MTL - Child Bride’s Peaches and Plums Are All Over the World-Chapter 599 another
Niuniu saw that she was gone, and she was about to go back with the maid. The maid subconsciously held her and lowered her voice: "Wait a minute."
Niuniu blinked and stopped obediently.
The two stared at each other for a moment, and the palace maid exclaimed in a low voice, "You throw stones really accurately, and, you know martial arts?"
Otherwise, how could a small pebble radiate so much power?
Niuniu proudly raised her chest and said, "I only know a little bit."
Her uncle is a hero of the Jianghu, her cousin is the current head of Lingtianmen, and even her frail cousin knows a little martial arts, how could she not learn it?
She wanted to learn when she was in the capital city where Bai Yitang took her to and from, but she was young and they didn't teach her, and neither did her parents.
It was very easy to start practicing martial arts at the age of five. Although I haven't achieved anything yet, I can still fly a stone and hit one or two people.
If it wasn't for her parents' repeated orders to forbid her to speak out, she would have shown off to her classmates long ago.
Especially Qinggong, she can climb trees now. Although she can't fly like her uncle and the others, she is much more dexterous than ordinary people, and it is not a problem to climb a fence or something.
But her father said this was her way of saving her life, and she was not allowed to shout around. Looking at the court lady she admired, Niuniu used a lot of strength to resist the urge to show off to her.
stood behind the tree for a quarter of an hour, making sure that they did not return the carbine, then they walked out quietly and swayed back to the main hall with a relaxed expression.
He Zipei frequently looked at the side door, and when he saw that the girl finally came back, he turned his head and sat down with a sigh of relief.
Niuniu touched Gu Jingyun's side and continued to sit down. She lowered her head and lowered her eyes and pretended that nothing had happened, but out of the corner of her eyes, she couldn't help but aim at the Princess Dongying opposite.
When she turned her eyes to the opposite side for the third time, a cup of tea suddenly appeared in front of her, which startled her.
Niuniu raised her head quickly, and met Gu Jingyun's cold gaze, she took the teacup shyly.
Gu Jingyun glanced at the opposite side calmly, and said to her: "This song "Spring River, Flowers and Moonlight Night" is the finale, please listen carefully."
He motioned her to look at the hourglass, "I left the venue in a short time. After all, it is the annual New Year's Eve palace banquet. The people of Lefang are still very dedicated, and don't let their hard work."
Niuniu stuck out her tongue secretly, not daring to look around, she raised her head and looked at the musicians playing musical instruments in the center of the hall.
As Gu Jingyun said, this song "Spring River, Flowers and Moonlight Night" is the finale, and the level is super high. Even people like Niuniu who half understand and half understand enjoy listening to it.
When the song is over, people will also leave.
The emperor looked at the time, raised a glass and celebrated New Year's Eve with everyone. After tonight, officials of the Great Chu have a fifteen-day rest period, and the imperial court will not open the printing until the sixteenth of the first lunar month.
But even after the opening of the printing press, officials still have two days off.
So the treatment of civil servants in Dachu is quite good.
Qin Xinfang and Gu Jingyun, who are not low-ranking officials, received better treatment.
During the Chinese New Year, the emperor not only sent more money and grain to the household, but also selected some items from the inner treasury to reward his ministers, and all the above six books in the court were rewarded.
And Qin Xinfang and Gu Jingyun have a good relationship with the royal family, and they only get a lot of rewards. Tonight, the emperor will also give food to their mansion. Although the food was already cold when it was delivered to the house, it was produced by the royal chef, and it tasted pretty good when it was hot.
The dishes given to Gu Mansion are all good dishes that the imperial chef is good at. When Gu Jingyun bid farewell to his uncle's family and returned to his own home, it was just in time for the hot dishes in the kitchen to be served.
An An was sitting on the blanket in a bright red Pfalfa padded jacket, with a blushing face. She was holding a nine-chain solution, and she turned her head when she heard the footsteps. She cheered when she saw her father, and ran away after leaving the nine-chain. past.
"Don't come here, my father has a chill on him." Gu Jingyun hurriedly stopped, An An didn't listen, and ran over to open his hands and asked him to hug him.
Gu Jingyun looked helpless, Li Baolu picked up her daughter and hugged her into her arms and coaxed, "Wait for your dad to change his clothes and let him tell you a story later."
An An immediately put down her pouting mouth, pointed to the inner room and said, "Go, go, I want to hear the story."
Gu Jingyun went to change his clothes, warmed his hands before he came out to hug An An, sat on the couch and asked, "Are you hungry?"
"I'm a little hungry," An An asked strangely, "Why do you eat so late tonight?"
"Because you have to wait for me," Gu Jingyun rubbed her head and smiled softly: "My father went to the palace to attend the palace banquet, and he didn't come back until very late. We have to have a reunion dinner on New Year's Eve, and then the family can be reunited. So you have to wait for me to come back and eat together."
An An said in distress: "But I have eaten dumplings just now."
Gu Jingyun smiled, "It doesn't matter, the snack just now is considered a snack, and if you eat a little more when you eat later, it will be a full meal, and God will tell it."
An An is relieved.
Hearts and Qingling put all the cabbage in place, and then bowed down.
They are going down for dinner too. Tonight is New Year's Eve. As usual, they can drink some fruit wine tonight, and the wife also bought them a lot of dry candy.
