My father-in-law is Kangxi

Chapter 255 Pillow Wind

Xiang Lan said: "The days of my mother's happiness are still to come..."

The county magistrates are better off now.

Ever since Brother Nine acted as the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Xianglan could immediately sense the difference.

Speaking of before, no one in the Ministry of Internal Affairs dared to treat Empress poorly.

But still different.

After returning to the palace for two days, the difference became more obvious.

Even with the women and eunuchs in charge of the Yikun Palace, there is wind on their feet when they walk.

It's true that the princess is in charge of the palace, but my elder brother is in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

That's a lot of power.

On top of the Three Banners of the House of Internal Affairs, besides the emperor, is this Elder Brother.

Concubine Yi shook her head and said: "How can it be so simple to be in charge? What's more, the House of Internal Affairs has to watch so many things inside and out, who can satisfy everyone? The more you do, the better you do it, the better you will be scolded." more……"

But that's all she said, and she didn't mean to persuade her son to give up power.

The fifth elder brother was brought up by the queen mother, raised his status, and took up the word "expensive", so he was doomed to have no real power.

Concubine Yi thought that brother Jiu would be an idle prince, and it would be good if he didn't cause trouble.

Looking at him now is also restless. Instead of letting him out to run amok, he might as well be detained by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Not only gained real power, but also under the eyes of the emperor.

From now on, the three of them, mother and son, can speak more forcefully.

She remembered that the youngest daughter-in-law mentioned the lack of a nanny in the second house, so she discussed it with Xianglan.

"Not only is there a shortage of people in the second institute, but the Baylor Mansion also needs mature people to guard it... The prince lowered the flag and took the coat to go down. Those people have eyes on their foreheads, and they are all arrogant. Wufujin is young. , I'm afraid I won't be able to suppress it..."

Xianglan hesitated for a moment, and said: "Mother, if the second institute employs better people, and it is decent to serve in the palace... If you have a family, you will definitely not like to work outside..."

Lord Baylor has entered the flag, that is, the five flags.

The Baoyi family went to Baylor Mansion on a temporary errand, and they had no future to go to.

If the whole family goes there, no one will be happy.

On the contrary, on the side of the Second Institute, Brother Nine has not yet entered the flag, acting as the Ministry of Internal Affairs, is a hot stove.

After serving well, maybe even my nephew can ask for a future.

These reasons are superficial, the fundamental reason is that the emperor and the queen mother will not like Yifei to intervene in the affairs of Baylor House.

Yifei smiled wryly.

She wants to be unbiased.

But it cannot be impartial.

She lost her interest, and told Xianglan: "Forget it, forget it, forget it outside... Go out during your vacation and see your Aunt Chunlai and Aunt Chunxi, and see how their lives are going. If life goes well, your children will If you are filial, just ask if you want to enter the palace as a servant for a few years... If life is not going well and life is difficult, just leave a purse and take care of yourself..."

Xianglan was puzzled and said: "Your Majesty, shouldn't you choose someone who cares less to be an errand in the palace?"

Chunlai and Chunxi were the eldest maids by Concubine Yi's early years, and they have been released for many years.

Xianglan was still a little maid at the time, and had learned the rules from her two aunts.

Concubine Yi said: "The family is harmonious and beautiful, but there are many concerns outside, so there will be a sense of propriety in doing things; on the contrary, the lonely and widowed people can't be biased..."

Even if it was used by my side in the early years, it will take more than ten years to release it.

Who knows what's going on right now?
Since she is helping the youngest daughter-in-law to choose someone, Concubine Yi naturally has to choose the right one.

Pandan nodded, keeping it in mind.

Two here.

After Shu Shu delivered the housewarming gifts, she was in the mood to sort out the gifts for her natal family.

Needless to say, several elders.

Good leather.

Fifty years of ginseng.

Several copies should be prepared, two at home, one for parents, and one for uncles and aunts.

Three servings outside.

Aunt one.

A copy for the uncle of the government.

One for the elders of the second room.

The rest are peers.

Cousin, five younger brothers.

Cousin, cousin sister-in-law.

Kang Wangfu's cousin.

The cousin of Mingzhu Mansion.

The elder brother of the second room.

Uncle's cousin.

And Xiao Er's fiancée.

After Shu Shu made the list, she began to do the subtraction.

There is no way, because there is a housewarming gift, most of the twenty-odd cars have gone, and the remaining leather is not enough.

