The general's wife is pretending to be weak again

Chapter 220
Mrs. Mu led the crowd to look around in the garden for a while, and those young ladies had already stepped forward, took the vegetable leaves from the people, and happily fed the small animals.

Mu Qingyu looked at it with bright eyes for a while, eager to try it in her heart, but as the protagonist of the birthday party, she had to put on airs.

At this time, the steward who was receiving gifts at the gate of the mansion came over and whispered a few words in Fang's ear.

The smile on the corner of Fang's mouth deepened.

She said a few words to the steward, dismissed the steward, and walked up to Madam Mu.

"Mother, the congratulatory gift from the general's mansion has arrived again." Fang said with a smile.

Mu Qingyu's eyebrows twitched, and congratulations?

She restrained the joy in her heart, and Shujing followed Mrs. Mu gracefully, neither in a hurry nor in a hurry.

Mrs. Mu gave Mu Qingyu an appreciative glance, and said, "Ask someone to bring the things over and let us have a look."

"I heard that there are many treasures hidden in the general's mansion. I don't know what rare things General Li sent."

"Yes, yes, we also want to open our eyes."

The wives and ladies echoed, and you and I coaxed the faces of the Dingguo Duke's people into glory.

"I'll go right away." Fang walked out courteously.

The servants brought a lot of chairs over and put them under the shade of the trees.

The people in the garden sat and waited, looking at the naive little animals in the distance from time to time, feeling very comfortable.

After a while, Fang led a group of people over.

Behind her, the two of them carried several boxes over.

Beads of sweat appeared on the foreheads of the boy carrying the box, which showed that the box was extremely heavy.

Someone has already started counting.

"One, two, three...twenty, there are actually twenty boxes!"

"Every box is heavy. It's a dowry gift for ordinary people, but that's it."

Everyone was discussing with each other sentence by sentence, all wishing to immediately lift the lid and take a look at what treasures were inside.

Fang waved at Mu Qingyu: "Yu'er, come quickly."

Mu Qingyu looked at Mrs. Mu, and after receiving Mrs. Mu's nod, she walked to Fang's side.

Fang took Mu Qingyu to the side of the first box.

Under Fang's order, the servant lifted the lid.

Before they could clearly see what was inside, everyone was dazzled by the dazzling light.

Mu Qingyu squinted his eyes, and after getting used to the glaring light, he looked into the box again.

I saw that the box was full of gold, no wonder it was so dazzling.

Fang coughed, and it took her a long time to hold back a sentence: "General Li... is a real person."

The two walked to the second box, and when it was opened, it was still a box of gold.

In the next few boxes, in addition to gold, there are also various jewels, jade, and precious leather.

Take any of them outside, enough for an ordinary family to live without worrying about food and drink for a year.

When all twenty boxes were opened, the scene was truly spectacular.

The wives and young ladies of high families are ashamed to smell of copper.

But everyone couldn't say a bad word when facing these twenty boxes.

On the contrary, envy is hidden in his eyes, this is real wealth!

After a long time, someone finally broke the silence: "Could it be General Li who sent the dowry by mistake?"

Many people agreed, "Yes, if it's just a birthday present, wouldn't it be too expensive?"

They don't believe it, but it's just an ordinary birthday gift, so what's the use of such a posture of emptying out the family's wealth?
Although everyone knew that Li Zhao had fought on the battlefield all year round and captured countless spoils, except for the ones handed over to the Holy One, he must have secretly kept some.

Li Zhao's family background is unfathomable.

But no matter how deep the family background is, it can't stand such a toss.

The royal family members have to think carefully about taking out such twenty boxes of heavy and real belongings.

And if he took out so much at once, Li Zhao would not be able to get off the stage if he didn't give out ten times more things when he was hired.

Under everyone's suspicious eyes, Mu Qingyu frowned and asked someone to close the box.

"Third Aunt, these are too expensive, I dare not accept them." Mu Qingyu lowered his eyes, "Third Aunt, please go tell the people in the General's Mansion to take these things back."

Fang pursed her lips, "Okay, the person who brought the gift has not left yet, so I'll send someone to talk to him."

Mrs. Mu just watched quietly, not making decisions for Mu Qingyu.

After a while, the people sent by the Fang family came back, and brought back a dark-skinned man in armor.

The man walked up to Mu Qingyu, touched the back of his head first, and said embarrassedly: "I came in a hurry, I didn't have time to change clothes, so don't blame me."

Mu Qingyu still remembered this person, he should be Li Zhao's lieutenant general.

Qian Yuan glanced at the box and asked, "Miss, are you not satisfied with these? When I go back, I will report to the general and ask the general to prepare another congratulatory gift. Please keep these, miss."

"No," Mu Qingyu said hastily, "These are too expensive, I dare not take them. I'll just leave one box, and you can take the rest back. I appreciate the general's kindness."

Fang echoed, "Yes, these birthday presents are too expensive."

Qian Yuan rubbed his head and said puzzledly: "It's not expensive. The general prepared it after thinking about it for several days. If the lady doesn't accept it, I won't be able to do business when I go back. If the lady doesn't like it, I'll go back and tell the general Just one word. But if you send it here, please accept it."

Qian Yuan's voice was not too loud, and it happened to reach the ears of the onlookers.

Finally someone couldn't help asking: "These are all congratulatory gifts? Did the hired items also get mixed in?"

Qian Yuan finally understood that it was because of this that Dingguo's government refused to accept him.

He smiled boldly and explained: "No, no, the betrothal gift belongs to the betrothal gift, and the congratulatory gift belongs to the congratulatory gift. How can there be confusion? I have other things outside and I don't dare to leave more, so you can accept it with confidence."

After finishing speaking, Qian Yuan left carelessly.

Fang said with a smile: "Since it's all the general's wish, you can accept it."

"Okay." Mu Qingyu had no choice but to say, watching Fang ordered someone to carry the box to Mu Qingyu's yard.

Mo Zhu whispered: "Miss, do you want the servants to go back and watch?"

Mu Qingyu nodded slightly.

Mo Zhu went back together with those who carried the boxes.

Many of those onlookers were red-eyed.So much gold, silver and jewelry can be filled with 48 dowry.

Everyone said that Li Zhao was ruthless, but he did not expect to be so attentive to Mu Qingyu.

Those who were waiting to see Mu Qingyu's jokes couldn't help but envy them.

Mrs. Mu smiled, her eyes full of kindness.Mu
She glanced at Yang Wanyi beside her, and saw nothing but a sincere smile on Yang Wanyi's face, and she couldn't help admiring her in her heart.

Sure enough, Yang Wanyi didn't have any unreasonable thoughts about Li Zhao. Like her grandmother, Yang Wanyi was open-minded, and she was worth dealing with.

"Hmph, it's ridiculous to have never seen the world." A cold female voice sounded out of season.

It turned out that Princess Danyang was attracted by the movement outside and came over.
