After returning from the palace, Shu Shu changed into homely clothes and went to Ning'an Hall.
In the main room, there are two pieces of Songjiang cloth placed on the Kang.
It is fine fine cloth, as soft as silk, but a piece of cloth is more expensive than silk.
It was time to make cotton-padded clothes for the children, so Mrs. Bo asked someone to dig out two pieces of Songjiang cloth.
Shu Shu sat down by the kang, and saw a pack of silk cotton next to her, and asked, "Are you going to make clothes at this time too?"
The uncle said: "Well, it doesn't need to be too thick, just make a cotton waistcoat."
When the kids aren't running around all over the floor, there's no need to make it too thick.
It’s time to wear quilted clothes before winter begins.
Shu Shu saw this and said: "Isn't there floor heating? When the weather gets cold, just light the fire in advance."
Mrs. Bo shook her head and said: "Spring is covered by autumn frost, so it is better to delay the flameout in spring. It is not good to light it up early in autumn. It is better to light it up in October."
Shu Shu said: "I saw my eighteenth brother today. It's been fourteen months and he still doesn't want to learn to talk."
But I couldn't see anything wrong.
The uncle said: "It's normal. If you don't speak after you are three years old, you have to think of something."
Shu Shu was relieved.
I didn't care about this at first, but after I had a child, I was always worried about the small probability of something bad happening to my child.
Ni Guzhu woke up and was hugged by her wet nurse.
Seeing Shu Shu's presence, she became disobedient and kicked around with her hands and feet.
Shu Shu saw this and took it.
"Ah...ah...ah..."
Ni Guzhu's mouth was not idle, and his saliva was drooling. The saliva towel tied around his neck became soaked in a short time.
Seeing that he is about six months old, he is about to start teething.
Shu Shu removed the niguzhu and changed her mouth towel.
Ni Guzhu grabbed Shu Shu's hand again and brought it to his mouth.
Mrs. Bo brought a pepper stick and took off Shu Shu's hand.
I was worried that my children would choke on teething sticks, so I gave some of them some Zanthoxylum bungee sticks last month.
Teething in children does not start at six months, but at four months they start drooling all day long.
Every time, Niguzhu starts first.
She reacted, and within ten days Fengsheng and Akdan would follow her.
Shu Shu spent a while here and then returned to the main courtyard, where she watched Fengsheng and Akdan go back to their room.
Here in Akdan, there is a half-person-high cotton pillow, wearing comfortable old clothes.
This is the method that Shu Shu and Jiu Age came up with. They can't let Akdan really become a little tail, so they have to change his dependence.
Xiaotang brought some seeds and started planting them in the greenhouse.
This year there are no potatoes or corn, and more vegetables can be grown inside.
Shu Shu said: "Mainly leaf vegetables, the yield is fast and it saves worry."
This is talking about leeks, Chinese cabbage, spinach, coriander and so on.
There will be no shortage of vegetables this winter. Vegetables will be grown in the greenhouse over at Xiaotangshan, so it doesn't matter in this house.
Xiaotang thought about it by himself, and Xiaosong followed him to watch the fun.
Walnut took a list, which was prepared by Shu Shu for Xiaochun.
A set of gold-headed noodles, a set of silver-headed noodles, twelve pieces of various materials, four pairs of purses, containing sixteen taels of gold and sixteen taels of silver.
Shu Shu looked at the list, feeling depressed.
Ni Guzhu was only half a year old, and she had already tasted the feeling of marrying a daughter.
Walnut stood nearby, not knowing how to comfort him.
Shu Shu waved her hands and said, "It's okay. Call your sister Xiaochun over. There is no banquet in the world that never ends."
Among all kinds of relationships, including father and daughter, husband and wife, mother and son, the relationship between husband and wife is not maintained by blood, which seems to be the most unreliable, but it is true that husband and wife can stay together until old age.
Shu Shu felt that autumn might really be here, and she felt a little sad.
After a while, Xiao Chun came in, her eyes swollen like rotten peaches.
Seeing that, if he hadn't restrained himself, he would have hugged Shushu and cried loudly.
Shu Shu patted the edge of the kang and said, "Sit closer and let's talk."
Xiao Chun nodded and sat next to the kang.
A twenty-year-old girl is actually at her best time.
Shu Shu is also a person who cares about appearance, and the girls he grew up with since childhood are not bad in appearance.
Xiaochun has a standard oval face and almond-shaped eyes, which look a bit sharp.
In the early days when I was in Dutong Mansion, I also liked to dress up.
But with Xiao Tao's example, the others also avoided suspicion and looked simple.
Shu Shu looked at Xiao Chun and said, "Don't try to hide from Qingxian. Aunt Qi is getting old and has low energy. When she comes back to Feng Sheng and the others, she needs to be watched properly."
Xiao Chun immediately shook his head and said: "I don't want to go to the eldest brother and the others, but I also want to serve Fujin."
Shu Shu nodded and said: "That's fine, you can take over from Grandma Xing when the time comes."
Aunt Xing is usually responsible for representing Shu Shu, the prince, Fujin, and doing favors and ceremonials.
Xiao Chun was self-aware and said hesitantly: "The rules outside are such that a slave is not as good as Sister Walnut."
Shu Shu said: "Just learn. There are still many years left. As long as you are my close friend, you can represent my dignity."
Gao Bin has great ambitions and wants to be an official close to the people. When the time comes, the walnuts will have to be released, and the job in the Prince's Mansion will not last long.
After hearing this, Xiaochun nodded, pointed to the West Crossing Courtyard and said: "At the moment, Zhaojia Gege is relatively worry-free, but in the future there will be others..."
