Chapter seven hundred and thirteenth gift

Chapter 713: Return gift

That night, in the bedroom of General Luo’s mansion, the old lady Luo Qi was served by the maid Chunxiang, and the old lady Luo was slowing down.

"Huh? What kind of object is this? Why..." Sitting on the couch, my body touched the softness on the couch. The old lady stood up slowly in surprise, reached out to touch the soft and comfortable quilt on the couch, and asked Chunxiang in surprise.

The soft touch of Luo Fei brocade and fur are soaked with warmth. It is something that Luo Qi has never seen before. What is the thing wrapped between these two silk cloths?

"Reply to the old lady," when they saw their wife ask, Chunxiang bent over and replied softly: "It was a pair of quilts sent by Butler Luo himself, and said that it was given to his wife by Mr. Liu from the West Courtyard and others to bed."

"Oh? Is it Brother Liu and the others?" Nodded gently, and the old lady sat down on the couch again, feeling the warmth brought by the quilt on the couch, and sighed softly, "I know that my body is weak and cold, and I can't sleep at night, and I have found such a novel thing for my body. Brother Liu and the old couple are interested."

"However," the old lady continued, and said, "A rare thing like this is far from ordinary wealth, and can be exchanged for things. In this cold weather, the old couple are covered with ordinary quilts. How can they enjoy this warm treasure with their own face? Let's take it a little later and let Axiang send it back to Brother Liu."

"Madam, don't worry," he knew that their old lady would have such thoughts. Chunxiang took the warm water for foot washing from the servants of the outside world, leaned over and put it lightly under Luo Qi's legs, and said with a laugh: "Butler Luo has already asked clearly that although this kind of quilt is novel, it is not a very precious thing. Today, he serves as the manager of the son-in-law's house, and he will send two pairs at a time. Mr. Liu and Mrs. Liu and the others left a pair, and the remaining pairs were sent here by others."

"Oh?" He looked down at Chunxiang, and Luo Qi looked disbelief: "Don't miss me, you girl. Such a soft quilt is warmer than a fox fur. How could it be an ordinary thing? Could it be a joint with Axiang and the others to deceive me?"

Although the population of General Luo's mansion is not strong, his family status and status are also prominent. Every year, there are many rewards given by the emperor and the empress in the palace. In addition, Luo's family is from a prominent family. After decades of influence, his eyesight and knowledge are naturally good. Whatever is good or bad, you can see clearly with a glance.

Especially, the most common utensils like jewelry, clothing, teacups and tea bowls, her heart is like a mirror. The quilts on the couch today, whether in terms of texture, feel, or the actual effect of keeping warm, are all things she has never seen in her life. If she says that such objects are not precious, the old lady doesn't believe it.

"The old lady was joking, even if Chunxiang was brave enough, Chunxiang would not dare to deceive the wife." Seeing that their wife did not believe it, Chunxiang was a little anxious and said to their wife in a panic: "When Chunxiang went to call water for her wife, she heard the words of the servants who were serving in the West Courtyard. This kind of quilt, which was called "quilt" by the Liu Mansion, was all made of 'white folds' woven. The 'white folds' were planted in our mansion before, and it was passed down from Gaochang, the Western Regions. It was not a rare thing. In the past, it could buy dozens of kilograms for a penny."

"Baidiezi?" Luo Qi's mind moved slightly when he heard this. He felt novel before, but he had planted a few flowers and plants in the mansion that could bloom with white floss. Unexpectedly, that kind of small thing could have such great uses.

"Why have you never thought about such a good thing before?" Rochess sighed softly again, stroking the quilt on the couch again.

"Who said no," Seeing that the old lady stopped asking, Chunxiang relaxed and continued to squat down, reached out to take off the shoes and socks from the old lady's feet. After exploring the water temperature, she began to carefully rub the old lady's feet: "If you want to say that the son-in-law is the most smart. He started to collect white folds in Gaochang as early as a month ago. I heard that in Sanyuan, the entire Gutian Liu Mansion has turned into white, and the white folds are piled up, and there is no boundary at all."

"Oh? Haha, I'll just say that, how could anyone else do this except that boy?" After hearing what the girl said, Luo Qi felt relieved. It seemed that once something strange and strange happened, it would become more normal once her baby son-in-law's hand was handed.

"Since they are so dedicated, what's the point of helping them more?" The old lady soaked her feet in hot water. The old lady squinted her eyes comfortably, stroked the soft quilt on the couch with her hands, and said softly to Chunxiang: "Chunxiang, put this quilt away later. Go and say to Axiang's junction, and ask him to send this quilt and supplies into the palace overnight and give it to Empress Changsun."

