The Pretty Eldest Daughter of a Scholar's Family

Chapter 735 An Old Family Is Better Than a Treasure

Maybe it was really urgent, the speed of the chariots and horses was obviously much faster than usual.

There are a lot of people going out of the city at this time. In the past, there would have been a delay, but today it can be said to be a long drive in, oh, it should be said to be a long drive straight out, without any stagnation. Lu Jinkang must have sent someone to come and say hello.

It was only two quarters of the unitary hour when we arrived at Leyou Mountain Villa, that is, around 05:30 in the afternoon. It was midsummer, and the sun was still hanging in the sky at this moment.

However, there are many trees in Leyou Villa. After Su Yunduo took over, he made a special plan. On both sides of the road, tall trees with good sun-shading effects were planted, which not only added color to Leyou Villa, but also brought shade.

Although there is an ice basin in the carriage, in fact, as the carriage travels, the hot summer air keeps pouring into the carriage, so the interior of the carriage is not cool.

Arriving at Leyou Mountain Villa, the wind that entered the carriage outside was finally less hot, which lifted people's spirits, and the laughter from outside made them even more joyful.

When the group arrived at Leyou Villa, they first went to greet Lu Mingyang and An's, but they only saw An's, not Lu Mingyang. After asking, they found out that the old man was inspecting the grain and wine construction site.

"In this hot day, grandma doesn't persuade some grandfathers. What if I get heatstroke?" Lu Jinkang frowned and complained a little.

An gave Lu Jinkang a look and said, "Why didn't you persuade him? If you persuade him, he must be willing to listen! When did you listen to what your grandfather is going to do? Brother Kang, don't worry, now, your grandfather is leaving The owner of the valley will follow there and will not let your grandfather have anything to do."

Su Yunduo knew that Lu Jinkang came this time because he had something urgent to discuss with Lu Mingyang, but in order not to worry An's, he left his guards outside and did not want An to know that Lu Da's guards had returned from the border town.

Lu Jinkang frowned and complained that he was worried about Lu Mingyang's heatstroke, but also because he came in a hurry but couldn't discuss things at the first time, but An's pulled him to ask this and that. Talk to Anshi.

Since Su Yunduo knew the inside story, she wanted to relieve Lu Jinkang's worries. Hearing that Lu Mingyang had gone to the construction site, she happened to be going to the construction site, so she stood up happily and took the herbal tea brought in by the maid and handed it to Lu Jinkang. , By the way, he cast a look at Lu Jinkang and said: "I just want to go to the construction site to have a look. Come on, husband, first drink some water to relieve the heat, and then let's go over and have a look, just in time to pick up grandfather."

The couple came out of An's house and went straight to the construction site of the winery with their personal guards.

However, within half a month, half of the originally rocky wasteland has been leveled out. Everything is difficult at the beginning. Although it is only half, it opens the door for the next project.

Lu Mingyang's resonant voice could be heard tens of feet away from the construction site, and when he looked up, he saw Guzhu sitting in the shade of a tree drinking tea and watching Lu Mingyang "pointing out the country" in his spare time.

Lu Mingyang was facing away from the way Lu Jinkang and Su Yunduo came from, and Gu Zhu was facing him, so he saw Lu Jinkang and Su Yunduo from a long distance away. He put down the teacup in his hand, stood up and stroked the teacup gracefully. The long shirt greeted him: "Didn't it mean that you will come tomorrow, why are you here now?"

The miraculous doctor Gu Zhu obviously said this to Su Yunduo, Su Yunduo changed his mind, then got offended, and said with a sweet smile: "I miss you so much, so I came early!"

The owner of the valley paused, looked at Lu Jinkang, and complained in his heart: "Can this bad girl talk, and I'm not afraid that the people around me will be jealous!"

At this time, Lu Mingyang also heard the movement behind him. When he turned around, he saw Lu Jinkang and Su Yunduo first, and pointed to the construction site with some pride: "How is it? The result is not bad."

As soon as he said this, he saw the guards behind Lu Jinkang, and his expression froze: "Why are you back? But what happened to the border town?"

Lu Jinkang hurriedly stepped forward to support Lu Mingyang: "Grandfather, rest assured, there is nothing serious in the border town. Father and second brother are fine. Father sent Feng Che back to visit his grandfather and grandmother on his behalf, and secondly, he needed to ask grandfather face to face. "

Lu Mingyang is an old man who has guarded the North Border Pass for decades, so he understands that the visit is just an excuse, and something happened in the border town that Lu Da can't solve.

No matter how small the matter in the border town is, it is a big matter, not to mention sending the guards back in person, Lu Mingyang immediately took Lu Jinkang's guards back to the study to discuss the matter without saying a word.

Since Su Yunduo came to the winery to look at the construction site, he naturally wouldn't follow him back.

It happened that Zhang Ping'an and Chunlei news rushed over, and Su Yunduo, accompanied by the two, looked around the construction site and put forward some personal opinions on the current situation of the construction site.

