My father-in-law is Kangxi

Chapter 45

Following the voice, Nanny Zhou came in from the door with a grin on her face, leaning on a cane.

Nanny Liu was reprimanded, and her face was ugly, but she could clearly see who was coming, and she still got up from the stool.

Who told the Eight Banners to "respect the elderly" and "respect the elders", this old woman is not only old, but also senior.

"I was just kind enough to mention Fujin... Mammy is also from Baoyi's family, so you should know the relationship between Baoyi and master. If the master is lenient, the subordinates will be loyal; if the master is mean, the subordinates will not just obey..."

Grandma Liu is still plausible.

Nanny Zhou frowned and said: "Master Fujin, there are concubines and empress dowagers. The serious mother-in-law and grand-grandmother didn't speak, and it's not your turn to speak up as a 'nanny mother-in-law'! Or do you think you have nursed elder brother?" One, after serving for a few years, he asked Da to act as an elder, expecting Fujin to be obedient like a daughter-in-law? Isn't it a daydream?"

Nanny Zhou was serious in appearance, but she was even more eloquent when she spoke.

Grandma Liu couldn't hold back her smile.

If these words spread, it would be good to have her as a slave?

How could she dare to admit it, she had a grievance on her face, and she wiped her tears: "I am wronged, I am wronged... This old slave is afraid that Fujin has just arrived and doesn't know the rules in the palace, so I made a few long-winded words, and my honest words are harsh..." The last sentence, But she looked at Shu Shu and said.

Nanny Liu looked old, but in fact she was not very old, she just dressed old and wore a maroon robe every day.

But the selection of nipples in the palace has fixed standards.

Between the ages of fifteen and twenty, the wrapped woman who gave birth to the third child, the breast-feeding prince who gave birth to a daughter, and the breast-feeding queen who gave birth to a child.

In this way, Grandma Liu was about thirty-six or seven years old when she was older, and she wore a thick loach back gold bracelet on her wrist, and she was a decent woman when she straightened her back, but this crying woman looked Stiff, obviously not used to it.

Shu Shu lowered her eyes, didn't answer the words, just looked at her fingernails casually.

Before she got married, Xiao Yu dyed her nails with balsam, rouge.

A few days passed, new nails grew out below, and there were little crescents, which looked cute and cute.

Mammy Liu didn't expect Shu Shu to react like this, she didn't know whether to cry or make trouble, so her expression became a little stiff.

Nanny Zhou kept a straight face, with impatience on her face: "The rules in the palace?! The rules in the palace are disobedience to the master and beating to death! Whether it's a nurse or a nanny, it's an errand, not a seniority, and you're paid on a monthly basis. For money..."

Grandma Liu couldn't figure out Shu Shu's temper, she didn't dare to be presumptuous, she stopped crying stiffly, and stood more respectfully.

Only then did Shu Shu raise her head, still smiling: "Since Mammy is back, go and get the key to the box in front... The summer is long, and the master told me to look through the box to see the treasures and so on, to pass the time... "

When Mother Liu heard this, her face froze, she forced a smile and said, "This old slave is careless, this key is kept at home..."

Shu Shu raised her eyebrows: "Oh? You're at home? There's no spare key for this one, just one key for every lock?"

Nanny Liu apologized and said with a smile: "This... is something bestowed by the gods. It is precious, and it will not be good if you touch it... This old servant didn't think about Fujin wanting to see it, and the spare ones are at home..."

Shu Shu smiled: "Mammy really didn't expect a lot... Don't worry, Mammy will go to the house to find it... If you can't find it, what's the matter, it's just a waste of a few locks... Grandpa The dignified prince, elder brother, is not short of these few throws..."

Liu Mama's face turned gray, her body was bent, and she said with a smile: "I can find it, I can find it..."

When Nanny Liu went out in a hurry, Nanny Zhou changed her face and said with a bit of earnestness: "Fu Jin, although this old man is abominable, but after all he milked my elder brother, just pack up and obey, but It's not good to just kick it out..."

"Ok!"

Shu Shu nodded.

How could she not understand the truth that things go smoothly if they are slow?
It's only been a few days of work, and I kicked out a nun on the stove, and set a target for elder brother, even if elder brother Jiu took the initiative to take the blame, it would be inevitable to provoke gossip.

If there is more trouble, it will be annoying.

Thinking of the barley tea that Xiaotang had prepared, Shu Shu went back to the study and came out with a pen and paper.

Not wanting Sun Jin to spread the word, she took up a pen and wrote a few words, describing the reason why the barley tea nourishes the stomach, and asked Brother Jiu to watch and drink it.

For the rest of the time, Shu Shu continued to take out the tea schedule, and it was not difficult to convince Brother Jiu, but the difficulty was that Brother Jiu had no manpower.

Just like Gui Dan, it's really not good to do good things.

Osmanthus Dan is Jiu Ah Ge's Haha Bead...

Brother Jiu's haha ​​bead? !
The haha ​​beads selected by the fifteen elder brothers are eight people...

Shu Shu sensed something was wrong.

Why is no one available?

What about the seven?
Shu Shu didn't get the answer to this question until Brother Nine came back from school.

Brother Nine came back not too early or too late today, around right or left.

Because something went wrong last night, Shu Shu asked someone to prepare delicious pasta and porridge.

The two of them will eat later, Shu Shu is still worried that he is not feeling well, so she drags him out to digest food.

Shu Shu asked about Haha beads.

