My father-in-law is Kangxi

Chapter 1894 Please Come Out (Please Beg for a Monthly Ticket)
Niguzhu understood what Doctor Jiang said, and he didn't know whether to cry or not in Lady Bo's arms.

The lady stroked her back and said, "Aren't you afraid of taking medicine? It's great that you don't have to take medicine!"

As for cleansing the intestines and stomach, since it was the doctor's order, Mrs. Bo thought she should follow it.

Niguzhu has a big appetite, and the New Year's dishes are mostly greasy, so it is good to clean his stomach.

Niguzhu pouted, but still nodded obediently and said, "Well, it's better than taking medicine."

The Ninth Prince was standing nearby. Seeing that the elders and the younger ones had all agreed, he still did not give up and said to Doctor Jiang, "Can we just go for one day? It's hard to endure the hunger..."

He had been having a clean stomach since he was a child and knew how unpleasant it felt.

Why did he trust Mammy so much earlier?

This is because when he was a child, his nanny would secretly hide food for him during the "cleaning of his stomach" period.

Doctor Jiang remained silent and looked at Mrs. Bo.

Lady Bo was holding Niguzhu in her arms, still looking at the Ninth Prince eagerly, waiting for things to turn around.

Seeing that the lady didn't say anything and there was no hope, she said, "Father, it's okay. Two days is enough. If you're hungry, I'll drink rice tea..."

The Ninth Prince said, "The more you drink, the hungrier you will be..."

At this point, she remembered what Doctor Jiang said about her having stomach fire, so she said, "Drink honey water, it's sweet and filling!"

"Uh-huh……"

Niguzhu nodded quickly.

She loves drinking honey water the most, but unfortunately her father didn't let her drink too much before.

Doctor Jiang was standing by and secretly breathed a sigh of relief...

Illness comes from the mouth. Most of the illnesses this child has are caused by what he eats.

The eldest princess only looks chubby. After all, she is a multiple-birth child, so her stomach is weaker than that of ordinary children, and she can't stand eating too much...

In the west wing, Shushu looked at the clock and saw Weichu.

Not only was the Ninth Prince missing, but Niguzhu, who was supposed to be brought back from the Zhang family, was also missing.

She couldn't help but start to think wildly.

What's going on here?
Did something unexpected happen to Niguzhu?
Did it fall or get bumped, or something else?
The more she thought about it, the more scared she became, so she wanted to ask Bai Guo to go to the back hospital to ask.

Fortunately, the Ninth Prince knew that she would be worried about the children, so he returned from Ning'an Hall.

"This person has never been a father or mother, and he doesn't know how to take care of a child. How can he let the child eat so much?"

Although the Ninth Prince knew that Fusong and his wife did not intentionally ignore Niguzhu, he felt sorry for his daughter and was still a little annoyed, and could not help complaining to Shushu.

After Shushu understood the whole story, she felt relieved.

She said, "Niguzhu's appetite is bigger than that of ordinary children. He doesn't look hungry or full. He even eats at the tables in the inner and outer rooms. Who can prevent him from doing this?"

We all experienced this when we were children. Who hasn’t eaten too much when we were little?
Shushu remembers clearly that one year there was a drought and the watermelons were particularly sweet, so his family bought several baskets.

She took Fusong and Zhuliang to eat a watermelon weighing more than ten kilograms. At that time, her father and mother were scared, fearing that their stomachs would burst.

The Ninth Prince agreed when he heard this. The eldest daughter’s mind was all focused on eating.

When he was at home, Niguzhu would compete with his elders in wits and courage just to have a few more bites of food.

Shushu said, "Niguzhu is getting older, and we will go out to eat together more often. After this lesson, he will eat moderately when he is out, so it's not a bad thing."

Otherwise, if she was so unreserved when going out to a banquet, everyone would know that the eldest princess of the Ninth Prince's Mansion was a greedy girl.

Shushu was also afraid that Niguzhu's stomach would become too big and she wouldn't be able to adjust when she grew up, and would become a fat girl.

