As soon as he arrived at the back house, Cai Luan heard the voice and came out to welcome him, leading him to the lady's boudoir. Then she placed the tea and snacks and left quietly, leaving only Liu Haojia and Zhang Peijia in the room.
At this time, Liu Haojia took out a silk sac from his arms and handed it over and said, "Sister, this is a gift from my brother!"
Miss Zhang took the silk bag but did not open it in a hurry. Instead, she looked at Liu Haojia and said, "Brother, you know I don't care about gifts. I just ask you to take care of yourself when you travel far next time! You have been out for so long this time, and everyone is worried about it." Lost a lot of weight!”
Liu Haojia laughed and said: "I know what the girl wants to say! Unless there is something important next time, I will not take a sea ship!"
Miss Zhang breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, and when she thought about the fear and anxiety over the past few months, her eyes became red! After all, sailing in this era is not like modern times, and the safety of seagoing ships is too poor! In the event of a storm, it is not uncommon for an entire fleet to disappear!
When Liu Haojia saw that his eyes were red, he was naturally extremely apologetic! Think about it, Miss Zhang, a girl who has not yet left the court, is willing to follow him to Tianjin alone. This is something that is not allowed by feudal ethics. Just think about it and you will know how much pressure she has endured!
But it happened that Liu Haojia had to leave for the south at this time, and it would take half a year. She was left alone and helpless, and at the same time she had to worry about Liu Haojia. I'm afraid this life would be extremely difficult! So Liu Haojia comforted her and said: "Sister, don't be sad. You also know my plans later. I'm afraid I won't be able to leave here in a few years, so don't worry! Otherwise, let's see what brother brings to you first." one's gift?"
Miss Zhang felt much better after hearing Liu Haojia's awkward comfort. She wiped the corners of her eyes before opening the silk sac in her hand, and then exclaimed: "Oh my God!"
I saw four huge pearls shining brightly in the black silk sac, which made Miss Zhang excited! Even the rich and powerful in her family have never seen such round beads! So she hesitated and said, "Brother, this is the legendary walking bead, right?"
Liu Haojia brought the tea tray over and motioned for her to pour the pearls into it. After Ms. Zhang did as she was told, she found the pearls rolling on the tea tray. She couldn't help but pick up the beads with gleaming eyes, as if she couldn't put them down!
At this time, Liu Haojia took out a small box from his arms, presented it like a treasure, and said, "Sister, look at this again!"
Miss Zhang took one look at the box and then at the walking beads, and she knew that the ones that could be placed alongside the walking beads were probably something more valuable! She hesitated for a moment before taking the box and opening it, and couldn't help but exclaimed again!
Inside the box turned out to be an emerald hairpin! The jadeite material is completely green, with a soft light color. It is as warm as water when held in the hand. At first glance, it is the best jadeite!
The most amazing thing is that a white camellia is carved on the top of the hairpin! And there is a gold butterfly sitting on the camellia, seeming to be sucking nectar! Not only is the entire butterfly lifelike, but the two pairs of wings are a bit thinner than a cicada's wings! When you hold the hairpin in your hand, the butterfly's wings are trembling slightly, as if it is about to fly!
There is no woman who doesn’t love jewelry, and these are no exception! When she saw this hairpin, she immediately forgot about the walking beads! This is not to say that she doesn’t like walking beads, but it’s just that the walking beads need to be processed a lot before they can be made into jewelry. But there is a piece of jewelry that can be used immediately in front of her, so the choice is obvious at a glance!
Liu Haojia watched with joy as Miss Zhang played with the jewelry and running beads, and felt that these two gifts were the right ones! Of course, there is no need to tell the origin of the gift! But maybe Ms. Zhang can guess it herself!
After playing with it for a long time, Miss Zhang handed the hairpin to Liu Haojia and said with a blushing face: "Brother, put it on for me!"
Liu Haojia held the hosta in her hand and said dumbfounded: "Sister, it's not that my brother won't help. Your hair is very complicated and will fall apart as soon as I touch it. You should do it yourself!"
Miss Zhang blushed and glared at him before picking up the hairpin again. But she also knew that it would be a bit difficult for Liu Haojia to insert the hairpin for him! This eldest young man has never touched Yang Chun Shui since he was a child. He has to rely on others to take care of his own hair, so how can he take care of women's hair!
Miss Zhang gently pulled out the hairpin on her head, then gently inserted the jade hairpin into it, and then said, "Brother, what do you think?"
Liu Haojia clapped her hands and said, "It looks good, it looks good! Don't take it off today, just wear it!"
Then Liu Haojia played with her pearls for a while. Miss Zhang suddenly remembered and said, "My brother hasn't bathed and rested since he came back. It's my sister's fault!"
Then she immediately called Cai Luan to arrange for Liu Haojia to take a bath first, while she cooked and prepared meals for him. Naturally, the two of them held candles and talked at night, expressing their sincere feelings to each other!
Early the next morning, all kinds of people came to report to Liu Haojia on official business that had been backlogged for more than half a year, and he was instantly overwhelmed! It was not completed until the afternoon.
When he finally had some free time, Liu Haojia sent for the two of them and Guo Zhankui. The two of them had not seen Liu Haojia for half a year, so naturally they had a lot to say! Especially since he had arranged many tasks for them before leaving, they needed to report.
But after they met, Liu Haojia waved his hand and said, "Let's go to the military camp first to see how the soldiers are doing."
Then everyone mounted their horses and went straight to the military camp outside the city. The military camp at this time was completely different from when Liu Haojia left! When he left, the military camp had only a vague frame, but now it had become a real military camp!
When he arrived at the military camp, Liu Haojia saw that the wall made of logs was very neat. He looked closer and found that it was actually two layers of wood with rammed earth sandwiched between them. The entire city wall was extremely strong! Moreover, the fortifications such as the Hope Tower and Arrow Tower look impregnable!
Walking to the gate of the camp, Liu Haojia saw a guard wearing a brand-new fat jacket standing upright, holding a firegun in his hand. There is also a three-edged bayonet stuck under the muzzle! The shape of the fire blunderbuss is almost the same as that of the late model of the muzzleloader. However, the bayonet had to use a three-edged bayonet due to poor smelting technology.
When mentioning the triangular bayonet, everyone will think of the Chinese Type 56 bayonet! And this kind of bayonet has many people on the Internet talking about it like a smallpox! People often talk about the three-pointed bayonet. It is the most brutal bayonet in the world. Because of its weird cross-section, it will kill you if you stab it!
They also said that the poison was quenched when the bayonet was remanufactured, so it was called a poisonous knife! It alarmed the United Nations, and finally passed a resolution telling China not to use such vicious and cruel weapons in the future, so now we no longer have three-edged bayonets!
