My father-in-law is Kangxi

Chapter 755 Strange Noodles

On the ninth day of October, the holy driver patrolled the Yongding River and ordered the eldest son, fourth son, and thirteenth son of the emperor to accompany him.

When Sheng Jia left Beijing, the atmosphere in the palace was different.

Even the Ministry of Internal Affairs seemed to relax all of a sudden.

Brother Jiu was also in the right mood. Gao Yanzhong made the move, Xiaotangshan had a good ending, and he bought all the land that should be bought.

In addition to the plan, two more woodlands were bought ten miles away from the palace.

This seems to be head-to-head, but Brother Jiu specially ordered it.

There are two mature orchards, one for apples and pears, the other for walnuts and chestnuts.

There are dried and fresh fruits.

Don't worry about the rest.

Wait until next year when the spring is warm and the flowers bloom, and then plan the palace.

Two years is enough to perfect it.

"The tenth birthday, the fourteenth brother is thinking about coming over, and I will stay at home for a night..."

Brother Nine came back this day and told Shu Shudao.

A child, who was a bear at first, looks good now.

Shu Shu didn't have anything to hate, she just smiled and said: "The emperor is not here, so you don't need to ask for leave to go to the study?"

Brother Jiu shook his head and said: "How dare he skip class directly? Just come out early in the afternoon and enter the palace early the next morning."

Shu Shu nodded and said, "Is there wine for the tenth brother?"

Brother Jiu shook his head and said: "If you don't show it, it's just a birthday party. It should be a meal for the family."

Shu Shu didn't say anything else, just said: "Then my birthday, also from this example?"

"Yeah!" Brother Nine nodded and said, "Sisters-in-law will also be considerate. If you want to set up wine, we will do so next year."

Although no outsiders were invited for the two treats, they were the hosts and had to accompany them throughout the process, which was energy-consuming and not easy.

Shu Shu shook her head and said, "I'm so tired, and I don't like to treat guests."

Brother Jiu thought about the throwing fee last time, and still felt pain in the flesh, and said: "This brat's gift is sent back and forth, and our family will suffer in the future. There are several of them in their family... ..."

Shu Shu got a headache when she heard this, and said: "It's too noisy, I can't stand it, we just need one or two in our family."

Brother Jiu took a look at her stomach and said, "One is fine, your body is important, and having a baby is scary, I don't even dare to think about it."

Usually, it is uncomfortable to have a boil on the body, not to mention such a big fleshy bump, which will grow up little by little, and will eventually be born.

Shu Shu took his hand and said: "If this one is a little elder brother, then let's wait for a few years and wait until 24 or [-] to ask for a younger one; if it's a little princess, then take a break for two years to recuperate your body I don't dare to ask for another one, one after another like my sister-in-law!"

Brother Jiu tightened his hand, glared at her, and said, "Hurry up and take it back, what can you compare with sister-in-law? Don't be afraid of taboo!"

He snorted softly: "It's just this one, what if there are two, the palms of the hands and the backs of the hands, and we are biased?"

Shu Shu didn't argue with him, just smiled and talked about today's pastime, and said: "I didn't expect that playing gold is very interesting. I will give birth to a baby next year, and I will make a small object for my grandfather..."

As the coated men and women entered the mansion to perform their duties, everything in the Prince's Mansion became orderly.

Zhaojia Gege from Xixiaoyuan also got an old enshrined as a master and started his career in gold mining.

Just in front of the yard where she lived, Shu Shu asked someone to prepare a small gold and silver workshop. In addition to the basic tools for making gold, they also prepared a carbon furnace for forging.

The weather was just right today, and she had nothing to do, so Shu Shu went for a walk and fell in love with her right away.

Gold is soft, and it is fun to beat and brush directly.

Brother Jiu heard this, and hurriedly said: "Don't go in the future, it's not clean!"

Ok?
Shu Shu looked at Brother Jiu, not understanding why he said that.

Brother Jiu said: "Gold and silver craftsmen don't live long enough, and they are prone to lung disease in old age. It should be due to the poison of gold."

After saying this, Shu Shu understood.

It should be respiratory disease caused by dust entering the body, or lung disease caused by excessive heavy metals caused by accumulation.

She didn't pay attention to this matter at all.

She thumped Brother Nine and said angrily, "Since you know, why didn't you remind me earlier that it has something to do with Zhaojia Gege..."

Brother Jiu rolled his eyes and said, "That's what happens to veteran craftsmen who have been in the industry for ten or twenty years. As an apprentice, she doesn't know how to have the patience to learn for a few days. It's too long-term to think about it."

The double standard is obvious.

Shushu plans to remind Zhaojiagege to wear a mask or reduce the time in the gold and silver workshop.

Having hobbies is a good thing, but the body is also important.

The next day, after breakfast, Brother Nine went to the House of Internal Affairs, Shu Shu asked Walnut to invite Zhao Jiage over.

Zhao Jiagege was wearing homely clothes, the sleeves were purposely narrowed so that she could make gold with an apron on.

Seeing Shu Shu, Zhao Jia Gege came over with a few gold rings and said: "Look at Fujin, the rings pressed by the servant yesterday are made of plum blossoms..."

Shu Shu took it and looked at it. Because it was a pressed ring, the design and color were relatively uniform, and the weight was about the same. Each ring was only about [-] yuan. It was suitable for girls to wear, and the edges were polished so that it looked smooth.

Shu Shu praised: "That's right, it can be seen that I have the foundation, and I can do small jobs."

