My father-in-law is Kangxi

Chapter 403 The Wind in the Forest (Third)

When He Yuzhu came back with big and small bags, Jiu Gege had already changed his mood.

The two aunts and sisters-in-law spread out their pens and ink on the desk, each making a shopping list.

Jiugege is elegant, and when it comes to purchasing from Jiangnan, what you want is various colors of gold-painted silk paper, lake brushes, Hui ink and so on.

Here at Shu Shu, what she thinks about is mostly food and drink, such as lotus root powder, bud tea, ham, dried bamboo shoots, etc., as well as famous Jiangnan products such as silks, satins, ornaments, and velvet flowers.

Write what comes to mind.

I also thought that Shengjia would go to Jinan, so I can add a few specialties from Shandong.

Kelp, seaweed, Eucheuma, dried razor clams, scallops, dried shrimp and the like.

After Jiugege finished writing what he wanted to buy, he put down his pen.

At first she was too embarrassed to read it, but when she saw that Shu Shu had written a page and started another page, she picked it up and said, "This is too much!"

Shu Shu had already finished writing the second one, and said: "It's just a lot to look at, whether it's convenient or not at that time, if it's convenient, bring more, if it's not convenient, buy some and try it first, and if you use it later, go to the provinces in the capital The chamber of commerce buys."

Not bad money.

Now that the canals are smooth and the capital is a place where rich and powerful gather, what things can't be bought?

Jiu Gege's eyes fell on the ham, and he said, "Grandmother loves steamed ham..."

Shu Shu said: "This is pickled and has a lot of salt, it's not good for old people..."

Having said that, she paused. Later generations already have light ham with reduced salt. I don't know if there is any now.

Jiugege glanced at the book on the desk, and said, "Is this also what is said in the "Materia Medica"?"

Shu Shu shook his head and said: "The "Materia Medica" only says that salt is cold in nature, sweet and salty in taste and non-toxic, mainly because it has memorized several prescriptions for using salt as medicine..."

She organized the vocabulary in her mind.

Jiugege is not as easy to fool as Jiugege.

"I read it in a Xinglin Handbook. Salt seriously hurts the kidneys..."

Shu Shu said.

It was the first time for Jiu Gege to hear this statement. When it came to the Queen Mother, she asked sincerely: "What is the reason for this?"

Shu Shu thought of something, said: "Sister, do you know that tofu is made with brine?"

Jiugege nodded and said: "I've heard the saying, tofu in marinated water——one thing is one thing!"

Just like sister-in-law Jiu and elder brother Jiu.

Brother Jiu was bluffing, but in fact he listened to Sister Jiu.

Shu Shu said: "Brine is also called salt bittern, and some ingredients in it are salt. When the brine is poured into the soy milk, the soy milk will coagulate... If you eat too much salt, although the blood will not clot, it is the same reason. The blood on our bodies Walk the kidney meridian..."

Jiugege showed admiration on his face.

There was movement downstairs, and He Yuzhu came back.

Shu Shu took Jiu Gege down the stairs.

I saw He Yuzhu standing there, with two big bamboo baskets on the table next to him.

Xiaochun and Walnut are looking at the things inside.

"Where's Master? You won't be coming back today?"

Shu Shu didn't see brother Jiu and asked.

He Yuzhu nodded and said: "The emperor will move tomorrow morning, and he sent word that the princes will accompany him, and the master will go back to elder brother's place with Master Shi..."

Shu Shu was even more curious about the news about Suo'etu and Tong Guowei, but it was difficult to ask in front of Jiu Gege, so he looked at the two bamboo baskets and said, "What is this?"

He Yuzhu said: "Master eats this meal at Sibeile Mansion at noon, and thinks it tastes good. I want to ask Fujin to taste it. The fifth master also ordered to buy more and bring them to the Queen Mother, as well as sesame seed cakes and coriander. , shallots... Today, the Dongzicai shop has small cucumbers and cabbage, and the servants are all wrapped up..."

Shu Shu's brows and eyes brought a smile, the feeling of being cared about was really good.

There are two big baskets in front of me, ten catties of cooked lamb tripe, ten catties of stewed mutton, one hundred sesame seed cakes, and half a basket of vegetables.

Shu Shu made the distribution first, packing up a small cucumber, Chinese cabbage, two catties of stewed mutton, and ten sesame seed cakes.

As for the lamb tripe, it is an organ after all, and has a strong smell, so it is not suitable for pregnant women, so it is not added.

