Chapter 149 Gift Preparation
Chapter 149
Wu Mei is very happy today, because the Duchess of Eguo gave her a gift, as the concubine of this dynasty, she has no status at all.
In the Tang Dynasty, concubines could be given away, so the Duchess of Eguo gave him a gift, that is, he recognized his status in the Mansion of Huguo.
If it was someone else's gift, Wu Mei might not be so happy, but the Duchess of Eguo was different.
Duke E and Qin Qiong were originally friends of life and death, and the Duchess of E admitted that it was incomparable to the recognition of other Duchess and Duchess.
"Ask the housekeeper, all the palaces of the country, the date of the child's birth is recorded." Qin Huaidao said to Wu Mei with a smile.
This must be recorded, otherwise, it will be rude if there is one less person to give the gift.
"Eh, I'll ask later." Wu Mei said very happily.
"Well, Jiao'er, it's okay to eat mooncakes, but not too much! In a few days, when my brother is done, I will make moon cakes for you to eat. Qin Huaidao then said to Qin Jiao.
"Well, okay, thank you, brother!" Qin Jiao was even happier when she heard that Qin Huaidao was going to make moon cakes.
She knows that the food made by her eldest brother is delicious!
After Qin Huaidao finished eating, he returned to the study, but in his mind, he thought of his aunt, it was almost the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the family he sent over should also arrive!
"Young Master!" At this time, the butler knocked on the door outside.
"Come in!" Qin Huaidao retracted his thoughts and spoke.
The butler pushed the door open and came in.
"Young master, it's time to purchase Mid-Autumn Festival gifts from various houses, three of them have sent gifts today, and we should also prepare." The housekeeper came over and said to Qin Huaidao.
"Well, other supplies can be purchased first, but don't rush to send them, I will make some moon cakes and send them along with the gifts.
In previous years, we received moon cakes from other people, but the government has never sent them, so we will send them this year. When the time comes, a few days before the festival, arrange for the family to be sent over together. Qin Huaidao nodded and instructed the housekeeper.
"Okay, boy, the little one has arranged for someone to purchase in the past two days, it is to send moon cakes, for so many years, we have never made food in our house, last year's New Year, those small snacks in our house, each house is very popular!" The butler heard it and said happily.
"Well, go ahead, by the way, how is Qin Liangyu now, are you still used to it?" Qin Huaidao sat there and asked the housekeeper.
Qin Liangyu is the second son of the housekeeper and now works in the paper mill.
"Habit, how can you not get used to it? Everyone knows that he went out from our Qin Mansion, and other officials will not embarrass him.
In addition, there are also people from our Qinzhuang on the paper mill, if there is anything, he will say hello, and the people on the village will come over to help, and you are worried about it, young master. The housekeeper said very excitedly when he heard Qin Huaidao ask about his second son.
"Well, by the way, in the future, the children of the Qin Mansion are officials, and they will also send some gifts over during the New Year's holidays, and their gifts will be sent over first, after all, they will be officials in the future, and favors will inevitably come and go.
They don't have any money in their hands now, let's put it in the house first, in the past two days, send two pieces of money and grain, two horses of brocade silk, one piece of cloth, and other materials to each of those children, you can pick what you can use in life and send them over! Let them give gifts to their colleagues before the holidays! Qin Huaidao sat there, thought about it for a while, and said to the housekeeper.
"This, the young master can't help it, how can there be such a rule, they have all entered the court as officials, and they still have to pay for them to give gifts? No, no, young master, I can't do this! As soon as the housekeeper heard Qin Huaidao say this, he immediately waved his hand and said.
"It's okay, just this year and next year, make it clear to them when you send them over, they have just entered the court, and they are short of money, so they can't lose the face of the children of the Qin Mansion." Qin Huaidao smiled and said.
In this era, there are many rules, and the reward for the people below cannot be rewarded without a suitable reason.
"This, young master, there are no such rules." The butler said with great embarrassment.
"Well, the house is not bad at all, you also know the income of the house, two pieces of money are nothing for the house, but for children like Qin Zhiwen and Qin Zhiwu, it is a lot of money.
With this money, they can also invite their colleagues to eat and communicate their emotions, and it is decided, just this year and next year, there will be no more, and in the future, they need to save by themselves. Qin Huaidao looked at the housekeeper and said.
"Eh, young master is benevolent and righteous, the children of Qin Zhuang are blessed, and now the children of other Zhuangzi don't know how much they envy the children of our house!" The housekeeper gratefully bowed to Qin Huaidao and said.
"Well, for so many years, they have also been wronged by the Qin Mansion, and now they have the right to compensate, it's okay!" Qin Huaidao nodded and spoke.
