"Yes!" Zi Yuan turned around and walked out of the room, found Shen Wei, and told Shen Wei everything Zhao Xuanyi said without missing a word.
After Shen Wei heard this, he immediately nodded.
"Sure, I understand. Let's do it now so that the young master can rest assured!"
"Sorry, Brother Shen!" After Shen Wei left, Zi Yuan thought more and more something was wrong. Although Li Yukun didn't have money for vegetables now, he couldn't really let Zhao Xuanyi sell it to others?
By then, it won't be a matter of a few dollars. Zi Yuan thought of this and hurried to the front hall, took the paper, ink, pen and inkstone, and wrote a small note!
"Magpie!" Zi Yuan shouted loudly. A maid came back in a hurry
"Sister Ziyuan, is something wrong?" Magpie asked. Ziyuan looked around and saw that there was no one else there, so she hurriedly put the note in Magpie's hand.
"When you hear about me, hurry back to the general's mansion and hand this piece of paper to the general with your own hands. If anyone asks you, you can't say anything about it. Just say that I asked you to go shopping, and there must be no mistakes!"
"Yes!" Magpie said nervously, and immediately rushed to the general's mansion! Zi Yuan sighed, hoping that things would have a perfect outcome!
Zhao Xuanyi walked out of the backyard and walked in the atrium. When he saw the courtyard, Zhao Xuanyi remembered that he had asked Su Xiaoding to make something in it!
It’s been almost half a month, and I don’t know how it is? Zhao Xuanyi walked into the courtyard. When Chen Guodong saw Zhao Xuanyi, he immediately stood up and saluted.
"My lord is here!"
"Well! It's hard work! I'm going to see Su Xiaoding!" Zhao Xuanyi said with a smile and walked into the room. As a result, entering the room was an eye-opener for Zhao Xuanyi. He saw four large long tables in the room, filled with various tools, such as hammers, axes, saws, etc.!
There was also the sound of tinkling iron coming from the side. Zhao Xuanyi followed the sound and walked over. It got hotter and hotter as he walked. It turned out that there was a stove inside. When he saw Su Xiaoding building something with a small hammer, Zhao Xuanyi did not disturb him. , watching quietly from the sidelines!
Su Xiaoding played for a long time. When she was tired, she took a rest. She took the towel on the side and wiped her face. She was about to drink water. When she turned around and saw Zhao Xuanyi, Su Xiaoding hurriedly put down the towel and saluted.
"I didn't know the master was here!" Zhao Xuanyi smiled
"Why are you so polite? We are all our brothers, thank you for your hard work!" Su Xiaoding smiled.
"It's not hard, these things are quite fun!"
"How's it going? Are there any results?"
"Yes, sir, please come here and take a look!" Su Xiaoding brought Zhao Xuanyi to the table nearby. It was covered with a black cloth. Su Xiaoding carefully opened the black cloth on it, and there was a burst of colorful sounds. The light was reflected, making Zhao Xuanyi unable to open his eyes!
After taking a closer look, Zhao Xuanyi couldn't help but smile.
"I said you can do it! I thought you couldn't do it, but did you actually do it?" Zhao Xuanyi gave Su Xiaoding a total of four drawings, each of which was an item. Zhao Xuanyi gently picked up a silver Butterfly, this is one of the four drawings that Zhao Xuanyi gave Su Xiaoding. It is a hairpin with a silver hairpin in front.
The back is different. Behind the hairpin is a silver butterfly. This is different from ordinary silver butterflies. Although the belly of the butterfly is the tail of the hairpin, the two wings above it are unique. different!
I saw many beautiful patterns carved on the two wings, and each butterfly wing was inlaid with three small-shaped gems. These gems were the broken jade that Zhao Xuanyi bought from Sun Ning. The wings of each hairpin butterfly were There is only one color of gemstone.
Red, green, amber, etc., and the most surprising thing is that the butterfly's wings and the hairpin are not fixed, but connected by two small springs. When worn on the head, it only takes When the head shakes, the butterfly's wings will also shake, making it look like it is alive. It keeps flapping its wings and looks lifelike!
Zhao Xuanyi took it in his hand and looked at it carefully, and couldn't help but nod.
"Yes, you did a great job!" Su Xiaoding also laughed after hearing this.
"Sir, it's a pity that this is the only hairpin I made!"
"Huh?" Zhao Xuanyi looked down and saw that only the hairpin in his hand was just a hairpin, and the others were all hairpins!
Only then did Zhao Xuanyi realize that hairpins were not as good as hairpins for fixing hair, so Su Xiaoding improved them all!
Zhao Xuanyi smiled
"You did the right thing, I didn't think it through!" Su Xiaoding felt relieved when she saw that Zhao Xuanyi didn't blame him.
"Master Shengming!" Zhao Xuanyi lowered his head and looked at the others. Su Xiaoding made a hairpin in total, and three hairpin butterflies. Three of the four butterflies were inlaid with emeralds, and one was inlaid with rubies. The rest were The two little birds have hairpins, and their wings are like butterflies, waving continuously with springs.
In addition to these, there are three crane hairpins. The cranes have different shapes and the whole body is straight, so it is the most perfect hairpin. Zhao Xuanyi gave a thumbs up.
"Don't worry, I will sell each of these you make and give you one tael of silver. I will never break my promise!"
"Thank you, sir!" Su Xiaoding was still judging. If she made a hundred of them, wouldn't she be able to get a hundred taels?
This is hundreds of times more than what you earn as a soldier! Zhao Xuanyi took two butterflies, one inlaid with jade and one with ruby. He also took a small bird and a crane hairpin.
"I'll take these first. You can keep track of how many you have, and I'll give them to you when the time comes!"
