Chapter 885: Happy Fatty (Thanks to Alliance Leader Asai Aoi
The Ninth Prince's Mansion, back room.
The sound of drums could be heard in the distance outside, it was already the second watch.
When it was time to settle in, if it was normal, Brother Jiu would have gone back to the main house in front of him.
Today he refused to leave.
"It's late spring, it's cold in the room, and it doesn't feel warm even under the quilt..."
Brother Jiu looked at Shu Shu, his shoulders drooped, and said pitifully.
The braided hair on the top of Shu Shu's head had a hairpin with the word "Fu" inserted into it, and the faint scent of aloes still lingered around her body. Looking at the dark circles under Brother Ninth's eyes, she was not willing to chase him away, and said: "Then I will deal with it for one night..."
"Well, well!" Lan
Brother Jiu suppressed himself from laughing out loud, and immediately arrogantly ordered Walnut at the door: "Hurry up and get my bedding from the front!"
Walnut glanced at Shushu, and when he saw her nodding, he left numbly.
Brother Jiu was not happy and said: "What's going on with this girl? She has no eyesight at all. If she keeps doing this, I'll be a matchmaker for Gao Bin and look at other people!"
Shu Shu pinched her and said, "What did you say? It was appointed by A Mou. They are all good girls. We will prepare the dowry later."
Brother Jiu whispered in a low voice: "The same goes for the County Lord. Who do you think I am? I'm not a beast. Don't you know that I feel sorry for you?"
Shu Shu held his hand and looked at the wounds on her index finger, three or four deep and shallow, and said, "Does it hurt?"
When Brother Jiu said that he was good at knife skills, she should have thought about it. Brother Jiu was not as strong as someone who could hold a carving knife steadily.
At that time, Shu Shu only felt sorry for Chen Xiangzizi, and was afraid that Brother Jiu's knife skills were so poor that he had forgotten about hurting his hand with the carving knife.
Shu Shu felt that she had lost interest in Brother Jiu.
Some are due to the effect of "one pregnancy makes you stupid for three years", and some are just that your energy is restricted by three children.
Brother Jiu nodded and said, "Well, it does hurt, but I thought it was done for you, so it won't hurt."
Shu Shu felt soft in her heart after hearing this.
The couple had been inseparable in the past, and they ate and slept by themselves in the past ten days, and because they couldn't take a bath before, they suppressed their irritability.
The time a couple spends together every day is during lunch and dinner, which adds up to only one hour.
Shu Shu felt a little guilty.
After a while, Walnut and He Yuzhu came over with Brother Jiu's bedding and spread the kang next to Shu Shu's bedding.
Xiaochun brought Xiaosong and brought them foot-washing water, and helped them wash their feet.
When everyone retreated and the couple lay down, Brother Jiu reached out his hand, touched Shushu's bed, and took her hand, feeling at ease.
"It's better to have a hot kang. The fire in front of the kang has been out for several days and it's already cold..." Brother Jiu sighed comfortably and said.
Shu Shu said: "Isn't there a heating pavilion built next to the study? There is a stove outside. You can just add charcoal. Why don't you move it there tomorrow..."
Brother Jiu hummed softly: "You're not here. What's the use of warming the pavilion without warming the pavilion?" Lan
Shu Shu comforted: "It's almost half a month already, isn't it?"
Brother Jiu sighed: "There's still one and a half months left..."
Shu Shu also felt that it took a long time.
She hesitated for a moment and said, "How about I take turns sleeping in the front and back yard like this?"
Brother Jiu came over and said with dissatisfaction: "You are so cruel, can't you just sleep next to each other like this? There are ordinary people outside who only have one bedroom, and they don't say that the couple has to be separated..."
Now that the weather is getting warmer, Shu Shu wipes her body and hair every other day, and her mood is much better. She doesn't chase Jiu Age as much as before.
She said: "Then I can stay if I want. I just want to say that I can't be upset when Ah Mou doesn't give me good looks. Ah Mou just feels sorry for me and is worried that we are young and don't know the importance of it."
