[Qing Chuan] Yongzheng's embarrassing empress

Su Peisheng knelt on the ground and wanted to cry, "Fu Jin calm down first, this matter is a long story, let me explain it slowly."

Shuwan snorted coldly and asked Chun'er to move the stool.

"Please sit down, Mr. Su. I'm very free today. I have a lot of time to listen to you. Slow down! Slow down! Talk!"

Su Peisheng sat down tremblingly with a bitter face, only dared to sit on the side of the stool.

He swallowed, "Fu Jin, elder brother is not cheated, these three hairpins are not worth 1000 taels, but after careful calculation, it is indeed the price."

Shuwan looked at him expressionlessly.

"You mean these hairpins contain the thoughts of the fourth elder brother, so they are worth more? Whether they are worth 1000 taels of silver depends on what I think? I think it is worth it, and he is worth it, I think Is it worth it or not?"

Shuwan sneered, you don't read much but you are quite idealistic!

Su Peisheng quickly explained: "Fu Jin misunderstood! The materials for these three hairpins are not expensive, they are just some tiny pearls, some tourmalines, and some gold. The real expensive thing is the labor cost. Look at how delicate the workmanship is!"

"Do you think I have never made jewelry? In the capital, 300 taels of silver can make a gold necklace inlaid with pearls and jade! The cost of materials and labor is included! How much does the gold necklace weigh? How much does the gold hairpin weigh? You think I am stupid Are you so confused?"

Su Peisheng knelt down again with a thump, "Fu Jin calm down, I swear, I swear, I really didn't lie to you! These three hairpins were designed by Lord Baylor himself. The craftsmanship is relatively difficult, and the need is very urgent. Several craftsmen stayed up day and night It took many days to finish.

After it was finished, Lord Baylor was not satisfied with it, so he called back and asked them to redo it.This was repeated three times, and finally Lord Baylor was finally satisfied.

The labor cost of going back and forth to modify, plus the loss of some materials caused by rework, in the end... finally calculated, the total cost was less than 1000 taels.There is a little silver left, Lord Baylor rewarded the errand runners..."

Shuwan: "..."

Nanny Ning glanced at Shuwan, she saw that Shuwan was silent, so she asked for Shuwan.

"Last year, Lord Baylor paid 6000 taels of silver. What did you do with it?"

Su Peisheng replied in a low voice: "I ordered porcelain for Fujin."

Shuwan pointed to the tea set on the table, "Is this the porcelain?"

"Exactly! For this set of porcelain, Lord Belle has spent a lot of thought. Lord Belle dare not use people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. There are many people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. He is afraid that the Ministry of Internal Affairs will leak the news and it will not be good for Fujin's reputation, so They sent someone to find a famous kiln master.

It is also very expensive to burn the kiln, and in order to burn the porcelain that Baylor wants, it is inevitable to have to trial and error.For this set of porcelain, dozens of carts were used just to burn the wood for the kiln.The burnt porcelain was smashed and dug a deep pit, but it couldn't be buried.

In addition to this, there are manpower and transportation costs, so this set of porcelain cost a lot of money. "

Shuwan rubbed her ears, feeling a bad premonition in her heart, "What does the burnt porcelain look like? Is it cracked?"

Su Peisheng: "Some are burnt and cracked, and some are flawed. Lord Baylor is very concerned about your affairs. He carefully inspects every piece of porcelain he gets. If he finds any flaws, he immediately takes them out, smashes them, and buries them. Burn again."

"Should we smash only one defective product, or smash the whole box?"

Su Peisheng's voice became softer and softer, "Of course the whole box was smashed... It's not from the same kiln, and the glaze color will be slightly different. This set of porcelain is for your use, and it must not fall into the hands of outsiders." , so as long as one has a flaw, the whole box will be smashed..."

Su Peisheng used many words such as "of course" and "so" in his words, but it does not mean that he agrees with Baylor's consumption concept.

To be honest, when Su Peisheng watched the money flow away like running water, his heart ached, even though the money was not his.

Su Peisheng understood Fujin's mood very well at the moment, but he hoped that Fujin's grievances and debts would be rewarded, and he must not make trouble for himself. He is just an innocent little eunuch!

