Chapter 69 Really on the road!
Arriving at the palace, Qiao Mai roared in the carriage.
"Go and tell your lady that the goods she wants have arrived, and ask her to come to the door for acceptance."
The guard had already received orders from the young lady, and upon hearing this, Sayazi entered the mansion. It didn't take long before Miss Wang came running over with Wang Zihan.
"Oh, it's really on time."
"If I say I will come, I will definitely come. Besides, I have to spend money to celebrate the New Year."
"Money fan, are you afraid that I will steal your money?"
"That's not true, I'm a small business, and I can't afford to pay."
This time, Qiao Mai didn't need to say anything, Miss Wang got into the car immediately, lifted the quilt, and when she saw the ten boxes of goods inside, she grinned and laughed.
"It really suits my liking, thank you very much, Sister Qiao."
Wang Jiaru handed the prepared silver note to Qiao Mai, "This is 8,700 taels of silver. I'll sell you the clothes for a good price of 10,000 taels."
"Thanks"
"Then I won't give you money for these goods, just treat it as a thank you gift for me?"
"It was originally intended to be a New Year gift for you."
"I've also found out about Juren for you, but he said he wants to visit your house first."
"Come on, as long as he is willing to come and teach my husband and children, I will entertain him with delicious food and drink."
"It's really good!"
In the corner of the courtyard gate, the white-bearded old man listened to the conversation between them and nodded. Qiao Mai collected the bank notes and jumped out of the car, and let the servants from the mansion go to the car to unload the car.
The white-bearded old man asked them to put things on the side of the door, and he checked them one by one.
Not to mention, they are all rare items. If it is summer, you may still be able to buy them, but this is winter. If this is not a rare item, let alone other things.
There is no shortage of gold and silver utensils in the Wang family. Compared with those, this makes him more happy. The old man can't help but pay attention to teaching.
Seeing that all the goods had been unloaded, Qiao Mai waved to Miss Wang.
"See you next year!"
"Wait a minute, I also prepared a New Year gift for you."
As she spoke, she waved at the people behind, and one after another gift boxes were loaded onto the car, almost filling the whole car.
Qiao Mai opened his small mouth, thinking in his heart, does Miss Wang regard herself as a friend? Is this reciprocity?
So he was not hypocritical, and immediately bowed to her.
"Your friend, I, Qiao Mai, thank you."
"You're welcome, go home early, the road is difficult, and it's freezing cold, remember to come to me with good things in the future, and I'll help you deal with them."
"Okay, if you have nothing to do during the Chinese New Year, you can come to my house to play with me."
"must"
A few simple words established the relationship between the two friends.
Originally, she wanted to go shopping in Fucheng to buy some gifts for her family, but this cart of goods made her give up the idea directly.
But she still has to buy some famous snacks, drinks, and food in Fucheng.
There is no need to go into the shop, just shout in the car, and the guy will weigh it and deliver it to the car.
I was thinking about my family, and I didn't eat out, so I rushed home after buying something.
Dongzao hasn’t been out for a walk for a long time. She has gained a lot of weight and is panting after pulling up the car. It seems that I will take him out to digest food when I have more time.
Having won a large sum of money, she was in a good mood, and when she was approaching Tianshui Town, she moved Linger out of the space.
For a while in space, for a while outside, Linger stared at her in shock with wide eyes.
As if to say, what's wrong with me? Are you dreaming?
Drove the carriage to the Embroidery Shop, "Sister Lu, it's already twenty-five today, isn't it closed?"
"Twenty-eight and then shut down, there are still some people who haven't handed in their jobs."
"Come, come to me."
"What's the matter?"
"Good job!"
Shopkeeper Lu put down his work and came to the carriage. Qiao Mai took out four bank notes from his pocket and handed them to her.
"The clothes sold for 10,000 taels, and I gave you 1,000 taels, fifty-five cents, which is four thousand taels.
The shopkeeper Lu tremblingly took the bank note, with a sore nose, he pulled out a bank note from it.
"The clothes belong to you, and I didn't contribute. I really can't give up the fifty-five points. This is the money for the clothes. You have to keep it, or I won't go to your house during the Chinese New Year."
