Shen Jin looked at the man in front of him in a brocade robe, with a face like a crown jade, and was dumbfounded. Then he looked at Chu Xiuyuan who was sitting and talking with the man, then turned his head to look at Anping beside him, and finally Looking at the man, I still can't believe that this man is Yongningbo, as if Kuangcao suddenly turned into Xiaozhuan...
The man noticed Shen Jin's expression, and the puzzled and tangled look in his eyes made him laugh, and said, "Ma'am, don't you know me as your husband?"
I've never met you before! Shen Jin pursed her lips and didn't say anything, but she didn't know that her face couldn't hide anything, and the man laughed.
Chu Xiuyuan's face was a little pale, but he said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, he is indeed the elder brother."
The promised face is like Zhong Kui, the personality is cruel, and he likes to eat raw meat and drink blood every day. It's okay to kill someone for fun
Shen Jin sat across from Chu Xiuming, and didn't speak, but after laughing, Chu Xiuming said, "In six days, the imperial court will arrive."
"Hmph, the battle is over, what's the use of coming?" Chu Xiuyuan said angrily.
"If they don't come, what will happen to the supplies?" Compared with Chu Xiuyuan, Chu Xiuming is very calm. When he sits like this, he looks like a person in a painting. Shen Jin feels that if those ladies in the capital really see Seeing Chu Xiuming's appearance, I don't know if I will regret it.
And looking at the charm of his gestures, he doesn't look like someone who hasn't read the book... Looking at it this way, Chu Xiuming doesn't look like a general at all, but like a nobleman.
Looking at his wife who ran away again, Chu Xiuming sighed helplessly, and glanced at his younger brother, Chu Xiuyuan shrugged. He didn't get along with this sister-in-law much, but he didn't find that Shen Jin had this problem, "Sister-in-law?"
"Sister-in-law?" Chu Xiuyuan called out with a louder voice.
Shen Jin was stunned for a moment before looking at Chu Xiuyuan, her face that had finally become rounder became thinner again, making her eyes round and watery, "What's wrong?"
Chu Xiuming said with a smile, "What's madam thinking?"
Shen Jin moved her lips and blushed. She was embarrassed to tell Chu Xiuming what she was thinking, "I didn't think anything."
Chu Xiuming didn't ask any further questions, but just said, "When the people from the court come, madam, would you like to help me receive my husband?"
"Me?" Shen Jin looked at Chu Xiuming, with the word unwilling written all over his face.
Chu Xiuming pretended that he didn't see it, and said, "Yes, because my husband and younger brother were seriously injured and couldn't get up, the only one who can make decisions in this house is the madam, so I can only trouble the madam."
Shen Jin looked at Chu Xiuming who was seriously injured and couldn't get up, then looked at Chu Xiuyuan, and finally responded, "Oh." He asked slowly, "What do I need to do?"
Chu Xiuming said, "I'll let Mother Zhao tell you."
"Okay." Shen Jin finally agreed.
Chu Xiuming said, "Then let's eat."
In the current situation, even the food eaten by the general's mansion cannot be exquisite, but there is no shortage of meat on the table, it is all some horse meat. Some of them had horse meat, and those horses that were injured but not crippled were well-raised in the camp, and they were all good horses.
Horse meat was actually quite unpalatable, especially the meat of this kind of war horse. Not only was it unpalatable, but it was also very hard. Shen Jin didn't want to eat it after taking a bite.
The war is over, and Shen Jin has become a little squeamish again. She will not waste food, but no longer force herself to eat those things that are difficult to swallow.
The two brothers Chu Xiuming and Chu Xiuyuan ate very deliciously, while Shen Jin ate steamed buns with mixed noodles and some pickled vegetable soup. After a few people finished their meals, Anping went to the kitchen to bring a bowl of stewed food. Ejiaolai placed it in front of Chu Xiuyuan.
"Sister-in-law..." Chu Xiuyuan would get such a bowl of food alone these few days, "I think I'm ready."
"It's for blood." Shen Jin said, "I asked the doctor, you should eat something."
Things like donkey-hide gelatin are very nourishing for women, so there is a lot of it in Shen Jin's dowry, but it is very troublesome to eat. Xiuyuan was seriously injured and didn't have a good rest. It's okay to be young now, but he will be full of injuries when he is old.
After Shen Jin asked the doctor, she began to let Chu Xiuyuan drink donkey-hide gelatin on time every day. Yes, I'll replace it for you."
Chu Xiuyuan also knew that Shen Jin had good intentions, but he felt that this thing should be drunk by women, and Shen Jin was obviously the weakest in the family.
After Chu Xiuyuan finished drinking, Shen Jin stood up and said, "Then I'll go back first."
"When the man is free these few days, you can move to live in my yard." Chu Xiuming said, "Pick up your things first."
Shen Jin's face turned red, she almost forgot about this, bit her lower lip and left without answering.
