Brother Jiu was obedient and did not say these words.
Shu Shu didn't pay attention, still looking at the picture album carefully.
What is in this picture album should be the Northern Style Baduanjin that Komatsu mentioned.
Most of them are in a squatting horse stance.
No matter how it is, it seems to be frustrating.
After seeing clearly the movements of each pose and the effects indicated in small letters next to it, Shu Shu looked serious.
The third pose is to regulate the spleen and stomach, the sixth pose is to strengthen the kidneys and waist, and the seventh pose is to increase strength. Isn’t that correct for someone’s symptoms?
It's really a mistake.
Compared with the healthy but slender Jiu Gege, the weak and weak "Xiao Jiu" in front of him needs this more.
Brother Jiu didn't pay attention to the explanation, but looked directly at the picture and muttered: "Isn't this too simple? You can strengthen your body by making gestures. Does it sound like a Taoist tricking people?"
Shu Shu smiled and said: "If you are fooling others, you won't be fooled for five hundred years, and nothing will happen to you. Just practice with me, so that I can't understand it alone. If I make a mistake again, I will turn around and carry Jiugege with me."
It was wrong to follow.”
Brother Ninth immediately said: "Give me the book. I will study it first and appoint you as a tutor!"
Getting started with Baduanjin is simple.
Brother Jiu read the description, tried it a few times, and completed an action.
He was very proud and told Shu Shu: "Don't worry, I will go through it first!"
After trying the eight postures and the movements became standard, his forehead was already a little wet.
Brother Jiu didn't realize it, threw the book on the kang, pulled Shu Shu and said: "I understand it, come on, follow me and learn from it!"
He seems to be a good teacher.
Shu Shu acted serious and followed the instructions honestly.
Occasionally, when something was not up to standard, I would be yelled at by Brother Nine.
"Look at the tip of your index finger, don't let your eyes wander, and concentrate!"
"Wrong, wrong, when you turn your head back to the straight position, you are exhaling, not inhaling!"
"My eyes are still wrong, I have to look at my toes when I'm shaking my head and wagging my tail!"
"In the end, I had to lift my anus and tighten my abdomen, and my belly was even protruding..."
Shu Shu is still smiling.
She felt that she could recite the Three-Character Sutra once, it didn't matter, it wasn't necessary, it wouldn't be a big deal.
Do not be angry.
It’s all about playing with the kids.
Isn’t this very happy?!
In order to correct Shu Shu's shortcomings, Brother Jiu was not idle and practiced the standard movements over and over again.
This Baduanjin may not seem like much, but after all, it is a way to strengthen your body.
For half an hour, Brother Jiu's mouth was not idle. His mouth was dry and his hands were gesticulating.
I was just in high spirits and didn't feel tired.
After Shu Shu did it the first time and corrected the mistakes the second time.
Brother Ninth realized it later, stretched out his arms pitifully and said: "I gave you a hand, my legs are numb even when I stand!"
His face changed very quickly, and he was no longer like the "strict teacher" he had just done.
Shu Shu didn't hold any grudges and helped him sit by the kang.
The couple simply freshened up and got on the kang.
The sound of banging at midnight could be heard in the distance.
Brother Ninth Brother still stretched his arms and legs, Lai Lai said: "My legs are not numb anymore, but they are sore. Did you stretch them?"
Shu Shu doesn’t think so.
Because Brother Jiu couldn't bear the pain, he would have screamed if he really wanted to stretch his arms.
It's because I don't move much on weekdays.
This is just for the present. If the discomfort spreads, I may even walk with a limp tomorrow.
Shu Shu rolled up the sleeves of her shirt and said, "I'll massage you!"
Although she didn't know how to massage the whole body, she had learned how to massage the shoulders and neck with Xiaosong before. She also massaged the shoulders and neck with both hands, in order to massage Amo, Eni, and Ama. However, she often enjoyed full-body massage and knew the approximate locations.
Brother Jiu hesitated.
Shu Shu had already taken action, without saying hello, directly grabbing Brother Jiu's arms and legs and turning him over.
Brother Jiu changed from lying on his back to lying on the kang, his face still a little confused.
Shu Shu had turned over and was sitting astride his waist.
Brother Jiu was not annoyed and said with a smile: "Normally you don't do anything when I beg you to sit down, but now you can't help but insist on being tough. Have you thought about it?"
Shu Shu thought about Xiao Song's actions, and instead of teasing him, she pressed down on Brother Jiu's neck.
Because she knew Brother Jiu was afraid of pain, she controlled her strength.
Brother Jiu was not used to it at first, but after a few times, he realized the benefits and enjoyed it a few times: "Stronger, stronger..."
Shu Shu felt a headache, so she took the pillow next to her, stuffed it under Brother Jiu's head and said, "Don't talk, you're disturbing me so I can't remember the location of the acupuncture points!"
"snort!"
Brother Jiu reluctantly stopped and lay on the pillow.
Shu Shu just wanted him to be quiet, so why did he care about which acupuncture points he was using?
Follow Komatsu's usual massage sequence, going down along the cervical spine.
As a result, from his shoulders to his waist, in just a quarter of an hour, Brother Jiu's breathing became heavy.
He was obviously tired and snored a little.
Shu Shu moved gently and took a closer look.
Fell asleep.
Instead of burying his face in the pillow, he fell asleep with his face turned sideways, like a child.
Shu Shu tiptoed off the kang and turned off the light.
Listening to Brother Jiu's snoring, Shu Shu also yawned.
How will Amo sue?
When to sue?
Complaints are just the beginning, what will happen next?
Shu Shu thought randomly in her mind and fell into a drowsy sleep.
