It was afternoon, and the sun was shining through the gaps between the trees in Cheng's backyard.
One piece happened to shine inside the open box.
"Wow!"
"boom!"
"Clang!"
For a moment, there was chaos around Mrs. Sun. Some couldn't help but marvel, some accidentally knocked over the teacup on the table, and some stood up and bumped the stool because they were too surprised.
Even the male guests over there were attracted by the movement of the female guests and looked over.
"This... this... this..." The cousin of the Sun family rubbed her eyes several times, wondering if she had seen it wrong.
Stainless steel and modern polishing technology are enough to make this butterfly hairpin shine.
The swaying butterfly wings make the more than ten embellished gems on it emit colorful brilliance.
The whole hairpin exudes fatal temptation.
"What's wrong, is this?" Cheng Zhijie came over to ask, but was stunned when he saw what his wife was holding.
It's not that he hasn't seen good things before. He often goes into the palace, but even the ladies in the palace have never seen them use such things.
"Did you give it to me?" He glanced at his eldest son who was a little embarrassed next to him.
"Yes!" Cheng Chumo nodded. If he had known better, he would have used a rope to help the box.
In fact, the box was still in good condition when Tang Ping gave it to him yesterday, but he couldn't stand it and he and several other brothers opened it for a while on the way. After returning home, he kept opening and closing it before going to bed.
The total cost of buying something like this online is just over 20 yuan. How can the quality of the box it comes with be any better?
He was a little loose after going back and forth like this.
"Since it is your son's filial piety, you should keep it well!"
At this time, Cheng Zhijie certainly would not ask Cheng Chumo where the things came from in front of everyone.
And actually, he had a guess that this was probably given by Tang Ping.
He gave Cheng Chumo a look and walked outside with him.
Cheng Chumo quickly said: "Dad, this is what Brother Ping gave me as a reward for working the hardest in Shanghe Village these days!"
"Humph, then you don't know how to secretly give it to your mother to get all this limelight in one day!" Cheng Zhijie said, looking at Mrs. Sun over there who had already put the hairpin on her head under the encouragement of the female relatives, and a smile couldn't help but appear at the corner of her mouth. .
"Well... Dad, if you have nothing to do this afternoon... I'll just... I'll go read a book?"
"Hey, you can read now?" Cheng Zhijie rolled his eyes at him: "But recently, the teacher from the official school said that you have made some progress in your studies, which is pretty good!"
Cheng Chumo didn't expect to hear a compliment from his father, so he rubbed the back of his head: "Hey, that kid just quit!"
Cheng Zhijie is quite satisfied with Cheng Chumo's recent changes. All this is because of Tang Ping from Shanghe Village. I heard that Tang Ping will be rewarded for his merits recently because of the negotiations with East Vietnam. When the time comes, he will reciprocate the favor and help. The last two sentences.
"Hey, it's a pity that I only celebrated my birthday two months ago..."
Cheng Zhijie shook his head and walked back.
But at this time, all the guests who came today knew that Cheng Chumo gave Sun a great treasure as a birthday gift, and he praised Cheng Zhijie fiercely.
At the same time in the palace, Li Yuanji touched his belly and complained: "Second brother, why don't you know how to leave two cooks? What are you treating us to at noon today!"
Nowadays, they are used to the food prepared by the cooks who have learned from Xiaoluo, and they no longer feel comfortable eating anything else.
"Okay, I didn't ask you to come here today to let you eat." Li Shimin rolled his eyes at him: "Have you read the letter from the fourth brother?"
"I didn't expect that our Tang Ping actually has a girl he likes. Hey, I remember when I was his age, my Chengzong could already run all over the yard!" Li Jiancheng smiled like an aunt.
"Yes, where are there people who are still not married at the age of 23 or 4? If you ask me, my second brother should have sent a letter through Yu Shinan last year saying that all men who are not married at the age of 22 and women who are not married at the age of 20 , the marriage should be matched by the government!"
"There is something wrong with this girl's identity!" Li Shimin frowned and looked at the letter sent by Li Xuanba: "Surprisingly, among all the craftsmen in Fuyang City, no one knows whose family this girl Wang Qingluan belongs to."
"Do you think it's possible that she used a pseudonym?" Li Yuanji asked: "After all, judging from the description, she shouldn't be the kind of woman from a commoner family!"
"Aren't you talking nonsense?" Li Jiancheng retorted: "I told you that she still has King Zheng's order in her hand, so it must have something to do with King Zheng of East Vietnam."
"This is the strangest thing. You can count the number of people in Fuyang who can have a relationship with Prince Zheng and get his token, right? Why can't this person be found?"
"Hey!" Li Yuanji read the letter again and threw it on the table: "What will happen if we find out? Think about it, what kind of relationship does a girl get to get King Zheng's order?"
"Hey, why are you so cowardly? What? Is our Tang Ping worse than their Prince Zheng from Dongyue?" Li Chengqian said with hatred, "Then Dongyue didn't announce whose girl Prince Zheng was with. We’re engaged, but the man is unmarried and the woman is unmarried, why can’t we do anything?”
After Li Yuanji said this, Li Jiancheng quit. In his opinion, his nephew Tang Ping should have good looks, ability and character, as well as family background. With people like them, With an uncle here, how many people in the world can have a higher background than him?
Besides, what happened to King Zheng of Dongyue? Although they are currently fighting each other between Datang and Dongyue, at least in the eyes of the three brothers, Dongyue will become the territory of Datang sooner or later. It is just a matter of time.
At that time, it’s unclear whether King Zheng of Dongyue is King Zheng or not. Still want to compete with their Tang Ping?
"Okay, let's wait for the news from Fuyang first. No matter what, we have to know his identity before we can make a decision!" Li Shimin stopped his eldest brother and his third brother from continuing to bicker here: "This time Tang Ping's mission to Dongyue is indispensable, why don't you think about how to reward him?"
"This..." Li Jiancheng hesitated for a moment: "How about recruiting him to Honglu Temple? I think Wang Shaoqing of Honglu Temple is getting older, so he can just go home to take care of himself and give up his position."
Li Shimin rolled his eyes at him. If I remember correctly, Wang Shaoqing is one year older than his eldest brother Li Jiancheng. He is in his prime when he is in his forties, so he needs to go back to take care of himself?
However, this Wang Shaoqing is from the Wang family, and his position is indeed a corpse. If possible, Li Shimin really wants to replace him.
"I don't think it's appropriate!" Li Yuanji raised his hand and said.