A little fat girl is cute, but a big fat girl is worrying.

The Ninth Prince was not happy to hear this and said, "Even if we go out, they are all relatives. Who would criticize me for my appetite?"

Shushu said, "Sir, you're such a fool. Didn't you say yesterday that you were worried about Fifth Brother's big appetite and that it might harm his health? Why don't you worry about Niguzhu anymore?"

Brother Ninth: "..."

In front of him was the fat Fifth Prince. If Niguzhu grew up like that...

The Ninth Prince shuddered and said, "I'll listen to you. I have to take good care of him. I can't let the child's stomach expand. The Fifth Prince's stomach is already expanded. He has eaten twice or three times as much since he was a child. Now that he's grown bigger, he can't stop..."

Since Imperial Doctor Jiang had examined Shushu's pulse and confirmed that there were no other problems except stomach fire, Shushu felt relieved.

She lay down yawning, saying, "You should go back and take a nap, too. You've been tired for quite some time."

The Ninth Prince also felt tired, and said to Shushu, "Taking care of a child is really tiring. No wonder the county lady and Madam Qi have both aged in the past two years. Give Madam Qi double the salary, or I will feel guilty."

Mrs. Bo is the elder, so it is not appropriate to thank her with gold or silver; as for Madam Qi, she has to take care of two people at the same time, so she is indeed more busy.

Shu Shu said: "Well, I gave it to you a long time ago, don't worry, Master!"

Aunt Qi has no other relatives, so Shushu will definitely be responsible for her retirement.

However, Shushu did not give less monthly allowance to Aunt Qi because of this.

A full wallet is also a guarantee for Qi Ma, who has no children.

No matter how old you are, you will always feel more secure if you rely on yourself rather than on others.

The Ninth Prince thought for a moment and said, "Cui An-Da is two years younger than Madam Qi. She can't be kept in such pampering forever. She will become stupid. Once the inner study is tidied up, I will ask him to help take care of her."

Shu Shu: "..."

After leaving their branch residence, Manager Cui began to live a life of luxury.

But what the Ninth Prince said is right. Manager Cui is only in his fifties, and it is a bit early for him to retire directly.

Shushu said, "It would be good if you could ask the chief steward to teach Fengsheng and his sister Mandarin. Wasn't it the chief steward who taught me Mandarin?"

The Ninth Prince thought about it and agreed.

He originally wanted Guiyuan, but Guiyuan could only teach for a year or two at most, and then he would have to go to Suzhou, and by then he would still have to find a Chinese teacher for the children.

Manager Cui could teach the Ninth Prince Chinese and Chinese literature, so naturally he could also teach Fengsheng and his sister.

The Ninth Prince nodded and said, "That's great. I'm free now. I'll go check on An Da right away!"

After leaving the west wing, the Ninth Prince remembered that Shushu had asked him to deliver food to the Zhang family before, so he did not rush to the back courtyard, but took He Yuzhu to the greenhouse.

Thinking that Manager Cui loved to eat rice rolls, the Ninth Prince took He Yuzhu to pick some radish sprouts and Chinese cabbage, cut some green onions and coriander, and added a few cucumbers.

The small vegetable basket was filled to the brim.

He Yuzhu carried the vegetable basket, and the master and servant left the house through the west corner gate.

It's closer to the North Second Hospital from here.

Chief Steward Cui is now in retirement and does not report to work in the Prince's Mansion on weekdays. Instead, he lives in the North Second Hospital.

His nephew Cui Baisui would also come here after returning from work.

He Yuzhu and Li Yin, the two eunuchs who served as eunuchs beside the Ninth Prince, were also raised by Chief Steward Cui and they often came to visit him.

Mr. and Mrs. Fusong were going home, and their carriage happened to pass through the corner gate.

Just like when they met the emperor, it was still the brothers Zhang Tingyu and Zhang Tingguan who saw him off.

Seeing someone coming out of the corner gate, the driver slowed down to make way.

