After Ning Guiren left, Yinzhen frowned and asked, "Has she always been like this recently?"
Shu Jin smiled and said, "It wasn't like this in the past, but now that the emperor is here, Mr. Ning must be extra obsessed."
Yinzhen's brows were a little unhappy, "You are already a woman who wants to be a mother, and you are still so ignorant."
Shu Jin pretended to be like a compassionate Virgin, "Ning Guiren is only nineteen years old, so it is inevitable that his daughter's temperament is a little more temperamental." By the way, Yongzheng was already over forty! He slept with another girl, and he still felt uncomfortable with this and that.
of.
Yinzhen sighed slowly, "The Nian family and the Wu family, I only pampered them a little, and they all became arrogant." As he said that, he shook his head, looking very unhappy.
Shu Jin cursed, for a young girl to serve such a bad old man like you, and to be arrogant instead of relying on his favor, wouldn't it mean that all her efforts have been wasted?
Shu Jin kept smiling: "When Ning Gui gives birth to a child and truly becomes a mother, she will definitely become more sensible."
After giving birth to a baby, if your figure is out of shape, you will definitely fall out of favor. Once you fall out of favor, you will definitely become a "sensible" concubine in Yongzheng's eyes!
There are many such concubines in the harem! But Yongzheng, who loved the new and disliked the old, had never been rare!
"I hope so." Yinzhen looked a little cold, "Nian has been more sensible than usual recently." - Although he may not be really sensible, at least he is much more docile on the surface.
Shu Jin secretly thought that Concubine Dun was taking advantage of the fact that Ning Guiren was pregnant and could not sleep with her, so she rushed to win favor.
After a few brief explanations, Yongzheng went back to Qingyan Hall in Jiuzhou to approve the instructions.
Shu Jin also had to continue busy with her palace affairs.
At this moment, Li Shouzhong, the eunuch in charge of the kitchen in the back, sneaked over to report, "My Lady, the palace maid's orbs around Guiren Ning have been digging into the kitchen recently..."
Shu Jin smoothly sealed the imperial concubine's seal with a click and then slowly raised his head.
Li Shouzhong immediately continued: "That orb always keeps an eye on Ning Guiren's food and drink, starting from the moment he puts the pot in the pot. Everything including dishes, food boxes, etc. must be inspected, as if we want to harm Ning Guiren!"
The eldest palace maid Hanshuang who was standing by her side had an angry look on her face when she heard this: "If you can't trust your empress, why did you come to Danning Palace?!"
Shu Jin raised his hand: "It doesn't matter, since it is Ning Guiren's food, she can be stared at if she wants. There is nothing shameful about our dining room."
Li Shouzhong looked aggrieved, "My dear, this orb is too presumptuous! She always disliked Ning Guiren for being too frugal in his diet, and even suspected that the slave was taking advantage of it! But she didn't think about the use of a nobleman.
How many degrees can there be? Doesn’t she know how many degrees there are?”
Shu Jin raised his eyebrows: This is just looking for trouble.
Hanshuang said in a low voice: "Your Majesty is the master now, so you can order the punishment of this lowly servant, so as to scare the monkeys."
Shu Jin sighed. This orb seemed to be Ning Guiren's personal confidant. If it was disposed of, the side palace would cause trouble again.
But he couldn't just indulge in it, "Hanshuang, go and call Ning Guiren."
"yes!"
After a while, Ning Guiren came to the main hall with a lazy look, "My Majesty summoned me urgently, what are your orders?"
Shu Jin glanced at Ning Guiren lightly. Now the two palace maids beside her, one named Yinzhu and the other Baozhu, both looked downcast and submissive at the moment.
Shu Jin picked up a folding book, unfolded it and read: "The noble man's daily allowance is six kilograms of pork, fifteen plates of mutton every month, eight chickens and ducks every month, one liter and two cans of japonica rice every day, two kilograms of flour, and two kilograms of sugar." Jin, sesame oil is three taels and five cents, tofu is one catty, fresh vegetables are six catties——"
Ning Guiren was confused at first. She didn't know why the imperial concubine suddenly asked about the cost of her ingredients. She couldn't help but interrupt: "What do you think the imperial concubine is talking about?"
Shu Jin put down the note lightly, "Don't you know what your daily expenses are?"
