It is not easy to be the fourth master's wife

Chapter 18

When the two got out of the car, Jingui Yingui, who was following behind, came forward and gave Zhou Ting a blessing. The girl in the car was very close, and there was no movement inside, so Zhou Ting waved her hand and smiled. The girl was more like her husband than her master. Be considerate with your wife: "Let's go, don't keep the empress dowagers and concubines waiting."

There were not many people in Ningshou Palace, Zhou Ting and Ba Fujin went in to say hello, holding hands. The Queen Mother's eyes were still good, and she was amused when she saw it: "After all, they are neighbors. You live near each other, and your relationship has improved."

"How can I say that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors? My fourth sister-in-law and I are both relatives and neighbors, so it should be good." As soon as Fujin entered the palace, he seemed to be a different person just like in the car, with a smile on the corner of his mouth. As soon as the concubine sat next to her, Zhou Ting naturally sat at De Concubine's place. De Concubine was still thinking about her grandson and came over to ask: "How is little elder brother?"

"I'm still taking medicine now, Da Gege seems to be getting better, and I was shocked again last night." Zhou Ting was willing to let Concubine De to get close to her, her mother-in-law liked her, and the future seat would be secure. She used to He is in the advertising business, so he naturally knows how to give himself points.

"We've also heard about what happened at night, why did the water go away?" Concubine De was just asking, and the Empress Dowager also asked.

In fact, there will not be more than three people in the whole palace who are really concerned about this matter, but I still have to ask again, and the eight blessings open their eyes openly and say nonsense: "It's cold, and the subordinates like to drink wine when they are watching the night." , There was a fire in the kitchen and no one knew about it, so it started. Fortunately, it was discovered not too late, and only two houses were burned down, and everyone was safe." No one said what it was for.

"The people below are hateful, as long as they are fine."

The Empress Dowager was just asking, Concubine Hui was also concerned about face, the eldest elder brother Ji Fujin had no sense of existence, but the Crown Princess said one more thing: "Since the punishment should be punished, don't let it go lightly, otherwise one will have two, call those The servant is afraid, so naturally he will not dare."

Zhou Ting glanced there, she usually didn't feel it, but now she heard that every word pointed out, it seems that no one is a virtuous person who puts everything on high and doesn't ask questions, and these dignified and generous people are forced out now.

San Fujin lived close to Nala in the palace, and the relationship has always been harmonious. At this time, he asked: "You two live close, is there any hindrance?"

"Our master heard the sound and rushed over to work in the middle of the night. He came back and said that it would not hinder me so he dared to close his eyes." Zhou Ting wanted to help Ba Fujin, but she didn't say it herself, and she couldn't open her mouth: "This time reminds me , when you go back, you should beat the subordinates and let the night watchmen do their best."

All the Fujins said yes, and even the Queen Mother gave a rare order: "You guys should also be dispatched. If the sky is dry and the things are dry, watch out for candles."

Concubine Yi quickly agreed first, then pointed at Bafujin and said with a smile: "Look at him, his eye circles are red now, he must have been frightened last night."

"Look at what my concubine said, am I that useless?"

The women in the room were all holding their handkerchiefs and laughing, Zhou Ting glanced over, the clothes were almost the same, the expression was the same, and even the angle of the smile was the same, these were almost the same among the Fujin, only the Ba Fujin was outstanding, no wonder all the men were more I like my little wife.

Finally parted, Concubine De took Zhou Ting's hand back to Yonghe Palace, when she passed the garden of Ningshou Palace, Concubine De stepped down and took a walk with Zhou Ting to see the scenery: "Look at it, it looks much better."

Zhou Ting was taken aback. The last time she entered the palace, Nala's feelings were still there. This time she entered the palace by herself. Although the rules are good and she looks the same as her sisters-in-law, people close to her can tell at a glance. She has changed.

"It should be like this, not to mention Wen Xian, even when the sixth child goes, I can't hold on." Concubine De walked to the edge of the crabapple bushes and stood still. Zhou Ting hurriedly followed, and the maids in the back were far away. Far.

