[Qing Chuan] Have a meal in the harem

"Ma'am, the woolen blanket, cheese, milk tea powder, beef jerky, and all kinds of leather you want are here."

Aunt Lu sat next to Concubine Wen with a reserved face, pointing at the big and small bags with a subtle smile.

Yimin once again sighed, Aunt Lu is really a god, and I don't know where her ability to make connections comes from, and I have never seen anything that she can't get back.

She hurriedly poured a cup of tea for the other party with her own hands, and said: "Grandma has worked hard, come and taste the crispy cheese sent by Wuyungege, this is specially reserved for my aunt."

After getting along for several years, Yimin also gradually got a feel for this aunt's temperament.

Although she is rich, she gets it in a proper way. She is arrogant by nature, and she has a good face. I want her to serve you wholeheartedly. Money is not enough, you have to give her face and make her feel valued.

To put it bluntly, I just need to keep her in mind, praise her more, remember her more, and don't forget to give her money.

To others, Aunt Lu might have the meaning of being a bit of a forceful person. After all, the idea of ​​a loyal servant is generally respected now. As a subordinate, one must do things with all one's heart and cannot disobey the master.

Aunt Lu seemed rebellious and out of place.

But I am most satisfied with Yimin, how interesting it is, every time I am with Aunt Lu or bicker or choke each other, it adds a lot of fun to life.

Don't just say a few good words, it's a matter of lip service, besides, caring for subordinates is a compulsory course for every boss, and paying wages and bonuses is the most basic moral issue.

Just like now.

Yimin smiled and said, "My aunt is the best, otherwise I wouldn't know where to buy it. It's rare to come to Mongolia, and I always want to bring something back as a souvenir."

Then he asked with concern: "Auntie has enough money in her hand? You must have spent a lot of money to buy these many things."

Aunt Lu took two mouthfuls of crispy cheese, holding the cup of tea in both hands, her heart was warm, and her face was very gentle, she said cheerfully: "It is enough, the empress gave 200 taels of silver bills, and there are still some leftovers. Woolen cloth!"

She finished her tea in two or three sips, stood up neatly, rummaged through the bundles, found a black rectangular box, and presented it to Yimin like a treasure.

Yimin opened it curiously, and it turned out to be a Mongolian knife with a horn handle and a ruby ​​inlaid on the top, which is very beautiful.

"The servant girl liked it the last time she saw her, so she decided to find someone to build one."

Aunt Lu is very considerate, "I haven't played before, the empress can play with it, or hang it on the wall for decoration after returning to the palace."

As expected, Yimin liked it very much. She held it in her hands and looked back and forth for a long time, then nodded repeatedly, "Auntie, don't worry, Qingmei, quickly wrap a high-quality envelope for Aunt Lu, and then put the leftover cheese back for Aunt Lu. Take two plates of fruit..."

Aunt Lu's smile became more and more sincere, and she was as blunt as ever, "Thank you, ma'am."

Both of them are very happy, everyone is happy.

……

Although this trip did not go deep into Mongolia, it also had a glimpse of the grassland scenery for the first time, and it was fun.

It was already mid-August when we returned, and the weather changed a lot. Yimin had already started to add clothes. She rarely got out of the carriage, and most of the time she nestled on her carriage, teasing Zhaocai, teaching Uxiha how to speak, Read the scriptures and drink some salty milk tea.

Time passed quickly.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Tong is here." Qing Mei came in to report.

As soon as the carriage stopped, Yimin felt it, and it was not unusual to hear this, the journey was boring, and everyone often visited each other.

"Come in, please."

Carrying Wu Xiha on the wool carpet, stuffing a doll for her to play with, and leaving Zhaocai to her, Yimin picked up the cup and poured a cup of milk tea for Concubine Tong.

As soon as it was poured, Concubine Tong walked in, sat next to her, and took the cup naturally.

Yimin smiled and said, "How do you know it's for you? What if I want to drink it myself?"

Gazing at her, Concubine Tong pointed to the half-drinked cup in front of her, and said speechlessly, "Your cup is right there. Do you still need two cups?"

"That's not necessarily true. This is my own carriage. I like to drink as many drinks as I like."