"Thank you, young master, young master, but there are still orders, if there are no orders, the little ones will not disturb the young master's reading." The housekeeper stood up, looked at Qin Huaidao and asked.
"Hmmm! I don't know, the people who go to Shouzhou have not arrived at my aunt's side, and the floods in the south have been continuous during this time, and I don't know if it is safe! Qin Huaidao sat there and said a little worriedly.
Counting the time, it is time to arrive, but the flood in the south, there is also a report of the flood in Shouzhou, and Qin Huaidao knows it.
"Well, the day is almost up." When the housekeeper heard it, he also said with a little worry, he didn't know that there was a flood in Shouzhou.
"Well, it's fine! You go out first. Qin Huaidao smiled at the housekeeper and signaled not to worry.
Soon, the housekeeper was out.
In the afternoon, Qin Huaidao went to the house where the patients lived, and at this moment, they were already much better, and they were all asleep.
They cough every day, they can't sleep well, and now they finally don't cough much, and their bodies are too tired to sleep, so they fall asleep.
"Sleeping?" After Qin Huaidao came in, he saw that they were sleeping, and asked with a smile.
"Well, I've slept for a while, this medicine of yours still has a treatment method, it seems that the old decay should be effective, otherwise, they wouldn't sleep so soundly." Sun Simiao sat there and said with a smile.
"Well, Doctor Sun, every morning and evening, you need to take their pulse once and see if it is better from your doctor's point of view! In addition, you also need to adjust some prescriptions according to their situation. Qin Huaidao stood there, nodded and said.
"Well, the old decay gave them a pulse after noon, and it is indeed getting better, but it can't be said to be cured now, and from the old decay's side, there is still no way." Sun Simiao touched his beard and said.
He is also very concerned about this treatment, so he doesn't need Qin Huaidao to explain these things, he will do it himself.
"Well, there's a miracle doctor of Laosun." Qin Huaidao said with his hands, and then sat down.
Now he didn't want to disturb the patients' sleep, and he finally fell asleep, so it would be fine for them to sleep a little longer.
Qin Huaidao sat there and waited for almost half an hour before they woke up one after another.
Seeing Qin Huaidao, they all struggled to stand up and bowed to Qin Huaidao.
Qin Huaidao hurriedly stopped them, and after being polite, he continued to treat them, and now they are quite cooperative.
They knew that this time it was really to save their lives, and after Qin Huaidao finished injecting them, he explained and went back.
And not long after Qin Huaidao left, Li Shimin and Li Chengqian came over, and they are now also very concerned about the treatment here.
"Your Majesty, is Your Highness here?" Sun Simiao stood up, looked at Li Shimin and said.
"Well, Doctor Sun is hard? What about Pepin, go back? Li Shimin saw Sun Simiao, hurriedly went over, said very politely, and then asked Qin Huaidao.
"Go back, after he has finished his treatment here, there will be nothing left, and the rest, the old man will just keep an eye on it here." Sun Simiao nodded and said calmly.
"Well, by the way, Pepin's treatment, can it work?" Li Shimin is concerned about this, otherwise, he would not have come here.
"So far, it's working, they're not as bad as they used to cough, and today, they're eating some food, and they didn't even drink much soup before.
And judging from the pulse, although it has not been completely cured yet, there are signs of improvement. Sun Simiao introduced Li Shimin.
And those patients are standing up at the moment.
"Lie down, all lie down, it's okay, don't stand up, I know, you're all sick now." Li Shimin said to the patients.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Those patients are very honest.
There was no way, the entire ward was full of guards.
"Well, how do you feel, is it getting better?" Li Shimin walked up to the patients and asked.
"It's much better, I heard that the young man who treated us was Hu Guogong?" One of the middle-aged men asked.
"Well, yes, it's good to get better." Li Shimin heard that they were much better, and his heart was excited.
If they are much better, then there must be hope for their daughter Li Lizhen.
"They coughed a lot less, and before, we weren't here and didn't have to sleep at night, but tonight, we were able to fall asleep." Ding Renxin came over and reported to His Majesty.
He knew that Sun Simiao was unwilling to deal with those high-ranking officials and nobles, let alone the emperor.
"Well, it's hard work, it's good to get better!" Li Shimin still said with a smile.
This is the first time since Li Lizhen's incident that Li Shimin has a smile on his face.
"Father, Pepin is still very careful, and now he is still groping, but, Father, Lizhi has been coughing very badly recently, if it is effective, can Peping also treat Lizhi in advance." Li Chengqian asked in a low voice to Li Shimin.
"Well, do you think Pepin would be so risky?" Li Shimin turned to Li Chengqian and asked.
Li Chengqian heard it, shook his head with a wry smile and said, "No!" ”
