The so-called "big thing" of the great prince Li is the big boxes piled up with mountains and obstacles in the middle courtyard of the Pavilion, stacked like eight mountain peaks stretching into a magnificent posture of thousands of miles, people can't help but give a thumbs up and praise......
"What a big hand!"
”Li Haitang walked between the big box mountains with his small hands behind his back, looked at this big box mountain, and then looked at the big box mountain, Fan Sakura chattered in her small mouth: "The eight patriarchs' wives are really very good, I just selected the third division by myself, and they sent congratulatory gifts in a hurry, which is really moving." ”As he spoke, he opened the lid of a large box and asked, "Who sent this?"
”Wu Yinling held an account book and said, "Mrs.
Li sent the housekeeper to send it personally, and she also left a congratulatory note and gift list.Do you want to see the big girl?
”"No, you don't."
Li Haitang unveiled the red silk covering it, "I only care if the contents of each big box are my favorite yellow and white things." ”"What if not?"
Wu Yinling smiled sweetly, and secretly sighed that Li Haitang was probably going to be disappointed.Most of the congratulatory gifts recorded in the account books were jade ornaments, jewelry, silk dresses, etc., and there were very few gold and silver items alone.Even the gold and silver coins of Shanggong are made very stingy, not much bigger than soybean grains."
Someone!""
Big girl, please command."
Yang and Li stepped forward to wait for the dispatch, and both of them peeked at the various objects in the box that had opened the red silk.Li Haitang looked at the large and small strange jade ornaments under the red silk cloth, as well as various lacquer boxes and expensive carved boxes, smiled coldly, and pointed to the countless large boxes piled up around him, "Open them all and check them one by one."
Take out the gold and silver I like and put it in a box, and return the rest untouched. ”"Yes, the old slave checked it out for himself.""
Handle with care!""
Yes."
Yang and Li each led two old women to find the boxes where the gold and silver were stored while counting.Wu Yinling followed the two sisters-in-law with the account book in her hand, telling them the records at any time to make it easier to find.Li Haitang turned around and returned to the middle of Zhuge Yi and Li Junshen, "I have a new good tea here, can the two masters stay and taste the tea?"
”"Of course."
Zhuge Yi turned around and entered the middle hall of the Pavilion, sat firmly on the right seat, and waited for the little girl to cook hot tea and serve it.Li Junshen shook his head and smiled, followed Li Haitang into the middle hall, sat on the left seat, and sat opposite Zhuge Yi."
Please wait, two masters."
Li Haitang made a blessing ceremony, and led Qingluo and Mai Miao to the small ear room in the back pavilion to cook tea.In fact, she didn't do it herself, she was just pretending.The tea is the imperial tribute tea sent by Mrs.
Mo, and only Qingluo, who is proficient in the tea ceremony, knows how to cook it to show the true color of tea.In the middle courtyard of the Pavilion, Yang and Li led the four old women to count and check with the help of Wu Yinling, and less than five hundred taels of gold and silver ingots and gold and silver bills could be saved in all the congratulatory gifts.Although the rest of the congratulatory gifts are valuable, it is difficult to sell them into money, and in the end they can only be stored in the treasury of the Xijiao Pavilion to fall into dust, and wait for five years later after the Li Haitang ascends to the immortal sacrifice and then re-divides it back to the treasury of each family, and continues to be used to fool the next Fengxian daughter.The fragrance of tea filled the spacious hall, Li Haitang sat firmly in the main seat, drank the tea soup and tasted its fragrance, and complained indignantly to Yang and Li Yan, and even Wu Yinling finally joined in denouncing the eight patriarchs' wives for being too cunning.Zhuge Yi and Li Junshen also pretended not to hear, and concentrated on drinking tea like Li Haitang, and did not think about the chatter of one young man and two elders."
Big girl, you should say something too."
Wu Yinling stomped her feet angrily, feeling unworthy for Begonia.As a noble Feng Xiannu, she was collectively played by the patriarchs and wives of the eight major clans, but she had no power to resist, "They are really too deceitful!"
”"What stupid are you talking about?
The eight ladies are filial piety and touching, and they should be on the ancestors and down to the clansmen. ”Li Haitang handed the teacup to the wheat seedlings beside him, and said to Yang Yanchang: "There are still four days before the Qingming Festival, and these big boxes don't have to be moved to the warehouse."