When the war broke out, Chu Xiuming said that Mother Zhao was not in the border town. She left the border town not long after the Chinese New Year to visit relatives. She bought a lot of food and brought it back with her in the past two days.
Zhao Nanny looked only about forty, and she was very kind. I heard that she was the big girl next to the two mothers of the Chu Xiuming brothers. Fuchu is quite respectable.
But Shen Jin didn't have any dealings with her, and when Shen Jin just got married, Nanny Zhao wouldn't come to serve Shen Jin, and then she went to visit relatives again.
Zhao Nanny had already been ordered to wait for Shen Jin in the yard, and when she saw Shen Jin, she got up and saluted, "Ma'am."
Shen Jin nodded with a smile and said, "Please trouble Mammy."
Zhao Nanny said, "It's my honor to be able to serve Madam."
"Anping pour tea for Nanny." Shen Jin didn't answer but just ordered.
"Yes." An saluted and went down to prepare.
Shen Jin said, "Nurse, sit down first."
Zhao Nanny waited for Shen Jin to sit down before sitting down on the chair. Shen Jin narrowed her eyes when she saw Zhao Nanny's posture. When Chu Xiuming called her Zhao Nanny just now, Shen Jin had doubts that she could be called Those who are called mothers are generally those who have nursed the heirs of the master's family, and there is another case that they come out of the palace.
Now it seems that Zhao mama probably has two types, because her sitting posture and etiquette are not something ordinary servants can practice. Back then, Princess Rui invited Shen Jin and the other sisters from the palace to specialize Teach them, Shen Jin studied very seriously, so he was familiar with these, and it was only then that he saw it all at once.
It's just that Shen Jin felt that Zhao Nanny had a different feeling from the one who taught her back then. It seemed that Zhao Nanny's teaching was more concise and natural, while what she learned back then was a little more tedious and more focused.
Although she has doubts, Shen Jin will not ask. Even if the attitude of the general's mansion seems to accept her now, it is not the same. The time was not as harmonious as it looked in the capital.
Anping quickly brought tea, and also brown sugar water for Shen Jin. The brown sugar was from the batch of supplies brought back by Nanny Zhao. Anping knew the time of Shen Jin's childhood, but this time it was supposed to arrive, but he never came. Come, so Anping went to the housekeeper to ask for brown sugar, and asked Shen Jin to drink some.
Zhao Nanny glanced at it, and knew it in her heart. Chu Xiuming asked her not only to teach Shen Jin some things, but also to help her recuperate his body, especially the problem of Shen Jin's hands.
"Madam, drink some while it's hot." An Ping persuaded softly.
Shen Jin nodded. This thing was not rare in the past, but it is considered a rare thing in the border town now. He took a few sips of brown sugar water with both hands, and then said with a smile, "Teach me, mother, if the envoy of the imperial court Here, how do I receive it?"
Zhao Momo was a little fat and looked very gentle. After she took a sip of tea, she put it aside. When she heard Shen Jin's words, she said, "Why should Madam worry about how to receive them?"
"They were sent by the emperor." Shen Jin looked at Zhao Nanny and asked, "They represent the emperor."
Zhao Nanny didn't say that Shen Jin was wrong, but just said, "Then what is your identity, madam?"
Shen Jin was stunned for a moment, and understood what Nanny Zhao meant. She was a real relative of the emperor, not to mention the title of princess, and her husband was a general guarding one side of Yongningbo.
"And this time, if Madam treats them with good wine and good food and a gentle attitude, the court will not be at ease." Zhao Momo said gently.
"I understand." Shen Jin pursed her lips.
"There is also an inn in the city, just let them live there." Seeing that Shen Jin understood, Zhao Mama smiled and said, "In your capacity, madam, you should be more arrogant. Even in the capital, few people can Let Madam bow her head."
Shen Jin moved her lips and said, "I will try my best."
Arrogant? Shen Jin thought of Shen Zi's appearance, what if she were replaced by herself? I always feel that something... is not right.
Zhao Nanny also knew Shen Jin's identity. Although she was the daughter of King Rui, she would not be favored if she could be married here. No, it seems that she still has a lot to teach, but because of Shen Jin's care for Chu Xiuyuan, Zhao Nanny is willing to work for her.
Moreover, Mammy Zhao also heard about Shen Jin's performance in the border town. She thinks that Shen Jin is very smart and can be made...
Soon, Nanny Zhao wanted to withdraw her evaluation of Shen Jin. She felt that Shen Jin had perfectly corrected a sentence. A rabbit will bite when it is in a hurry. Shen Jin is like a rabbit. When I got up, I usually looked soft, even if someone pulled my ears and poked my stomach, I would not seem angry, and at most I could continue to nest in another place.
But when there is a leopard standing behind the rabbit, do you want to pull the ears? Stomach poke? Hehe, the leopard will kill you first.