Concubine Tong ignored her, lowered her head and took a sip, raised her eyebrows and said, "It's not bad, where did you find someone to buy it?"

Pushing the dim sum in front of her, Yimin said, "It's the milk tea powder specially made by Aunt Lu, and there are quite a few more. If you like it, you can pack some and take it home later."

Concubine Tong nodded slightly, she turned her head to look at Wu Xiha, the little girl was having fun playing alone, and laughed from time to time.

"I always see you hugging Si Gege, why? Isn't San Gege unpleasant?" Concubine Tong asked very casually.

Yi Min also looked at Wu Xiha, and she shook her head slightly, "Children are all the same, there is nothing to like or not, it's just that if you see more, you will inevitably care more."

Concubine Tong gloated, "Your Majesty Zhang is not as easy to get along with as you think, is it?"

Concubine Tong thought it was funny when she thought that Concubine Wen had moved nobleman Zhang to Yongshou Palace and was careful about everything, but now she was lukewarm.

Glancing at her, "It's not the fault of yours. I heard that when the first Da Gege was still there, you thought about adopting him. You gave up because of your position, but you put a thorn in Zhang Guiren's heart." !"

Concubine Tong didn't care, "But the fruit of suffering is not me, but you."

She revealed: "Zhang Guiren is a person who is very easy to get into the wrong place, especially after the death of Xian Dage, he was gloomy all day long. Sometimes when I saw her, my eyes were a little panicked. It is thanks to you for getting her away, otherwise I'm about to make a move."

This is something Yimin didn't know, she was not familiar with Zhang Guiren before, but she still said: "The pain of bereavement is so deep, it's understandable, besides, Zhang Guiren just protects San Gege too much, and doesn't care about it." Do something bad."

As women, why bother to be too harsh.

Concubine Tong looked at her very strangely. Every time she talked with Concubine Wen, she would be surprised by her indifference and tolerance.

She thought again in her heart: It really doesn't look like she has stayed in the palace for so many years.

Just thinking like this, Yi Min suddenly frowned, stood up and walked straight towards Wu Xiha.

Concubine Tong was taken aback.

I saw Yimin grabbed Wu Xiha's little hand, pulled out two cat hairs from her palm, and said seriously to Wu Xiha's helpless little face: "You can't use such a big force, you know?"

Wu Xiha's strength is getting stronger and stronger, but her hands are neither light nor heavy, even Yimin has two bruises on her body, not to mention the lucky cat fur.

She patiently said to her: "You can't do this, you have to be gentler. You have been in pain for a long time since you fell last time, and it will also hurt to make money. We Wuxiha are good children, and we can't bully kittens..."

She kept repeating, until she felt that Wu Xiha understood, she let go of Wu Xiha's little hand, and guided her to gently touch the lucky hair.

"Yes, that's it, just be gentle."

After she finished teaching the child and returned to her seat, Concubine Tong said, "What does a one-year-old child know? If you say it today, she will forget it tomorrow."

Yimin disagreed and said: "Then just continue teaching tomorrow. No one knows everything from birth, and it's not something an adult taught them little by little."

Concubine Tong shut up and stopped talking.

It's just that I suddenly feel that Concubine Wen's life like this is not bad, and I suddenly feel that raising a child is... not bad.

……

It was already September when I returned to the capital.

He distributed the cheese and beef jerky brought back to Yulan and other left-behind personnel, and sent some blankets and milk tea powder to Su Ying who was unable to travel.

Yimin soaked in a hot bath, ordered a table of delicious dishes and ate them.

Mongolia is pretty good, but the variety of food is a bit limited, and there must be barbecue every time. No matter how delicious it is, I get tired of eating it. Yimin doesn't want to touch barbecue again within a month.

When Kangxi was in a good mood, Yimin took the time to recruit his sister-in-law Xilinjueluo into the palace.

After being in the palace for more than four years, she only met her sister-in-law four times, once as a concubine, and three times during the Chinese New Year. During the Chinese New Year, a concubine can have a chance to see her family, as long as she reports to the middle palace in advance.

It's different now that the imperial concubine rank is higher than the concubine rank, there is an opportunity to summon family members once a month, although sensible people don't know how to use it every month, but there are always four or five times a year.

