My father-in-law is Kangxi

Chapter 1855 Full of Blessings
Seeing Ninth Prince couldn't suppress the smile and was about to wag his tail, Shushu knew how happy he was.

Shushu is also in a good mood.

The Ninth Prince acted on impulse and wanted to settle the debt, which was indeed a bit inhumane.

It's rare that everyone follows suit to make up for it.

No matter what the outcome is, they have to appreciate the kindness.

Shu Shu said, "I've been free these days, would you like me to go around and thank everyone?"

Originally, the Ninth Prince planned to personally deliver the New Year gifts to the Governor's Mansion after the seal was sealed, but was stopped by Shu Shu.

If my father-in-law's family sends it personally, then should my uncles and brothers' family send it personally as well?
Do you want your uncle to send it off personally?
It’s better not to let others choose the gifts.

The annual gifts of each family were still sent according to the custom of previous years, and they were all sent around before the Ninth Prince was sealed.

In the days before the New Year, the Ninth Prince was idle.

The Ninth Prince thought for a moment and waved his hand, saying, "Forget it. I feel really bad about this. He is not a stranger. It would be unorthodox to be so solemn. Let's wait until the 30th banquet and thank him together!"

Shu Shu: "..."

This is the first time I realized that the Ninth Prince is a thin-skinned person.

Today is the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month, and we celebrate the Little New Year.

The Ninth Prince invited Lady Bo to come to the main courtyard to have a reunion dinner with everyone.

Between rules and comfort, Shushu chose rules, and sent Baiguo to the west wing to invite Princess Zhaojia over.

If you follow the rules, you will be invincible.

If you slack off and ignore the rules, you never know when you will be taught a lesson.

Princess Zhaojia can be unfavored, but she cannot be ignored.

Otherwise, it would be bullying.

The key lies in her identity. She is not a concubine, but a person chosen by Concubine Yi, the prince's biological mother, at the order of the emperor.

Ignoring Princess Zhaojia is, to put it in a serious way, unfilial.

Princess Zhaojia was wearing a large fur cloak that was purchased by the needlework room this year. She was wearing a half-new lotus-colored Manchu dress underneath, and she had only two velvet flowers and a pair of gold round flowers on her head.

Her face is also clean and fresh, without too much makeup.

She would receive enough food and salary all year round, and Shushu would also give her a share of the profits from her jewelry sales.

Although Princess Zhaojia is not a wealthy woman now, she is not short of money.

But she didn't like to dress up, and she had entrusted most of the money she had to Shopkeeper Xing, asking him to help her buy some antique jewelry.

Now that she had entered the room, she greeted the Ninth Prince and Shushu, and then paid her respects to the Lady Bo.

Mrs. Bo turned aside and returned the greeting.

Princess Zhaojia wants to pay her respects to the children again.

Shushu hurriedly asked Baiguo to support her.

"You are also an elder, you don't need to be so careful..."

A stepmother is also a mother.

Shushu asked Zhaojia Gege to sit down and told the children to greet Zhaojia Gege: "This is Zhaojia's mother, whom I met in September."

The three children saluted obediently.

Princess Zhaojia looked at them one by one, and said with a bit of disbelief, "In just a few months, several young masters have grown half a head taller?"

Shu Shu said: "Those who can eat and sleep can't grow up just by being exposed to the wind."

Princess Zhaojia has no brothers, but she has cousins ​​who have seen the children when they were young.

Not to mention that he looks like a mud monkey, he is also naughty and troublesome.

How can someone be so well behaved?
Even after sitting down, Princess Zhaojia's eyes were still on the child.

Shushu looked towards the Ninth Prince.

The Ninth Prince felt a little uncomfortable and gave Shushu a sidelong glance.

We had dumplings for dinner.

The meal is for one person, and the food and wine include a platter of cold dishes, two pots, and four hot dishes.

The children were taken care of by the nanny and ate dumplings with cold dishes.

With Princess Zhaojia around, neither Shushu nor the Ninth Prince said anything.

The children were all obedient and noticed something was different.

This Zhaojia's mother is not as familiar as his tenth uncle and tenth aunt.

After the meal, Princess Zhaojia said goodbye and left.

Shushu nodded, glanced at Baiguo, and asked Baiguo to take her back.

Mrs. Bo also brought Niguzhu back to Ning'an Hall.

The Fengsheng brothers were also sent back to the rear building.

The Ninth Prince glanced at Shushu and said, "That's weird. Why did you ask her to come out?"

Shu Shu said: "A reunion dinner should be a happy one."

Brother Ninth: "..."

He thought of Li Gege from Yuqing Palace and Liu Gege from the Fifth Prince's Mansion, both of whom were sent to Nanyuan, and he felt a little moved.

This guy stays in the west wing. It would be better if he doesn't come out. But if he does, not only will Shushu be an eyesore, but he will also be an eyesore.

But he is not a cruel person.

Because the two princesses committed faults, they were abandoned by the royal family and sent to Nanyuan.

Princess Zhaojia was a bit unruly when she was in the prince's residence, but she changed for the better later on. She has been behaving herself well in the mansion in recent years and has not made any mistakes.

The Ninth Prince was a little annoyed and said, "Even if she has no bad intentions, I still feel uncomfortable with her looking after the children. What if she has bad intentions? Don't let her come to the main courtyard casually in the future."

Shushu thought of Princess Guo Luoluo next door, who was a lesson for her.

Princess Zhaojia did not see her family, and Shushu did not bother to show any favors to Princess Zhaojia's family, for fear that they would mislead Princess Zhaojia into having other thoughts.

But Princess Zhaojia is getting older here year by year.

