Since Shi Fujin said this, the sisters looked at each other and couldn't make up their minds for a moment.
I originally thought that the Tenth Prince's Mansion had less time to accept gifts and suffered a loss on weekdays, so everyone took this opportunity to make up for the gifts, but it turned out to be an exchange again?
Shi Fujin had been in the capital for two years and knew the rules of the capital. He immediately followed San Fujin, put his arm around her and said, "Sister-in-law, don't you think so?"
San Fujin smiled and patted Shi Fujin's hand and said: "Even if you don't give it, I will still ask. It's hard to buy love with money. Isn't this a coincidence? You can't make me part with love..."
As she said that, she did not show politeness to everyone, she just looked at Jiuge and said: "My aunt Jin Gui, I should have let my sister pick first, but I see that my sister is more interested in that bracelet, so I won't pick this earring with you."
You are too polite."
Jiuge smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, you're welcome."
Sanfujin put away the brocade box.
Jiu Gege, however, refused to continue choosing. He only looked at Si Fujin and Wu Fujin and said, "Let's go by age. Sisters-in-law will take a look first."
Seeing this, Si Fujin glanced at everyone and chose the golden amber necklace in the corner.
Everyone has seen this just now, there was little discussion, it is not someone’s favorite, it looks gentle and atmospheric.
Wu Fujin took the gem flower basket brooch next to it, which was inlaid with diamonds and rubies.
The gems on this are all broken gems, which look exquisite, but the price should be ordinary.
Qi Fujin smiled and said: "I can see that the sisters-in-law are asking people to pick small items to take, which actually gives an advantage to those behind us."
She unceremoniously took another brooch, a whole piece of sapphire the size of a pigeon egg, the color was very pure.
In the end, Shu Shu and Jiu Gege were left, and Shu Shu took the two-layered pearl necklace.
At this time, the pearls that came from the West were all sea pearls. The diameter of the pearls was not very large, nor was it perfectly round, but the color was very good.
It wasn't that she cared about the pearl necklace, but she thought of another way to make money.
It was Cao Yong who paid off the Taihu Cultured Pearl, which cost him millions of taels of silver.
It's just that I'm not in a hurry right now, it's not the time to make things happen.
You can write it down in your mind first.
Jiu Gege saw that his sisters-in-law already had them, so he accepted the seven-color gemstone bracelet.
The card table was placed in the west room. After everyone "appraised the treasures", it was still early before dinner, so they went over to play cards.
Three Fujin, Four Fujin, Seventh Fujin and Ten Fujin came to the table, Shushu, Jiu Gege and Wu Fujin sat by the kang and talked.
Shu Shu looked at Jiu Gege and said, "Sister knows that I own two silver houses and have some craftsmen. If there are any jewelry that I have painted, I can send them over for customization."
Prince Fu Jin, like Shu Shu and the others, had multiple jobs, including wife, mother, housekeeper, etc. He was a boss on one level at home and two levels in the palace, which was very tiring and laborious.
But Jiu Gege is a princess, so she doesn't need to be so careful, she just needs to entertain herself.
Jiu Gege nodded and said: "Of course I know. The things Sister Jiu gave me are all things that are not available outside..."
At this point, she thought about the purse she would prepare for the end of the year, and said: "I was just about to send someone over, and I also need to prepare the purse for the end of the year."
Shu Shu hurriedly said: "It doesn't have to be like this. My sister doesn't have a silver building in her name, and the government also has one..."
Jiu Gege insisted: "I want to establish rules from the beginning and make a clear analysis with the government so that we don't have to mix things up."
Shu Shu thought about the fate of Elundai, who was also seeking death.
This "Nine Dragons Seizing the Heir" is a big whirlpool, and the prince who gets mixed up in it is not the worst.
Even if you are an enemy and a rival, you still have to take care of the royal family's dignity, and being trapped to death is the most severe punishment.
When it comes to noble ministers and slaves, there are all kinds of ways to die.
The princess's mansion and the duke's mansion are clearly separated, which is not a bad thing.
Shu Shu nodded and said: "Then sister makes her own decision, but the shop next to it is okay, but the silver shop is commonly used. My sister has a rent-collecting shop in her name. If she has the help, she can open a silver shop and use it all year round.
Worth it."
Jiu Gege felt it was troublesome, and shook his head and said: "If you don't want to bother with that, you'd better come to Sister-in-law Jiu's shop."
Shu Shu didn't force it, just looked at Wu Fu and said, "How is Fifth Brother's Zhuangzi? Are everything ready?"
It turned out that after the fifth elder brother heard that Zhuangzi in Shushu was rich in produce, he went to see it once and fell in love with it immediately.
He borrowed Xing Hai from Shu Shu for two months. Before the Xing Hai couple went to Yunnan, they went to decorate his village in Tongzhou. Everything was done according to Baiwangshan Village, and he also bought a lot of piglets and chickens.
Counting now, only half a year has passed.
At this time, ordinary people's pigs were not slaughtered for one year, and they had to be raised for at least two years.
However, the imperial family is accustomed to eating pigs weighing less than fifty kilograms, which can be eaten within five months.
Wu Fujin nodded and said: "It's all ready. I sent two baskets of eggs a few days ago. One basket is only the size of a pigeon egg. It's the first one. The size of the other eggs is normal..."
The aunts and sisters were chatting about their daily routine, while Shi Fujin was already playing three rounds at the card table.
She was still very proud and said: "I have three idle cards, twenty-nine thousand and five cakes. I just want to throw away these five cakes!"
San Fujin smiled and said: "Okay, let's do it this way. Whatever my brothers and sisters throw away today, we will pick up."
