Chapter 1012: Borrowing Monthly Tickets)(1/2)
Here at Bei Wu Suo, Qi Fujin ate half a plate of watermelon and a handful of pumpkin seeds. Begonias and walnuts also came back.
"Sifujin is also here. The Crown Princess said that there are foreign guests, so it would be more appropriate to wear auspicious clothes..." Haitang said.
Walnut said: "The Crown Princess asked someone to pack two kinds of pastry, two bags are for Fujin, and two bags are for Qi Fujin..."
Qi Fujin directly said to Shu Shu: "Look what it is, I have been here for more than ten days and I have eaten up all the cakes I brought before."
Shu Shu told Walnut: "Just put it on the plate..."
The walnuts responded and went down to put them on a plate.
The two kinds of cakes presented to the princess are ham and bergamot cakes and red bean cold cakes.
One salty and one sweet.
Qi Fujin tasted it once and said: "This cold cake is delicious, but the ham cake is too dry to eat..."
After tasting the pastry, Qi Fujin got up and left.
Shu Shu personally sent it out.
Qi Fujin stopped at the door, looked at Shu Shu, and said: "I will send Haitang to tell her later. She didn't remember it. We remembered it. It's okay, but it's not good if we don't tell her...
"
It seems like it was done intentionally.
Shu Shu said: "You are not a child. If you insist on being nice to me and not to her, then you can do whatever you want."
Qi Fujin glanced at Walnut, who was following Shu Shu, and said, "Where's Xiao Chun? Isn't it a pity for such a good girl to stay in the Prince's Mansion to look after the house?"
Shu Shu was surprised, she really didn't expect Qi Fujin to ask about Xiao Chun.
She said truthfully: "I'm training the little girl, and I'm also preparing a wedding dress, and I'm busy..."
Qi Fujin said: "It's time to go out. I'll prepare some makeup for her later..."
Qi Fujin took Haitang away.
Shu Shu also realized why Qi Fujin asked this.
Qi Fujin is two years older than Shu Shu. She is twenty this year. The girl next to her is about the same age as her. It is time to make a choice whether to go out or have sex.
Although Haitang has the same name as Haitang from Eighth Prince's side, they have different personalities.
Yun Haitang is frivolous and arrogant, but this Haitang girl is law-abiding and looks very reliable. Qi Fujin also relies on her.
When Shu Shu returned to her room, she was somewhat silent.
For a housewife, she spends more time with her girl than her husband in her whole life.
It is reasonable to be reluctant to part with it, but whether it can be tolerated depends on the individual.
This is Qi Fujin's private matter, and there is no reason for her to interfere.
But when it came to Xiao Chun, Shu Shu thought of Xing Jiang who was currently in the security department.
Then, she glanced at Walnut and said, "Gao Bin hasn't been here for a while? Where are you busy?"
Walnut Luoluo said generously: "I'm going to Baoding Huangzhuang. I came here before leaving."
Brother Si was responsible for experimenting with growing corn and potatoes, and the scale was larger than expected.
In addition to several imperial estates in the suburbs of Beijing, several imperial estates in Baoding were also selected.
Shu Shu couldn't help but glance at Walnut's belly.
Gao Bin is not bad looking, and his walnut facial features are also pure. If these two people come together, can they give birth to a great beauty in the future...
Walnut was confused by what he saw. He lowered his head and looked at his clothes. There seemed to be nothing inappropriate about them.
Shu Shu gossiped for a while and went to the east wing to see Fengsheng...

Changchun Garden, Qingxi Bookstore.
The news that the ninth elder brother came here to check the room was also reported to the imperial court.
After Kangxi thought for a moment, he realized that Brother Jiu was trying to avoid being lazy, but he still said it so confidently.
He wanted to reprimand the traitor.
But when he thought of the filial watermelon in the garden dining room, he changed his mind and just said to Wei Zhu: "Brother Jiu is here..."
The Ministry of Internal Affairs has been in turmoil for the past half month, and Brother Ninth can be regarded as a mistake. He "governs by doing nothing" and relieves the tense atmosphere above and below.
I just asked him to resume his duties, not because he was lazy. Regarding how to take over the accounting department, I still need Brother Jiu to think of a way.
At this moment, the twelfth elder brother has arrived and has gone to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to check in.
