Chapter 1183 return gift
After drinking a glass, she put down the glass, rinsed her mouth with water, then picked up another glass of wine. After drinking two sips, she said happily: "It smells like tea."
Ouyang Ming was shocked. She smelled the aroma of tea in the wine. This was the first time she had encountered it in her sixteen years of life. Although the wine had the aroma of tea, it had a strong stamina. In just a few breaths, the alcohol was strong.
Wow... This Miss Gu Er is really surprising, she can actually prepare such a drink.
It was only after she came here that she heard from her grandfather that by mixing several kinds of drinks together, she could make drinks with new flavors.
Ouyang Ming likes to drink the wine that Gu Jinli sent. This wine is different from other wines in Dachu. It is extremely interesting and delicious. However, she is naturally restrained and puts down the wine after only one glass.
However, there was one thing she couldn't figure out. Didn't the Gu family give the sisters a meeting gift as early as the third day they came to town? Why did they give it again now? Or was it a thank-you gift?
Could it be...
"Who is the Gu family member who came to see grandpa today? But is it Brother Cheng's brother?" Ouyang Ming asked. She was here to meet Brother Cheng. The little guy is very good-looking and looks very similar to Gu Jinan whom she saved on the road.
Like, the only difference is that the younger one is more clever and the older one is more calm.
The maid who delivered the wine replied: "It's Brother Cheng's brother, the head of Jianghuai Jinke's court."
Sure enough, it was him. It seemed that he had guessed his identity and told his sisters about her rescue of him. Only then did the Gu sisters send another thank you gift.
"Bring the wine to grandpa." Ouyang Ming said, and said to another maid, Shancong: "Go to the house to get a piece of Jingyun satin, and then a broken stone bow, and send them to the study in the front yard. This
This is a return gift for the two girls of the Gu family."
The things sent by the Gu family, whether they were drinks or fans, were of good quality. Naturally, she had to return the gift, otherwise it would be rude.
After hearing this, Aunt Han was a little surprised: "Third Miss, that broken stone bow is your beloved thing, do you really want to give it away?"
Ouyang Ming looked at the two bottles of wine and said with a smile: "Miss Gu Er surprised me by giving me the new wine she prepared, so I naturally wanted to reciprocate the gift. I heard that she is a boxer, so I guess she is not an ordinary girl.
It would be perfect for me to give her a broken stone bow."
After hearing this, Aunt Han felt a little sorry for Po Shi Gong, but she no longer stopped her. She nodded towards Shan Cong and let her go.
Shancong was in charge of Ouyang Ming's internal affairs and had the key to Ouyang Ming's private treasury in his hand. When he came back after leaving for more than two quarters of an hour, he had already brought the Jingyun Satin and Broken Stone Gong and greeted the two
After the maid delivering the wine shouted, the group of people went to the study room in the front yard.
Before leaving, Ouyang Ming told Shan Cong: "Let grandpa help me tell Gu Xiucai that saving them is just an injustice on the road. He doesn't need to take it to heart, and there is no need to send any more gifts of thanks."
Sending it back and forth is troublesome.
"Yes." Shan Cong responded and left with the maids.
When Mr. Ouyang heard that his third granddaughter had given the broken stone bow to Gu Jinli, he was stunned and then laughed. Ming Yatou had fallen in love with the second girl of the Gu family and actually gave her the broken stone bow.
This broken stone bow was a weapon that had been on the battlefield and drank blood. He got it by chance. Seeing that Ming Yatou liked riding and shooting, he gave the broken stone bow to her. He didn't expect that she would use the broken stone bow.
Give away the stone bow.
Is this to learn how to give swords to heroes?
But this broken stone bow is really suitable for the second daughter of the Gu family.
Gu Jinan was very happy when he saw the return gifts from Ouyang Ming. These two return gifts were much more valuable than those from his family. What made him even more happy was that Shan followed what he said next.
Shancong conveyed Ouyang Ming's words to Mr. Ouyang.
Gu Jinan was very happy when she heard it. She was really smart and guessed that he would guess her identity.
But asking his family not to give gifts in the future made him a little uncomfortable. He also wanted to give her many, many things.
"Brother An, did you hear that? There is no need to give gifts in the future. My family doesn't pay attention to such things." Mr. Ouyang drank the two bottles of new flavored wine, squinted his eyes and sighed comfortably: "It is indeed a good wine.
There’s also the fragrance of tea.”
The second girl of the Gu family is even more amazing, being able to make wine with such a variety of flavors.
Seeing that Mr. Ouyang liked it, Gu Jinan smiled and said, "Student, I will bring you a few bottles another day."
Then he emphasized: "It's not a thank you gift, it's just a little thing that we are giving to you as a filial piety from the younger generation. It doesn't deserve anything."
Mr. Ouyang did not refuse and said with a smile: "Okay, I won't be polite to you, but don't give me any more ham. It takes too long to make and it takes three years to be delicious."
And bartending can be made by gathering all the ingredients and then mixing them.
"Yes, student, please listen to me." Gu Jinan said, and continued to talk to Mr. Ouyang about what happened in Linhe Mansion.
Mr. Ouyang said: "The Tong family deserves it... In fact, there are many families in Dachu who have private mines, but if he dares to make machetes for sale, it is a serious crime of genocide. No one can save the Tong family."
but……
It was such a coincidence that this incident broke out. The Tong family has been running private mines for so many years. Why didn't something happen before, but it happened when Tong San got entangled with Gu Jinan?
Mr. Ouyang had to think more about it. Could it be that Gu Jinan's handiwork was involved?
But now that there were many people in the study room, Mr. Ouyang did not ask his doubts and kept it quiet. He only talked about the gang of gangsters who robbed Gu Jinan and the others: "It is true that they came from Zhongzhou. Since the drought in the northwest, many victims have arrived.
When they entered Zhongzhou, many people fell into the trap of bandits. Several years later, they still have not been wiped out."
Mr. Ouyang sighed. Da Chu has been in chaos since the Wei Guogong line was destroyed five years ago. The emperor only wanted to eradicate the important ministers who held heavy troops, but he forgot that Da Chu was not completely stable yet.
, these important ministers who have soldiers cannot be touched. Once they are touched, they will be punished by God.
Many people said that the severe drought in the northwest was a divine punishment sent by God to the emperor.
Gu Dexing heard this and said: "There are no more natural disasters in the northwest. In two years' time, the bandits formed by the victims will be wiped out by the imperial army. Sir, there is no need to worry."
After hearing this, Mr. Ouyang laughed: "You think so beautifully."
The problem in the northwest is never a natural disaster, but a military disaster. If you want the northwest to be completely stabilized and restored to what it was five years ago, you must have another Duke of Wei. Only by suppressing the armies and Rong people in the northwest can the northwest be truly stable.
Come down.
Once the northwest is stabilized, the imperial court can free up its hands to suppress bandits. Otherwise, the banditry troubles in various places will not be eliminated, and the number of bandits will only increase.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. This is a matter of being a soldier and has nothing to do with us." Mr. Ouyang didn't want to talk about the northwest affairs anymore. The more he talked about it, the more he became more and more panicked, so he talked about the running water mat they set up: "Ting Wang
Brother said, the three of you want to set it up together for a day and eat hard food from the farm?"
