My father-in-law is Kangxi

Shu Shu did not mention that Fucha's reputation would implicate the Twelve Fujin.

It is useless to say.

If the Fucha family is carrying this suspicion, then the elders in the harem will be more scrutinized when they look at the inner courtyard of the twelfth prince.

This means that both are prosperous and suffer.

Shu Shu put down the orange, feeling uncomfortable.

She also suspected that Eighth Prince's "seed" was not good.

Pregnancy for ten months is itself a process of survival of the fittest.

But whether she can have a child and whether she can keep a child, in the eyes of the world, is the woman's responsibility.

Just like myself, if I hadn't given birth to Fengsheng and the three brothers, even if I knew that it was difficult for Brother Jiu to have heirs, as long as I didn't get pregnant, the elders would be dissatisfied with me, and the palace would constantly criticize me. Come.

Brother Jiu saw that she had stopped eating and there was still half of it left, so he asked, "Is this sour?"

With that said, he took it and said: "It's okay..."

Shu Shu picked up the oranges and said, "I said before that Ji Hong's letter mentioned that less than [-]% of the oranges were picked?"

Brother Ninth said regretfully: "It doesn't mature until the end of September or the beginning of October. The rest can only be processed locally in Suzhou or made into preserves."

Shu Shu said: "The canal from Suzhou to Dezhou is still open. Dezhou is only [-] miles from the capital. If we don't transport oranges again, we will arrive just in time for the Chinese New Year."

Brother Jiu shook his head and said: "Oranges have thin skin, unlike tangerines and oranges that can be stored for a long time. It is barely enough for two months, but they will dry out after a long time."

Shu Shu could not help but be moved, and ordered Bai Guo: "Bring a handful of white wax, and then a charcoal basin, and an empty basin."

Bai Guo responded and came back with something after a quarter of an hour.

Brother Jiu asked curiously: "Speaking of oranges, why do you think of white wax?"

Shu Shu smiled and said, "I'll watch it first and ask again later."

After Shu Shu melted the candle, he rolled an orange inside and sealed it with a layer of wax.

Brother Jiu Age understood it all at once, his eyes lit up, and he pointed: "This can be stored for a long time."

Shu Shu nodded.

In later generations, fruit waxing was a mature preservation technique.

Today’s candles are all made of suet, which can be considered food-grade wax.

Seeing that there was still melted wax, Brother Jiu also started to wrap a few oranges.

It wasn't until there was no more wax water that he was still interested and looked at the remaining candles.

He thought about it in his mind and said to Shu Shu: "It's still not appropriate. A pound of white wax costs two cents of silver. Looking at these oranges, if you want to seal them with wax, a pound of oranges will cost nearly one cent of silver. That's not all." In terms of travel expenses and losses, if you really want to bring wax-sealed oranges to Beijing, the cost alone will cost you two cents. We only use them as gifts, and we can't sell them outside, so we will lose money."

Two coins can buy three measures of rice, enough to feed one person for a month.

When Shu Shu heard the cost, he lost interest and said, "I just want it to be simple. If it's really profitable, the merchants would have already thought of something."

After everything was moved down, there was movement outside.

It was Brother Ten who sent Wang Changshou over, and Shi Fujin had just launched.

The admission mama has already made preparations, and there are also Dr. Jiang and another doctor on duty in the mansion.

Shu Shu and Brother Jiu looked at each other, both a little nervous.

The ninth elder brother is naturally looking forward to his younger brother giving birth to his eldest son.

Shu Shu thought about the fact that in history, most of the sons of the ten princes were born to Guo Luoluo Gege, and it took many years for the ten princes to give birth to a legitimate son.

Since history has changed its direction, Shu Shu hopes that the Ten Fortunes will bear fruit first and then bloom.

It can be seen from the daily life of each family that having the eldest son will be more stable. However, if the eldest son is a concubine, it will be somewhat troublesome.

Without delay, the two of them changed their clothes for going out and went next door.

Shifujin's delivery room was also prepared in advance and was located in the back room of the main courtyard.

The tenth prince and the two imperial doctors were waiting in the main room. The delivery room was located in the east room. Prince Fujin and the midwife were inside.

Although Shu Shu had only given birth once, she was also a rich theorist and knew that it would take at least several hours from initiation to delivery.

The tenth elder brother was usually calm, but now he was a little flustered and looked dull. When he saw the ninth elder brother arrived, he seemed to have a backbone, stood up and said: "Ninth elder brother..."

Brother Jiu said: "It's time to wait for the good news."

"Um……"

Brother Ten nodded, but still felt a little uneasy.

Shu Shu said: "Then let me go to the back room and have a look."

Only then did the tenth prince come to his senses and said, "Excuse me, sister-in-law nine."

Shu Shu walked through the second room and entered the second room.

Prince Fujin is helping Shi Fujin to walk.

Shi Fujin's head was covered with sweat, but there was a smile on his face and joy in his eyes.

Seeing this, Shu Shu also laughed.

It is said that people who love to laugh have good luck, and Shifujin will also have good luck.

Shi Fujin also saw Shu Shu and said briskly: "Sister-in-law Jiu, I'm going to give birth!"

