[Qing wear + Red Mansions] Guide to the Prince's Pampering Wife

When it comes to making money, Liuli can make money not only by making windows, mirrors are yyds!

Now there are glazed mirrors, but due to technical reasons, the mirrors are not big, only the size of a palm.There is no such large-scale full-length mirror as in later generations.And the price is extremely high, and non-powerful and rich people are not allowed to use it.So it's still in short supply.

But in fact, with colored glaze, it is much easier to make colored glaze mirrors. The main reason is the reflective layer on the back. Yin Zuo remembers in a daze whether it is made of silver or mercury?

He has no research on this, but he has great trust in the ingenuity of the craftsmen of the Qing Dynasty. As long as they have a general direction, they will be able to figure it out.

Yinzuo told the prince this too, he just said what he thought, he didn't care what the prince and Kangxi thought or did, anyway, these political figures were not the same species as him, so he didn't care.

The prince didn't say anything at that time, but within a few days Qianqing Palace began to change the glazed windows, and Yuqing Palace followed closely behind.

The third elder brother sighed: "I want to change too."

He sat in Yin Zuo's study, looking at the scenery outside with envy: he really loved the feeling that he could see the outside of the house at a glance.

But the production of colored glaze is only so much. It is appointed that Kangxi and the crown prince must be followed closely. The elder brother is the eldest brother, so he must be in front of him. I don't know how long it will take.

Yinzuo: Is that why you stay with me every day and don't leave?

The third elder brother is still very confident, he came here for a reason: such a rare event in Liuli Chuang, of course it should be published in the newspaper!It is natural to write an article to be published in a newspaper. In order to write accurately, shouldn't he come to experience it?Yinzuo still wants to do the Liulichuang business, isn't he also advertising for him?

Yinzuo: "..."

The third elder brother took out a pen and paper to write.Oh, the paper and pen are also made of Yinzuo.

He writes very slowly, with careful attention to every word and sentence, more attentively than writing poetry, and stops to look up information from time to time, and it takes a quarter of an hour to check. During the period, he leans on the soft pillow and drinks tea, occasionally glances outside, and then sighs: "What a fairy day."

Yin Zuo: "..." I really want to drive people away!

The third elder brother has no consciousness of being disgusted at all. Of course, even if he is aware of it, he will not care. Brother is very miserable in comparison.

The third elder brother took a sip of tea leisurely and said, "If you don't know how to lead a team, you can only work until you die."

Yinzuo: "..."

Yin Zuo was so angry that he threw the document down and broke down, "Then you find someone to replace me! If someone can guide me in the direction of the experiment, teach western medicine to the college, or translate medical books, I thank him and you too!"

"..." The third elder brother shrank his neck and moved his butt uncomfortably, "You, why are you angry, didn't I just say it casually? It's okay, I won't talk, you should be busy."

Yinzuo sat down angrily, and heard the third elder brother muttering in a low voice while covering his chest: "I was scared to death."

Yinzuo: "..."

It was rare for the third elder brother to write seriously for a while, and after a while he couldn't help but peek at Yinzuo.

Yinzuo: "...what's the matter?"

The third elder brother sighed: "My ability is limited, and I can never write a good one about Liuli Chuang."

Yinzuo said "Oh": "Then you can't find me, I'm not as talented as you."

Brother San coughed lightly: "If the real scene is used in the painting, it will definitely make people feel the same way."

Yinzuo understood what he meant.

Since it is necessary to make people empathize, it is natural to focus on realism.Traditional ink painting is bound to fail, and the best thing is sketching.But now there are only a few Liao Liao who can sketch, and Yin Zuo obviously has no time, the best is Xiaoxiang Layman.

Boy, is this the so-called ulterior motives in the bar?

The third elder brother looked at Yinzuo expectantly. He had seen many comic strips by Lay Xiaoxiang, but he hadn't seen this kind of painting before, so it must be different.

Yin Zuo smiled lightly: "You are right."

The third elder brother followed with a smile: "Then..."

Yin Zuo: "Then I'll talk to Ms. Sloanton."

"..." Brother San, "... Sloanton?"

"Yeah," Yin Zuo said strangely, "Why are you so surprised, Ms. Sloanton has a medical background and is also very proficient in sketching."

The third elder brother didn't expect this reversal, and couldn't recover in a daze: "Oh, that's it, ha ha!"

Yin Zuo lowered his head, holding back his laughter very hard.

After a while, the third elder brother fought weakly again: "Ms. Sloanton has to go to class and translate again. I'm afraid she is very busy. If she doesn't have time..."

