The story of Princess Lenggong's farming

Chapter 311 Pearl
"It's not a small thing to say that he gambled, drank and fought, and refused to study. In fact, Li Hanlin is also responsible. If he doesn't beat him to death, maybe his son's reputation is not so bad, but he is beaten. It spread quickly, for a person who is denied by Lao Tzu, others will only think how much better it will be...Isn't it, Dabao?!" Shen Sisi said with a smile.

"What you said is also reasonable, but it's just that it's not good to have a good reputation. You're getting close to him, so don't get you in trouble..." Dabao said worriedly: "I'm not preventing you from making friends, but you are still a girl after all. , it’s always right to pay more attention.”

"I understand, it's just that he really isn't as rumored..." Shen Sisi said with a smile, maybe it was the same before, but it's different after another person.

Dabao knew that she had always been thoughtful. Seeing her protecting him like this, he nodded and stopped worrying. To him, she was really more authoritative than his own father in his mind. Naturally, she said Whatever, she believed it.Besides, he has always listened to the words of Tu Niu since he grew up, and he really respects and trusts her immensely.

After talking with her for a long time, he felt that his mouth was dry, so he asked someone to serve tea, and asked the people who followed him to bring things in. Dabao smiled and said: "Father, mother and Xiaohua asked to bring them, There are special products from home, and some salted duck eggs and preserved eggs. I was afraid that it would be inconvenient for you to cook here and you would not be able to eat them, so I brought them here. There are also some jujubes dried by my parents. It’s just that fresh grapes are not easy to bring. If it's easy to bring, I can bring it here, it's easy to rot after a long journey, but I brought wine, it's fresh, it's also good to drink for beauty, take a look..."

Shen Sisi was also very happy to see these things, although they were not very valuable things, but these were all the wishes of the family, and they were brought here by Dabao, how could she not like them.

After ordering, there were three big carts full of things. Shen Sisi put away the food separately and asked Chunlan Qiulan to put it away. There were not only these, but also some salty dry goods, and some dried mushrooms picked from the mountains. And bamboo shoots, everyone in the family knows that she likes to eat this, so I invited people from the village to pick it up, dried it, and brought it over, and even brought a lot of bottom ingredients, in case she would make it troublesome to eat it alone, so I simply made it from the seasoning Fangli pulled some over, and the cart was full of food alone.

Chunlan and Qiulan knew that these were all good things and delicious, so they moved them to the woodshed with excitement.

Dabao pulled her and said, "These are some good fabrics and rare jewelry I collected for you through some larger markets. I wanted to make your life in the Hou Mansion easier, but I didn't expect... But you still You can wear it, Tu Niu, I’m not talking about you, even your parents are wearing silk clothes now, you still wear cotton clothes, even I wear these, you have to pay attention to it, you can’t rely on it Bai makes people look down on you... My sister, how can you be so poor."

Shen Sisi has always been indifferent to these things. She likes cotton clothes, which are comfortable to wear and keep warm and absorb sweat. There are nine capitals with high officials and dignitaries, it is really poor, but the advantage is that she has a good appearance, otherwise she would be invisible to everyone and would not be able to tell...

"I'll just make something to wear when I go out," Shen Sisi followed suit, and sometimes she really wanted some gorgeous clothes, so she could look fat when she went out, pretending to be 13.

Shen Sisi touched the material of these materials, secretly praised it, it was indeed comfortable, and said with a smile: "Is this material Shu brocade?!"

"Yes, I got it at a great price..." Dabao said with a smile, "Shu brocade is rare, and this kind of top-quality one is even rarer, but it is definitely worthy of you, Tu girl, right? Do you like it..."

Shen Sisi nodded.

Dabao was very happy, took her and walked over again, saying: "...these are Suzhou embroidery, and these are made of silk, they are very delicate and beautiful..."

Shen Sisi smiled and said: "You also leave some for Xiaohua..."

"I stayed a long time ago, but she doesn't dare to dress too outrageously when she stays in a place like the border town. Don't worry, if she wants it, I will be willing to buy it..." Dabao said with a smile, "These are all for you ..."

Shen Sisi nodded in agreement, she knew that Dabao had always been sincere to Xiaohua, so she stopped talking.

"By the way, do you like all these jewelry?!" Dabao smiled and said, "I don't have any special vision for these jewelry, so I bought some on the recommendation of the store owner, and I often buy things for Xiaohua. I also know some good ones. Gold and silver are too dazzling, and I think they are not suitable for wearing in the capital, so I bought all jade and pearls. These jades are quite warm and moist. Do you like them?! Here you go Makeup would be nice too..."

