Chapter 51 Superfluous

 The cloth was given by Qi Yixiu.

 They are all brightly colored and beautiful fabrics.

This is probably a reward for Shen Chuliu to wear during the New Year.

 Of course, she had it before when she gave out gifts for the New Year, and she was not short of profit. This batch was always given by Qi Yixiu.

 This time, she was the only one with it.

 This is naturally a dead end.

 Then before the fifteenth day, the concubines meet their parents' families. Of course, not everyone can see this. Only the ninth concubine has this honor.

Now that they have given this small favor, if Shen Chuliu can still be grateful, it will really cost her two lifetimes.

 Unless you are not favored and have a low status, then forget it.

 Yifei Yi and Song Zhaoyi were both worried. If something happened, they would have to play.

They usually don't dare to spend money on making clothes, but at the end of the year they make several clothes, and the masters will definitely reward them because they have to celebrate the New Year after all.

 But she also knew that the emperor was still worried. Otherwise, why would she only give the cloth to Shen Cai when she was pregnant?

 Shen Cairen.

The sedan chair carries people.

"Li Xiaoyi also sent some clothing materials yesterday. It was also twenty taels. Oh, these masters are so generous now." A nun said.

 Otherwise, the higher your status, the more money you need.

Either a subsidy from the family or a reward from the emperor. This is the time to look at your savings.

 Waiting to reward people during the Chinese New Year.

Shen Chuliu didn't care about this. Since the emperor gave it, she chose a few pieces and gave them to Yao Baolin, and sent the rest to the Bureau of Service, taking twenty taels of silver with her.

Shen Chuliu didn't have much to do here. He just asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs to take 500 taels of silver and beat them into silver peanuts.

Concubine Feng Shu's maid, Chanjuan, smiled and said: "Our empress knows that Concubine Chongyuan, you have less money here, so we asked your servant to bring it. It's better to celebrate the New Year first."

 The emperor asked Li Xiaoyi to sleep with him that night. Li Xiaoyi came, but he didn't come.

She herself did not come, but Peilan and Emei sat down at Zilin Pavilion where Wei Yunv lived early in the morning.

Changle Palace is where Concubine Yi lives.

Yi Chongyuan was responsible for the death of Cao's child, but the emperor probably didn't know for sure, so she had to pretend not to know.

She suddenly gave birth prematurely in the middle of the night, which shocked the entire palace.

The Queen either does things or doesn't care, and she always manages them neatly.

 Besides, which general in battle is poor?

It’s a pity that I’m pregnant, otherwise I wouldn’t know how to turn over.

 While the entire harem was busy celebrating the New Year, something happened to Wei Yunu.

 From the first to the third day of the lunar month, there is a state banquet. A banquet is held every year in Zhengyang Palace. Third-rank ministers, idle nobles, and royal relatives all enter the palace.

Yichongyuan was so angry that she almost had a stomachache, but she could only accept it with a smile.

 The ones who are really stuck are the concubines who have no support and no money.

Her father also left a lot of property when he was still alive, but unfortunately he passed away and it was all divided between the first and third houses.

The more he talked, the angrier he became, and he thought of Shen Chuliu's cloth again.

"What are you comparing to? She hasn't slept with her for a while."

 The reward given by the Queen Mother was not silver.

 The harem is busy preparing for the New Year. Every year during the New Year, the palace is like this.

 When you are favored, you can do it quickly without giving money. You gave me the money, and it was even faster.

 Eighty-eight. Two hundred and three. Two hundred and ninety-six.

But she didn't think it was too much. Her mother's dowry when she married into the Shen family was seventy or eighty thousand, and her grandmother kept it for her under the pretext of good intentions.

 On the fourth and fifth day of the lunar month, we rest. On the sixth, seventh and eighth day of the lunar month, the Queen of Fengzao Palace entertains guests, all of whom are female relatives.

Of course, there are only a few people who can get it, but she only needs to ask those few people to get it.

 Just asked the fourth day of the Lunar New Year to see the situation.

 This requires no accommodation. Besides, when the concubine who is not favored meets the emperor, why don't you expect to compete for favor with her?

 The ancients had a lot of free time, so they naturally paid more attention to festivals. Whether it was for fun or to be busy, the New Year has always been the most valued festival.

There is such a reward now, and there will still be rewards when it is done.

 The Bureau of Services and Services got the money and materials and rushed to work that day. Even though grandma and the embroiderers had to work harder, they still praised Shen for being such a good person. Isn’t it a good idea to make money?

The Queen has been paying attention to it for a long time. It has been nearly seven months, and it is naturally dangerous every day, so there is no delay.

But it’s just a joke, after all, Lu Xiaoyi still has the support of the Queen, and even the cloth was rewarded by the Queen.

On the other hand, four slaves were busy making underwear for Shen Chuliu.

So at that moment, she asked Yuanxiao to give one hundred taels to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

It was at this time that Concubine Feng Shu sent a package of five hundred taels of silver.

 Yichongyuan’s Furongxuan is in such a dilemma. She is pregnant, so she has a lot to take care of this year, but she doesn't have money to spare.

Wei Yunv was in terrible pain. She was only seven months old, but the child was already quite big.

 “Speaking of which, Lu Xiaoyi is not that interesting. This year there are only five taels.”

 Including what she brought with her when she entered the palace, she now has no shortage of money.

"Hey, you don't know where you are from. These two people, from the Marquis's Palace and the Duke's Palace, are still short of money? As for this Shen Cairen, he was still Baolin last year, and he didn't come here empty-handed."

It is true that when a rejected royal girl gives birth to a child, it is normal for the emperor not to come.

 These days, all the concubines will participate. Even if you wear clothing and jewelry twice, you must make sure it is clean and tidy.

  In the second half of the year, more money is used to reward people. If it all depends on the amount of money, it will be stretched thin.

Yifei has been favored for many years. Although she has no family background, she will naturally not be short of money.

After sending Chanjuan away, Yi Chongyuan's eyes were red with anger: "You are laughing at me because I have no family background! How could I have these grievances if I had a better background? Everyone despises my poor family background. So Changle Is it fine in the palace? It’s just that I have favors and no shortage of money! Why doesn’t she go to Changle Palace to give alms? "

A gown today must be matched with a different skirt tomorrow, otherwise it will be too shabby.

In the past, she was favored and given a lot of rewards, but now her family won't give her a penny, and she can't give it to her.

 Whose face is this slap in the face?

 But to go back would be to offend others.

 In fact, Yi Chongyuan knew it well. The emperor's sudden coldness was due to Cao's death.

As for silver, last year, the gift was two thousand taels. This year, I have seen her promoted to the throne twice, and maybe I got an extra thousand taels for being favored.

 The Queen Mother entertains guests in the ninth and twelfth days of the lunar month.

They are all good at embroidery. Zi Zhu has also invented two new hairstyles, which she has already tried on Zi Rui, and they are very good.

 But this year the emperor did not give her any extra reward.

 Then it’s the Lantern Festival and the state banquet.

 On New Year's Eve, the Queen Mother of the two palaces, the emperor, the queen, the prince, the princess and all the concubines worship the ancestors in the ancestral temple.

  "The emperor does favor that talented person Shen! Does she deserve it?"

 Let’s not talk about it, since someone in the palace wants this child, it is superfluous for her to have a child.

  She had already figured it out, so she said she was born prematurely.