Seeing that she insisted on giving it, Qiao Mai took it, "I can't go to your house during Chinese New Year. We've known each other for such a long time, and I haven't been there yet."
Shopkeeper Lu slapped his head, "Hey, that's right, that's fine. During the Chinese New Year, everyone will come to my house. I will take the children back to my mother's house on the first day of the new year, and the second day."
"Aren't you going back to your in-law's house on the first day of junior high school?"
Shopkeeper Lu sighed, "To tell you the truth, my in-laws are nice, but they live with my brother-in-law's family. It's not convenient for me to go. I just buy the New Year's gift and send someone to send it over. There's no need to go there in person, and they can understand. .”
"Well, don't go if you don't want to go, there's no need to make trouble for yourself, okay, it's cold, I have to go back to warm up quickly,"
Shopkeeper Lu saw that there was still one wrapped in her arms, and immediately scolded her.
"You can really do it. If it is inconvenient to go out to do errands, you can put the child with me and take it out for a while. If you get cold and get sick, what should you do? Go back quickly."
"Hey, then I'm leaving."
Qiao Mai left, shopkeeper Lu wiped his tears, put the bank note in his arms and patted it, then turned and went into the house.
With the thousands of taels of silver from Qiao Mai, plus the money she earned before, she immediately gained confidence.
The kindness was rewarded, and Qiao Mai made her earn nearly 10,000 taels of silver.
This is not a small sum, even if the girl is married to a noble family, she is not afraid of the dowry.
Back home, Yuan Jiaqi hurriedly picked her up and asked her to bring the child into the house, while he and the children helped unload the car.
Moved all the things in the car to her house, Dongzao was taken to the stable to rest, and the car was leaned against the outer wall.
The Yuan family opened the door, and the whole family rushed into Qiao Mai's room.
"Mother, sister, are you cold?"
Asking, he kept looking into the pile of things.
"Hehe, of course it's cold."
She took off Linger's coat and let her sit on the kang to play by herself, and the three Fengyun brothers also climbed up on the kang to play with her.
Qiao Mai cleaned himself up neatly and came to a pile of presents.
"Some of these things were given by Ms. Wang, and some were bought by me from Fucheng. I will find some things from the warehouse to add to them later. I will prepare two gifts, one for the mayor's house and one for Sister Lu's shop. Bar?"
"OK."
Qiao Mai went to the warehouse non-stop, took out several boxes of fruits and vegetables from the space, and moved them into the house.
Compared with the boxes given to Miss Wang, these wooden boxes are obviously a few sizes smaller.
She picked out two jars of wine, four packs of snacks, two sauced ducks, two roast chickens, two boxes of fruits, and four boxes of vegetables.
"These, you send to the mayor's house first."
Yuan Jiaqi's eyes flickered, and he was very surprised to see fresh fruits and vegetables, but he didn't ask any more questions, pushed the trolley, put these on it and left.
Qiao Mai picked out a pack of snacks from the pile and put them on the table for the children to eat.
Chuan'er held a piece of snack and asked her, "Mother, can this be given to my sister?"
"Yes, but only put a little in her mouth, not more,"
Then she picked out the exact same gift and put it aside, and put the rest of the things she bought from Fucheng in the warehouse and locked them up.
It's not to prevent the Yuan family from getting up against them, but at night, no one knows what will happen.
Going back to the house, I took a look at the children, and found that Linger and her brothers were having a good time.
She continued to organize the gifts from Miss Wang. A big box contained clothes and shoes of her family size, all of which were new.
Looking at the style, it is the new style from Fucheng. It seems that this girl put her heart into it.
There are also two exquisite boxes, and when opened, there are two sets of silver ornaments inside, which seem to be for Qiao Mai.
There is also an exquisite dressing box, which is also for Qiao Mai. I thought of giving it to her bedroom last time and saw nothing there.
Qiao Mai smiled, picked up the dressing box, put it on the dressing table, and wiped it clean with a cloth.
Randomly opened a grid inside, it was not empty.