Even if you have a hobby of gold farming, it will be boring if you do it for a long time.

Last year, she thought that it would be inappropriate to always leave Bo Ge'er, the son left by Xianglan, in the Xing family, but she couldn't make up her mind to let Princess Zhaojia raise him.

Shushu stroked her belly and said nothing in front of the Ninth Prince.

Let’s wait for Baiguo to come back and see the results.

Seeing Shushu didn't say anything, the Ninth Prince thought she was in trouble and said, "Alas, Master knows you are soft-hearted, but this concerns three children, so it's better not to take any risks."

Shu Shu nodded and said, "Well, I'll listen to you. I know I shouldn't bully you, but I can't fool myself, so I can only let her down..."

The Ninth Prince snorted, "How can I be so unfair to her? I don't belong to her. If you don't bully me, I will have eighteen princesses, and it will never be Zhao Jia's turn to be favored by me!"

"Eighteen..."

Shushu narrowed her eyes and looked at the Ninth Prince, feeling itchy: "Is this what Master really thinks? Master is quite philanthropic. Apart from Yuqing Palace, no other family has a backyard with eighteen princesses..."

The Ninth Prince stepped forward and took Shushu's hand, smiling and saying, "I already have you, don't I? Let alone eighteen princesses, even if eighteen celestial beings were placed before me, I would not look down on them!"

"When I eat dumplings tonight, the one I dip them in is not vinegar, but honey, right?"

Shushu couldn't help but laugh.

"Hahahaha... I'm in a good mood. After today, when people talk about me, they will know that I'm popular and I get a lot of support from everyone..."

The Ninth Prince did not hide his joy and said, "You don't know, when I came out of Rehe during the summer, there were all kinds of messes on the road. I was really nervous and felt that I couldn't trust anyone..."

"Now that I think about it, I was really worrying for no reason. Even if my brothers have their own thoughts, what does it have to do with me..."

"If someone treats me well, I will treat him well. If someone treats me badly, I will treat him badly. Everyone should live their own life. Don't worry about other things..."

Shushu couldn't help but praise: "Master is wise."

One yard is one yard.

Respect other people's choices.

The Ninth Prince exhaled and said, "Fifth Brother is good this way... Tenth Brother is also good this way..."

He doesn't need to be embarrassed.

If these two really had something up their sleeves, he probably wouldn't be able to just stand by and watch.

That kind of situation was what his wife was worried about, and it would also bring turmoil to her and her children...

In the west wing of the courtyard, the north house.

Seeing Baiguo escorting her into the house, Princess Zhaojia knew that he must have something to say.

"But what does Fu Jin want me to do?"

Princess Zhaojia was not nervous. She asked someone to bring a stool to Baiguo and let her sit down to talk.

After a few years of getting along, she also realized that the mistress was a reasonable person. She didn't pretend to be magnanimous, but she wasn't mean to others either.

I have not overstepped my authority here, so there is nothing to feel guilty about.

Bai Guo said, "It's almost the New Year, and Fu Jin asked me to ask Gege if we should let the younger generation from her family come to the mansion to pay New Year's greetings to Gege? If someone comes, the mansion can prepare purses in advance..."

Princess Zhaojia heard this and shook her head without thinking, "I don't have any nephews or nieces, only cousins. They were all born after I entered the palace. I haven't even seen them, so don't bother with them."

Cousins ​​are not close to each other, let alone the younger generations.

Bai Guo was puzzled by her reaction and said, "Don't you want to meet her? Maybe there are sensible children who can stay for a while and entertain the princess..."

Princess Zhaojia hurriedly shook her head and said, "Young lady, you are a decent family member. You don't know that this person is difficult to deal with. My aunt and cousin's wife are not good people. With this gate between us, they can't see me. It's my blessing, and theirs as well."

Now that she is half-master, she cannot deal with others, but she can deal with her own family. Jiu Ye and Fu Jin will still support her.

"Hand the pole to them. They can fly to the sky, so let them live in peace! As for the children, forget it. I don't even have the patience to raise cats and dogs because I'm lazy. How can I have the patience to raise children? When the time comes, there will be chaos and it will be uncomfortable. It's better to raise goldfish. They are good for the eyes and you don't have to worry about them..."

Princess Zhaojia continued.

After hearing this, Baiguo said nothing else and stood up to leave.

Princess Zhaojia stood up, watched Baiguo go out, and did not sit down immediately. Instead, she walked to the goldfish tank.

There are a pair of tiger heads, a pair of red crane tops, and a pair of golden carp.

Is this goldfish blessed?
It won’t be blown by the wind, rained on, or caught by birds…

In the main room, the Ninth Prince was talking to Shushu.

"I remember that when I went to Changchun Garden to ask for names for Fengsheng and Akdan, I met the Grand Taiji of the Dalhan Palace. He was very attentive and knew who the real Buddha was. I went to the North Garden to pay my respects to the Empress Dowager..."

Shushu recalled the year when the Ninth Prince of Khorchin did something bad and instigated Princess Duanmin's youngest son, the deposed Taiji Ba, to plot for a position in the capital.

In the blink of an eye, a few years have passed and the Grand Taiji has come to Beijing. Could it be that he is here to handle this matter?
The Ninth Prince had already forgotten about this matter and said, "No matter why she came, it probably won't work. Khan Ama doesn't like her. It's really unreasonable. She's too arrogant and still sticks to the rules of legitimate and illegitimate. As a result, so many princesses who were brought up by Fu Meng have received the grace of Khan Ama, who allowed them to appoint princess chiefs and reward guards, but she is the only one who didn't. She deserves it..."