Yinzuo smiled and said: "Third brother, I'm worrying too much. Sloanton is very efficient and energetic. Besides, sketching is her daily hobby. Don't worry about troubleping her. She will only be happy if you find her on purpose."

Third Elder Brother: "...Oh."

This time he couldn't find a reason to refute, so he couldn't help but sighed a long time, feeling quite helpless that he could only accept his fate.

Yin Zuo asked someone to invite Sloonton, and Sloonton came over after a while. As Yinzuo said, she heard that the third elder brother asked her to draw a picture, saying that it would be published in the newspaper, and she readily agreed.Then I borrowed Yinzuo's pen and paper and started writing immediately.

The third elder brother leaned forward and took a look. It is true that the painting is good, but the skill is more than enough, and the spirituality is not enough. It is far behind Xiaoxiang Layman, and it is about the same level as Yin Zuo.

He asked Sloanton: "Are there many people in your hometown who can sketch?"

After thinking about it, Sloanton didn't know if it was too much, probably not too much, but if it was less, it would not be difficult at all to find a few people who could sketch. The school also had a special sketching course.

Sloanton told the third elder brother about the situation, but the third elder brother had a thought: "Could it be that layman Xiaoxiang is a missionary?"

Yinzuo: "...No, don't guess, you can't guess!"

Third Elder Brother: "Oh!"

Instead, he thought of another thing: "Should we also find some people to learn how to draw?"

Not to mention, sometimes it is difficult to describe things clearly in words, and it will be much clearer with sketches.Aren’t the illustrations that Layman Xiaoxiang drew for Nalan Xingde and the picture that Sloanton is drawing are all examples?

During the period when the third elder brother was working as a newspaper, he also encountered many such situations, but most of the time he passed them vaguely.If there were no examples of illustrations in front of him, and Yinzuo happened to be in front of him this time, he would not propose to draw pictures. I am afraid that he would still deal with it as before: try to write as clearly as possible, and then it is up to the readers whether they can understand or not.

But now there is a way, the third elder brother looked at the sketch gradually formed by Sloonton: Isn't this a good way?

The only problem is that there are not many people who can sketch, and Yin Zuo, Xiaoxiang Layman and Sloanton are busy with each other, so it is impossible to draw for them often.It is serious to teach a few people.

Yin Zuo didn't care, he didn't want to hide it, he wanted to teach others before, but wasn't he too busy, as long as he didn't ask him to teach, whoever wanted to teach would teach, and he could expand his college by the way What about courses?

Sloanton loves to teach!Sketchbook is her hobby, teaching is the second, what a fairy job teaching sketching is!She immediately had a lively discussion with the third elder brother.

The two chatted happily and decided on the matter on the spot.

Yinzuo: "..." All right.

Yinzuo didn't want to have anything to do with this matter at all. He told the dean of the college and threw the dean to the third elder brother and Sloanton. He had other things to do.

He was busy changing the glazed window for Daiyu.

Lin Ruhai is really quite principled, Yinzuo told him to save some colored glaze for himself to change the windows, he said it outside the imperial study, just to let Liang Jiugong hear it, and then spread it to Kangxi's ears?Kangxi agreed without saying a word, but Lin Ruhai was lucky, he said he would not stay, and Yinzuo's thoughts were wasted.

That's all for Lin Ruhai, Daiyu paints every day, and the light is bad, so it's time to change the glass window as soon as possible.Now the third elder brother is still unable to get the turn, and he is waiting for it. I don’t know when it will be. When I changed the windows for Yin Zuo, the car of colored glaze was sent to Gandong No. [-]. The windows in the study room were not used up, so I changed the windows in the main hall. It's not enough, now it's just right to change Daiyu's study window, so Yinzuo came with things and people.

The colored glaze was processed according to the size given by Yin Zuo, and it would be replaced at the Lin family without much effort.The room was lit up immediately, Daiyu sat at the desk and flipped through two pages of the book, and said with a smile: "No wonder it took so much effort to go to the West, it's really a good thing."

Yinzuo nodded with a smile.

……

With the publication of San Age's article in "Beijing Daily", Liuli Chuang has become known to more people. San Age's description is very beautiful, and the accompanying pictures are even more vivid. People naturally yearn for Liuli Chuang.

But everyone knows that colored glaze is expensive, and ordinary people just imagine it, and don't even think about buying it by themselves.Those with power don't have to worry about not being able to use it, but merchants with money but no power, who are between being able to buy and not being able to buy, have to ask people to inquire.

