Chapter 27
Princess Rui and Concubine Chen had another conversation, and Concubine Chen took back, leaving behind King Rui and Princess Rui. After King Rui sent the person out, he said to Princess Rui what Emperor Cheng said today, "What do you mean by the emperor's brother?"
"No matter what the emperor's brother means, just do it." Princess Rui said with a gentle voice, "When I reply, I will ask more about Jinya Tou Biancheng and Yongning Bo. The prince should not come forward for this matter."
"The princess said," said King Rui, "But this girl is really, no one can directly take care of others and ask for things."
Princess Rui did not read the letter Chen Jin wrote to Chen Qi and the others, and she didn't quite understand for a moment. Princess Rui roughly said the content of the letter, but saw Princess Rui's eyes turned red and she burst into tears silently. Princess Rui asked in surprise, "What's wrong with Princess?"
"The prince is too partial. They are all real sisters. If you want something, you should be close. Could it be that you should be like an outsider? I don't know what Erya would think, but Qi'er will definitely like it." Princess Rui wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief. "And the prince only noticed that Jinya wanted something, but look at what she wanted. If it weren't for the fact that the border town was really bitter, how could she ask for food that was easy to store?"
When Prince Rui was told this, she felt a little guilty and said, "I'm the one who is in trouble."
"Prince, when he was besieged by the barbarians, every word in the letter of Jin Yatou's request for help was bloody and tears, but... Do you see, she complained or cried today?" Princess Rui said, "Nothing else, the second girl was just a concubine of her husband, and she came back and cried and made a fuss to let the prince decide. But what about Jin Yatou? But it caused any trouble to the prince? When Jin Yatou was in the mansion, she liked lightness the most. She was not finer and would rather be hungry than snatch. Now she wanted some..." As if she couldn't speak, she lay on the table and cried in a low voice.
King Rui also felt sour in his heart. Thinking about Chen Jin's life-threatening life in the border town, he was besieged by the barbarians for so long, and suffered a lot. However, he did not mention it in his heart, but instead tried his best to prepare gifts for them to send them back. He was full of tenderness for a while and also felt that Chen Zi was too noisy. King Rui, who was soft-hearted because of Concubine Xu's hard begging for some of his second son-in-law, suddenly became determined again, "Stop crying, prepare more things for Jin Yatou. I just gave a lot of brocade in the palace, so I also sent more. Jin Yatou was alone in the border town, and I'm afraid there was not even a close person."
Princess Rui knew that sometimes it was too late, so she stopped crying after listening to the advice and asked someone to bring water to make up again. However, this time she didn't even put on makeup and only applied a layer of fat, and then came out and said, "I was too... I just thought that Jin Yatou was not full or warm in food there, so she felt aching in her heart, and she wanted to suffer these pains for her."
"I know you." King Rui comforted.
Princess Rui said, "It's really hard to come over there. It's better to prepare more medicinal herbs for Jin Yatou to send money. There are also money. She doesn't have any caring people around her, so it's inevitable that she will give more rewards."
"Okay." King Rui was easy to say anything at this time.
Princess Rui said slowly, "Didn't the prince say that he lacked a precious sword? Unexpectedly, when the joke was made, Jin Yatou remembered it in his heart. I looked at the letter and said that this was the sword of the barbarian leader, but Jin Yatou didn't give the best to the emperor, just thinking about leaving it to the prince... I don't know if the emperor would blame it."
When Prince Rui heard Princess Rui say this, she laughed, "Don't worry, the emperor is not so stingy."
Princess Rui's eyes flashed and said nothing, but just smiled gently.
After King Rui left, Cuixi changed Princess Rui's warm jujube tea. Princess Rui took a few sips and put down the cup, took Cuixi into the inner room, "Find out my sandalwood box."
Cui Xi responded and went out the box that Princess Rui wanted. Princess Rui opened it and looked at it. It was filled with silver notes, and she lowered her eyes slightly and said, "When the time comes, hide this box in the japonica rice and send it to Jinya Tou."
"Princess..." Cui Xi looked at Princess Rui in surprise. This was all the savings of Princess Rui, which was 500,000 taels.
Princess Rui didn't say anything. I'm afraid that Princess Rui did not know the family background in the mansion, and the money was not given to Chen Jin. Only the fool of Princess Rui felt that Emperor Cheng was generous. Thinking of his eldest son, Princess Rui closed his eyes and said, "Do as I said."
"Yes." Cuixi stopped saying anything.
Cui Xi helped Princess Rui receive the gift list and said, "I'm afraid Concubine Xu is going to make trouble again."
Princess Rui chuckled, "This girl Jin." She only gave gifts to Princess Rui, Princess Rui and Concubine Chen, but most of the gifts to Princess Rui were prepared for her three children. She really had a clear distinction between love and hate and was unwilling to take advantage of Concubine Xu and the others. However, Princess Rui did not feel stingy, but felt a little more relieved, otherwise she would not have sent the money to Chen Jin in the name of Chen Jin. "But it has also made the child suffer, so people send the letter to Qi'er and the others, and copy a gift list to her, and she will naturally understand."
Chen Jin, who suffered in Princess Rui's heart, was working hard to clean the pot at this time. The fresh lamb meat was rinsed in the soup pot, and even without dipping sauce, it was particularly fragrant. Next to it was the chili sauce specially prepared by the mansion.
