The Empress of the Qing Dynasty is from the Northeast

After Laba Festival, we officially start preparing for the Chinese New Year.

Fu Jin has been very busy these past two days. Thinking that Yierha has grown up, she will be thirteen after the Chinese New Year, and the dowry has been almost saved for her in the past two years, she thought of handing over some trivial matters to her so that she can learn how to manage the household.

Yierha naturally knew that Fu Jin did this for his own good, so he followed her obediently and learned from her, and gradually he also gained some of the authority of a master in charge.

Hutuli has been learning how to be a housekeeper from Changning. Currently, she can manage all the affairs of Qingzhi Court in an orderly manner, and she is also quite capable in dealing with people.

Nowadays, among the guests who come to visit Qingzhiyuan, some who are not convenient for Changning to see will be brought to the side rooms and asked to be accompanied by Hutuli.

As a result, the two female masters in the mansion felt a little more relaxed, and the two princesses took charge of some of the affairs in the mansion.

Song Gege was naturally happy to see this happen. Seeing her daughter becoming more and more powerful and more and more like the eldest daughter of the Fourth Prince, she could feel more at ease even after she got married.

After all, the family that her daughter would marry in the future was from the Ulanara clan, so Song Gege was very concerned about the relationship between her daughter and her husband. Even if the husband and the prince agreed to their relationship, she would never dare to get too close, for fear of attracting the attention of the wife and making her think that she was greedy and ignorant.

However, Fu Jin was still very generous. She was busy delivering New Year gifts to various mansions these two days and really had no extra time to take care of the children.

At this time, the maidservant beside her came to report that the eldest princess Yierha had her period in the past two days.

This is a big deal for women.

This is a sign of their physical maturity, a symbol of their transition to womanhood, and a signal that they are able to bear children for men.

When Yierha came to Kuishui, she became a grown-up girl, a woman, and could get married.

Fu Jin really wanted to talk to her in person, but she was too busy with affairs and felt dizzy every day. So she called Song over, after all, she was the biological mother of the eldest princess.

Fu Jin held the account book in one hand, sat upright on the throne, and gave instructions to Song Gege beside her.

"Yi Erha had her period two days ago. Logically, it shouldn't be a problem with the guidance of the nanny, but as her mother, you still need to guide her. As you can see, I've been too busy these past two days to spare, so if you have time, go and guide Yi Erha and tell her not to be afraid."

Upon hearing this, Song Gege could no longer sit still: "Yes, Yierha is old now, and it's time for him to understand human affairs."

Then Fu Jin was too lazy to say anything more to her, waved her hand, and let her go.

After Song Gege came out of the main courtyard, she ran towards the courtyard where Yierha lived. This was the first time she went to see her daughter in broad daylight, and she felt a little excited.

Yierha's courtyard was not far from Fu Jin's main courtyard. Originally, she lived with Fu Jin, but since she was told about her marriage, it was not appropriate for them to live next to each other. Fu Jin specially had someone clean up a spacious and tidy small courtyard, and also transferred a lot of decorations from the warehouse, making everything perfect.

As soon as Song Gege came in, she knew that Mrs. Fu had put a lot of thought into it. Even in winter, there was no lack of scenery. A wintersweet was moved into the yard, which was now bright and eye-catching, with a fragrant smell.

Letting her daughter be raised by Mrs. Fujin was the best decision she had ever made.

When the maid at the door saw Song Gege coming, she hurried into the house to report.

Song did not come empty-handed. She also brought two cloaks that she had made for her daughter. The rabbit fur on them was the best thing in her allotment, and it was embroidered with very complex and eye-catching patterns, which made it look decent and noble.

Yi Erha hurriedly asked Song Gege to come in. She was weak and couldn't stand the slightest breeze. Song Gege first warmed up her body in the charcoal basin before coming over.

Seeing this, the maids in the room retreated, leaving space for the mother and daughter to talk.

Song Gege felt distressed when she saw Yi Erha's pale face: "How is it? Is it still painful? Did you make the five-red soup?"

Yi Erha was having her first period, and somehow, the pain was so severe. Although she had heard about this from the nanny around her, she still thought she was going to die when it happened.

Later, it was only after the court physician took her pulse that she was able to calm down a little, but she was always in a state of panic. Now that she saw her mother coming, the heavy stone in her heart finally fell.

I don’t know why, although I hadn’t suffered any injustice, when I saw my mother’s concerned expression, I couldn’t hold back my tears.

Seeing her daughter crying, Song Gege was so soft-hearted that she quickly took a handkerchief to wipe her tears and said gently, "It's nothing. All women have to go through this. You are not getting enough energy and blood. You should drink more five-red soup. Do you have enough charcoal basins in winter? Don't get cold. You can't stand the cold."

Yi Erha knew that she had lost her composure, so she quickly took the handkerchief and wiped her tears, forcing a smile: "I'm fine, mother."

Song Gege tidied her hair lovingly and said, "Our Yi Erha has become a woman now. Mother is happy to see that you are living such a good life now. Fu Jin treats you well, you should also treat her as your own mother and be filial to her. I have seen that everything is in order all the way here, which shows that she treats you sincerely."

Yi Erha's emotions gradually stabilized, and he nodded obediently: "Di'er Niang and Chun'er Niang are both very good to me. I am doing really well, Niang, you don't have to worry."

Song Gege also smiled: "Mother knows, but I just can't help but want to tell you a few things. Tomorrow, mother will make you a few uterus warming bags. When you have your period next time, stick them on your abdomen and it will feel much better."

At this point, she sighed and blamed herself: "This is the problem you brought from your mother's womb. It's my fault. I failed to protect you."

Yi Erha held Song Gege's hand and said, "Mother, please don't say such things again."

Mrs. Song looked at her daughter's determined expression and nodded.

"Fujin asked me to comfort you. Don't be afraid. When you have free time, remember to do some needlework for Fujin."

"I understand, mother."

"Good boy."

Song Gege was very pleased. Seeing Yi Erha hesitated to speak, she asked softly, "What's wrong, Yi Erha?"

"Mother... I heard... the wife of the Prince of Zhi is gone. The eldest princess of the Prince of Zhi's mansion was taken care of, so she got sick, right?"

Song lowered her eyes. She knew her daughter was worried that she would be confused, so she patted her hands and said, "Don't worry. Your father and mother have their own plans and will not let you go."

Yi Erha forced a smile, but it looked so fragile no matter how he looked at it: "Mother, I have been involved in the affairs of the mansion these days, and only then did I know about the special treatment given to us by Qingzhiyuan. I also learned that Father treats us differently from Hutuli and the others."
