151 surprising dividends
"Girl, girl......"
The sound of the clothes breaking Shen Junqian's contemplation from far and near.
"The young master of the Xu family sent someone to say that he got a batch of good stationery supplies, and sent one to the master, several young masters and girls, and I brought the girl's this. β
"Well, you can put it in the study first!"
Since coming to Jinling, Xu Zhuqing and the people in the second room of the Shen family have been close to each other, and often send something from time to time like this, Shen Junqian didn't pay attention to it, but after speaking, seeing that the clothes were actually standing still, the expression on his face was still a little hesitant, and he asked suspiciously: "What's the matter, is there any problem?"
"The young master of the Xu family is a little different from the previous one......
Hearing this, Shen Junqian turned his head to look at the thing in his hand, "Different?
"Before, the gifts given by the young master were sent to the lady, and then sent by the sister or the little maid in the lady's room, but today I don't know what's going on, the Xu Si next to the young master actually sent it to the second door in person, andββ"
Dipping clothes put aside the box he was holding, and took out the obviously different food box on the top from the pile of boxes, and handed it to Shen Junqian, "And I specially reminded that this is for the girl." β
Shen Junqian was stunned for a moment, "Specially given to me?"
Although Xu Zhuqing and the second room of the Shen family have a close relationship, the backyard of the Shen family is not so unruly, and it should not appear if it is so easy to give someone a handle.
"That's not it, the grandmother in the lady's room is accompanying her, Xu Si just said that he came here in person to apologize to the girl on behalf of the young master of his family, saying that he accidentally broke the girl's pastry in Quanfu Building a few days ago, and specially compensated the girl. β
Shen Junqian nodded, he already had a rough guess in his heart, and immediately took the food box handed by the clothes.
This box is a double-layered one, and the hexagonal shape knows at a glance that it is a hexagonal food box unique to Quanfu Building. When I opened the box, there was a pastry on the first floor, and when I opened the first food box, it was still pastry.
There should be something inside, Shen Junqian picked up a piece of pastry and looked at it with some uncertainty.
"Wow, Quanfulou's dim sum!" Xingyu just came back from outside and saw the food box in front of Shen Junqian at a glance, and without saying a word, she picked it up and stuffed it into her mouth, "Girl, why don't you eat it with your clothes?"
"You know how to eat!" She poked Xingyu's head with hatred, she knew that Shen Junqian didn't open the box to see the dim sum, but there was nothing in the box except dim sum, and she couldn't help but be a little puzzled, because she misunderstood what Xu Si meant, "Girl......"
Shen Junqian was also wondering, she didn't think it would be wrong to get wetted with clothes, there must be more than a snack in this box that was specially reminded, the key is that she just looked at this box carefully, it is indeed the most ordinary food box in Quanfu Building, and there is absolutely no mechanism or anything like that.
Looking carefully at the food boxes that were placed on the table layer by layer, Shen Junqian looked somewhere with a flash of inspiration.
The clothes on the side immediately understood what Shen Junqian meant, and immediately took out all the snacks in the first layer of the food box, and then picked up the drawer on the first layer of the food box and turned it over......
Sure enough, an envelope with no writing on the cover appeared in front of me.
Dipping clothes took down the envelope and handed it to Shen Junqian, and Xingyu, who was stuffed with a mouth full of snacks, also stared at it with wide eyes.
Shen Junqian took the envelope and pinched it, feeling that there seemed to be nothing, and immediately pulled out two folded pieces of paper from the envelope. When I opened the two sheets of paper, I found that one of them was a silver ticket of 2,000 taels, and the other was a short letter that only stated that the amount of the silver ticket was a five-year dividend.
"Wow, two thousand taels, it's two thousand taels!" Xingyu rushed over and grabbed the silver ticket in his hand, and said with a light in his eyes: "A lot of silver!"
Indeed, a lot of silver!
Two thousand taels is really not a small amount, you must know that the unmarried girls of the Shen family now have a monthly silver of only eight taels a month, even if according to the letter, this is a five-year dividend, the average annual dividend of two hundred taels is also very much, not to mention, Xu Zhuqing once said that this is not a layer of profit!
"A layer of profit...... It's nothing......" Shen Junqian took the letter and unconsciously felt a little distracted, muttering to himself.
Xingyu, who was smirking at the silver ticket, was probably close to Shen Junqian at the silver ticket station, and vaguely heard her muttering, and couldn't help asking, "Ah, girl, what are you talking about?"
"It's nothing, help me put this silver ticket away first!"
"Ah, just put it away?" Xingyu immediately forgot what she was going to ask, dragged the silver ticket, and watched with a blank look at the clothes and selflessly took the silver ticket and put it away.
......
After brushing another layer of dye, Shen Junqian motioned to the clothes to put the paper in front of him aside to dry.