Brother Jiu looked at him and said, "I didn't come over this morning. What's going on down there?"
The twelfth elder brother said: "They all came to inquire..."
Seeing that, I was very worried that Third Prince would make a comeback.
Knowing that Brother Jiu just went to Changchun Garden to check in, they felt more at ease.
Brother Jiu curled his lips and said: "Those who bully the weak are afraid of the strong, just because I have a good temper!"
The twelfth prince did not deny it.
It seems that the outside world really thinks so.
It is said that Ninth Brother looked sour when he looked at Ai, but during his three years as a junior in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he never really made things difficult for his subordinates.
As for the promotion of the children of relatives, it is also due to public spirit, but he has won the admiration and gratitude of many middle-class people.
But Third Brother, who usually smiles and speaks in a gentle and kind manner, but this method is too harsh.
Especially the incident with the Accounting Department, where he "dressed up as a white dragon fish" and went to Yufeng Building to make trouble, and that's what happened later...
The ninth elder brother looked at the twelfth elder brother and said, "Come back with me for lunch and ask your sister-in-law to add more food. We will go back in the afternoon."
The twelfth elder brother nodded and followed the ninth elder brother out.
Wei Zhu arrived just in time and said, "Master Jiu, the emperor's biography is here."
The ninth elder brother nodded and told the twelfth elder brother: "Then wait for me here, and you will be familiar with the general affairs here in the garden."
If it had been anyone else, he could have been sent directly to Beiwusuo. If it had been the twelfth brother, he would have been more considerate.
This younger brother is a thin-skinned person, so he might be too embarrassed to go there directly.
The twelfth elder brother nodded in agreement, watched the ninth elder brother leave, and then turned back.
Wei Zhu smiled and said: "Jiuye really looks like an elder brother..."
Brother Jiu proudly said: "There is nothing I can do. Who is the identity here? Before, I thought that I was the younger brother who was just above me. But when the little eighteen fell to the ground, I counted and reacted.
Come here, there are eight brothers at the top, but there are nine brothers behind me. I will be considered the older one in the future. I am so energetic. I can’t keep track of how many younger ones are behind me. I have to show off my appearance as a brother.
come out!"
Wei Zhu couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and said: "Master Jiu, you are good at math."
Brother Jiu glanced at him and said, "Why do you talk so old-fashioned? You are two years younger than me. In my heart, I treat you as half a younger brother."
Wei Zhu hurriedly bowed and said: "I don't dare, you old man, please be more restrained and talk about it!"
Brother Jiu patted his mouth and said: "Okay, I know the taboos, so I won't say it anymore. Just know it in your heart. I see that no one dares to bully you now. As for whether you will be promoted or not,
On the contrary, it is not important. You have to work hard to get the seniority. Liang Shuda was promoted after he defeated the previous eunuchs, but he is only the deputy general manager. If he wants to become the general manager, he has to work hard again..."
Wei Zhu is actually still young, only sixteen years old.
Therefore, even if he became a eunuch serving the emperor, he would still be classified as a junior eunuch.
Wei Zhu said: "I don't ask for that. It's already good as it is now."
He was just an orphan before and had to live in a temple to earn a living. Later, the temple collapsed and he was tricked by his relatives into purging himself and becoming a chamberlain.
Now that the relatives who had harmed him were not left behind, he felt at peace.
Brother Jiu nodded and said: "It's good to be content..."
The two of them talked in low voices and arrived outside Qingxi Bookstore.
Just then Ma Qi came out from the imperial palace.
"Teacher..." Brother Jiu saw this and hurriedly stepped forward to say hello: "I want to say hello to you..."
Although I know what the censor's impeachment is about, others don't.
After the 10th Prince went to flog the censor, it was not only the 10th Prince who was impeached by the Supervisory Council, but he himself was also not impeached.
They were all rejected by Ma Qi, and he also reprimanded the Inspectorate for fabricating charges out of thin air. Anyway, he defended his shortcomings very simply.
For this reason, the imperial censor impeached Ma Qi.
But Ma Qi didn't have to worry about the lice, so he just let them go.
Brother Ninth had already wanted to say thank you, but he was still in the "grounding", and the teachers and students didn't even see each other.
To be continued...
