Chapter 30: Birthday Gifts

Looking at the long list of bereavement pensions in her hand, Lu Weimang sighed, she finally knew why the Lu family was so poor, one person earns money, so many people help him spend, can he not be poor?

"Miss, the things have been packed, and there is no other command, so I will let the convoy Lao Zhao set off and send it away."

Lu Weimang thought for a while, "Let Lao Zhao serve snacks when he goes, whose family is really difficult this year, report it when you come back, and Steward Lu, you can deal with it as appropriate." ”

"Hey, the little one knows."

Steward Lu agreed, turned around and walked out of Lu Weimang's hungry courtyard, and walked towards the gate of Lu Mansion, thinking in his heart that although his young lady disliked the old man for spending money, she was still soft-hearted.

"Lao Zhao, go ahead, it's all our old buddy's house, you know it in your heart."

"yes, got it."

Lao Zhao, who was lame, sat on the carriage headed by him, nodded his head to show understanding, and then waved his whip, and the convoy moved slowly.

When Lu Qingshan dispersed in the evening, he heard the housekeeper say that the lady had thickened the New Year's gift for each family, and suddenly smiled, and patted Lu Weimang's shoulder at the dinner table, "It's really worthy of being a good girl of my father, not to mention that she can make money, and her heart is good." Let's just say it, this person lives a lifetime, just eat and dress warmly, not so poor and exquisite, we don't dare to think about this day before. ”

Cheng Yang and Changfeng listened to their father's words, their eyes were shining, and they felt that their father not only had the ability, but also had no character.

Lu Weimang moved his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything to disappoint the fun, Cheng Yang and Changfeng are here, saving some face for his father.

This is the first year that Lu Weimang and the others returned to Lu Mansion, and they made some money a year ago, so Steward Lu jumped up and down in the mansion from the beginning of Layue, vowing to dress up the mansion in a new way.

"Okay, today is the first time that our Lu Mansion Dongyue has been cleaned, and all the places that are out of reach must be scrubbed for me, including the top of the courtyard corridor. I have prepared the ladder, Liu Quan, you are responsible for the cleaning of the outer courtyard, Mama Huang, you are responsible for the part of the inner courtyard, it is now three quarters of the hour, and when it is three quarters of the hour, I will go to check, who is responsible for the unqualified place, and the military law will serve. ”

"Whoa!"

"Alright, let's get busy!"

As soon as Steward Lu waved his hand, the neat subordinates who were standing immediately scattered in all directions, those who carried water, those who took rags, and those who carried ladders all began to work in an orderly manner.

"Miss, let's clean up the house today, see if you avoid it, you will be disgraced if you are provincial."

Steward Lu rubbed his hands and asked Lu Wei to make a place.

Lu Weimang's black line, feeling that he is in the way in the house, right?

"Xiao Xia, let's go, let's go out shopping, don't make trouble for others at home."

"Hey, miss, the old slave prepares a car for you, you go shopping for a while, and wait for you to come back to take care of the new look of the house."

In this way, after Daddy Lu went to the office, Chengyang and Changfeng went to school, he was also "swept away" by the enthusiastic old housekeeper.

In fact, if it is not necessary, Lu Weimang is a relatively homely person and generally does not like to go out. Walking around the street aimlessly, Lu Weimang couldn't help but think that it would be good if he were a boy, he could go to school with Cheng Yang and Changfeng, and he would be "kicked out" by Steward Lu at home. It doesn't matter if you learn or not, you just want to have a place to go out and stay.

Lu Weimang is very bored here, and Qin Xuan is very lively there.

Today is Mrs. Qinhou's birthday, although there is no big event, but the family has a lively meal, and it is also as lively as flowers.

At noon, several juniors gave birthday gifts one by one, and what valuables could the juniors give, it was just a show of affection, and everyone also had fun.

"Mother, the child knows that you love chrysanthemums, so I asked the master of chrysanthemum painting among the court painters to draw you a picture of chrysanthemums."

Mrs. Zhang was full of smiles, looking at the tall and handsome eldest son Qin Hong in front of her, she was indescribably satisfied, she was only eighteen years old, and she had already followed his father to the battlefield many times, and this year she received Lang Zhongling's errand.

"Okay, when I go back, I'll hang this painting in Tingtao Pavilion."

It was directly going to hang in the main hall of her residence, which shows her love for this gift.

The people next to him also made fun, if it weren't for the eldest prince who had already made a marriage, someone would have recommended himself on the spot.

Next is the second son, Qin Min, "You like to read when you have nothing to do, my son found a few unique books from the teacher and copied them by himself to relieve your boredom in your spare time." ”

Mrs. Qin Hou glared at her second son, "You really remember me, just stay in Kyoto after the New Year, don't travel around to study." ”

The second son smiled silently.

The people next to him were also funny, "Auntie, our Min Gongzi is only famous now, and I have heard a lot of people in the mansion say it." ”

When Mrs. Zhang heard this, she was also proud, but he was still young, so how could he bear it.

