She married a dying prince and she won three babies.
Chapter 79 Learning to be a Housekeeper
“No, ma’am, I’m just talking to you.
Without you, I would never wake up, let alone anyone else.
From the night you came to my room after our marriage, every time I became aware of the outside world, I listened carefully to you every day, listened to you making pills every night, and felt you giving me acupuncture treatment.
Madam, you were sent by God to save your husband.
I pledge my love to you, Madam, and I hope you will not despise me."
Shangguan Ziqi's gentle words are so touching.
He is too gentlemanly, too responsible, and too good at coaxing people.
Yu Yuanzheng couldn't handle such a confession.
She was screaming in her heart, should she accept this child's strong feelings?
This child probably doesn't understand feelings, he just has a strong sense of responsibility.
I don’t want to think about it anymore. ... can’t stand it.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's get along well in the future." Yu Yuanzheng forced the topic to end.
She always felt like she was standing in the shoes of an aunt, and it was hard for her to adapt to a twenty-year-old boy.
"it is good."
Shangguan Ziqi hasn't slept since he woke up last night. He looked at his wife's sleeping face all night. Another day passed, but he still didn't want to sleep, even though he was already sleepy.
He was worried that he would fall asleep again and not wake up. It was not until he heard the even breathing of the woman beside him that he gradually relaxed. However, he could not resist the sleepiness and closed his eyes in the fragrance coming from his wife.
The next morning, when Yu Yuanzheng opened her eyes, she saw a handsome face enlarged in front of her.
Her eyes were wide open, looking at her, and she smiled, which made her feel very excited.
"Good morning, madam."
"Good morning, young master."
"Didn't we agree to call you husband?"
"Uh, husband, good morning." Yu Yuanzheng walked down the slope.
The two of them got up, dressed, and pushed the wheelchair to the main courtyard to pay their respects to the princess.
Unexpectedly, the prince did not attend the morning court today, but waited for his son to come and pay his respects.
The couple felt relieved when they saw their son had indeed come.
They were also worried that their son would not be able to wake up after a night of sleep.
Just as the two of them finished their greetings, Shangguan Zishu and his wife arrived.
"My son (and daughter-in-law) greets my father, the king, and my mother. I also greet my elder brother and his wife."
"Well, after dinner, follow father to the military camp. Every generation of heirs in my Shangguan family must be both civil and military, and be proficient in military tactics and strategies. You are just starting out now, so you need to work hard." The prince looked at Shangguan Zishu and taught him.
"Yes, my son will remember my father's teachings." Shangguan Zishu felt much more at ease after hearing this.
The king's attitude towards his elder brother did not change even though he woke up. It was still the same as before.
He felt a little relieved.
Although he was not taught strictly by his grandfather and father since childhood, his education was not neglected. It was just that he was not trained according to the requirements of an heir. Now he has to work harder to not fall too far behind his elder brother.
He wanted to be a good heir. Even if his elder brother really got better in the future, as long as he was good enough, his father and the emperor would not change his position as the crown prince.
Today, Shangguan Zishu and his wife rarely stayed in the main courtyard for dinner.
Yu Chaoyang also ate, but she didn't drink the porridge, whether intentionally or unintentionally, I don't know.
Yu Yuanzheng drank it because she took a sip and didn't find any saffron taste.
When the princess saw her drinking it, she knew there was nothing wrong with the porridge and said nothing.
It's rare for the whole family to have breakfast together.
After dinner, the prince and the crown prince left the house, but Yu Chaoyang did not leave either. Instead, the second old lady and Concubine Luo came.
"Sister Princess, it has been more than two months since the Crown Prince's wife married into our family. There are many things to take care of in our palace. The Second Old Lady talked to me about the matter of housekeeping yesterday. Do you think Chaoyang can learn it?" Concubine Luo smiled.
“Yes, Princess, although Zishu is not your biological child, you are his legal mother, so you can’t just be close to Ziqi’s wife.
Chaoyang is also your daughter-in-law, and she's the Crown Prince's consort. Sooner or later, the responsibility of managing the palace will fall on her. It's time to let her learn now, while her belly isn't too big." The Second Old Lady spoke in a rare gentle tone.
