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

Chapter 68

As soon as Yinzhen entered the main courtyard, Zhou Ting greeted her with her stomach: "Master, you must be tired today. I'm sitting in this room, and I can still hear the noise in front of me."

"I've said it many times, but you don't listen. You don't need to get up when you're heavy. Let the girls do it." Yinzhen untied the ornaments on his belt and threw them into the tray. Zhou Ting still twisted the towel for him and handed it over: " I've been sitting for a whole day, and I'm not tired from these few steps, what's new before today?"

Yinzhen wiped his face and threw the towel into the copper basin. He held Zhou Ting's hand and went into the room. Seeing that the kang had been covered with bamboo mats, he first asked, "Why do you use this in April? gone?"

"I don't know if it's getting hotter and hotter. I sweat all over when I move. I just sit on the thin mattress. I'll sit here." Pregnant women are afraid of the heat, and others are dressed in spring clothes. Can't wait to change into summer clothes.

"This bamboo one is no better than ivory. I remembered there were ivory pillows in the library, so why didn't you use that?" Yinzhen picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea: "All the lists are here with you, you can do whatever you want." Ask Su Peisheng to get it."

Zhou Ting pursed her lips: "I have an ivory mat in my dowry, but the size is not right now, and it would be too wasteful to cut it for use." She held the dowry list in her hand, and she was clear about what was on it, and now the list was getting longer and longer, except for the Kangxi rewards from Yinzhen, which were also listed on it.

"In the future, if you think of these things, ask someone to tell him," Yinzhen pinched a candied cream date and put it in his mouth: "You don't have to go back to me."

Standing outside, Su Peisheng lowered his head. This is the transfer of the private treasury to Fujin. Originally, the list is with her and the key is with Su Peisheng. Now it is clear that he has handed over the power of management to his wife.

As soon as Zhou Ting heard it, she knew that Yinzhen was happy today. When he was happy, he liked to give people things. His temper was probably the same as that of Kangxi. The ear bottle that was bestowed last time was actually from the Song Dynasty. Fei, if Yinzhen hadn't said to show it, she would really be afraid that the little girl might miss it.

As for his private treasury, she really doesn't want to get involved. A man should have some private money. Now he gives it happily, but later he regrets it. What should I do? Zhou Ting has heard female colleagues in the office complain more than once that her husband takes money very seriously. .Besides, there is no need to be so strict. With Su Peisheng here, if he wants to bring something out of the library to the little wife, she will know it without leaving the study.

Yinzhen is happy. Zhou Ting helped him organize a successful poetry meeting. Everything from the equipment to the route satisfied him. Yinzhen is not a person who indulges in pleasure, but he likes to enjoy it. Zhou Ting arranged everything It was just right, and it gained him impression points among the literati, so he naturally liked her in whatever way he liked.

Today at the banquet in Yinzhen, it can be regarded as a recollection. My wife said that I invited the eighth elder brother for the sake of harmony between the brothers, but the effect achieved was unexpected. With excellent calligraphy, Yinzhen forced Yinsi Lining up like an octopus crab, the branched characters are hard to read, and he enjoyed the complimenting eyes of these scribes, especially after they compared himself and Yinhu.

Yinzhen was the winner last time, he will win this time as well, but maybe there is no need to use such a tragic way, he will not forget those criticisms after he took office, it would be best if he could get more people to stand by his side Well, a celebrity can influence a party of literati, and if he does well at this time, the resistance in the future will be much less.

"I specially ordered to take out the pink celadon glazed lotus leaf pen that Khan Ama just gave you, did you see it?" Zhou Ting didn't talk about Yinzhen's private treasury, and turned the topic back to the poetry club "It's what the third sister-in-law said, they like to enjoy these things the most, but they didn't embarrass the master."

"The things that Khan Ama bestows are naturally good things." Yinzhen lay down next to Zhou Ting's stomach and asked her, "The third brother borrowed that and said he would return it after playing for two days. These two little things are naughty." ?”

"I can't be more obedient. My sisters-in-law say I'm very lucky. If you two don't make a fuss, you'll have peace of mind when you're born." Zhou Ting cast a slight glance at him: "I'm not a small thing now, I wish I could Ask someone to help you walk with your stomach in your hands." As her age grew older, she became more and more worried that Yinzhen would go to sleep with a concubine, and she thought of ten thousand countermeasures, but none of them worked, and Yinzhen didn't know why. What kind of wind is there, even when she can't eat meat, she is willing to stay with her to drink soup.

Hearing what she said, Yinzhen frowned, and put his hand over it: "Didn't I help you carry it?" It's becoming more and more inconvenient to do things as the moon gets older. It was a pleasure before, but now I'm afraid that she will be too hard , Yinzhen also thought about those convenient women in the yard, but since Mrs. Li is gone, Zhou Ting should arrange this matter. He doesn't want his wife to worry about these things, let alone he is now in the "three loves". stage, concubines and the like really didn't take it to heart.

Zhou Ting blushed when she heard this, stretched out her hand to pat him, and felt a little unsure about him. He would benefit from not going to the backyard, so she tried to figure out his hobbies more carefully, and tried to make him develop a home-like personality and put The main courtyard is in front of his nest, and it is considered to have achieved initial results, at least he is not in the study outside, but in the main courtyard.Reaching out to touch his back and gently rubbing it, this action is not so easy to do now, I gritted my teeth, if it really doesn't work, I have to resort to extreme means at extreme times.Zhou Ting patted him for a while and then asked, "Have you ever written a poem?"