Let the elders come first.

When she was in the younger generation, she only kept her cousins ​​and younger brothers, as well as cousins ​​and sisters-in-law.

It's where cousin Kangwang's mansion and Mingzhu mansion are, Shu Shu hesitated for a while.

Also crossed out.

Human relations are not in a moment.

But those house deeds and land deeds of the old princess...

Shu Shu felt that after waiting for a while, she still had to go back by herself.

These house deeds and land deeds are the apology of the old princess.

The object of her apology is Shu Shu's grandmother.

Grandma died of illness for many years, these things should be decided by Ama and uncle.

As for the old grievances mentioned by the aunt in Horqin Taiji Mansion, I have to tell Ernie about this.

We must also guard against when Guo Luoluo's family turns over old accounts.

Thinking that she had been away for four months, during which time she and Ama hadn't seen each other for a few days, the elders must be thinking about it, so she called Walnut.

"Tomorrow, you can go for a walk with Mammy, meet me, Ernie and Amu when you get home, and tell me about what you have seen and heard in the past few months..."

Because Xiaochun stayed behind, in the past few months, Walnut has become Shushu's chief steward, who serves closely and knows a lot of things in detail.

Walnut agreed, hesitated for a moment and said: "Fujin, the empress is happy, the imperial doctor ordered to eat blood swallows, Madam, do you want to prepare a few boxes of bird's nests to take back..."

There is no shortage of bird's nests in their warehouses.

There are gifts from the empress dowager, concubine Yi, and "birthday gifts" from officials of various departments of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

When Shu Shu heard this, she remembered that among the birthday gifts she received, there were donkey-hide gelatin and sea cucumbers.

They are also nourishing.

Pregnant women are available.

She said: "You also find the donkey-hide gelatin and sea cucumber, and go to the imperial hospital to find the doctor Yin to see how the quality is..."

The effects of these two medicines are recorded in "Materia Medica", Shu Shu is familiar with it.

Mainly because she thinks too much.

I always feel that it is better to be cautious about the things that are imported.

Just as he was talking, Brother Jiu picked up the curtain and came in.

"Okay, what are you doing at the Tai Hospital? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Brother Nine was concerned, but he was confused. After listening to half a sentence, he looked at Shu Shulai.

Shu Shu smiled, waved his hand to send the walnuts away, and then said: "Okay, I just remembered the birthday gifts I received in Shengjing. There were donkey-hide gelatin and sea cucumbers, which are also good for pregnant women. Send the walnuts to ask about the quality and how to eat them. of……"

Only then did Brother Jiu feel at ease, sitting on the edge of the kang, and proudly talked about his achievements in going back to the Qing Palace.

Khan Ahmad agreed.

Zhang Baozhu's promotion to be a doctor of the House of Internal Affairs is no longer a doctor of the seventh rank, but a doctor of the fifth rank of the House of Internal Affairs.

Although the grade is still not high, it sounds more decent than before.

Shu Shu showed joy.

She is still very supportive of being able to help Fifth Elder Brother and Wu Fujin within her ability.

But joy is joy, and she also woke up.

This is power.

An official of the seventh rank can be promoted to a doctor of the fifth rank by leapfrogging casually.

She couldn't help worrying.

Brother Jiu set a precedent here, and he will be targeted by others.

Who doesn't have a few relatives and old friends?
But in that case, Brother Jiu should or should not?
Especially outside there is an eighth elder brother who is known for his popularity.

What if the eighth elder brother spoke?

Shu Shu didn't want the House of Internal Affairs to be a place for this virtuous elder brother to sell favors.

It will be Brother Nine who will clean up the mess.

His managerial rights will also be invaded and used.

Shu Shu thought about it, and said: "Master, it's not easy to talk about this matter outside, it's best to push it all on the emperor's head, it's better to treat it as the emperor's love for fifth brother..."

Brother Nine frowned and said, "It's not something that can't be seen, why can't you say it?"

Shu Shu said: "Master, think about it, when the fifth elder brother subsidized the master, did the whole world talk about it?"

Brother Jiu shook his head and said, "It's different..."

"Why is it different..."

Shu Shu softly said: "Fifth brother is concerned about the face of the master, and is afraid that others will talk about it, so he makes up for it again and again, and never mentions it to anyone... If the master talks about it all over the world, kindness is kindness, but it's not good. It seems that Brother Wu didn't care about the Yue family before..."