She already knew from the words of Zhang Ping'an, Chunlei, and Gu Zhu that Lu Mingyang would come to the construction site to inspect the construction site almost every morning and evening and solve problems on the construction site.

It is said that from the start of work to the present, Lu Mingyang's guidance has helped the foreman solve many problems.

Although Lu Mingyang's advice is not practical every time, his advice often inspires the foreman, and he can always find a solution to the problem under his advice. This is really "a family with an old man is better than a treasure"!
Lu Da asked his guards to come back to the capital from the border town to ask Lu Mingyang face to face, presumably because of the adhering to the principle of "a family with an old man is better than a treasure"!

It was an hour after Su Yunduo returned to the main courtyard from the construction site, and it was completely dark, but Lu Mingyang and Lu Jinkang were still locked in the study and did not come out.

Before Su Yunduo and Lu Jinkang went to the construction site, they told An Shi not to wait for them to eat, so when Su Yunduo came back, An Shi had already taken the girls for dinner, and asked the kitchen to deliver the meal to the study. .

Seeing Su Yunduo came back now, seeing Su Yunduo sweating all over her body, An's heart ached so much, she urged Su Yunduo to take a shower, and at the same time ordered someone to go to the kitchen to urge her to eat.

After Su Yunduo had dinner, he distributed the gifts brought from the city to the girls. In addition to those prepared by Su Yunduo, naturally the aunts in the mansion asked her to bring these gifts.

Of course, apart from the ones for the girls, there were also missing gifts for the two old men and the genius doctor Guzhu.

"There is no shortage of food and clothing here. Every time someone comes, they have to bring these things. How can they be used?" An Shi stroked the summer shirt made of ice silk satin at his hand, really liking it at the same time. Distressed.

This ice silk satin is a fabric newly developed in the south. The output is very small, and almost all of them are sent to the palace as tributes.

The cost of making such a summer shirt is at least a hundred and eighty taels for the fabric alone, but Su Yunduo made such a summer shirt for her and sent it to her.

Looking at the clothes on Su Yunduo, although the fabrics are also high-quality, they are far inferior to the dignity and coolness of ice silk satin.

The girls naturally saw the extraordinaryness of the ice silk satin, and there was some longing in their eyes. Su Yunduo smiled and said: "The production of this ice silk satin is extremely low, and the first batch is all sent to the palace, except for the emperor, the queen mother and the empress." Only a few high-ranking concubines were given one or two horses. The imperial concubine gave one to the mansion, and the Holy Majesty rewarded the grandfather with one, and made a set of summer shirts for the grandfather and grandmother respectively."

The girls were discouraged when they heard it. They believed that with the abilities of their elder brothers and sisters-in-law, as long as it was available in the market, they would be able to find it and buy it.

But this ice silk satin is not even available to everyone in the palace. At this time, if the Zhen Guo Gongfu has one, it will cause a great disaster for the Zhen Guo Gongfu.

Before appreciating the ice silk satin in the palace, the men Su Yunduo sent to Jiangnan to purchase duck down jacket fabrics had already sent several pieces of ice silk satin to the mansion on fast horses.

The summer shirts sent to An's and Lu Mingyang today were made of this batch of ice silk satin.

Su Yunduo knew how scarce the ice silk satin was when the palace rewarded it. He considered making ice silk summer shirts for An Shi and Lu Mingyang again and again, and put the rest of the ice silk satin in the warehouse for the time being.

Fortunately, this batch of ice silk satin was only made in two colors, and the rewards from the palace happened to be two bolts of ice silk satin of different colors, so there was no need for Su Yunduo to bother to re-sew it, otherwise it would not be decided to bring it today. Come on.

This ice silk satin is cool to wear, but it takes time and effort to sew
The palace rewarded these two pieces of fabrics, Su Yunduo planned to keep the two old people tight first, besides the summer shirts they brought today, they also planned to make two sets of underwear for them, which are currently being handed over to the mansion. The embroiderer hurriedly sewed.

When it's ready, it's time to replace it. This ice silk satin is smoother and more comfortable than silk fabric, and it also absorbs sweat.

The remaining fabric Su Yunduo planned to make a pair of underwear for the girl and son in the mansion, so that everyone can enjoy it.

Of course, to make a pair of underwear for all the girls and boys in the mansion, the remaining fabrics are definitely not enough, and the insufficient part can just digest some of the fabrics in Curry.

By that time, the second batch of tribute ice silk satin must have entered the palace.

What Su Yunduo wanted was this time difference.

"Grandmother is getting old, it doesn't matter what you wear with an old bone, such a good fabric should be made for yourself!" After the girls happily retreated, An Shi pulled Su Yunduo by her side Sitting down, he glanced at the ice silk satin summer shirt and said.

"Why is grandma getting old? Even though we are grandparents, people who don't know think they are mother and daughter. No matter how well grandma dresses up and puts on makeup, it's no exaggeration to say that we are sisters!" Su Yunduo sized An up and down. Shi laughed.

