Chapter 145: Daiyu's thoughts
Wangcai took the caravan and returned to Linhe Villa.
He handed over the caravan to He Cheng, and returned to Ningguo Mansion with five carts, twenty war horses, and ten foals.
In addition to the two carts of mare's milk wine, there were also two carts of furs, mainly mink skins, and a small amount of fox skins, which were all selected high-quality furs that Jia Cong left for his family.
The black bear he hunted also had his fur processed and brought it back with him.
The other car was full of ginseng, deer antler velvet and other medicinal materials, as well as some eastern pearls, and some precious stones and other rare items and valuables.
After Wangcai and Ping'er handed over, they took out three more letters.
"Miss Ping, this is a letter from the third master to you, and another one is for Miss Lin, please give it to her, and one is for the second master Lian and the second grandmother Lian, I'll send it to them later."
In addition, our caravan will rest in the capital for five days, and then it will go south, and it will be back in about a month, and when we come back from the south, we will go directly to Liaodong, and I will come back again when the time comes, if you have a letter to the third master, or clothes, I will help you bring it to the third master. β
Ping'er took the letter and asked, "Wangcai, is the third master doing over there?" Do you need to send a few men to serve him? β
Wangcai said: "Miss Ping, the third master is doing very well, you don't have to worry, as for sending people, I don't dare to call the shots, the main reason is that the third master has not settled down now, and the third master is still on the grassland when I come back." β
Ping'er asked a few more words and let Wangcai leave.
The mandarin duck frowned and said, "Why did the third master stay on the grassland?" I heard that the Mongols were very barbaric, and it wouldn't be dangerous for the third master to stay there, right? β
Ping'er said: "Maybe it's inconvenient to say, there are some things you don't want us to know, as long as the third master is fine, let's take a look at the third master's letter first." β
Ping'er took out the letter and read it carefully, first chattered a few words, and then said that she was in the Black Mountain Zhuangzi, and the black and vicious heart of the Wu family had been removed by herself, so she arranged a suitable person to take over the Zhuangzi.
This page is over, and I turned the second page, saying that I was on the grassland, and I would return to Liaodong in a few days, and I came out for more than two monthsΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
Finally, let yourself take care of Miss Lin more, there is a sandalwood box inside, and give it to Miss Lin along with the letter.
The latter page should have been written later.
The mandarin duck asked, "Ping'er, what did the third master say?" β
Ping'er handed her the letter and said, "Look for yourself, there is nothing too important, the third master said that he would return to Liaodong in a few days, don't worry about it, your man is fine." β
The mandarin duck glanced at Ping'er and said with a smile: "Go, go, that's not your man?" β
picked up the letter and read it carefully, and returned it to Ping'er after a while.
"The third master is still so resolute, this Wu family doesn't know what to do again? was directly disposed of by the third master, by the way, Ping'er, does the third master like Miss Lin? And let us help take care of it? β
Ping'er said: "If the Wu family is not too excessive, the third master will not be ruthless, and I will go to the second grandmother to ask later, and see if it is mentioned in the letter there."
The third master really likes Miss Lin very much, maybe Miss Lin will become the housemother of Ning Mansion. β
The mandarin duck said worriedly: "Can the old lady agree?" I know the old lady's thoughts, she wants to match Miss Lin and Bao Er Ye together, and this matter is probably not easy to do. β
Ping'er said with a smile: "Mandarin duck, you still don't know the third master, there is nothing that the third master wants to do, there is nothing that can't be done, do you remember what he said in the East Road Courtyard two years ago?"
said that he wanted to snatch the two of us home to be Mrs. Zhai, isn't this all snatched back now? It's all his woman. β
The mandarin duck thought about it carefully, and it was really like that.
"Listening to what you say, it's really like that, since I met the third master that time, this change has been one after another, which is dizzying, obviously there are a lot of impossible things, but it has become something when he comes here.

Sometimes the old lady sighs, saying that the third master's luck is too good, so there is a chance that Miss Lin will be our main mother? β
Ping'er said: "It should be ten percent, Miss Lin will definitely be our housewife, I will send her a letter in a while, whether you go or not, by the way, take a look at the things that the third master brought back, and bring her some over." β
The mandarin duck smiled and said: "Go, I must go, I must have a good relationship with this future housewife." β
Ping'er called a few mothers-in-law to drive the car into the inner courtyard and put all these things into the inner warehouse.
