Chapter 105 Asking(1/2)
Brother Jiu's face showed pride: "She is just worrying blindly, fearing that her son will not like what he eats on the road, so prepare it in advance... Just use this to season the pancakes..."
As for Shu Shu's original intention of making this soup, it was for a few girls who were worried that their big pot dishes would not be delicious, so there is no need to mention it.
Who knows that Brother Jiu was not happy when he found out, and at his strong request, the taste of the soup dumplings was finally prepared according to his preference.
As for the girls, they also shared two jars. It was Brother Jiu who showed mercy and allowed them to take advantage of it.
Kangxi snorted lightly and looked at Brother Jiu with increasing displeasure.
Being picky about what to wear and what to eat, I’m so squeamish.
When I was young, I was clean and timid, and I only thought it was cute when I was squeamish, but now I feel a little disgusted.
Brother Ten's eyes flashed slightly, and he said aside: "Sister-in-law Ninth takes good care of people. Last night, she was worried that the sons would not be able to rest well after they moved to another place, so one of them drank a bowl of hot milk... It really helps to sleep.
Sleep until five o'clock..."
"Well, well, my son also drank a big bowl!"
The thirteenth elder brother followed up and praised: "We had a good meal this morning. In addition to the food in the big dining room, Sister-in-law Ninth also cooked us noodles with poached eggs in them. It was quite delicious..."
Kangxi listened and remembered that the steward in the dining room mentioned this matter intentionally or unintentionally last night.
The Ninth Prince and his wife not only asked for hot water twice from the palace dining room, but also asked for hot water when it was dark.
It turned out to be for this reason.
It was indeed the right thing to leave the Thirteenth Brother to the care of Mr. Dong E. Mr. Dong E was very careful.
Thinking again of the egg flakes in the bowl just now and Brother Jiu's pride, Kangxi couldn't help but laugh.
This Dong E family is really a "husband sings and the wife follows".
When Lao Jiu said something, she followed suit and took care of the man's face.
No wonder the young couple are so affectionate and affectionate with each other now, it makes people's eyes sore to see them.
But what happened to Brother Nine?
I usually see him behave well, but now his eyes are moving around in a sly manner.
Sometimes he glanced at people, but he stopped talking.
"Raise your head? Sit up straight, how can you look at people? Why are you glancing around?"
Kangxi frowned and scolded softly.
"Yes, Khan Amma!"
Brother Jiu straightened his body and looked a little serious: "This is not because my son is old and he just wants to ask Khan Ama for a job..."
Kangxi remembered his attentive appearance just now and said angrily: "What's the errand?"
The ninth elder brother did not answer immediately, but glanced at the tenth elder brother and the thirteenth elder brother.
The tenth brother looked up at the sky, and the thirteenth brother's eyes were shining with expectation.
Brother Jiu coughed lightly: "I think, my brothers are in the retinue and each has his or her own duties. We, the young ones, can't be idle all the time... How about we, the young ones, learn from the general affairs? What kind of internal affairs?"
For government errands... to the dining room or other places, leave a day in advance, check the palace in front, and prepare for the reception... It is also the filial piety of the sons to do their best..." As he said, he looked at Shi again
Brother: "Really? The tenth brother?" Looking at the thirteenth brother: "The thirteenth brother also wants to fulfill his filial piety for Khan Amma, right?"
Brother 10 looked confused, but he still responded out of habit.
The thirteenth brother nodded excitedly and replied crisply: "I think so!"
Kangxi glared at Brother Jiu and revealed his inner thoughts: "Are you tired of riding in the carriage? Are you impatient to ride in the carriage?"
Brother Jiu was startled and did not dare to make random remarks. He hesitated and nodded obediently.
Kangxi looked up at the sky with hesitation.
These three are all younger. The ninth elder brother is the elder brother, but he is only a few months older than the tenth elder brother. Moreover, he is also a beauty, which makes people worry.
Brother Jiu hurriedly said: "Brother Khan, my son is taking Dong E's family with him..."
Kangxi laughed and scolded: "It's such a big summer day, you're doing it yourself, and I'm dragging you along with Fujin?"
Brother Jiu showed his pride: "Otherwise, she wouldn't be worried if Dong E was left here... She is thinking about her son's daily life..."
Kangxi was too lazy to listen to him show off his love as a couple again. He glanced at the Thirteenth Brother who was still watching eagerly, and the Tenth Brother who looked like a young man. He finally nodded: "Then give it a try...just do what you can."
, don’t be reckless and show off your strength..."
