Brother Jiu really couldn't listen anymore and made his footsteps louder.
Shu Shu glanced at the door.
Walnut picked up the door curtain, and the ninth and tenth brothers came in.
Shi Fujin had already stood up, looked at Brother Ten, and said happily: "Master Ten!"
The tenth elder brother nodded and raised his chin in the direction of the ninth elder brother.
Shifujin said obediently: "Brother Ninth..."
Brother Jiu glanced at Shi Fujin angrily.
"One husband and two wives" makes sense. In Manchuria, there were direct marriages in the early years, and there were also polygamous wives in Mongolia.
But where did “one wife and two husbands” come from?
Does Abahai still have such old customs?
Could it be from the Mongolian side of Mobei?
The Abahai tribe is a Mongolian tribe that went south...
Brother Shi was astute and felt that what he heard before might be a misunderstanding, so he asked Shi Fujin: "What did you just say? Didn't you say that you need to take care of glutinous rice balls and sesame candies?"
Shi Fujin pulled Brother Shi's sleeve and said: "I was just telling Sister-in-law Jiu about this. It turns out that glutinous rice balls and sesame candy may not be a pair. They may be sisters or brothers. Then we can't have a baby rabbit. We have to have another baby."
Paired with a rabbit..."
Brother 10 understood clearly that this was a baby rabbit, and the male and female had not been separated yet.
Then I understood what I meant.
Whether it is "one husband and two wives" or "one wife and two husbands" depends on fate.
The tenth elder brother couldn't help but smile and glanced at the ninth elder brother.
The ninth elder brother glared at the tenth elder brother.
Don’t say anything inappropriate, is this the right thing to say?
When he faced Shu Shu, he had already changed his appearance and said softly: "Did the child make trouble for you today?"
Shu Shu shook her head and said, "Be good, why did I come back at noon?"
Previously, Shu Shu sympathized with his hard work and wouldn't let him come back at noon.
Otherwise, it would be very hard to make two round trips from Nancheng to Beicheng in one day.
Brother Ninth said: "I'm fine this afternoon, I'll be back soon, and I just happened to see Old Ten coming back too..."
The Yamen is about to be sealed.
All the official business that can be handled has almost been taken care of.
The tenth elder brother remembered something and said to Shu Shu: "Sister-in-law Ninth, the clan member Noluob of Shun Cheng Palace has been transferred from the deputy capital of the Han Army under the red flag to the deputy capital of Manchuria under the blue flag."
Shu Shu knew that although this was the same level, it was still a step closer. He nodded and said, "That's really good news. Tell Ah Mou later."
Mrs. Bo is quite close to this concubine, and the Dong E family is also close to this branch.
The ninth elder brother looked at the tenth elder brother and said, "Ama Khan is going to Nanyuan in a few days for a siege. Are you going?"
The tenth prince hesitated for a moment and said: "Look at Khan Ama's side!"
He was actually quite interested in Nanyuan, because the Dong family moved to Nanyuan after deposing his concubine.
In the early years, during the funeral of Concubine Wen Xi, Mr. Dong said a lot of strange things in front of his tenth elder brother.
Because of this, the tenth elder brother misunderstood Zhang Bin and almost took his anger out on the thirteenth elder brother.
But Brother Ten was also tempted.
He is now older and has his own judgment.
Even though he had never dealt with Zhang Bin, he knew his imperial father somewhat.
If Zhang Bin were to be such a frivolous person, the emperor would not tolerate her.
And Concubine Yi's mother, who has a good relationship with her mother-in-law, will not just sit back and watch.
It should be a lie deliberately provoked by Mr. Dong.
Brother Jiu said: "I don't plan to go. If you want to go, just use the carriage here."
Brother Ten nodded.
Shu Shu had already called Walnut to her side and whispered about adding vegetables for lunch.
Previously, we only planned to eat for the two of us, so we didn't ask for the side dishes. In addition to a hand-made lamb chop, a vegetable roll, and two side dishes.
With the addition of ten elder brothers and nine elder brothers, these are definitely not enough.
Shu Shu ordered walnuts and added a pot of steamed pork and stir-fried pickled cabbage noodles.
The staple food also includes a bowl of mutton noodle soup and a cage of mutton siomai.
Brother Ten was already looking forward to it after hearing half a sentence.
All are delicious.