Unavoidable to be bumped, Yimin asked someone to prepare a sedan chair to go to the gate of the palace early in the morning, and asked Qingmei to follow all the way, while she waited at the gate of Yongshou Palace.

Seeing the sedan chair approaching from a distance, Yimin's face showed joy.

As soon as Xilinjueluo got out of the sedan chair, she grabbed her hand, "Sister-in-law, don't salute first, let's talk about it when we enter the house."

That's what they said, but when they really entered the house, no one mentioned the matter of saluting.

"How is the family, sister-in-law, are you okay these days?"

"Min'er, how is your previous injury?"

The two aunts and sisters-in-law asked at the same time, with the same eagerness in their tone.The two froze for a moment, and their faces softened at the same time.

It was Yimin who answered first: "It was just some skin trauma, it has healed up long ago, and there is no scar left."

Xilin Jueluo didn't believe it: "Don't lie to me, I've heard from your brother that the flying knife used by the assassin was poisoned. The situation was so dangerous that even the imperial doctor was dispatched."

Inwardly scolding Big Brother Dong for scaring people, Yi Min explained patiently: "The imperial doctor is just in case, the poison is not difficult to cure, besides, am I not standing in front of my sister-in-law right now? Don't worry, sister-in-law."

"How is this the same? You have been afraid of pain since you were a child, and you would cry for a long time when you pricked an embroidery needle. It is a knife, and it hurts so much!" Xilin Jueluo felt very distressed.

"You are safe and sound now, but I can't help but be afraid in my heart. I just think that it's almost there. What if the poison sees blood and seals the throat, and the flying knife hits the vital point... Then my Min'er can't help it!" what to do?"

Xilin Jueluo has cried several times because of this matter, but now thinking about it, she still can't help but get red eyes.

Those who love you will never ignore your past pain because of the stability of this world.

Yimin felt a little sour in her heart, sister-in-law is not a weak character, no matter how many burdens are placed on her body, it will only make her more determined. She has not seen her cry a few times in all these years, but this time she shed a tear for her. enough.

She hugged her sister-in-law and comforted her in a soft voice, "It didn't hurt very much. I fainted quickly at that time. Later, the imperial doctor prescribed pain-relieving prescriptions and tranquilizers. The poison was detoxified quickly, and the wound was not too big. It will be fine in two days."

"Is that ever a good way to make up for it?"

"Qing Mei and the others stewed the tonic for a month, and I got angry with it."

Yimin deliberately adjusted the atmosphere, Xilinjueluo didn't want to spoil her interest, so he quickly adjusted his mood and talked with her about family affairs.

"Your brother asked me to tell you: don't worry about him, and don't need to plead for him. His future will be earned by himself. You just need to live a good life in the palace. You have him at home."

Yimin couldn't help laughing and rolled her eyes, "This is what the elder brother can say."

Xilinjueluo also looked at her and smiled, as for what her father-in-law told her when she was about to leave the house, she pretended she had never heard of it, and she didn't want it to fall into Amin's ears.

If it depends on her own sister in the deep palace to get up, then she has misjudged Dong Haoshan.

Xilinjueluo's family is not an ordinary boudoir woman. The aunt with a common surname in Manchuria has a high status. She nodded and agreed to this marriage after inquiring about it herself. What she valued was Dong Haoshan's integrity.

"Your eldest brother has been fond of martial arts since he was a child. Although the original position of the head of the House of Internal Affairs was decent, he was not what he wanted. Although he has been dismissed from his post at home, he has never been depressed, and he is eager to find a military position. Good for the court."

Yi Min agreed, "The emperor's determination to put down the San Francisco is extremely firm. There are frequent battles on the front line. Our family started with military exploits. Most of the forces are in the army. My eldest brother is also proficient in the art of war, so I don't worry about not having the opportunity to make meritorious service."

Xilinjueluo nodded, and said again: "Third brother also let me tell you: he will make progress, earn glory for the family, and earn confidence for you in the palace. You just need to do well in the palace, take care of yourself." Be yourself."

The three brothers of the Dong family are all very energetic people, and they are still young, with a sense of pride in their hearts and a bright future in their eyes.

It's not like the senility and twilight of the parents.

