Chapter 338: I have to go give my godmother a blow.
Chapter 338 I have to go and give my godmother a kiss
Jiang Zhi looked at the corners of his lips tightening and his expression was intriguing.
She couldn't help but frowned, raised her fist again, and said in a rough voice: "Young General, you are not afraid of hardship in your humble position."
"Please don't take special care of your humble position for the sake of the princess."
These words spoke to Chen Shaobei's heart.
Shen Ningning's people, no matter what he said, he would give two cents.
"Jiang Zhi, you have misunderstood. I am not sending you to the Huobing Camp as a punishment for doing idle work."
"As you saw just now, the deputy general came in to report that the situation of the war between Chang Liu and our country is not optimistic. The delay in the war is a fatal problem for our country, which has suffered from natural disasters."
"So, sooner or later we have to fight for support, and the Fire Battalion is the one who charges the vanguard during the war. Letting you go there is actually a more severe experience."
Jiang Zhi was stunned, so this is it?
So, she misunderstood Chen Shaobei.
Chen Shaobei's eyes were steady and he asked: "Are you qualified?"
"I will give you three months to figure out how to make gunpowder, but if you can't bear the hardship and are not qualified, please propose it as soon as possible."
Jiang Zhi hurriedly raised her fist: "I will live up to my trust in my humble position!"
After saying that, she turned around and hurried to the Fire Barracks to report.
Chen Shaobei looked at her retreating back, and a smile finally broke out on his thin lips.
To deal with her, we have to take a roundabout way to appease her.
…
The news of her public appearance and showing off a bit of sunshine that day soon spread throughout the capital.
The people seemed to see a glimmer of hope from the abyss of despair.
The emperor often brought his civil and military officials with him to worship God more devoutly.
I long for what Shen Ningning said, that the day when the cold disaster will truly pass will come soon.
The little guy is not idle either.
Since she learned about the use of golden beads, she knew that if she wanted more golden beads to grow in the fairyland, she had to have more jade.
But she doesn’t have that much money now, and all the money she earns now is needed to maintain the normal operation of the shop.
So, after thinking about it, Shen Ningning decided to exchange things for things.
Thanks to the three boxes of jade last time, the spiritual grass in the fairyland grows one after another.
Even if you harvest twice a day, you will not be short.
Shen Ningning wanted to discuss cooperation with Mrs. Meng, the president of the Chamber of Commerce.
She provided the spiritual herb and asked Mrs. Meng to set up a bridge so that jade merchants from various counties in the Cangyun Kingdom could exchange it with her.
On this day, the little guy had dinner with Xie Suzhi.
After half a month of recuperation, Xie Suzhi's health improved a lot.
Shen Ningning made him and Mr. Xie drink Lingquan water every day. Now, the faces of the two brothers looked much rosier than before.
During the dinner, Xie Suzhi asked: "Ning Ning, I heard from Late Spring and others that you have been collecting jade recently?"
Shen Ningning is eating a big meatball.
Hearing this, her long eyelashes blinked, and then she put down her chopsticks obediently and touched her lips with a handkerchief.
The movements are done in one go, and the rules are like that of a lady.
Shen Ningning blinked her big eyes and said, "Yes, godfather, I want to collect some good jade."
Xie Mingan was beside her, drinking porridge from the bowl calmly.
Xie Suzhi smiled and said, "Why didn't you tell your godfather? Godfather has jade here."
Shen Ningning didn’t want the Xie family to know at first because her jade was going to be eaten by the fairyland and would disappear.
And Xie Suzhi and Xie Erye will definitely help her search for it.
The little ones are reluctant to let the things they gave disappear.
So, Shen Ningning Nuonuo refused: "My godfather, those are all good jade, I'm embarrassed to accept them for nothing."
Er Master Xie's eyebrows were sharp and his eyes were bright, and his smile was shining: "Ning Ning, you are out of touch."
“I should give you my elder brother’s things, but I think about it, my elder sister-in-law also seems to have the habit of collecting jade?”
Xie Suzhi smiled gently: "Yes, Xinniang is very good at appreciating jade."