Shuwan took a deep breath, she kicked her legs and leaned her head back on the chair, regardless of her appearance.

Apart from the word 'convinced', she couldn't say anything else.

"7000 taels of silver before and after, how much land can be bought together! In the end, only a box of porcelain and three hairpins are left..."

Shu Wan suddenly sat up straight, and directed Nanny Ning and the others to take away the porcelain and hairpins.

"Put it away quickly and don't let me see it, or I won't be able to bear it!"

Shuwan covered her eyes, and Nanny Ning and the others immediately replaced the things.

Su Peisheng knelt down obediently, trying to minimize his sense of existence, lest Fujin take his anger out on him.

After everything was removed, Shuwan put down her hands and resumed her dignified sitting posture.

"It's hard work, Eunuch Su, for making a trip, you should go back first! When elder brother comes back in the evening, you will know what to say and what not to say, right?"

Su Peisheng nodded again and again, "Slaves are counted, and slaves are especially counted in their hearts! Don't worry about Fujin!"

Su Peisheng got permission and ran away like a wild horse.

Shuwan rolled her eyes and cursed, "Be as virtuous as his master!"

Nanny Ning persuaded: "Fu Jin, don't be angry, Lord Belle spent so much money for you! Lord Belle didn't take out the money to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble. Thinking about it this way, doesn't it make you feel better?"

Shuwan's deep eyes stared fixedly at Nanny Ning, "I can only feel better if I get the money back. Can Nanny get the money back for me?"

Nanny Ning lowered her head and did not speak.

Shuwan sneered, ah, mammy!Just like a man, he usually talks nicely, but when he mentions money, he becomes a different person!

Qiuxiang winked at Nanny Ning and Chun'er Xia'er, telling them to find an excuse to go out first, and she and Bingxiang persuaded Fujin.

Nanny Ning and the others made an excuse that they were going to see the two elder brothers, and then left the room.

Qiuxiang first made a cup of chrysanthemum tea for Shuwan, "Fujin drinks some tea to calm down, Madam Ning is old-fashioned, but she is right in one sentence. It is better to spend this money on you than he spends on you." Wouldn't it be better to go out and squander the money?"

Shuwan knocked on the table to focus, "You have to pay attention, that's 7000 taels! 7000 taels of silver! Rounded up, it's 1 taels! It's enough for our family to eat for a year!"

Qiuxiang said helplessly: "But... the money has already been spent, and it won't help if you get angry!"

Bingxiang also persuaded: "Go out and find out, whose man is willing to spend thousands of taels of silver just to make Fujin happy? With a husband like Lord Baylor, you can be content!"

Shuwan said angrily: "Hey! Are you his dowry girl or mine, why are you still talking to him? Get out of here, this month's monthly payment is gone!"

Qiuxiang and Bingxiang were also driven out, and Nurse Ning and the others went up to meet them.

"How is it? Is Fujin still angry?"

Qiu Xiang nodded helplessly, "Fu Jin also fined us both monthly allowances."

Chun'er was speechless, "Fu Jin will not punish people easily, it seems that she is very angry."

Xia'er was worried, "Fu Jin has been in poor health recently, but now he is angry again, isn't that even worse? I'll ask the imperial physician to show Fujin!"

Nanny Ning stopped her, "You have to tie the bell to untie it. Fujin is angry with Lord Belle, and in the end it has to be coaxed by Lord Belle, so let's stop meddling. If Lord Belle can't coax him well, let's find a way." It's also in time."

Qiu Xiang smiled and said: "Mama is indeed an old man who has seen the world. You are the one who can hold on to the critical moment. If you were not here, we little girls who have never seen the world would have panicked."

Qiuxiang's flattery hit the right spot, and Nanny Ning was very upset when she heard her words.

She thought to herself: I am not always as blank as yesterday.

She smiled and said to Qiuxiang and the others: "You guys, you still have something to learn!"

In the evening, the fourth elder brother came back, Shuwan got the news and went to meet him at the gate of the main courtyard.

The fourth elder brother saw Shuwan hurriedly walked a few steps, and came over to hold her hand.

"You haven't confinement yet! What are you doing out there? It's still cold, you're weak, be careful of catching cold."