She knew Shu Shu couldn't tolerate this, and she became a little worried.
Shu Shu said: "It's already very good now. If I don't think about the bad things, can I still suffer a loss?"
Xiao Chun looked at Shu Shu with reluctance.
Master and servant have been together for twelve years, which is as long as most of a lifetime for them in their teens and twenties.
Shu Shu said: "Other than not sleeping in the same yard, there is no difference. Stop shedding tears and go back and stay with your family for a month."
Xiao Chun nodded.
In the afternoon, Xiao Chun's brother came to pick him up in the car. Xiao Chun kowtowed to Shu Shu a few times and left the prince's mansion.
Xiaotang, Xiaosong, Walnut, Peanut and Ginkgo were all delivered to the door.
Although everyone knew that Xiao Chun was marrying close to the Xing family and would work as an errand in the family in the future, it was different from before.
The little sisters all shed tears.
This is different from sending Xiaoyu away. Xiaoyu came later and didn't spend much time with Xiaotang and the others.
At the side door of the Prince's Mansion, in addition to Xiaochun's brother, there was also Xing Jiang who was on leave.
It looked like he was sending Xiao Chun there.
He was talking to Xiaochun's brother.
He is in his twenties and has dignified features. He is not as dull as his elder brother Xing Hai, nor as smart as his younger brother Xing He. He looks calm and reliable.
"Brother-in-law is here too..."
Xiaosong was holding Xiaochun's arm and spoke quickly when he saw this.
She was the youngest and took the most care of Xiao Chun when she was a child, and the two of them were also close.
Xiaochun blushed and glanced at her.
When Xiaosong saw that she was ashamed, he closed his mouth and smiled sullenly.
After watching Xiao Chun's carriage go away and turn the corner of the street, everyone turned around.
Xiaotang looked at Bai Guo and said, "Sister, I need to be more careful around Fujin from now on."
Shu Shu had four bridesmaids, and two of them went out. Xiaosong was useless, and Xiaotang had always been decent, so it was natural for him to give this advice.
Bai Guo said hurriedly: "Don't worry, sister, I will do my job well."
Peanut is actually quite old, but he is quiet and doesn't talk much.
When they arrived at the main courtyard, Xiaotang took Xiaosong to the main room.
Shu Shu leaned forward and asked the two of them to come in and sit down. She looked at them and said, "Time flies so fast. I still think about how we were all together before. In the blink of an eye, it has been more than ten years."
Xiaotang said again: "Fu Jin, if I don't go out, the most important thing in my heart is Fujin. The one who treats me best in this life is Fujin."
Shu Shu looked at her and said: "Don't worry, we'll see in a few years. I have my father here, Fengsheng and the others, and there will also be grandchildren and great-grandchildren in the future. There will be no shortage of people to accompany me. I just hope
I’ll give you a few days as you please.”
Xiaotang smiled with red eyes and said: "By Fujin's side, I can do whatever I want."
Shu Shu looked at her and said: "Then prepare the recipes carefully, save money carefully, and think about the dishes in your free time. There are two restaurants outside. When you go back, you can inspect the kitchen and keep an eye on it for me. Don't always be in the house.
.”
The people working on the stove in the dining room were either women or fat-headed masters, but there were no young men.
It would be great if you can meet the right one, forget it if you can't.
Xiaotang nodded and said, "That slave must take a good look at it for Fujin."
Shu Shu looked at Xiaosong again and said, "What did Uncle Hei say? Did he let you go home?"
Xiaosong said in surprise: "I am Fujin's companion and guard. Isn't the place where Fujin is home?"
Shu Shu said: "Where is your senior brother? Didn't you say anything?"
Xiaosong thought for a while and said: "Senior brother said that we can't catch up with this wave anyway. Let's catch up with the next wave. Don't worry..."
As she said that, she said confusedly: "Are you saying that Sister Xiaochun is marrying Walnut? I didn't say I wanted to marry him, so why is it just this one and the next one?"
The corner of Shu Shu's mouth twitched, Chun Lin was quite good at thinking, but it was a pity that Xiao Song hadn't figured it out yet.
What this is talking about is that they get married and have children, and they can't keep up with the Fengsheng brothers to choose haha beads.
She asked: "You said it in front of Uncle Hei?"
Xiaosong shook his head and said: "No, I told Ama, and Ama took senior brother to practice."
Shu Shu felt relieved after hearing this.
This is Chunlin's fault. If he was really frivolous, Heishan would not be so simple and crude and only train his apprentice.
At Shenchu, Brother Jiu came back from the Yamen.
His face looked a little strange and his brows were furrowed.
Shu Shu saw this and said, "What happened to the Ministry of Internal Affairs?"
Brother Jiu shook his head and said: "Nothing happened to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It was the concubine and mother of Yongshou Palace who asked the imperial doctor again."
Shu Shu thought about the seats in Ningshou Palace in the morning. Concubine Tong was not there, so she just said she was sick.
Before, Shu Shu thought she was hiding because when she was cleaning up the Chengqian Palace, there were rumors about Concubine Tong becoming a noble concubine. In the end, she moved the palace with her concubine.
"Seriously ill? Is that going to be a big deal?"
Shu Shu said.
Concubine Tong is Kangxi's cousin. Even though she is silent in the palace and has no status at the moment, she is different from other concubines.
Brother Jiu nodded and said: "I know this, but I can't hide it in detail. I can't check the pulse of this concubine. I have to ask the princess first tomorrow to see how to deal with it...
"
A few days ago, Yongshou Palace invited the imperial doctor, who thought it was a minor illness.
But in the past five days, it has been reported three times, which makes people feel uneasy...
