Leisurely Four Fortunes

Chapter 56

The draft is a huge project, just after February, and before the clan mansion is ready, Kangxi has already taken his sons to visit Jidian.As for the drafting, the full authority was given to Concubine Hui Hui, and the three concubines Hui, Rong, and Yi jointly assisted.

Concubine Yi, who had been closed for several years, reappeared in everyone's sight.In Jingren Palace, Xiaoyi accompanied Concubine Cuihui all the way back, and the concubine was holding Zhiyao in her arms.

"Gemma."

The two-year-old Zhiyao's small face has fully grown. Her appearance combines all the advantages of Xiaoyi and Yinzhen, plus she has a quiet and well-behaved temperament. She is a very lovable little girl.

"Yao'er is so good, Guima will peel melon seeds for you to eat."

Concubine Huihui peeled off a melon seed and put it on the table, Zhiyao picked it up with her tiny hands, and walked up to her with small steps, "Eat it, Mamma."

"So sensible!"

Concubine Huihui ate it with her little hands, and the smile on her face was even wider.Zhiyao took another one and handed it to Xiaoyi, "Emiang eats too."

Xiaoyi swallowed it, and the little girl took one and put it in her mouth, "It's delicious."

"This girl is so sweet and cute, how does Xiaoyi usually teach her?"

"I don't know either. No one in Elder Brother's Institute taught her. You also know the temper of me and fourth master. I don't know who this girl is following."

"Well, she looks like a person."

Xiaoyi was a little curious, "Who is the imperial concubine talking about?"

"It's my older sister. Although I don't see her much, her personality is just like Zhiyao's. She always cares about everyone. Looking at it this way, she still looks a little like her."

Xiaoyi suddenly realized that it was Empress Xiaoyiren.In her past and present lives, she had never seen Empress Xiao Yiren in person.But after the big wedding, when she and Yinzhen went to Kunning Palace to worship, she saw the portrait from afar.At such a glance, Yao'er's eyebrows and eyes really look alike.

"However, Yao'er is the great-granddaughter of the Empress, so there is nothing wrong with her resemblance."

Concubine Huihui walked over, and took a booklet casually, "This is a beautiful girl reported by the clan's mansion, and I don't think there are any suitable for the fourth child."

Having said all this, Xiaoyi still doesn't understand.Wu Yashi has been bedridden with illness for the past two years, and she will definitely not be able to get in this draft.Kangxi went to visit Jidian again at this time, and the affairs of their courtyard in this draft can basically be decided by the imperial concubine.

"Thank you, Ma'am."

"Thank you, you young couples, I won't do such things that hurt others and benefit myself."

Although the imperial concubine said so, Xiaoyi still accepted her love.Although the Song family and the Guo family in the backyard can't make big waves, they have been making small moves in the past two years.Especially yesterday, although she didn't pay attention to her, but now that she has Yao'er, one more woman will be more dangerous.

"Come and help me sort out the names of these people, such beautiful women, I have been dizzy for the past two days."

"My dear concubine, is this inappropriate?"

Xiaoyi looked at the thick roster, although it was all on the surface, but it was really not something that Prince Fujin could manage.

"You, you are just too careful. I don't have so many taboos here."

Concubine Hui Hui put the booklet on the table and opened it directly.Zhiyao threw herself on the table curiously, asking this and that.

"This is a character, the character your thirteenth uncle taught you to know."

The little girl nodded, she didn't know any of these tadpoles, but Uncle Thirteen attracted her attention, "Yes, Uncle Thirteen, yes."

"Don't be expensive, Mam?"

"If you want Mam, you want Uncle Thirteen."

"Little clever ghost."

Concubine Huihui teased Zhiyao, Xiaoyi scanned the list, and all the familiar names from previous lives were on it.Among them, Shi Wenbing's daughter, the Guerjia family, is impressively in the first place in Zhengbai Banner.

"Xiaoyi, look at this, it's pretty good."

That's right, Xiaoyi has always admired the princess in her previous life, and it's really not easy to be as comprehensive as she is.Nodding her head and sweeping her eyes, she saw another Guerjia family, Gege from the Shuose family, governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, and also the favorite side Fujin of the fifth elder brother in the previous life.

"Your mother, this princess looks good too."

Since Zhiyao was born, she and Ting Fangshuying often get together to play leaf cards, and the friendship between the three is much better than in the previous life.This Guerjia family is really better than Shuying in everything. If she enters the mansion, then Shuying will definitely have to repeat the mistakes of her previous life.But the Guerjia family, as the prostitute of the family of the feudal official, had to be a concubine, and she was not comfortable in her previous life.

Thinking of these two people, Xiaoyi sighed in her heart, and said it out of the way.

"Oh, I really didn't notice, this Guerjia family is indeed first-class."

After saying a few words, pointing out the powerful background behind the Guerjia family, Xiaoyi returned to elder brother's office.As soon as he entered the door, Chuan Sheng was anxious.

"What's going on here?"

"Master, Master Guo and Master Song are arguing."

Xiaoyi knew it well, and walked a few steps to the back room, and sure enough, the two were blushing and neck thick from arguing, and they didn't have the usual sisterly affection at all.

"What's going on here?"

"Also ask Fujin to be the master of the slaves, Sister Song is in charge of our clothes, and even distributed them to my concubine."

