Chapter 993
There is a desk next to the window. On the desk are pens, ink, paper and inkstones and a stack of books. The first book on it is "Female Ring"...

Bai Lan immediately turned her face away.

"Sister-in-law's room is really cozy." Bai Lan praised.Speaking of which, Mrs. Jun Xiaogu is 29 years old, which is the age when women are full of beauty and fragrance in modern times.On the other hand, her husband died young, and she was left a widow, unable to remarry. After so many decades... it is really not easy.

Jun Xiaogu's face turned slightly blushing, "Just laugh at sister-in-law."

Bai Lan denied it, and said seriously: "No. Only by maintaining a young girl's heart can you stay young forever. Many people can't do it. Sister-in-law must persist."

"What are you talking about, so happy?" Mrs. Jun Gu came in with the help of the maid.

Bai Lan hurried over to salute, "Hello, Auntie."

"Stop being polite, Mo Yan's family, sit down."

"I'm looking at sister-in-law's room."

……

After exchanging pleasantries, Bai Lan asked Mrs. Jun Gu: "Auntie, may I ask what birthday present you are going to give to the Duke and Grandpa this year?"

The Jungu family said: "Hehe, it's nothing. It's not a rare thing. The bank note is 5000 taels, two ginseng roots and a catty bird's nest. Xiaoer's mother embroidered a hundred longevity screen, and the birthday character was written by Xiaoer." .Gifts, pay more attention to gifts than affection.”

Bai Lan was dumbfounded when she heard this, how could she give it away.Others are fine, it’s fine for Jing Er to write a hundred characters, but she doesn’t know how to embroider.

Jun Xiaogu's beautiful eyes turned lightly, knowing why Bai Lan came, and said with a smile: "In the past, the gifts from the Prime Minister's Mansion made the Duke of the country very honorable, but this year I'm afraid it will cause problems for you."

Bai Lan sighed and nodded, "Not many, just different. Two paintings by Master Qiong Ming and ten Ye Mingzhu."

After the words fell, Jun Gu and Jun Xiaogu were dumbfounded.

Bai Lan spread her hands and said that she really didn't know what to do.

Mrs. Jun Gu smiled, "For those of the Mo Yan family, intentions are more important. Every year in Xiyuan'er, they only move their mouths and send some colorful gifts. But they are the favorite of Zhengyuan. No matter how much we give, we will end up disgusted. Sending it away You can’t see your mind, only how much money it’s worth.”

Mrs. Jun Xiaogu nodded, "My younger siblings don't know about it. In the main courtyard of the public house, they can't make ends meet every year. In the past, the gifts from the prime minister's house would be sold by the West courtyard to subsidize the family."

Bai Lan thought for a moment, "So, giving money should be more appropriate. It's easy."

Mrs. Jun Gu nodded, "That's right. Mo Yan's characters are also priceless outside, and my nephew and daughter-in-law can let Mo Yan write adverbs. This will be comprehensive."

Jun Zixiu has a good calligraphy, but he is stingy with writing.So things are rare and precious, and the character of Junzixiu is raised very high.Even so, Jun Zixiu never wrote any words.

After finishing the matter of giving gifts, Bai Lan went straight to the study to find Jun Zixiu after returning to the Bai Mansion.

Jun Zixiu was dealing with official business, when he saw Bai Lan in a hurry, he thought something had happened, "Ma'am?" Then he got up and asked Bai Lan to sit down.

Bai Lan sat down, panting slightly, and said, "5000 taels of silver, and some rare calligraphy and paintings from the warehouse, plus a set of your calligraphy." Those calligraphy and paintings are relatively popular in the market, and they are easy to sell.Junzixiu is a grandson, and the grandson is the prime minister of the dynasty, and his handwriting is also very respectable.

Jun Zixiu stretched out his hand to caress her back, to help her calm down, "That's all?"

"That's right, that's all." Bai Lan didn't seem to be concerned by his tone.
