Chapter 40 Warmth

Chapter 40 Warmth
Xiao Ze looked at Kouzi's nervous expression, and suddenly there was a smile that turned all sentient beings on his face. Although Kouzi said that he had served Xiao Ze since he was a child, his heart still beat suddenly when he saw the almost monstrous smile of his master. Accelerate, bang, bang, jump non-stop, the master is so beautiful!Button once again said secretly in his heart, he only dared to say this secretly in his heart, he never dared to show the slightest hint in front of his master, because the button knew that what his master hated most was being praised for his beauty.

"Okay, button, haven't you heard that harm can live for thousands of years? Your young master, I have not harmed the world enough, and it's not my turn to harm Lord Hades. Let's go..." After finishing speaking, Xiao Ze flicked the golden sable Cloak, turned around and walked out from the back door of the meditation hall, and went straight to the meditation room of Master Hongyuan, the abbot of Tanjing Temple.

After finishing the seven-day ceremonies, Du Hai and his daughter Du Heng bid farewell to the masters of Tanjing Temple, boarded the car and set off for home.Today is the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month. According to the rules, the family should have a reunion dinner in the evening.In the past, when Du Dahai was not in the capital, there was never a seat for Du Heng at the reunion dinner on Xiaonian, not to mention Xiaonian, and even Du Heng was excluded from the New Year's Eve feast. The old lady and Mrs. Su would pretend to mention Du Heng, and soon some servants would exclude her from the family banquet on the grounds that the eldest girl was unwell, so for seven years, Du Haihai did not talk to the eldest daughter. Had a meal.

Ever since facing his eldest daughter, Du Dahai has been thinking about the few days he spent in the mansion in the past seven years. Based on what Du Dahai thinks, he can hardly find any memory related to his eldest daughter. The more Du Dahai thinks about it, the more he regrets it. Ashamed and ashamed, he felt more and more sorry for his daughter. At this time, he only had one thought in his mind, and that was to double compensate his daughter.

Because of this idea, Du Dahai did not order his servants to drive the carriage back to the General's Mansion, but took Du Heng to the most prosperous Jingxi Street in the capital. There is an alley with cat ears on Jingxi Street. Dozens of shops sell all the things that women need, and they are all top-notch goods. Mao's ears alley is the most popular alley for women's families in the capital. Because women's families come and go frequently, Mao's ears alley is also called daughter Today, the old Beijingers hardly know the name Maoer Hutong unless they are elderly.

"Ruo'er, get out of the car." Du Dahai got off his horse and came to his daughter's car and said through the car curtain. Du Heng heard the noise of people outside the car and couldn't help feeling strange. She remembered that there was no such noise in front of the general's mansion. "Have we arrived yet?" Du Heng asked Aunt Liao in a low voice.Nanny Liao opened a corner of the curtain, looked at it and said with a smile: "Girl, this is the daughter's street, the master is really careful, this is for the girl to go shopping."

"Daughter's Street?" Du Heng frowned and repeated, she didn't know what this place was.Nanny Liao didn't say much, she just took out a gauze and put it on for the girl, and said with a smile, "Young lady, you'll know after shopping."

Du Heng nodded, Mammy Liao opened the curtain of the sedan chair, Du Heng stepped on a low stool and got out of the carriage, looking at the older girls and younger daughter-in-laws coming and going, she was at a loss for a while, she was used to being deserted all these years, so I really can't get used to it I saw so many people.

The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and it is a good opportunity for young girls and daughters-in-law to try their best to dress themselves up. Although those relatives and relatives can call the shopkeepers of each shop to the house to buy jewelry, clothing, cosmetics, etc., but any woman I have a natural hobby of shopping, and asking people to serve in the mansion is not as fun as shopping in person, so the daughter's street is several times more lively than usual, and all the people who come and go are girls wearing veils and young daughters-in-law, older Most of them are women who serve the master. The really old grandmas and wives still don't come to go shopping in person. After all, they still have to host the master at home, and they don't have the leisure time.

"Ruo'er, it's New Year's Eve, you need to add more clothes and jewelry. The shops in Daughter's Street have everything. Father will buy you whatever you like, regardless of the price." Du Dahai said to Du Heng with a smile.

"Ah..." Du Heng looked at her father in surprise, she really didn't expect her father to even think of this.Nanny Liao wiped away her tears with joy, but the little girl Yangmei's eyes are no longer enough, this daughter's street is so lively!

"Go, go, just pick the ones you want!" Du Haihai waved his hand, with a touch of pride in his voice, as if buying things for his daughter gave him a sense of accomplishment.

"Girl, Caishangfang is the largest and best ready-made clothing store in the capital. Would you like to go in and have a look?" Mammy Liao knew that her girl had never gone shopping, so she relied on her memory and the discussions of the servants in the house. Experience is recommended.

Du Heng nodded slightly, and walked towards Caishangfang.A neatly dressed young guy with a big smile on his face quickly ran out to greet the guests, only to hear him shout warmly: "Hello miss, please come inside, we have newly arrived Jinling Yunjin Huzhou silk Hangzhou multicolored satin... ...Please take a look inside..."

Du Dahai suddenly remembered something, he took two quick steps and asked loudly: "Man, do you have any good leather in your store?"

When the boy saw that Du Haihai was wearing a sable cloak, his eyes lit up. There are rules for who wears what kind of leather. No matter how rich he is, he can't wear sable even if he doesn't have a certain status. , He quickly ran forward and said with a smile to Qian'er: "My lord, please take care of me, but it's a coincidence that our store just bought a batch of excellent leathers from outside the customs yesterday, please come to the store to choose slowly?"

Du Dahai hummed, walked to Du Heng's side and said, "Ruo'er, let's go, let's go to see Pizi first."

After Du Heng came to his senses, she had already sat in the small hall on the second floor of Caishangfang, and the one who came forward to greet her was no longer the young man, but two women in their 30s and two maids in their teens. .

"My lord, the shop has squirrel, ermine, lynx, sable, black fox, snow leopard skins, etc. I don't know which one you want to see?" A woman neatly offered a bunch of skins for Du Haihai to choose from.

Du Dahai was born as a hunter. He knew leather. After thinking for a while, he said, "Forget about squirrels and ermines. Take your best sable, snow leopard, and lynx skins. If you have silver foxes, blue foxes, and red foxes, take a few." Come out and have a look."

As soon as the woman heard it, she knew that a connoisseur was coming, she responded with a smile and went down to pick the skin herself, instead of telling the little maid as usual.

About a quarter of an hour later, four strong women came up holding many furs. Du Dahai only glanced at them, then pointed to those furs and said, "These four sables, those three lynx skins, and There are a few pieces of silver fox and fox fur left, by the way, do you have golden mink in your shop?"