Yin Zuo is right, they are very interested in Liuli Chuang.Who hasn't struggled with dim indoor lighting?Things that couldn't be solved by spending money in the past, it's easy to find a solution, so what's the point of spending some money?

They are not short of money, isn't it just to live comfortably when they earn money?

In short, Liulichuang has not been out of the Forbidden City, and it has become popular in the capital and even in the Qing Dynasty. Many wealthy households inquired and wanted to buy it, but they had nowhere to buy it, so they couldn't help scratching their heads.Looking back at the light in my study room, I used to think that the paper with excellent light transmission was used, and the light was already very good, but now I realize that it is nothing!

When can glass windows be used?

This wait lasted for three or four months, until the main palaces of the Forbidden City were replaced with glazed windows, and all the important officials of the imperial family were replaced, and then they began to flow into the people.

Kangxi asked people to build two other Liulichang, but the output was still limited, and there were countless wealthy households in the huge Qing Dynasty. Even though the Liulichuang was priced at a high price, the supply could not meet the demand.

Less than a month later, glazed mirrors were also listed for sale, attracting countless ladies and wealthy spenders.

The money flowed into the treasury like water, Kangxi was in a good mood, and everyone in the palace felt that life was getting better.

At this time, it was already winter, and Nalan Xingde returned to China for half a year, and saw all kinds of technologies put into production and research. He observed for half a year, and made several notebooks. I am preparing for my second mission next spring.

Different from last time, Nalan Xingde's departure from Beijing this time can be said to be very powerful. In addition to Yin Zuo and eldest elder brother, the third elder brother also came to see him off. Virtuous poetry fans and so on.

There were already enough people, and there were even more people who hadn't planned to come and heard that Yinzuo and the third elder brother had come and came to see them, so there were more.

Last time when he left Beijing, his future was uncertain, and Yin Zuo even made jokes to cheer Nalan Xingde up, but this time he didn't need it.There are countless fans cheering for him, and Nalan Xingde is not the same person he used to be. Even if the road ahead is still full of risks, he can remain calm.

He bid farewell to everyone, got on his horse amidst the sound of blessings from everyone, turned his head and nodded to Yinzuo: "Liu Baylor, take care!"

Yin Zuo said: "Take care!"

Nalan Xingde pulled the rein of the horse and left.

He left, and Yinzuo and the third elder brother couldn't leave for the time being.The two of them became more and more famous in the capital, and many people here also came to them, so they had to say hello.

Most of San Age's fans are scholars, chatting about articles and poetry together, it looks very harmonious.

Yin Zuo's side is also harmonious, but the painting style is a bit wrong.See what questions they are asking?

"My father's leg was broken, and the doctor said he couldn't recover. I wonder if I can ask you or the adults from the Military Medical Academy to take a look?"

"Liu Baylor, dare to ask what is the reason for the stomach cramps every night?"

Someone else shouted: "Liu Baylor, how can I tell if I have hemorrhoids?"

Big brother watching the fun: "..."

Yin Zuo answered these questions one by one, and those that could be solved were solved on the spot. Some of the questions were too far-fetched, so he could only talk a little bit, and then asked them to see a doctor. Yin Zuo asked people to register, and told them to go back to the Military Medical Academy to find him.

The fan meeting turned into a free clinic, and Yin Zuo looked at the joyful scene on the third elder brother's side, feeling a little envious in his heart.

At this moment, an old woman squeezed through the crowd and came to Yinzuo. Yinzuo smiled and asked, "Why is the old man uncomfortable?"

"We peasants are in good health, and we are not uncomfortable!" The old woman smiled, and the simplicity of the countryman overflowed, "I am from Qili Township, and the nobles used to take us to vaccinate."

Yinzuo retrieved this person from his distant memory, and said with a smile, "Grandma Liu, right? I remember you. I treated your son-in-law when he was sick!"

Grandma Liu nodded her head again and again, and said happily: "It's a shame that you still remember us, we have accepted your favor! I heard that you also found the golden potato from the south? The golden potato was planted in Huangzhuang for a trial. The village finds people to do the work, and the monthly money is not less. We also planted two acres, and life is much easier. There is no time when we can’t wear clothes or eat. The folks in Qili Township thank you Oh! I didn’t hear that you came here today, so I rushed over to see you, and the people in the country don’t have any good things, this is our own smoked meat, you should try it out.”

Yin Zuo had no choice but to ask someone to pick it up, and also asked Deqing to give him a reward. The old man is so old, and his family conditions are not very good. He may not be able to eat a few meals of meat in a year. Give him so much all at once. People don't know how much wronged they will suffer.