You should only send proper men to watch it day and night, and you must not lose or damage it. ”"What is this doing, big girl?"
Wu Yinling was puzzled, the congratulatory gifts in the courtyard were all useless, because there were totem marks of various ethnic groups, and no one even dared to accept them when they were sent to the pawnshop.Yang didn't ask the reason, she only acted according to orders."
Don't worry, the old slave will send his own people to guard, and there will be no mistakes.""
That's good."
Li Haitang waved his hand and said, "There is no need to block the news, the more people know, the better." ”"Yes."
Yang Chang Yan took the order and left, and asked Li Yan to spread the news of the congratulatory gifts stacked in the middle courtyard when Liu Chuniang went out to procure, and it was best for all the people in the ten miles and eight villages around Ciyu Town to know.Although they couldn't guess the reason why Li Haitang did this, Zhuge Yi and Li Junshen didn't ask, but chatted with her a few more words about the Qingming Cold Food Banquet, and then went home.Each of them sent people to secretly protect the Pavilion, and not even a fly or mouse would want to sneak in.Zhuge Yi sent his own people to deliver the news to the ghost hand Leng Yan who was far away in Qishan Town, telling him that Li Haitang was very dangerous at the moment, and that there was a treasure to guard in the Qi Pavilion, so he asked him to hurry back.Of course, Zhuge Yi is not a god, he never expected that the news that the eight patriarchs' wives sent congratulatory gifts to carry into the Xiqiao Pavilion had already been known by the ghost hands who rushed back to Ciyu Town, and had quietly sneaked into the roof of the three towers before Li Haitang came back from the west side hall of Yansheng Hall, always paying attention to the movements in the front, middle and backyard of the Xiqiao Pavilion.An unaware master lurked in the Pavilion, neither Li Haitang nor Zhuge Yi was aware of it.The ghost hand paid close attention to the movements of the Pavilion, and observed the words and deeds of the old women and maids in the Pavilion in his spare time, and really let him find two old women with suspicious behaviors.At the same time, Li Haitang also got the confirmation of Yang Chang's wife, and the two old women who were mixed in the Xi's Pavilion behaved strangely, and after Yang Yan's judgment, the two were likely to be disguised spies.Lying on the stepping bed, Li Haitang heard Yang Yan's concubine come into the house when she was half asleep and half awake, and called softly: "Big girl, someone has sent a congratulatory gift again, what should I do?"
To collect or not to receive?
”"What kind of congratulatory gifts to give on the big night?
Ghost offerings?
”The dream was disturbed, Li Haitang lifted the quilt angrily, and her sleepy eyes were slightly swollen and uncomfortable.Yang Yan's wife was helpless, grabbed a gown and dressed her well, and said: "It's a congratulatory gift from the Yuan family, because the wheel of the gift was crushed halfway."
The second housekeeper sent by the Yuan family to give gifts hurriedly asked the old carpenter in the village next to the road to repair it, and then rushed to deliver the gift. ”"The Yuan family?"
Li Haitang took the greeting note and gift list presented by Yang Yan's sister-in-law, and asked, "Didn't Miss Yuanda come?"
”Yang Yanchang shook her head, "The old slave didn't see it, I think the Yuanda girl should be ordered to stay at home."
At the night market a few days ago, didn't Miss Yuan accompany Yuan Wuye out to visit the night market?
”"It's really inappropriate for a big girl who hasn't been out of the cabinet to go to the night market."
Li Haitang nodded, glanced at the two simple and expensive characters on the gift list, and felt comfortable all over, and said: "Yang Yan's sister-in-law come and take a look, this is the person who really knows how to give gifts."
Knowing what I love and doing what I like is the one who really wants to get married. ”Yang Yanchang smiled and said: "The eldest girl personally chose the third division today, and worshiped Aunt Mo as a business teacher, at this moment it is the time when the left and right are in the source and the scenery is good, the Yuan family wants to become the ninth largest clan in Ciyu Town, and must want to rely on the authority of the eldest girl." ”"Hehe, the Yuan family has great ambitions, but it's a pity that ......"
"I heard that the Yuan family sent them are the little apprentices' favorite yellow and white things, why do you sigh?"
Zhuge Yi jumped down from the back window, and a black coat hung in the crook of his arm.Li Haitang pointed to the black big hat and asked curiously, "Master, are you also here to give a congratulatory gift?"