The third elder brother Dong Dianbang is only five years older than Yimin, and has been closest to her since she was a child. Hearing these words of protection, Yimin felt very warm in her heart. , just say that I will definitely take care of myself so that the family need not worry.”

He asked again: "Yanling has also reached the age when it's time to talk about marriage, but can you find a marriage?"

Yanling is the eldest son of Brother Dong and the Xilin Jueluo family, and the first male grandson of the third generation of the Dong family.

As soon as this was mentioned, Xilinjueluo's eyes were full of smiles, "I've found it, Yanling himself likes it. I met him once on a horse race in Zhuangzi outside Beijing, and when I came back, I was eager to come to propose marriage."

"Whose girl is it?"

"The direct daughter of the Guerjia family, the younger sister of the third-class Earl Shi Wenbing, I asked someone to find out that she is proficient in poetry, calligraphy, riding and shooting. Although she is a young girl in the family, she is not arrogant and has a tough personality of."

The eldest son and daughter-in-law have to support the family, and they have a heavy burden on them. If this princess is weak, even if his son likes it, Xilin Jueluo will not agree.

Shi Wenbing's younger sister?

Yimin was a little surprised, just saying this name is not familiar, but if one more person is mentioned, it will be clear - the first princess of the Qing Dynasty was born in the Guerjia family, and her father was Shi Wenbing!

The upper-class circle in the capital is so big, there are many twists and turns, anyone can get close, your uncle is his uncle, his aunt is your aunt...these messy relationships have a lot to do with it.

"This is a good thing! Congratulations to brother and sister-in-law, the wedding date has been set? I will also give Yanling a congratulatory gift later."

Being able to marry a wife she likes, Yimin is very happy for her nephew. Yanling, the eldest nephew, is only four years younger than her. He is the eldest son of his sister-in-law Xilin Jueluo's first year in the family. She and Yimin grew up together. Large and very intimate.

"It's decided, it will be in April next year, which happens to be spring, and it's the most suitable for a wedding."

Yimin nodded again and again, then smiled slyly again: "This Guerjiagege must be a beauty, right?"

Mu Shaoai is a young man who knows how to be attractive, so the one who can make her nephew fall in love at first sight is definitely not an ordinary girl.

Xilinjueluo nodded with a smile, and then talked softly to her: "The dowry is all ready, she is a good girl, our family can't treat you badly, they all come according to the best regulations, and most of them are purchased by Yanling himself. of."

Yimin nodded, "It should be so. The girl who was raised by the Guerjia family with gold and jade, did not marry Yanling of our family to suffer grievances. The dignity that should be given must be given enough."

He also pointedly reminded: "After they get married, they will live their own lives as a young couple, so sister-in-law should not interfere too much."

Although the elder sister-in-law is straightforward, there are not a few smart women who get dizzy when they meet their children. Yimin is very reluctant to see the elder sister-in-law, so she has a rift with her son and daughter-in-law, so she made a special point.

Patting her hand lightly, Xilinjueluo sighed and said, "When the child grows up, he will have his own small family. Parents can't manage it. Besides, I have raised you, and I have raised a daughter."

"Comparing my heart to my heart, if my daughter meets a difficult mother-in-law, I don't know how much distress and embarrassment it will be. I don't want to do such a thing!"

Yi Min couldn't help comforting him: "Yanling is a filial person, not a bastard who forgets his mother after marrying a wife, and will definitely be filial and considerate to you with Guerjiagege in the future."

"Even if he doesn't do well in the future, and my sister-in-law goes up and beats him up, I think he won't dare to fight back, and I have to say: Er Niang taught me a lesson."

Xilinjue Luoshi made her smile, "Yes."

Seeing that it was almost time to leave the palace, Xilinjueluo took out a purse and handed it to Yimin, saying: "I have been looking for the Zhuangzi you asked me to buy last time. According to what you said, I bought two bags near Xiaotangshan. The big one is 600 mu, and the smaller one is more than [-] mu, and the title deeds are all here.”

The hot spring Zhuangzi in Xiaotangshan is a dungeon that time-traveling women must brush. Since Yimin remembers it, there is no reason to let it go.

She took the title deed with both hands and put it away properly.

When the hot spring is dug out, it will be white money!

Xilin Jueluo was puzzled and said: "That is a wasteland, and the land price is also cheap, why did you just fall in love with it?"