Grandma Liu repeatedly declined: "That's not going to happen! That's not going to happen! This is our little thought, how can we ask for money! If it weren't for you, we don't know what kind of life we ​​have! Besides, it was hard back then. Miss Lin even helped me when I was here!"

Yinzuo: "...Miss Lin?"

There is only one Miss Lin who has a relationship with him, and this Grandma Liu...

Yinzuo probed, "Are you related to the Jia family in Rongguo Mansion?"

"Exactly. My family was originally connected with the Wang family from the wife of the second room of Rongfu and the eldest grandmother of the eldest room." Grandma Liu felt a little embarrassed as she touched the half-worn jacket, "Wife and grandma are kind, Years were hard, so I went to Jia's house and got a lot of help. I met Miss Lin at that time, and Miss Lin also gave me 20 taels of silver. Did Miss Lin mention it to you?"

"That's right, you are sincere and wise. With you in charge of the family, you will definitely not be sad. Your daughter and son-in-law are blessed!"

"Hey! Hey!" Grandma Liu rubbed her hands, the corners of her mouth almost reaching behind her ears, "I can't afford it, I can't afford it! Miss Lin is a fairy-like figure!"

Yinzuo's mood was a little complicated. It turned out that before he knew it, the fate of many people had been changed.Grandma Liu's life is getting better, but the Grand View Garden, which made her make a fool of herself, has not been built at all, and everything has changed.

Grandma Liu refused to ask for money, she was all-in-one, and it would not be nice to force it. Yinzuo just wanted to look back and find an errand for her family in the factory.

After tossing and tossing for half an hour, Yinzuo, eldest elder brother, and third elder brother rode back to Beijing. On the way, third elder brother glanced at elder brother, quite proud of overwhelming each other.

Today many people come for him, but no one comes for Big Brother!

The elder brother rolled his eyes, and Yinzuo was also a little speechless.

The eldest brother has almost taken root in the military camp, so what's the surprise that outsiders don't know him well?But if the place is changed to a military camp, do you see if there are more people who like the big elder brother or the third elder brother?

The third elder brother didn't want to think so, he just wanted to enjoy the pleasure right now.After finishing his contempt for Big Brother, he turned his head and asked Yinzuo: "The incident just now was very touching, why don't you report it?"

Yinzuo didn't react: "?"

Third elder brother: "Just now about the old man, didn't she come to thank you specially, how touching."

Yin Zuo: "... You were talking to someone else, how did you know?"

"I saw it," the third elder brother said, "I'm talking to someone, so it doesn't affect my hearing and seeing the movement on your side."

Yin Zuo: ... Good guy, is this the quality of a journalist?

He rejected the proposal of the third elder brother, one is that he doesn't want to sell his emotions, and the other is that Grandma Liu may not be willing to be published in the newspaper.The third elder brother was quite regretful, and sighed again and again, Yin Zuo just pretended not to hear.

When he returned to the capital, he went to the Military Medical College first, left the information of the patients registered today, and told the students to see a doctor if anyone seeks medical treatment, and if he cannot be cured, he should be notified, and the college will reimburse the medical expenses.

Just think of it as gaining experience for the students.A few years have passed, and these students are almost ready to graduate, and many of them have gone to the battlefield to practice, so it is reassuring to ask them to see Yin Zuo.

After explaining the matter, Yinzuo returned to the palace. He went to greet Concubine De first, and told Concubine De what happened today.

Concubine De couldn't help laughing when she heard that she was being sent off for the Yiyi clinic. After hearing about Grandma Liu, she nodded again and again, and patted Yinzuo's hand: "Mr. Lin is fine."

Yinzuo was stunned for a while before realizing that the Lin family Defei was talking about was sister Lin.

The corner of his mouth twitched, there was nothing wrong with his words, but why did it sound so awkward?

Return sister Lin's fairy spirit!

Yin Zuo's heart collapsed, but his face was still serious, and he even nodded in agreement: "It's good to be kind-hearted, but she still has something to learn. When she enters the palace, she will have to take the trouble to teach her."

Concubine De nodded at him: "Then what do you need to say?"

Yinzuo smiled.

Concubine De thought of something, and a smile appeared on her face: "The news I heard today is that your fourth brother will come back this year for Chinese New Year."

"Really?" Yin Zuo was pleasantly surprised at first, and then asked in confusion, "Didn't it mean that He Shang couldn't let go, why did he come back this year?"

