But Banxian'er couldn't hear it and retorted, "Brother, don't say that, if it's just rabbits and pheasants, that's all. The brown bears and Siberian leopards hunted this time are definitely good things! No matter how much money the Min family and Wu family have, Even if you want to buy it, you can’t!

"Your family just gave it away as promised, but you wouldn't want to leave it in someone else's house! The Min family and the Wu family are only happy to receive such a thank-you gift, and there's no way they would dislike it!"

The old man sighed, "On normal days, it would be like this. But in times of crisis, when people can take the initiative to lend a helping hand, the friendship is so heavy. Our family tries our best to send thank you gifts, but we still feel that it is not enough to repay the thousands of dollars of this friendship. one."

"Your family is really like what is written in the book, a drop of water will repay you with a spring of spring!" Ban Xian'er shook his head, feeling very lucky to have met the Tai family.

When traveling with such a family, you never have to worry about unrewarding for your efforts, nor do you have to worry about betrayal or exploitation.

Tai Jiye got his father's instructions and quickly packed up.

After everyone had finished their meal, one cart was neatly packed with wooden traps, and the other cart was filled with game furs and rabbits and pheasants in cages.

The old man specially changed into satin jacket and trousers, and even put on a new cigarette pot bought by his grandchildren. Since he had never used it once, it looked very clean and elegant.

As for the old cigarette pot that he had replaced, he solemnly entrusted it to his granddaughter.

"Zhuzhu, grandpa is going to the city. I can't take you with him this time because it's very cold on the way back and forth. But grandpa has given you an important task, which is to help grandpa keep this pipe rod. You must not lose it or give it to anyone. . Until grandpa comes back, hand it back to grandpa, okay?"

Zhuzhu was a little depressed at first because she couldn't go to the city to play with her grandfather, but when she heard that her grandfather gave her a big task, she immediately puffed up her little chest and nodded like a little chicken.

"Grandpa, don't worry. Zhuzhu will protect grandpa's pipe rod. No one is allowed to touch it!" She hesitated and then added, "Including dad, mom, and brothers!"

Everyone was amused by the fat girl and laughed, thinking that the old man was coaxing his granddaughter.

The old man rubbed his fat granddaughter's pigtails, got in the car and set off.

Two cars and six veterans are not a huge force, but they are enough to handle the situation.

The journey went smoothly and we soon entered the county seat.

The two veterans followed Ban Xian'er to unload firewood, and the others followed the old man to deliver gifts. The first stop was at Min's house.

Mr. Min met the old man in person and drank tea with him and chatted for a long time. When he found out that the Tai family's thank you gift was a piece of Siberian leopard skin, he couldn't help but be surprised.

"This is too expensive, Mr. Tai. I just sent a few people to help, it's just a little effort. I can't afford such an expensive thank you gift!"

Master Min said this, but he kept touching the smooth and moist leopard skin.

The furs of Beidi have always been famous throughout the Wei Dynasty, but it is extremely difficult to encounter such good things.

Unexpectedly, for a small farmyard, the wolf skins that were given before were pretty good, but now even leopard skins are given!

Mr. Tai didn't hide it and said with a smile, "On normal days, if I wanted to give it away, I wouldn't be able to get such a good leather. But this time, as soon as I went up the mountain, I encountered this leopard and a brown bear fighting. I was lucky enough to pick one up. Luo'er. Of course, this leopard skin is destined to be with Mr. Tai, you can't refuse! Otherwise, this good luck will be wasted!"

Leopard and brown bear fighting?

Master Min immediately asked, "What about the brown bear? Is it dead too?"

Obviously, he was thinking about the brown bear skin again. This was really a bit greedy, which made the steward at the door glance at the master secretly.

Fortunately, Mrs. Min appeared in time with her maid. She prepared two boxes of snacks for Zhuzhu, and brought two boxes of good embroidery thread to Yang Lihua, asking Mr. Tai to help take them back.

Mr. Tai didn't refuse, he smiled and chatted a few words before leaving.

After Mr. Tai went out, Mrs. Min couldn't help scolding her husband, "I've never seen you so greedy. It's just a small favor. Not to mention the favor of corn seeds, he also gave me such a good leopard skin." Come here, we have already taken advantage. You are still thinking about their other brown bear skin!"

Mr. Min was a little embarrassed and replied, "I also thought that good things are rare. I am about to prepare a New Year's gift. Wouldn't it be more beautiful to send an extra brown bear skin to the ancestral home?"

Mrs. Min rolled her eyes at him and said angrily, "The Tai family's carriage is parked outside the door, and some cages are installed. It is obvious that Mr. Tai is going to someone else's house. If my guess is correct, it should be the Wu family."

The Wu family had sent many people before, so how could the Tai family not go and say thank you?

"That brown bear skin must be for the Wu family. Leopard skin is much better than brown bear skin. No matter how greedy you are, you will make things difficult for the Tai family."

Mr. Min suddenly understood and laughed dryly, "Thank you, madam, otherwise I would really be making a fool of myself today. I have a good wife at home, but I am a husband who is too worry-free. In this way, I got a box of pearls a few days ago, and I will have someone give them to you later." Send it over. You and your daughter buy some new jewelry!"

Mrs. Min didn't really want to complain about her husband, so she naturally gave up and went back happily.

Master Min marveled at the leopard skin for a while, then found a set of books in the study and had them sent to the backyard along with the pearls.

The pearls are naturally for the wife, but the book is to be included in the New Year's gift and given to the Tai family.

The boy from the Tai family who studied in the Wu family is now a scholar and is said to be very diligent and intelligent.

This set of books was annotated by a great scholar in Kyoto. It would be a perfect gift to Tai Xiucai, adding another layer of depth to the friendship between the two families!

Mr. Tai didn't know that his leopard skin had given him an extra set of good books for his grandson.

He left the Min family and went directly to the Wu family.

Perhaps because Mr. Wu has an easy-going personality and treats Yongning sincerely, the old man comes to Wu's house more casually.

When he met Mr. Wu, his first words were, "Sir, this old man like me is here to drink again. But I don't drink for free. I have brought you something good!"

Mr. Wu also smiled cheerfully and responded curiously, "Oh? Uncle is very knowledgeable, and there are not many people who can make you praise good things. Show me quickly, I still have Pear Blossom White hidden in my house for thirty years!" "

The two entered the yard chatting and laughing, and Mrs. Wu also came out with her children.

The old man didn't want to delay his teacher's teaching, so he came here at this time. The school had already taken a lunch break. Even Yongning didn’t know that grandpa was coming as a guest!

Mrs. Wu smiled and saluted, and said, "I haven't seen Zhuzhu for several days, and I thought the old man could bring her here! Although this girl has only stayed at home for two days, she has made my brother extremely happy. He has been here for the past few days. I'm talking about Sister Zhuzhu and Brother Ruiyang."

The old man saw the little boy from the Wu family hiding behind his mother, shy and quiet, and he liked it too. He motioned for him to come forward, and then took out a wolf tooth chain from his arms. (End of chapter)
