Chapter 256: A Special Gift
The things that Yingchun brought in were packed in a warm jade box, although it was warm jade, there was still a heavy cold air seeping out of it, and Yingchun shivered so cold that even the fingers holding the box were frozen to the point that there was no blood. "Ge. Bai Heran was very curious about the contents of the box, so he took it and opened the jade box, only to find that it was actually a moon-white hairpin. The material of the hairpin is very special, like jade and not jade, not crystal, cold to the touch, cold to touch and small luck to withstand this
It's bitterly cold. But after the internal force is transported, the cold is dissipated by the internal force and melted into the nose, but it makes people feel comfortable all over the body, and even the surrounding air becomes more smooth. It's as if the whole person is alone in the middle of the mountains and rivers, and all the fragrance given by nature is blowing in front of you.
The top of the hairpin is a lotus flower, hanging two beads of the same material, there is a faint and thin cold air emanating from the hairpin body, making this hairpin look like a fairyland, fairy breath.
"What a special hairpin." Bai Zhenzhen subconsciously dodged back, "This thing is frozen!" Hong's looked at the hairpin and pondered: "This thing seems to be made of thousand-year-old ice, I once heard my eldest brother mention that this kind of thing is extremely difficult to mine, and Dongqin has tried everything he can over the years, and what he got is only half an arm's length." The Hong family also summoned the mining team to go to the extremely cold land, originally wanting to try their luck, in case they could be picked up, they could be taken away by the imperial court at a large price, and they could continue this business for a long time in the future. It's a pity that the thousand-year-old ice is too difficult to pick, and the Hong family has been to the red family several times but has returned in vain. The piece obtained by the imperial court is said to be the ninth of the four princes
The prince and the ten princes joined forces to get it, and it is very precious. Bai Zhenzhen also remembered something, "I have also heard that the thousand-year-old ice is like jade and not jade, more beautiful than jade, and stronger than iron." This kind of thing can't be broken, it can't be broken, unless there is a master with extremely strong internal strength, no one can shatter the thousand-year-old ice. I want to come to the piece that was picked out of the palace back then, just
It was a combination of the internal forces of the three highnesses that only then did I get such a small piece back. Hong continued to give her popular science: "The thousand-year-old ice is the coldest thing in the world, and this small hairpin has such a cold atmosphere, it is conceivable that if it is a big object, I am afraid that this room will not be able to stay with people." The Hong family often walked around the palace and listened to the eunuchs in the palace say that the room where the thousand-year-old ice was stored
Son, every summer will put in all kinds of melons and fruits, not long after a while to cool down, just serve to the masters to eat, is very convenient and easy to use. ”
Bai He lost his smile, and the treasure that he had worked so hard to get back turned out to be a refrigerator, and he didn't know how Jun Mulin felt.
However, this gift is very much in line with her wishes, it is not only a hairpin that has increased its beauty, but also can be used as an attack weapon, which can attack the enemy in an unprepared situation, maybe a hairpin will go down, and the flesh and blood will be frozen.
"This thing is not only beautiful, it is said to be beautiful." Bai Zhenzhen said, "Just look at which woman has the ability to wear it, once it is worthy of its coldness, she can obtain a prosperous beauty under its nourishment, and even aging will slow down." ”
"It is rumored that there was a queen in the previous dynasty who got a close-fitting thing made of cold ice for a thousand years, and wore it all her life, until she died at the age of ninety-six, and her face looked like she was forty or fifty years old, which was very magical." The mother and daughter said a sentence by themselves, and Bai Heran was as surprised as if listening to a story. She had to sigh: "You know so much. "In fact, there are also records of thousand-year-old ice in the ancient books hidden by the Bai family in the previous life, but after all, it is only a blunt record, and there is no Hong's mother and daughter talking about it themselves
It was so vivid that she had a new understanding of this thing. "There's no way, what the Red family does is to make money, and they go south and north, relying on what they see and hear." Hong said, "Second Miss used to ignore these mundane things, if she had been like this in the morning, she would have known about this thousand-year-old ice." She subconsciously shuddered when she said this, double
hugged his arms and said helplessly: "It's too cold, just such a small thing can make the house cold like it is in winter, this thousand years of cold ice is really worthy of its name." Congratulations to Miss Er for getting such a treasure. ”
Bai Zhenzhen also followed: "This is what you hold, if you change to an ordinary person, I am afraid that this hand will be frozen and wasted." Put it on! It's too wasteful to put such a good thing in a warm jade box, and you should be its owner. ”
Bai Heran laughed, and stuck the hairpin on his head in front of the bronze mirror, and at the same time, the internal force worked slightly, and then the cold was neutralized.
I don't know if it's because the things have been used by her, the original cold in the room has also begun to dissipate, and the previous normal temperature will soon return. It's just that the Hong clan and Bai Zhenzhen are closer to her, and they can still feel a little cold. Hakuzuru liked this gift very much, and it took a while to remember what was going on. She said to the Hong family: "Tomorrow I want to go to the Hong family, the last time Zhen Zhen told me about the red family to take over the pharmaceutical business, I haven't left the time to thank my uncles in person." Just tomorrow should be
If nothing happens, let's go! The Hong family was a little embarrassed, "That's what they should do, where is the need for the second miss to thank you in person, it should be the second miss of the Hong family to thank the second miss." If there is no second miss, I am only afraid that the Hong family will ......" She paused and sighed lightly, "The Hong family is all shrewd people, and if the business is done at this point, they will not understand the future end." Sometimes it's not all right when things are smooth, you have to sum up why other people's families can't do it, and everything goes well for the red family. If it's too smooth, it's not smooth, someone is deliberately fueling the trouble behind the scenes, pushing the Hong family to the position of the richest man. And these
In the final analysis, wealth is just temporarily put on hold in the Hong family, once one day people need it, they will take it all back, the red family will end up in nothing, and it is not certain whether the life can be saved. ”
Bai Zhenzhen has already listened stupidly, she is too young, and many things are not understandable at her age.