The next lap was really good.
Shi Fujin had almost a handful of cannons and a box of silver beans at hand, and he lost everything.
San Fujin pointed at her and said with a smile: "Today I saw a boy who was loose money. This is not playing cards, this is picking up money!"
Shi Fujin smiled and said: "As long as I can make my sisters-in-law laugh, I will be happy to make money every day."
Qi Fujin pointed to the girls in the room and said: "Take it and share it. Remember to thank your God of Wealth grandma!"
In one sentence, everyone laughed.
It's almost time.
Everyone closed the card table and began to sit down.
As Shi Fujin said, it is a Bazhen banquet, and the ingredients are all related to the Bazhen.
The main dishes are bear paws and humps from Shan Bazhen, followed by sea cucumbers, abalone and fish maw from Hai Bazhen, plus quail, turtle doves and colorful sparrows from Qin Bazhen, and the rest are hericium and bamboo from Cao Bazhen.
Sun, morels and flower solitaires.
There are ten dishes in total and two soups.
San Fujin looked around and said, "It's really an uncommon dish, not many have tasted it."
Si Fujin nodded and said: "It is included in the Eight Treasures because the ingredients are rare and the taste is not bad at all."
Wufujin said: "Looking at the way it is made, it is more in line with the taste of the people in the capital than the swallow-wing mat."
Qifu Jinze said: "Let's see, next year the designated banquets will all be Bazhen seats again."
Shu Shu glanced at Xiong Zhao and looked away.
It's darkened and I don't want to eat it at all.
She looked at the Bamboo Sun Soup and said, "I drank this soup once before and it was fresh. No wonder it's called Cao Bazhen."
She thought of her tea mountain in Yunnan, and the Xing Hai couple who used to stare at the tea mountain, just in time to collect all kinds of dried mushrooms.
She still remembered the mushroom hot pot she had eaten in Yunnan in her previous life. There were more than a dozen kinds of mushrooms. Just thinking about the taste made her mouth water.
When Sanfujin picked up the kuaizi, everyone started eating quietly.
The bear's paws and humps in thick oily red sauce were a bit greasy for women's tastes, so Shifujin and Qifuxin ate a lot, while others only tasted it.
The others were similar to Shu Shu, but they had a few plates of grass and eight delicacies to eat, as well as some grilled turtle dove, fried quail and so on.
After everyone ate for half a quarter of an hour and tasted a circle of dishes, the dumplings were served.
The two fillings can be seen from the outside. The green one is leek and egg, and the yellow one is mutton and carrot.
Everyone drank Zhusun soup, and Kuaizi finally came with dumplings.
By the time everyone put down Kuai Zi, Qi Fujin was already urging them to go pick vegetables at the Ninth Prince's Mansion.
"The main reason is to see how our big babies are doing..."
The Seven Fortunes of Jin Dao.
She had heard that when Shu Shu and his wife went out, Fengsheng and Akdan were at the Tenth Prince's Mansion.
Not to mention whether it is "auspicious" or not, but there is an old folk saying that the elder brother takes care of the younger brother.
What if it works?
Last year, Shu Shu went to Hongluo Temple to ask for a son, and Wu Fujin went with him, and got good news.
Qi Fujin felt that when Shi Fujin made some noise, she would also look for an opportunity to take Fengsheng and Akdan to stay for a while!
She couldn't tell what other people's fortunes were, but she could tell that Shu Shu had good fortunes.
According to the rules in the Eight Banners, Shu Shu is now a "fully blessed person", with his parents and in-laws alive at the top and his children at the bottom.
No one else had any objections.
Everyone walked to the next door.
But the county lord was there, so instead of going to see Fengsheng and Akdan first, everyone went to Ning'an Hall to see the county lord and Ni Guzhu.
Ni Guzhu was not afraid of people. He was sitting on the kang holding a cloth tiger in his hand. When he saw everyone coming, he threw away the cloth tiger and crawled over quickly, looking at each one one by one without looking for Shu Shu.
She was neatly dressed, covering her small tire-like arms and legs, but her head and neck were outside, fleshy, and her eyes were flickering, looking at someone strange.
Qi Fujin picked him up and felt his arms heavy. He shook his head and said, "How many pounds does this weigh? It can weigh two of our three pounds..."
Shu Shu said: "I just weighed myself a few days ago and weighed twenty-two pounds..."
This weight is already over the limit.
For an eight- or nine-month-old baby girl, eight or nine pounds to fifteen or six pounds is normal. Niguzhu needs to lose weight.
Qi Fujin nodded and said: "That's not light. We weigh three pounds and twelve pounds each."
San Fujin was beside him, but he didn't close his mouth for a long time.
Her eldest brother, Gege, is one and a half months older than Niguzhu. He only weighs ten pounds now, which is not even half of Niguzhu’s weight.
Both Sifujin and Wufujin were just born. Looking at Niguzhu's round and strong appearance, I could only feel happy.
If my brother could develop like this, thank God.
Si Fujin said to Shu Shu: "I heard that my siblings have a booklet that lists the supplementary foods they give the children every month. Can you ask me to copy it later?"
Shu Shu nodded and said: "Okay, it's just that the fourth sister-in-law has to ask the imperial doctor before trying again. Every child is different. Even the three of us have tried."
Sifujin nodded.
Everyone went to the main courtyard again and went to the back room to see Fengsheng and Akdan.
The two brothers are much more normal in stature.
Even so, everyone is happy for Shu Shu.
After all, the children are premature babies born from multiple births, and now they look almost like single-birth babies, which is already very good...