"Thank you, sir, but... sir, I have never finished the last drawing you gave me!"
"Why?" Zhao Xuanyi asked.
"Your last drawing is too complicated and requires a lot of silver and jade. I don't have enough silver anymore!"
"I understand. I'll ask Brother Shen to bring you three hundred taels of silver tonight. You can continue to do it, as long as you don't embezzle!" Zhao Xuanyi said with a smile.
Su Xiaoding hurriedly smiled
"My lord, you are just kidding me! How dare I?"
"Hahaha!" Zhao Xuanyi laughed. In the general's mansion, Li Yukun held a note in his hand. There were very few words on it, but Li Yukun could tell at a glance that it was written by Zi Yuan. Magpie also said that it was given by Zi Yuan.
[Report to the general, because my uncle did not give any money for transporting the vegetables to the border last time, he has now decided to transport all the vegetables he just made to Piaoyun Pavilion. He also hopes that the general will find a way quickly and don’t wait for his uncle to sell the vegetables to others. , Ziyuan!
】After Li Yukun read it, a smile appeared on his face, and he gave the note to Li Hanyan and Li Hanrui to read it in turn.
"Don't tell me, although Ziyuan is already waiting for her son-in-law, her heart is still towards us!" Li Hanyan snorted coldly.
"Sister Ziyuan grew up with me, so naturally she won't help that bastard!" After Li Hanrui put down the note, his face didn't look very good.
"Father, I think we should give the money to my brother-in-law. He has been busy with these vegetables for so long and has taken so many risks. If he really sells the vegetables to others, let alone the price, it will not be good for us. It is absolutely harmful to everyone!" Li Yukun sighed.
"The imperial court has been slow to pay me military pay. If I pay now, I will be spending my money! If the imperial court keeps delaying, then won't it be me who spends the money in the end?"
"The affairs of the imperial court can be solved slowly, but if you lose credibility with your brother-in-law, then... it will be difficult to handle things in the future!" Li Hanrui said this very cryptically. Zhao Xuanyi was more intelligent than this. If he is angry, Now, if he makes something good in the future, we may not be able to get it!
Li Yukun also knew this, and finally nodded helplessly.
"Let's do this, Han Rui, tomorrow you take out two hundred taels from the warehouse and send it to your son-in-law. The vegetables that were transported before should be one hundred taels. The remaining one hundred taels will be used as money for next time, which will also give him peace of mind. Some!"
"Yes! I'll go tomorrow!" Li Hanrui said.
"Why tomorrow? Can't we go today?" Li Hanyan said straightforwardly. Li Hanrui smiled and thought that my sister has not grown up yet.
"Sister, I'm talking about! This brother-in-law just said that the vegetables will be transported back to Piaoyun Pavilion, and you will pay the money the next moment. Didn't you tell my brother-in-law that Zi Yuan has tipped us off?"
"Oh! Got it!" Li Hanyan said with a smile. After Zhao Xuanyi returned to the backyard, he saw Zi Yuan tidying up the room. Because Zhao Xuanyi did not allow anyone else to come in except Zi Yuan, Zi Yuan took care of the whole room. Fortunately, there was only one room, so it was not very complicated. tired!
"Sister Ziyuan, put it down first. Come and see, what did I bring you?" After Zhao Xuanyi finished speaking, he put the package on the table!
Zi Yuan walked towards the work in hand
"Uncle, did you buy me red bean paste again?"
"What red bean paste? You think about food every day! Look what this is?" After Zhao Xuanyi finished speaking, he slowly opened the package.
Two butterflies, a small bird and a crane appeared in front of her. Ziyuan stretched out her hand full of surprise, carefully picked up a butterfly hairpin, shook it gently with her hand, and saw the wings inlaid with gems. Wave it to look like a real butterfly in the garden.
Zi Yuan was very happy after seeing it and turned to look at Zhao Xuanyi
"Is this for me?"
"These are all, but this is only part of it. There are other colors of gemstones that have not been made. After they are made, all the jade stones of each style and color will be put together for you. You can change an animal or a color every day. Wear it, it must look good!" Zhao Xuanyi looked at Zi Yuan dotingly, with a happy smile on his face
"Here, put it on and take a look!" Zhao Xuanyi picked up the butterfly hairpin and put it on Zi Yuan's head. The biggest advantage of the hairpin is that it can be worn horizontally or vertically, so you can wear it any way!
After Ziyuan stayed on her head, she came to the mirror and took a look. She saw a green butterfly on her head. She turned her head slightly and waved her trembling wings, as if a real butterfly had landed on her head. With the gems emitting colorful light, it looks so beautiful!
"Do you like it?" Zhao Xuanyi asked softly. Zi Yuan turned to look at Zhao Xuanyi, nodding her head.
"I like it! Zi Yuan likes it the most!" After saying that, Zi Yuan rushed into Zhao Xuanyi's arms.
Zhao Xuanyi patted Zi Yuan on the back
"As long as you like it!" Zi Yuan couldn't help but raise her head and kissed Zhao Xuanyi's cheek, nose, and then lips. Now Zi Yuan no longer knew how to express her love and could only express it through actions!
"Uncle...take me to bed!" A voice as thin as a mosquito passed into Zhao Xuanyi's ears, just like an imperial order.
Zhao Xuanyi lowered his head and looked at Zi Yuan
"Are you ready?" Zi Yuan nodded shyly. Zhao Xuanyi picked up Zi Yuan and rushed to his big bed. As their clothes fell off one by one, Zi Yuan's unique voice came again. It came from inside the room, as euphemistic as a nightingale, as bright as a white spirit, singing a swan song under the care of Zhao Xuanyi!
