Naturally, it is impossible to sell the things that are given by the emperor to the public.

However, "bartering" is also a form of discounting. The "thing" of change can be both physical objects and people's hearts.

Chang Suining quickly finalized the matter with Wang Changshi, and distributed most of the lychees given by the emperor to Jiangdu officials as a reward, and distributed them according to their official rank and performance evaluation.

As for the remaining half, it will be distributed separately by Chang Suining.

Wang Changshi soon began to let people divide the lychees one after another, and for a time, the act of giving lychees to the regular festival became the most hotly discussed matter among the officials of Jiangdu, and many officials and literati wrote poems to praise it. After a long time, it became a beautiful conversation.

At dusk, as soon as he returned to the courtyard, he saw his old mother, who had rarely returned early, lighting the number of lychees in the ice box.

Seeing him come back, Granny Jin pulled the person aside and asked in a low voice, "...... Wang Wangshan, how many got there? ”

Luo Guanlin: "......"

"You don't know?" Granny Jin let go of her son: "I'll go and inquire." ”

"Mother......" Luo Guanlin had no choice but to stop people: "I and Wangshan are all the same." ”

Granny Jin glared at her son: "Then who are you pretending to be dumb?" ”

Luo Guanlin's expression was complicated, he just felt that his mother's posture made him think of the emperor's harem in the past, and the concubines and concubines in each palace compared with each other...... Mother obviously wanted to judge who was more "favored" by the number of lychees, he or Wang Wangshan.

Granny Jin interrogated again, and after making sure that her son and Wang Wangshan were evenly divided, her expression relaxed.

As the head of the family, Granny Jin called her daughter-in-law and grandson to her, and divided the lychees with a smile.

"Come, Ze'er, give two."

"Xi'er also needs two, remember to send them to her room later."

"A daughter-in-law is the hardest worker in housework, so she should eat more."

Luo Guanlin was not very enthusiastic about this matter, but when he saw that his mother was well shared, he was inexplicably looking forward to it.

The mother quickly looked at him, and there was no movement in her hand, but she just asked, "Mother remembers that you don't like sweets, yes or no?" ”

Luo Guanlin: "......"

Is this a question of whether he likes it or not?

"But this is a gift from adults, and it should be more or less joyful." Granny Jin stuffed a lychee into her son's hand: "Just use it to flush the bad luck on your body." ”

"......" Luo Guanlin looked at the only lychee in his hand, and then looked at the remaining ten or so in the box, so he ...... The rest belongs to the mother, the head of the family, right?

Out of filial piety, he doesn't have any opinions.

The next moment, Luo Guanlin saw his mother close the box and handed it to Luo Ze: "Go, while the ice is not yet finished, go out of the house and send it to the money house." ”

Luo Guanlin was stunned for a moment, and said disapprovingly: "Mother, how long have they been in Jiangdu?" ”

"Does it matter how long you've been here? What matters is whether the days to come can be long. Granny Jin glanced at her son: "I really let you maintain the favor of the clan, I'm afraid this family will be lost sooner or later!" ”

Luo Guanlin: Is it possible for "......", this "home", it is originally created out of nothing?

Even today, whenever he sees the Qian family, he still feels ridiculous when he hears those empty names.

Granny Jin was too lazy to say more to her son: "You don't need to ask about this matter, you can just do whatever you want, eat your lychees." ”

Luo Guanlin could only sigh and shut up.

Luo Ze knew very well which one was in charge of the family now, and he was busy sending lychees.

Liu sat on the side and peeled the lychee with a smile, and gave his three to his mother-in-law.

Her mother-in-law seems to be strong, but she is thinking about the family, but she often neglects herself.

In the face of her daughter-in-law's filial piety, Granny Jin repeatedly refused.

"If it weren't for the mother's presence, how could the daughter-in-law be able to handle the housework, and how could the lychees be edible." Liu smiled and said, "With you, the days of happiness for my daughter-in-law are ahead." ”

Granny Jin was so wrinkled that the corners of her eyes were stretched out by these words, and then she smiled and ate the two lychees, her expression was sweet to the heart.

Seeing this harmonious scene, Luo Guanlin felt that there was nothing wrong with him at all, on the contrary, he had the feeling that once he joined, he would mess up this harmonious self-knowledge......

Luo Guanlin then pinched the lychee and walked out of the front hall, stood in the courtyard and watched the sunset, listening to the laughter and laughter of his mother and wife behind him, and the corners of his mouth were rarely curved.

It's a really good day like this.

He didn't know how long this stability would last, but at this moment, he suddenly had a clear feeling in his heart that no matter what happened in the future, he would do his best to keep this precious stability.

