Chapter 191 Ability
According to Jiang Shu's instructions, the stewards of the palace re-made the accounts and checked the accounts at the beginning of the month.
After returning from the palace, Jiang Shu sat in the hall and checked the accounts one by one with the stewards in the palace.
There were only ten days of accounts in October, so it was very simple to calculate and it was completed in a short time.
After confirming that there were no mistakes, Jiang Shu ordered Wu Qian to make the accounts and distribute the monthly allowances to the servants in the palace.
Everyone was very happy to receive the monthly allowance, only Shuanghua Ruixue looked depressed.
After receiving the monthly allowance of twenty taels for five years, it suddenly became five taels. Ruixue felt that everyone looked at her with sarcasm and ridicule, which made her feel ashamed and angry.
Back in the house, Ruixue threw the silver on the ground.
This is not a monthly allowance, it is clearly a shame!
"What are you doing?" Shuanghua hurriedly closed the door and picked up the silver for her.
If Ruixue behaved like this, if someone saw it and told the prince and princess, it would be considered disrespectful to the master and she would be punished.
"Too bullying!" Ruixue's eyes turned red with anger, and she said angrily: "Didn't you see the way those people looked at us just now? All mocking."
"She bullied us like this, how can we face people in this mansion in the future."
In the past, in this mansion, no matter where they went, the people in the mansion would respectfully call them "Miss Ruixue (Shuanghua)", and even Manager Mo would be polite to them.
But when they received their monthly allowance today, the attitude of the people in the palace towards them had obviously changed greatly, and they treated them as ordinary maids.
In addition to the allowance, other treatments were also reduced, just like Chu Yu Tan Yu.
Ruixue couldn't accept such a huge contrast.
"You and I have only this fate, so we can only accept it. In the future, just do your duty and do your job well, and don't think about anything else." Shuanghua advised earnestly. "
In fact, there is nothing wrong with being a maid in the palace. Compared with the palace, the population in the palace is simple, the prince and princess are also tolerant and kind, and the rules are not as strict as those in the palace."
Ruixue became more and more angry after hearing this. She didn't want to be a maid all her life.
Knowing that Shuanghua didn't think the same as her, Ruixue looked at her deeply and buried her emotions in her heart.
In the evening, Yu Zheng read to Jiang Shu as usual, but Jiang Shu frowned and looked absent-minded.
"What's up?" Yu Zheng put down the book and asked her, his slender fingers gently smoothing his tightly wrinkled eyebrows.
Jiang Shu glanced at him, moved her lips and hesitated to speak.
It was really not appropriate to talk to Yu Zheng about such a woman's private affairs.
So Jiang Shu made up another excuse and said, "Today I went to the palace to pay my respects, and my mother talked about the matter of offspring. I am a little worried and afraid of disappointing them."
Hearing this, Yu Zheng picked her up and walked to the bed, lowered the bed curtain and said, "Instead of worrying, why not work harder."
However, Yu Zheng's hand just touched Jiang Shu's collar and was grabbed by Jiang Shu.
"What's wrong?" Yu Zheng raised his eyebrows in confusion.
This was the first time Jiang Shu rejected him.
Jiang Shu was helpless and stammered, "My period should have come these days...it's not...inconvenient."
Yu Zheng was stunned after hearing this: "Has it come yet?"
Jiang Shu shook her head and said in annoyance: "It should have come today, but I don't know why it's late."
It was because it was late that she was uneasy.
She used a menstrual belt for a day to prevent it, but nothing happened. But if she didn't use the menstrual belt, she was afraid that it would come when she wasn't paying attention and stain her clothes and sheets. Because
of this, she didn't dare to be close to Yu Zheng, for fear of embarrassment halfway.
His dark eyes stared at her for a long time, and Yu Zheng suddenly laughed and said, "Have you ever thought that it might not come?"
Jiang Shu heard it and instantly understood the deep meaning of Yu Zheng's words, and said in astonishment: "How could it be so soon?"
They have only been married for half a month, which is too short.
Yu Zheng raised his eyebrows: "Why not? Are you questioning my ability?"
