Rebirth side Fujin

Chapter [-] Trivia

Taking into account the Empress Dowager's body, he did not rush back to Beijing this time. When he returned to the capital, his clothes had already been covered with a layer of cotton.When Wanning got out of the carriage, she saw Qi Jia and others standing in front of the palace gate in red and green, looking at Yinhu with hints of admiration, as if wishing that Yinhu could go to their yard after a little grooming.

"Ama and Erniang are back." Hu Tuli was the first to greet her, "My daughter greets Amaniang."

"It looks like it's grown taller again." Yinhu stretched out his hand and touched Hutuli's head, "It's cold, let's freeze carefully." Then he glanced at Qi Jiashi and the others who were eagerly waiting beside him, "Let's all go back."

"Yes." Qi Jia bit her lip, "My concubine has already had hot water and meals prepared, sir, where are they placed?"

"Just put it in Shaoxiu Academy." Yinhu said, "Hongwang and Hongxin should also make proper preparations."

"The concubine knows." Qi Jia said again, "Sister An was ill a few days ago, and she is recuperating now, so she couldn't come out to meet Master and Fujin today."

"Understood, did you ask someone to call the imperial physician?"

"My concubine has sent someone to invite the imperial physician. The imperial physician said that Sister An's evil spirits have entered her body, and it is not suitable to blow wind during these days." Qi Jia said gently, "I also asked the kitchen to decoct the medicine for Sister An on time, so as not to The illness was delayed."

"You've done a good job." Yinhu nodded, "I've worked hard on you for the past two months. I got some roe deer skins from the hunting ground. Chen Xi will send them to you later."

Mrs. Qi Jia was naturally happy when she received the reward, and she couldn't care less about the envious eyes of Mrs. Lang and Mrs. Borzigit behind her. After watching Yinhu and Wanning leave, she secretly calculated: She will assist the government in the past two months. Only after eating the sweetness can she understand how much satisfaction power brings to people. Now that Fujin has returned to the house, will she hand over the power of housekeeper or not?If you want to return it, how can you show that you are not greedy for power in front of the master?

"My sister is really lucky. First, she was trusted by the side Fujin to manage all the affairs of the house, and now she is rewarded by the master. It can be seen that she is favored." Jin Buyao gave Qi Jia a disdainful smile, "But if people don't want to know, unless I do nothing about it, my sister will drive away the old people in the mansion. I don't know what kind of expression Ce Fujin will have when he finds out. How will it be handled then?"

Qi Jia's eyes darkened, and he said after a while: "I'm just following the rules. Since the people below made a mistake, it's only natural that they should be punished. Even if Fang Fujin knew about it, he should understand what I did. .”

"Then I'll just wait and see." Mrs. Borzigit snorted, turned a corner and walked to her own yard.

Lang didn't say anything, just nodded to Qi Jia, and led the people back to his yard.

Qi Jia secretly gritted her teeth. In the past two months, she has indeed taken care of many people in the purchasing department, kitchen and sewing room. Those who ended up better were demoted and their salaries were lowered, and those who were worse were directly transferred to Beijing. Zhuangzi in the suburbs, and then arranged the people he bought in.It's just that those servants who were punished did make mistakes, and it was impossible for even Fujin to insist on bringing those people back regardless of right and wrong.

Thinking of this, Qi Jia's waist straightened even more.

Wanning is not dissatisfied with Qi Jia's punishment of several servants. Relying on the fact that they are old people in the mansion, those people are able to obey the orders of their masters and violate them, and make fraudulent accounts to steal money from them. She was originally Thinking about how to deal with them one by one after Qiu Xun came back, she didn't expect that Sleepy would give her a pillow, and Qi Jia's holding these people to stand up, saved her a lot of effort.However, the people Qi Jia's new arrangement is nothing more than that, not reliable at all.

"Master, Chen Xi sent someone to say that the lord has made an appointment with Jiu Bei Le and Shi Bei Le, and they will not return home later." Hu Po put down a cup of tea by Wan Ning's hand, and then said.

