will not be lonely."
When He Yuzhu went down, the ninth elder brother hesitated and said: "I asked before, the eldest brother doesn't always stay here. It's only one day in three days, and the dining room at the head is not complete. It is probably for this reason.
Why don't you tell me that if he rests here, just ask someone to come here to pick up the meal?"
"It's just a little effort, so it doesn't matter. It's just that it will make it more difficult for the fourth sister-in-law and the fifth sister-in-law."
Shu Shu hesitated and asked.
After all, they live next to each other and the two are sisters-in-law.
Brother Jiu said disapprovingly: "It's okay. Who doesn't know that our food is good? Even if someone complains about it, they will only say that the elder brother is greedy. We are younger brothers and the younger sister-in-law is just kind-hearted."
After that, he got up and walked out.
When he walked to the door, he remembered and said: "Don't be fooled if you eat alone, let a few girls accompany you..."
Shu Shu stood up, picked up the sachet she had just sewn, grabbed a handful of dried mint from the box and put it inside, sprinkled a few drops of mint dew, tied it up, and hung it up for Brother Jiu herself.
Said: "There is a lot of water here, lush vegetation, and a lot of mosquitoes. I wear this to avoid being bitten..."
Brother Jiu looked down, satisfied, and took He Yuzhu out of the fourth house.
Before waiting for the first place, I saw the fourth elder brother coming back. The ninth elder brother stood beside me and said honestly: "Fourth brother, you just came back..."
Fourth Brother got off his horse, nodded, and his eyes fell on the food box in He Yuzhu's hand.
Brother Jiu followed his eyes and explained: "It's for the eldest brother. The eldest brother is not working there..."
At this point, he said: "I plan to eat with my eldest brother to avoid being deserted. Fourth brother, since you have just come back, you don't have a meal even if you want to come. How about we go together..."