The sky was getting darker, and the aroma of the food dispelled the feeling of loneliness and confusion in the moment after sunset.

"Why are you still standing, come to dinner!"

Hearing his mother's shout, Luo Guan responded and turned around and walked towards the dining hall.

Luo Ze also came back soon, wiped his sweat, and talked about the flattered reaction of the Qian clan.

Luo's mother listened with a smile and went to her granddaughter's room.

Luo Xi rarely went home to live for a few days, but most of the time she just buried her head in the study to study the drawings, and the family rarely disturbed her.

It wasn't until Luo's mother came to the table that Luo Xi, who was buried in the drawings, raised his head and reacted a little slowly: "Grandmother......"

Luo's mother looked at her granddaughter and asked with a smile: "Xi'er, is the lychee sweet or not?" ”

Luo Xi nodded: "Sweet." ”

"Sweet what sweet!" Mother Luo stretched out her hand and poked her granddaughter's forehead, and said angrily: "Han girl, you haven't moved!" ”

Seeing that the two peeled lychees were still on the plate, Luo Xi came back to his senses and smiled.

"It's like drinking three taels of rice wine all day long...... Luo's mother took a small wooden fork and tied up the lychee and put it into her granddaughter's mouth: "Eat quickly, eat with grandmother!" ”

Luo Xi opened his mouth and bit it, his eyes were so sweet that he smiled.

At the same moment, Wang Yue looked at the big bowl of lychee tea in front of him, looking very dazed.

He wondered why his old mother had to do everything herself, especially when it came to tossing food......

His mother peeled the flesh and pitted the lychee he brought back, and used it to mash it to make tea.

But then he realized that something was wrong, today was the last day of the dog days, and his mother advocated not drinking cold food on dog days, so as to achieve the effect of winter sickness and summer cure......

When Wang Yue thought about this, the mashed lychee had already gone into the soup pot.

His mother boiled a large pot of lychee soup tea, accompanied by ginger and cinnamon and other spices.

After boiling, people filled two large vats and brought them to the front hall.

Wang Yue originally moved here with his family, and dozens of famous people in the clan were waiting here, ready to taste the flavor of lychee, but he was caught off guard but waited for such two buckets of hot soup, which looked steaming from a distance, and looked a little like pig food. Look at the floating foam up close, and it also has something in common with swill.

The Queen Mother served a bowl to each of them, and lovingly gave an order that bordered on aggravation: "Drink while it's hot!" ”

Wang Yue was speechless for a long time, and silently composed a poem "Sacrificial Lychee Text" in his heart, and the last time he felt that he had died so unjustly, and even died blindly, the food was probably the West Lake vinegar fish brought by his mother.

The next day, Jiang Hai also collected a box of lychees.

Jiang Dongjia was very happy and frightened about this, and looked at it again and again, and couldn't put it down.

The second son of his family, who had just turned thirteen, saw his father's appearance and couldn't help but say, "...... It's just a box of lychees, how can my father be so rare? ”

This thing can be bought with money, and what can be bought with money is not rare for their Jiang family at all.

"You idiot, you haven't grown at all!" Jiang Hai waved his hand to drive away the second son: "Go and go, learn from your eldest brother!" ”

"Big brother has been so busy lately that he can't see anyone......"

Seeing the second son muttering and leaving, Jiang Hai scolded again: "It's not a weapon." ”

"Erlangjun is still young, so teach it slowly." The bookkeeper said with a smile, looked at the lychee, and waited for Jiang Hai to explain.

"It's already out of the ambush, and seeing that it's about to be autumn, it's better to send some cloth and make some clothes for the children in the good hall." Jiang Hai said, pondering: "The material doesn't have to be too good, the silver saved is more practical to buy a few more pieces of cloth, and the envoy doesn't like the people below to do splendid face work, it should be cost-effective and practical......"

The bookkeeper nodded in response.

Jiang Hai said again: "Buy some pen, ink, paper and inkstone and send them to the Wuer Courtyard......"

The two institutes are admitted by assessment, and there is no charge for restraints, and students need to take care of their own expenses such as food and lodging, pen and ink on weekdays. However, because some students are too poor to afford the cost of pen and ink, after understanding the situation, the two institutes will provide them with basic needs free of charge.

In a sense, the bond between this kind of student and the Wuji Academy is destined to be closer.

After some discussion, after the bookkeeper left, Jiang Hai asked people to put away the lychees and put them in the ice cellar, and he hummed a little song back to the backyard.

Although he spent money, Jiang Hai was still in a good mood, and the reason behind this good mood was also very simple - he earned much more than he spent.