Shi Fujin said to Brother Ten: "I brought a jar of chive flowers to my sister-in-law. My brother brought it this time. I was afraid that Sister-in-law Ninth would be disgusted by the smell. I didn't give it to Sister-in-law when I sent beef jerky last time. Now Sister-in-law Ninth has brought it."
I stopped vomiting, just in time to try..."
However, the tenth elder brother knew what was wrong with his ninth elder brother. He didn't like these strong-smelling dishes, so he glanced at the ninth elder brother.
Brother Jiu was a little nervous after hearing this, and said to Shu Shu: "The smell is a bit choking, don't smoke it..."
Shu Shu looked at Brother Ninth and said with a smile: "I had it twice during my northern tour last year, and I really thought about it..."
It just so happens that Ninth Brother is very noisy these days, eating chive flowers, so it’s best to keep a distance.
Although I have asked the imperial doctor, it is not a problem these days, and the husband and wife can be close and intimate, but they cannot be immoral.
Don't touch anything if it's inappropriate.
Brother Jiu nodded and said: "Then it's delicious and appetizing. I've lost weight. If you want to eat anything, tell me and I'll buy it..."
Shu Shu felt that she had verified the "sleep weight loss method".
I didn't eat much, but I slept an hour longer than before I was pregnant.
And now my belly is bulging out, but I am not fat anywhere else on my body.
The tenth elder brother was standing by, behind the couple's back, and rolled his eyes.
The Ninth Brother in front of others is still the Ninth Brother before; the Ninth Brother in front of Ninth Sister-in-law has long since changed into a living person.
Shi Fujin also suppressed his laughter and murmured to Brother Ten: "Brother Ninth thinks that Sister-in-law Ninth is a child. How wonderful. Please coax me too..."
Brother Ten tapped Shi Fujin's nose.
Such a big treasure, even though she is married, he still dotes on her lively and cute person. Isn’t this considered coaxing?
Shi Fujin took the opportunity to please him and said, "How about you buy some delicious food for me too?"
Brother No. 10 looked at her round little face and wanted to remind her that he would not be able to hold her if she continued to eat, but he also knew that was inappropriate, so he nodded and said: "Okay..."
Brother Jiu couldn't stand what he was listening to. He snorted softly and said, "What's good?"
Shi Fujin and Shi Age both looked over.
Shu Shu was speechless and pinched Brother Jiu's waist from behind.
It's really uninteresting. The young couple is so sticky, why should he interrupt?
Like an evil mother-in-law!
This is also a strange phenomenon in the Aixinjueluo family.
The father-in-law is like the mother-in-law, and the eldest brother-in-law is like the mother-in-law.
It's really not easy for Prince Fujin to do it in front of him.
Brother Jiu was pinched so much that he changed his words, coughed slightly, and said: "It's not good to eat too much. It will be hard to climb the mountain at Hongluo Temple next year. I will have to kowtow then, so don't delay!"
Shi Fujin asked curiously: "Do you still climb mountains? I didn't climb this year, and I only kowtowed once."
This is talking about the kowtow when offering incense.
Brother Jiu nodded and said: "I will climb it next year. I heard that the Guanyin Temple is being rebuilt over there, and the 'Guanyin Road' is being built to worship hundreds of kinds of Guanyin. When the time comes, you can go there if you want a child. If you want to be pious, this one should
A lot of knocks..."
It's a mile and a half before and after, and it's not easy if it's all mountainous.
Guanyin Temple is a ruined and abandoned ancient temple hundreds of feet away from Hongluo Temple.
Now there are rumors that Guanyin Temple will be rebuilt next spring.
The couple had gossiped about this matter before, and both felt that the abbot was "stirring the trouble eastward" in order to preserve the endangered bamboo.
It's fitting for the occasion.
The fifth elder brother was really too cruel. If the abbot didn't think of a way, the bamboo forest would be cut off.
Nowadays, a monument has been erected in the remaining bamboo forest, with the words "Yu Bamboo Forest" written on it, and underneath it is also marked that Kangxi descended to appreciate the bamboo.
It is also a warning to the powerful members of the clan that enough is enough and no more bamboo ideas are allowed.
After Shi Fujin heard this, he immediately said to Brother Shi: "Master, stop looking for food, let's go hiking next year!"
Brother No. 10 nodded and said: "Okay, when you want to eat later, I will go shopping and change."
It's not that he dislikes Shifu Jin for being fat, but he also plans to have a legitimate son early, fearing that he won't be able to have a child.