An's well-maintained, and looks a little happy, there are no wrinkles on the face, only the more obvious wrinkles at the corners of the eyes.

Recently, she should have been very comfortable in Leyou Villa. Every day, she soaked in the traditional Chinese medicine hot spring specially prepared for her by the genius doctor Guzhu. Not too much.

Everyone likes to listen to flattery, but what women like to hear most is when others say they are young and beautiful, and Anshi is no exception. Knowing that Su Yunduo is exaggerating, she still points at Su Yunduo and laughs heartily.

This loud laughter really made An look a bit like a young girl.

After laughing, An Shi heard that Su Yunduo's subordinates had sent several bolts of ice silk satin from Jiangnan to the mansion. She had a better understanding of Su Yunduo's ability, but she still specially reminded Su Yunduo to temporarily seal up this batch of fabrics.

Hearing An's reminder, Su Yunduo once again had the phrase "It's better to have an old man than a treasure" in Su Yunduo's heart.

So he told Anshi that he had temporarily sealed the batch of fabrics in the warehouse, and that no one knew that there was such a batch of fabrics in the mansion except the few people who needed them the most, which made Anshi heave a sigh of relief.

The grandparents and grandchildren haven't seen each other for several days, and they don't know how long Lu Mingyang and Lu Jinkang will talk, so An Shi simply asked Su Yunduo to talk with her.

So the grandparents and grandchildren talked from inside the mansion to outside the mansion, and from the capital to outside the capital.

Now that Su Yunduo's business can be regarded as spread all over the country, the news is naturally much better than before. Some news was originally very boring, but after Su Yunduo's "artistic processing", An's smile was always there.

After waiting for a while, Lu Mingyang and Lu Jinkang finally came out of the study.

"What are you talking about, it's so lively?" Lu Mingyang and Lu Jinkang came out of the study, and when they heard laughter from the main room, they stepped into the main room.

"Brother Kang's daughter-in-law told a few interesting things about the south, it was very funny." An stood up to serve Lu Mingyang.

Seeing this, Su Yunduo quickly stood up, and said goodbye to Lu Jinkang and went back to their own small courtyard.

"What did you say to grandma? Look, grandma is happy!" After leaving the main courtyard, Lu Jinkang reached out to hold Su Yunduo's hand and asked curiously.

Su Yunduo pursed her lips and smiled: "It's nothing, just a few things between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the countryside, but let's make grandma laugh."

Lu Jinkang turned his head and glanced at Su Yunduo, the things between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the countryside can make grandma so happy, probably Su Yunduo!
"By the way, I plan to give one of the ice silk satin sent by Jiangnan a few days ago to the second girl. It can be used as a makeup for you and me. Husband thinks it is good?" Su Yunduo remembered that the second girl just saw it. When he saw the longing in his eyes, he raised his head and asked Lu Jinkang.

Lu Jinkang was going to say "you can do what you want", but suddenly remembered that even the queens, princes and princesses in the palace may not have a piece of ice silk satin, but they added a whole piece to Lu Yumin at this time, which is really good ?
Lu Jinkang couldn't help frowning, and looked sideways at Su Yunduo again.

Su Yunduo shouldn't have made such a mistake. Is there any inside story that he doesn't know? !
But seeing Su Yunduo raised her head and chuckled, her porcelain-white face looked even more translucent under the moonlight. Lu Jinkang's heart tightened, and he suddenly felt a little parched, and even Su Yunduo couldn't say anything. listen clearly.

After Su Yunduo finished speaking, he asked a few times, but Lu Jinkang didn't respond, so he felt that something was wrong. He looked up at Lu Jinkang again, and when he met Lu Jinkang's gaze, Su Yunduo's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly dodged to the side, but it's a pity Her speed was no match for Lu Jinkang's, and Lu Jinkang embraced her in an instant.

After the passionate kiss, Su Yunduo's person has almost become Lu Jinkang's pendant. If it weren't for Lu Jinkang's strong support at his waist, Su Yunduo might not even be able to stand firmly at this moment.

After the breath calmed down, Su Yunduo gave Lu Jinkang a look.

This is not in his own room, and he is not afraid of being seen and spread it, not to mention that she is asking him something, but this is what he is thinking about!

Su Yunduo pouted and looked annoyed, Lu Jinkang saw that he was really in love, but he also knew that enough was enough, he tightly hugged Su Yunduo's slender arms and said: "I don't agree with giving the second sister ice silk satin now. The other reason is that the ice silk satin is currently too scarce. Fortunately, there are still more than two months before the second sister gets married. Her ice silk satin is nothing special. It's just for the eldest sister, I'm afraid..."

"This matter is up to my husband, and I will make two preparations. There are other second sisters, so naturally the eldest sister is indispensable." After agreeing with Lu Jinkang, Su Yunduo's tone became a little lighter.

As the elder sister-in-law, Su Yunduo understands the truth that a bowl of water should be flat!