The next day, Shu Shu woke up at the beginning of the morning.
This is the normal routine for the two of them.
Today is the first day of February.
Today and tomorrow, the two institutes are very busy.
The ingredients have been prepared and waiting to start work today.
Knowing that there was also a supply of beef in the palace, Shu Shu sent Zhou Song to inform the dining room in advance and reserve fifty kilograms of beef.
This is used to make beef sauce.
Fifty pounds of raw beef, cut into cubes and deep-fried before making sauce.
One is the original beef sauce without chili pepper, and the other is the spicy beef sauce with chili pepper.
The main reason is that the weather in the south is hot and humid, so food easily spoils.
Unlike during the Northern Patrol, it got colder and colder as we walked, so the food we prepared could be kept on the road for many days.
Meat, in particular, is more susceptible to spoilage.
Shu Shu only prepared four kinds of meat, two kinds of beef sauce, pork floss, and crispy fish soaked in oil.
As for the sparrows I caught before, they were also made into sparrows.
Since there are not many of them, there is also little meat on the birds.
Shu Shu didn't plan to take this with him on the road, so he blew it up and sent a copy to each of Ningshou Palace, Yikun Palace, Qianqing Palace, Tousuo, Third Palace, and Fifth Palace.
Each portion comes with a fried quail, a fried turtle dove, and a few fried sparrows.
It’s cold in winter and the food dries slowly.
What this bird eats is not so much firewood, but more of burnt aroma.
Brother Jiu obediently went to the Ministry of Punishment to read the files.
Shu Shu was talking to Xiaotang about milk, and there were several large buckets of milk in the kitchen.
Half of it was collected from the imperial kitchen a few days ago and placed in the front kitchen to let it ferment naturally.
Nowadays it’s all yogurt.
If you don’t have much time, you will definitely not be able to make traditional air-dried milk tofu.
Shu Shu told Xiaotang how to make cooked milk tofu.
It's not like making tofu, squeezing out the water and then air-drying it.
Instead, it is fried first, then frozen to shape and sliced, and finally placed on the stove to bake slowly over low heat.
Although it is tedious, I can still make several boxes of milk tofu with moderate hardness and softness.
Shu Shu asked Xiaotang to make butter from the remaining buckets of milk.
Butter is shelf-stable and can be used to make many meals when fresh milk and dairy products are in short supply on the road.
These are the bulk of them.
The rest are side dishes.
Shu Shu didn’t make it that complicated, it was just the same spicy cabbage and sour radish.
Royal food is provided along the way, and there is no shortage of basic meats and vegetables.
Just a few seasonings would be enough, she's not a cook.
This pickled radish is mainly used to deal with seasickness.
It is not suitable to eat when you are seasick because you will vomit.
Only sour food is suitable to suppress vomiting.
In addition to sour radish, Shu Shu also asked the kitchen to fry a jar of red fruits, adding less sugar than usual to retain the sour taste of hawthorn.
After Shu Shu finished giving these instructions, she called Xiao Song in.
I started thinking about it last night.
She also needs to be pressed well.
Xiaosong pressed halfway, and two visitors came.
It's Jiu Ge Ge.
Shu Shu saw the joy between her eyebrows and smiled too.
The sister-in-law and sister-in-law share the same joy of going out.
"I am here today on an errand. I followed Grandma Huang's instructions to deliver something to Sister-in-law Ninth..."
Jiu Ge pulled Shu Shu's hand. Her sister-in-law had seen it, and immediately took a box from the hands of the woman who was following her, and handed it to Shu Shu's arms.
"This is the ninth sister-in-law's share. There are three shares in total. I and the fifth sister-in-law also have it. The fifth sister-in-law took away the share yesterday..."
Although the Queen Mother had ordered that she would not have to pay her respects yesterday, Wu Fujin still went to the palace.
I was summoned here by the fifth elder brother, and I was afraid that the Queen Mother might not be fully prepared before going out.
Wu Fujin thought he would meet Shu Shu, but he didn't.
She didn't want to wander around in the palace. After coming out of Ningshou Palace, she asked for greetings in Yikun Palace and went out.
Shu Shu held the heavy box and said guiltily: "I didn't even know that the fifth sister-in-law came into the palace yesterday, otherwise I should have gone to see it."
Jiu Gege said with a smile: "Fifth sister-in-law will not care about this. We can talk together later."
Shu Shu nodded and asked him to sit by the Nine-Gate Kang. He also ordered Xiao Chun to serve tea, then put down the box and opened it.
There is a layer of gold ingots inside, neatly arranged.
It doesn't look like much, there are ten pieces in total, but it's quite heavy, it comes in pieces of five or two.
Fifty taels of gold, equivalent to five hundred taels of silver.
A lot.
Shu Shu closed the box and said with a smile: "I was just thinking about how much money to bring to Jiangnan, and I got a reward from the emperor's grandmother. We should be filial to the emperor's grandmother..."
Jiugege was not very good at economics and said disapprovingly: "Let's keep the pocket money given by the Imperial Grandmother. The Imperial Grandmother will be happy. Then we will buy delicious food for the Imperial Grandmother."
Shu Shu smiled and said, "Do you have any news from Sister-in-law Three? Are you going to follow me or not?"
Because Concubine Hui was in charge of the affairs of the female retinue.
Concubine Hui is often in Ningshou Palace these days, and the news in Ningshou Palace is better.
Jiu Gege glanced at Shu Shu but did not answer immediately.
Shu Shu lowered her head and looked at herself. There was nothing unusual about her plain cotton homely clothes.
Jiu Gege looked strange and said: "It seems that the third sister-in-law sent the two little brothers to her parents' house..."