"Grandpa, we will arrive at Sanyuan's territory soon. Should we go to Sanyuan's office to see Liu Ertiao first, or should we rush to Gutian Liu's office to investigate the farming on Mr. Liu's mansion?" Seeing that Sanyuan became closer, Su Chenxi, wearing a mysterious long skirt on the carriage, hugged Su Bingren's arm and asked in a tender voice.

"The second son of the Liu family is now the county magistrate, and he is running around for the new farming method. We don't have to bother us anymore." Sitting firmly next to the car window, letting his granddaughter shake lightly. Su Bingren replied with a laugh: "Let's go straight to Sanyuan Gutian, Liu's mansion."

"Well, that's good. I've heard that Mr. Liu has opened a tea garden, and that 'Sanyuan Tea' is mostly produced here. Xi'er was about to go in and take a look." Su Chenxi stared at the Sanyuan County Town near the window outside the window, which was in a daze. Unfortunately, Mr. Liu is not here now. Otherwise, as the previous year, he would have followed his husband to practice calligraphy and increase his knowledge, but it would be good.

"'Sanyuan Tea' is indeed good, and I am very happy. However, this vendor's path is ultimately a path. If the new farming method introduced by the Liu Mansion is indeed feasible, it can be called a way to enrich the country." No matter when, the old man could not forget the responsibilities he had on his shoulders. In a few sentences, the topic was led to the new farming.

"Mr. Liu's ability is not clear, and he can tell that he can do it. Grandpa, please feel free to be 120." The little girl is more confident than her grandfather about this matter: "Even if it is for their second child, Mr. Liu will not joke with the emperor or the people of the Tang Dynasty in this matter."

He is a very short-lived person. How could he push his brother into the fire pit?

"Haha, Xi'er's words are true, for nothing else, just for the second boy Liu. The method of new farming will not be mixed with too much water." Speaking of this, the old man couldn't help but exclaim again: "Boy Liu's abacus is really fine. Just relying on this new farming journey, their second son will have no obstacles in his future career."

With a fire, only Liu Yiyi has become the best in his second son. In today's court, in addition to Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling, only Liu Yiyi has the ability to do this.

"Master, Miss, Mr. Liu's mansion is here." While the grandparents and grandchildren were talking, the car stopped. The old butler Su An jumped out of the front of the car and reported to the grandparents and grandchildren in the car. Then he reached out to take a saddle stool to put it in front of the car, lifted the curtain and asked the two to get out of the car.

"It's a year since I'm apart, I don't expect that the Liu Mansion is as big as a servant!" After getting off the carriage, looking at the Liu Manor, which is more than twice as big as the entire Gutian Village, Su Bingren couldn't help but sigh.

"Grandpa, look, aren't the ones transported by those servants just white folds?" Taking advantage of the space where Su An stepped forward to call the doorman to report, Su Chenxi saw outside the carriage that on the east side of the Liufu Gate, there were some horse-drawn carriages transporting trucks of white shreds into a side yard, and he couldn't help but say to his grandfather.

"Well, I've heard that the Liu Mansion is buying Bai Diezi for a long time, but I don't know what they are going to take for it. Let's go, Xi'er, let's go and take a look." Without waiting for any noise in the Liu Mansion, Su Bingren took his precious granddaughter to the east side of the Liu Mansion.

"Stop!" Before entering the courtyard gate, the group of three people were blocked outside: "The important place of Liu Mansion is not allowed to enter. If there is any problem, please go to the main mansion to talk. If there is nothing, please go back."

The guards guarding the gate were not polite at all, except for the horse-drawn carriages and ox-carts that were coming and going, no one allowed them to enter privately.

"This guy has invited me. Our master is just a little curious and wants to go in and take a look. It will not disturb your mansion's rules. I hope you can do it for a convenience." He quietly put a purse in the guard's hand, and Su An stepped forward and whispered to do something.

"Our master and Mr. Liu are old friends. They are not considered outsiders. I would like to ask the guy to make some compromises." Su An was able to use all the tricks used in front of other mansions. However, the guard in front of him seemed to have not heard it at all. His expression was still the same. He did not charge money or treat him. He still said that the idle person was not allowed to enter, and he refused to give in at all.

"Master, look..." After a few exchanges and temptations, Su An had to be defeated. He came back helplessly and asked their master for advice. After running for so many years, it was the first time that an old man had encountered a servant like the Liu Mansion who was not in trouble.