Brother Jiu nodded hurriedly and said: "Of course, I am from Hutu. I still can't tell the difference between a good person and a good person..."
With such an elder here, it will save you a lot of worry.
Brother Jiu thought for a while, then came up with an idea and said, "How about you wait until you are out of confinement and ask the county master to come and live in the back building?"
Shu Shu couldn't help but pinched him and said: "No! Ah Mou is getting older after all. It's hard to take care of the children, especially during the childhood period. Auntie can just come over during the day. It's too hard to be there day and night.
Followed by fatigue.”
She had originally wanted to give birth to a little baby and keep Madam Uncle in the care of the Prince's Mansion, so that Madam Uncle would have grandchildren to look after her in her later years, so that she would not be lonely in her later years.
However, he did not think of leaving the responsibility of taking care of the three children to Mrs. Bo, leaving the elders to work hard.
That would be putting the cart before the horse.
Brother Jiu said: "That's right. I forgot that the county owner is also in his fifties..."
Shu Shu said: "I was initiated into enlightenment by Amou when I was a child. When Da Gege was three or four years old, I felt relieved and sent to Amou's courtyard to be initiated into enlightenment."
The ninth elder brother nodded and said: "Okay, when the time comes, the two elder brothers will be handed over to Zhang Tingzhan for Zhang Tingzhan to learn."
It saves him a Hanlin bachelor's degree and always worrying about leaving homework for himself.
Although they are all well-intentioned, they also feel tiring, and the freedom of vacation... no... "grounding" is gone...
Shu Shu listened with a smile and did not answer.
After all, she is not an expert on Qing history, and she really doesn’t know how Zhang Tingzhan’s career will develop.
However, Zhang Ying is ready to retire, so Zhang Tingzhan's time in the Prince's Mansion should be counted.
He is not young anymore and has had enough experience. It is time for promotion.
However, the Zhang family must have some know-how in studying, otherwise they would not be able to continue to be ranked among the top scholars from now on.
You might as well go find a teacher then...

Backyard, Zhang residence.
Zhang Tingzhan and his wife also lay down and were talking about things at home.
Although they moved out of the Imperial City, the couple still had to go to the Imperial City every other day to settle down.
"When the second brother's palace examination is over, my sister-in-law will also have a big gift. Can you bring me to live with you for a while?"
Mrs. Gu was filled with expectations.
The two had no children, so Zhang Tingzhan had to go out every day, one day in the Hanlin Academy and the other in the Prince's Mansion.
As a result, during the day, when there was only one person at home, Gu was idle and bored.
Zhang Tingzhan has always loved his younger sister, but now he shook his head and said: "It's inconvenient, let's wait!"
Gu hesitated, pointed to the east, and said: "Master, are you worried about the next door? Brother Fusong seems to be a polite child, is that okay?"
Zhang Tingzhan coughed and said: "It's none of his business, it's just that it's inconvenient for us to take our fourth sister..."
Mrs. Gu looked at her husband and didn't understand what the inconvenience was.
Is it because you are a guest?
But the current guest house is different from the ordinary guest house.
It is more worry-free than renting a house outside.
Zhang Tingzhan pointed to the bamboo in the corner of the room and said: "The good omens are there, I have to try. If you want to pick up the fourth sister, let's talk about it in the second half of the year..."
Mrs. Gu understood and was so ashamed that she couldn't speak...Lan

There are only two major events in March, one is the Longevity Festival and the other is the imperial examination.
What is closely related to each prince's mansion is the longevity ceremony.
Although the fourth elder brother had sent last year's gift list before, he still felt uneasy when he arrived. He came back from the Ministry of Household Affairs that day and did not go back to his house immediately, so he came over in person.
Brother Jiu has been sleeping peacefully since he moved to the back building. He also eats with Shushu and takes a lot of supplements. After a few days, his face is red and he looks full of energy.
When the fourth elder brother saw it, he looked at it several times and said, "Did the imperial doctor change the prescription? The supplement is good..."
