Transmigrated into a Qing Dynasty concubine and asked the system to help me raise my children

Shen Jiang took a nap until half past eight. He slept very comfortably, but he felt uncomfortable when he heard Grape's report.

"Song Gege and Li Gege have been waiting for Fu Jin outside for more than an hour."

Shen Jiang frowned: "Didn't I tell them not to pay their respects every day?"

Don’t you understand what people say or what?

If this were to get out, wouldn't she, the Fourth Lady, be known for deliberately making trouble and mistreating her concubines?

She washed, changed her clothes and went out, and saw Li and Song sitting on chairs, no one spoke.

"Greetings to Madam Madam." Seeing Shen Jiang coming out, the two of them hurriedly stood up and saluted.

Shen Jiang now understands Concubine De a little bit. It is really tiring to talk to someone who can't understand what she is saying.

"Get up!" Shen Jiang said calmly, "I'll say it again, you don't have to greet each other every day."

Li didn't seem to sleep well last night, her eyes were a little swollen, and she said, "Serving Madam Fu is the duty of a servant."

Shen Jiang didn't want to hear these words, so he said, "You come here every day and disturb my sleep. How about this, from now on, you should greet me once every five days. Do you understand?"

Li and Song looked at each other and said they understood, but they actually had other thoughts in their minds.

Mrs. Song: Mrs. Fu-jin used to be a very strict rule-abiding person. Why do you suddenly want to sleep in? Is she pregnant?

Li: Mrs. Fu-jin is indeed different now. Now that she is favored by the emperor, she starts to control us.

Shen Jiang didn't care what they were thinking! She sent them away and it was time for breakfast.

She had just arrived yesterday and didn't know that breakfast was also a full meal, with all the ingredients that a full meal should have: staple food, main course, snacks and side dishes! So she only had porridge and snacks yesterday. Today, she asked Grape to go to the kitchen to see what breakfast was available, and only then did she realize how rich the content was.

Four staple foods: pork-stuffed wontons, fruit porridge, chicken soup with old rice, and glutinous rice porridge.

There are nine main dishes: fat chicken and tofu, steamed duck, bird's nest, ham and smoked duck shreds, three-fresh meatballs, deer tendon and braised pork, fried cabbage, etc.

Three kinds of snacks: bamboo-joint steamed buns, honey cakes, and butter bean flour.

Four side dishes: an enamel sunflower box side dish, a southern side dish, and two silver plate side dishes.

There is also a dessert: bird's nest stewed with rock sugar.

Shen Jiang became interested and imitated the nobles on TV, saying, "First, a bowl of bird's nest stewed with rock sugar to moisten your throat, and then a bowl of wontons. Do you have shrimp? There is a shrimp in each wonton. The soup base should be seafood soup, which is dried shrimp and seaweed. Then have some cloud-sliced ​​tofu, smoked duck shreds, and stir-fried cabbage. If you don't want porridge, you don't need snacks or side dishes."

Grape agreed and quickly brought the meal.

Shen Jiang ate the bird's nest with satisfaction, and ate wontons with the dishes. The wonton soup was very delicious, not only with dried shrimps and seaweed, but also with scallops and dried scallops!

It’s just that some of the main dishes are not really to her liking, she still prefers the simple and easy-to-eat farm side dishes.

This breakfast lasts until nearly ten o'clock, so there is no need to have a snack. Let's just wait until two o'clock in the afternoon for dinner!

Shen Jiang teased the system: "It's so boring, Tongzi, can you show me a magic trick?"

System: "Host, please respect yourself. I, little Tongzi, sell my body, not my art."

Shen Jiang: "...You tell a good joke."

But it was really boring. The Fourth Prince's books hadn't been delivered yet, so Shen Jiang couldn't read. The courtyard of the Prince's Residence was so small, and she couldn't do exercise in the courtyard. As for wandering around the Imperial Garden, that was even more impossible. Even the concubines in the harem rarely went out for a stroll. The wives of the princes and their wives were not allowed to leave the Prince's Residence except to pay respects.