"Well, well, with the Dong E family watching, I won't ask my son to be brave!"
Brother Jiu's voice was full of lightness.
Kangxi was speechless.
He was talking about supervising the errands of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and inspecting the palace, not about rushing... Why did Dong E get involved...
*
In the carriage of Qi Fujin.
Shu Shu leaned on the pillow and held a piece of dried plum in her mouth.
She didn't have empty hands, she brought a box of snacks over and was now using dried plums to suppress the tightness in her chest.
Qi Fujin ate the dried meat very delicately. He couldn't eat it for a long time. He wished he could eat a pork shred for half a day.
When Shu Shu saw it, she remembered that Qi Fujin's appetite last night was just a milk roll the size of a child's fist. The appetite was very small.
To say that she has no appetite, her eyes are glued to the snack box, and the word "want to eat" is written on her face.
"Sister-in-law Seven...are you on a diet?"
Shu Shu sat up and looked at Qi Fujin: "You're fine, you're not fat. Why should you diet?"
Qi Fujin glanced at Shu Shu and stretched out his arm: "What look? Take a good look..."
The round wrists and the white and tender backs of the hands all have small pits on them.
Qi Fujin has a small frame and does not show it when wearing clothes. The exposed flesh is indeed a bit plump.
Shu Shu thought for a while and advised: "Even if I want to lose weight, it's not at this moment. I'm already tired when I'm out on the road. If I don't eat well, don't make me sick..."
Qi Fujin nodded, sighed, and looked at Shu Shu with envy: "Didn't I get aroused by the fifth sister-in-law and you yesterday? We three sisters-in-law are sitting together, and I am fatter than you...
I'm still a fist shorter than I am... I'm wearing a flag uniform and high-soled flag shoes, and it looks pretty much the same. When I put on my riding clothes, I'm just short and fat..."
Shu Shu glanced at the sugar water next to her and said, "If Sister-in-law Seven listens to me, she will give up sugar water first... Later I will ask someone to bring some barley tea. Sister-in-law Seven drinks that every day..."
Qi Fujin was addicted to sweets and was reluctant to give it up, but looking at his strong little fat arms, he still nodded.
With a bit of curiosity, she asked in a low voice: "I didn't have the nerve to ask Fifth Sister-in-law directly yesterday, didn't Concubine Yi give us a set of jewelry each? Mine is made of pomegranate flowers, filigree inlaid with rubies, Five
What kind of tricks does your sister-in-law have with you?"
Shu Shu was familiar with her and knew that she had no intention of comparing the value of the jewelry, but was simply curious.
In the words of later generations, Qi Fujin was a jewelry addict.
Among all the princes' Fu Jins, except for the Eighth Fu Jins, she wears the most jewelry on a daily basis and pays the most attention to these.
"My fifth sister-in-law's is the color of lotus, inlaid with pearls; mine is the color of magnolia, inlaid with pink tourmalines..."
Shu Shu said.
Qi Fujin satisfied his curiosity and immediately put it aside, pulling Shu Shu and chattering about Mongolian style jewelry.
Last time she saw how beautiful the Duobao Hetian jade necklace worn by Shu Shu was, and she even thought about customizing it based on the pattern.
The two little sisters-in-law chatted with each other.
I guess two or three quarters of an hour later, He Yuzhu came: "Fu Jin, I sent my servant to invite Fujin to come back..."
After hearing this, Shu Shu said goodbye to Qi Fujin and got off the carriage.
Brother Jiu was standing not far away, holding a food box in his hand.
Seeing Shu Shu coming over, Brother Jiu lifted up the food box and said, "Guess what it is?"
Shu Shu looked at the food box and it looked familiar. It was similar to the one Brother Ten sent someone to deliver at noon yesterday. He smiled and said, "What kind of food?"
Brother Ninth Brother was full of magic: "Nonsense, the food box is filled with food. You haven't guessed what it is?"
While talking, the two of them returned to their carriage.
Kangxi had already left with his tenth elder brother and thirteenth elder brother.
The small folding table on the floor was still there, and all the dishes on it were put away, leaving a pair of clean dishes.
Shu Shu really couldn't guess it for a moment. After all, the imperial cuisine provided many types of ingredients. Unlike their prince, the proportions provided were fixed and the permutations and combinations could be guessed.
Brother Jiu opened the food box and found a plate of sesame seed cakes and meat inside.
Isn’t this what you had for lunch yesterday?
Why is it so strange?
Shu Shu was puzzled.
