Dressed As a Farm Boy, He Cheated on His Way Out of the Desert.

 Chapter 399 Another hugely profitable deal!

 Some people have it as a jade pendant, some have it as a ring, they are all small accessories.

 But at their age and status, how could the accessories they wear when going out be defective? They are all of high quality.

 The elders gave it to me, but I dare not refuse.

This wave of generous gifts and good news were received openly, confidently, and with a smile.

When the old men saw her eyes shining brightly, they were so happy that they even secretly wagged their tails. They couldn't help but laugh so hard.

An old man smiled and said, "This little girl is good, greedy for money, and will be a good housekeeper when she grows up!"

Liu Zhiheng took the good news to the side and asked, "Fu Niu'er, didn't you bring a gift for uncle? What good things can you show to uncle?"

 “Okay,” Jiayin made a fortune and felt that he had gotten his money back, so he waved to Dongmei happily.

Dongmei stepped forward, carefully put down the things in her arms, and then took off the basket covering it.

No one cared about it at first. After all, what is good in the eyes of a little girl may not be good in their eyes.

As a result, a pot of flowers appeared under the basket, which was unexpected and made them all stand up in shock.

 “Oh, it seems to be Qiubang!”

 “It’s the Qiubang, it’s unmistakable!”

Everyone swarmed around and admired the graceful orchids in front of them.

This pot of orchid has green and vibrant leaves, with five or six flower stems sticking out from the middle, and each flower stem has seven or eight flower buds.

 Some flower buds are already in full bloom, while others are shy and half-covered.

The ivory petals are as silk-like and have a great texture.

 Bow your head and smell it, the fragrance of the flowers will penetrate your heart and spleen.

 “Good flowers, really rare and good flowers!”

The old men all loved it so much that they wished they could plant this pot of orchid in their eyes and take it away quickly.

Mr. Liu also loved the orchid very much. He was afraid that everyone would accidentally hurt the orchid, so he quickly stopped everyone from coming forward, and asked someone to move a low table, and then he safely placed the flower pot on it.

An old man with a white beard was particularly fond of orchids. He walked around the table several times and finally said, "Brother Liu, can you give me these orchids? I'm willing to pay you a thousand taels of silver!"

Before Mr. Liu could respond, the other old man stopped and choked, "What are you talking about? How can such an elegant gentleman be bought with money? It's really vulgar.

"Well, I have a pot of spring orchid there! Brother Liu, I can exchange it with you, two pots for one pot, is it okay?"

Unfortunately, Mr. Liu refused to let go at all and kept waving his hands, "No, nothing can be exchanged. My Zhiheng is a good-for-nothing. He failed in the academic examination. But now it is the end of autumn and he has been awarded a fourth-grade official, which can be regarded as a gold medal. .

“This pot of orchids is called Qiubang. It just fits today’s happy event. We must keep it well at home and no one can take it away!”

Old men also know this truth, but they still feel happy and itchy.

 There is no scholar who doesn’t like flowers, especially orchids, which are highly praised by everyone.

Although this pot of orchid is not a very good variety, it is well grown.

 Generally, Qiubang has two or three flower stems and three or four buds.

But the pot has doubled in size and is growing lush and lively, which is really rare.

The old men could not impress Mr. Liu, so they turned to the Li family. An old man asked, "Uncle Li, do you still have such good flowers at home? Do you want to part with them?"

Li Laoer was hugging his little niece and feeding her water. When he heard this, he said: "To be honest, old man, our family bought two pots of this orchid. One of them was brought here to congratulate Brother Liu, and the other one was brought here to congratulate Brother Liu. The basin also has other uses.”

 Before he finished speaking, the old men became anxious.

Another old man with a white beard made an urgent offer, "Oh, don't use it for anything else, just transfer it to us! The money is whatever you want, or it can be a unique ancient painting, it's all easy to negotiate!"

Li Laoer and Li Zhensheng couldn't say anything, but Jiayin took a piece of snack and gnawed on it, waving his legs and said crisply: "I won't change it, I won't change it! Another pot of flowers will be sent to the eldest brother. The eldest brother's husband is good to the eldest brother. , teach the eldest brother to write, and the eldest brother wants to send flowers to the husband. "

The old men were confused when they heard it, so Li Laoer explained: "Quinzi has been writing with his left hand because of an injury to his right hand. A few days ago, he introduced me to Mr. Tang Yuantang, and he taught me how to practice calligraphy."

"Our family really has nothing to repay. I heard that Mr. Tang is crazy about orchids, so we found these two orchids. One is sent here, and the other will be sent to Luo'an tomorrow."

“Oh, in that case, I have been favored by Mr. Tang.” Liu Zhiheng smiled and was not angry at all. Instead, he said: “I will hold the orchids another day, and I will go to see Mr. Tang and make friends with flowers.”

"Go away!" Mr. Liu scolded his son with a smile, "I'm going to go, too. You're a straw bag without two kilograms of ink in your belly. Just farm the land well and don't live up to the emperor's grace. Making friends with flowers is such an elegant thing. How can you still do it? I have to go!”

Liu Zhiheng was disliked by his father and did not dare to say anything. He could only smile and touch his nose.

 Everyone also laughed and couldn't help but envy the Liu family and his son for being so close.

At this moment, two little heads suddenly appeared at the door. It turned out to be Liu Zhiheng’s two sons, Zhimin and Xiujie.

Mr. Liu called them in. The two boys obediently bowed to everyone. Zhi Min said, "Grandpa, we heard that sister Fu Niu'er is here and we want to take her to play for a while."

The old man was happy that his grandson was getting closer to the Li family, so he said: "Go, Fu Niu'er is young, and the family is happy that some of them have gone to Luo'an to study. They can't come over. You should take more care of Fu Niu'er."

“I know, Grandpa.” Zhi Min and Xiu Jie saluted together and replied in unison.

Then they held Jiayin’s hand and went out. The three children happily discussed how to play with it. You could still hear them talking and laughing in the distance.

Mr. Liu said: "After the Chinese New Year, I will also send Zhimin and Xiujie to Luo'an. My family, the An family, is happy for them to study together."

When the other old men heard this, the old man with a white beard who had been the most aggressive in grabbing flowers asked, "Are all the children in the uncle's house studying in Luo'an?"

Li Zhensheng smiled and replied: "Yes, there are a total of seven boys in our family, and now five of them are in Luo'an. The teaching at Luo'an Academy is rigorous, but the only goal is not to take scientific examinations.

“Teaching children talents, etiquette, and how to behave in society is something our family likes very much, so when the children reach an age, they are all sent away.”

 Seven boys!

Several old men were secretly stunned and envious.

The sons in their family all have wives and concubines, but the population is not prosperous, let alone harmonious and friendly.

Many times the intrigues are more powerful than those of outsiders. If they could be like the Li family, they wouldn’t have to worry so much in their later years...

Not to mention the old men talking in the study, but only in the backyard. When Mrs. Liu heard that her son had taken Good News to the garden, she smiled and said: "Don't let the children sit here with us, send them to the garden to play." While the weather is nice, you can still enjoy the flowers and scenery. It will get cold in a few days and I won’t be able to go out of the house.”

Almost all the women had children, including boys aged five or six and girls aged seven or eight.

Since they have come to the Liu family, they naturally hope that their children can play well with the two boys of the Liu family and move around more often in the future.

So they pushed the children out one after another.

Mrs. Liu asked the maid to send the children to the garden and take care of them carefully.

  Divide some of the melons and fruits just now and take them with you. The children can also fill their bellies when they are thirsty and hungry.

Children who don’t like to play, they even walked and ran, and soon reached the garden.
