Twin Brocade

Chapter 493

For ladies like them, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are just ways to cultivate their sentiments.After marrying into her husband's family in the future, female celebrity cooking skills, managing the back house, human relationship, husband and child, these piles are the foundation of the foothold and the big things.

It is quite normal for Fang Jinhui to learn cooking skills at home.Fang Jinshu found this excuse very well.

Anyone who has a little contact with the Fang family knows how close their direct sisters are.My sister is sick, and I want to eat steamed dumplings made by my sister, which is only logical.

And this is Prince Qi's Mansion, Fang Jinhui can't be allowed to come here to do it, it will be cold when it is delivered.There is no better way than her going back.

In this way, the face of the two families was taken care of.

Fang Jinshu, who spoke like this, looked like Si Lansheng.Wei Yixin smiled and said, "I am also very envious of having such a good eldest sister." She turned to Xiao Yu and asked, "Have you packed all those things?"

Xiao Yu bent her knees and replied: "If you go back to the princess, you will put it in the carriage."

"Since the elder sister of the Fang family wants to go back, I can't follow my own temperament and keep my elder sister." She pouted and said with great reluctance: "I asked someone to pack a carload of gifts for you. Be sure to remember me. If you see me elsewhere, you can't ignore me."

Fang Jinshu quickly thanked her: "How dare my daughter accept gifts from the Princess? You are so kind to my daughter, you don't even know how to repay her. As long as you don't think your daughter is troublesome, how can you ignore her?"

"What I gave you is yours." Wei Yixin said: "Xiao Yu, pack up and put all the things used by Fang's sister in the car."

Fang Jinshu once again gave a half salute on the bed.

"Okay, I'm here, and you're always so polite." Wei Yixin said: "Take care of yourself slowly, I'll tell the concubine mother, you're still sick, so there's no need to go and say goodbye."

After Wei Yixin left, Si Lansheng breathed a sigh of relief and asked Yanxia to dress Fang Jinshu.Originally, the little maid sent by Prince Qi's mansion to serve Fang Jinshu was also in front of her, packing up Fang Jinshu's personal belongings according to Xiao Yu's order.

Because she was ill, Yanxia simply tied her hair together, wrapped it thickly inside and out.

Chun Yu came in from the outside. Although she was not qualified to serve Fang Jinshu right now, she knew what Fang Jinshu wanted to hear.She bent her knees and said, "Madam, Miss, Fang Zhi got up and is cleaning up, she has recovered a lot after drinking the medicine."

Fang Jinshu nodded and said, "I have someone here, so you follow Fang Zhi." Fang Zhi followed her and suffered this fright, so of course she had to take good care of her.

While tidying up, Princess Qi sent a maid to bring a brocade box, and said: "The princess knows that the fourth lady is going to leave, and she feels very sorry. I will give this box of pearls to the fourth lady to play with."

Yanxia took it and opened it, a box of dense precious light, pearls as bright as jade, full of brilliance, well-proportioned in size.Although they are not the high-quality Dongzhu and Nanzhu, but so many pearls of the same size are rare, and they are most suitable for a girl's family.

Fang Jinshu quickly thanked her, and Si Lansheng said, "The concubine is really caring."

She turned her head and said to Fang Jinshu: "Shu'er, pack it up first, and let Yanxia help you get into the carriage first. I'll say goodbye to the princess and thank you. I'll be here soon."

Since Princess Qi wanted to show her favor, she couldn't be rude.

When he returned to Fang's house, Fang Jinhui hadn't returned home from school.After Si Lansheng gave some good advice, Fang Jinshu went back to Cuiwei Courtyard to rest.

Fang Fei came up to meet her, her eyes were full of worry.

Ever since Chun Yu came back yesterday and said that the girl was sick, she couldn't let go of her heart.Now he saw Fang Jinshu's wounded hand, his pale complexion, and his eyes were ready to burst into tears.

She knelt down to salute: "Girl, you are back."

He stepped forward to support Fang Jinshu, lay down on the bed, and asked, "What would you like to eat, the maidservant will let the kitchen cook it."

Back at the familiar place, Fang Jinshu relaxed.Seeing that Fang Fei tidied up the room according to her habits, she said with a smile, "I won't have much appetite, I'll sleep for a while. When big sister comes back, call me."

"By the way, Fangxin is called Fangzhi now, please tell everyone, don't make a mistake." Fang Jinshu warned: "She is also sick, you should take care of her."

The prescription prescribed by the imperial physician has the effect of calming the nerves and helping sleep, which is beneficial to the recovery of the body.Fang Jinshu was very sleepy, but after returning home he felt at ease, and fell asleep shortly after lying down.

Fang Fei covered her with the quilt, put down the curtain, and walked out of the room lightly.

The news of Fang Jinshu's return from Prince Qi's mansion was known to everyone who cared about her.She had this illness, so naturally she couldn't hide it from everyone.

Princess Jing'an sent people to bring her nourishing fish maw, bird's nest and other medicinal materials; Jinghe asked Madam Tang to visit her sick, and brought her a word from the Jingyi nunnery to let her recover from her illness; Wei Sijie Someone sent a small and exquisite hand stove.

Chu Mo thought about it at home, wishing to fly to her immediately.But the marriage between the two families was still undecided, so he couldn't rush to the door. No matter how impatient he was, he could only wait for Fang Jinshu to recover from his illness.

The bruise around his eye sockets had healed up a lot, but it was still very obvious when he looked closely.It just so happened that he was also recovering from his injuries.I hope that when the two families meet to go to the Great Compassion Temple to pray for incense, he will be able to show his best side in front of her.

Fang Jinshu had never paid much attention to his appearance. At this moment, Chu Mo felt a little unconfident.

When Gao Lou and the others knew that Fang Jinshu had returned home, they all felt relieved.Although she didn't know exactly what happened to her, it was obviously not that easy to deal with.Otherwise, she wouldn't be so prepared.

In the following days, Fang Jinshu recuperated in peace.In the court hall, a major case broke out.

The money and food in the world are all settled by the Ministry of Accounts.After the annual autumn harvest, the state capitals and localities under the various roads will send people to the household department to report their income and expenditure accounts.All accounts must be completely consistent with the audit of the Ministry of Households before they can be settled, and they need to be stamped with the official seal of the original place to be considered complete.

However, during the review process, due to various reasons such as transportation, weather, and mildew on the road, and the long journey, there will always be various losses.As for the specific amount of this loss, local officials have no way to advance it in advance. Only when they go to the Ministry of Households and do an inventory before reporting can they know the difference.

Therefore, officials sent from the state capital to Beijing have prepared a blank booklet with the official seal in advance for use.

For the imperial court, the world's money and food is the most important thing, and it must be strictly supervised.But the loss on the road is a real thing, and it is absolutely impossible to transport the amount from the place to the same amount when it arrives in Beijing, and there is no error.

Therefore, the practice of "empty seal" has been used since the previous dynasty.

(Here, we refer to the empty seal case in the period of Ming Taizu, but the changes are quite large, so hereby explain.)
