farming female castellan

Chapter 207

Sitting on the carriage, Shi Qingwan sighed softly: "I lost my composure today. When I saw that Fengyiqin, I almost lost my words. I tried my best to hold back and acted calmer."

Maid Xiangxue smiled: "It's normal to be excited, it's one of the top ten famous pianos. Scholars yearn for a good inkstone, and rich women yearn for a good piano. Miss Chen is calm because she still doesn't understand the value of that piano. "

Shi Qingwan also smiled: "You can comfort people. She doesn't care about Qin, but I do care about Qin. If I care about some things, I will inevitably be restricted."

"Those adults didn't give you an inkstone?"

Shi Qingwan shook her head lightly: "Our first visit, those adults are just being polite to us, how can we attach great importance to gifts? It is the Chen family who officially received the gifts from the adults only yesterday. They have spent so many days at home, and they are only the ones in charge of reception."

"Qijiadu is a temporary residence. Wangjiadun is the place of household registration and the main house on the homestead. It is reasonable to give gifts only here. After all, Fengyi is a famous piano, so how can I give it away casually? ?Maybe it was Zhongshu who let the adults know about Miss Chen’s melody, appreciated their high-yielding grain, and was satisfied with their hospitality, so they gave them more expensive gifts. If they give gifts directly when they arrive at Qijiadu, at most Some pastries and cloth from the capital are just for a walk.”

"Today's visit to the adults went well. If the Chen family doesn't let us visit, we can't force it. Open the box and have a look, I haven't seen that piece of jade yet."

Xiangxue found the box and handed it to Shi Qingwan.Shi Qingwan opened the box and was stunned.

"What's wrong?" Xiangxue moved her head closer and was also stunned.

"High-grade jadeite. Sure enough, the Liu family should not be underestimated." Shi Qingwan took a deep breath.

"The color is really beautiful, bright and colorful, and the head of the water is also good." Xiangxue praised.

"Some time ago, the new jade pendants of the two masters of the Liu family were all dark green, and the jewelry added by the two Mrs. Liu were all red," Shi Qingwan said.

"It is said that the heaviest greens are imperial green and emerald?"

"Their colors are a little lighter than the imperial green, which is not out of line. I don't know what my brother's one is like."

After getting off the carriage, Shi Qingwan asked about the color of the jade.Shi Qingxiao happily showed the box to her.

It is a darker color than hers, which is very suitable for a 20-year-old young man.

Shi Qingxiao also saw her jade: "This color is very bright, it will definitely make my sister more beautiful."

Shi Qingwan smiled: "We got two expensive gifts."

The children of the Liu family have all returned to the city, and it will be Lidong the next day. They will come back to meet their elders, and Liu Huaijin will also go back to the academy to study.

Aunt Xie held her son's inkstone and couldn't put it down: "Is this really a gift from an adult?"

Liu Dingkang nodded excitedly.

"This is terrible. This is a gift from the officials of the capital. Let your classmates take a good look at it."

"Don't, don't, don't make it public. If the adults are unhappy, we will be in trouble."

Aunt Xie was frightened.

"Your fifteenth brother also owns an inkstone?"

"Boys are all inkstones. His and Chen Zhonglin's inkstones were given by Zhongshuling."

"Why?" Aunt Xie was unhappy.

"They study best." Liu Dingkang was very calm.

Aunt Xie looked at the inkstone in her hand, she didn't seem to like it that much anymore.Liu Dingkang saw it in his eyes, without showing any signs of expression.

"We girls all have a flute." Liu Ruhui handed it to Aunt Xie.

Aunt Xie boasted a few words without interest.

"This is the fabric sent by the young master and daughter of Shi County Magistrate's family. Sister Chen asked me and my fourth sister to bring back one each."

Aunt Xie looked at the material happily: "The color is really well dyed, and the material is also good. The Liu family still needs to improve."

Ruhui immediately praised: "Auntie is so kind, she always thinks that the Liu family can make further progress."

Aunt Xie herself didn't realize that layer, so she couldn't help laughing.

Women and children gathered in the old lady's room.Huaishan gave the three pieces of material to the old lady and said, "Sister Chen asked me to bring them to my grandmother, aunt and mother." Several aunts looked at them eagerly.

"This is the material given by the county magistrate's son and daughter." Aunt Zhao's tone was a little sour.

"Then give you one?" The old lady glanced at her, and Aunt Zhao fell silent.

"Tomorrow in Lidong, Dingkang and Chenfeng are going to visit the master in the school, have you prepared gifts?" the eldest wife asked the two children.

"It's all ready. Master Tang gave us a big bag of pens." Liu Chenfeng said.

The whole room was silent.Is this wholesale?Should this gift be said to be precious or not?

The old lady laughed loudly and said, "This is an expensive gift. It is a pen from Mr. Tang from the Household Department. It is not easy for ordinary people to get it. Mr. Tang can take out a big bag, but it will give us the face of the entire Liu family."

Everyone laughed.

Yan Shoulu was also teasing Tang Chaoying: "What do you mean by that big bag of pens? Do you know how expensive it is? It seems like you don't need money."

Wu Zhongsu said with a smile: "It really doesn't seem like money is needed. In the capital city, there are only a few people sending it around, and there are only a few brands. Strangers can't just give it away. It's different in Yuanfeng County."

Zhang Jiuyan also laughed: "His family's pens are about to pile up into a hill?"

Tang Chaoying was unhappy: "Didn't I also give away a mountain of pens?"

Everyone laughed.

"Do people in Yuanfeng County know how expensive this sum is?" Yan Shoulu asked with a smile.

"Master is more or less knowledgeable, and Yuanfeng County is not a poor county." He Lin took his words.

Yan Shoulu jumped up suddenly: "Those dolls seem to be running, but they didn't come to call me."

As he spoke, he was about to rush out, but was grabbed by Zhang Jiuyan.

"Old man Zhang, you dare to drag me?" Yan Shouyan turned his face.The officials watched the excitement.

Old man Zhang continued to tug: "Let the children be happy for a while, don't scare them."

"What do you mean?" "Sit down." Two voices rang out at the same time.

Said that it was Zhong Shuling who sat down, Yan Shoulu sat down.

"The person from Cui's family may be here soon, so you can go for a run with him." Zhong Shuling said.

"Cui's? Cui Yongning, governor of Gyeongju? What's his son's name?" He looked at Wu Zhongsu.Wu Zhongsu told him: "The youngest son is called Cui Yunlang."

"He's here because he wants to find something to do for him." Yan Shoulu smiled badly.

Two quarters of an hour later, Cui Yunlang really arrived.After exchanging some pleasantries, Yan Shoulu took him for a run.

"Show them a village and let them run." Zhong Shuling spoke.Tang Chaoying immediately opened the map of Yuanfeng County.

The two men were dismissed, and the officials continued to write the report.

He Lin suddenly asked, "Where did the [-] catties of grain go?"

　There are only two updates today, and I'm still in a rush to work.
