Yes, in Baoer's mind, the Fourth Master has long been promoted to a greasy old man. Perhaps he doesn't exercise regularly. Now he has a big belly and a beard just over 30 years old.
His second brother Yinreng, who was three years older than him, looked much older. When they stood together, they looked like two generations apart.
Baoer briefly thought he was worried about not having a son, or perhaps worried about not being favored by the emperor.
I guess since the Fourth Prince is not favored by the Emperor in this life, the Emperor will not grant him a marriage randomly.
Sure enough, a few days later, Yueyao brought the boy she liked home.
Baoer looked at the familiar face in front of her and blurted out "...why is it you?"
"It's me, Sister-in-law Jiu."
Baoer looked at the familiar young man in front of him, who was so elegant and refined. This was none other than Yinlu's younger brother, the fifteenth prince Yinyu.
Because his mother, Concubine Wang, was of low status, he grew up in Concubine De's palace and had a very close relationship with Concubine De's fourteenth prince.
So he often followed the Fourteenth Prince to Baoer's house over the years.
His mother gave birth to three sons for the emperor. They are the current fifteenth prince, the sixteenth prince, and the eighteenth prince (who died last year).
Because of her low status, she was still a small concubine even though she gave birth to three sons for the emperor, although she received the allowance of a noble lady.
The eighteenth prince, son of Concubine Wang, died last year, and the emperor was extremely sad at that time.
Unlike the Fourteenth Prince who loves martial arts and military tactics, the Fifteenth Prince is particularly fond of music and poetry. I heard that he also asked the Emperor to go to Baoer's academy to study this year. Perhaps that was how the two met.
It seems that this young man and Yueyao are a perfect match, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, a talented man and a beautiful woman.
Bao Er suddenly realized, "So the person Yue Yao was talking about is you. How did you two get together?"
Yueyao said shyly, "Sister-in-law..."
Then the Fifteenth Prince said, "Actually, Yue'er and I met on the way to Beijing."
Yue Yao blushed and said, "At the beginning, I was outside the capital and my carriage broke down, so Ah Yu helped me. I didn't expect that when I arrived at the academy, he was also there, so we gradually developed a good impression of each other."
"Oh~ So it's a hero saving a beauty," Baoer said jokingly.
"Since you two are in love, I won't do anything like breaking you up."
"But Xiao Shiwu, I still have something to tell you. I stand on Yao'er's side, so you have to be nice to her."
Yueyao said coquettishly, "Sister-in-law..."
The Fifteenth Prince and Yue Yao looked at each other, and there were pink bubbles between them.
Baoer immediately said he was full.
At this time, the fifteenth prince also said to Baoer solemnly, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I will definitely protect Yue'er from being bullied."
Baoer said expressionlessly, "Well, I don't care what you say, I only care what you do. I will write to Yaoer's brother and family about this. You must also ask for their consent if you want to marry their daughter and sister."
"Of course I understand," said the Fifteenth Prince. "Once I get the consent of Yue'er's father and brother, I will personally ask the Emperor for an imperial decree to grant the marriage."
Baoer saw that he was doing things in an orderly manner, so he said with satisfaction, "Well, I'm glad you understand."
…
After the two young men left, Baoer quickly wrote a letter to Nian Gengyao, telling him about Yueyao and asking him to tell his father as well, as it would probably not be long before Nian's father would go to Beijing.
I have been busy recently and haven't relaxed for a long time, so Baoer invited Qingchuan's family, the prince next door, and Ruoxi's family to have a barbecue in a spacious yard at home.
This is a party they have held frequently in recent years.
When everyone was there, a few children played leisurely while Baoer and the other adults talked.
Several men were busy grilling and chatting, while Baoer and several women were also eating and chatting.
Baoer was eating skewers when she heard Qingchuan ask Ruoxi, "Ruoxi, how's your latest research going? Is it still not working?"
Ruoxi saw that everyone was looking at her, and she smiled, "Not bad, it should be almost done."
After saying that, he looked at Hongxi, the man who was grilling skewers in the distance, and said, "It's all thanks to Hongxi. He found two helpers who know how to do this for me, so it was so fast."
Ruoxi has been thinking about developing something useful in the past two years so that she can be granted a title.
But after all, she came late. Glass, cement, cowpox, increased grain production, even kangs, newspapers, wool, schools, etc. had all been developed by her two predecessors, the Baoer sisters, so she turned her attention to the steam engine.
You know, I have been studying this experiment for a long time, but it was because I didn't pay attention to the specific data when I saw the invention of the steam engine, so the data was always wrong by a little bit.
So I could only try slowly. Now with Hongxi's help, I also borrowed a few scientific research personnel from Baoer, so the research speed has also increased.
Ruoxi was in a good mood and said, "Then I'll show you the steam fan and steam spinning wheel I made."
"The fan is indeed useful, and the spinning wheel can also help everyone weave better, which is pretty good. Later you can also try making cars or something like that," Qingchuan suggested.
Ruoxi's eyes lit up when she heard this. "Yes, there are also wind valley machines, grinding machines and so on. If possible, trains can also be used."
Baoer smiled at her appreciatively and said, "Come on, we believe you can do it. If you need anything, you can ask us for help."
At this time, several men came with their barbecue, and Yinzhen asked, "What are you talking about? You look so happy."
As he said this, he handed the barbecue he made to Baoer.
Baoer laughed and said, "What else? We were talking about Ruoxi's invention."
"Really? It's been such a long time and she hasn't given up yet." Yin'er and the others all knew Ruoxi's arrogant statement back then, saying that she also wanted to research something good and become a baroness through meritorious service.
Ruoxi obviously knew that this was Yin'er's bad taste and that he was teasing her on purpose. For the sake of her good sister, she did not get angry. She only said, "Thank you for your concern, Uncle Jiu. My experiment will be successful." This was a satire on Yin'er's age.
After hearing Qingchuan's words, Yin'er's expression did not change. He was just busy serving Bao'er food and drinks, and ignored her.
Ruoxi curled her lips in boredom, looked at Hongxi beside her, and smiled sweetly.
She was very satisfied with this kind of life. After all, all she wanted was to find a man who loved and cherished her, not to be a woman who was admired in her spare time. This was good enough.
Baoer looked at the three men busying around her and said quickly, "Don't worry about me, hurry up and eat, I've almost finished eating."
When the men saw that this was indeed the case, they hurried to eat the skewers in front of them.
When everyone had almost finished eating, Longkodo, who loved playing, suggested that everyone play a game. This suggestion immediately received Ruoxi's strong support.
Then there was the dare or talent show, which were the usual activities for everyone, but this year Ruoxi and her husband were added to the mix.
After a day of fun, everyone had a great time and felt much more relaxed.
