happy event

Chapter 66 Rare is more expensive!

Dong Ping glanced at the four "Wan Shou Wu Boundless" apples placed together inadvertently, and immediately coughed up, blushing from holding back, but still asked, "Sister... sister, those four words... Wan... ..."

Dong Rong stretched out her hand to help him pat the back twice, and asked, "Longevity? Whoever buys it will be beheaded by the whole family!"

Dong Rong swiftly covered the remaining apples with a cloth curtain and pushed them to a corner to hide them, then replied, "I didn't intend to sell them to ordinary people, and the emperor's fiftieth birthday will be in one month. It is said that those rich and powerful who are worrying about what to give the emperor for his birthday, if they see this apple with auspicious writing...hehe..."

Dong Rong didn't finish speaking, but Dong Ping almost burst into flames when he heard it, and praised happily, "Sister, you are so smart!" After finishing speaking, he remembered something again, "Sister, are you going to Who will go to Kyoto to sell fruit?"

Dong Rong was stunned, she really didn't have time to think about it.Originally, she was looking forward to being able to go out for a walk, but as a woman, it was inconvenient to go out, and with all kinds of trivial matters in the orchard and the small courtyard outside the city, it was not easy to leave for too long.But if I let Shazhu go, I'm afraid that with his straightforward temper, not only will he not be able to get the money back, but even himself will be involved.After thinking about it this way, this candidate is really a big problem.

Seeing his sister frowning, Dong Ping carefully tried to suppress the excitement in his heart, "Sister, why don't I go."

"Are you going?" Dong Rong shook her head again and again, "It's a full distance of seven or eight hundred miles from here to the capital, and it takes more than half a month to go back and forth. In addition, looking for an opportunity to sell fruits will take a month's work. The one at the academy What about your homework? Besides, you're too young, and you haven't traveled far, so I don't worry about it."

Dong Ping liked to read some miscellaneous books on travel notes since he was a child. He was envious of those hermits who traveled all over the famous rivers and mountains. Now he suddenly had the opportunity to go out of Qing County to the capital of a country, and it was to help his sister do business. How could he give up so easily?

"Sister, I will ask my husband for leave. You just agree, I will keep it to avoid causing trouble!"

Dong Rong is not afraid that her younger brother will cause trouble, she is more likely to take the initiative to find her brother in fear of disaster!Although she has never traveled around the Daqi Kingdom, there are still many dangers in the developed modern society of her previous life, not to mention the underdeveloped transportation and unsound laws.My younger brother is already pretty and innocent, so if he encounters some bad guy and becomes ill-intentioned, wouldn't it be a robbery of wealth and sex?Apples can be planted again, but my brother has nowhere to look for them!
"No, absolutely not." Dong Rong shook her head like a rattle, no matter how much Dong Ping begged, she would not agree.In the end, Dong Ping sat at the table in great frustration and did not speak, but Sha Zhu had seen enough excitement, and suddenly said, "Let Guanshi Zhang go."

When Dong Ping heard this, his eyes lit up immediately, and he yelled loudly, "Yes, yes. Didn't Manager Zhang just come back from the south, and he's been out on business all year round. Sister, why don't you let him go with you?" Let me go together. If you can't trust him, then I will be in charge of the money, and he will just arrange the basic necessities of life."

Dong Rong frowned and thought for a while, but she also thought this idea was good.She has a deep understanding of Zhang Guanshi's shrewdness and ability, but the background of this person is a bit strange, and she needs to try again.

"Don't be too busy asking for leave with Mr. Zhang, I'll talk about it after I ask Manager Zhang."

"Okay, I'll listen to my sister." Dong Ping felt that there was hope for a trip, and agreed happily.It made Dong Rong reach out and knock on his forehead, and said angrily, "Now I know that I listened to my sister, who was the one who made trouble just now?"

Dong Ping blushed, and felt that he was a little childish just now, so he smirked and refused to answer.

After a discussion, the family of three carefully put the apples to be sold into the cabinet and hid them. Silly Zhu volunteered to go to Yu Guisheng to help get the customized wooden box.Dong Rong was naturally happy, she praised him a few words and told him to pay attention to safety on the road before sending him down the mountain.

Dong Ping found the Four Treasures of the Study, writing and drawing excitedly, planning what things to bring out, Dong Rong shook his head and laughed, and finally tied up an apron and went to the kitchen to fry and cook a good meal to celebrate the big apple Harvest!

Besides, Murong Huaide left the orchard and rushed directly to the small courtyard in the east of the village.When Mr. Feng saw the big "Shou" character on the red apple, he was so shocked that he almost dropped the teacup in his hand.

The old man held the apple in his hand and looked at it carefully for a long while, and finally rubbed it vigorously with the fine cloth, then sighed and said, "It is true that there are people beyond people, and there is a sky beyond the sky. Over the years, how many surprises have we all had People, but no one thought that such a miracle could be created by cleverly covering up and blocking the sun!"

Murong Huaide also nodded, feeling very emotional, "The mind is indeed extremely exquisite. I also thought that such a simple method was a bit of a joke before, but I didn't expect that I could really leave writing on the fruit. If this fruit is offered to the emperor, it must be a sacred heart. Joy!"

Mr. Feng carefully put down the apple, pondered for a moment, and then asked tentatively, "Huai De, girl Rong doesn't have any acquaintances in the capital. It might be dangerous to bring this fruit into Beijing. Don't you plan to go and protect it? What's the reason?" The emperor's contribution to offering auspiciousness..."