"At that time, the fourth child was hugged outside. Although I couldn't see him every day, it was still a thought. You are better now, and you should think about giving birth to your own child." Concubine De was born as an official woman, and her starting point was not that of the Four Heavenly Kings. The other three are tall, but they are concubines who are forced to be concubines together. They have been favored for ten years. Their appearance is one aspect. Understanding Kangxi's heart is the real reason.

At this moment, she didn't think that her son could become the emperor, but she only wanted him to be liked and reused by Kangxi more, so she reached out and pinched a crabapple flower and rubbed it in her hand: "This flower, the leaves, and how fresh it is!" It’s all false, and it’s true that it bears fruit.”

Kangxi actually paid great attention to whether he had a son-in-law, and the prince suffered a loss because he didn't have his own mother to remind him, Kangxi had chosen a princess for so long, did he just choose a daughter-in-law?But he didn't get close to her in a daze, and now he doesn't have a single son after messing around.

People's hearts are fleshy. It turned out that Nala treated Concubine De close, and Concubine De naturally hoped for her son and daughter-in-law to be happy, so she threw the crushed flowers in her hand: "You are still young now, hurry up and have another one."

Zhou Ting took out the handkerchief to wipe off the flower juice on Concubine De's hands, and she had to say a few words when someone else passed the ladder: "I don't know what Er Niang said, but... our master is very emotional." With Mrs. Li, Mrs. Nala's official wife is like a third party. In the past, Mrs. Nala kept silent, so Zhou Ting didn't care about her face. If there is anything she can't say to Concubine De, it's better to let her know.

Concubine De took a rare look at her in surprise, then smiled suddenly, and became more intimate with Zhou Ting: "Don't you have any relationship with him anymore? This relationship is all from a relationship." Pulling her sleeves forward Two steps: "Although my son didn't grow up in front of me, he came out of my stomach. I don't know what kind of temperament he is. You talk to him more, and tell him no matter how trivial things are." Listen, you two are husband and wife, and after a long time, the relationship is more real than anything else." Kangxi still misses the first empress so much, could it be that he didn't have a woman before?

Zhou Ting squeaked and was speechless, she knew in her heart that Concubine De was right, but she couldn't really treat Yinzhen as her husband, so she just nodded shyly.Seeing this, Concubine De didn't say any more: "You are a smart boy, don't make mistakes."

Zhou Ting was stunned by what she said, so Lashi was just making a mistake. If it were her, she might be heartbroken, but she would never be so loveless.Even if I do my best for the sake of the child, I still have to pull my husband over. At that point, there is nothing I can't let go of decentness. The face is much more important than the face.

Neither of them sat down and walked all the way back to Yonghe Palace.Stepping on the bottom of the flowerpot, Zhou Ting still couldn't take it even though there was someone helping her beside her, but Concubine De seemed very relaxed. Seeing Zhou Ting looking at her, she smiled and said, "I used to walk in the past." She is healthier than other concubines, born Not to mention more children, the survival rate is also high, it seems that they still need to exercise.

When Zhou Ting was sitting and panting, Yinzhen came, and when he got off the court, he was asked by Kangxi once, and even Yinzhen was praised, and the voice of greeting when he came in was louder than usual: "Greetings to mother and concubine."

"Did you Khan Ama praise you?" Knowing son Mo Ruomu, Concubine De was sure, Zhou Ting smiled and covered her mouth with a handkerchief and stood next to Concubine De, Concubine De patted her hand and laughed: " This temperament is almost the same as when I was a child."

It's true that Yinzhen is closer to his adoptive mother, but it's not that he doesn't pay attention to his biological mother. He is thinking of Concubine De in his heart. Hearing her talk about his childhood aroused his admiration even more. When the maid served tea, He asked Zhou Ting: "What did you just say to the concubine mother?"

Zhou Ting pursed her lips and smiled: "Let's talk about my grandfather's childhood." After glancing at Concubine De, she passed on the words.