Shen Sisi took a white jade hairpin and said with a smile, "The carving is excellent..."

"Those who can touch this kind of jade are of course the most qualified master craftsmen, so there is nothing to say about this craftsmanship, and you won't lose face when you wear it..." Dabao said with a smile: "The most rare thing is these two boxes of pearls. , one box is from the East China Sea, all of them are big, moist and bright, but they haven't been processed yet, you can find a master craftsman in the capital to get them out for you, you can do whatever you want, these white pearls are nothing, these black pearls , look, how about it?! Run it, but this box is less, only six, which is extremely rare..."

It was the first time for Shen Sisi to see authentic black pearls. Seeing its moist and bright luster, she liked it very much, and said with a smile, "I can make a hairpin, it should look good on the temples..."

"Take a look at the masters in the old silver building, they can make these..." Dabao said with a smile, "The craftsmanship is naturally much better than those in our border town. By the way, these two boxes are the largest, rare, and inlaid with jewelry. Better yet, there are a few boxes of these, which are smaller. You can play with them. I heard that white pearls can be rolled into powder and can be drunk. Whitening, you are also interested in these, look at it, I will go out in the future, and I will find some good ones, big pearls are rare, but these smaller ones are more common..."

Dabao is probably the only one who is so generous with such an expensive thing to eat and paint his face casually, and not everyone in other wealthy families can be willing to use it.

"It's hard for you to think of this, Brother Dabao, thank you..." Shen Sisi smiled, sincerely grateful.

Dabao smiled and said: "It's just that I often pay attention to these things. There are quite a few small flowers. I asked her to rub some on her face, but she was reluctant to use them. If I didn't have this experience, how would I do these things? I don't have the vision. I'm afraid I'll be deceived by others, but luckily these are in good condition, time is running short, next time I have a chance I'll find a good one and send them over..."

It was rare for him to look for these for her when he was busy, Shen Sisi was very moved, and said: "These are already very good..."

After thinking for a while, he said again: "Brother, I don't feel at ease because you are away all year round. There happens to be a famous bodyguard agency in the capital. You can invite a few bodyguards to follow you all the year round. Our family does not lack this money, otherwise you are out of the house." If you are so rich, it is inevitable that Xiao Xiao will be on your radar, what a hassle, if something happens, your family members will be more worried, and the original people around you are not as good at martial arts as those in the bodyguard bureau, so just invite them..."

Dabao naturally responded, and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you..."

Shen Sisi smiled and said: "Then I'll let Chunlan go and invite a few people back. Even in the capital, you can't be sloppy. I don't want you to have an accident..."

Dabao's eyes sank, and he nodded his head when he thought of the complicated relationship in the Hou's Mansion. He didn't dare to take Qiao in the capital, at least he had to listen to Shen Sisi, and he couldn't make trouble for her.

Shen Sisi asked Chunlan to change her clothes and go for a run. She moved very quickly, because Shen Sisi paid generously, so naturally people came to the door quickly. After a brief introduction, six bodyguards came to see Dabao , Dabao met and greeted them one by one, and the matter was settled.

When Chunlan went back to the house to change into men's clothes, Qiulan had already packed up the things that Dabao had brought, but she was still keeping some accounts. After all, these huge things had to be recorded, so it would be convenient for future inquiries. Lest it be forgotten after a long time.

There were too many things, and she took the girls for a long time to put them away, but the yard was full of piles.

Chunlan changed her clothes and came out, "Do you want my help?!"

"It's almost the same, and these things haven't been recorded..."

"Pearls..." Chunlan said with a smile: "Don't put these in the account. Tomorrow, we two will take these to the old silver building opposite the store to make some jewelry and then put them in the account. It's useless to store them one by one. ..."

Qiulan thought for a while, and said: "That's true..." The two of them counted the number, and with the number in mind, they planned to take some time to go with their things. After packing up, Qiulan said with a smile: "Who said our lady is poor, none of these things are treasures, Miss Pian has everything, I think the young master is also a discerning person, and all the things he buys are good..."

"Isn't it? Even the old ladies and wives in the mansion have never been so extravagant. There are a lot of good things in the treasury and the old lady's private house, but they are reluctant to use them up. Compared with the young ladies in the mansion, Who can get so many good things, the old lady and the wife will be happy for a long time if they reward one by chance..." Chunlan said with a smile.

Qiulan said: "Yeah, I'm probably a frog in a well. I think I'm noble and look down on others. In fact, they are really poor people. After I came out, I finally understood..."

Chunlan sighed, and said: "Miss is such a talent, her elder brother is also very powerful, but she seldom tells us about the situation in her own family. Only now do we know that there is a young master..."