"Understood." Wanning flipped through the account book, "For those people who were punished by the Qi Jia family earlier, you can tell Chen Xi to find a few strong and skilled eunuchs to copy and inspect them. Learn from them If you have a lot of money, you can't just relegate it to the Zhuangzi and let it go. Don't let them take up any duties that have passed the money, so as not to make them greedy again."

"Yes." Hu Po replied, "Master, I have to go to the palace tomorrow to pay my respects to the concubine Liang. Let's take a rest after dinner. Master has not had a good appetite these days, and the slave has already called the little concubine. The kitchen has made porridge, and let the cook cook some refreshing side dishes, why not pass the meal on now?"

"That's good." Wanning blinked her sleepy eyes, "Bring out another quilt later, it's really cold at night."

"My master has been lacking in energy since Mulan Qiuxi came back. Why don't you ask An to come back tomorrow and let the imperial physician take a look. It just so happens that An Gege also asks the imperial physician to take a pulse." Hu Po saw that Wanning hadn't been able to adjust for the past few days, He said worriedly, "Master still needs to bring the little elder brother back. If he doesn't maintain his energy well, I'm afraid he will be even more tired."

Wanning didn't object to Hu Po's opinion, she just said: "Speaking of which, how could the well-behaved Anshi get sick?"

"This servant is not clear either. I heard that he caught a cold at night and was not treated in time." Amber said, "An Gege has been busy doing embroidery work for a few days before his illness, and it is probably due to being tired."

"I know she is skillful, but the embroiderer in the sewing room is very capable, so she does everything by herself?" Wanning frowned slightly, "I'll call Aunt Zhen tomorrow, and I'll ask if it's her." What's the matter." An's temperament is weak, although he is proficient in poetry and books, he is not very talkative like a dull gourd, so Yinhu doesn't often go to her place.Could it be that because seeing her as unfavorable, the people below deliberately neglected her?

"The servant will also go to inquire tomorrow." Hu Po asked Zisu to pass on the meal in the small kitchen, "The servant also made chicken soup stewed, and the master drank a bowl to keep his whole body warm."

Meals are prepared in the small kitchen of Shaoxiu Courtyard, and the taste is natural and impeccable.After eating the freshly pickled pickled cucumbers and shredded radish, Wanning's appetite finally improved. Eating the hot porridge with side dishes is very refreshing; and drinking a bowl of ginseng chicken soup full of umami makes her feel both physically and mentally. comfortable.

"If Master is coming back late, remember to ask someone to make some supper." Shaoxiu Courtyard was also locked on time, so Yinhu naturally could not enter Shaoxiu Courtyard again.Wanning changed her pajamas, "Make something easy to overcome."

"Master, don't worry, our yard is locked, as well as the kitchen." Hu Po tucked the quilt up for Wan Ning, "Qijiagege still refuses to call out the power of housekeeper, and now he must wish to be in the prince's house." To show off her virtuousness and ability to the front, she will definitely prepare for these things."

Wanning smiled, but acquiesced to Hu Po's words.

The green chrysanthemums in the Changchun Palace were in full bloom, and after Wanning greeted Concubine Liang with a smile, she presented the things she had prepared to Concubine Liang one by one.There are muffs, cloaks and waistcoats made of leather hunted by Yinhu from the hunting grounds, gold and silver jewellery, leather and dried meat tributes from various Mongolian ministries, and twelve orchid-shaped orchids that Wanning asked to go to the silver building in the south before leaving the house. Nobile.Although the custom-made jewelry outside is not as luxurious as the inside ones, it is more exquisite and matches Concubine Liang's temperament.

"A few days ago, the emperor rewarded a few pieces of leather, and you gave me so much. How can I use them up? I'd better take them back." Concubine Liang held a hand stove in her hand, "I know that your filial piety is enough. gone."