"Brothers have to go to the study room when they are six years old. Such a young person just refuses to admit defeat. When others practice ten big characters, he will practice twenty." De Concubine recalled her son's appearance when he was a child, and his eyes were full of motherly love. : "In summer, despite the ice, it is still hot. He hangs his hand to practice calligraphy, and the little eunuch next to him is waiting with a soft cloth. Once sweat drips down, he refuses to ask for that calligraphy again."

"It's no wonder our lord's name Khan Ama is praised." Zhou Ting glanced at Yinzhen, "It turns out that he has worked hard." He is so determined at only six years old, no wonder he is the one who finally achieves great things.

"No, my two sons both have such stubborn tempers, and so does Yinzhen. He will die when he draws his bow, and his shoulders will hurt at night just like the fourth child." Concubine De sighed: "No wonder they It is said that children are debts."

Yinzhen listened with her head down, it was rare for Concubine De to say a few words of heartfelt words to her son, and Zhou Ting was there to ease the atmosphere, and she kept asking questions, Concubine De had never spoken so many words to Yinzhen, she was very happy : "You should have another one, even if it's debt collection, it's interesting."

Yinzhen coughed and cleared his throat, thinking of the two times he endured going back at night, his whole body was hot and dry, Zhou Ting also blushed.Seeing that there was something she didn't understand, Concubine De was overjoyed, and just wanted to ask a few questions, but felt that her son was getting older, and getting close to her was not easy at all, so she shouldn't say these things, so she planned to ask Zhou Ting again when Zhou Ting was alone.

"If you have business to do, go ahead first. I'll talk to your wife, and I'll make dinner at my place at noon."

"Yes." Yinzhen could still say a few words in front of Zhou Ting, but he was a dull gourd in front of Concubine De, so he nodded at Zhou Ting and walked out with a promise.

Zhou Ting came out with a mop of her forehead, and the two talked about needlework, Concubine De intended to give her a hand, because she had a daughter-in-law who was close to her, and the relationship between mother and child could be closer.

"It's just because you're sick and still do these things." Concubine De waved her hand, and the maid came up to change the saucer, "I really have something to entrust to you, I have a nurse here who has been following me all the time, Now that she's getting old, I can't bear to ask her to be an errand, so let's send her out of the palace, and she has no relatives, so I thought, why don't I let her stay with you."

"What did Er Niang say, I can't answer you if you open your mouth." Zhou Ting agreed after being slightly taken aback, and she couldn't tolerate her not agreeing.

"She is the best at recuperating a woman's body. You can transfer two girls to learn cooking skills from her." This is the key point. No matter how stupid Zhou Ting is now, she understands the same sentence, asking her to have a baby.

"Xie Erniang for worrying about me." Zhou Ting felt very helpless, one or two of them were staring at her belly, she was not like Bafujin, who had nothing to do after so many years of marriage, and everyone no longer expected her belly up.

Nala's natal family once passed a message to send a nanny over, and even thought about sending a young girl in. Nala had a son at that time and didn't take it to heart. After his son died, he was even more blocked. He refused to agree in one breath, and even the nanny refused.

Sending a girl to Zhou Ting is not willing to agree, and it is too low to give her husband a concubine.The nanny is different, even if it is not of real use, it is good to recuperate the body. The concubine De is around forty years old, but she still looks young, Zhou Ting is still very excited.

"Since that's the case, give her two days to pack it up, and send it to your house when it's done."

Zhou Ting got up and thanked again, and when she went back, she told Ma Nao: "Mother Concubine is going to send a nun here, you move your room out, and first squeeze you together with Pearl, and I will give it to you during the Chinese New Year." You assign rooms." The two best servant rooms in the main courtyard were given to the eldest girl, since they were gifted by Concubine De, naturally they are more respected than girls.

"Who is this grandma?"

"It is said that it specializes in conditioning women's bodies." Zhou Ting was a little embarrassed.Manao happily agreed, and even pointed out two little girls to take care of Nanny Gu.