How could Murong Huaide not know what the old man was planning, he silently picked up the apple and wiped it, then broke the two halves and put it on the table.

Old Master Feng's face immediately darkened, and he sighed lightly.In the end, Murong Huaide laughed and said, "Sir, do you want to taste the taste of this auspicious fruit?"

"You brat!" Seeing his disciple's smiling face, Old Master Feng realized that he had been misled. He was so angry that he blew his beard and stared at him, and was about to throw an apple at him.

"Sir, please be merciful. This is auspicious. How many people want to eat it but still can't!"

"Don't think my old man is easy to fool!" Mr. Feng took a big bite of an apple, and retorted, "Didn't Miss Rong prepare more than 100? Tell her, eat as soon as you want!"

Murong Huaide remembered Dong Rong gnawing on an apple, and couldn't help laughing, "Sir, don't worry about it, she also understands the truth that rare things are valuable."

Mr. Feng really couldn't see his disciple's appearance of doting on his wife first, so he brought the topic back to the original point again, "Are you planning to re-enter the capital?"

Murong Huaide withdrew his smiling face, shook his head and replied, "No, Dong's younger brother has invited himself to Beijing, and I plan to let Zhang Yang go with him. As for... the credit for offering auspiciousness, if that person is interested, he can give it to her."

Mr. Feng was overjoyed, and responded repeatedly, "Of course I intend to. This offering of auspiciousness is a great opportunity to make her name in front of the emperor. When the time comes, she will become a concubine..."

Murong Huaide didn't want to listen any longer, he put down his teacup slowly, got up and saluted, "Sir, I still have something to do, I'll see you again in a few days."

"Oh, good, good." Although Mr. Feng was regretful, he also knew the reason why he couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry, so he smiled and watched his disciples leave the courtyard, and then sighed softly, "Take your time, the blood will die!" Thicker than water."

Dong Rong prepared the meals, put everything on the table and waited for a long time before seeing Shazhu came back with a wicker basket on his back, so she went up to her and complained, "Why did you come back, did you delay on the way?"

Silly Zhu told the truth, "I abducted to old man Feng's house."

Sure enough, Dong Rong didn't ask any more questions, and sent him to wash his hands, and then opened the wooden boxes one by one to check carefully.Yu Guisheng's craftsmanship is already excellent, but this time he got the instructions and made it more detailed. The figures, flowers and birds are all carved vividly.Dong Rong was very satisfied, put away the box and called Dong Ping to eat together.The three members of the family were all thinking about going to Kyoto, and they had no intention of drinking. They just ate a round stomach to reward each other for their hard work these days.

Before noon on the second day, Guanshi Zhang, who received a letter from Mrs. Qiu, came up the mountain.It was the first time for him to visit the Four Seasons Garden. As he walked and looked at it, he couldn't help admiring that the garden is really "although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs."There are mountains and waters, houses and pavilions, all paths criss-cross, seemingly scattered but orderly, surrounded by bushes, completely forming a small world by itself, quiet and beautiful, making people fall in love at first sight Want to grow old here.

Dong Rong was watching Zhao Qingshan and others picking apples. There was little rain this year, but the handymen worked hard and never slacked off carrying water for irrigation. In addition, the sunshine time was long, and the apples produced were big and red, and a bite of juice was enough. Sweet and sour.The handymen secretly swallowed their saliva while they were busy picking. When Dong Rong saw it, she smiled and said, "How can you work so hard to grow apples, but you can't eat apples in the end? I'm not mean to my boss. If you like it, just eat it." , I’ll get a few more for the children at home when I go back at night.”

"Haha, Xie Dong's family, this year's fruit grows well, just looking at it makes me greedy!"

"That's right, I want to take a few bites when I smell it."

Everyone smiled and thanked, and then they couldn't wait to reach out and pick an apple and chew it.Dong Rong was lowering her head and planning to distribute several baskets of fruit to Aunt Cao and others to taste something new, when Sister-in-Law Liu, who stayed in the hut to take care of the door, rushed to report, "Boss, Manager Zhang is here, and I brought him tea."

"Okay, I'll go back right away. Sister-in-law can also stay and eat a few apples, and I'll go back with Zhuzi."

Dong Rong responded, and Sha Zhu who was standing not far away also came over, and the young couple turned side by side through the woods and disappeared.A handyman chuckled while eating, "Our boss's garden has been closed for more than a month. I thought there were golden fruits in this forest, but I didn't expect there to be nothing."

The person next to him also sighed and said, "What a delicious fruit. If the owner hadn't offended the villain and sold it to a fruit shop, it would be worth seven or eight yuan a catty."

Zhao Qingshan happened to come over, and when he heard this, he scolded, "You can't stop your mouths even if you eat fruit, can you gossip about the boss? Whether the fruit is sold for money, the boss will give you a piece of pancake! "

The two handymen bowed their heads in embarrassment, and went to work quickly after eating the fruit.

Besides, when Dong Rong and Sha Zhu went back to the hut together, Guanshi Zhang was drinking tea from a teacup, when he heard the movement, he quickly got up and saluted.Dong Rong stepped forward to give her a hand, and said with a smile, "You don't need to be courteous, Manager Zhang, just sit down."