Shuwan smiled and said: "Generally, only one month is enough for confinement. I am double confinement, and it is not bad for these days. These days I am bored in the room every day, and I want to go out for a walk. Besides, elder brother sent me off yesterday. I have such a good gift, I also have a gift, I can't wait to give it to my brother."

The fourth elder brother was delighted when he heard this, and there was nothing more gratifying than getting his own wishes answered.

The fourth elder brother took Shuwan's hand and returned to the house. After entering the house, he took off his cloak, rubbed his hands, and waited impatiently for the gift that Shuwan had prepared.

Shuwan smiled at him, and threw the wooden board standing at the door on the ground.

The fourth elder brother looked at the board carefully, feeling at a loss in his heart, "What is this?"

Shuwan covered her mouth and smirked, "Oh! My brother probably hasn't seen this before, this is called a washboard!"

Shuwan picked up the washboard and showed it to the fourth elder brother, "It's made of ordinary poplar wood, with lines on it, kneeling on it, special! Don't! It hurts!"

The fourth elder brother was shocked, "You are so courageous, you dare to make me kneel like this!"

Shuwan hugged the washboard and yelled back, "You are so courageous, don't discuss it with me, and pay 7000 taels of silver from the public!"

The fourth elder brother was stunned for a moment, and it took a long time to realize what Shuwan said about the 7000 taels of silver.He paid the money in batches and didn't take the money seriously at all.

"I didn't do it all at once!" The fourth elder brother waved his hand, almost causing Shuwan to lead him astray.

"Didn't the 7000 taels of silver be spent on you in the end! Why are you so angry!"

Shuwan: "That's the money from the public, and it's the expense of the whole family. You don't care how much money is left on the account, just take away a few thousand taels casually. If the money is gone, our family will die Do you want to drink the northwest wind?"

"Why not? I just left the palace last year, and the 5 taels of silver on the account, could it be spent in one year?"

The fourth elder brother was a little angry, he gave things with good intentions, but Shuwan quarreled with him for a few money, it was really chilling.

"Now there is only more than 1 taels in the book, and the rest of the money is used to buy houses and land. Although the property has been purchased, the time is too short, and the benefits are not visible yet. Wait for you to withdraw another 5000 taels, and we will We don't have to live this year! Don't forget, the emperor won't give us food and drink this year!"

The fourth elder brother was tongue-tied, he didn't expect the money to be so carelessly spent.

"This... I think you are in a bad mood, I just want to make you happy!"

Shuwan thought: You speak nicely, but I think you don't just want to give me a gift, you just want to be Party A.Look at what you've changed. If you weren't rich, you would have been overwhelmed by the spittle of those craftsmen.

Shuwan sighed, and spread her hands to the fourth elder brother.

"What do you want?" Brother Si asked.

"I want money!" Shuwan said, "I am grateful for my elder brother's kindness, but you took more than half of the split money as private money. If you want to give me a gift to make me happy, you can't use the money from the public office, you have to use it." Your private money is the one that shows sincerity!"

The fourth elder brother had no choice but to say, "Okay, okay! I'll ask Su Peisheng to give you a bank note in a while, okay! Sifujin?"

Shuwan smiled, "That's more or less the same!"

The fourth elder brother complained: "This makes you happy? Only 7000 taels of silver can make you happy. If I knew that I would give you the silver directly, it would save me a lot of trouble."

Shuwan tilted her head to look at him, "Giving money doesn't conflict with giving things? Why can't you give me that set of porcelain stuffed with money?"

Fourth elder brother: "...you are really greedy!"

Shuwan stuffed the washboard into Si Age's arms, then held his face and kissed him.

"Although you made me angry by tampering with the public money, I am still very grateful to you. Thank you for being with me these days and caring about me. Now I am all well! I am not sad, I feel energetic all over my body. I can't do anything!"

Fourth elder brother took a bite on her face, "Hmph, you still have a bit of conscience!" Finally, he didn't let his thoughts go to waste.

The fourth elder brother walked inside with the washboard in one hand and Shuwan in the other.

Shuwan stood still, "What are you doing? Where are you taking me?"

"Go back to the room and talk!"

