Chapter 208: The Old Naughty Boy
Jiaxuan came over after they had breakfast, and she also wanted to learn something from her, but she always didn't pay much attention to Jiaxuan, which made her a little embarrassed and aggrieved, but she didn't say anything.
"Ming'er I'm going to enter the palace, the Queen Mother palace also wants me to help me look at the accounts or something, these things are these things at home, you follow to learn more, and help the elders. Mingya, you start to show your grandmother the accounts, grandmother is old and her dowry needs to be taken care of, you can help. Jiazhen Jiaxuan followed my mother's school director, listened to my mother's dispatch, and first did some unimportant work to practice her hands. ”
"Yes."
After arranging Mingzhu, she went to the old lady's house in the main hall, and Jiaxuan and a few people also went with her, Mingya deliberately took a few wrong steps on the road, and dragged Jiaxuan and whispered: "Sister, you stop the shop, the eldest sister is angry, this time it is very strict." My sister said that if anyone damaged the reputation of the family, she would be allowed to die violently, and she would die a death in the province. My sister didn't mention you, don't do it, you are indispensable in the family, even your grandmother can't grieve you, the girl's family really didn't do this, it was only the little women who became relatives who started to open it. ”
Jia Xuan looked at Ming Ya in surprise, with an incredible look in her eyes, as if she was saying that I was doing something big and wanted me to die.
Tears flashed with tears, not only grievances but sadness, and I felt a little sad for a while.
"Sister, there is no boudoir lady in any family to do business, this is a very shameful and lowly thing. My sister has never done business, it's my aunt who takes care of the business, and my sister just came up with a recipe, don't make a mistake. Mingya persuaded a little anxiously, intending to persuade Jiaxuan.
Jia Xuan thought about it for a while, and sighed a little dejectedly, "I know." ”
"Don't you think about it, haven't you noticed that your grandmother has been ignoring you lately?"
Jia Xuan tilted her head and thought about it, and suddenly remembered that the attitude of the people in the main courtyard seemed to be a little colder recently, but she was busy dealing with business and didn't notice this.
Once again, Jiaxuan felt that she was out of place here, was there anything to be despised about doing business? The people here are so outdated.
Ming Ya saw the disapproving look in Jia Xuan's eyes, sighed and didn't say anything more. It's just a matter of sisterhood, no more. She can't because the second sister disobeyed the will of the eldest sister, in the end she and the eldest sister are the closest.
Mingzhu didn't pay attention to Jiaxuan, and got close to the elders for a day. The next day, he entered the palace in a carriage.
The New Year is very busy, and as the queen mother, she can't be easy and leisurely, Mingzhu wants to go into the palace to help the queen mother look at the account book and take care of trivial affairs, so that the queen mother can be more relaxed, after all, she is old. The energy can't keep up.
Seeing Mingzhu coming back, the Queen Mother was very happy, and beckoned again and again, "Obediently, I prepared the things to take away in the spring, and they showed me the list. Do you have anything to say? ”
"The beginning of spring is not too hot, and the temperature is still okay on the way to the cold spring, so bring more side dishes and pickles. You can eat it on the road, and then bring some dried vegetables, in case the vegetables are bad, there are dried vegetables and bacon to cook, and you can't all point to the same thing to live. The bacon made of pork eaten by the farmer is also very good, although it is very vulgar, I have eaten it in the Zhuangzi, it tastes very good, and it is easy to preserve, it is not bad for several years, and it is better to store it than fresh meat. Mingzhu thought about it.
The Queen Mother clapped her hands and smiled happily. "Look, I forgot, in fact, pork is delicious, but that stuff is eaten by people, and I don't eat it often. This time, let Zhao Gonggong go to buy it, the people in the Internal Affairs Office don't dare to give me this food, and I have to make a fuss, so it's better for us to buy it ourselves and make it ourselves. ”
"Well, there are quite a few recipes for pork. The farmer's family kills New Year's pigs for the New Year, and all kinds of dishes are beautiful. It's drooling just thinking about it. Let's go and see it later, shall we? "Mingzhu rarely eats peasant meals.
There is only Jinhua ham in the court, and the bacon of the peasant family is not entered, and it is too ugly and I don't know if the masters can adapt to it, not everything can enter the court.
"Okay, bring some ham or something, and keep it for us to make some small stoves on the road." The Queen Mother smiled happily.
"Okay. Bring bamboo hearts, we have everything we want to eat. Mingzhu smiled.
"Is there any interesting news in the palace lately?" Mingzhu asked casually.
"It's nothing, the emperor has been running very diligently to Concubine Shu recently, Concubine Shu is not as lazy as in the past, but has become gentle and agile, and the four princes have been praised several times, but this child is stable, no different from before." The Queen Mother chuckled lightly, seemingly satisfied.
"Oh, that's a good thing. How did I hear that the third prince was sick? Mingzhu glanced at the Queen Mother suspiciously.
The Queen Mother smiled, "It's sick, it was just a little cold, I don't know who added something to his meal that is compatible with medicinal herbs, and it has been bad for him to start to be weak, if it weren't for the concubine to take care of it personally, he changed all the things inside and outside, and then found out the reason, I'm afraid that the third prince is going to drink tea with Lord Yama." ”
"Oh, what a coincidence?" Mingzhu touched her chin and thought.
"It may be King Duan or someone from the Chen family, how long do you think he can hide what he did? It's so easy to pick up a bargain for nothing. also gave him a lesson, I don't know how thick the sky is, since I have done it, I am ready to be discovered. The Queen Mother sneered.
"Then you are still willing to take Zhou Ying?" Mingzhu also laughed, the life or death of the three princes has nothing to do with her, don't look at the usual play is very good, in fact, when it comes to the critical time, everyone is fine.
"I brought her to restrain the concubine, so that she wouldn't have a bad idea, and it was also to warn those people, don't think that the mourning family doesn't know anything." The corners of the Queen Mother's mouth lifted lightly, revealing a sneering smile.
"As long as you are happy, don't force yourself for anyone, the four princes can come to greet you recently." Mingzhu asked.
"I've been here, but I've come after class in the afternoon, sometimes the mourning family deliberately doesn't see, he asked for peace and left, and he came three or four times, this child is a stable child, and he doesn't often come to disturb the mourning family."
"Where's Shuyi?"
"Oh, there is another interesting thing about her, that day Shuyi asked the mourning family at noon as usual, and your Mama Li saw that I had just fallen asleep and was not very happy that Shuyi disturbed, so she didn't report me inside, but sat at the door of the inner hall and waited. It just so happened that the fourth prince was entrusted by Concubine Shu to come over to send some fruits, and when she saw Shuyi, she reprimanded her a few words, saying that she didn't understand the hard work of the old man, why did she always like to come to ask for peace at noon, did the imperial grandmother see you or not? It's really not good to use reputation to coerce others like this, and she directly ordered her not to ask for peace at noon in the future, if she doesn't have time, don't come over, please be safe for filial piety, not for others to see, and let the imperial grandmother follow you to suffer. After saying that, he put down the fruit and left. ”
The Queen Mother laughed, looking quite relieved, this bear child is too good at pinching people's handles and blocking people's embarrassment, which is really unlikeable. (To be continued.) )
