The jewelry sent out by the pearl, of course, is the best, the gems on it are cut and polished, plus the workmanship electroplating, the quality is not said, Jia Concubine has seen it for a long time, she has never seen such a good thing in her life, her grade is not high, and there are many taboos, but this jewelry, have avoided these, and then look at those fabrics, the color is very suitable for her, and the patterns on it are even more attractive to her, and then there is a girl to find a box, which is a set of the best four treasures of the study and a few books, look at the books, They are all annotated children's enlightenment books, and one is for her, which is the secret book of raising flowers, the flowers introduced, there are many types, and there are pictures, just like the real thing, and there are a few purses in the box, saying that it is the seeds of flowers, which makes Jia Concubine the happiest. Six kinds of tea leaves in six tinware jars. There are also four bottles of cider wine, all in glass bottles with labels on them.

Pearl entered the palace this time to give gifts, handed over the gifts to the next person, and went to see the master by himself, but when he went to three acquaintances, the four girls couldn't take it, fortunately, there was a little eunuch to help. came out of Jia Concubine's side, and went to see Zhao Guiren, she is the sister-in-law of the mother of the third master Qin Wang, and now she is not well-known, but she is still very favored later and was named a concubine. The same thing was sent, but only three sets of jewelry were sent, and the style was not as gorgeous as that of Jia Concubine. This noble Zhao is very enthusiastic about pearls, probably because of Qin Hui's identity! Now Zhao Guiren's maiden family is no longer good, the biggest official is only six grades, and now he can't see that he is favored, and Pearl came to see her, which can be regarded as supporting her and giving her face. Because Zhao Guiren is sociable and has a cheerful temperament. Speaking with Pearl, Pearl already knew her preferences, and all she gave was bright fabrics, of course, they were not restricted. Pearl also gave cosmetics, and the two of them studied it for a long time!

The third person to visit is Concubine Lin, this is because Qin Hui asked her to come and see, and Qin Hui's right-hand man is the grandson of this concubine. The whole family was convicted that year. The princess died early, and the concubine had only one daughter, and since then she has withdrawn from the battle in the harem, but because of the early emperor in clothing. Kindness to the current emperor. That's why pearls came to visit. However, the concubine is kind to the emperor. Not many people know about it, but when everyone knows, it was already after the concubine died of illness. Pearl went to see you. The concubine didn't see her, there was no way, she said that it was because of her grandson's entrustment that she saw it. Pearl gave her a pulse, knew her physical condition, and wrote a few prescriptions, which are all good prescriptions for future generations! The things that Pearl gave to the concubine were delicate and unassuming, but very comfortable, and she also gave two sets of down cotton jackets and cotton pants, two pairs of leather boots, a black and red mink cape, a light brown mink fur cloak, a gray squirrel emerald brocade cloak, and an indigo flash forged silver phoenix chrysanthemum pattern round-necked robe made by Pearl herself. There are six kinds of tea, six jars, and four jars of good wine, all of which are two catties.

There are also four sets of jewelry. One set is made of red gold emerald plus peacock feathers, one set is topaz, and another set is silver, one set is the point of emerald phoenix and its matching bead flower, phoenix hairpin, tassel mouth and large ear hairpin, small ear hairpin, bead hairpin, sideburns hairpin, crested hairpin, dragon head hairpin, etc., earrings, necklaces, rings, nail sets. In fact, these four sets of jewelry have nail covers.

The color of the cosmetics is also suitable, and the perfume smells also include sandalwood, which the old lady likes, as well as fruit and floral scents, and there are also unspeakable raw materials. There is less mascara or something, but there are more perfumes and essential oils, and there are twelve bottles of perfume.

Of course, there are supplements, herbs and medicines, so don't worry about this pearl. Pearl investigated well enough in advance, and told the old lady about the interesting story of raising a dog, the concubine likes dogs the most, and the two of them are happy to say this! If it weren't for the palace gate to be closed, the concubine would have to keep her, but fortunately, Pearl said that she would send medicine to Jia Concubine's child tomorrow, and she would come over and ask the old lady what else she wanted. As soon as the old lady heard her say that she liked to make snacks, she fell in love and asked Pearl to bring her snacks! Pearl promised to bring a lot of them. That's when he let people go.

After Pearl went home, she knew that Qin Hui would stay in the palace tonight, so she instructed her subordinates to prepare everything for making pastries, and she would get up early tomorrow morning to make many pastries. After that, I asked about the situation at home. Mama Liu and Mama Cheng reported to Pearl that someone came to give gifts, Pearl looked at the gift list sent by these people, and found the gifts from the two sisters' families, as well as the New Year's gifts from the Ming family, look at the things inside, there are four pieces of cloth, a set of coral jewelry, some medicinal materials, as well as a pair of calligraphy and paintings, a few books, and the clothes that Qiaogu made for her children.

Pearl also received a letter from Kong's, saying that everything was fine at home, and someone came to give gifts, she accepted them, and copied out the gift list, and sent them to Pearl together. Pearl picked up the pen and wrote a reply to Kong's letter.

Pearl said that she was tired today, and asked about Qin Dezhang and Qin Min's situation, so she sent someone away, saying that she was going to sleep, and she didn't take a bath, but just took off the hairpin ring in her hair. Officially entering the palace today, Pearl is wearing a straight jacket with a round neck and a round neck embroidered with folded branches and flowers, and the cotton is down, which is not very thick, because he also wears a white mink fur outside, with a flying fairy bun on his head, and a red gold peacock with diamonds and gems on his head, and a five-color gemstone winged luan bird is inserted on the side of his head, and a row of gold silk tassels hangs down in his steps, which are long and block to the shoulders. The back of the hair is also in a bun with a red gold plum tuanhua press. When I was outside, there was a large piece of yellow crystal inlaid in the middle of the white mink warm forehead on my head, and when I took off the warm forehead, I could see a pair of topaz inlaid with peacock feathers' sideburns, and the peacock feather just covered the position of the pearl's temples, plus today's makeup, it is said that it is a fairy concubine, which is very suitable.

