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

Chapter 57

Everyone in the Nala family knew about the promotion of Sashku within two days. Zhou Ting didn't hear anything about it. She didn't know the whole story until she received the gift from her natal family and asked the servant who gave the gift carefully.

Aunt Wusu narrowed her eyes with a smile, Pearl and others who were close to her that day also had smiles on their faces, but Zhou Ting was a little uneasy. Did the people from La's family ask Yinzhen again?Or was what they said that day was revealed to him?
She muttered in her heart and smiled at her elder sister-in-law Xilinjueluo who came this time: "It turns out that this child made progress on his own, otherwise our master would not open his mouth based on what I said."

The transfer order will not come until later in the year, and the guard office first let him know that as soon as Ergenjue Luoduo's gift was delivered, Xilin Jueluo came to the door. Compared with Ergenjueluo, she was the same as that Lashi is much closer. It turns out that this aunt is the most upright person, and she doesn't know how to be flexible at all. When someone asks her, she either shakes her head and refuses, or she can't make up her mind. This time, she just helped so much. Everyone in the Nala family came alive.

Xilinjue Luoshi forced a smile on her face. After the family was shocked, they all wanted to take advantage of Zhou Ting's pregnancy to bring the relationship closer. There are more than three full moons. It's an opportunity. Originally, she also wanted to follow the path and didn't want to do too much. I was anxious so as not to look ugly, but there was really nothing I could do.

"I know that my aunt has everything here, but this satin is a new pattern from the south. I am too old to wear this garnet red, and your nieces are children, so they can't hold back such a pattern." Xilin Jueluo Talking and doing things are three-point close, and asking for help seems like visiting relatives. This comparison makes Zhou Ting understand why the original Nala likes her more.

"My lord just brought this peacock-patterned brocade. I don't like the color very much. It's blue with crab shells. That's why I said it. My sister-in-law gave it to anyone who doesn't wear red during the New Year's Eve. It can be seen that it hurts me." Of course Zhou Ting is more willing to get close to the head wife, and she is much more useful than the third wife when she goes back to talk.

"This is just right," Pearl said with a smile while serving tea, "I made this into a skirt, and it fits well with the white fox fur my master brought me."

"I can only wear new clothes for these two months. When I show my bosom, I can't wear them." Zhou Ting smiled slightly, and went through the situation of Xilin Jueluo in her heart. , must have something to ask for: "I remember that my little niece is about to marry when she is too old, why don't you keep it as a dowry for her." The elder brothers are twice her age. He would go directly to Yinzhen instead of talking to her, it could only be about the child.

"I came here just for her. Seeing that the Chinese New Year is coming, it's going to be a big pick. The family's intention is to ask her to put down the sign, but I haven't been able to open my mouth to you."

Zhou Ting just woke up from her afternoon nap, her face was still flushed, Xilin Jue Luo could tell from the look on her face that she was enjoying a good life, not only did she behave differently, but even the expression on her face was not the same as before, so she opened her mouth after thinking about it : "Your brother has already taken care of that girl."

She still has some impressions of that little girl, but she only remembers that the family has put a lot of effort into her upbringing, and she must have great hopes. Prince Fujin doesn't have to think about it anymore. He can refer to the clan anyway. This is why he begged for a sign What?
Zhou Ting pondered for a while, then pointed to the teacup on the table: "Sister-in-law tasted this tea, she just got it, I can't eat these now, I remember my brother likes it, I will pack a bag and take it home later." After a meal Only then did he open his mouth again: "There is no reason why we will marry in private if the masters don't choose them. Our family has a good family background, so the girl will not be second-guessed. I can't guarantee which clan will be chosen. This is What is the meaning at home? Or is it because my sister-in-law doesn’t want her daughter to suffer that hardship.”

"Let me tell you the truth, you are not an outsider, and you can't be regarded as a family scandal." Xilin Jueluo took out a veil and pressed her eyes: "I didn't get her until I was 30 years old. Who knew it was my destiny?" Injustice, this child kowtowed her head in the garden last year. Although she was rescued, she has been forgotten since then. I can’t remember it firmly, it’s like a different person from the past, we just now..." Xilin Jueluo’s eye circles were red: "If we don’t put it there according to our surnames, then we can ask for a sign."

