279. Book gifts
On the second day, Yao Keqing sent all the pounds of tea that he had only obtained this year to Song Ziqing, Song Ziqing returned the favor, and wanted to give Yao Keqing a return gift, remembering the books that Yao Qishen bought, so he searched out a set of unique books from his own study as a return gift, the tea was sent in the name of Yao Qishen, and this unique book was ostensibly sent to Yao Qishen's family as a return gift to Yao Qishen, but Yao Qishen turned his head and sent the book to Yao Keqing excitedly, "Sister, sister, come and see this set of books!"
Yao Keqing took the book and looked at it, he was very happy, and after reading it, he stroked the book skin with joy and said, "The original version of this book has only been handed down for more than ten copies, and after a hundred years of wear, it is really rare to be able to preserve it so completely!"

Yao Qishen smiled, "It's good if my sister likes it!"
Yao Keqing smiled and shook his head, "I like it, but this gift is too expensive, even a hundred and ten catties of tea can't be bought!"
Yao Qishen scratched his head and said, "The Song family is a military general, maybe this book is not as good as the tea in their eyes!"
Yao Keqing couldn't help but laugh, "No matter how the Song family is a military general, it is also a family of nobles for generations, and the family background will be less? Our Yao family has only risen for three generations, which is far worse than them, we all know the value of this book, how can they not know?"
Yao Qishen was out of words, and he had no idea for a while, "Then what should I do now? I can't go back again, right?"
Yao Keqing sighed, "Take it! Such a big favor, I will return it in the future!"
Song Ziqing only remembered the last time Yao Keqing gave tea when Yao Qishen promised to send tea, he was so excited for a while that he forgot to return the gift, at this time he calmed down, and then thought about the return gift, vaguely remembered that Yao Qishen bought a lot of books that day, it seemed that they were bought for his sister Yao Keqing, so he went to the study to rummage through the collection of books, and finally found a set of very precious solitary books, thinking that Yao Keqing should like it, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.
Where would he have thought that with Yao Keqing's seven-trick exquisite heart, he would receive such a valuable return gift, and it really took a lot of effort to figure out the meaning of this gift.
Yao Keqing, who got the lone book, studied and copied at the same time, and lived a leisurely life, Xiao Miao was pinched by Aunt Dai, and according to Aunt Dai's request, he took Yao Kerong out to socialize a few times, but the result was not very satisfactory to Aunt Dai.
Just when Yao Keqing was leisurely, the woman who was saved by her that day came to thank her, and she still had the little girl named Osmanthus by her side.
"Thank you, Miss Yao, for saving your life!" thanked Mrs. Yao as soon as she entered the door.
Yao Keqing smiled and didn't accept the gift, looked at her slightly bulging belly, and personally helped her sit down, "How can you worry about it!"
Mrs. Yao said gratefully, "It's just a gesture for the nobles, but it's a life-saving grace for the little woman!"
Yao Keqing looked at Mrs. Yao with gratitude, but there was no flattery, and remembered that Yao Qishen once said that Yao Jingxing was a talented person, and felt that Mrs. Yao was also a heart-to-heart. "Madame comes with herself, are you still used to it?"
Mrs. Yao smiled, "It's okay! There is no discomfort in the diet, but the climate here is drier!"
It just so happened that the Fang family sent someone to deliver something, and Yao Keqing asked Mama Fang to accompany Mrs. Yao to talk.
"Although it's autumn now, it's still very dry, and I want to have to heat it up again! Madame, you have to pay attention to your body!" Mama Fang kindly reminded.
Mrs. Yao's pretty face was slightly red, knowing that Mama Fang already knew that she was pregnant, she stroked her bulging belly and said shyly, "I'm okay, I'm afraid of this in my belly!"
"Seeing Madame's ruddy complexion, the child must be healthy if you think about it! Madame, this is the first child, right?" Seeing that Madame Yao was worried about the child in her womb, Mama Fang couldn't help but speak comfortingly.
Mrs. Yao nodded, "Yes, I have been married to my husband for three years, and this time I finally had this child, and I hope that it will be safe and sound!"
Mama Fang smiled and accompanied Mrs. Yao to talk about a lot of precautions for raising a baby, Mrs. Yao listened carefully, Yao Keqing listened quietly outside the door, and quietly avoided it, until they said about it before they appeared.
Because it was dinner time when Mrs. Yao resigned, Yao Keqing kept the meal, Mrs. Yao refused despite all the obstacles, Yao Keqing was helpless, and accepted some practical but not very valuable things as a gift in return, Mrs. Yao took the gift and thanked her again and again before leaving.
Before going to bed, Mama Fang combed Yao Keqing's hair while talking about Mrs. Yao she had seen today, "Although this Mrs. Yao was born in a small family, her etiquette is no worse than that of everyone's ladies, and she is very good at talking, knowing that our family and the Fang family are in-laws, although the other family yearns for it, she didn't say anything abrupt!"
Xiao Miao's family was very stammered with the Fang family at the beginning, one was for the Fang family's reputation, and the other was for the Fang family's connections, but the Fang family didn't like Miao's aunt and nephew, and even more disliked Xiao Miao's attitude of drilling camps, so they ignored her, and Xiao Miao's family stopped thinking after hitting the wall several times. Mrs. Yao's husband is going to take the imperial examination, so this Mrs. Yao must have heard of the Fang family, and now she can maintain a normal heart, either she is really pure-minded, or the city government is deep.
"I heard Shen'er say that Yao Jingxing is also a capable person, and it is inevitable that he will pass the examination next spring! Now that he is good friends with their husband and wife, when Shen'er is older, it will also be a network to become an official in the court. "Yao Qishen is not a member of the Fang family, and it is impossible to rely on the Fang family for a lifetime, but these people of the Yao family will not be used by Yao Qishen, so Yao Keqing is very happy to watch Yao Qishen make friends with people who are or are about to become officials.
Mama Fang said happily, "Brother Shen is still young, Miss is thinking so far! With the Fang family here, the third young master's career is open!" "Mama Fang is from the Fang family, and the Yao family has no cultivation grace for her, so Mama Fang naturally thinks of the good of the Fang family."
Yao Keqing smiled, didn't answer, and suddenly remembered something, "The stove in the kitchen can be repaired? If it's repaired, don't go to the big kitchen to make things!"
Some time ago, because of the heavy rain, the small kitchen of the secluded pavilion entered the water, after draining the water, it was found that the stove was cracked, so I found a worker to repair it, before the stove was not repaired, the secluded pavilion lacked something and could only go to the big kitchen to do, this is the last time I was bumped into by Xiao Miao and Mo's Biyu and the little girl bickering, the little girl was ordered to send bird's nest to Yao Keqing, but was attracted by the fragrance of bird's nest, when she was greedy, she hid in a secluded place and wanted to steal food, but was caught by the jasper who happened to pass by.
Mama Fang replied, "It will be ready for use in two days!"
Yao Keqing smiled lightly, she has the patience to wait, others may not have this patience.