Tomorrow I have to enter the palace, Pearl is worried that she will not sleep enough, so she goes directly to the space, goes to her Simmons big bed and sleeps comfortably, and when she wakes up, she goes to ponder her diamonds again. Seeing that time was running out, I found the medicine for pneumonia in the space, put it in a suitable jade bottle, and sealed it. One chose antibiotics, the other chose expectorant medicine, and also prepared antipyretics and nourishing pills, which can not only replenish physical strength, but also add eight merit water to it, which can make people recover faster.

The next day. Pearl wore the purple mink cloak, with a hood, warm forehead, combed a Lingyun bun on her head, and wore a large gold and gold pendant with gold and peony double luans inlaid with diamonds on her head, and two red gold magnolia flower hairpins were inserted on the side of her head, and a color-changing fire opal stone was seen on her forehead, and three small lapis lazuli beads were extended from both sides of this opal stone. He wears red gold earrings on his ears, a red gold eight-treasure ring around his neck, and a red gold bracelet on his wrist. He also brought a modern ring set with gemstones and diamonds, and a red gold inlaid nail set.

I want to give medicine to Jia Concubine. Pearl prepared a special box, with medicine at the bottom, two pairs of jade bracelets and a pair of Hetian jade bracelets on top. A pair of sheep fat jade carved bracelets. Two red gold inlaid treasure golden hairpins. Two jasper hairpins. There is also a pair of jade pendants, a pair of jade pendants, and two beaded necklaces. Ten pairs of earrings. Seeing that Jia Concubine seemed to be a little shabby, she found another box and put a music box, a mechanical puppy, a small frog and a bouncy ball in it. I also brought a lot of supplements.

I also prepared some flower seeds, an interstitial screen, and a jade ornament. There are also some refreshments. Pearl began to work early in the morning, and when the hour came, Pearl went into the palace with her things. This time, I also brought a Rashel blanket for the concubine. Find a small embroidered dog interstitial. I'm sure the toffee will like it.

Pearl entered the palace yesterday, but it was a sensation, the gift was good, this is natural, but the beauty of the pearl has also spread all over the harem. When Pearl delivered something to Jia Concubine, she met many people who came to visit the door. Pearl didn't want to be embarrassed by Concubine Jia, so she hurriedly told her about the medication method and precautions, so she left in a hurry, and then went to the concubine, and the things she sent were really very liking to her. Concubine Lin was very worried about her grandson, and asked Pearl to convey it to Qin Hui and take good care of him.

The concubine put on a down cotton coat given by pearls today, wore an ordinary robe outside, and wore a phoenix hairpin sent by pearls on her head, which is a small hairpin, but she wears it at home, and she can also hold up the façade, because the red gold and gems on it are shining, where else to use.

"Mrs. Qin, I heard that some imperial historians of the imperial court are impeaching your family, is that so?"

Pearl sighed and said, "It stands to reason that this is a matter for the imperial court, and I shouldn't have talked too much, but my family really has no way, the dealer is not collecting, and the grain merchants take the opportunity to raise the price of grain, so we can only use the treasury silver, and let those people build roads in exchange for food." In the past two years, the grasslands outside the customs have been affected, and those tribes are ready to move, as soon as my family takes office, they began to inspect the soldiers and check the equipment, but there are too many people who eat empty salaries, and the salaries of the soldiers are too small, and if they don't give money, who will be the soldiers? The city walls and fortresses must be renovated, the soldiers must also have cotton clothes to wear, a warm house to live in, and all kinds of medicinal materials are needed, weapons and armor are very old, plus the need to establish a cavalry team, which one does not need money, my family gave the emperor a letter, but the emperor is also embarrassed, there is no money!

I bought the blueprints of firearms from foreigners, and the guns and cannons made were very lethal, and if there was an army that could carry such firearms and put artillery in the border cities, then there would be no need to worry about those Yidi rushing into the pass and harassing the people. If we enter our cities and villages, how many people will die in our beams by then? To tell you the truth, not to mention the use of treasury silver, the adults of our family borrowed more than 200,000 taels of silver from me in order to build firearms and hoard food for disaster year! ”

When Concubine Lin heard this, she was very surprised and said, "Two hundred thousand taels, you lent it to him?" Where did you get all this money? Did your maiden family give it to you? ”

Pearl smiled and said, "Although my mother's family is wealthy, it is not as rich as my wealth, which is my own. All these things, from fabrics to jewelry, are mine. ”

"Where did you get all this money?" Concubine Lin was so surprised,

Pearl said with a smile, "Our house is close to the Zhuozhou wharf, I started by buying some silk and tea to sell to those foreigners, and then gradually grew bigger, organized a caravan, and went to the northwest to find jade and precious stones. Buy supplements such as bird's nest from Nanyang merchants. Later, I set up my own textile mill to weave cloth, buy tea plantations, build kilns, make my own porcelain, and sell some other things to foreigners. The profits are huge. ”

Concubine Lin nodded and said, "You are really amazing, you have such a great ability at a young age, and you have such a family background, no wonder you live so freely, and everything in your hands is so good!" ”

Pearl smiled, did not explain again, obviously, yesterday the concubine didn't ask this, today asked, naturally it will not be yesterday forgot, someone must have instructed it, Pearl is not hidden, to put it bluntly, since he married Qin Hui, Qin Hui gave the palace a big step, and now the bottom of the pearl is here, it makes sense.
