Chapter 604: Fluorite
Fluorite? What a strange name for this thing? What kind of jewelry is it? Or what kind of herb or something? Qin Yao's own mind was completely unfamiliar and curious about this word.
Hu Laohan still scratched his head, and then said with a regretful face: "This fluorite is indeed a treasure, but, a total of so many pieces have been found, it has been presented like a treasure earlier, and I don't know whether it was given to the emperor or sent to the harem, it is said that this kind of fluorite can be made into a headdress, alas, anyway, it is very good-looking, and I have only seen such a small piece when I was young, and now it is still stored in our Zhuangzi, this can't be said to be how precious, the treasure is rare, rare and rare, We've always regarded it as the town of this Zhuangzi, hey, this matter, I haven't told the princess for a long time, and I came to mention it today, but I just remembered it. ”
"In this way, there is still fluorite on our Zhuangzi now, but there is only a small piece, so Mengfu wants this fluorite, I don't know what it is for?" Gu Ya asked strangely.
"Two nobles, if you want me to say that you don't care about it at this time, and go in to drink tea and eat, I'll just send this girl, with whose family this little girl is, then you can't just spread wild on other people's Zhuangzi, and then talk about fluorite, hey, to put it bluntly, I won't lend it to others, that little girl can't always be put at home to see it, I guess, it's just to make jewelry and something like that, it's not a joke, it's just a little bit in total, I remember it's really not much bigger than a broad bean." Hu Laohan looked regretful.
"Well, then bother your old man to send him away, I don't want to say anything more to the people of the Gu family or the Meng family, I originally wanted to be happy today, but I didn't expect to come here and meet these things, alas, look at what you prepared in the morning, I and the second princess didn't have a good breakfast, just waiting for your meal." The eldest princess was already feeling a little hungry, so she walked into the house with her head in front.
Now it's approaching the end of the year, according to the season, the climate is a little cold, Qin Yao and the eldest princess are not very thick, both of them just wore an extra cloak and came out, but the cloak they wore when they went out today is not very thick, this time I entered the house and there was a warm stove, and when I got closer, I felt that the whole person was physically and mentally stretched.
"Sure enough, it's a cold day, the door doesn't go out on weekdays, only the earth dragon really doesn't feel anything, to this Zhuangzi, I didn't expect it to be quite warm inside, you guys will be able to clean up." The eldest princess looked around and sighed.
"The eldest princess feels satisfied, but she is afraid that the two nobles will be frozen, early in the morning, Mama Fang sent someone to spread the word that the eldest princess is coming, we have a large group of people inside and outside to clean up, this house is really wiped inside and out several times, this stove has to be hot, in order to rest assured to welcome the two nobles, this Zhuangzi usually lights a simple stove, and the stove with the largest three pits in this house will not be lit easily." A mother-in-law next to her replied.
When she said this, the eldest princess and Qin Yao both served a tray in front of them, in which was a small teapot, a small teacup, and a few refreshments.
"This is Lu'an tea, and a little bit of rose juice, this tea is made of preserved fruits grown by Zhuangzi themselves, apples, pears, apricots, and some small snacks roasted with pear blossoms and almonds, all of which are fresh, and the two nobles try it." As she spoke, the mother-in-law beckoned the little maid next to her to boil hot water to make tea.
The hot water was brewed in the teapot, and after pouring the hot water, the tea leaves were brewed and boiled, and the rose juice was added before, and the sweet rose fragrance also spread out from the hot taste, and it smelled a real fragrance.
It makes people feel full of appetite. There are also those extremely delicate small refreshments, plus specially roasted snacks and preserved fruits, which are all small portions, and you won't worry about feeling sweet and greasy when you eat too much. It can be seen that they are all refreshments that can only be made with a lot of heart, and the eldest princess is very satisfied with them.
"We all know that the two Gu nobles came not only to eat, today the eldest princess brought the second princess here, one is to visit the courtyard, and we have to check the accounts of the manor, these account books have been prepared in advance, I think it is better to eat first, and it is also appropriate to check the account books after eating, by the way, it is considered to eliminate food." The woman suggested.
"It's all right, since you're here, let's make arrangements in front of your management, don't say that you are mobilizing the people, just just eat a meal at home." The eldest princess said.
"Where can you go home, how noble the princess is, this is the first time in the Zhuangzi to receive the master of the real card in these years, where do we have the opportunity to meet the nobles in person, and we can see the two nobles at a time, it is just like the New Year, no, this is much grander than the New Year, we are really happy today."
Qin Yao picked up the teacup and tasted the tea on the side, and ate a small piece of refreshment, really, the things made by this kind of dealer are simple and delicious, I don't care how it looks, the taste is really good.
"This mother-in-law, I want to ask what that fluorite looks like? Isn't it particularly good-looking, I'm really curious, although it's on our Zhuangzi, so do we have a chance to meet it this time? Qin Yao's curiosity popped up again.
Hearing Qin Yao say this, Su He Min'er also came over.
"What do you say, that's natural, in fact, this fluorite is the size of a broad bean, saying that it can hold this Zhuangzi is what it says, in fact, we don't know if it's true, this generation has said so, they all know that it's a treasure and keep it, but this fluorite is really good-looking, there is a special place, and it's really good-looking to make a jewelry or something, so it's no wonder why it was handed over before, as a tribute." The mother-in-law naturally talked about the situation of fluorite.
"Then why didn't this fluorite disappear after that? Didn't you say that it was found in the river of Zhuangzi here? Is it a specialty of the river or is it coming along the river, so no one goes to find the source and find the reason? Or do you think you can't find it? Or is there something to say about it? "Regarding this fluorite, Qin Yao still has a lot of curious questions to know.
"The second princess's series of questions stopped me from asking the old woman, and I told the second princess what I knew first." The woman smiled and walked over first to refill the teacup in Qin Yao's hand.
"This thing is a long story, to say less than ten years or twenty years, at that time, the Zhuangzi of the eldest prince was not the eldest prince's mansion, not to mention whether the eldest princess was born at that time, that is, the eldest prince's mother, Rong Niangniang, was only a four or five-year-old child at that time, this is all my father and mother, this Zhuangzi is doing things."