This filial piety was given to Concubine Yi, and Xiaochun asked Xiaochun to bring walnuts to send over.

"Tell my mother that I won't go today. When the fifteenth day comes, my sister-in-laws will come over, and I will follow Wu Fujin to greet my mother..."

Shu Shu said.

Xiao Chun made a note, took walnuts, and left with his things.

Then four catties of lamb tripe, four catties of mutton, two servings of small green vegetables, and thirty pancakes.

This is to honor the Empress Dowager, put it aside for now, Shu Shu plans to send it there in person.

Looking at it, Jiu Gege knew that there were two toffees and their princesses, otherwise how could the queen dowager eat so much?
It seemed to be the same before.

Every time the Second Institute sent something to the Empress Dowager's Palace, the amount was quite large.

But Mrs. Jiu never pointed it out.

The imperial grandmother was also vague.

This is also the tacit understanding between the grandparents and grandsons.

Shu Shu noticed that Jiu Gege was looking at her, but she didn't take it seriously.

She was thinking about the princess.

Although it is not a good thing, it is not worth giving it away with great fanfare, but it is not good if it is not given away.

With Kangxi still around, who knows if he will pick a gift.

Shu Shu also gave out two catties of lamb tripe, two catties of mutton, two servings of green vegetables, and twenty pancakes.

She told He Yuzhu: "You just go there yourself, and say that I have a new meal outside, so that the princess can try something new..."

Jiu Gege was listening, very surprised, hesitantly said: "Sister-in-law Jiu, is it convenient over there?"

She is a princess, walking in the West Garden naturally does not shy away from the palace people of Yuqing Palace, and she also takes the east road when traveling.

It should be because she saw the abnormality of the Douyuan Bookstore, and she was afraid that Shushu would not know, so she opened her mouth to remind her.

Shu Shu nodded and said: "Convenience, the prince has been caught in the cold these few days, and the concubine is sick, maybe he just wants to eat something refreshing..."

He Yuzhu picked up his things and went.

He is the eunuch of the ninth elder brother Haha Zhuzi, and he always goes out with the ninth elder brother. It is not considered negligent for him to deliver things here.

The remaining few uncles, from the twelfth elder brother to the fifteenth elder brother, are all the same.

According to the head, each person has half a catty of mutton, half a catty of lamb tripe, half a portion of green vegetables, and five sesame cakes.

This allowed Xiaotang to send it over.

There are not many things left in the two baskets.

Shu Shu changed into the clothes she was going out, took Jiu GeGe's arm, and took Xiao Song and Xiao Yu to the Empress Dowager's Palace.

With admiration on Jiugege's face, he asked in a low voice, "Sister-in-law Jiu, why are you so bold?"

Shu Shu blinked and said, "Why are you so bold?"

Jiugege glanced at the direction of the Douyuan Bookstore: "Others treat the prince and princess with great respect..."

It can also be said to be respectful.

They are all princes and princesses, who wants to have multiple little masters?

Shu Shu can't tell the truth, this is not for the prince or princess, but for Kangxi.

That one is the one who protects the calf, and whoever dares to "offend the crown prince" at this time will definitely not end well.

She thought about it and said: "My family and the Crown Princess' natal family are double in-laws. After entering the palace, the Crown Princess will take care of her more..."

Jiu Gege admired him even more.

When I was in the palace before, I never heard of any personal relationship between the Second Institute and Yuqing Palace.

Maybe it's because the two places are far apart, or the age difference between the two sisters-in-law is so large that they don't see much movement.

As a result, when they arrived at the West Garden, the prince and princess seemed to be in trouble, so Shu Shu and brother Jiu did not avoid it. They went to visit the princess and gave something today.

Neither humble nor overbearing, neither alienated nor separated.

Jiugege thought of a word, "wind in the woods".

It's just that Shu Shu acts grandly, which is different from ordinary women.

No wonder the emperor's grandmother said that she was kind and friendly.

Unbeknownst to Shu Shu, her image in Jiugege's heart had grown up, already shimmering like gold.

She glanced at Jiugege and said, "My sister eats too much vegetarian food. Even if she doesn't like meat, she still eats more eggs and milk. It's not good to be too thin!"

She could see that Jiugege was a small house girl who liked to be quiet and not to move.

Eating habits are also too bland, completely different from the Queen Mother.

I'm seventeen, and I feel a little malnourished...