They came together to ask the princess to teach Yu Chaoyang how to manage the palace.
This is indeed the duty of a princess.
The princess did not seem particularly reluctant to hear this. Instead, she looked at her two daughters-in-law calmly.
"Has Chaoyang ever learned how to be a housekeeper at home?" asked the princess.
"My dear mother, my mother has taught me and even managed the kitchen procurement for a period of time." Yu Chaoyang answered truthfully.
In a mansion, the kitchen is the most important place. People need to eat every day, and they need fresh ingredients, so the kitchen needs to buy things every day.
A prefecture has a large population, and the daily expenses are very high. It is also the place with the most money.
"Has Zheng'er ever learned how to be a housekeeper in the mansion?" the princess asked Yu Yuanzheng gently again.
"My dear mother, no. The uncle's mansion has always been managed by my eldest aunt. Our second branch has nothing to take care of. Only mother is in charge of her own dowry shop and the dozen or so servants of our second branch." Yu Yuanzheng answered truthfully.
This is the difference between the eldest daughter of the royal family and the illegitimate daughter of a concubine. Both their knowledge and education are completely different.
It was already quite good that the original owner could read. Fortunately, she could read, otherwise Yu Yuanzheng would have a hard time pretending.
"Then Mother will teach you as well. From now on, you will be in charge of the affairs of your courtyard. When Mother and your father are gone for a hundred years and the family is divided, you will be the one to take charge of the family you and Ziqi share."
"Mother, this is something your daughter-in-law doesn't like to hear. You are not even forty yet, and there are still at least forty more years before you turn a hundred." Yu Yuanzheng said deliberately in a playful manner.
And with her around, it's not impossible for the princess to live to be seventy or eighty.
Now that there is no messy pollution, the possibility of getting cancer is not high. As long as it is not a terminal illness, she can find a way.
"You, child, only know how to coax your mother. Can you read the account book?" the princess asked again.
"Never seen it." Yu Yuanzheng's words made the princess frown.
"Princess, she has never even seen an account book. We can teach her slowly later. It is better to teach Chaoyang first. Her belly will be big in a few months. Then she will have to take good care of the baby and will not have time to learn." The second old lady looked at Yu Yuanzheng with disdain.
Sure enough, I can't get on the stage.
"It's okay, mother will teach you from the beginning." The princess wanted to take Yu Yuanzheng with her.
"Zi Qi, go to the outer study and read. Yuan Zheng, your mother asked her to stay for the whole morning. She has been married for more than two months, but she hasn't even taken over the affairs of your courtyard yet. Nanny Ye is still in charge." The princess instructed her son again.
"Yes, mother, my son went to the study to draw a pattern, and my lady asked me to embroider a purse for him." Shangguan Ziqi glanced at Yu Yuanzheng and said with a smile. The happiness on his face could be seen by everyone.
"Really? That's great, go ahead." When the princess heard that it was about embroidering a purse, her smile became even more loving.
Embroidering a purse for your son is a token of love.
The princess is very happy to see that her son and daughter-in-law have a good relationship.
After Shangguan Ziqi was pushed away by Qingfeng, only the woman was left in the hall.
The princess began to deal with the affairs of the palace.
The second old lady and Concubine Luo did not leave either, but stayed to see how the princess taught her two daughters-in-law.
Zhao Mama first brought in a box of account books and asked the two to do some calculations. These were from last month, perfect for them to practice.
That is, the first step is to test their arithmetic ability, which is the most important skill.
Yu Chaoyang took out a book from the box, then picked up the abacus prepared by Nanny Zhao, and began to clatter the beads.
Yu Yuanzheng also took an account book.
After flipping through a few pages, I remembered it quite clearly, including what I bought, how much, and how much I spent.
Turn to the last page, which is where the total is written.
This account is full of expenses and no income.
This kind of account is very simple, just add it up.
But there is still a lot of data, one book has about a hundred pages, with about ten items on each page, all recorded in vertical format.
After reading a few pages, Yu Yuanzheng understood.
She also picked up the abacus next to her and shook it twice, but she didn't know how to use it.
Yu Chaoyang next to him had already counted several pages.
"What's wrong?" The princess saw that she hadn't moved for a long time, so she walked over and asked.