Shuwan pushed him hard, "I'm sorry! I'm not confinement yet! I can't have sex with you, it's against the rules!"

"Yesterday we slept together, that's not what you said, you hug me and don't let go!"

Shuwan blinked innocently, "Yesterday was yesterday, today I realized my mistake, and decided to make amends!"

Shuwan pushed the fourth elder brother away, and even patted the washboard in his hand.

"I'm wronged brother to sleep with the washboard tonight! This is a gift from me. When you see it, you will think of me. Let's talk about your lovesickness!"

Shuwan pushed and shoved the fourth elder brother out, and the fourth elder brother looked around holding the washboard.

The servants in the yard saw him and quickly looked away, pretending that they didn't see anything.

The fourth elder brother returned to the main room with the washboard in his arms, he sighed in his heart.

It's so frustrating!Talking about talking, he used to look down on Lao Ba being ruled by Fujin, and now he is also under Fujin's rule. This is the retribution of Lao Ba's joke!

After arguing with the fourth elder brother, Shuwan actually felt that she was in a much better mood.

She was no longer in a daze, nor would she want to cry all of a sudden.

She felt that her former self was back. She resumed sports, groomed as before, and had the strength to take care of her children and housework.

After confinement, Shuwan went to the martial arts field to practice martial arts every day, and the martial arts field given to her by the fourth elder brother finally became useful.

Seeing Shuwan's mood getting better and better, the fourth elder brother mentioned his mother-in-law to her.

In the martial arts arena, Shuwan was boxing in the open space, while the fourth elder brother stood aside and chatted with his hands behind his back.

"When you were in confinement, I went to visit my mother-in-law. She didn't look very well, which was similar to your situation at that time. You were not in good health at the time. I was afraid that you would feel uncomfortable if you knew it, so I didn't dare to tell you."

Shuwan stopped her movements, "Why? A few days ago, I sent someone back to my mother's house to look at it, and the servants said that my mother-in-law is in good health."

The fourth elder brother said: "Mother-in-law probably cheered up and put on a show. She is afraid that you will be worried. I think you should go back and see for yourself. You and mother-in-law are real mother and daughter. Are you pretending to live well or are you real? Have a good time, you will know when you go home and have a look."

Shuwan leaned over to the fourth elder brother and hugged him, "Thank you, your son-in-law is more caring than my own daughter."

Brother Si loves to hear these words very much, he smiled reservedly, "We are all a family, no need to thank you."

With the reminder from the fourth elder brother, Shuwan sent someone to deliver the post, and went back to her mother's house in a carriage the next day.

Shuwan's sisters-in-law greeted her warmly, as if they had a good relationship when Shuwan was not married.

Seeing the fawning looks of her sister-in-laws, Shuwan felt impatient.

There are other purposes behind this kind of attentiveness, some want to find a good job for the husband and son, and some want to let their daughter be taken care of during the draft.The draft is easy to say, for the sake of the children, this request is not too much.

The worst thing is that I hope that my daughter or a girl from a relative's family can be selected into the harem!

This is too much not to treat Shuwan as an outsider!Shuwan is the prince Fujin, the emperor's younger generation, not the emperor's mother, how could she interfere with the results of the draft?This book is not the queen mother's style of painting is different!

Shu Wanxu and the snake, after a few words, went to see her mother.

Several sister-in-laws hurriedly sent her there, and at the door Shuwan said coldly: "I know all the sister-in-laws are busy, so you don't have to accompany me, I'll go have a private conversation with my mother."

When Shuwan issued the order to evict the guests, her sister-in-laws smiled embarrassingly and bowed to leave.

Arriving at her mother's room, as soon as Shuwan entered, her mother-in-law wanted to salute.

"Greetings to Belle Fujin."

Shuwan quickly went to help her, and she said angrily: "I am your biological child, you are still messing with me like this!"

"Fu Jin, etiquette cannot be discarded!"

Shuwan's eyes turned red immediately, "Okay! Don't salute! I feel uncomfortable when you do this."

Her mother-in-law smiled and said, "What is there to be sad about becoming a master?"

