Chapter 16

After Aunt Bai left, Zhang Anchu took a look at the plan he had written, and it was almost re-planned.

Then she lay down on the bed, and the nurse Anshi came in to have a look, and seeing that she was already lying down, she left in peace.

In fact, no matter what, at this time, Zhang Anchu will lie down and sleep on time, so he should be relieved, but he just feels relieved after a glance.

"Nurse." Zhang Anchu called to stop her, not letting her leave.

"What's the matter? Miss San." The nanny hurried to the side of the bed and asked.

"I have something to ask my nanny."

Since Aunt Bai said those words, she didn't know why, she was a little depressed.

"Third Miss, if you have anything to say, just ask." The nanny smiled kindly, and after so many years, there were several wrinkles on her face.

"Nurse, what do you think of Mrs. Hou's personality?" Zhang Anchu was under the quilt, with only one head exposed, and a pair of bright eyes.

"Why does the third lady ask this? The servant girl is a slave, and she signed a contract of sale. How can she say that the master is wrong." The nanny said that she wanted Xin Zhang Anchu to understand that Mrs. Hou is not what outsiders see that's good.

Not bad, but definitely not a good guy either.

When she was invited here, besides grandma Zhang Anchu, there was one more thing that she had to report to Mrs. Hou.

Back then Zhang Anchu shared the yard with Aunt Bai, which also meant to monitor Aunt Bai.

Madam Hou's control over the backyard can be said to be comprehensive.

Over the years, it has been better, but I just asked about Zhang Anchu's dance learning and food, and didn't ask much about the others.

It is estimated that there is also a reason why Aunt Bai and Zhang Anchu are not in the same yard.

Zhang Anchu fell into silence, she could hear the meaning of the nanny's words, but she still didn't understand the specifics.

"Miss San, no matter what, you have to eat more every day. Although you are learning to dance and you want to keep your figure slim, it will be bad for your health after a long time. There is a saying in the nurse's hometown that if a person is too thin, his body will lose weight." Xu, it is not easy to keep a child."

Thinking of Zhang Anchu's appetite, the nanny couldn't help persuading him again.

In the past, Mrs. Hou asked Zhang Anchu how much food she used. Once she used too much, Mrs. Hou told her that if she eats too much, she will not feel light when learning to dance.

She always felt that Mrs. Hou always asked about food, and said such a sentence on purpose, with ulterior motives. When she thought of what the older generation in her hometown said, she thought about her children, and she felt a little worried.

That's why I want Zhang Anchu to eat more, so as to save myself from being tricked by Mrs. Hou.

Zhang Anchu nodded, not rejecting the nanny's kindness, but Shen Jiaoxi always supervised the body, and if he was too full and his stomach was bloated, he would give a lecture.

In order for Shen Jiaoxi to teach himself less, he had no choice but to eat less and try to keep his stomach as flat as possible.

If you eat less, you will still eat less, but she also listened to what the nanny said.

If things go on like this for a long time, if you get pregnant in the future, but you can't keep the child, it will be a great tragedy.

"Nurse, do you know how to eat less and keep your body from getting weak?" Zhang Anchu asked.

The nanny frowned, thinking about it carefully, she has not been idle all these years, she has learned a few words, read a few medical books, and remembered that the book said that goat's milk is sweet, warm in nature, enters the stomach, heart, and kidney meridian, It has the functions of nourishing yin and nourishing the stomach, nourishing the kidneys, moistening the intestines and laxative, and detoxifying.

This may be the best way.

"It must be goat's milk. Drink more goat's milk, and your body will naturally improve." The nanny replied.

"Nurse, from now on, you can use my monthly bills to buy some goat milk. If I drink more, it shouldn't have any effect on the offspring." Zhang Anchu said, no matter what, the offspring is a big deal.

If one enters the royal family in the future, heirs are very important.

There is also a rule in the harem that only those who have heirs can be promoted or have made great contributions.

It is very important to be promoted. Zhang Anchu doesn't want to be unknown, and the rank is at least above the concubine.

Only those who are above the rank of concubine will not be buried.

Yes, that's right, the royal family has the custom of burial, regardless of whether they have children or not, as long as they are low-ranking concubines, they must be buried, but they must also obtain the consent of the concubine's father's family.

It's a pity that only a few people would disagree, because if a low-ranking concubine is buried, her family members can be promoted and get rich, which is regarded as compensation.

It is very difficult to be promoted. Some people spend their whole lives as petty officials. How many people would not want to be promoted if they had the chance?

Even if they are not buried, they will still go to guard the tomb anyway. Many people think that it is better to trade their daughters for a chance of promotion.

Another possibility is to designate some high-ranking concubines to be buried. There was a case in the previous dynasty.

The imperial concubine Gongxian of the previous dynasty was said to be a talented woman who was good at strategy and had a son who was also extremely intelligent. However, the emperor was old and wanted to make the prince born to the imperial concubine Gongxian the crown prince and become the next emperor. It's a pity that the prince was young, and worried that the imperial concubine would monopolize power after his death, so he ordered the concubine Gongxian to be buried.

Unofficial history said that the imperial concubine Gongxian was still young, and the old emperor was afraid that after his death, the imperial concubine would not be able to bear the loneliness, so he was buried.

This is just an example, no matter what, Zhang Anchu felt that he could not be buried under any circumstances.

When that time really came, she believed that the Hou Mansion would not fish her out.

The Hou of Beiping would rather die one of his daughters in exchange for promotion and fortune.

In order to prevent future tragedies, the foundation must be laid now.

"Miss San, don't worry, the nanny will go to the street tomorrow to see if she can receive goat milk. If not, the nanny will go to raise a sheep." The nanny felt relieved that Zhang Anchu listened to her words, and heard that she was willing to drink some goat milk. Naturally, he patted his chest to assure.

"It's too late, Miss San should go to bed early, and the nanny will go out."

Zhang Anchu nodded, at this time his eyelids began to open a little bit, and when the time came, he felt sleepy and couldn't stop him.

On the second day, Zhang Anchu acted according to the plan, and first greeted Mrs. Hou.

It was still the same as before, Zhang Anchu was the first to come among the children of the Hou residence, and after going in to greet Mrs. Hou, he sat down beside Aunt Bai.

Not long after, the eldest son's wife also came with their infant daughter.

Speaking of which, Zhang Anchu always wanted to thank his elder brother for his teachings over the years, and thought of making something for his elder brother.

Seeing his sister-in-law coming over with her daughter in his arms, he had an idea in his mind.

After a while, Zhang Anxian and Zhang Anyi also arrived.

If it was in the past, Zhang Anyi would definitely sit next to Madam Hou, but now that Zhang Anxian is back, the seat next to Madam Hou is hers.