It wasn't that he was unhappy, he hadn't seen the fourth elder brother for a long time, and he was looking forward to his return.It's just that the river affairs are very important, Yu Chenglong and the fourth elder brother are so busy that they don't have a free time even during the Chinese New Year. Last year, the fourth elder brother did not come back for the New Year. How can he come back this year?

"On the river, I asked Yu Chenglong to take care of it in advance. Your fourth brother must come back," said Concubine De with a smile, "He is not young, he will be eighteen after the new year. What the emperor means is to ask him to get married next year." , the marriage has been fixed year after year, and he has to come back for the ceremony."

"That's how it is, yes, yes!" Yin Zuo said with a smile, "My son congratulates Er Niang first. The fourth brother married his sister-in-law, and Er Niang has another daughter. Maybe there will be a little niece in two years. Or a nephew, when Cheng Huan is at her knees, Emiang will be happy."

Concubine De's well-maintained face was almost wrinkled from laughter, and she still said: "I feel a headache just thinking about it, what's so good about it?"

Yin Zuo only wanted to coax Concubine De to be happy, but he didn't want Concubine De to change her voice, saying: "Speaking of which, you are only two years younger than Xiao Si, and you will be sixteen in Chinese New Year. Siu Si got married late, so next year is just right for you to get married. "

Yinzuo: "..."

Yinzuo waved his hands again and again: "It's not suitable, it's not suitable! It's too young to be married at sixteen, I'm not yet an adult!"

Concubine De thought that Yin Zuo was referring to Ji Guan, so she gave him an angry look and said, "Look around, who got married at fifteen or sixteen, and how many people got married at twenty? It's too late!"

Yinzuo thought about it for a while, it was true, the elder brother got married at the age of 16, the prince and the third elder brother, and the fourth elder brother were later, but it was for the sake of keeping filial piety.

But tell him to get married at the age of sixteen... Yinzuo shook his head, he was still too young, he couldn't accept it!

Concubine De didn't want her son to be so resistant to getting married, so she kept asking why.

Yinzuo said: "I'm too young. Getting married now is not good for my health. If I give birth to a child, I will die easily."

He blinked his big eyes and looked at Concubine De, trying to let her see his sincerity.

Concubine De's reaction was: "Hehe! Why don't you just say it straight? What is it for!"

Yinzuo: "..."

Why don't you believe it?

He tried his best to explain to Concubine De, but Concubine De didn't believe it, and questioned Yinzuo's attitude: "Little Wu is only one year older than you, and he will get married next year, and even Xiao Qi and Xiao Ba have to set a wedding date." Well, it's only a couple of years before we get married, no one else has any objections, only you don't want it, could it be...you don't like Mrs. Lin?"

The more Concubine De concubine thought about it, the more likely it was that this marriage was not meant for a serious draft, but was specially rewarded by Kangxi for Lin Ruhai's contribution.However, no matter what contributions Lin Ruhai made, he was of Han origin. Even if he raised the flag, it was nothing more than a Han army flag. His family background was not as good as that of the other Fujin, and it was not impossible for Yinzuo to be dissatisfied.

Yinzuo: "..."

Yin Zuo never expected that things would unfold like this, so if he doesn't agree today, it means he doesn't like sister Lin?

Concubine De frowned and lowered her voice: "You can't let yourself be like this, this marriage is bestowed by the emperor, whether it is good or bad, it is a holy grace, so pick and choose is not acceptable! Even if the emperor loves you, you have to be careful."

Yin Zuo: "...get married!" Is it okay to get married?

Concubine De then breathed a sigh of relief: "That's right, no matter what you think in your heart, you'll be fine on the surface."

Yinzuo: "...I really have nothing to dissatisfy."

Concubine De clapped her palms: "That's right, that's the way to say it, so as not to let people catch the wrong place and say something."

Yinzuo: "..." Doesn't it make sense?

He left the Yonghe Palace depressed, but he didn't know that after he left, Concubine De also sighed. Discord between husband and wife is the root of chaos in a family. With a son like this... I hope my wife has a good temper.

But thinking of the girl I saw last time, she looked soft, gentle and gentle, but she didn't seem to be soft and tempered.Concubine De couldn't help having a headache. Before her daughter-in-law entered the house, she could already imagine how the son's house would be like a mess in the future.

I still have to talk about Yin Zuo, no matter what I feel in my heart, I have to respect my daughter-in-law on the face.

By the way, as a mother-in-law, she has to be nice to her daughter-in-law, so just for her sake, the daughter-in-law can be more tolerant.
