Chapter 1166
After lunch, Shi Fujin went home first.

Qi Fujin and Shu Shu took a nap here.

It is estimated that when Shenchu ​​arrived, the two sisters-in-law got up to wash up.

Qifujin said: "It's the end of the year, I can't be free, there are many weddings and funerals."

Not only is the clan a lot of banquets here, but the Nala family, the Shang family, and the Dai Jia family all have flourishing children.

"The posts are lined up until the New Year's Eve..."

Qi Fujin sat in front of the vanity mirror, let the girl wipe his face, and said: "This Fujin's job is really no different from that of a big housekeeper."

Every family has its own affairs, so Shu Shu couldn't say anything, so she just said, "Did Auntie choose a good man for your brother?"

Qifujin has a brother and a younger brother, and the younger brother is not married yet.

Qi Fujin's face was full of indescribable words.

"Is it an inappropriate choice?"

Shushu said.

Like Dong E's family, Nala's family is a dignified and noble family, and almost all of them have married offspring of Prince Li Lie for almost generations, and the inner houses are all clan daughters.

Qifujin exhaled, and said: "Maybe our two families will get closer again!"

Shu Shu heard this, frowned, and thought of someone: "Fu Song's younger sister? Didn't you say you've found someone before?"

She didn't ask later either.

Qi Fujin said: "It seems that later it was found out that the son of that family has eye disease, he can't wear armor, and he can't take the examination of writing style. He is just a waste, and the marriage will be over."

The other party is also a noble son, a middle-class family, and looks like a child with a yellow belt, just because he doesn't want to marry too lowly.

As a result, Fu Song was the master of ceremonies of the prince's mansion and the son-in-law of a university scholar. The other party was a little scared, so he asked Youzi to stop the marriage.

"Is this age inappropriate? How many years away..."

Shushu said.

We lived in the front and back yards, and played together when we were young.

Nala Erye and Shu Shu Tonggeng, the birthday is eighteen this year.

Cousin Shu Shu is fourteen this year, and she will be born next year.

Qi Fujin said: "Hey, I don't know what they think, it doesn't look right to me..."

Shu Shu was curious. In his impression, Mrs. Nala was like her own, a grand daughter with a plan in her heart.

Sister Fusong is not a good daughter-in-law. She has a capable half-brother, but she is not close to her family.

Although she is the niece of the Jueluo clan, Ama is a gambler, and Enie is a small family with a small dowry.

This marriage is a bit inexplicable.

The sister-in-law and sister-in-law chatted a few gossips, and it was sorted out almost.

There was movement outside, Brother Jiu came back.

Knowing that Qifujin was here, he came in to say hello, and then went to the front yard to wash up.

Shu Shu remembered one thing, and said: "Sister-in-law Seven told Brother Seven to come over? Did Brother Seven come to pick you up, or should we just go there?"

Qi Fujin shook his head and said, "Master Qi won't go, because of the posts outside, Master Qi rarely goes."

If it was another family, Qi Fujin would directly withdraw the post, and she would not go there either; but the post belonged to Tong's family, and San Fujin even sent someone to visit and gave the gift list for reference. , I didn't return the post, and planned to go there by myself.

Shu Shu was not surprised.

Since the seventh elder brother is in charge of the eyes and ears inside and outside the palace, he must be cautious of independence.

However, due to the status of the Baylor Mansion, she had to show up for some social interactions, and the husband and wife were one, and Qi Fujin came forward, which can be regarded as the golden mean.

Guessing that it was almost time, Shu Shu and Qi Fujin came out.

Unexpectedly, not only Brother Nine was waiting, but Brother Seven also came.

Qi Fujin was very surprised, and without thinking about it, joy appeared on his face.

Seeing that Brother Qi was going to ride a horse, Qi Fujin hurriedly grabbed his arm, and said softly: "I have something to tell my master, let's take the car."

Seventh elder brother pulled his arm, but was hugged even tighter by Qi Fujin, and he didn't pull it out of Qi Fujin's arms, looking at Shu Shu and Jiu elder brother.

Shu Shu had already looked away, tightened her cloak, and looked at the door of the Tenth Prince's Mansion.

The carriage is also prepared, people should come out soon.

She looked at the gate of Babeizi Mansion again. There was no parking there, but a horse.

Shu Shu urged Brother Jiu, saying: "Master, let's get in the car too..."

Brother Jiu first helped Shu Shu into the carriage, and then got into the carriage by himself.

Seeing that the weather was getting colder, it was also cold in the carriage, but the charcoal hadn't been burned yet.

Spring covers autumn and freezes.

You must come according to the season, otherwise, you will catch a cold more easily.

Therefore, the stove in the carriage, or the hand stove, foot stove, smoker cage, etc., should not be used until the first day of October.

Brother Jiu directly held Shu Shu's hand in his palm, and said with distress: "After all, it's different. You were the one who covered my hands last year."

At that time, Shu Shu's hands were hot, but Brother Jiu's hands were cold.

Shu Shu said: "Ejiao and sea cucumbers are starting to be eaten, and it will be fine if you keep them for a winter."

Brother Nine said: "The medicine prescribed by the imperial doctor must be taken regularly, if it is bitter, it will be bitter."

Shu Shu said: "I asked the dining room to make a lot of sugar and put it aside. I am not afraid of hardship."

There are ginger candies, fruit-flavored hard candies, and tea candies made from various tea leaves.

Brother Jiu said: "It's a pity, among the shops vacated by the Ministry of Internal Affairs in May, there is a sugar seller. The business is doing well."