Looking at these soft and smooth mink skins, fox skins, and the glowing pearls and colorful gemstones, several women's eyes sparkled.
The mandarin duck stroked a purple mink and sighed: "The old lady also has a black mink coat, which is usually very precious, but the third master got so much back this time, how many mink coats do you have to make?" β
After all, You Shi was well-informed, and saw a large pile of ginseng, deer antlers, and boxes of Dongzhu, hundreds of mink skins, and fox skins, and that box of colorful gems, all of which were good things.
I really envy these little girls, with a good master, capable and generous, this trip, before they came back, they got so many good things.
"These pearls are good things, this is called Dongzhu, which is more precious than ginseng, and you can't see it on the market at all."
Ping'er saw that her man got back so many good things, and let herself be reluctant to use them, and her heart was full of superiority and sweetness.
said with a smile: "The third master said, these things are for us, and when we have time, each person will make a coat with mink, make a collar, and make a bracelet with Dongzhu for each person, and each person will share a share of these gems."
The third master is still thinking about us when he is running outside, and we can't let the third master down, we must help the third master run the family well. β
A master as generous as Jia Cong, they really haven't met before, and everyone nodded in agreement.
Ping'er found the sandalwood box that Jia Cong said, put it away, and gave it to Lin Daiyu later.
Leave one cart of mare's milk wine, and divide the other cart into several parts, one for Jia's mother, one for Jia Yu, one for Jia Zheng, one for Jia Lian and Sister Feng, one for Li Kun, and one for Aunt Xue, and let people send them over separately.
There are also those foals, which are for those children to play with, one to Jia Lan, one to Jia Huan, one to Baoyu, one to Sanchun, one to Daiyu, and one to Xue Baochai and Shi Xiangyun, and also sent them over.
These foals are selected from thousands of horses, and each one is very beautiful, very spiritual, and very likable.
After arranging everything, Ping'er and Mandarin Duck went to Rongguo Mansion and Jia's mother's courtyard together.
asked the maid to bring the mare's milk wine in, and the two followed in and stepped forward to greet Jia's mother.
"Greetings to the old lady."
Mother Jia was also very happy when she saw Mandarin Duck and Ping'er coming over, and asked with a smile: "Mandarin Duck, Ping'er, why did you two come over together?" β
The mandarin duck smiled and said: "Old lady, the third master asked the caravan to bring back some mare's milk wine, and brought it for you to taste, it is said to be quite nutritious." β
Jia Mu said: "I have drunk this mare's milk wine before, and it doesn't taste very good, haven't you tasted it?" β
Mandarin duck said: "The caravan only came back today, so I sent it to the old lady, we haven't had time to taste it yet, if it's too unpalatable, the third master shouldn't have come all the way to let people bring it back." β
Jia Mu said suspiciously: "Brother Cong'er's caravan has gone to the grassland?" Where is he? Won't you go with you? β
Seeing that Jia's mother asked, Ping'er couldn't hide it anymore, so she could only tell the truth.
"Old lady, the third master went to Liaodong with the caravan, and then went to the grassland, these wines should have been processed by the third master."
Jia Mu said unhappily: "This kid is running around at such a young age, you are by his side, and you don't know what to stop him, let him come nonsense, it is very dangerous to go to the grassland, and there are many caravans every year." β
Ping'er said: "Old lady, the third master walked from Zhuangzi, and he didn't tell us, we all thought he was on Zhuangzi, this time the caravan came back and brought back his letters, and we only knew." β
The mother was also speechless for a while when she heard this, this grandson was not tossing at home, and he ran outside to toss, and there was no time to give birth.
"Listen to what you mean, didn't Brother Cong come back with the caravan? Where is he now? β
Ping'er said: "When the caravan came back, the third master was still on the grassland, but the letter said that he would return to Liaodong in a few days, and now he should be on the Zhuangzi in Liaodong." β
Mother Jia nodded when she heard this, this grandson has a very correct idea, he may not listen to his own words, as long as it's okay, let him toss.
"It's good to be back, Amber, go and pour a bowl of mare's milk wine, I'll taste the difference."
Amber poured a bowl of wine and brought it to Jia's mother.