Xingyu, who had been not daring to disturb on the side, finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Shen Junqian had finally finished it, "Girl, are you tired, do you want me to say, girl, why do you have to work so hard to do this yourself, Yuhua Xiaojian Anyway, Sister Dipping Clothes and I will do it, just leave it to us." β
Yuhua note is a kind of paper made by Shen Junqian out of extreme boredom, which is a colored paper that is used to coat the paper with dye with a brush or brush and then dry it in the shade. The dye used for coloring is made by pounding the tea leaves of Jinling's unique rain flower tea leaves, adding water, and adding gum to make it.
Probably because of the tea leaves used for dyes, in addition to having a faint blue-green color and a faint tea fragrance after the rain is dried, the Shen family likes it very much, especially Shen Junqian's father and several elder brothers.
It's rare that the weather is good these days, and in the morning, I received a few good pieces of paper from Xu Zhuqing, and on a whim, I took the clothes and Xingyu to make some rain flower notes.
Shen Junqian cleaned his hands under Xingyu's service, and then explained: "Last time, the third brother quarreled with me and told me to send him some more Yuhua notes, he ran out of money there, and it happened to rise today, so he would do more, and it would not be tiring." β
"Besides, if this newly made Yuhua note is less than enough to give to the third brother, Daddy and the other brothers will be afraid that they will not be happy. β
Although there is no shortage of girls among the grandchildren of the Shen family, who let the second room have such a baby bump as Shen Junqian, the second master of the Shen family and the young masters of the second room of the Shen family said: My daughter (sister) is the most greasy!
Xingyu turned her head and thought about the arrogant expressions of her master and the young masters, and suddenly smiled into a crescent moon with her eyebrows and eyes, and nodded violently: "It's not no, it's still the girl's thoughtfulness, I heard that the last time the young masters were punished by the master for copying books, it was because the master felt that the girl gave him fewer snacks than the young masters......"
"Oops!" was talking happily, but suddenly his head was knocked out, Xingyu looked back and saw that it was stained clothes, and suddenly couldn't help asking: "Sister Stained Clothes, why are you beating me?"
"I think you have itchy skin, where did you hear this, it actually involves the old man and the young master, and now you dare to talk in front of the girl, so you don't have a long memory, and you are not merciless when you are careful of your grandmother's ring ruler. β
Xingyu pouted and muttered in a low voice: "Mama is obviously not here!"
Seeing that Zhan Yi obviously wanted to say Xingyu, Shen Junqian hurriedly stopped, "Okay, okay, you also know hers, she is measured, you go outside first to take a look, it seems that Sister Yaohuang next to her mother is coming this way." β
After listening to this, he looked out of the window, and sure enough, he saw Dao Yaohuang's figure coming this way, and hurriedly went out to greet him.
"You too, what you said is right, although I know that you are measured, but you must not say these words in the future, lest you get used to it in front of me for a while, and leak your mouth outside. "The rules of the Shen family's family style are still very strict, and Shen Junqian doesn't want to let the people around him give people a handle because of his connivance.
Xingyu muttered yes, and seeing that she obviously listened, Shen Junqian didn't say anything more.
When Dipping clothes went out to greet him, Yaohuang had already walked to the yard, but after a while, Yaohuang followed Dipping clothes and walked in.
Without waiting for Yaohuang to speak, Shen Junqian smiled first and said, "Sister Yaohuang hasn't come to me for a long time, how can she have time to come this time?"
Yao Huang replied with a smile: "Girl, I naturally want to come here often, but Dai Lu's little girl is a thief, and she is used to being lazy, and she always thinks about running to the girl recently, and even throws a few of her own work to us, I am too busy to leave, today I still took advantage of Dai Lu's absence to take this errand job to come to the girl, and I have to do something new!"
Yaohuang's words were playful, which made everyone laugh for a while, which explained the meaning.
"I'm just here to bring a message to the girl, the young master of the Xu family came over in the afternoon, and the lady said that she should clean up a table of dinner in the evening, and let the girl come over to help earlier. β
As soon as Yao Huang said this, Shen Junqian knew that Xiao was going to cook himself. In the past two years, in order to teach Shen Junqian cooking skills, Xiao often cooked a few dishes in person, and called Shen Junqian to the kitchen to help when cooking.
"Cousin of the Xu family, didn't he send someone to bring something over in the morning?"
Yaohuang smiled first, and then said: "Speaking of this, Madame is also a little crying and laughing, the young master was brought back from the academy by the master, and several young masters were also brought back by the master." β
"Huh?"
"The master went to the academy today to take the examination of the students, I heard that the young master and several young masters have performed very well, so that the master is very satisfied, after the examination is not satisfied, the young master and several young masters brought back from the academy together, saying that the examination school of the academy is nothing, and you have to take a good test, and everyone is in the master's study at this time!" 166 Reading Network