Naturally, Yi Min couldn't tell the truth, so she said: "I used to vaguely hear people say that Feng Shui is good there, so I should spend money for peace of mind. If my sister-in-law can trust me, I might as well buy some Zhuangzi, it won't cost me much anyway."

Xilin Jueluo didn't quite believe it, but he still said: "Then I'll buy the land next to your Zhuangzi when I go back, and it will be easy to take care of even one piece."

Yimin was happy.

After saying a few more words, the maid outside came in to remind her that the hour was approaching.

Xilin Jueluo sighed, took two wooden boxes from the hand of the maid beside him, and said, "You have two little princesses in your palace, and I have nothing to give away, so I asked the best craftsman in the capital to make two sets of gold collars." , send it over for me."

She was secretly worried about Yimin's lack of pregnancy for a long time, but since she became a concubine, she saw that Yimin's status was becoming more and more stable, so she let go of her hanging heart.

Having children may not necessarily lead to a good life, and not having children may not necessarily lead to a bad life, it all depends on each person.

For now, the other party is undoubtedly living a very good life, that's enough, asking too much will easily ruin the blessing.

In this way, Xilin Jueluo was very concerned about the two princesses raised in Yongshou Palace. After all, if the younger sister was unable to bear children, it would not be lonely in this palace to have these two princesses under her knees.

"Then I will thank sister-in-law on behalf of Uxiha and Tai Fenzhu."

Yimin accepted it with a smile, and said, "I brought back some blankets, milk tea, and dried meat cheese from Mongolia earlier. I picked some that I thought were good, and some clothing supplements. My sister-in-law will take them home."

She also personally sent Xilin Jueluo to the gate of Yongshou Palace, watching the sedan chair go away, Yi Min reluctantly returned to the house.

She first handed over the land deed to Qingmei, and asked her to find a box with a lock and put it in her room, then opened the two boxes and took a look.

Two collars of similar style, exquisite and light, with almost no weight in hand, most suitable for children to wear, without pressing down on the neck.It looks like it was made by a very experienced master craftsman.

"Give it to Zhang Guiren and Zhao Jia Chang Zai."

……

Outside the palace, the Dong family.

"I looked at it today, the empress looks very good, the Yongshou Palace is also in order, the utensils and clothing are all high-quality, I think it is going well."

As soon as Xilin Jueluo returned home, she dragged her husband to talk.

Dong Haoshan put down the book of war in his hand, and said with a smile: "Didn't I tell you early in the morning that the empress did a great job in saving him and conferred the title of concubine, the emperor will definitely not treat you badly."

Sitting and laughing for a long time, Xilinjueluo finally said seriously: "Today my father called me over, saying that he wanted my mother to seek an official position with the emperor for you. I thought it was not good, so I didn't tell my mother."

Dong Haoshan immediately sat up straight, he frowned and said: "What is father doing? My future will naturally be earned by myself, and the empress only got the concubine after suffering this. What if I offend the emperor because of this?"

"You're right. You can't tell your mother about this. There's no reason for a brother not to win glory for his sister, but to be a drag!"

He was both angry and a little ashamed, and really felt that his father's move had hurt the family's relationship too much.If my sister really heard it, she would definitely be sad.

Xilinjueluo looked at her husband with the same clear eyes as when he proposed to marry him, and she was very relieved. She comforted her and said: "Father is getting old, so it is inevitable that he will be a little left-handed, but he is also for your own good, and I hope you go on your way." smoother."

Although the son said nothing about his father's faults, Dong Haoshan couldn't hide his disapproval on his face.

"If you really rely on your empress to recover, let alone others, even I look down on myself!"

Xilinjue Luoshi loved his appearance so much, wrapped his arms around his shoulders, and let himself snuggle into his arms.

"I trust my husband. How can a momentary disappointment crush you? You will be able to fulfill your lifelong ambitions and stand upright again."

Holding his beloved wife in his arms, Dong Haoshan also eased his complexion, and the originally turbulent emotions calmed down.

"Hao Shan will live up to Madam's trust today."

The author has something to say: Ahhh, today I experienced what is called the speed of life and death.

Hurry up and finally send it out at ten o'clock.