There is a saying in later generations that love is worth a thousand dollars, but it is not equal to four or two chests.

If it is not improved, no matter who is designated as the forehead, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the husband and wife to reconcile.

Jiugege followed her gaze and lowered his head, blushed, and said coquettishly, "Sister-in-law Jiu..."

Shu Shu cleared her throat, and said: "The body is your own, and it has been recuperated to save you from suffering in the future..."

Jiugege thought she was talking about women's birth, and quickly shook his head: "Don't talk about this..."

Shu Shu closed her mouth, but she knew that she would have to speak in the future.

If others don't exercise, they may suffer from having children.

Jiugege here is terrible.

Died of heatstroke...

The body is too weak...

Danbo is the palace of virtue.

The queen mother was sitting on the kang, holding a root of sandalwood ruyi in her hand, and was teasing a raccoon cat.

It is a two- to three-month-old kitten, a yellow tabby cat.

When Shu Shu saw her, she couldn't move her eyes. After greeting the queen mother, she squatted on the edge of the kang, stroking the kitten.

"This is sent by fifth elder brother. If you like it, you can take it back and keep it..."

The Queen Mother said kindly.

Shu Shu shook her head and said, "It's enough to have a good time here with the emperor's grandmother, I'm too lazy..."

Besides, even if you want to raise him, you can't steal the filial piety that the fifth elder brother gave to the queen mother.

The fifth elder brother is very good at picking, among all kinds of local raccoon cats, he chose this orange cat.

Among the cat pets in the future harem, this one will definitely have a place.

At this moment, the queen mother also saw Xiaosong and Xiaoyu holding something in their hands, and asked curiously, "What did you bring?"

Shu Shu just said one by one, lamb tripe that can be stewed in soup, stewed lamb that can be eaten cold or steamed, as well as sesame seed cakes and some vegetables.

The Empress Dowager smiled and said: "Yesterday, I was talking about gluttonous lamb tripe soup with my concubine, and now I have your filial piety, I am blessed..."

Shu Shu said with a smile: "Daughter-in-law is just an errand, it's nothing, our father and other masters went to Sibeile's house for dinner, the food was good, and we wanted to buy some, but Fifth Brother asked to buy more, saying It's because the sheep belly is soft and rotten, the emperor's grandmother eats it just right, or the fifth brother is filial..."

The Empress Dowager became more open-minded, patted Shu Shu's hand and said: "Everyone is filial, everyone is filial..."

The capital, Dongcheng, borders of Xiangbai Banner, Tong Guowei Mansion.

The imperial decree has been issued, and the plaque of the Duke's Mansion has also been removed.

Everyone in the house has become a commoner.

Tong Guowei stopped being a nobleman and was exempted from the ministers of the guards and the ministers of state affairs.

Those whose sons and grandchildren have jobs will be dismissed.

From the third round of the first lunar month to today, it is already the ninth day.

The members of the Tong family have been used to being calm since they were trembling.

I thought it was a false alarm, but today I waited for Ma Qi to deliver the decree.

A bolt from the blue, nothing more.

The hardest hit was Tong Guowei's third son, Longkodo, who was formerly the envoy of Luanyi of the second rank, and also the deputy capital of Mongolia in the Zhenglan Banner.

As the emperor's cousin and brother-in-law, his career has already been well planned.

In the future, it will definitely be the way of the Minister of Internal Affairs and the Minister of Internal Affairs who lead the guards.

"Ama, do you really return to Fengtian?"

Longkodo was a little anxious.

Tong Guowei's eyes were a little dazed.

Before delivering the decree, Ma Qi first talked about Suo'etu's questioning.

Suo'etu strangled two of Cheng Ding's sons to death, and threw himself to death.

It wasn't Ma Qi who talked too much, but Kangxi asked him to talk.

Everyone knows that Tong Guogang and his son have a bad temper, but few people know that Tong Guowei's temper is not very peaceful.

Although Kangxi was annoyed at him in his heart, he was also afraid that he would be stubborn at this time, resisting the order and disrespecting, so he ordered Ma Qi to do so.

Tong Guowei was really honest.

After hearing Longkodo's words, Tong Guowei raised his eyelids and said, "You want to resist the edict?"

Longkodo looked anxious: "What about the mother and son of the four sons?"

It turned out that he had an outer room, which was placed in the outer house by the seaside of Shicha, and he also raised an illegitimate child...