Jiang Shu: "..." How could she refute this?
Seeing that she remained silent, Yu Zheng pursed his lips and said: "Let Shuanghua ask the court doctor to take a look."
What to see? To prove his ability?
Although Jiang Shu had never been pregnant, she had seen other people get pregnant!
In just half a month, even if she was really pregnant, it would not be diagnosed. It would take at least a month.
Hurryingly holding Yu Zheng who was about to get up and tell Shuanghua, Jiang Shu whispered: "It's still short, it can't be diagnosed."
In the middle of the night, calling the court doctor with a lot of people, and still being unable to diagnose anything, isn't it just a joke for no reason.
"How long will it take?" Yu Zheng had no experience in this.
Jiang Shu said, "At least one month, at most two months."
After Xu Lingyi diagnosed her pregnancy last year, she asked Doctor Fang, and that's what Doctor Fang told her.
Yu Zheng frowned, "Then wait another half a month."
Jiang Shu nodded and lay down to rest.
Because Jiang Shu was worried, Yu Zheng didn't force her, but just hugged her to sleep.
After two or three days of anxiety, Jiang Shu's menstruation still didn't come.
Chu Yu guessed in a low voice: "The princess' menstruation has always been very regular. If it hasn't come this month, I'm afraid she is pregnant."
Jiang Shu frowned: "Don't make it public before it's confirmed, so as not to make a joke."
"Yes." Chu Yu responded quietly, knowing the seriousness of the matter.
It is not accurate to speculate based on the delay of menstruation. In addition, Concubine Yu Gui was very concerned about this matter, so Jiang Shu did not dare to make a conclusion casually. She had to wait for the court doctor to confirm the diagnosis before she dared to let anyone know.
When they were resting at night, Yu Zheng pecked Jiang Shu's cherry lips and asked, "Is it coming?"
Jiang Shu knew what he was asking, and her face turned red and she said, "No."
Yu Zheng raised his eyebrows and smiled when he heard it, and said confidently, "It won't come, don't wait."
Jiang Shu: "..."
While she was stunned, Yu Zheng quickly took off her pajamas, covered her body and kissed her.
It had been a few days since they last got close to each other, and Yu Zheng missed her so much that he kept whispering in Jiang Shu's ear with a hoarse voice.
"Shu'er."
From top to bottom, Yu Zheng kissed her tenderly, and wherever his hot lips passed, it was like a spark spreading and burning.
"Brother Zheng..." Jiang Shu moaned impatiently, clinging to Yu Zheng with her slender arms.
Yu Zheng loved Jiang Shu's voice when she was excited, and felt that it was like the sound of nature, which made him happy physically and mentally.
"Shu'er, call again."
"Brother Zheng... Brother Zheng..."
Yu Zheng's blood surged and he became more and more excited.
After a good time, Yu Zheng contentedly hugged Jiang Shu and fell asleep.
Jiang Shu was exhausted and curled up in his arms like a cat.
The weather was getting colder day by day, and Jiang Shu became less active.
After dealing with the chores in the mansion every day, he would read books and wait for Yu Zheng to have meals together.
That day, Yu Lan came to talk to Jiang Shu. After she reminded him, Jiang Shu remembered that Yu Zheng's birthday was coming soon.
After sending Yu Lan off, Jiang Shu started to worry about the birthday gift.
After racking his brains for a long time, Jiang Shu suddenly remembered the fallen leaves he had picked up in Xiangyun Mountain before, and an idea came to his mind.
"Tan Yu, are the fallen leaves picked up in Xiangyun Mountain still there?"
Tan Yu said, "Yes, I washed them and put them in the book to dry according to the princess's instructions. I haven't touched them since."
Jiang Shu's almond eyes lit up: "Go and get them."
"Yes." Tan Yu went as she was told.
Jiang Shu also told Shuang Hua, "Go find a blank scroll, and some scissors and propolis."
Shuang Hua didn't understand what Jiang Shu was going to do, but she didn't ask too much and brought Jiang Shu what he wanted as instructed.