Chu Xiuyuan ran outside for a while and looked a little darker. He went down with a large chopsticks and took them out when they were cooked and lowered his head to eat. He was a little hungry. Chu Xiuming had an elegant posture, but his chopsticks were as fast as the knife, and he picked out the meatballs as soon as they were cooked.
Chen Jin's face was flushed and her nose was covered with sweat. She not only liked to eat lamb inside, but also liked tofu. She was tender and smooth and slightly dipped in a little chili, which was so delicious.
After eating the hot pot, some noodles were added inside, which were both vigorous and delicious. After eating, Chen Jin sat on a chair, holding hawthorn tea in both hands and said, "The things here are still delicious."
"Didn't you say that there are many delicious foods in the capital?" Chu Xiuyuan also made his stomach round and he said.
Chen Jin sighed, "Yes, but I can't eat it. Every time I eat it according to the rules, I only eat it all the time. If I want to eat something fresh, I have to pay for it myself. It's not like here, just say whatever I want to eat." She felt that this was the feeling of being the head of the family, and it couldn't be better!
"It's so pitiful." Chu Xiuyuan sighed, "Sister-in-law wants to eat whatever she wants, so she can make it for you even if she doesn't say anything to her elder brother in the mansion."
Chen Jin immediately looked at Chu Xiuming, his eyes full of anticipation, "At that time, I heard from my elder sister that they had eaten roasted venison in the palace, cut into slices of venison and roasted on charcoal fire, served with osmanthus stew..."
"Wait for this winter." Chu Xiuming spoke.
Chen Jin was satisfied and said with a smile, "Husband, you are so nice!"
"You are in the mansion during this period." Chu Xiuming said.
Chen Jin nodded and said, "Okay."
Chu Xiuyuan is going out with his brother for a while tomorrow. Seeing that his brother and sister-in-law had something to say, he stood up and said, "I'll go back first."
Chu Xiuming nodded, Chu Xiuyuan greeted Shen Jin and left first. Chu Xiuming stood up and said, "Go out for a walk."
"Okay." Chen Jin stood up, looked at Chu Xiuming's hand, put his hand on, and Chu Xiuming took Chen Jin out, but Madam Zhao and An Ping did not follow him.
"I'll stay for you little," Chu Xiuming said.
Chen Jin said obediently, "Well, I just want to play with Xiaobudian and Little Rabbit every day. Don't worry, husband, I won't run around."
Chu Xiuming nodded, "The craftsmen have arranged it. They will come to the mansion during this period. Don't come here. I will remind them not to go to the nearest of your yard."
"Yeah." Chen Jin responded, but didn't ask when he would go to her to practice the yard. He thought he would make the place before taking advantage of the absence of Chu Xiuming and his brothers.
Chu Xiuming left before dawn. When Chen Jin woke up, he was afraid he had already walked a long way. Chen Jin used breakfast to see Xiaobudian and the rabbits first, and then asked, "Madam, do you think your husband and others are in danger?"
"No." Madam Zhao smiled and comforted, "Don't worry, madam."
Chen Jin nodded, his eyes turned and said, "Do you have any instructions?"
"What is Madam asking?" Madam Zhao asked in confusion.
Chen Jin smiled and said, "What if I don't let me leave the house?"
Mama Zhao smiled and said, "No, General asked everyone in the mansion to listen to the wife."
Chen Jinxin was satisfied and said nothing after asking. On the first day after Chu Xiuming left, she played with the rabbit in the mansion for a while and then with Xiaobudian for a while. When she woke up from her nap, she also asked about the size of Madam Zhao Chu Xiuming and Chu Xiuyuan, and chose fabrics to prepare clothes for them.
The next day was still the same. By the early morning of the third day, Chen Jin got up early, then changed his clothes and took Anping out. Many people in the border town knew Chen Jin. When they saw Chen Jin bring Anping out, they would say hello and give Chen Jin some homemade things to eat.
Chu Xiuming and Chu Xiuyuan were far away from the mansion. Chen Jin was the biggest one. He had forgotten what he promised Chu Xiuming and took Anping everywhere every day.
Madam Zhao didn't know what she was busy with recently, but after just reminding An Ping a few times, she stopped caring about it.
In fact, Chen Jin felt that the people in the mansion had been strange since Chu Xiuming left, and they were very busy every day, but no one told Chen Jin, and Chen Jin didn't ask much, but he didn't worry when he saw these people's faces were full of joy.
What made Chen Jin most happy was that she grew taller after she arrived in the border town. A few days ago, Madam Zhao found out when she helped Chen Jin measure her size. She even specially found Chen Jin's clothes in the capital to try it out, and her skirts were shorter.
Not only his height, but also his previous fit tops are now tightly worn, and his cloth bags are made after he came here. After all, Chen Jin had someone put away the clothes in the capital very early, and he wore more of them after he came to the border town. The style of the clothes in the border town is already loose, so I didn't notice it for a while, which made Chen Jin happy.
Not many people knew about Chu Xiuming and Chu Xiuyuan's brothers leaving. When Chen Jin had enough fun, he felt that when they remembered Chu Xiuming, they had been away for nearly a month, and they had gone wherever they went. Even the people in the mansion didn't know, and I'm afraid only the housekeeper and Madam Zhao knew it.
