The Young Lady of the General’s House - Chapter 27
Chapter Twenty Seven
Concubine Rui and Concubine Chen Biancon had another conversation, Concubine Chen Bian retired, leaving behind King Rui and Concubine Rui. After sending them out, King Rui said what Chengdi said today to Concubine Rui again. “What do you mean by the emperor brother?”
“No matter what the emperor said, just do it.” Princess Rui said softly, “When I reply to my letter, I will ask more about Jinyao Biancheng and Yongningbo. Don’t show up about this matter.”
“What the princess said is.” Rui Wang said, “but this Jin girl is also true, how can anyone directly manage people’s things.”
Princess Rui did not read Shen Jin’s letter to Shen Qi and the others. She didn’t quite understand it for a while, so King Rui gave a brief overview of the content of the letter, but saw that Princess Rui had red eyes and wept silently. King Rui was shocked. Asked, “What’s wrong with the princess?”
“The prince is too eccentric. They are all sisters. It is so blunt that you want something to be close. Is it possible to have to be like an outsider? I don’t know what the second girl will think, but Qi’er will definitely like it.” Princess Rui Wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, “Moreover, the prince only noticed that the girl Jin asked for something, but let’s see what she wanted. If it weren’t for the fact that the border town was really cold, where would she ask for easy-to-storage food?”
When Rui Wang was said by Princess Rui, he felt a little guilty and said, “I am the one who is at fault.”
“The prince, when I was besieged by the barbarian, the letter of the girl Jin’s request for help contained blood and tears, but… do you think she has the slightest complaint or crying today?” Princess Rui said, “If nothing else, the second girl is just a husband. When I got a little concubine, I came back crying and clamoring to let the prince take charge, but what about Jin girl? Can it add the slightest trouble to the prince? When Jin girl is in the mansion, she likes lightness, things are not delicate, rather hungry instead of importing. All I want now is something…” As if unable to speak, he lay on the table and started crying in a low voice.
King Rui also felt sour in his heart. Thinking about Shen Jin’s life in the border city, he was besieged by barbarians for so long, and suffered a lot, but he didn’t mention it in his heart. Instead, he did his best to prepare gifts for them and send them back. Full of tenderness, I also felt that Shen Zi was too noisy. The King Rui, who was soft-hearted and wanted to beat some second son-in-laws because of Xu side concubine’s plea, suddenly became determined again, “Don’t cry, prepare more things for Jin Mai. The palace just rewarded a lot of brocades, and sent some more. The Jin girl is alone in the border town, I am afraid that there is not even a close person.”
Princess Rui knew that sometimes it was too late. After listening to persuasion, she stopped crying, and she asked people to bring water to re-dress, but this time she didn’t even apply makeup, she only applied a layer of grease, and she came out and said, “It was me just now. Too…I just thought that girl Jin could not have enough to eat and dress, and she felt pain in her heart, wishing to suffer these sufferings for her.”
“I know you.” Rui Wang comforted.
Princess Rui said, “It’s really hard to come over there. If you don’t need to prepare more medicinal materials to send to Jinyao, as well as money, and there is no caring person by her side, it is inevitable that you will get more rewards.”
“Okay.” Rui Wang said everything at this time.
Princess Rui said slowly, “Didn’t the prince say that she was missing a treasure? Unexpectedly, if she was joking for a while, Jin girl remembered it. I read the letter and said that this is the saber of the barbarian leader, but Jin girl actually I didn’t dedicate the best to the sage, I just wanted to leave it to the prince… I don’t know if the sage will blame it.”
Wang Rui laughed at what Princess Rui said, “Don’t worry, Brother Huang is not so stingy.”
Princess Rui’s eyes flashed and didn’t say anything, just smiled softly.
After King Rui left, Cuixi exchanged the warm jujube tea for Princess Rui. Princess Rui took a few sips and put down the cup, took Cuixi into the inner room, “Find out my sandalwood box. “
Cuixi responded and went and turned over the box that Princess Rui asked for. Princess Rui opened it and took a look. It was full of silver bills. She looked down slightly and said, “When the time comes, hide this box in the rice and give it to Jin. Girl sent it.”
“Wang Concubine…” Cui Xi looked at Princess Rui with some surprise. This is all the savings of Princess Rui, which is a full 500,000 taels.
Concubine Rui did not say anything. I am afraid that King Rui did not know the family background in the mansion, and the money was not given to Shen Jin. That is why the fool of King Rui felt that Chengdi was generous. Thinking of the eldest son, Princess Rui closed her eyes. , Said, “Do as I say.”
“Yes.” Cui Xi didn’t say anything.
Cuixi helped Princess Rui to receive the gift form and said, “I’m afraid Concubine Xu will be making trouble again.”
Princess Rui chuckled, “This Jin girl.” The gifts were only given to King Rui, Princess Rui and Concubine Chen, but most of the gifts to Princess Rui were for her three children. It’s really love-hate, and I don’t want to give it to Concubine Xu Fang, but Princess Rui doesn’t feel that Shen Jin is stingy, but she feels a little more relieved, otherwise she would not give the silver in the name of Shen Jin. Send it, “But I also suffered from this child, and asked people to send the letter to Qi’er and the others. By the way, copy a copy of the gift list to her, and she will understand it naturally.”
Suffering in Princess Rui’s heart, Shen Jin, who only likes to eat light food, is working hard at this time. The fresh lamb is cooked in a soup pot. Even without dipping, it is especially delicious. Next to it is the chili sauce specially prepared by Fuzhong. .