"Can the master have dinner?" Naturally, this point has been used when he came out of the palace. Pearl asked, and when she held Zhou Ting's hand and entered the main room, she whispered in her ear: "There are two seats in the south courtyard. The glass lamp goes in."

Zhou Ting frowned: "Can you see what kind of light it is?"

Pearl carefully looked at Zhou Ting's expression and saw that she didn't look angry before she dared to return: "One makeup lamp, one kang lamp."

Instead of being angry, Zhou Ting smiled, entered the warm pavilion and leaned on the kang: "The sherbet I drank last time was good, let me have another cup, and some snacks, the food in the palace is exquisite, but it is not as hot as the one at home. "As he spoke, he reached out and took a pomegranate and slowly peeled it in his hand. Pearl walked over and snatched it: "How can I use the master to do this."

Zhou Ting patted off the crumbs on her hands, and asked, "Has anyone entered the yard today?" How could Mrs. Li know about Kang Deng so quickly?Did she come to listen to the corner last night?Thinking of her inquiring about things in her house, Zhou Ting felt sick for a while.

"I have asked the woman who guards the door. No one from Da Ge Ge has ever gone out, and no one from Cie Fujin has come in." This is where Pearl is strange.

"It doesn't necessarily come out from our courtyard. Someone will see something so big when it's brought in." At this time, there will only be two maids in the room, Jasper and Jade, who are on duty and guard the door, and they cooperate with each other tacitly. .

Even so, how could she be so clear that it was the lamp!Zhou Ting's face was burning red and she gritted her teeth in her heart. She couldn't vomit and swallow like a fly. Don't underestimate the face of the ancients, who can do anything about sex.

The girl in the house is most one-hearted with her, and it is impossible to do something about switching to Li, but other people can't guarantee it. Li is now in charge, and it is hard to guarantee that there will be no shallow-sighted ones to sell well. Last night, the boss Anyone who waits in the yard can know that the lights in the house are always on.

"Order the servants from last night." Zhou Ting grabbed a handful of pearl-peeled pomegranates and ate them slowly with a handkerchief. The white silk was stained red by the juice. She squinted her eyes. People, others are rushing to provoke her, so don't blame her for being merciless.

It seems that the Nala family in the past made Li's life so easy. After suffering so many losses in the open and in the dark, he still didn't learn how to behave. Biyu came in to serve snacks and then left, Agate sat on the couch, Pearl stood and waited on Zhou Ting drank the sherbet, and Zhou Ting raised her eyebrows and smiled: "Just ask, can Fujin put the lamp on?"

"Hey." Manao took the order and left.

Since she is not good at learning anyway, why not slap her harder, it will take some effort for her to get up again and be disgusting.Zhou Ting was in a good mood, and stretched out her hand to take a closer look at her nails.

"My master hasn't put on the oil for a long time, why don't you change it today?"

Zhou Ting nodded, Zhuzhu quickly took out a set of tools, Zhou Ting was speechless, this is almost catching up with the nail shop, a closer look at the small bottle is really nail polish, but there are not so many colors, pointing A light red: "That's it."

"This looks better than impatiens juice." Did nail polish exist in ancient times?Zhou Ting felt a little strange when she saw the makeup tools. Nail art has only become popular in these years, so it doesn't make sense that there are now.

"How can anyone use that now? The color of Kou oil is brighter than that dyed with flower juice. I will use it all now." After the pearl was painted, Zhou Ting gently dried it with one hand: "Feng Ji, that couple really Knowing how to do business, it’s hard for them to figure out these bits and pieces.”

"Feng Ji did this too?" Zhou Ting asked curiously.

"Master forgot? I praised them before for their dedication to the master's work." Zhou Ting thought about it for a while, and there were many Feng characters in the ledger in Nala's hand. It turned out to be Feng Ji. Zhou Ting looked at the glass Deng looked at the full set of manicure equipment again, thinking to himself, could this be a fellow traveler?