Brother Jiu looked at her, and snorted softly, "Master, why do you think that your reasoning is a bit crooked? Feelings will be done secretly in the future, and you won't get credit for it..."

Shu Shu held his hand, and said: "Master, he worked so hard for the sake of Fifth Brother's face, not for any credit..."

Brother Jiu raised his eyebrows and said: "You're right, if it's someone else, I wouldn't bother to worry about it..."

Shu Shu said with a smile: "Yes, my master is doing his job with all his heart, and he has not really become a big housekeeper. Anyone can give a few orders... Anyway, my master's status is here, and it's not like someone else just ordered a word and acted in a ruthless way." Yes, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has not done anything about manpower placement..."

Brother Jiu nodded: "That's natural. Master Zhang can raise his tune. It's the grace of Khan Ama, and it's also because of the status of the prince's father-in-law. It's a special case... If others want to come, then ask him, where's his face? It's the same." Is the prince's father-in-law..."

Shu Shu smiled.

"Before I was worried that this would be the first of its kind. The seven aunts and eight aunts outside were staring at me. When the time comes to ask me, will I agree or not? I think so, it can't be better..."

So the door on the eighth prince's side should be blocked.

Brother Nine thought that Shu Shu was talking about Guo Luoluo's family, so he snorted softly and said, "I'm not satisfied with being the fourth-rank master of ceremonies, but I want another one? Don't forget that a few months ago, Gui Dan just made up a third-class bodyguard." , It’s endless one time at a time, isn’t it? Turning around and making me anxious, I’ll roll it off for him..."

Seeing that he misunderstood, Shu Shu didn't explain, and said cooperatively: "There is also the Jin family, such a family who can make money, how could they give up the golden thigh of the master..."

Brother Nine heard this and couldn't help but take it seriously.

He thought for a while, then whispered: "Why don't I find someone to keep an eye on Zhaoxiang's place, and think of a way to get the girl from the Jin family out...Although the old fourteen has done some shopping, he is also my little brother. Such a girl from a family with a bad family style is placed next to him, and she will be kidnapped again..."

Shu Shu didn't speak immediately.

She thought of Soetu.

Behind the Jin family, there is a high probability that it is the Hesheli family.

In that case, the girl from the Jin family first stared at the Qianxi Second Office, and then went to the Zhaoxiang Office. She was just chasing the dragon and the phoenix, or did she have other intentions?

She thought about it for a while, and then dissuaded her: "It's better to be still than to move. Zhaoxiang's place is the empress of Yanxi Palace. I'd better not move lightly, so as not to cause people to misunderstand...they will move my elder brother's place, and when the time comes... Besides..."

Brother Nine nodded, with a serious expression on his face.

four...

Always ushering in a new owner...

Without Brother Fourteen, there will be others...

North City, Babeile Mansion.

Ba Fujin looked at the gift list of Brother Jiu and his wife.

All leather, nothing else.

The number is quite a lot, there are two cars.

With contempt on her face, she was talking to Nanny.

"Didn't you say that the dowry is rich? You really have a good face. This is to go to Mongolia to scrape land? How many wagons did you bring back when you lost someone? You will borrow flowers to present Buddha..."

At the time of speaking, the eighth elder brother just came back from the outside.

Knowing that the second institute had sent someone to send a housewarming gift, he took the gift list and looked at it, and said to Fujin with a smile: "They are all good leather, don't you want to make a new cloak? These rolls of sable fur are just right..."

Ba Fujin said with a half smile but not a smile: "This is my good brother, if you fool around casually, I won't be picky..."

Brother Ba frowned and said, "These are all usable things. It's hard to buy them in Beijing and China, even if you buy them, it's hard to find such fineness..."

Ba Fujin snorted coldly: "Anyway, I don't believe it, the housewarming ceremony of Wubeile Mansion is only these two cars..."

The eighth brother was silent.

He saw that Jiufu Jin acted with thorough etiquette and a good understanding of human relationships and sophistication.

She was preparing for the housewarming ceremony, so naturally she would not prepare Wubeile Mansion the same as other mansions.

In that case, I will offend my mother-in-law.

Ba Fujin only thought that the eighth elder brother had acquiesced in his own words, sighed, and said: "Anyway, the master knows it well, don't be fooled by other people's good words...the one on the other end is the elder brother of the same mother, There is no comparison here, and there is no need to compare..."
