Fast Travel: The Mountains and the Seas Are Allies

Chapter 19

"What do you know? These men are all greedy for novelty. Back then, the master and Fujin were in love. The master stayed in the main courtyard for most of the month in January. Whenever he got any new things, it was like water. They were all sent to the main courtyard, and after Fujin picked out the rest, he picked up one or two items and gave them to the few princesses in the backyard! You are a short-sighted guy, and you were dazzled by the things that the master gave Fujin to you before, but They are all the leftover things that Fujin picked up back then, and Fujin still looks so happy and proud, which is not like a great aunt from Manchuria!"

"I also know about this. When the master heard that Fujin liked hibiscus stones, he searched a lot. There are two excellent materials, which were made by the master's own drawings!"

"There is also the not old pine in the main courtyard, which is the tallest one in the whole mansion, and it was planted by the master and Fujin when they first moved into the mansion~ Because here, the master also asked people to take all the pine trees in the mansion. It has been uprooted, and no pine trees can be planted anywhere except the main courtyard!"

"No, these years, even Li Fang Fujin dared not take half of Joe in front of Fujin even after giving birth to three sons and one daughter! But now, even Fujin has fallen into such a situation, and Fujin on that side is just a plaything. It’s just a bit of a favor in life! It’s so flamboyant, it’s a small dining room and it’s sending soup to the front yard to beg for favors! It’s just like this, you can’t keep the master’s person~ It’s hard to see, this In the future, it might not be as good as Fujin!"

"It's impossible to say for sure! Look at the old Fujin, look at that one again, hehe, he doesn't deserve the word "favorite"!"

"host···"

Du Ruo waved his hand and walked back.

"master?"

"Send those three to Grandma Li Jia, saying that my place is too small to tolerate such slaves talking nonsense about the master." Du Ruo smiled, glanced at the ancient fragrance beside him, and suddenly felt that today is called ancient. It was the most sensible choice for Xiang to take a walk with her: "The exact words, you just follow the words."

"Yes, the servant knows."

Du Ruo didn't ask what happened to the three rough envoys in the end, but when she walked in the courtyard and the corridor leading to the second gate every day, she never met the servants who told her the past.

As soon as we entered the middle of the twelfth lunar month, the snow fell one after another, covering the sky and the earth.

The Fourth Master also became increasingly busy and never entered the backyard again.

"I heard that many houses have collapsed in the south of the city."

"I'm afraid a lot of people will freeze to death."

"What are you two talking about in front of the master!" Xiangyun glared at Yuehua and Yusi before bringing the tea to the table: "Master, we will be thirty in three days. How will you enter the palace this year? Said that there is no letter yet~ Do you want the servant to go to Li Jiamao's place?"

"Why did you learn from Yusi to be impatient?" Fujin will have to report illness this year, but she and Li can't escape. During the New Year's banquet, a bunch of brothers are all wives, concubines and children. Yes, there is no need to ask Fourth Master Mao to sit alone. Fortunately, she is only a side Fujin, and she can go to the New Year's banquet, and worship her ancestors, so she won't be needed. Otherwise, with her current body, she can't bear that at all. Kneeling for an hour or two, freezing for a whole morning, the process of kneeling and kowtowing.

Xiangyun was obedient and silent after hearing her master's words.

"Master, Mother Li Jia is here."

"Please take care of Fu Jin'an."

"Get up, Mammy."

"It's Master Feng's wish that I go over the New Year's Eve banquet with Fujin."

"Then please trouble Mammy."

"They are all slaves. They cannot bear the trouble of Chou Fujin. On New Year's Eve, he had to enter the palace in the afternoon. Chou Fujin and Li Chou Fujin arrived at the palace gate at about noon. They went to Yonghe Palace to pay their respects to Concubine De. Wait until the third quarter to the sixth quarter of the hour, and then go with Concubine De to pay her respects to the Queen Mother. The banquet always starts at half past midnight..."

On New Year's Eve, the snow that had been falling for several days finally stopped.

The fourth master entered the palace before dawn, and Du Ruo also got up early in the morning. He only used steamed buns to pad his stomach, then took a bath and changed his clothes, and painted his makeup. , take the auspicious crown of ruby ​​smoked mink, and set off for the second gate.

Not long after Du Ruo arrived, Li Shi also arrived.

Du Ruo was not surprised when he didn't see Da Gege, but Li Shi really lost a lot of weight. Originally, Li Shi was the kind of beauty with a willow and slender waist that was born in the Jiangnan Water Village, but now she looks even thinner, quite It smells like a diseased Xizi, wearing a boa robe, it is so empty that it could be blown away by a gust of wind.

"Sister Li is fine."

"Yes." Mrs. Li nodded lightly, without even a courtesy, she got on the first carriage.

Du Ruo smiled, didn't say anything, just patted Nanny Cen's hand, and helped Gu Xiang get into the second car.

The carriage swayed slowly, and when it arrived at the gate of the palace, it was exactly a quarter of noon.

As Baylor's side Fujin, she didn't even have to sit in the most common two-person sedan chair, so she could only walk behind the alluring nurse against the whistling north wind, step by step.

"My master has not yet gotten up from his lunch break. The two of you are sitting next to me to have a rest."

The Warehouse is well-equipped, including hot tea, snacks, mirrors, hot water basins, cloth towels, and a bucket behind the screen.

Gu Xiang then carefully helped Du Ruo arrange her make-up.

After a while, the newly married Thirteenth Fujin Zhaojia arrived, leading the Fujin Guarjia clan from the mansion.

Mrs. Zhaojia was young, about thirteen or fourteen years old, her appearance had not yet matured, and she was dull. Standing next to Mrs. Guerjia, who had a bright face and a proud figure, even if she stood in front, it was inevitable It was lined so that there was no half of the limelight.

But the little girl was not dissatisfied in the slightest. She adhered to the rules in every word and deed, but she did not make people feel rigid. She also had special thoughts in dealing with people. When she saw the two side Fujins of her father and brother's house, she neither looked up to them. He didn't look disdainful to talk to him, nor did he lower his profile and deliberately come forward to make friends. He just chatted without saying a word. He didn't ask about other people's affairs, didn't talk about men's gossip, didn't talk about his own family affairs, and only talked about Rouge. Gouache flower look.

After another cup of tea, the [-]th Fujin Wanyan, who also just got married this year, and the side Fujin Yierjueluo, who was pregnant with a big belly, also entered the room.

At the same age of thirteen or fourteen, this fourteenth Fujin is much better than Zhao Jia's in appearance, with an oval face, double phoenix eyes, and white and thin skin, which is really better than the clean-looking side Fujin who is following her a lot.

But this beauty's face was dark at this time. After entering the room, she bowed to the thirteen blessings, and then went directly to the first one, completely ignoring Du Ruo and the others. After a while, he caught a glimpse of Fang Fujin standing aside with a big belly.

"Your Majesty, please come in."