Mrs. Guo pulled a piece of satin, and sure enough there was a seam at the corner, if you don't check carefully, you might not be able to see it.

"Sister Song, what's going on?"

"Fu Jin, the servant girl doesn't know at all. Fujin also knows that the servant girl is always close to Sister Feng to choose first. This time, thinking that she prefers the pink, I sent it directly. The servant girl kept the dark blue one."

Song's face was aggrieved, and Xiaoyi's face was stern, but she had a plan in her heart.In the past two years, the two have used many tricks, not to mention encounters in the garden or something, and soup delivery in the study also happened from time to time.But they met the fourth master who had two lifetimes of experience. No matter what means, the fourth master would go to the back room five days a month without any delay.

When fourth master was around, the two didn't dare to act rashly.A few days ago he just left with the big army, and they tried to bribe the people around Yao'er.It's not easy for her to deal with it directly without fourth master's absence, so she can only let them mess up first.

"Okay, you should protect the reputation of our elder brother's office when you are away. Under the blue sky and broad daylight, what does it look like to quarrel like this. Mrs. Guo, you say Mrs. Song's handling of things is unfair, then you two should change your errands. From today From now on, Mrs. Guo is in charge of the distribution of things in the back room, and Mrs. Song looks after the inside and outside of the back."

"Fujin..."

Both of them had expressions of reluctance, Xiaoyi said "En", and they closed their mouths knowingly.

"I've always believed in you two, how about this, take a piece of material from me and give it to Sister Guo, let's leave it as it is today. If something happens in the future, don't cry anymore."

"Thank you Fujin for the reward."

Xiaoyi turned around and went back to the main room. Nanny Wu took Zhiyao and was feeding her milk.Xiaoyi rubbed her temples, and she finally understood that the women in the backyard have never been safe.

"Master, this old slave has already asked. They just want to see Fourth Master doting on us, Da Gege."

"Well, no matter what the reason is, it's not okay to reach out to Yao'er. Mother, we all know what to do, right?"

Grandma Wu nodded, "Master, don't worry, Mrs. Guo is buying people around Mrs. Song, and our people will play by ear."

I hugged my daughter tiredly, and a newcomer was about to enter the palace.In this majestic Forbidden City, there is really no day to live in peace.The Song family and the Guo family are fine. If there are more people in the future, the situation will be more complicated.

"My mother."

Zhiyao stretched out her tender little hand, and Xiaoyi hugged her daughter tightly.For her sake, she must always be ready to nip any danger in the bud.

"Fourth sister-in-law, fourth sister-in-law."

Thirteen's voice came from a long distance away.Xiaoyi looked at the sun, and before she knew it, it was already lunch time, and it was time to go to the study and go to school.

Smoothing out the creases on her chest, she led Zhiyao, who was already eager, and walked out, just in time to meet Brother Thirteen who rushed in.Behind him, there is the fourteenth elder brother with an awkward face.

"My fourteenth brother and I came to see Yao'er."

"Thirteenth Uncle, Fourteenth Uncle."

Zhiyao called both of them, but she was on the right of Brother Thirteen, far away from Brother Fourteen on the left, "Uncle Thirteen, can you teach me how to read?"

"Okay, what do you want to learn, I know a lot of words! By the way, your fourteenth uncle has also enrolled, and he is also very good."

"I want Uncle Thirteen to teach me."

The hope ignited in Elder Fourteen's eyes died out, and he turned his head to ignore Zhiyao.Xiaoyi looked at Shisi in front of her. Compared with the previous life, he is much thinner now.Wu Ya's lingering sickness all the year round, even if he wanted to, he didn't have the energy to take care of him. Yinzhen's life has been very bad in the past two years.

It's just a six-year-old child, Xiaoyi suddenly had such a thought in her heart.He was only three or four years old back then, and after leaving Wu Ya's family in the past two years, his temperament has changed a lot.

Watching Zhiyao grow up day by day, now Xiaoyi's heart is getting softer and softer.Everyone is born with a pure heart like Zhiyao, like a piece of white paper.Although fourteen passed, she was taught many things she hated by Wu Yashi.But in the past two years, especially after entering school last year, his temperament has really changed a lot.In this palace, one more friend is better than one more enemy. The past life is over, why doesn't she try harder now?
"Zhiyao, let's play with your thirteenth and fourteenth uncles first, and Erniang will prepare your favorite food. Thirteenth and fourteenth brothers, let's eat at my sister-in-law's at noon."

"it is good!"

Yinxiang's eyes lit up, the snacks prepared by the fourth sister-in-law were delicious.Looking at Yinzhen who didn't look at him, he was anxious for a while, and tugged on his sleeve.

Children are always sensitive, and Yinzhen who left Wu Ya's family gradually became aware of it.He knew how much those words two years ago would hurt Sisao.And seeing his sister-in-law getting along with their respective mothers, he also had a little doubt about his mother's behavior.Although the fourth sister-in-law hadn't been affectionate to him in the past two years, he always got his share of the good things given to Shisan.

Without Wu Yashi's obstruction, Yinzhen's heart gradually turned around.Looking at the friendly fourth sister-in-law, he nodded, and then gave Thirteen a contemptuous look, "I know how to eat!"