"How did this come about? You can be exempted from the election even if you report a disease, why do you have to put down the brand? Maybe it will be good to raise her, she is not very old, and it is time to wait another three years." Zhou Ting thought in her heart I vaguely felt that another fellow from my hometown might have come, but I couldn't say that, so I had to ask again: "But I'm afraid I have to choose again? I can talk to our master about this."

"It's because she doesn't want to. She insists on going to the draft. I don't know why she is so high-minded. She can't talk to her after everything she has said. If she is suppressed, as long as she is afraid of trouble, it will be my biological daughter. I was born by a slave, how could I bother with this?" Xilin Jueluo's tears flowed down: "Besides, she still has cousins, if something happens to me, how can I feel sorry for your second sister-in-law and third sister-in-law? .”

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, I've figured this out in my mind. It's just a formality to trick the child and tell her to die. It's just that the palace is no better than home. If you stay here, something will happen. Our family is even more damaged." I still don't know how to tell Concubine De that a girl in the family has been fooled?No, I have to find a reason...

"I don't know how popular she is?" In the end, the re-election depends on talent, and good looks don't matter.

As soon as Xilinjueluo asked this question, he blushed: "I have hired a master from Yangzhou to teach for so many years, and I have made a little money. I kowtow and refuse to touch these things. It turns out that I can get it. "The truth made my mouth dry, but I just refused to touch the needle and thread. I was well-behaved for 11 years before, how did it become like this, and tears rolled down again thinking about it like this.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, I can still handle this matter, but if there is an errand in the palace, the master above will watch." Zhou Ting motioned her to go back and explain it carefully: "Sister-in-law told my niece that the master in the palace liked it." Well behaved girl, if you want to have a good future, tell her to restrain herself."

The first time I troubled Zhou Ting was to ask for such a shameless thing. The two couples really had nothing to do, and their own daughter couldn't be cruel. She had tried copying books while hungry, and for some reason she was determined to go to the draft. , I wanted to invite a shaman to collect the soul, but my family disagreed with life and death. If I invited it, the girls in the family would not have to marry.

Zhou Ting sent Xilin Jueluo away and went through all the maids who served in the house that day. Those who were close to her that day were all close to her, but there will always be one among the maids who can't keep their mouths firmly, and it is inevitable that they will have nothing to say. It spread to Yinzhen's ears. After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't figure it out. He felt that Yinzhen did it on purpose. He had helped Li's father beg for an official. Maybe this was a way for him to express his love and importance. .

But how could it be such a coincidence that it was Sashku?She also doesn't remember who went in and out that day, could it be that Yinzhen arranged people by her side?Zhou Ting was taken aback by this discovery, but since Yinzhen did it right away, he probably didn't intend to hide it from her in the first place, so he released him to... protect her?

Li Shi's hands are really not clean!Zhou Ting came to a conclusion like this, if Honghui died of illness without any human reason, then how could Yinzhen put eyeliner in?I'm afraid not only her here, but Li's has more.

Zhou Ting tightened her clothes, Pearl hurriedly changed the charcoal in the filigree hand stove, she waved her hand, she would not use this unless she was out of the house, even the best charcoal has carbon monoxide, it is not good to inhale too much .Hiding her hand in the muff, Zhenzhu frowned first: "Master, since she was pregnant, she no longer smells charcoal. This is already the best silver frost charcoal, so it's still useless. How good that is."

"I remember that the original master had a pair of sheepskin gloves for pinching gold and digging clouds. I haven't used it very much. I will find it out and use it first. I will ask the needleworker to make a few more to replace it." Agate recalled turning over from the box Come out: "I thought I wouldn't need it anymore."

Turn it out and take it to see that it is very delicately made, and the patterns on the sheepskin have been embroidered with great effort. Zhou Ting took a look and threw it away: "I can use this anywhere."

