Chapter 207

Gou Qingyun's heart aches when she mentions the baby.

More than a hundred taels of silver!

The most important thing is that these treasures do not belong to her in the end!

If it weren't for the fact that these things could bring some relationship benefits to her family, she would really be unwilling to give them away.

Isn’t one or two enough?

Send a box...

Gou Qingyun:.

I can’t think about it anymore, I can’t think about it anymore, if I continue to think about it, I will die!

Dong Nuan quickly put the box in her arms on the table.

Gou Qingyun looked expectantly at Dong Nuan as she opened the box.

Needless to say, this box is quite beautiful, and there is a simple relief carving on the outside, depicting a bamboo forest.

Bamboo is pure and elegant, whether it is a gift for a man or a woman, this box is suitable.

"Wow, it's so pretty." Gou Qingyun muttered in her heart. She didn't want to appear ignorant, but she was really pretty.

After opening it, Gou Qingyun regretted it.

So, is it too late to prepare other gifts now?

She wants to keep all these!

"It's so beautiful, Nuan Nuan!" If she called her Nuan Nuan before, it was just because of a bit of goodwill, then now Gou Qingyun's "Nuan Nuan" means a bit of intimacy and goodwill.

She really likes winter warmth now!

Gou Qingyun checked the ingenious items one by one. She even wanted to take action on some of them, but she stopped because she thought about giving them gifts.

Woohoo, I’m short of money and want to buy something!

In the end, Gou Qingyun, who could do nothing after just touching it briefly, almost became autistic.

"Nuan Nuan, it's really beautiful." Gou Qingyun tried to divert her attention, otherwise she was afraid that she would not be able to control her hands.

Originally, she didn't like these little things, but now...

Don't ask, just ask because I like it, but I just can't control it.

"It's okay." Dong Nuan just looked at her with a smile, showing tolerance.

After all, the other party is young, still a child, and he is also a big customer of his. Giving away more than one hundred taels of silver at a time is not a bad treatment.

Therefore, it is absolutely right to be more tolerant.

"Nuan Nuan, do you want to sell even one?" Gou Qingyun felt that she definitely couldn't afford to buy a box now, so she still had to save some private money.

But...

You still have money to buy one or two.

"Of course." As long as it's not excessive, winter warmth will naturally come to you.

After all, fifteen taels a piece can make more money than carving those small pieces by yourself, so why not?

When she heard that it was OK, Gou Qingyun became excited again. She opened the box again, and then...

The difficulty in choosing arises.

They all look good, they all like them, and she wants them all.

Wow, it’s too difficult for children. Why do we have to do multiple-choice questions?

Gou Qingyun was not sure for a while which one she should buy.

Considering that Dong Nuan would not be able to return to the village today and fearing that the other party's family would be worried, she specially sent a sturdy boy from her house to make a trip.

"You go and send a message. If you can't come back in time, you can stay in the town for one night and come back tomorrow." Gou Qingyun said briefly to the servant, and then motioned to the maid to pay the other party.

The boy happily went to the backyard to get the horse, and then rode over to report the news.

As for Dongzi Sheng?

She has seen many people with this kind of desire and ambition written in their eyes and faces.

She had seen a lot of them in the capital when she was still young, although she may not remember them.

But it can still be seen anyway.

So, whatever.

Furthermore, Gou Qingyun became even more unhappy after knowing that the other party was the wife's uncle of the young lady in charge of the bookkeeping family.

She didn't like that lady because she was equally annoying and quite scheming.

Therefore, she motioned to the boy to go over and send him off, and she left it alone.

Dong Nuan stayed at the county magistrate's house and lived with Gou Qingyun.

During dinner, Dong Nuan also saw the county magistrate’s wife.

The county magistrate and several young men did not see it.

Probably because she was afraid that the warm winter would not suit a little girl, Gou Qingyun only asked her mother to come over and have dinner with them.

The county magistrate's wife looks very kind, and is gentle in her words and actions.

Dong Nuan always pays attention to etiquette, which makes the smile on the face of the county magistrate's wife get deeper and deeper.

After dinner, the county magistrate's wife found an excuse to leave, leaving only Dong Nuan and Gou Qingyun in the house. The two little girls sat together and started chatting.

Gou Qingyun deliberately avoided some things at first, fearing that a little village girl would not know what to say in the warm winter, and she would suffer from low self-esteem no matter how uncomfortable it was.

But later on, she found that no matter what she said, Dong Nuan could probably pick up a few words, and she wasn't just answering randomly, which made Gou Qingyun very excited.

Originally, she was young and didn't study much. Now she felt that she could let go, and her mood naturally became happy.

The two little girls talked about it in the middle of the night, but the maid came over to urge them to sleep, and Gou Qingyun had to stop.

Dong Nuan changed places to sleep, but she didn't feel uncomfortable.

I slept until dawn and got up early the next day.

It's a nice day today, the sun came out early in the morning, but no matter how warm the winter sun is, it only warms that area, while other places are still cold.

The magistrate's house has a floor covering and a charcoal brazier lit outside the bedroom, so the temperature is always very good.

I don't feel cold even when I wake up early in the winter. It's not like being at home, where everything is cold to the touch.

After a simple wash, Dong Nuan got dressed and sat in the small reception hall, waiting for Gou Qingyun.

The other party got up late and was a little confused when he got up. After all, he slept too late last night.

"Where's Nuan Nuan?" Gou Qingyun started asking about Dong Nuan without opening her eyes.

The maid replied politely: "Miss Dong is outside."

"Yeah." Gou Qingyun responded in a low voice. She didn't feel energetic until she finished combing her hair.

Breakfast is not complicated, and is more refined than in a farmyard. What you eat is white rice porridge, unlike in a farmhouse, where most of the time you have cheaper bean rice or multi-grain porridge.

A few exquisite side dishes, enough for two people.

"Nuan Nuan, try it now. My grandma made this side dish. I like it very much." What Gou Qingyun recommended was a side dish in the middle of the table. It was probably made from some mountain product. Dong Nuan didn't know it yet.

She nodded in agreement, then picked up a chopstick and discovered that it was actually a mushroom.

It must have been dried, soaked, and then mixed separately. A lot of seasoning was added, and the taste was okay.

After taking a sip, Dong Nuan drank a few more mouthfuls of porridge, then nodded and said, "It's indeed delicious."

"Yes, yes, there are also bean buns here. Come on, hurry up, eat more to keep warm." Gou Qingyun was very enthusiastic. In fact, she couldn't eat too much, and more was prepared for winter warmth.

The two girls had enough to eat, so they cleared the table.

Because the county seat is a bit far from Xiaowan Village, if we don’t leave early, we may have to get home after dark.

Therefore, after breakfast, Gou Qingyun had no choice but to stay longer no matter how reluctant she was.

After arranging a carriage, a young man and a familiar maid he often used, Dong Nuan was sent back.