Jia Mu took it and took a sip, it tasted pretty good, it was much better than what she had drunk before, and she was relieved to think about it, even the tribute wine was made, and it was not easy to improve the mare's milk wine.
This kid doesn't know how long his brain is, he will make money by making some things, if Baoyu has this ability, it would be great!
"It tastes good, it's much better than before, do you want to drink some?"
The mandarin duck smiled and said, "These old ladies can keep it for drinking, we still have it over there, and it's not too late to go back and drink again." β
After talking to Jia's mother again, the two said goodbye and left.
The two came to Lin Daiyu's room, and Zijuan hurriedly welcomed people in.
Daiyu was reading a book in the house, and when she saw Er'er come in, she stood up and said with a smile: "What kind of wind is it today, blowing you two over?" β
Ping'er said with a smile: "Naturally, it's the northeast wind, and other winds can't blow us, we have good news here, Miss Lin, do you want to hear it?" β
Lin Daiyu looked at the two, blinked her eyes, and asked, "Is it a letter from Brother Cong?" Is he doing over there? β
The two glanced at each other, and Miss Lin really knew the whereabouts of the third master.
The mandarin duck smiled and said: "Sure enough, I can't hide it from Miss Lin, the third master is very good, this time I asked the Chamber of Commerce to bring the letter back, and I also brought a gift to Miss Lin." β
Ping'er handed the letter to Lin Daiyu, took out the sandalwood box and put it on the table, and pushed it in front of Lin Daiyu.
"This is a letter from the third master to Miss Lin, and this box is also from the third master to the girl, and we don't know what's inside."
Holding the letter Jia Cong gave herself, Lin Daiyu was very happy, and couldn't wait to open it and read it seriously.
Looking at it, a smile appeared on his face, and there were some interesting things about Jia Cong's hunting, and some words of longing, and after reading it, he carefully put away the letter.
I took the sandalwood box, looked at it carefully, and slowly opened it.
Several people looked at it at the same time, only to see a string of pearl bracelets lying in the box, emitting a hazy light.
Ping'er and Mandarin Duck recognized it at a glance, this is a bracelet made of Dongzhu, which is exactly the same as the Dongzhu at home, but the color of this string of Dongzhu is exactly the same, the general size.
"Ah, it's so beautiful!"
Lin Daiyu happily took the bracelet in her hand, played with it carefully for a while, and put it on her wrist.
The mandarin duck smiled: "This string of beads is simply tailor-made for the girl, which shows that the third master is in love." β
Lin Daiyu smiled and said, "Is this bead just a string?" Do the other sisters have any? β
Ping'er said with a smile: "I heard that this bracelet was made by the third master himself, so he made this string, specially made for the girl, and the four girls didn't have it, but such beads, the third master let people bring back a lot."
It's just that this kind of Dongzhu is very precious, and it can't be bought on the market at all, even if it is given to a few girls now, it is estimated that it will be taken away, and no one will support them when the third master is not at home, and when the third master comes back, it is not too late to give it to them. β
When Daiyu heard this, her heart was sweet, and she reached out and stroked the beads on her wrist, which Brother Cong made for me with his own hands, and it was the only one, not even the fourth sister.
Thinking of Ping'er's words later, I felt that it made sense.
If the second sister dares to take it out, she will be taken away by the eldest aunt immediately, and Tanchun is no better, even if the second aunt doesn't take it away, Aunt Zhao won't leave her behind.
No one dared to rob the fourth sister, but it was too small, and it would be nothing to give it to her in a few years.
"Brother Cong said when you came back? It wasn't mentioned in the letter to me. β
Ping'er shook his head and said: "The third master didn't mention it, Wangcai said that the caravan would go to Liaodong again in a month, and the third master should come back at the end of the year." β
Daiyu sighed, she had a hunch that Brother Cong would not come back at the end of the year, or even within a few years.
She is a little envious of Qingwen now, she can always follow Jia Cong, and follow wherever she goes.
Thinking about it, I couldn't help frowning, Qingwen looks a little like herself, Brother Cong took her with him, did he think of her as me?
Hmph, be sure to ask him when you come back.
If he can fight like Qingwen, can he always follow Brother Cong and accompany him all the time?
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but secretly make up my mind that I must spend more effort on practicing martial arts in the future, make myself more powerful, and accompany Brother Cong to explore the rivers and lakes in the future.