Just hold on until you can leave the palace and build your own house, then you will have your own yard.

Out of boredom, Shen Jiang picked up needle and thread and started working.

She had a previous mission as an embroiderer, so her embroidery skills were very exquisite.

When Madam Kong came in and saw it, she said proudly, "Although Fu Jin doesn't do needlework on weekdays, once she picks up needlework, I dare say that no one in this prince's house can compare to her."

The original owner was very good at needlework. Yes, someone like her, who could calm down and read Buddhist scriptures, could definitely endure the loneliness of needlework.

Shen Jiang prepared to make a fan cover for the Fourth Prince, with a royal blue background and an image of two horses embroidered on it.

The fourth prince was born in the year of the horse, which is appropriate for the occasion.

When the Fourth Prince came back, the horse had only been embroidered halfway.

Shen Jiang put away her sewing basket and went out to greet the Fourth Prince.

When the Fourth Prince first stepped into the courtyard, he habitually glanced at Li's room, but he remembered that he had to give the book to his wife, so he still entered the main courtyard.

"Come, take a look at the book I brought you."

Shen Jiang smiled and leaned over to look, and saw the familiar "Journey to the West", "Water Margin" and "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", as well as "The Story of Yingying", "Three Words and Two Shots", etc. There was a travel note "Xu Xiake's Travel Notes" and other miscellaneous songs, a full box, enough to read for a long time.

"Thank you, sir. You are so kind. I thought it would take you two days to bring the book! I didn't expect it to be so soon. It shows that you really care about me. I am really grateful." Flattery never wears out. Shen Jiang did not hesitate to praise the Fourth Prince and flattered him to the utmost.

The Fourth Prince raised his lips slightly, his ears turned red, and he coughed lightly, saying, "Alright, that's enough."

After all, he is just an eighteen-year-old boy. He would be dizzy if he heard too much flattery.

Shen Jiang smiled and said, "What do you want to eat tonight? I had a bowl of wontons for breakfast today, and it was pretty good."

The Fourth Prince originally planned to go see Li after delivering the book, but looking at Shen Jiang's smiling face, he really couldn't say that. He thought, let's go see Li tomorrow! So he said, "You decide!"

Shen Jiang ordered a bowl of meat and shrimp wontons for the Fourth Prince according to her own breakfast meal, and ordered rice for herself. The side dishes included: salted duck, boiled fish jerky, scrambled eggs with cucumber, braised eggplant, spicy tofu, and stewed fish with shredded chicken.

It feels like a big country banquet mixed with farm-style stir-fry.

The Fourth Prince looked at the dishes on the dining table with an indescribable expression on his face.

Shen Jiang picked up the spoon, scooped a spoonful of spicy tofu and poured it on the rice, then started eating.

The Fourth Prince’s eyes became more… It was a good thing that Lady Fu Jin became more friendly, but he felt a little complicated that she became so friendly all of a sudden.

But seeing that she was enjoying the meal so much, the Fourth Prince finished a bowl of wontons and said, "Give me a bowl of rice too!"

He didn't order the spicy tofu rice like Shen Jiang did. He still ate it one mouthful of rice and one mouthful of vegetable at a time. However, the spicy tofu did have a kind of magic, a magic that made him want to eat more.

The Fourth Prince drank two bowls of rice and ate a lot of vegetables as well.

Su Peisheng's eyes almost popped out. Normally, the Fourth Prince doesn't like spicy food!

After the meal, Shen Jiang took out a stack of crispy candies like a magician, handed one to the Fourth Prince and said, "Have something sweet to relieve the spiciness."

Su Peisheng: Haha, the Fourth Prince doesn’t like sweet things at all.

The Fourth Prince took the candy and chewed it.

Su Peisheng slapped himself in the face in his mind.

I'm afraid the weather in this courtyard is about to change. From now on, I'd better stay away from Li Gege and stay closer to Fu Jin's courtyard.