Fukumatsu was sitting in the carriage. He lifted the curtain and saw that it was the Ninth Prince, so he hurriedly got out of the carriage.

"Jiu Ye, you are..."

The Ninth Prince gestured to the north and said, "I'm free now, let's go check on An Da..."

Fusong listened and felt a little worried.

When Fusong first became the chief emcee, he received a lot of advice from Manager Cui.

Chief Steward Cui is the chief steward of the Prince's Mansion. Without his cooperation, Fusong's master of ceremonies would not be able to do his job smoothly.

"Is the butler feeling unwell? How about I go over and take a look?"

Fusong Road.

The Ninth Prince waved his hand and said, "I'm not uncomfortable. I'm fine. I just thought that An Da would be idle anyway, and there's no one to look after the inner study, so I planned to ask him to teach the children Mandarin."

Fu Song: “…”

I have to say, he is a really good candidate.

Although Chief Steward Cui is not a man who seeks peace and quiet, he was appointed by the Emperor after all.

You can't just sit idle all the time.

Others watching would not think that the Ninth Prince and his wife were considerate, but rather that they were on guard against someone.

He didn't force it, and said, "Then I'll go see the old butler in a few days..."

Because the Ninth Prince was on the roadside, the Zhang brothers also got off the carriage and came to pay their respects to the Ninth Prince.

The Ninth Prince met the two brothers, nodded to Zhang Tingyu, looked at Zhang Tingguan, and said, "How about staying in the Imperial College? If someone is blind and bullies you, just tell Fu Song and let Fu Song support you!"

Zhang Tingguan listened and said, "Thank you, Master Jiu, for your care. We are all in harmony. Master Fu Si is also my classmate. I haven't encountered any domineering classmates."

The Ninth Prince then remembered that Zhang Tingguan and Xiao Si were classmates, and nodded, "That's good. Xiao Si is a local tyrant, and there shouldn't be anyone so blind as to bully him."

Seeing that the two brothers were a little reserved, after saying these two sentences, the Ninth Prince waved his hand and said, "You guys go about your business. I'm leaving now!"

He knew that if he didn't leave, it would be difficult for others to get on the car first, so he took He Yuzhu away.

Fusong told the Zhang brothers about the Ninth Prince's visit to Steward Cui, and repeated Steward Cui's identity.

The Zhang brothers did not ask any more questions. They all got on the carriage and left the back alley of the Prince's Mansion.

In Fusong's carriage, Zhang, as a female member of the family, did not get off, but she heard everything.

She said to Fusong, "The Ninth Prince does not act like a prince, and he is also tolerant to others."

Fu Song nodded and said, "That's true, but Chief Steward Cui is different from ordinary servants. He was appointed by the emperor after Jiu Ye was assigned to the palace at the age of six. He not only takes care of Jiu Ye's affairs, but is also responsible for teaching Jiu Ye Mandarin and Chinese..."

Zhang nodded, and understood that Cui Zongguan's identity was equivalent to a father and a half-mentor...

In the carriage of the Zhang brothers.

Zhang Tingguan felt that he had learned a lot today.

"The Ninth Prince's behavior is different from what is said in the legend. People outside say that this Prince is the concubine's youngest son, the emperor's beloved son, and that he behaves in a domineering manner and is a dandy..."

Zhang Tingguan finally understood why his elder brother was so happy with his current post as the ceremonial officer of the Beile Palace.

It's not just because of the emperor's order, but also because the Ninth Prince is so sincere to others.

Seeing is better than hearing.

Just by looking at the eldest princess' closeness and respect for He Yuzhu, you can tell that it was taught by her parents through words and deeds.

If this is the case for eunuchs, it will be no different for others.

Zhang Tingyu had stayed in the capital for a long time and knew that the conflict between the Ninth Prince's Mansion and the Prince Xin's Mansion and the Prince Zhuang's Mansion was not just a rumor, but a true fact.

He nodded and said, "The Ninth Prince is proud of his superiors but not merciful to his inferiors, and he bullies the strong but not the weak. This is probably what Big Brother values..."