Only then did Yinzhen show the poems of Lian to Zhou Ting. He felt that these poems were ordinary, but He Zhuo's calligraphy was very interesting.As soon as Zhou Ting took it, she saw that sentence, and her heart skipped a beat: "Why did you take this sentence out, it's so embarrassing."

"How could I say that you did it, I just said that I got it by accident." Today's women are more and more restrained, Li Qingzhao, Zhu Shuzhen and others are all things from previous dynasties. It doesn't matter to write poems, but as long as It can be spread in the boudoir, but if it spreads, it loses the dignity of a woman. Even those who are good at poetry and prose can only write a few sentences when they were young girls, such as San Fujin, she doesn't use much pen and ink now.

Zhou Ting is still worried, she is not the only one who travels through this world, what if someone overhears and finds out where she came from, she squeezes the paper slightly: "Is someone right?"

"It's all here, but I really don't have that artistic conception." Yinzhen looked at Zhou Ting's serious expression of looking at the poem notes in front of the glass lamp, and felt very fresh, and he could even discuss poetry with her.

"This sentence is from He Zhuo, this sentence is from Wang Shihong, and this sentence is from Wang Hao. He and He Zhuo were Jinshi in the same year." This person is a windfall for Yin Zhen, who now only sees practicality in people. It's not practical, Wang Bi was the one who crossed the river. Thinking of this, he smiled slightly, nodded and said, "This sentence belongs to the eighth brother."

Although Zhou Ting did not have much education in ancient poetry and prose, all she could remember were golden sentences that had been handed down for thousands of years. After reading them all, she said: "Left and right are nothing but these old words. It’s better that the river is as green as blue in spring.” Since I appreciate spring, I naturally write poems about spring, and there are two good lines in He Zhuo’s poem, and the others are very ordinary.

"How many more words can come out right?" Yinzhen was rarely in the mood to chat with his wife, and put his arms around Zhou Ting's shoulders: "You don't see anything?"

"I don't understand these things. I'm just used to your handwriting. I don't think it's as good as yours." This is not self-effacing, and it is definitely not good for her to criticize calligraphy, but she knows that Yinzhen's calligraphy is the master of Kangxi. Praise, it must be right to say that he wrote well.

Yinzhen laughed, everyone likes to be praised. Although Zhou Ting didn't get to the point, Yinzhen likes the straightforwardness. If you really want to ask her to talk about pen and ink, it's a classmate's axe: "Old Ba It’s too boring, I’ve studied with He Zhuo for so long, but I haven’t learned anything at all.” Brother Ba’s handwriting is actually not bad, but it depends on who he compares with, He Zhuo and Wang Shihong are all famous calligraphers in the world Well, the handwriting of those Qingkes is also very good, and his handwriting is particularly horrible when placed among these.

"It's a tough temper." Zhou Ting took a sip of the agate-flavored nectar. The sweetness and sweetness slightly relieved the heat, and she handed the cup to Yinzhen: "This is good, I will have a taste too."

"And you know he has a tough temper?" This evaluation was not wrong, Yin Zhen raised his eyebrows and drank it all in one gulp.

"It's just that his handwriting doesn't have any curves. Do you think it's hard or not?" Zhou Ting pointed to several curves. They are all round, but his is a right angle.After finishing speaking, she glanced at Yinzhen lightly. Zhou Ting's current fate is tied to Yinzhen. If he is not good, she will not be good. The eighth elder brother is not visible now, but he will be a strong competitor in the future. It is always right to pay attention at this time.

"It's not wrong." Yinzhen lay beside Zhou Ting, smelling the bursts of sweet nectar from her mouth, and couldn't help being moved. Zhou Ting knew and thought again when she looked into his eyes. Even hands can't satisfy him, do you really want her to use her mouth?
"My lord, the whole yard has turned off the lights, or else, let's turn off the lights too. Let's see again tomorrow, the candles are burning too much, and the mother in charge will grind her teeth again." Since Ju'er took back the poem, Niu Hulu didn't let go, and just stared at her. The light in her eyes scared the two girls away.

She didn't even eat two mouthfuls of the good food given by the banquet at dinner, seeing that they were the only room in the yard with the light on, Ju'er swallowed her saliva and took a step forward: "Master, let's see it tomorrow. "

Niu Hulu stuffed the piece of paper into the makeup box, locked it, and put the key into her purse. Ju'er couldn't help but twitch her mouth and look away, and she couldn't help but slander her for being petty. But he kept moving, the quilt had already been laid.

Tao'er and Ju'er kept vigil on the floor bunk. Niu Hulu went to bed but didn't lie down. He sat on the bed and stared at the top of the tent. She made a sound, this is a good thing that fell from the sky, it turns out that her marriage has always been there, it's just a different era.

Niu Hulu sighed, and Ju'er got up: "Master, do you want tea?"

"No need." She lay face down, and when she turned over, she could see the whole room. The toilet was on the other side. When it was hot, there was a smell. Niu Hulu bit her lip, and now she only owed one chance. She can then move to the main courtyard, step by step to become rich and powerful.