Zhao Jia pursed his lips and smiled, and said: "The slave has been drawing the shape of a kelp these few days, I finished it later, try it out, and you can choose the shape..."

Seeing that she was as happy as a bird, Shu Shu couldn't help but smiled, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll wait."

But what should be said, even if someone is called, he still has to say it.

She asked first: "Seeing that it's the middle of the month, next month we will prepare various annual ceremonies, and your family will also send people to reward things. Is there anyone left in your family? Is there anything you want to prepare yourself? "

Mrs. Zhao Jia smiled, and said: "There should be six people in the servant's family now, the servant Mafa, the servant Ama, Ernie, and the adopted cousin. I heard that they got married the year before last, and added last year. Got a nephew..."

A few years ago, the family sent someone to deliver letters to her, just thinking about her few taels of silver a year.

She held her breath and didn't respond.

It wasn't until she entered the second school last year and became the princess of the prince's backyard that her family stopped complaining about the tight life, and instead collected 100 taels of silver and asked someone to send it in for her.

Zhao Jia also accepted it calmly.

If he hadn't been selected to enter the palace, his family would also have to buy a dowry for him.

But what the prince said couldn't be hidden from Nanny Liu, so she was slapped on the sidelines by Nanny Liu, who used the excuse of arranging her to go to bed before Wang Gege and blackmailed the money.

Later, Fujin got a big wedding reward.

Over the past two years, although Fujin didn't let them go to the front yard, they never withdrew their daily necessities.

Now that she has saved some money, her original intention remains the same, she still doesn't want them to take advantage of her.

She thought for a while, and said: "Why don't you prepare the slaves yourself? Make clothes for the slaves Enie and Ama, and add a pair of purses, which is considered filial piety. They were willing to send the slaves into the palace at the beginning, but they chose to give birth to their own flesh and blood. Li, you don’t have to move forward to make do with it.”

Shu Shu let her go, and said: "I didn't know much about gold before, and I didn't know the disadvantages. I went to see it yesterday and found that it's not just smoky, but when the silver and gold are beaten, there are also pieces of gold and silver." Jumping out, people stay in the house for a long time, it is easy to get short of breath, since Gu Mafa is an old craftsman, you should know this shortcoming..."

After hearing this, Zhao Jia felt nervous, and said: "Fu Jin, it takes years for a master to feel uncomfortable, and a slave is still an apprentice, so don't worry about that."

Shu Shu comforted: "I won't stop you, but your body is your own, and you have to learn to cherish it, it's fine when it's hot, but in this climate, wearing a mask to cover your mouth and nose can make you feel at ease Some, in the dining room on weekdays, there is also a bowl of tremella soup, radish soup and so on to moisten the lungs."

Zhao Jia nodded hurriedly and said, "I must take good care of my body, I will sew a mask when I return home."

Others don't know what a mask is, but Zhao Jia knows it.

Last winter, the eunuchs who cleaned outside the two schools were rewarded with a three-piece set of cotton hats, gloves and masks.

This is also the reason why the nine princes and his wife have a very different reputation among the coating and eunuchs.

In the eyes of the eunuchs, Jiu Age and his wife are the most considerate masters in the palace.

There is nothing wrong with it on weekdays, but pity me.

Can sympathize with their hard work.

Thinking of this, Zhao Jia felt a little more at ease.

Fujin is such a person, he doesn't talk much, but he does a lot.

In the past two years, I have really been tolerant to them.

Gege Wang...

He was originally smarter than himself, but he couldn't think about it...

*
In a blink of an eye, it was October [-]th, Brother Ten's birthday.

There was no banquet and no posts.

However, according to the usual practice, birthday presents from various prefectures were also sent over a long time ago.

Shu Shu here, can't really just give a pair of lonely golden lions, but prepare a birthday gift, which is richer than other people's birthday gifts.

The birthday noodles and birthday peaches are the same, and then there are two clothes, a mink hat, a pair of cowhide boots, and a pair of purses.

There was no one else who accompanied me to eat birthday noodles, just Shu Shu and Brother Jiu, and a brother Fourteen who came back with Brother Jiu.

It is today's side, it seems that the thickness is not the same.

The ninth elder brother and the fourteenth elder brother looked down, and the two brothers showed pickiness at the same time.

These two are like brothers.

Seeing Brother Jiu wanted to nag, Shu Shu pinched him on the table.

The husband and wife had a tacit understanding, and Brother Jiu swallowed the words.

When he arrived at Brother Fourteen, Shu Shu gave him a sideways glance, and he became obedient.

Brother Shi, on the other hand, didn't pay attention to other people's eyebrows and eye lawsuits, only looked at Fujin Shi, and said in a soft voice, "Fujin has worked hard!"

Shi Fujin shook his head and said, "It's not hard work, I'm happy to do it, and I'm happy to make noodles for my grandfather."

Elder Brother Ten raised his mouth and said, "I'll make noodles for you on your birthday later..."

Shi Fujin thought for a while, and said: "Why don't we use silver silk noodles, it's a lot of trouble, and I'm confused by mixing noodles, I added noodles and water several times..."

Elder Brother Shi shook his head and said, "It's okay, if you can do it for me, I can do it for you too. You can teach me when the time comes."

Shi Fujin nodded and said, "I'll teach. I'll do it again when the time comes. I won't be so stupid anymore."

Elder Brother Shi laughed and said: "Not stupid, how smart, I learned it in one pass..."