“Those gambling houses that gamble on stones, as long as she touches the jade covered with stone skin, she will know whether it is worth something or not.”
Shen Ningning's watery eyes widened in surprise: "My godmother is so powerful." Xie Ming'an spoke at the right time, pretending to be casual and reminded: "I remember that my mother collected several boxes of beautiful jade, and they were kept in the warehouse to gather dust for so many years. "
Xie Suzhi nodded and said to Shen Ningning: "My godfather, your second uncle, and your two brothers are all rough people and don't know how to appreciate jade."
“Ning Ning will finish his meal in a while. He might as well go and have a look. If he really likes them, it will be a blessing for these jade. Otherwise, it would be a pity for them to sleep in the box all day long.”
Shen Ningning hesitated for a moment: "Then...I'll go take a look later."
Xie Mingan pursed his lips calmly, hiding his smile.
When the little guy accepts his jade, he can naturally ask her again whether he or the elder brother is better!
After dinner, Shen Ningning followed Xie Suzhi and Xie Ming'an to the warehouse of Xie Mansion.
All the precious treasures in the house are treasured here.
Xie Suzhi Each of them has his own private treasury, so the things that belong to them will be stored in the private treasury.
And what is put in the treasury can be used by everyone.
After Xie Suzhi introduced them, he asked the butler Uncle Pang to drag out four large boxes and open them one by one.
Suddenly the light shone brightly and dazzlingly.
“Ning Ning, go take a look, is there anything you like?”
Shen Ningning walked to the box with her little feet, almost unable to walk.
“Wow…” She opened her big dark eyes.
The darkness in his eyes was particularly brightly illuminated by the jade in the box.
Countless beautiful jade, all of which are complete and have not yet been carefully carved.
Shen Ningning stretched out her little hand and held out an imperial green ball the size of a baby's head.
She took a breath.
The book says that wealth is compelling, but when it appears before your eyes, it turns out to be so intuitive.
Xie Mingan stepped forward: "There are several pieces of imperial green here, but there are more expensive ones."
As he spoke, he held out a palm-sized piece of ice-type pink jadeite.
Light pink, icy and translucent, especially sweet in the candlelight.
Shen Ningning could hardly stand looking at her.
Emperor green, icy pink, vermilion jade, purple orchid…
Xie Suzhi saw the little guy's liking and said, "I've given these to you."
Shen Ningning came to her senses and shook her head quickly: "No, no, these are the relics left by my godmother. I can't take them all."
For the first time, the little guy felt that it was a pity to let Fairyland eat so much good jade.
Keeping these is also to leave some thoughts for my godfather.
Xie Suzhi smiled warmly: "When Xin Niang was alive, she once said that jade is a good thing. You can appreciate it when you are rich, and you can exchange it for silver when you are in poverty."
At that time, Shen Siyi had been fantasizing that after Xie Suzhi resigned in old age, she would take these jade stones and go to the countryside with him.
Wouldn’t it be nice for two people to choose a good place with beautiful mountains and clear waters, pick chrysanthemums on the east fence, take a leisurely stroll in the south mountains, and entertain their grandchildren?
It’s a pity that the beauty has turned into a handful of loess.
Xie Suzhi's eyes were softer, hiding deep sadness.
He knelt down, looked at Shen Ningning and said, "If you like it, your godmother will know it and will happily give it all to you."
"Ning Ning, don't be afraid of waste, and don't feel reluctant to part with it. You are already the daughter of our Xie family, and these should be yours."
Xie Mingan heard it from the side and frowned slightly.
These jade pieces were originally left to him by his mother in deep thought.
Now he took it out on his own initiative and asked Xie Suzhi to find an excuse to give it to Shen Ningning.
But why did this sound strange to him?
How could Shen Ningning thank his second brother when all the credit was taken away by his mother?
Shen Ningning hesitated again and again and decided to only accept three imperial greens and one ice soul pink jade.
Each one is as big as her fist.
After collecting the things, she still felt that it was not enough. Shen Ningning's pink and delicate face showed determination.
“Godfather, I have to go and kowtow to my godmother.”
