Fruity Manhua Ting

Chapter 12 Returning to Beijing
Mu Caiwei and Jia Shi sold the basket of apples with words and patterns, and sold out the rest of the ordinary fruits. The group got into the car contentedly, and went home in a mighty way.

Along the way, Jia looked happily over and over at the somewhat yellowed bank note, and kept praising her daughter: "Good girl, you can do it. Mother is not smart enough. All the fruits in this orchard can't be sold." At this price, your basket was sold for 100 taels, which is still cheap, kid."

Mu Caiwei thought of the embarrassment of the two boys when they heard that their master wanted to spend 100 taels of silver to buy that basket of fruit, and their jaws were about to drop from embarrassment. If so, just purse your lips and smile.

Jia stuffed the silver ticket into his sleeve pocket, stretched out his hand to run along Caiwei's glossy black hair, his eyes were full of kindness, "Good boy, next year this orchard will be handed over to you to take care of, let's take care of all the fruits If we grow those with characters, our family will make a fortune."

That's a good thing, but it's not worth the money if you plant too much.

Mu Caiwei thought to herself, but she didn't say it out loud.There may be other tricks next year.

Since Jia Shi trusts her so much, she still has a lot of ideas, next year she has her own ideas for next year.

That night, Jia Shi cooked a large table of sumptuous meals, and even the servants and the family servants were all covered.

There are other fruits in the orchard that are in the picking period, and Mu Caiwei is busy with Jia Shi every day, and has long forgotten the matter of meeting that young man in white who sells fruits in Zhuxian Town.

After finishing his business, Lin Feng abandoned his horse and embarked on a boat all the way south, and arrived in Kyoto within 20 days.

After getting off the boat, he rode his horse to the palace to do business.He had just returned home after seeing the emperor.

Along the way, Lin Feng ordered Si Wen and Si Wu to follow behind carrying the basket.These two young men knew that the young master was really angry this time, although they didn't reprimand them harshly, nor did they scold them, but the more they were like this, the more uneasy they felt, wishing that the young master would beat them up slap.

In this way, they feel better.

Lin Feng rode on the horse for more than half an hour and returned to the mansion. He divided the special products and things he bought from the north into the house, washed up carefully, and then changed into a clean robe. Greet your parents in the room.

Marquis Changxing followed Lin Feng's father's generation, which is already the second generation.According to the rules, if you don't have military merits and don't take the imperial examination, the hereditary title will become smaller with each generation.

This is already the second generation, and since the Marquis of Changxing didn't have any merit, the title has changed from Duke to Marquis.

It's just that the mansion was still built by the ancestors, Nuo Da's courtyard has five entrances and five exits, and it looks really majestic and majestic from the outside.

Lin Feng went all the way south from Tingyuxuan where he lived, passed through the Xikua courtyard, and came to the upper room in Sanjinli - the courtyard where Mrs. Lu, the Marquis of Changxing, lived.

After entering the gate, there are six upper rooms, and the side rooms are complete with ear rooms, which are grand and magnificent.

Birdcages of various sizes are hung on the carved and painted corridors, and thrushes and parrots are chirping inside, full of vitality.

There are no flowers or trees in the yard, and the terrazzo ground is smooth enough to reflect people's shadows.

He straightened his clothes standing outside the door, and then stepped on the terrazzo floor, and stood in front of the door of the upper room.

He said to a girl wearing a green satin vest and a water-green skirt: "Please go back to Madam, sister, and say that I have come to greet Madam."

The girl responded with a smile, and immediately said inside: "Ma'am, the second young master has come to pay his respects."

A low voice of a woman inside said, "Call in."

The girl picked up the curtain, and Lin Feng entered the room respectfully.

The first time I came in from the outside, the light in the room was a little dark.

Mrs. Changxing Hou's face was not happy, and she was sitting calmly on a mahogany chair at the top of the main room, holding a pink porcelain teacup in her hand, flicking the foam in the tea with the tea lid from time to time.

Hearing the movement, he slowly raised his head to look at Lin Feng, but didn't say anything.

Lin Feng hurriedly knelt down in front of her, and said in his mouth, "Son, pay respects to mother!"

Only then did Lu Shi glance at him, and said lightly: "You are really tired after coming back from such a long distance. Go back early and rest."

Lin Feng got up slowly, and took out a box from his bosom, "This is what my son brought back from his errands in the north for his mother. It's not worth anything, so mother can keep it for fun."

Lu Shi didn't take it, but still stared at the teacup, and waved his hands as if he had something on his mind, "Forget it, I'll accept your wish. I'm old, I don't care about wearing anything, I leave it to you Auntie, let's play."

Lin Feng had no choice but to take back the box, took out a cloth bag from his bosom, and said with a smile: "Mother has been rich all her life, what novelty has she never seen? Naturally, such a little trick of the son will not catch the mother's eyes. This is the son's The good fruit brought back from the Daming Mansion is not like this in Kyoto, and my son dared to give it to his mother to try something new!"

Lu Shi didn't like this concubine at all, seeing him giving things over and over again, he couldn't help being a little annoyed, without even looking at them, he said coldly: "Okay, let's put it there."

Lin Feng put the cloth bag on the high table next to Mrs. Lu, and then slowly backed out.

The big girl next to Lu named Caiping quickly came up to open it, took a look and whispered in surprise, "Ma'am, take a quick look, there are flowers on this fruit."

Then Lu Shi turned his head, glanced at it, and said casually: "What are you yelling for? Are you so new to the world after following me? When did I eat or use the things brought by that brat?" ?”

Caiping's face was a little embarrassing, she withdrew her hand and smiled and asked: "Madam taught you a lesson! But where do you put this thing?"

"Isn't it just a few fruits? Who are you going to make these flowers look like? Who knows if there is any poison in them? There is no need to marinate my place, throw it out."

Lu Shi got up and went into the inner room, Caiping ordered the little girl to follow.

After Lin Feng came out from Mrs. Lu, he walked towards the back room that was the last one he entered.

His biological mother, Ning Shi, the concubine of Marquis Changxing lived there.

I have been working outside for more than two months, and I don't know how my mother is doing?
In this family, their mother and son were ridiculed everywhere, even those decent servants did not take Ning's seriously.

After going out for so long, Ning's was the one he was most worried about.He is in this mansion, these people are still restrained, once he leaves, they don't know how they bullied her.

Mrs. Lu never put their mother and son seriously, and she always had a cold face when she saw him, let alone Ning.

As soon as he entered the mansion, he wanted to see Ning Shi, but he was afraid that Lu Shi would be picky, so he resisted having someone send things over first, so that Ning Shi would know that his son was back.
