The woman replied, "No. On weekdays, this corner gate is the girl who buys daily, the delivery men go in and out, and the girl who carries bao''er with her. Today they have come back, madam, don''t worry. "


    Ke min suddenly thought, "Da Mei, where does she usually go out with bao''er?"


    The woman replied, "well, madam, don''t you know? Two steps outside the corner gate, there is a small manor, which seems to be next door to us. There is a peach forest there. Now it is the time for flowers to bloom. The young master likes it very much. When the young master goes out, he will be accompanied by xiaoxiaozi. Don''t worry. " The path is their coachman.


    Ke min nodded and turned back.


    A few days later, the empress sent a message to her and asked her to take bao''er to the palace the next day. She knew that the queen must have something to tell her. So on the appointed day, she dressed up and took Dabao into the palace.


    "See the queen." She saluted the queen in a dignified manner. The Chimonanthus next to her was a little at a loss holding bao''er. She hesitated whether she should hold bao''er and salute the empress, or whether she should put down bao''er and kneel down and kowtow to the empress like the master.


    Ke min saw it and whispered to her, "put the baby down quickly."


    Lamei immediately blushed, put bao''er down, knelt down and kowtowed to the queen.


    Ke min pulls bao''er in front of him and asks him to kneel down. He naively imitated his mother to say hello to the queen.


    Zhuo Xi looked very interesting. She raised her hand and called for exemption. She pulled him to her, held him for a while, and rewarded him with a jade pendant. She asked chunnuan to call mother Wu in and let the brothers play on the imperial concubine''s chair. It happened that Ke min brought some infant toys newly invented by the craftsmen in the mother and baby Museum. After the spring warmth was washed and disinfected, it was sent in to play with the two young CHILDES.


    Zhuo Xi then went to the main seat and sat down, sighed and said, "let the children have their own playmates of the same age. See how happy they are. " Xiao yu''er could only lie in bed and pedal his limbs. Grab something, either put it in your mouth or throw it forward. Now a big brother came to play with him. He could walk and jump, and he could pick up the toys he threw out. Not to mention how happy he was, he giggled.


    Ke min nodded and said with a smile, "who said no? For a few years, children and their world may be completely carefree. " Although the boy was officially enlightened at the age of seven, which of the most wealthy families did not start to recognize characters and objects for him at the age of three or four? Besides, the great prince of Tianjia may not be so happy in the future.


    "Bao''er is almost three years old?" Zhuo Xi asked.


    Ke min nodded, "I''ll be three years old in two months."


    "Have you ever thought about his future? He is still young and doesn''t know what his father is, but when he grows up, will you tell him that his father is no longer alive? Or are you going to find him a stepfather? " Zhuo Xi didn''t go around, so she asked her confusion directly.


    Ke min shook her head and said, let''s talk about the future. Who knows what can happen? When I was driven out of the Wu house by the Wu family''s mistress that day, where did I think it would be like today?


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "this is also true. If you don''t stick to the end of life, no one knows what kind of ending you can get."


    This meant something. Ke minfei gave the empress a quick look. Seeing her look as usual, I suspected that I was too worried.


    Zhuo Xi began to talk about business, "now you''re going to run at Xiyan Yangsheng hall and healthy mother and baby hall, but are you tired?" When the mother and baby hall was temporarily independent, she didn''t bother to take the trouble to get a good name, so she casually said the word "health", which was very popular. In the final analysis, the only hope for new mothers and babies, whether as mothers or elders, is health.


    Ke min quickly and respectfully replied, "I''m not tired. Xiyan Yangsheng hall has been on the right track. There''s no need to worry about it. The mother and baby hall is now small and everything is working well. There is only a slight shortage of manpower. I have arranged for people to recruit everywhere. However, after the newcomer is recruited, he still needs training and more training before he can take up his post. Therefore, although we are in a hurry at this moment, we can still withstand it as long as we don''t accept new customers, but we''re just busy. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded and said, "let Hong Quan not be stingy with teaching and cultivate more gold masters, so that we can expand the scale. Although Yu Xin is sitting in the Xiyan Yangsheng hall, after all, in terms of Gynecology, it is still not as good as Hong Quan. "


    Ke min''s face looked different and nodded, "yes, madam."


    Zhuo Xi suddenly thought of what he had just said, and asked with a smile, "Hong Quan is old, isn''t he? Why didn''t you expect to get married and have children? "


    Ke min immediately stiffened on her face, raised two suspicious red clouds and murmured, "people''s daughter, I don''t know."


    Zhuo Xi''s eyes flashed and asked, "can there be picture books in the mother and baby museum?"


    Ke min, stunned, "picture book?" What is a picture book?


    Zhuo Xi reached for the picture version of the Three Character Classic and threw it to Ke min.