"If the concubine's body is really taken back, the master will say that I am not good at doing things." Wanning rarely outlined a relatively thick makeup to conceal the fatigue on her face, "These are the master's wishes, the empress will accept it. The twelve gold hairpins were drawn by the master himself, and sent to the south to be made, and the things were sent to Beijing the day before yesterday; and the skins of these winter clothes were hunted by the master himself, and the empress must be warm in wearing them."

Hearing that the things were prepared by Yinhu himself, Concubine Liang's hopeless expression finally relaxed a little.Seeing this, Zhang Momo hurriedly said: "These gold hairpins are suitable for this season, and these winter clothes are the filial piety of the eighth elder brother, so please accept it, master."

"Is Concubine Hui prepared for the same?" Concubine Liang asked.

"It's all ready." Wanning said quickly.

"Nurse, put it away." Concubine Liang reached out her hand to touch the fox fur trimmed on the cloak, "I'm going to wear it this winter."

Only then did Wanning feel relieved, just in time for the wet nurse to take out the youngest son.It is estimated that he ate a lot of good food at Concubine Liang's place. The youngest son looked more and more chubby, but he didn't recognize anyone after being away from Wanning for two months. It was because Wanning was hugged in his arms for a long time before he was willing to say "" Mother." Wanning kissed the bulging cheeks of her youngest son, and said with a smile, "It's because my mother has raised her well, and my little elder brother has gained a lot of weight."

"Little elder brother is very good, and he is not picky about food." Concubine Liang smiled when she saw her little grandson, "I thought that little elder brother is more than one year old now, shouldn't he be given a big name?"

"I've been thinking about it, and I've picked out a few words, but I haven't decided yet." Wanning said.

Concubine Liang nodded, and then said: "While there is still some time, go and say hello to Concubine Hui. Concubine Hui has been in poor health for a while, and the direct prince Wang Fujin has to take care of the children and take care of the affairs of the house. There is no way to go to the palace to accompany her all the time, so you can talk to her as well."

Concubine Liang took into account that Concubine Hui was the one who raised Yinhu, and she was afraid that others would say that Yinhu had disobeyed her adoptive mother since her birth mother became a concubine. Wanning also understood Concubine Liang's worries, so she carried her youngest son to Zhongcui Palace .Because the emperor has a new favorite, Zhongcui Palace is not as lively as before, and the nobles who live in the side hall often keep their doors closed.Wanning originally wanted to greet Concubine Hui, but Qing Dai came out and said that Concubine Hui was unwell and had already taken medicine and fell asleep, so she had no choice but to give up.

"Yesterday, the emperor came to visit the empress," Qingdai said to Wanning quickly when she saw no one around, "She said that the empress is not in good health, and she is afraid that the nobleman Xiang will not be able to take care of her after giving birth to the emperor's heir, so she has decided to take the child in the womb of the nobleman Report it to Concubine He to be raised."

Mrs. Xiang has been attached to Concubine Hui since she entered the palace. The sons and daughters born before were all raised by Concubine Hui. Although both children died young due to frailty, Mr. Xiang has no intention of betraying Concubine Hui on the face of it. the meaning of.This time the emperor came forward and said that he would take the son in the womb of nobleman Xiang to Concubine He. Was it pity that Concubine He had no children so far, or did he have doubts about Concubine Hui?

"I see, take good care of Concubine Hui." Wanning said softly, "If your lady wakes up, tell me that I have been here. I have prepared all these leather jewelry."

"Your servant understands." Qing Dai said again, "Earlier, Concubine Hui was thinking that she hadn't seen Prince Lian for a long time, please go back and tell me."

Wanning nodded and asked Hu Po to reward her with a pair of silver scorpions before going back to Changchun Palace to say goodbye to Concubine Liang, and took the leather hat that Concubine Liang had prepared for Yinhu and several children, and locked Changshou out of the palace.

What's rare is that Yinhu went to the Yamen early today, and Wanning was invited by Yinhu just after returning to the mansion.Seeing the seriousness on the face of the visitor, Wanning knew that something must have happened, first asked the wet nurse to take the youngest son away, and walked to the main courtyard without thinking about changing his clothes.