When it was Qin Xuan's turn to give a birthday gift, he clapped his hands, and someone behind him carried a big basin with a red hijab, and everyone was curious.

"That time, my mother came back from Zhang's house, and she said that there was a red coral in the family when she was a child, and her son went to Duobao Pavilion a few days ago and happened to see it, so he bought it back as a birthday gift for his mother."

After speaking, the red cover on the pot was lifted, and a two-foot-tall red coral tree was revealed. Only the basin at the bottom is cloisonnΓ© inlaid with treasure, and the red coral is lined with red color, which is quite spectacular.

The scene fell silent.

Qin Xuan, who was still proud, was a little unclear.

"Mother doesn't like it?"

Since Qin Xuan stopped interacting with those fox friends and dogs, the money he earned on his body became more and more nowhere to spend.

This money is not only money, but also his ability, so the young man's heart, some skills are always expected to be revealed in front of others, so that people can boast that they have grown up and have the ability.

So on his mother's birthday this time, his father took out all the money in the past few months to buy this pot of coral trees, not to overpower others in gifts, but purely to show off his parents and family to make money.

However, at this time, the family did not know.

Although his salt introduction shop was run through his parents' henchmen, this was really not an eye-catching matter for the Qinhou Mansion, so by mistake, no one in the mansion knew that he had earned money.

Therefore, the praise and praise he expected were gone, and only the three sessions of his family were waiting for him.

Qin Hou and his wife sat on the left and right, Qin Hong and Qin Min sat on the left side and bowed, and Qin Xuan stood alone in the hall to be "interrogated".

"Tell me, how did that coral tree come about?"

Qin Xuan replied cautiously, but he still couldn't help but bring some pride, "Naturally, my son bought it, and it cost more than 100,000 taels of silver!" ”

He smashed all the dividends into it, and it was almost not enough.

Qin Hou's face became more and more gloomy, and Qin Hou's wife Zhang saw that her husband's face was wrong, and she was afraid that he would not be able to stop him from losing his temper, so she hurriedly asked her son to explain, "Xuan'er, you are still young and don't understand the difficulties of the world. ”

Seeing his mother's anxious look, Qin Xuan realized that no one in the family knew that he had made money, and he didn't know whether to be angry or happy for a while.

In a top noble family like them, although the children of the family are from illustrious backgrounds, gold and jade, and their daily food and clothing are the best, they also have the same disadvantage, that is, because the food and clothing are the best, so even every object on his body is recorded.

He partnered with Lu Weimang this time, and it was impossible for him to hide it from the house. So he simply generously asked his father and mother to do it for him, so that he would have to explain it himself.

Who knows, they all treated Qin Xuan as a little trouble, and after hearing it, they didn't take it to heart, so that there was a rare information error.

If it is the eldest brother or the second brother, there will definitely be no such mistakes, in the final analysis, parents still treat themselves as children, so even if they have heard about themselves, they are not careful.

So, Qin Xuan had no choice but to be patient, "The money came from a clean and innocent way, and I earned it by partnering with others to do business." I used your shop at that time, didn't I tell Mama Liu, didn't she tell you? ”

Mrs. Qin Hou's face was abrupt, "You are talking about the time in June, it has been a long time, I forgot." Master Hou, presumably our Xuan'er has this talent..."

Mrs. Qin Hou said, she didn't believe it very much. She owns a large industry, why doesn't she know when it will be so easy to make money, more than 100,000 taels in half a year?

Qin Hou's face was ugly, Qin Hong hurriedly gave his little brother a look, "Little brother, you might as well tell the truth, who coaxed you to open that business, Father Mingjian, will not let you be deceived." ”

Qin Xuan also knew that at this time, he would definitely have to say it one by one, otherwise not only would he suffer a loss in front of him, but he might also affect Lu Weimang.

So, from getting to know Lu Weimang, to making a plan, to opening a hot sale, he completely said it.

Qin Hou's face softened, but Mrs. Qin Hou and her two sons opened their mouths wide in surprise.

"Son, you mean, you just have this one shop, millions a year?"

Qin Xuan nodded innocently, "I didn't know that the income was so high." However, there are many inconspicuous businesses that make money in this world, and this million taels is nothing, there is no need to boast to others, I think that today is our own family, so I deliberately spent more money to buy that coral tree bonsai for you, and it didn't cost much, but it was just a dividend for more than a month in the future. ”

In fact, my heart is still a little dark.

Mrs. Qin Hou covered her forehead, and couldn't help but think, she had worked hard to take care of the family business for a year, and the account books of this Zhuangzi and that shop were as high as a hill every year, but did the income be one million taels?

"Well, that's the end of today's business, don't spread the word. You rest first, Xuan'er, follow me to the study. ”

Qin Xuan was still immersed in shock when he saw the three people who could save him, so he could only go to the study with his father with a bitter face.

"You tell me the process of getting to know Lu Weimang in detail, don't save a word."

Looking at his father's serious expression, Qin Xuan couldn't help but sink his heart, recalling the bits and pieces of the relationship between the two.