Fei Cui said: "Why don't you ask the craftsman below to bring a smaller Tang Pozi, won't the hot water make it tasteless?"

"That's right, I'll explain and do it."

Just as Pearl was about to go out, she was stopped by Zhou Ting: "You stop by to see Niuhulu Gege, and see how meticulously her maids are serving her."

Zhou Ting twirled the twisted jade bracelet in her hand. The selection process was big or small. She had to divide her energy to choose an honest one to enter, and also to see that her niece in name did not commit any crimes. Fortunately, the rules in the palace were strict, and each door She is not afraid that she will meet some elder brother by chance like Chugege Niuhulugege.

The Imperial Garden is not something that beautiful women can enter whenever they want. It is really a headache to think about it. It is better to take the initiative to take the initiative than to sit on the defensive. Zhou Ting stood up and asked, "Where is the master?"

"Outside study."

"It's ready, do you have any new dim sum? I want salty ones." Yinzhen prefers to eat sweet things, but he has a picky mouth. At this point in the afternoon, he prefers to eat salty things.

"There are goose meat buns that the master said he wanted to eat yesterday, and there are small crystal winter melon dumplings." Biyu pursed her lips: "The winter melon filling is mixed with small shrimps, which is very sweet."

"Pick up that red-bottomed food box, and Agate will change my clothes, let's go to the front." Yinzhen has been resting in the study for the past two days. Rest, counting the days now and it's almost too late for him to bear it, so I just use this as a topic to draw him over.

The little eunuch saw the girl coming with a big oil umbrella from a distance and reported it inside. Su Peisheng raised his eyes and saw Zhou Ting came and quickly reported it: "Master, Fujin is here."

Yinzhen is drinking tea and reading a book. He has become more and more leisure these days. Except for the errands he leads, he doesn't get involved any more. It is useless to show his talents now. It's better to stand back and watch the boss fight with the second. A good fisherman reaps the benefits. Hearing that Zhou Ting is coming, he nods to Su Peisheng.

Su Peisheng turned around and saluted Zhou Ting. Zhou Ting smiled at him. The two little girls behind Biyu were still carrying big food boxes. Xiao Zhang and Zheng Zi looked at each other and grinned. They ate Zhou Ting every day these days. Stomachs are rounded by the delivery from the little kitchen.

"The road is hard to go. If you have anything to do, just ask someone to come and tell you. Why come here in person." Yinzhen put down the book and pulled Zhou Ting onto the kang. Biyu offered a snack box and took out a small steamer from inside. Open to a burst of heat.

"It's a habit to eat your snacks every day. I'm really hungry now."

"The cook I picked for you, of course I want you to try her handicraft." Zhou Ting took the ebony ivory chopsticks, picked one up and put it in a fine porcelain plate: "Try it quickly, try this stuffing."

The steamed dumplings are the size of a finger, and there are only three in a cage. Yinzhen finished eating them very quickly. Zhou Ting watched with a smile all the time, and then she said: "My natal sister-in-law came here just now, and she said that it will be in the next year. Big challenge, I would like to ask if there are any descendants of the clan who want to marry this time?"

"Why, which one did they fall in love with?" Yinzhen knew in his heart that he would ascend to the throne, and Nala's family was also the queen's natal family, so it was normal to ask for favor during the draft.

"How can we get along? I want to know what's the meaning of the above. My elder brother and sister-in-law mean that the family has already left me, and there will be no more grace. Why don't we just put down the sign and get married on our own."

"This time it's probably for the sake of the fifteen prime ministers. Your family won't be able to produce another Fujin, so you can marry yourself." It's really no match for the Shi family, Yinzhen didn't think it was a big deal, so he nodded and agreed: "You can just talk to Er Niang." After finishing speaking, he pondered for a while: "Your natal family has a good friend, do you need me to help you?" Take a look." Using marriage to connect relationships is a common method used by Khan Ama.

"When I ask my brother and sister-in-law, maybe I already have a score." He said this, but he made up his mind not to let Yinzhen be the matchmaker. Maybe what this fellow countryman thinks in his heart.