By then, Brother Ninth Brother and his nephew will be able to grow up in the same class.
If there is too much age difference, studying and working as an errand are not the same thing.
After a while, lunch was served.
A large plate with a foot and a half of hand-operated lamb chops, a cabbage roll, a coir-coated cucumber, and a refreshing shredded radish, followed by two plates of staple food, one with Mongolian fruits and one with milk tofu.
In addition, there are two additional hot dishes, pot-wrapped pork and stir-fried shredded pork with sauerkraut.
The matching tableware also includes a Mongolian knife.
Except for Brother Jiu who had a plate of soy sauce in front of him, in front of everyone else, besides the dinner plate, there was also a five-inch plate with wild leek flowers in it.
The accompanying drink is authentic Mongolian pot tea.
Shi Fujin said happily: "It's almost the same as what I had when I was in Abahai, except there are more stir-fried vegetables and side dishes!"
The tenth prince glanced at Shu Shu gratefully.
If it weren't for the purpose of coaxing Shi Fujin, there wouldn't be such a menu at noon.
Brother Jiu wiped his hands and said to Shu Shu: "Don't use the knife. How to cut it? Tell me and I will help you cut it."
Shu Shu nodded with a smile and said: "The bigger one, as thick as a finger, has to be connected to the tendons, so you can bite it directly to enjoy..."
Brother Jiu agreed, picked a piece of mutton chop, and shaved the meat for Shu Shu.
Shi Fujin was at the side. He had already picked up the Mongolian knife and said to Brother Shi: "Sir, can I also cut the meat for you?"
The tenth prince did not refuse and accepted it calmly.
Brother Jiu looked at it and found it annoying.
He felt that his younger brother should stand up and learn from his elder brother, and act like the head of the family...

Qianqing Palace, Xinuang Pavilion.
The royal meal was also put on the table.
But besides Kangxi, there was also the prince who arrived in Beijing in the morning.
After the prince returned to the palace, he came to greet him, and Kangxi left a meal.
Today's imperial meal mainly consists of venison. This is not the annual tribute or fresh tribute from General Shengjing, but the capture of the prince during his eastward patrol.
The people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs were sent to the capital just to "pay your respects".
Kangxi praised: "I ate it once before. It tasted fresh and tender, and I was very happy. This is my son's filial piety, haha!"
Different from the silence and gloominess before leaving the capital, the prince showed a bit more flamboyance and said with a smile: "It's half-year-old venison. It's tender and easy to eat. It's delicious braised or grilled. I'm thinking of my mother."
It’s just right to eat…”
Kangxi still had a smile on his face, but it felt a bit harsh.
No need to waste your teeth...
In the eyes of the prince, he, Khan Amma, has loose teeth, so he should be careful when eating?
The prince didn't realize it and was still mentioning his hunting achievements, with a hint of pride: "My son shot two tigers, captured four tiger cubs, and placed them in the paddock. When they are older, they will be released..."
Kangxi's face showed a proud expression, but in his heart he thought about Tong Guowei's meeting with the prince.
It takes an hour to come out...
What did you say?
It will take an hour...
The prince is in his prime and has the power to fight a tiger.
Kangxi's heart palpitated inexplicably, and he remembered the news from Jiefang Palace.
Akedun took back the Laba porridge given by Brother Jiu and fed it to the dog!
That was not only his uncle, but also the current prince!
He handled it this way without any fear!
Kangxi smiled, looked at the prince and said: "The prince is a hero, Father Xiao, I am very pleased!"
The prince also smiled and hesitated for a moment.
He knew that the emperor's father admired and valued the Tong family, so he did not refuse Tong Guowei's overtures.
But now he has to think carefully about interceding for the Tong family and cannot intervene rashly...

After coming out of Qianqing Palace, the prince returned to Yuqing Palace.
This is the imperial palace. Each palace has its own owner. The ones belonging to the prince are Yuqing Palace and Jiefang Palace.
After the prince had simply freshened up, the chief eunuch of Yuqing Palace and the chief eunuch of Xiefang Palace also came to report the affairs of the two palaces these days.
The princess is in charge of Yuqing Palace, and everything is as usual.
There were several riots in Xiefang Palace. First, the second elder brother ordered that the eldest elder brother's black dog general be killed.
Then the eldest brother and the second brother fought, and the second brother fought back after being chased.
Li Gege sided with the eldest brother and reprimanded the second brother...
