Chapter 267 Gift

"The gift from the East Palace has arrived."

When it's almost noon, the main event finally comes. Many housekeepers in the house have already given away their gifts, so you can leave. However, these people did not choose to leave. Instead, they made excuses to stay here. He said he wanted to drink an extra cup of tea.

In fact, none of us still understand, don't we just want to see what kind of gift Li Xiang sent? Everyone knows that Li Xiang is the richest guy in the world. This time your wife celebrates her birthday, let's see how generous you are.

There is also news from Zhidaobao, saying that they have developed a new spice that is better than all the spices on the market. It is also liquid and packed in a container that is more precious than colored glass. Ladies are all competing for beauty, and they don't want their opponents to get this kind of thing. It is said that the first appearance was in Li Xiang's gift, so the housekeepers of each family got orders from their wives when they came, and they must Look what that new spice is.

Women are more competitive than men, especially when the wives of various families have reached that golden age. If they don’t dress themselves up properly, their status may not be maintained. Spending money is a trivial matter. , how to win the heart of the master is a big deal. There was no such thing in the past, and there were only so many precious pollen in Chang'an City. Now that there is something new, who is not curious?

As the chief eunuch of the East Palace, Qian Ping can be regarded as someone who has seen large-scale battles, but he was still a little surprised by the situation at the door of Cheng Yaojin's house today. Everyone who should have come and should not have come, and these people did not come after they arrived. Come on, they should be waiting for us!

"Mr. Qian, please come in!"

The chief steward of Cheng Yaojin's mansion came out to greet him.

"Long time no see, Lao Cai, you are getting younger and younger as you live."

Qian Ping is the chief eunuch of the East Palace. Apart from Wang De, who is beside the emperor, Qian Ping should be the highest-ranked eunuch in the entire Chang'an City. When socializing with others, he usually just says a few words casually. As Li Xiang's tide rises, everything goes up. , if most people want to chat with Qian Ping, they have to see if you have the ability first. If Qian Ping can be so affectionate with Lao Cai, Lao Cai also knows that it is not his face, but the face of their young lady.

There are also fights in Cheng Yaojin's family. As the youngest lady, Cheng Luan is naturally favored by Cheng Yaojin, but the aunts and concubines in the family may not all be peaceful people. They usually make troubles, but since After getting married to Li Xiang, these people suddenly settled down.

Cheng Yaojin is one of the most notorious people in Chang'an City. Most people don't dare to mess with him, but what he does is not too excessive. If you observe it for a long time, you can see that Cheng Yaojin is actually very measured in what he does. , and won't cause much harm.

But as the representative of the new generation of hob meat, Li Xiang's way of doing things is different from Cheng Yaojin's, because Li Xiang does things vigorously and resolutely, regardless of whether it is the Cui family, the most powerful family in the world, or the former prince of Tuyuhun, almost They have all suffered losses at the hands of Li Xiang. As for someone like Li Yuanchang, they are not ranked at all.

There are so many people in the Cheng family, and no one is open-minded. If we offend the young lady at this juncture, then we will never want to live a good life in the future.

Of course, they had to take a closer look today to see what gifts were sent and whether this brother-in-law cared so much about the future queen. If he didn't care so much, they wouldn't have the need to keep an eye on this young lady.

"Sixty-six pairs of gold ingots."

According to the rules, the gift list must be shouted out in the inner courtyard. When the first gift was shouted out, many housekeepers in the courtyard were surprised. Today's gold ingots weigh five taels.

According to the ratio of one tael of gold to sixteen taels of silver, this is more than 10,000 taels of silver, which is more than 10,000 taels of money.

"After all, it's our great grandson, regardless of whether it's a treasure or the world of heaven and earth, it's a place where money is made every day. With this first gift, he surpasses the most powerful in Chang'an City."

"Who says it's not the case? When the Cui family got married, they only had thirty-two pairs of gold ingots. Now they are much better than the Cui family."

"That's a wedding you're talking about. Our great grandson is just giving this to his wife and his first birthday. It's far from a wedding."

The people around them are all stewards of the major families in Chang'an City, and they also have fresh memories of some things in Chang'an City. But if we talk about who is the most generous, Li Xiang will definitely be ranked first, even if he is the best in the world. The Cui family can't keep up with Li Xiang's.

"Fifty pieces of silk and satin, two for the farm, five pairs of Ruyi jade, two sets of the Four Treasures of the Study..."

The gifts from behind also came in one after another, carrying sixty-four loads, which was almost equivalent to a big family making a decision.

But everyone present knew that today was just a birthday celebration, and no one from the Ministry of Rites or the Ministry of Internal Affairs showed up, which meant that it had nothing to do with the engagement.

"You old bastard, you are really rich. Your daughter's birthday will be richer than the national treasury!"

It happened that Qin Qiong came to see Cheng Yaojin. Cheng Yaojin's health was much better than before. Fortunately, nothing serious happened this time. If something really happened, Li Xiang would really feel sorry. After all, Cheng Yaojin was not young, so in order to save the two of them, he actually hit a pillar in the Jinluan Palace.

"Go, go! What's the point? I married my daughter to him, so it's not right for him to give me some gifts. From now on, I will be his old man. From now on, I won't have to pay any bills when I go to heaven or earth."

Cheng Yaojin said angrily, but his words made others admire him very much. The people present were all old brothers in the army. They all regretted not marrying their daughters to Li Xiang. Of course, many of their daughters were older. Inappropriate, this is also a major condition that prevents marriage. Who allows Cheng Yaojin to have a daughter of the right age?

While a few people were chatting, there was a burst of exclamation from outside. It turned out that Li Xiang's gift was the finale. A mirror could already cover many other things. Everyone knew that the actual price of this thing was hundreds of thousands. Money or more.

Although there are more in circulation on the market, the quantity is still in extreme shortage, so the price is also rising steadily. I originally thought that it would be normal to give one as a gift when you get married, but now I have given it to you. , what do you give when you get married?
