My father-in-law is Kangxi

Chapter 29 Teaching and Learning

Chapter 29 Teaching and Learning
The young couple were talking when there was movement outside.

Nanny Qi reported through the door: "Fu Jin, someone from the House of Internal Affairs is here..."

Shu Shu looked at Brother Nine, Brother Nine thought for a while and said, "It should be sending people over. According to the rules, you can have eight court ladies under your name. In addition to the ones brought by your family, there are still four vacancies... "

Shu Shu nodded, motioning for Nanny Qi to bring someone in.

A middle-aged man in an official uniform came in, and he greeted him a thousand times when he came in: "The accountant of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Mr. Heishhou, has met Jiuye, Jiufujin..."

Brother Jiu nodded: "Get up..."

Followed by a row of court ladies, all dressed in the same color, green half-length gowns, loose-leg trousers, and long braids.

The taller ones were sixteen or seventeen years old, while the shorter ones looked immature, twelve or thirteen years old.

Shu Shu looked at her, and saw that the facial features in the first row were somewhat familiar, and her eyebrows and eyes seemed to be familiar.

She narrowed her eyes, and a person flashed in her mind, Gui Dan.

The eyebrows and eyes of this court lady are vaguely similar to Gui Dan, not very outstanding, but also watery.

Shu Shu sneered in her heart, this could not be Yifei's arrangement, it was probably Guo Luoluo's family or that Jin family's own idea.

Is it true that Brother Nine is fat and wants to come here as a court lady first, and then what?

Can this relative's relative be used as a real slave?

This is Yifei's sister-in-law's natal family, and they always look at Yifei's face.

Shu Shu knew that this kind of thing was inevitable, but she still felt disgusted and looked at Brother Jiu.

Brother Jiu didn't look at the maids at all, but asked Heishou as if thinking of something, "Is there anyone in charge of Zhengbai Banner's seventh internal supervisor?"

"This Wang Sanniu's family belongs to Zhengbai Banner No. [-] Internal Supervisor..."

Heishou pointed to the last court lady.

Brother Jiu turned his head and said to Shu Shu: "This inner tube collar is wrapped under the name of the empress..."

After thinking about it, Shu Shu understood Brother Jiu's intention.

Although it is the biological mother and son, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, life in the palace falls into the eyes of others, so there is such a bridge to be prepared.

"Listen to me, keep this girl..."

As Shu Shu said, she skipped the familiar court lady at the beginning, chose the second and third, and picked the round-eyed one from the small one at the back.

The court lady "Xiaoxuan" is thirteen years old, and those who are sixteen or seventeen are considered old people, which can just make up for the shortcomings of Xiaochun and the others.

There are two young ones left, and they should be trained well, so as to save them from not being picked up in the future.

Most of the maids' original names are Da Niu, Er Niu, etc., and they need to be given new names.

Shu Shu then said to the two older ones: "You two are called walnuts and peanuts...follow Madam Qi first..." Then she said to the two younger ones with round eyes: "You two are called Longan..."

The rest of Wang Sanniu is called "Hazel".

The two younger ones were doing odd jobs beside Xiaochun.

The four of them kowtowed to admit their master and retreated.

Brother Jiu looked at Shu Shu with contempt on his face: "You didn't just read one book of "The Law of the Qing Dynasty" to save your face, did you read the other books? You don't even know how to name a girl. Flowers and plants, why not? Peanuts, hazelnuts, what a decent name! It can be seen that I forgot to cover up for a while, and I have exposed my shortcomings, and I am a greedy mouth!"

"Flowers and grass are too delicate, I named them nuts..."

"Nuts? Hard fruit... what and what..."

Brother Nine still didn't quite agree, and shook his head in disgust.

Shu Shu just looked at him, disgusted like this?

Which grandson looked like a dog who saw meaty bones last night?

If you have the ability, don't go to the kang tonight!

Nine Brothers naturally didn't know what Shu Shu was slandering, but he was a little bit stared at, and then said a soft word: "You know how to learn Mongolian in advance, you are a clever... Wu sister-in-law is too dull, you Find a chance to mention her more..."

Shu Shu had a good impression of Wu Fujin, so she was naturally willing to help.

Brother Jiu raised his chin again, proud of himself: "It's just what you learned, you're stumbling, take a good cup of tea, and I'll teach you in the future..."

At this time, Shu Shu didn't hold back his mouth, and directly brought the teacup to Brother Jiu's mouth.

Brother Jiu looked surprised, drank the tea with Shu Shu's hand, and asked, "How do you know you're obedient?"

Shu Shu stuffed the teacup into his hand, and then handed the teapot: "Do you also respect me? If there is anything you don't understand in "The Law of the Qing Dynasty", I can also point it out to you!"

Ninth elder brother immediately exploded: "Who do you look down on? I still need your advice? I just learned it late. I was not interested in this before, so I learned French and Italian..." At this point, his eyes lit up: "Come on, come on Learn this from Grandpa, if you even learn this, Grandpa will convince you..."

As he said that, Brother Nine called He Yuzhu to come in, and ordered: "Go to the study in the front yard, and bring the French and Italian letters, which are on the desk, one in blue cloth, one in straw silk... "

He Yuzhu responded, and Brother Nine thought of one thing: "It's more convenient to walk in this palace... It's more convenient for you to walk in this palace... I will assign Sun Jin and Li Yin to you..."

These two are also Brother Jiu's personal servants, they are behind He Yuzhu.

After hearing this, Shu Shu couldn't help laughing: "My lord only laughs at me, not about myself... The name is not straightforward..."