There was only a family of three left in the house. Gu Jingyun hugged An An and sat at the table, made her rice with soup, and gave her a spoon to eat by herself.
Li Baolu put on a bib for her. Although she is smart and smart, she can not only run and walk, but also speak and read, but she still loses when she eats.
Ann knows that children need bibs to eat, so she sits down obediently and lets her mother tie her belt.
An An held the spoon and looked at his father, Gu Jingyun smiled slightly, moved his chopsticks to pick up a chopstick of the dish, and said with a smile, "Eat it."
An'an buried himself in hard work.
Li Baolu and Gu Jingyun couldn't help flashing tenderness when they looked at her. Who said their daughters are domineering, obviously so well-behaved, so obedient, and so capable.
The couple looked at their daughter and thought she was fine everywhere.
Gu Jingyun reached out and poured Baolu a bowl of soup, "Drink some soup to warm up your body first." He also brought An An some dishes that she could eat.
A family of three eats quietly.
After dinner, there is a vigil. This year, Qu Weizhen and Qu Jingxi were not there. No one accompanies An An to run around the house, and it is much quieter.
A family of three sat cross-legged on the couch covered with blankets, An An sat between the two and continued to play Jiu Lianhuan, while Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu sat opposite each other, surrounding her in the middle.
Gu Jingyun stretched out his hand to hold Bao Lu's hand, and said, "Tonight's palace banquet was very lively. I talked to the envoys from the Western Regions, and they should only be the fallen nobles who came out to do business. envoy."
"so?"
"So their focus is not on politics, but on business." Gu Jingyun said: "The focus of Honglu Temple is still on the Tatars, Yilibali, Le Dynasty, North Korea and other countries bordering the Great Chu. , Japan and the Western Regions do not pay much attention to the non-bordering tile thorns, especially Japan and the Western Regions."
The relationship between Vassar and Tatar is both relatives and enemies. They come from the same lineage. Although they have different tribes and even different beliefs, they will unite in the face of Chu and other powerful enemies. Historically, the two sides have been united, even unified. There are many cases of fighting with Da Chu when it rises and expands to the south.
But they are also enemies. Now they are not a country. Now the tile thorns are broken up, the control of the Great Khan is weak, the major tribes are independent, and the royal court has the final say in the Tatar country. It is said that they have been fighting recently. In terms of the strategy of far-reaching and close-attacking, it is mostly beneficial to Da Chu to make good thorns.
Therefore, although the tile thorn is not bordered by the Great Chu, the cabinet and the Honglu Temple have attached great importance to it only after the Li Dynasty.
In Japan and the Western Regions, one is separated from the Great Chu by a sea, and the other is separated from the Great Chu by a large land, so they can have business transactions, so Honglu Temple does not pay much attention to them.
Especially the people from the Western Regions, they didn't even have a national letter, and at first glance they knew that they had reported to Honglu Temple as envoys. If they hadn't been able to take out their country's official title token, Honglu Temple would not want to receive them.
Honghong Temple doesn't pay attention to them, but Gu Jingyun does.
"I have been in contact with them, and they are very interested in Dachu's products. Don't you worry about the academy's capital chain and where students can exercise? If you can reach a cooperation intention with them, the things they make will not worry about selling. . Westerners have less stringent requirements for commodities."
"Then we want to open a corresponding store operation?"
"No, just contact them in the name of Yunlu Academy," Gu Jingyun said with a light smile: "All business transactions are recorded in Yunlu Academy, materials, craftsmanship, labor, and finished products are all imported from Yunlu Academy. College out."
Li Baolu imagined this mode of operation, her heart was agitated and her eyes lit up. "This is good, we have to plan well, plan."
The corners of Gu Jingyun's mouth were slightly raised, and he held her hand tightly and smiled: "It's not urgent, your students can't learn so quickly, we can hang them with other business first."
The tea from Qiongzhou has been planted, and it has been put on the market last summer, but the sales volume is not very good.
Because there are many famous tea leaves, and the tea produced in Qiongzhou has a good fragrance, but a little taste, Baolu likes it very much, but he doesn't like it. Many people who are used to drinking West Lake tea and Wuyi tea also don't like it.
Qiongzhou is now taking the route of small profits but quick turnover.
But no matter how small profits are but quick turnover, after passing through a strait, it is still not much lower after calculating the transportation cost. If Qiongzhou tea is not famous, it will be difficult to seize the market.
Qiongzhou has many mountains, and many people have started to grow tea on the mountains since the tea income was generated.
"Even if I have asked Zhang Yiyan to control the number of plantings, this year's tea production will still skyrocket. I don't want to hurt tea farmers in other places because of Qiongzhou tea, so I can only choose to export."
"Have you chosen a Westerner?"
Gu Jingyun nodded slightly, "I have made an appointment with them to invite them to watch tea in a few days. If it is appropriate, I will sign this contract on behalf of Zhang Yiyan."
"The grassland also needs tea very much," Li Baolu said thoughtfully, "Why don't you get in touch with the Tartars and the envoys of Watts?"
"It's too involved, I'm afraid of trouble." Gu Jingyun squeezed her hand and said, "Besides, that's the soup from someone else's pot. If I go and pick up the meat in the pot, won't I be outraged by the public?"
So it's better to cook a pot of soup by yourself. You can choose whether to eat meat or drink soup.