"In the early years, there were eight people. Later, one of them moved out because of illness and did not come in again; the other family questioned the crime, and the whole family returned to the lord as slaves...the remaining six, besides Guidan, there is also a cousin, who is also the grandfather's family. The people over there returned to Shengjing with their grandparents at the beginning of the year...the remaining four, one clan and one Jueluo, all went home to fill up the bodyguards; Shun Anyan of the family is not close to the master, and they all go home and wait for the family to fill in the vacancy of the flag..."

Brother Nine felt a little unhappy when he mentioned this.

Eight haha ​​beads, even if half of them are conditioned, they will not end up being unusable.

Shu Shu listened, quite surprised: "Shun Anyan? The eldest grandson of the second room of the Tong family?"

"Well, it's him... used to put on a show, like a little boy..."

Brother Jiu said, looking at Shu Shu with doubts: "What? You knew this Uncle Shun before?"

Shu Shu shook his head: "I just heard about it... Uncle Guo's eldest grandson, Empress Empress' nephew, I didn't expect him to be my master's companion..."

"It's just a snob. I'm afraid that we little elder brothers will look down on us, and even the fourth child will be ignored, but we know how to find opportunities to flatter the boss... Hmph, I can't flatter you..."

Brother Jiu was still angry when he mentioned this person.

But Shu Shu knew that this person had another identity, Princess Wen Xian's son-in-law.

The fifth princess of Kangxi, Princess Wen Xian, is the ninth daughter of the emperor, the daughter of the concubine De who was raised by the queen mother, and the younger sister of the fourth elder brother.

Shu Shu didn't say much. One must know that the entire Kangxi Dynasty, the Tong family had a detached status.

Brother Jiu thought of today's barley tea, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth: "Today's tea is good to drink, and the old ten also said that it is fragrant... I wrote the recipe later, and I found an opportunity to honor Khan Ama... More than Khan Ma, I guess the queen mother and empress will also like it..."

Shu Shu was not surprised by this result.

Who is the diet in the palace, meat is the main food, and pork is the main meat, so it's no wonder that it is not greasy.

"Actually, in addition to barley tea, there is also rice tea, which is also good for digestion... It's not suitable for the master, so I don't make people worry about it... The taste is more fragrant. After drinking a few teas, the rice is soaked and can be eaten. , is more suitable for the queen mother and empress than barley tea..."

Shu Shu said.

Living in the Qing Dynasty for more than ten years, she was the jewel in the palm of her parents, and she didn't have such a deep understanding of honor and inferiority.

In the past few days in the palace, I have been deeply impressed.

There are rules for dressing and eating, and there is really no way to exceed them.

If Brother Nine really honored the recipe of barley tea to Kangxi, it would be difficult to use it to honor the Empress Dowager and Concubine Yi, and it would be better to offer another kind.

Brother Jiu also became interested: "Then I'll try making some later, the food in the palace is monotonous, and the imperial tea room serves loose tea every day, but in addition to making milk tea, the taste of direct brewing is ordinary, and the empress doesn't like the bitter soup son……"

Shu Shu recalled the taboos in the palace that he had heard several times, and hesitated: "The empress dowager and the empress are here to give the prescription or the finished product..."

Brother Jiu was stopped by the question, and thought for a while: "There is nothing taboo about your empress. If you want to respect food, you can respect...the queen mother, why don't you find a chance to ask your empress? There are many dining rooms in the palace, but there are 'respect dishes'." The precedent of 'is only limited to the dining room of the empresses... Here in the prince's dining room, the sister-in-law always behaves according to the rules, and the princess entered the palace late, so there is no such precedent..."

While the two were talking, there was movement beside them.

"Brother..."

Nanny Liu came from the front yard with a crying voice.

"Why don't you rest for two more days?"

Brother Jiu greeted her and noticed her strangeness: "What's the matter? Is there something wrong at home?"

Nanny Liu cautiously glanced behind Brother Jiu, and flinched, "No... this old slave is fine..."

Brother Jiu turned his head and looked at Shu Shu.

Shu Shu had a slight smile on her face, this nanny is very interesting.

On her side, she was thinking that things would be smooth and smooth, but the other party couldn't wait any longer. Is this face-to-face "eye medicine"?
She didn't dodge or dodge, and looked at Brother Jiu.

Brother Jiu's expression also faded, he looked away, and said to Madam Liu: "Mama, take a rest earlier, if you feel uncomfortable, send someone to invite the imperial physician..."

"Old slave, don't worry about elder brother..."

Mother Liu rubbed her tears, choked up and said, "I heard that no one stays on duty at night in the upper room. What if Elder Brother is hungry and thirsty at night..."

Brother Jiu thought about the "hustle and bustle" between the two of them at night, how could he be happy to have someone listen to the room, so he quickly waved his hand: "With Fujin here, Mammy doesn't have to worry about this..."

Grandma Liu was stunned and looked at Shu Shu.

Shu Shu still didn't even give her a wink, she was standing by the fish tank in the yard looking down, looking at the few goldfish inside.

Nanny Liu smiled, turned around and went back to the front yard.

It wasn't until the two of them returned to the room that elder brother Jiu asked, "Why did you come here? The master is not here during the day, and there is another story at home?"

"My lord asked me to open the box in the front yard, and I asked my mother for the key... But she said she didn't bring it with me, and the spare one was at home, so what's the matter? It's not a big deal. Son... Even if it is lost, it is a waste of a few locks, and our family does not lack that money..."

Shu Shu didn't hide anything, and didn't add any embellishments, and directly talked about today's situation: "Mother is worried that I am not familiar with the rules in the palace, so she said a few more words about the housekeeping department's contact with relatives, and it is not easy to offend, remind me not to offend." Dealing with people lightly has ruined the master's benevolent behavior, so Mother Zhou listened to it and said a few words, probably because she was thinking too much..."