    Ke min took it, opened it, pondered it carefully, and not only read it softly, "at the beginning of man, nature is good; Similar in sex, far in habit... "


    After looking at it for a moment, her eyes lit up, "madam, is this a children''s Enlightenment book? The pictures are clear, the colors are bright, and the words and sentences are simple and catchy. It is very suitable for children as big as bao''er as an initial enlightenment reading. " Sure enough, it is worthy of rolling over in the mall. You can see its commercial value at a glance.


    Zhuo Xi nodded with a smile and said, "first find some good painters who can write and draw. Copy twenty of these picture books and put them on sale in the mother and baby hall. Each book is priced at 12 silver."


    Ke min took a breath. Is it so expensive?


    Zhuo Xi continued to smile and said, "one instinct is to let three-year-old children understand enlightenment infant books. No matter how expensive they are, they are willing to pay money. Besides, this is unique in the world. Don''t forget to sign the author''s name on the front page of the book. " In case of being copied by the government as soon as possible, it will be impossible to find a person to file a case according to the law. This is intellectual property.


    Zhuo Xi asked again, "this book will soon become an ordinary reading that ordinary people can afford. If he can become a book, do you have a familiar calligraphy and painting dealer to underwrite? "


    Ke min thought for a moment and replied, "Jiangbei Wujia calligraphy and painting is a time-honored brand in Kyoto. You can talk with them." But what is a book? Isn''t it a book? Besides, books, silk and painting scrolls are expensive things. How can they become ordinary books that ordinary people can afford?


    Zhuo Xi smiled faintly. "I heard that the Wu family calligraphy and painting in the west of the city is the largest calligraphy and painting dealer in Kyoto. Even the bamboo slips, silk, pens, inkstones and inkstones in the palace are supplied by the Wu family? "


    Ke min, with a cold sweat on her forehead, flopped and knelt down in front of the queen, "Min Nu, min Nu, damn it. Minnu didn''t mean to hide her husband''s family. After narrowly escaping death that day, minnu has regarded herself as an abandoned woman of the Wu family. She will never have anything to do with the Wu family in this life. In the past three years, people''s women have never had any contact with the Wu family. "


    Zhuo Xi sighed, "get up first. You don''t have to kneel easily. You can see that the Wu family is not only an emperor merchant of calligraphy and painting, but also a scholar and senior doctor of the Xing Department in the third room of the Wu family. That''s a three life Dynasty official. " If Mrs. Wu Sheng hadn''t asked her to beg, she didn''t know that her shopkeeper was so involved with the Wu family. She remembered Wu Sheng''s sharp words at the auction two years ago. She intuitively felt that he was not easy to provoke. Moreover, Mrs. Wu also said that Ke Minsheng''s son is now the only blood of the Wu family''s big house, and he should recognize his ancestors anyway.


    Ke Min said with tears in her eyes, "before she was adopted by yuyimen, Minfu was also the apple of the eyes of the small rich people in Jiangnan. Later, the family was destroyed because they got into trouble with local bullies. People''s women are doomed to death. After escaping, they meet the people of the feather gate, and then enter the life of the feather gate. If you hadn''t accidentally fallen into the water in that year and been saved by the eldest son of the Wu family, would you have been his concubine? Min Nu followed him in Jiangnan for three years, took care of his shop in Jiangnan, took care of his house in Jiangnan, served him and served him. Later, because she was pregnant, she was ready to return to Beijing for childbirth. The eldest lady has always been unhappy with me. When he was about to give birth, he went to liaozhou because of an emergency. Unexpectedly, the eldest lady took this opportunity to make trouble, polluted me, had an affair with the coachman who had been following me, and expelled me from the Wu family. How can I forgive such a humiliation? Besides, bao''er is almost three years old. In the past three years, has he ever come to me? " Now, why did Mrs. Wu come to the empress to beg? What do you mean?


    She suddenly remembered what La Mei said a few days ago. Since he had found their place to stay and openly appeared in front of the servants, and made the Wu family beg for the Queen''s face, he must not stop until he reached his goal. Thinking of this, she trembled and suddenly knelt down towards Zhuo Xi, "empress, please help me. I can''t let bao''er leave me. Bao''er is my life. "


    Zhuo Xi looked at him in embarrassment. "It''s hard for honest officials to break the housework. Anyway, bao''er is the blood of their Wu family after all." If the Wu family wants bao''er to recognize her ancestors, even if she is a queen, she can''t interfere.


    Ke min was stunned and tears flowed out. Yes, even the son of heaven can''t stop people from recognizing and dating.


    Zhuo Xi reminded her, "Wu Sheng is in charge of the Ministry of punishment. He is afraid that it is difficult to reverse his familiarity with the law and clan ethics for a while. If you don''t want to separate from bao''er, have you considered taking bao''er back to the Wu family? "
