Chapter 184 His Gift
Just after lunch, Lu Jiu helped Sun's make the stuffing, and the old lady was also helping.

Lu Sanqiu came back with the mule cart. He led the mule to the stable, fed the mule, washed his hands, and gave Lu Jiu today's money.

But Lu Sanqiu's hesitant appearance made Lu Jiu a little curious.

Lu Jiu pulled Lu Sanqiu aside: "What's the matter with the third brother?"

Lu Sanqiu thought for a while, and still said to Lu Jiu: "I met the county magistrate at the gate of Baiwei Building today."

Lu Jiu hummed and motioned for him to continue.

"The magistrate asked me to send you a box."

Lu Jiu is a girl who has just divorced, and Fu Lanqing is a foreigner. For the sake of Lu Jiu's reputation, Lu Sanqiu can only tell Lu Jiu quietly.

"Where's the box?"

"on the car."

Lu Jiu lifted the curtain of the car to take a look, and found a very beautiful small box inside.

Qian Qian: "It's rosewood!!"

Rosewood is also known as "the king's wood".

Rosewood is deep purple in color, calm and lustrous.Its wood stress is small and dense, and it is not easy to deform and crack.At the same time, due to the extremely fine wood fibers and high hardness of rosewood, which is the first of all woods, it is very easy to carve finely, and any delicate and complicated artistic expression can be perfectly realized on rosewood.It has always been a special wood for royal and noble furniture. In addition, red sandalwood grows slowly and takes at least 800 years to become a material. Therefore, the price is very expensive, ranking first among all kinds of wood.

This box alone is worth no less than 1000 taels of silver.

The boxes are so valuable, not to mention the value of the things inside.

There is nothing to be courteous, and it is either a traitor or a thief!

Lu Jiu held the box in his arms and asked again: "He just asked you to send something, didn't he say anything else?"

"Yes..." Lu Sanqiu didn't hold back, and said directly: "The county magistrate wants to eat ice-skin mooncakes with fruit fillings, and he also wants to order some."

Lu Jiu said without thinking: "But, I have already signed a monopoly contract with Baiweilou, and I can only sell the snowy mooncakes to the Baiweilou family."

"Then what should we do?" Lu Sanqiu was a little anxious: "The magistrate, we can't afford to offend him."

"Although I can't sell it to others, it doesn't mean I can't give it to others." Lu Jiu said directly: "Third brother, in the future, you can take out ten ice-skin mooncakes filled with fruit and send them to the county government."

Although she made less money, she kept her reputation. The most important thing is that what Fu Lanqing sent has already exceeded the value of the snowy mooncake itself, so she is not at a disadvantage.

Lu Sanqiu nodded: "Okay, I will write it down."

When Lu Jiu returned to the house, she couldn't wait to open the box.

The box is divided into two layers, the first layer is jewelry, which contains several sets of masks, a set of gold masks, a set of pearl masks, a set of jade masks, and a set of gem masks.

The lower layer is four sets of beautiful skirts, which are silky to the touch and make people love it. There are brocades of gold, and brocades of floating brocade, organdy gauze as thin as a cicada's wings, and fresh and elegant plain fabrics. Kam.

Don't ask how Lu Jiu recognized it, she just thinks that these clothes and jewelry are beautiful, Qian Qian told her that brocade is still a royal tribute, there are only two pieces a year, the kind that can make the concubine break her head, but money Money did not dare to say.

The four sets of skirts are just matched with the four sets of heads.

It has to be said that this gift was sent into Lu Jiu's heart.