But Bai Tsuru was already mentally prepared, so he was not surprised by Hong's words. She didn't say much, only told the Hong family: "Whether a family can be kept depends mainly on the heart of that family." The heart is the best by nature, and God will definitely favor it. Hong nodded vigorously, "Second Miss, don't worry, my brother has told me about his future plans." Originally, it was planned to earn a few more years, buy some land far from the upper capital, and then choose a good time to send all the wealth to the treasury to save his life. But now let's all listen to you, Second Miss
, Second Miss, no matter what you do, the Hong family is on your side and is your strongest backing. ”
When she said this, she suddenly stood up and knelt straight in front of Hakutsuru.
Bai Zhenzhen was taken aback, "Auntie, what are you doing here?" ”
The Hong family didn't take her words, but just said to Bai Heran: "Ask the second miss to protect the red family's life, my red family is willing to recognize the second miss as the master, and the only second miss will obey in this life." Bai Zhenzhen was even more surprised, but she seemed to have figured out some ways, so she asked the Hong family: "Is there someone who sees the red family as having a lot of money, and wants to be detrimental to the Hong family?" The other party is a powerful character, is the eldest uncle unable to hold back? She looked at Bai Heran again, "Sister, you can really keep red."
Home? If you say yes, then I will kneel with my aunt too. Bai Heran looked at the two of them, sighed lightly and said: "Only the Hong family itself can save the Hong family, and the court wants silver for the country and the people, if the Hong family can do this thing one step ahead of the court, the silver will be the same in anyone's hand." As long as the Hong family understands this truth, they can
Save yourself. ”
The next day, Bai Heran took Bai Zhenzhen and Bai Haoxuan to Hong's house together.
When the carriage arrived, the three masters of the Hong family and a group of family members were waiting at the gate of the mansion, all smiling and happy.
The eldest lord Hong Zhenhai didn't wait for the carriage to stop before he came up, and shouted in a loud voice: "Ah Ran, my uncle is looking forward to the stars and the moon, and he finally looks forward to you!" ”
Behind him, the second old man Hong Zhenjiang and the third old man Hong Zhenhe said unhappily: "Why is it only the eldest uncle who is looking forward to it?" The second and third uncles are also looking forward to it! Yo, Zhen Zhen and Xuan'er are also here, and our house is lively today. Hong Zhenjiang turned back to the ladies while greeting the guests: "Go and talk to the cook, wrap Xuan'er's favorite big meat dumplings, and Zhen Zhen's favorite brown sugar sesame cake." After speaking, he asked Bai Heran, who had just gotten out of the carriage, "Ah Ran, what do you usually like to eat?" With the second uncle
Say, the second uncle asked the cook to make it for you. ”
Bai Heran liked the atmosphere of the Hong family very much, and also liked the coolness of the Hong family, so he thought about it and said: "I love to eat radish cake, the kind I brought to my grandmother last time, it smells very good." ”
"That's it!" He hurriedly turned around and ordered, "Steam the radish cake, steam more, and go back and bring a drawer to Mrs. Bai." The group was greeted into the house lively, and Bai Heran said to Hong Zhenhai as he walked: "There are some thin miles in the car, which are for my aunt and younger siblings." There are a lot of good things in the Hong family, and I really don't have anything to do, so I prepared some spices and packed a few purses with my own hands, and the spices were given to my aunt
We use it, and the purse is hung for the younger siblings, and it is very good to prevent mosquitoes in summer. ”
People were very happy when they heard this, and the son of the second master's family, Hongfei, corrected her: "I'm two months older than you!" Aran, you have to call me cousin. ”
Bai Heran looked at him, and saw that the person who spoke was a young man with a sunny face, his skin was not as fair as that of the noble young man in Beijing, it was a very healthy wheat color, and he thought that he should have often traveled south and north with his family.
She hurriedly called her cousin, and Bai Haoxuan introduced her very intimately: "It's the cousin of the second uncle's family, called Hongfei." Bai Heran nodded again, so that he was embarrassed by Hongfei, "Don't be so polite, they are all real relatives, and they will come and go often in the future, and they will slowly become familiar." After speaking, he introduced several other juniors to her, "This is my sister, Hong Ruomei." The small one on the side is the third uncle's maid
Head, Red Ruoqi. Both of them are younger than you......" he patted the two girls beside him, "call Cousin Dye!" It's so blind. ”
The two little girls were less than ten years old, still young, their mouths were very sweet, and they smiled at Bai Heran and bent their eyes, and shouted in unison: "Cousin Dye!" The youngest added, "Cousin, you look so good." ”
A few children made a fuss, which made the whole family laugh. Bai Heran said to Hong Zhenhai again: "I come to the door for the first time, I should go to see the old lady first, and my uncle will take me there!" Hearing her talk about this, Hong Zhenhai couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed......