Chu Xiuyuan ran outside during this period of time. It looked darker. A large chopsticks had the meat down. When it was cooked, he fished it out and ate it with his head down. He was also very hungry, but Chu Xiuming had an elegant posture, but his chopsticks It made it the same as a knife, and it was very accurate, and the meatballs were picked out by him as soon as they were cooked.
Shen Jin blushed and sweated on her nose. Not only did she like to eat the lamb inside, she also liked tofu, which was tender and slippery with a little chili, which was terribly delicious.
After eating the hot pot, I put some noodles in it, which was strong and delicious. After eating, Shen Jin sat in a chair, holding hawthorn tea in both hands, and said, “It’s still delicious here.”
“Didn’t it mean that there are many delicious foods in Beijing?” Chu Xiuyuan said with a round belly.
Shen Jin sighed, “Yeah, but I can’t eat it. Every time I eat according to the portion rule, I eat only those things. If I want to eat something fresh, I have to pay for it by myself. It’s not like here. Whatever you want, just a word.” She felt that this was the feeling of being in charge, it couldn’t be better!
“It’s pitiful.” Chu Xiuyuan sighed. “Sister-in-law still wants to eat anything even if I let the kitchen do it. Even if the Fuzhong didn’t talk to my eldest brother, I can find it for you.”
Shen Jin immediately looked at Chu Xiuming with anticipation in his eyes, “At that time, I heard my elder sister say that they had eaten roasted venison in the palace. The slices of venison were roasted on charcoal fire and served with sweet-scented osmanthus. …”
“Wait for this winter.” Chu Xiuming said.
Shen Jin was satisfied, and said with a smile, “My husband, you are so kind!”
“You have been in the mansion during this time,” Chu Xiuming said.
Shen Jin nodded and said, “Okay.”
Chu Xiuyuan will go out with his brother for a period of time tomorrow. Seeing that his brother and sister have something to say, he stood up and said, “I’ll go back first.”
Chu Xiuming nodded, Chu Xiuyuan and Shen Jin greeted them and left first. Chu Xiuming got up and said, “Go for a walk.”
“Okay.” Shen Jin stood up, looked at Chu Xiuming’s hand, put his own hand on it, and Chu Xiuming took Shen Jin out, but Mother Zhao and Anping did not follow.
“Little bit, I’m staying for you.” Chu Xiuming said.
Shen Jin said obediently, “Well, I just play with Xiao Budian and Little Bunny every day. Don’t worry, husband, I won’t run around.”
Chu Xiuming nodded, “The craftsmen have already arranged that they will come to the mansion during this time, so don’t come here. I will tell them not to go near your yard.”
“En.” Shen Jin responded, but didn’t ask when to repair the yard for her, thinking that he wanted to get there first while the two brothers Chu Xiuming were away.
Chu Xiuming left before dawn. When Shen Jin woke up, he was afraid that he had already walked a long way. Shen Jin used breakfast to see Xiao Budian and the rabbits first, and then asked, “Mother, you say Husband, will they be in danger?”
“No.” Madam Zhao smiled and comforted, “Madam, don’t worry.”
Shen Jin nodded, his eyes rolled and said, “Does the husband have any instructions?”
“What is the madam asking?” Madam Zhao asked with some doubts.
Shen Jin smiled and said, “For example, don’t let me go out of the house?”
Grandma Zhao smiled and said, “No, the general told everyone in the mansion to listen to his wife.”
Shen Jin was satisfied. After asking, she didn’t say anything. On the first day Chu Xiuming left, she obediently played with Rabbit for a while in Fuzhong, and then played with Xiaodian for a while. She woke up from a nap and asked Mother Zhao. Chu Xiuming and Chu Xiuyuan chose fabrics to make clothes for them.
It was still the same on the second day. By the early morning of the third day, Shen Jin got up early, then changed his clothes and went out with Anping. Many people in the border town knew Shen Jin and saw Shen Jin bringing Anping out. , Will say hello, and will give Shen Jin some home-made things to eat.
Chu Xiuming and Chu Xiuyuan are not in the house, and Shen Jin is the biggest one. He has forgotten what he promised Chu Xiuming and takes Anping everywhere with him every day.
And Mother Zhao didn’t know what she was up to lately, she just told An Ping a few words, she stopped taking care of it.
In fact, Shen Jin felt that the people in the mansion had been weird since Chu Xiuming left. They were very busy every day, but no one told Shen Jin, and Shen Jin didn’t ask too much, but looking at these people’s faces were beaming. Don’t worry about it.
What makes Shen Jin happy is that she has grown a lot taller since she came to the border town. A few days ago, Mother Zhao found out when she helped Shen Jin measure her size, and she also specially found Shen Jin’s clothes in Beijing to try on her skirts. Both are shorter.
Not only the height, but even the shirts that used to fit in the past are now tightly worn. The cloth pockets are all newly made after coming here. After all, Shen Jin asked people to put away those clothes in Beijing very early and wear more. The clothes were newly made after coming to the border town. The clothes styles in the border town were originally loose, so I didn’t notice it for a while. This spoiled Shen Jinxi.
Not many people knew about the departure of Chu Xiuming and Chu Xiuyuan. When Shen Jin played enough and thought of Chu Xiuming, they had been away for nearly a month. Where did they go and what did they do? People don’t know, I’m afraid only the housekeeper and Madam Zhao know.
