Returning to the Hou Mansion, I first went to Mrs. Jin’s room. It was almost dinner time. Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Fang were in front of the old lady. Aunt Xu and Aunt Huo were also waiting, but Jiang Wanying was not there. She was the head matron. , there is definitely something to do at this time. So Fu Qiuning visited them one by one and presented the gifts prepared by the palace. They were not despicable at all and were much heavier than the dowry at that time. At this time, the Jin Xianghou Mansion was no longer what it used to be. How could the Zhenjiang Prince's Mansion still dare to be as scornful as it was six years ago
But naturally no one cares about these gifts. The old lady just looked at it briefly and ordered it to be put away. Mrs. Jiang probably remembered the humiliation her son suffered when he was forced to marry six years ago. She snorted and turned away. Mrs. Fang, on the other hand, said a few words to Fu Qiuning. Then the old lady said: "The children are still in school and will be back soon. Where is Fengju? Didn't he pick you up? Why didn't you come back together?"
Fu Qiuning answered according to Jin Fengju's instructions. After a while, Jiang Wanying came over. Seeing her coming back, she naturally went up and made out with her. Then he said to Qiuxia beside him: "Now that my sister is back, I want to go back and send some of the venison and pheasant, yes, and the fresh vegetables that Zhuangzi sent me a few days ago." After that, he said to Fu Qiuning : "It's a good thing you came back at this time, otherwise we wouldn't be able to eat these fresh vegetables. It's all thanks to the ingenuity of the villagers below. They actually grew vegetables in the greenhouse, and they just sent some for us to try. Son, I’m afraid I’m going to have a meal in the next two days, so I’ll just give some to my sister.”
Fu Qiuning thanked her quickly without telling Jiang Wanying that there was a greenhouse in her Wanfengxuan where she grew various vegetables for hot pot. After sitting down and saying a few words, the class was dismissed. As soon as Jin Zangfeng and Jin Zangjiao entered the door, they couldn't help but be very excited when they saw their mother coming back. Dare to be presumptuous.
The old lady smiled and said: "Qiu Ning and Feng'er Jiao'er will have dinner at my place today. I am the only one who cares about them on weekdays, and I rarely give them anything." After saying this, everyone laughed, As soon as dinner was served, Mrs. Jiang, Mrs. Fang and Qiu Ning served the old lady after dinner, and then went back.
Returning to Wanfengxuan, Jin Fengju probably ordered someone to clean it in advance. The room was clean and bright. Taking this opportunity, Jin Fengju added a lot of exquisite furnishings to it. Now Wanfengxuan is no longer as beautiful as it was in previous years. The appearance of the cold palace has somewhat restored the rich and elegant style of the old Marquis's beloved concubine when he was still alive.
Fu Qiuning had not seen the two children for three days, so he naturally became more affectionate. He asked about their homework and what was the attitude of the clan members in the school? Jin Zangfeng said: "Others are fine, especially Zhenxuan in Aunt Xu's room. Although he is two years younger than me, he is really smart and diligent. He has only spoken to me a few words. The biggest headache is Zhenyi in Aunt Xu's room. I always look for opportunities to cause trouble. I ignored him several times, but now I am getting more and more aggressive. He threw an inkstone earlier, and I dodged it, but my forehead turned red. When I came back, the old lady asked me, I didn’t I want to talk, but my sister is quick to talk. The old lady told Aunt Xu a lot, so he has restrained himself a little in the past two days, but I think he probably hates me even more, and I really don’t know what to do. "
Fu Qiuning frowned and said: "Such a reckless thing may have been made a spearman by someone. Just don't argue with him. If you want to take action again, be smart. Count on the fact that Mr. is about to arrive, so you can lead him to take action." But I endured it for a while and let my husband see this scene. Naturally, I had to punish him. You usually work hard and calmly. How could your husband think it is your fault? These secret fights to protect yourself, I have slowly learned some. Alas! Who made your fate bad? You are destined to be born in this deep house and compound, and you are destined not to have the harmonious scene of brothers, friends, and brothers."
Jin Zangfeng laughed and said, "What mother said is that my son is upright by nature, but she didn't think of such a good solution." Because Jin Zangjiao also came up and chirped about how he played the piano, overshadowing Jin Xiuzhen, and kept giggling. Then he took out his embroidery and showed it to Qiu Ning. I was just too impatient, so I made the mandarin duck look like two wild ducks.
Fu Qiuning asked about the health of Jin Zhuan and Lu Hua. The ladies kept talking until Youshi. Considering that the children had to go to school the next day, they turned off the lights and rested.
In the next three or five days, Jin Fengju did not come again. Fu Qiuning guessed that he must be busy again. Thinking of this man's composure and scheming, I couldn't help but feel lucky for Prince Rong, whom I had never met before, and secretly thought that you could have him help you. Could it be that you were really lucky to have the True Dragon Emperor? Don't tell me, although you are ranked sixth, you are somewhat similar to Emperor Yongzheng. Back then, there was Old Thirteen next to him, and now you have Jin Fengju next to you. And it seems that this Jin Fengju is both civil and military, and has deep scheming, but he is not inferior at all. For Thirteenth Master.