Brother Jiu thought of dendrobium water.
The elder brother in the palace was always hungry when he was a child.
After all, the emphasis at that time was on suppressing fire. When you had a fever or cold, you had to clear your stomach and intestines to suppress fire, so everyone had some gastrointestinal problems.
We don’t have much dendrobium at home, so the couple eats it. There isn’t much left, and it was given by the eldest brother, so it’s not easy to give it away.
He said: "It's a supplement that my eldest brother gave to my younger brother Fujin before. I took it with him. It's exactly the right medicine. It's Dendrobium Huoshan. It really nourishes the stomach. It's effective after three or five times. Now I occasionally have a hard time eating it."
It can be overcome. Fourth brother, please ask people to inquire and see if they can exchange for some..."
The fourth elder brother looked at the ninth elder brother and couldn't help but frown and said with disapproval: "That is your Fujin's body supplement, and it is a rare thing that is not common in the market. How can you continue to eat it? You are so ignorant!"
"
The mother is weak, let alone giving birth to three children at once.
The birthday gifts sent by Sibeile Mansion also included such good things as swiftlets and purple sea cucumbers.
This is based on what Dafujin learned from the past. Everyone was afraid, so most of the people they picked were soothing and nourishing things.
She is just afraid that she will hurt her body, just like Dafujin. Even if she is fine after giving birth, her life span will be affected.
Brother Jiu hurriedly asked: "Is my brother the one who is ignorant? I also said I won't eat it, but I, Fujin, always ask people to make two bowls of them. They are cold in nature and she can't use them more, so my brother just eats them.
, not only dendrobium water, but also bird's nest and sea cucumber, she also asked her younger brother to eat it, saying it was to replenish qi or something..."
It seems like he loves to eat...
If it were anyone else, he wouldn't eat it.
Seeing how the ninth elder brother acted like a good boy after getting an advantage, the fourth elder brother felt disgusted and said: "My younger brothers and sisters are virtuous and always put you first, but you also have to know the importance."
Brother Jiu nodded and said: "Don't worry, in my brother's heart, Fujin is the first, and the three little brats are behind..." Lan
Fourth Brother couldn't help it anymore and frowned: "Don't say anything inappropriate! How can anyone call their own flesh and blood like that?"
Brother Jiu quickly changed his name and said: "Three little ones, three little ones..."
He was angry with Da Gege and his second brother.
Da Gege wouldn't let him hug him, and the second elder brother only let Shu Shu hug him, and then even Aunt Qi could hug him, but no one else could.
Even when the nanny is breastfeeding, she has to put a comfortable clothes on her arms, so that the second elder brother is willing to nurse honestly.
Among the three children, only the eldest brother is not picky and behaves well.
Brother Jiu was also a little angry.
Did she give birth to three children, or only one?
If something is unfilial, you won't get close to it when it's in your belly, and it doesn't happen now either.
He complained twice in his mind before speaking out.
Fourth elder brother shook his head, there was nothing he could do to him.
He remembered the business and said: "Khan Ama is still in Changchun Garden. Although the court banquet is suspended on the Wanshou Festival, birthday celebrations still need to be celebrated. You will make a note on the 15th and mention that you will go to the imperial palace to pay homage to his birthday that day.
Things……"
Brother Jiu was surprised and said: "Does this still require a discount? Can't we just go there?"
Brother Si glanced at him and said: "Aren't you 'banning'? You didn't lift the ban and ran directly to Changchun Garden. Was it to celebrate his birthday or to anger someone?" Lan
Brother Ninth laughed sarcastically and said, "Thank you, Fourth Brother, for reminding me that my younger brother should write notes. Master Zhang just taught me this a while ago..."
Seeing that he was obedient, Fourth Brother was quite satisfied. He took the gift list and looked at it a few more times, pointed at the leader, Chen Xiang Ruyi, and said, "Where did you get this? Isn't it too eye-catching?"
Agarwood is inherently valuable, and Ruyi is a big item...
