Chapter 108: The Token of the Son, Distinguishing the Authenticity from the False
Fear of seeing officials is a common problem of all ordinary people.
However, Du Wei is not a person of this era at all, so in her consciousness, the official in front of her is at most like her boss and leader.
In addition, she has the token of Nanwang Shizi in her hand, she believes that this adult, who is a military attachΓ©, must know Nanwang Shizi better than her, and at worst will give her a face and see her.
The two of them went to the door and saluted at the same time.
"The folk girl Du Wei has seen Master Qian."
"Grass man Du Yifan has seen the governor."
Governor Qian sat on the top, raised his eyes and swept over the two of them, and said in a deep voice: "I don't know about this...... Who owns it? β
Du Wei hurriedly stepped forward, "My lord, this thing is a gift from a friend." β
Governor Qian couldn't help but be stunned, raised his eyes to look at the woman in front of him, and saw that she was wearing a blue and white dress, like a beautiful blue and white porcelain vase, elegant and luxurious, really elegant.
Governor Qian couldn't help nodding secretly, this woman was really good, and then looked at the man beside her, wearing a royal blue swastika brocade robe, a double row of bone buttons on her chest, a hosta hairpin, a dignified appearance, calm and graceful.
"You're brother and sister?" Governor Qian looked them up and down.
"Yes!" Du Yifan replied.
"Since it was given by a friend, then put it away, so as not to let the little ones worry about it." Saying that, Governor Qian handed over the "Tiger Bit Lock" jade pendant wrapped in a silk handkerchief back to Du Wei.
Du Wei carefully put away the things, but there were some doubts in her heart, she always felt that this adult had something to say, but looking at his face, she couldn't see half of the clues.
Master Qian let them sit down, and said bluntly: "I don't know what you are asking to see this official, what is the so-called matter?" β
Du Yifan was a little embarrassed, he couldn't say such a direct excuse for giving a gift anyway.
Du Wei didn't mind, and said with a smile: "My lord, the folk girl is here to give you a gift." β
Master Qian couldn't help laughing, he had been an official for several years, and he had never seen anyone say so directly to give him a gift.
"I wonder what you want to give?" Lord Qian was a little curious.
Du Wei took out the prepared things, and Governor Qian could see at a glance that it was the ready-to-wear clothes of Youlan Pavilion.
It's a woman's clothes? Lord Qian is really a little confused, I don't know what the girl in front of me has in mind.
"Actually, the people's daughter wants to give this thing to the governor's wife and Ling Qianjin......"
Governor Qian smiled slightly: "This thing is not rare, the official's wife only bought a few pieces a few days ago." β
Du Wei lowered her eyes: "The folk girl knows that Mrs. will not be short of these clothes, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to buy these goods after the year, so I want to give them to Mrs. for peace of mind." β
The more Governor Qian listened, the more confused he became, and it would be difficult to see this goods again after the year? "Could it be that this Youlan Pavilion will disappear in the next year?" He wondered.
"Exactly." Du Wei's expression was slightly frustrated, "Recently, Liangzhou City has suddenly been full of Youlan Pavilion imitations...... I believe that it will be difficult to find real good products in the near future. β
Governor Qian frowned slightly, and suddenly ordered the entourage behind him: "Go and invite Madame." β
Not long after, the governor's wife arrived in the front hall, Du Wei did not twist, stepped forward to salute, praised the governor's wife for her good skin, and asked how to maintain it, without saying ten words, she had already held her hand again and again with this lady's beauty, if outsiders didn't know, they thought they were mother and daughter.
Governor Qian obviously couldn't stand the family routine among these women, so he made an excuse to go to the courtyard after saying a few words.
In order to avoid suspicion, Du Yifan had to follow, the two chatted in the courtyard, Governor Qian was a military attache in the past, and he had also stayed in many places, and when he talked to Du Yifan, he found that the other party actually knew everything, knew everything, and said it well, and couldn't help but look at him with admiration.