There was another light snowfall that day, and the snowdrops continued to fall in thin layers until the evening. On the morning of the second day, Fu Qiuning went to brush the snow off the plum blossoms, and continued to do it after lunch. When he came back from doing it, he stopped by the greenhouse and saw that the spinach, rapeseed, lettuce, etc. inside were all very fresh and tender. cute. It is much fresher and greener than the one Jiang Wanying sent over that day. So he took the basket and cut some back, and said to Yu Niang: "Tonight we have shabu-shabu, don't we have good silver charcoal? I haven't used it in the past, and I haven't used it this year, so I will use it tonight." Come on, let me mix some sauce."
Although there is shabu-shabu in this fictional era, it is very simple. When you eat it normally, you just put sauerkraut, frozen tofu, meat slices and vermicelli in it. After it is ready, pour it out and drink it. It is like fresh soup, but the meat is smoother than in the soup. Tender and refreshing. Thanks to Fu Qiuning's time-traveled soul, Yu Jie and Yu Niang have already eaten vegetable hot pot with seasoning sauce. The taste is naturally much better than simple shabu-shabu.
There is sesame sauce, Qiuning adds her own pickled chive flowers and a little seafood sauce that she usually makes. Perhaps because the things are fresh, the sauce she makes is even more delicious than the hot pot sauce in modern restaurants. When Yu Niang and Yu Jie heard about hot pot, they couldn't help but cheered and immediately went to prepare it.
After mixing a plate of sauce, Fu Qiuning said with a smile: "I've lost my accuracy for some reason today. Look at this, I'm afraid I won't be able to finish all the sauce in one meal. That's all. If there is any left, save it for dipping the cabbage root." Let's go." As he said that, he wiped his hands and came out, thinking that Jin Zangfeng and Jin Zangjiao were probably about to get out of school.
Unexpectedly, when the courtyard door opened, several people came in at once. Fu Qiuning saw it in the main room and hurriedly took them out. He thought to himself: The sauce I prepared today is quite accurate, but there are two more people like this foodie. ? I'm afraid I need to adjust some more. While thinking about it, Jin Fengju had already hugged Jin Zangjiao and led Jin Zangfeng to the corridor. He asked her with a smile: "You came out so fast, but are you watching the children after school in the house?"
Fu Qiuning said with a smile: "Nothing happened anyway. I thought the children would be back by now, so I stood up and took a look, but it was useless." After saying that, Jin Fengju sighed: "A loving mother's heart moves heaven and earth. Where can I Can it be distinguished by whether it is useful or not?" As he said that, he and a few children entered the house. Fu Qiuning took his cloak, dusted the snow and hung it up.
"Go to the kitchen and see what delicious food has been cooked." Jin Fengju drove the children to the kitchen, and Fu Qiuning knew that he had something to say to him. In addition, he was afraid that he would have to stay here to eat tonight. In fact, at this time, there was no need to speculate on such things. It was just that she was always lucky, wondering if Jin Fengju would have something wrong in the front yard, coming and going in a hurry.
"My father looks so good today, with a smile on his face and in his eyes. But I haven't seen you so happy for a long time. Is there something good going on?" Fu Qiuning asked with a smile.
"It's a good thing, of course it's a good thing. Not only am I happy, but your father and grandfather are also very happy now." Jin Fengju laughed, turned around and sat down on the edge of the Kang, with a proud smile on his face
"But Prince Hong finally lost his composure and was cheated?" Fu Qiuning had actually guessed it early on, but he only said it now. He wanted to make Jin Fengju feel a sense of accomplishment. Women can be smart, but they must not Always trying to steal a man's limelight, especially a proud man like Jin Fengju.
"Sure enough, Bingxue is smart." Jin Fengju glanced sideways at Fu Qiuning: "You have guessed it a long time ago, right? You deliberately refused to say it." Fu Qiuning is smart, but he, Jin Fengju, is not a fool.
Fu Qiuning smiled and immediately changed the subject: "In that case, is His Majesty Long Yan angry? How is Prince Nalie doing now?" She personally held the tea in the Yujie tray and placed it in front of Jin Fengju. She was really curious about the emperor. What would she do? After listening to what Jin Fengju said, she was very sure that this emperor was a figure like Old Kangxi. Such a person should not be as simple as clearing rewards and punishments, right
"Oh, of course he was furious. How could he not be angry? Prince Lie was fined one year's salary and three thousand taels of silver. Other officials were appointed to take charge of the frost prevention and disaster control work in the capital, and the Liaodong province was also fined. The two officials have been dismissed and will never be used again." Jin Fengju smiled and said, "How is it? This result is not bad, right?"
Fu Qiuning smiled and said: "Of course I know the outcome well. How do I know? But what happens after Prince Hong reports the matter? The Holy Emperor punished Prince Lie, where is Prince Hong..."
Jin Fengju smiled and said: "Prince Hong, of course you have to reward me. Your Majesty always makes clear rewards and punishments. This generous reward is really eye-catching. Not only are you rewarded with rare antiques and the like, but you are also rewarded with a six-clawed dragon." Pao, don't you think this is a generous reward? The whole court is in an uproar, Qiu Ning, thanks to you, Prince Hong is finally proud this time, and even the Zhenjiang Palace is beaming with joy. "