Especially after the thirteen states of Huainan Road were connected, his business was completely revitalized, coupled with the trial of overseas commerce, the profits of large merchants such as him were almost obvious.

With such a relationship, it is impossible for Jiang Hai to feel sorry for the money he spent, not only is he distressed, but he also feels that he has not spent enough, and he is uneasy.

According to his experience, such expenses should not only be based on the weight, but also on the care ...... I'll have to let the envoy see his mind as much as possible.

Jiang Hai thought about it, and always felt that this intention was still lacking ingenuity, making clothes for the children in the Shan Tang, and sending pen and ink to the Wuer Hospital...... He could think of this, how could people from other firms not think of it?

He was not the only one who received the lychee.

Jiang Hai pondered and meditated, and returned to the courtyard.

It was getting late, and when he saw him coming, his wife pushed him to the courtyard of the concubine's room: "Don't look at what day it is, why did you come to me......"

What day?

Jiang Hai reacted for a moment, and only then did he react when he saw his wife's disgusted expression.

Jiang Hai stood where he was and didn't move, let out a light "hiss", suddenly thought of something, and pulled his wife into the inner room: "Madam, I have something I want to inquire about with you......

After hearing her husband's inquiry, the woman was stunned: "...... What is this, you ask? ”

is so dignified, why did you suddenly ask her [how much money does a menstrual belt cost]?!

"You...... Are you going to do this business? Mrs. Jiang Hai stumbled: "...... Most of these things are sewn by the ladies of the house themselves, who is embarrassed to buy them outside with great fanfare! ”

"Our own business is too busy!" Jiang Hai waved his hand to deny it, and said in a low voice: "I'm thinking about it, ask Madame, what things are needed to sew this thing, so that people can prepare it, and go back to Shantang and Wuji Courtyard to ......."

Mrs. Jiang Hai was stunned: "This ...... Is this appropriate? ”

Jiang Haidao: "You don't have to make a big fuss, just let your wife come forward in private......"

Mrs. Jiang Hai thought about it, but felt that this proposal was very practical, especially the girls in the good hall, without their mother to teach them about it, they would be ashamed and at a loss......

It's just that she can't help but ask her husband: "...... Wasn't it the most taboo for you to do business in the past to have anything to do with women's menstrual affairs? ”

If you say that it is something dirty, it will attract bad luck if it is stained.

"Because of this, they must not have thought of such a clever trick." Jiang Hai sat back in the chair with a smile, picked up the teacup, and said leisurely: "Don't look at who is sitting on it now, the women have gone out to work and build ships, and they still pinch their noses and taboo these, they are all stupid!" ”

"You've always been flexible." Mrs. Jiang Hai pursed her lips and smiled, sat down with her, and was also happy to handle this matter: "Then I will ask someone to arrange it tomorrow." ”

In this regard, Mrs. Jiang Hai was very emotional.

The envoy did not ask for more for those women, but as long as the envoy stood in the place where the benefits were distributed as a woman, there was naturally no shortage of people who "did what they liked".

Even if they are only driven by profits, rather than really starting to face up to the needs of women from the bottom of their hearts, but this can benefit women, who cares what they think? It doesn't matter.

In the end, the way of the world works, relying on the origin is not human consciousness.

Mrs. Jiang Hai's surname is Yu, and everyone in Jiangdu City calls her a Yu lady.

As the lady in charge of the Jiang family, Yu Niangzi inevitably has to help her husband socialize, but this time, she is particularly enthusiastic in handling the entertainment.

Next, Zheng Chao, as the head of the Wuji Courtyard, could hear someone send something over almost every day.

Zheng Chao sighed: "Jiangdu businessmen, it is rare to see more benevolent and righteous people." ”

In such a Jiangdu, why not worry?

Of course, Zheng Chao also knows very well in his heart that this is also directly related to the "way to make money" in the regular season, but this layer is not suitable for publicity...... Some things are too plain and hurt feelings.

Thinking of this, Zheng Chao couldn't help but think of the seven million things again.

Chang Jie's envoy didn't say a word in advance, but directly sent a full 7 million yuan to his nephew......

At first, he thought that his worthless nephew was bent on sticking to it, but now it seems that it is a two-way rush between rich people.

In the end, the one who is so poor that he needs to hold a big tree to enjoy the shade is just himself.

Zheng Chao secretly sighed for himself, and a scholar entered to preach that Yuan Hao had returned to the courtyard and was asking to see him outside.

Zheng Chao hurriedly said, "Let people come in." ”

Thank you for the reward of the operation officer, thank you for the reward of the book friend Yan Fat Tiger 1, Lone Cello, Fang Duoduo 123, and thank you for the monthly pass! Good night!