Ning Guiren heard the accusation in the concubine's words and couldn't help but feel aggrieved, "I don't understand what the concubine means."
Shu Jin glanced coldly at the palace maid named Baozhu. This palace maid's head was buried in her chest. She seemed to understand very well. Could it be... that this palace maid made her own decision and went to the dining room to complain to her master? Humph. , but he is a loyal servant!
Shu Jin said directly: "Your maid ran to the kitchen and yelled at Li Shouzhong, saying that your food was too frugal! Why, does this mean that the emperor gave you too little money?!"
When such a big hat fell, Ning Guiren couldn't help but look tense, and she hurriedly said: "I never meant this!"
The orb was so frightened that it flopped to the ground, "Damn it, slave! You talk too much, slave! I just saw that the noble man was not eating to his liking, and I just want the kitchen to pay more attention to it."
Shu Jin sneered: "Why are you so careful? Don't you know that it's hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice?! Your noble family will naturally be able to cook only what kind of food it costs!" - The portion contains only pork, mutton, chicken and duck. , is it possible that you still want to eat the bear's paw hump?! It's clear that you want me to support you out of my own pocket, which is a beautiful idea!
Ning Guiren broke out in cold sweat on her forehead, knowing that the concubine had caught her. She glanced at Baozhu, who was kneeling on the ground shivering, and knelt down with gritted teeth, "The weather has been hot recently, and I always suffer from morning sickness. Baozhu misunderstood that the dining room did not do its best, please forgive me, the noble concubine."
He is very protective of his own people.
Shu Jin actually just wanted to knock me off a few points so that he wouldn't have to pick and choose me in my territory.
"You are pregnant, so you don't need to do this gift at any time." Shu Jin glanced at another palace maid named Yinzhu, "Why don't you help your noble family up?"
Seeing this, Yin Zhu hurriedly went up to help Mr. Ning.
After Ning Guiren stood up, he begged: "The pearl was not intentional. Please remember that this is her first offender, so please be lenient." As he said this, Ning Guiren bent his knees again.
Shu Jin glanced at the trembling palace maid on the ground. She was as timid as a mouse now. Why was she so arrogant in the kitchen?
She frowned and said, "Take good care of your slaves from now on. If they do it again, Dan Ning Palace will definitely not tolerate such unscrupulous slaves!"
"Yes, yes!" Ning Guiren promised repeatedly.
Seeing that Wu's attitude was quite good today, Shu Jin softened a bit and said, "Whatever you want to eat in the future, you can directly ask the dining room. As long as it doesn't hinder the fetus, I will try my best to satisfy you." - Although she also I'm not willing to pay for it out of my own pocket, but if I can give Ning Guiren some extra food, I can stop Ning Guiren's mouth and tell her to stop thinking, it's still worth it.
Ning Guiren was stunned, why was the imperial concubine suddenly so kind?
"Thank you, Imperial Concubine!" Although Ning Guiren could not guess what the Imperial Concubine was thinking, he still thanked her quickly.
"Okay, it's hot, you can go back and rest." After showing kindness and power, Shu Jin saw off the guests.
Aunt Lan Ruo personally sent Ning Guiren out of the main hall.
The eldest palace lady Han Shuang was still a little unhappy, "Why don't you dispose of that orb? At the very least, you should expel it."
Shu Jin said lightly: "I see how protective Ning Guiren is for her. If she is kicked out, I'm afraid Ning Guiren will cry and make trouble." - When the trouble comes to the emperor, I'm afraid that she, a noble concubine, will also become the emperor's eyes.
A concubine who is "ignorant".
After saying that, she turned to Li Shouzhong and said, "From now on, if Ning Guiren orders a dish, if it is not in her order, she can use my dish. As long as it is not something that is taboo for pregnant women."
Li Shouzhong couldn't help but mutter: "I'm just worried that this will spoil Ning Guiren."
Shu Jin said: "It doesn't matter."
Anyway, when she gives birth, I have to get out of here immediately.
The number of manuscripts saved continues to decrease sharply...
I think I have the flu. It seems to be spreading very hard recently and many people have been infected.
My current state is: Baojuan, my voice!
I'm also a bit hot and cold and have a stuffy nose, but it's not too serious.
Feeling better this evening.
Hope to recover soon.
I hope you, the editor, will stick to it... come on!
