The Story of Dafujin Parenting in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 101
When it comes to eating, the palace people who check their belongings have something to say,
Why, there has never been a nobleman who brought a bag of rice back to the palace from outside the palace. Da Fujin did it first.

It is not uncommon for the nobles in the palace to bring meat products from outside the palace. Many people bring them, and other dry goods are also quite normal.

That time when they saw the eunuch of Dafujin bring a bag of rice, they were stunned. Could it be that the dining room is not given to Dafujin rice, which is obviously impossible.

Nanny Shi gave some money, saying that it was for Da Gege born to Da Fujin, and used the money to make them shut up.

Since then, every year when new rice is on the market, Da Fujin will always bring some into the palace.

In fact, this is easy to understand, why, because the imperial prince Fujin is Chen Jing rice, these are all taxed, usually Chen Jing rice, only the Queen's Fu Jin is the new Japonica rice.

In ancient times, the transportation conditions were poor, and most areas were harvested in October. After the rice tax was collected at the grassroots level, it had to go up one level, the village, to the county, to the government, etc., just like this, there was still transportation After arriving in the capital, the Ministry of Households still needs to sort out the storage and so on. This is a very long process. Basically, it would be good to be able to sort out the storage before the Chinese New Year.

Doesn't it become Chen Jingmi when it is handed out?
There are only a very small number of people in the south who harvest twice a year and harvest in June. It will not be until September to eat this new japonica rice, and the output is very small. Those who enjoy this share in the palace are the queen mother, emperor, empress and princes and daughters. .

Concubine Hui, as the concubine in power, can naturally get new japonica rice, but He Zhuo thinks it is too troublesome, so he just eats some new rice, and after doing so many things, he brings it into the palace by himself.

Then, in the eyes of those few palace people, there was a stingy impression, but they dared not speak nonsense.

Except for the benefits He Zhuo gave to the dining room this time, it seems that He Zhuo basically didn't give much money.The dining room didn't dare to be negligent, the concubine Hui Concubine Erniang is the concubine in power, her husband is the eldest son of the emperor, and she gave birth to the eldest granddaughter and grandson of the emperor.

Although the dining room is not too flattering, it will definitely not be embarrassing, everything is quite satisfactory.

The craftsmanship in the imperial dining room is top-notch, and He Zhuo thinks there is nothing wrong with it. In winter, there is a small vegetable patch, which is enough for Yinti to eat, and Little Treasure, and He Zhuo, occasionally eat some, which is enough.

This is how people are. If you keep giving benefits and suddenly stop giving them, you will feel uncomfortable and feel that you are not good or bad.

The so-called Sheng Mien fights Mi Qiu!

If you have been indifferent all the time, and you suddenly give benefits, you will feel good about you everywhere, just one week, and the impression that Da Fujin is stingy in the dining room is completely reversed.

In fact, it's not because Da Fujin didn't give the rewards and they felt stingy, but after Da Fujin came, the elder brother didn't give the rewards anymore. Da Fujin took care of everything, but they got used to it after a long time.

Anyway, there are still a lot of elder brothers below, and the money can't be broken.

After marrying Zhuocheng, I found that the biggest expense was gift giving. Princes and girls of the same generation had to give gifts on their birthdays, sisters from outside the palace had to add makeup to get married, and elders had to give gifts on their birthdays. Even close in-laws could not be left behind. The biggest expense was the emperor every year, Empress Dowager's birthday, and Concubine Hui's birthday.

That's all, it can't be finished without a few thousand taels of silver a year.

He Zhuo looked through the account books. Before getting married, the uncle was still in the ranks of the younger brothers. Although the gift-giving accounted for a large proportion, it was okay.