Shu Shu calculated the time in her mind and found that it was almost nine months old, which would be full term in later generations, so she nodded and said: "It's good. I'm going to have confinement now, and I'll have confinement at the end of the twelfth twelfth lunar month. I won't delay the New Year feast."

Shifu Jin was looking forward to it and said: "I don't want to eat meat anymore. When the time comes, I will eat dumplings. I want to eat meat dumplings and sugar dumplings..." Shu Shu said: "When the time comes, I will eat the dumplings from Baiweiju. I’ll prepare a few tables for you, both sweet and savory.”

Shi Fujin swallowed his saliva and said, "The more I talk about it, the more I get greedy."

Shu Shu immediately said: "Then eat. Only when you are full can you have the strength."

Shifujin said: "Then I can eat a lot."

There was a maternity nurse in the delivery room, so Shu Shu didn't interfere and went out to help Shi Fujin prepare food.

"Two large bowls of noodles, six poached eggs, a plate of ready-made cooked meat, a plate of fried milk tofu, honey water is also prepared..."

Shu Shu ordered Wang Changshou.

Wang Changshou immediately went to the dining room to prepare.

Brother Jiu asked: "Is this too much preparation?"

Shu Shu whispered: "There is also Prince Fujin. I don't know how many hours it will take."

Brother Jiu nodded and said, "Yes."

The tenth brother felt that the days were like years, so he took out his pocket watch and took a look at it, and said, "Cai Shen Zheng, can I give birth today?"

Brother Ninth also learned a lot about childbirth the year before last and said: "The first birth will be slower, it's normal..."

Even if Shi Fujin adjusted her diet, her figure was plumper than the average person, but the size of her belly seemed to be good. In the last few months, the imperial doctor's pulse report showed that the fetal pulse was strong.

Shu Shu thought about whether Shi Fujin liked movement or quiet, and felt that the birth should be smoother than others.

After a while, the noodles and eggs were cooked and brought in.

Shi Fujin was indeed happy and couldn't take his eyes away from the noodles.

Prince Fujin saw that she only ate noodles, so he gave her two chopsticks of beef and said, "Eat more meat. Eating meat will give you strength."

In the past few months, Shi Fujin had either chicken or beef every day. He had already had enough and said: "I don't want to eat meat..."

Her mind was filled with dumplings, noodles, steamed buns and pancakes. If it weren't for her love for her tenth brother and her children, she would have been unable to hold on.

Prince Fujin felt distressed, caressed Shi Fujin's back and said, "When the child is born, he can eat whatever he wants."

Shi Fujin remembered the breast milk incident.

The big princess in Sanbeile Mansion was born prematurely and was weak, so she got better after being fed with milk.

There are three Fengsheng brothers and sisters, which are better examples.

Most of the women on the grassland also nursed their children by themselves. The county prince Fujin also nursed Shi Fujin when she gave birth to him. Later, when she became pregnant with another child, she changed to a nanny.

Shi Fujin said: "Don't worry, you can wait until after confinement before eating..."

When it was time to light the lamp, Shifujin could no longer walk and began to stay in bed.

The few people waiting in the main room were not in the mood to have dinner, so they took a random bite and continued waiting.

This wait is past the third update.

The ninth elder brother already had a pain in his buttocks from sitting down, but he didn’t say anything when he saw the tenth elder brother’s pale face.

Shu Shu thought more and asked Brother Ten in a low voice: "Have you prepared the ginseng? There is also alcohol and scissors..."

After hearing this, Brother Ten's face turned even paler, and he nodded and said: "Everything is ready, including ginseng slices and... ginseng..."

Shu Shu listened to the movement inside, and Shi Fujin was already crying.

"Master...it hurts..."

Brother Ten couldn't sit still anymore, so he got up and went into the second room, trying to pick up the curtain.

Prince Fujin heard the commotion and came out to stop him, saying, "Good boy, both the Changsheng Heaven and the Buddha will bless Little Buyin."

Brother Ten said: "I want to go in and accompany Buyin..."

Prince Fujin shook his head firmly and said, "Brother, little Buyin will be distracted. If you go in, she will become weak if she has someone to rely on."

Brother Ten really wants to say that if you are weak, you are weak.

Shu Shu knew that not letting men enter the delivery room was not only a superstitious statement, but also for the sake of the couple's relationship.

In future generations, there will be men who accompany children during childbirth, and they will be completely incapacitated.

Not every man can bear to witness a new life.

She pushed Ninth Elder Brother and signaled Ninth Elder Brother to persuade others.

Brother Jiu stood up and greeted: "Old Ten, come out quickly. Listen to Fujin and don't follow him..."

Prince Fujin refused to give in, and the ten people inside did not dare to cry after hearing this, saying: "Don't come in..."

The tenth elder brother said: "Then you listen to your mother-in-law and I will stay with you outside."

Bu Yin responded sharply.

Only then did the tenth prince return to the main room.

Seeing that he was restless, Shu Shu got up and entered the delivery room.

The ninth elder brother said to the tenth elder brother: "With the county prince Fujin and your sister-in-law here, my siblings are more at ease than you, so don't worry too much..."

Brother Ten nodded, not letting himself think about the worst possibilities.

He will be a husband who loves his wife, an Ama who loves his children, and will not be indifferent to any of them...

The next update will be around 10 noon on August 13