Brother Nine snorted softly and said: "The person who is ordered by the master, as long as the master calls it casually... What's the matter, you are still thinking about trees, fruits and so on, you have to change the name of the servant..."

"Very good, no need to change, this name sounds auspicious!"

Shu Shu said with a smile.

Brother Nine couldn't help laughing, and then restrained himself: "I forgot, you are also a money fan..."

Shu Shu said honestly: "In this world, no matter how many troubles you have, you never have money... With enough money, you can solve most of the troubles. Isn't it more worry-free..."

Everyone disdains to talk about money and thinks it is vulgar. This is the first time Brother Jiu has heard such talk.

Apart from other things, Brother Jiu is not very old, but he already knows the benefits of the amount of money, so he can't help but doubt the financial situation of Dong E's family.

It seems that the scenery of Dong E's family is all on the surface, and the inside should be really not rich, otherwise Dong E's family would not feel this way.

How did he know that Shu Shu was just used to financial freedom, ever since he remembered the memories of his previous life, he was not used to asking for money, whether it was for his parents or relatives, or for his husband, Brother Jiu, who shared weal and woe.

While speaking, He Yuzhu carefully brought in a few books.

"Master, there are a total of two grass-colored books, all in foreign languages, so this slave brought them."

As He Yuzhu said, he carefully placed some books on the kang table.

Shu Shu lowered her head and looked at them, they were all quaint enough, as if they were old.

Elder Brother Jiu also flipped through it carefully, and handed it to Shu Shu: "These are all notes left by the missionaries of the previous dynasty, at least for decades... If you can learn it, I will copy a copy for you..."

Shu Shu took it and looked familiar.

It's French mixed with Latin.

Although Shu Shu is not proficient, she has learned it easily, and her heart is at ease.

There are five main rooms, and there are also study rooms, which are located in the west room.

The young couple moved over and sat on the kang by the south window as before. The two of them met each other with a small table in the middle, with a pen, ink, paper and inkstone spread out.

Brother Jiu was timid in front of Shu Shu because of the "Great Qing Law", and he has always wanted to make up for it. Right now, he is a teacher in high spirits, and even prepared a ruler. Master Yan, I will not show mercy..."

Shu Shu winked like silk, and glanced at Brother Jiu.

Small sample, if you really want to do it, who is afraid of whom?

Brother Nine had already started to read French aloud. He was sincerely embarrassed and said short sentences directly.

It was a very strange accent, Shu Shu could hardly hear it, but she could still distinguish it, it meant "how's the weather".

Seeing that Shu Shu was serious, Brother Nine raised his eyebrows: "Don't think that reading "The Law of the Qing Dynasty" is anything special, learning French is much more difficult than that..."

Shu Shu didn't answer, but spoke French slowly.

Perhaps it is because of the difference between the French pronunciation in later generations and the present, only five points are similar.

If so, Brother Nine was startled and couldn't help repeating it again.

Shu Shu looked at Brother Jiu's lip shape, remembered the point of his pause, and followed suit. This time, there were seven or eight points of his accent similar to Brother Jiu's.

Brother Jiu stared at Shu Shu with wide eyes: "Have you ever learned it?"

Shu Shu had no choice but to lie brazenly: "It's because I taught you to be careful, so I just followed up. In fact, I'm just parroting the tongue, and I don't understand the meaning..."

Her life trajectory is all in the capital, and she has never been in contact with missionaries at all, so naturally she has nowhere to learn.

Brother Nine nodded and said: "I didn't see it, but you really have some talent, and you are almost comparable to Master..."

Before the words fell, there was movement at the door.

Cui Nanshan raised his voice and said: "My lord, Fujin, the emperor sent someone over to enjoy the food..."

Shu Shu looked up at the clock in the study room, it was already early and it was time for dinner.

Because the two of them had breakfast late and were not hungry yet, they forgot to pass on the dinner.

The two got up, and the one who followed Madam Qi at the door was a forty-something blue-clothed eunuch.

"When the emperor saw this plate of Fu character plate Sixi Shaomai, he thought of Jiu Ye and Jiu Fu Jin, so he sent his servants to bring it..."

The eunuch bowed and smiled, offering the food box with both hands, but looked twice at the books on the kang table.

Brother Nine took the suitcase with both hands: "Please trouble Liang Wenda..."

According to the rules in the palace, those who came down from the imperial court had to be awarded first class. Cui Nanshan had already prepared it, but when he heard Brother Nine calling him, he changed the purse he had prepared and sent it out in person.

When everyone went out, Brother Jiu introduced to Shu Shu: "That's the former imperial eunuch Liang Jiugong, the eunuch of Han Ama's Haha Zhuzi, who just recently became the deputy head of the Qianqing Palace...be more polite in the future, there is nothing wrong..."

No wonder Brother Jiu restrained his arrogance and was so polite, it turned out to be him.

This is the most significant eunuch in the middle and late Kangxi period, and he has been in glory for many years.

When the appetizing dishes arrived, Shu Shu also asked someone to pass on the meals.

Although I mentioned in the morning that the prince's dining room will order food in the future, but today I didn't take care of it in a mess, and the regular dishes were still served.

This time there is more chicken, and the stewed duck is replaced with stewed chicken, braised pork, glutinous rice duck, braised lamb, and the vegetarian dishes are roasted mushrooms, mustard cabbage, fried celery, and garlic rapeseed.

Two items of dim sum, pork and cabbage buns, golden silk rolls.

A soup, spinach egg soup.

One meal, white rice.

This is Shu Shu's case sent over.

Because eggs and mutton are only available in Prince Fujin's daily ration.