Her mother-in-law looked at Shuwan's expression carefully, "Not bad! You look good! I know you. On the surface, I look at you with a big heart, but in fact, your heart is like the tip of a needle, and you are bored in your heart. I am always afraid of you. You worry too much and bore yourself."

Shuwan rubbed her eyes, "Isn't Er Niang the same? If I didn't come, I thought everything would be fine! I didn't expect you to be so thin! Why didn't you tell me?"

Shuwan's mother-in-law gently waved her hand, "I'm old, it's better to be thinner, and thinner! I'm too fat to look stupid!"

Shuwan touched her mother's arm, the silk and satin looked like a skeleton, how energetic is she?

Shuwan helped Er Niang to sit down, and she sat beside Er Niang.

"This time, I have to settle accounts with you! If you are not feeling well, you should tell me. I sent someone to say hello, but you still kept it from me! If the fourth elder brother hadn't told me that you were not in good health, I would have been punished. Keep it in the dark!"

Her mother-in-law sighed: "The fourth elder brother is really a good husband. How noble the princes are, he still knows to come to see me. Of course, I also know that he is visiting me by the way. The main reason is that he wants me to go to Baylor Mansion to accompany him." You. But I'm old and I can't move anymore, so please make a trip for nothing."

"Now that you know you're old, you should take care of your body!"

Shuwan's mother-in-law nodded repeatedly, but she sighed repeatedly in her heart.Anyone can say good things, but it's hard to do!

Every time Shuwan's mother answered, she always talked about him from left to right. She didn't want to answer the topic of her daughter, so she could just talk about her daughter's recent situation.

"Although the fourth elder brother didn't tell me carefully, I can also see that you were stimulated to give birth prematurely. You were depressed during the confinement period. There must be something wrong with your body. Now that you are in good spirits, it can be seen that you have come out .”

Shuwan looked at the furnishings in the room, and suddenly thought about it.

"Oh, it's thanks to the fourth elder brother. He treats me very well. Seeing that I am not happy, he goes home early every day to coax me, and he doesn't care much about the affairs of the yamen. I have persuaded him twice to take his official duties as the main priority. Heavy, but he never listens!"

Shuwan's mother-in-law: "..." Why do these words sound so harsh?

Shuwan then smiled and said: "Speaking of which, I would also like to thank Ama and the emperor for allowing me to marry into the royal family. The fourth elder brother is so generous! In order to make me happy, he spent 1000 taels of silver to order a few pieces of jewelry. Because it is not in the palace. The craftsman here feels that the craftsmanship is mediocre, but it’s not bad at all!”

"1000 taels of silver?" Er Niang asked, "Which shop is it? How many pieces of jewelry have you ordered?"

"I've ordered three hairpins, but I didn't ask which shop they are. Anyway, as long as the things look good, why ask the shop? That makes me look like a philistine, so vulgar!"

Mother-in-law: A philistine?tacky?I really want to call your face with one mouth!

Touching her nails, Shuwan continued, "Last year, my elder brother ordered a set of porcelain for me. Because my elder brother has high requirements, I only finished the porcelain this year. This set of lake blue porcelain is so beautiful! The fourth elder brother loves me very much. Not a single flaw is allowed on the porcelain, but if there is a slight flaw, the whole set of porcelain will be broken."

Shuwan's mother-in-law asked tremblingly, "How much did it cost?"

"Not much! Sixty-seven thousand taels of silver! This price is very suitable! Er Niang, that is porcelain that has been fired many times, so it is very precious."

"Is it an official kiln?"

"No! It's a folk kiln. The fourth elder brother sent someone to hire a seasoned master. It cost a lot of money to hire the master!"

Shuwan's mother-in-law couldn't bear it anymore, she slapped Shuwan on the shoulder.

Shuwan's shoulders numb, isn't her mother in a depressed mood, why is she so skinny?Why is his hand so strong?

Shuwan's mother-in-law scolded: "How did I teach you when you were at home? If you become the prince Fujin, you will be floating away, and you don't take 1 taels of silver seriously! You are like this, on the fourth beile's house!" Sooner or later, you will be defeated!"

Shuwan's mother-in-law covered her heart, no, she can't fall down yet, she has to remake her daughter, or she will be sorry to the emperor!I'm sorry Si Age!