Du Wei and Du Yifan stayed in the governor's mansion for nearly two hours in a blink of an eye, and when they left, Du Wei had already taught the governor's wife how to identify the authentic products of Youlan Pavilion, and gave her a few beautiful small recipes, and when she left, the governor's wife also gave her a basket of seasonal fresh fruits that the local officials respected.
Du Wei and Du Yifan quietly returned to Hengfeng Xing, no one mentioned half a sentence today, and Du Wei did not dare to bring the basket of fresh fruits back to Du Mansion, but directly rewarded the guys of Hengfeng Xing.
When have these guys eaten this kind of seasonal fruit in the south, on weekdays, even the rich people who have money may not be able to buy it, and they are happy one by one, as if they have begged for a reward.
On the evening of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Old Mrs. Du ordered people to set up two tables in the main hall, and because it was the New Year, Aunt Qinghe and her second sister Du Xue'e were all sitting.
During the Chinese New Year, no one dared to touch their brows at this time, so Du Wei rarely had a full meal quietly.
finally survived midnight, and watched the people set off fireworks, Du Wei returned to Jufu Pavilion.
This night, Du Wei slept very sweetly.
The entire city of Liangzhou is immersed in the festive atmosphere of the New Year's Festival, so no one notices that an invisible net is quietly opening......
On the morning of the first day of the new year, Du Wei first rewarded the maids in the Jufu Pavilion, and everyone got a red envelope, so they were naturally very happy.
Du Wei went to greet Mrs. Du after breakfast, and sat in the Buddha Xiangju for a long time, but she was not as relaxed as she looked.
She was waiting, waiting for the invisible net to unfold.
Finally, when the sun was setting in the west, Du Yifan hurried back home and brought her news.
When Mrs. Han of the Taishou Mansion was at the party, the clothes of the Youlan Pavilion on her body were torn for no reason, and she almost lost her old face, Han Taishou was furious, and immediately ordered the whole city to thoroughly investigate the goods of the Youlan Pavilion.
But at this moment, Governor Qian's wife suddenly interjected, saying that the goods that Mrs. Han was wearing were not from Youlan Pavilion, but fakes.
Mrs. Han was not convinced, the two ladies actually made a bet in public, and finally Mrs. Qian demonstrated in public, turned over a genuine dress, and embroidered the words "Youlan Pavilion" in an inconspicuous interior.
Mrs. Han turned over her clothes and found those three words.
But Mrs. Qian was not in a hurry, and used a needle to pick open the embroidery of the three words, and the four big characters "counterfeiting must be investigated" were revealed inside, and a hole appeared after Mrs. Han opened it.
How could Han Taishou tolerate this kind of thing, and on the night of the first day of the new year, he sent officers and soldiers to seize all the cloth houses that sold fakes from Youlan Pavilion.
By the morning of the second day of junior high school, the entire Liangzhou City, which was still open to customers, could be counted with just ten fingers.
Du Wei laughed in her yard, and almost every one of those sealed cloth villages had thriving dry stocks.
Sun Fu lost a lot this time!
On the morning of the third day of the junior high school, Du Wei pestered her eldest brother to go shopping on the street, and Du Yifan did not refuse, so he took her out of the house in a carriage.
The two turned out of the street but did not go to the main road, but turned directly into the alley opposite the Sun Mansion, stopped the carriage, Du Wei looked at the people coming and going in front of the Sun Mansion, and couldn't stop snickering.
It is said that everyone will have joy on their faces during the New Year, but these guests who came to Sun's Mansion all cried and mourned, and their heads were clouded.
Du Yifan laughed softly: "These cloth village bosses who sell fakes from Youlan Pavilion are afraid that they will level the threshold of the Sun Mansion, right?" β
Du Wei covered her smile, "It's best to keep their shop closed, the longer it drags on, the better!" β
Du Yifan understood, "This is natural, after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the emperor will come to Liangzhou City, let them spend so much during this time." β
The carriage turned around and headed straight for the bustling market.