Shu Shu smiled and said: "It's not short of that money, the shop in the imperial city is better, it's too much trouble."

Brother Nine said: "Let's avoid suspicion, we don't want to take advantage of this, but you have a big face, what does Long Kedo think? I didn't find out until I went to the yamen in the morning. He sent someone to the accounting department to rent Jingshan West Street. several shops."

Naturally, it is impossible to rent, because the shops in the imperial city are now subject to bidding for a limited number of years.

Many shops were just rented out in May, and the next one will be three or five years later.

Subletting is allowed, but the rent can only be raised but not lowered.

"It's shabby, isn't it shabby, come to take advantage of this? You thought you could rent a prosperous shop for a few dozen taels of silver, and the rent difference is a few hundred taels when you change hands?"

Brother Jiu muttered.

Shu Shu also felt curious, and said: "When Tong Guowei's family was expelled last year, they didn't take over the property either. For the two lifetimes, they should not be short of money."

Brother Nine said: "The Tong family is not separated, Long Kedo should be looking for pocket money by himself!"

Shu Shu said: "It should be, bringing more than 100 people down, even if it's a monthly fee, it will cost several hundred taels a month."

Living in the capital is not easy

Eating, drinking and Lazard all cost real money.

In some places, the well water is bitter, and you have to spend money to buy sweet water for drinking water.

The carriage walked for a quarter of an hour and a half, entered Di'anmen, followed east along the imperial city, and arrived at Tong's house in another quarter of an hour.

This was built and repaired by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and it looks like a brand new five-entry mansion from the outside.

The fourth elder brother and eighth elder brother who were riding in front had already dismounted.

It was not Long Kedo who greeted the guests at the door, but Fa Hai brought a teenager in his teens.

Fa Hai's face was a bit blunt.

The fourth elder brother and the eighth elder brother looked at each other, but did not move.

Fa Hai brought the young man forward, respectfully said: "Fourth Master, Eighth Master..."

The fourth elder brother said: "Where is Master Long?"

Fahai said: "The third master has arrived, and the third brother is talking with the third master, so I sent the slaves to bring my nephew to welcome you..."

The fourth elder brother has a bad face, that's not the reason why Longkodotuo can't welcome him.

The carriage behind also came close.

Everyone got out of the carriage one after another.

Seeing that the situation at the door was wrong, everyone thought about it.

Qi Fujin stood on tiptoe, and muttered to Qi Elder Brother: "I really don't see the outside world, this is only about seniority, regardless of seniority or inferiority? Do you treat the princes and elder brothers as your own nephews?"

You don't dare to do this in front of your nephew, do you?

The Hesheli family doesn't care about monarchs and ministers in front of the prince?
Or is Niu Hulu's family acting as a senior in front of Elder Brother Ten?
Some bullshit.

Someone sent a message at the door, and the Hershey family hurried over to greet her.

"Seven Fujin, Nine Fujin, Ten Fujin..."

The Hershey family was respectful and bowed down to salute.

After she saw the ceremony, Qi Fujin raised his eyebrows, helped him up, and said: "Auntie is polite, and it's not someone else."

The female relatives were led directly to the main courtyard, and the elder brothers of the princes were led by Fa Hai to the front hall.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Brother Nine had no intention of standing out, so he whispered to Brother Ten, "I usually see Master Fa Hai as a sensible person, why are you confused again? I came here to be a welcome guest. Steward?"

Isn't it because he is regarded as a slave by his first brother, that's why brothers don't date each other?
Is this to curry favor with my cousin?
Regardless of identity?

Elder Brother Shi thought of Fa Hai's expression, and said in a low voice, "I guess I accepted the post just as a guest here, and I was temporarily recruited as a young man."

If Fahai did not show up, Longkodo would have to come out to greet him in person.

Otherwise, it would be outrageous for a ten-year-old child to bring a steward to welcome distinguished guests.

Brother Jiu curled his lips and said: "Just thinking about these crooked things, shouldn't it be enough to follow the rules?"

In the living room, San Age and Long Kedo were sitting separately as guests and hosts, and they were talking about the coating.

Long Keduo said: "The emperor is tolerant and raised Bao Yi's mind. He is just a slave, but he is as noble as the founder of the country. Don't talk about other people's families, just talk about Dong's family. It's just that the ancestors have made little achievements, so they occupy this place. An official house on half a street is simply unreasonable."

The third elder brother doesn't like Dong's family either.

He remembered clearly that there was a commotion in the Accounting Department, and Dong Dianbang was finally taken advantage of.

It's just that he was the head of the dining room of Changchun Garden, and he was directly promoted to the doctor of the accounting department.

The third elder brother said: "You all think of yourself as a serious master, and you don't take the prince elder brother seriously at all. The lack of children in various yamen also makes them become 'world jobs'. It's really ridiculous. Uncle didn't see it. During half a year of excitement, the Department of Punishment ransacked many houses. The land deeds and house deeds of each house were packed in a box, and the family had a large population. What kind of thing is it to take a woman from an official family of the Eight Banners as a concubine?"

Long Kedo was in his forties, with a haughty expression on his face, he said: "It's their bad luck to hit the hands of the master..."

Having said that, he pointed to the east and west and said: "The Dong family vacated the house, and for the rest, I want the shop under their name!"

The third elder brother was a little hesitant when he heard this, and said: "The Dong family is under the name of the empress dowager, and the empress dowager is also assigned to Ningshou Palace..."

It depends on the owner to beat the dog.

Not to mention that although Dong's family was attacked once, Dong Dianbang, the chairman of the meeting, was appointed by the emperor's father...
