Mrs. Cao didn't want to pay attention to Mr. Cao, and wanted to give him a look: "It's obviously prepared by Nuannuan for Yaoyao's future husband. Why do you still think of using it? Are you ashamed?"
After hearing this, Mr. Cao snorted: "What's wrong? I've used it, and that kid still dares to be upset? He should be having fun, I was also a prostitute back then."
Mrs. Cao didn't want to speak and silently gave her a slap in the face.
However, Mr. Cao kept pestering him, and he still saw the Chengni Inkstone, but Mr. Cao didn't really use it. After all, it was Dong Nuan's makeup that he had added to Cao Xinyao in advance. It didn't look good if he moved it.
Just touch it once and get used to it.
"By the way, did Nuan Nuan give you all the recipes for making paper?" Mrs. Cao covered her mouth while watching, but soon she thought of another thing.
Dong Nuan's toilet paper production was very successful, and the writing paper I got for Hanjianglou was white, the ink did not smear when writing, and the thickness of the paper was comfortable to the touch.
Because I made a lot of them, I sent some to Mr. Cao.
Of course, the main thing is to deliver toilet paper.
The paper Mrs. Cao used was very comfortable. It was much softer than the ones they used before.
Master Cao was naturally full of praise for this.
However, he focused more on the writing papers.
Toilet paper is hard to say, but writing paper is not.
Mr. Cao has been thinking about this matter since Dong Nuan presented him with the paper-making recipe. At this time, when Mrs. Cao asked, after thinking about it, he said in a deep voice: "Well, this child, Tong
Obviously, although the price of rose water is high, it is only for those noble ladies and ladies to buy some for use. To put it bluntly, this is a niche product. Even if your Majesty is greedy, he will not take it seriously. But the paper is different.
When it comes to scholars all over the world, although the power of our Cao Mansion is not small, it is our duty as a minister to share the worries of the king. If something like this happens to benefit the scholars all over the world, we must not dedicate the prescription to His Majesty and behave well in front of His Majesty.
Show your face?"
The paper used by scholars today is particularly good if it is good, and it is not impossible to use ordinary paper.
But this batch of Dongnuan paper is cheap and most readers can afford it.
The main thing is that the quality is good, which is very important.
Mr. Cao is very sensible. The Rose Water can be used exclusively by the Cao family, but if the papermaking technology remains, let alone what happens to His Majesty, the dignitaries in the capital will most likely cause trouble.
Mrs. Cao obviously understood this, but after all, she still felt a little aggrieved by Dong Nuan: "This child is very sincere. For such a good thing, most of the credit will fall on you, a bad old man."
"Hey, what are you talking about? It's like saying that I can lose to Nuan Nuan, that child is also my daughter now!" Upon hearing this, Mr. Cao was not happy.
Mrs. Cao gave him a look, which was quite different from her usual distant and cold demeanor.
After rolling her eyes, Mrs. Cao thought for a while and asked: "What are you going to do?"
Mr. Cao serves in a local position and cannot return to Beijing at will unless he is summoned or given a duty report.
He handed it over directly to the Cao family brother in the capital, and he didn't know the other party's attitude towards Dong Nuan, his new niece. If they didn't take it seriously, and Dong Nuan's contribution was involved, wouldn't it be completely ignored?
Master Cao naturally knew what Mrs. Cao was worried about. He shook his head helplessly and said: "Who do you think your brother is? He is not like that, but it is better to pass this matter through his hands than through Wan Meiren's hands."
The ladies in the harem blow pillows, but they are more valued by His Majesty than the stiff courtiers who offer them.
When Wan Meiren is favored now, blowing the pillow wind is very useful.
"Then you look at the arrangements. I'm going to open the private treasury to see if there is anything suitable for Nuan Nuan. Also, the subsequent banquets, posts, preparations, etc. must be prepared in advance." Regarding these, Mrs. Cao,
She was not very interested, knowing that Mr. Cao had his own arrangements, so she went about her own business.
Mr. Cao also quickly returned to the study, preparing to arrange this matter early.
At this time, Dong Nuan was already sitting in the same carriage as Cao Xinyao, walking slowly on the way back to Zhuangzi, surrounded by a basin of ice.
"Quick, quick, quick, look, what have Father and the others prepared?" Not long after Cao Xinyao got on the carriage, she eagerly approached Dong Nuan, wanting to see what her parents had prepared for Dong Nuan.
She quietly took a look at the things Dong Nuan had prepared for her.
The color of that step is excellent and the workmanship is exquisite. It is also a popular style in Fucheng this year.
Although Cao Xinyao has a lot of jewelry, she is still very happy when she sees that one.
Of course, what I am more happy about is the square inkstone.
As for something for my fiancé...
Cao Xinyao said, It’s not that I don’t write.
No one is allowed to steal mine, hum!
The thing quietly took a look and then followed Dong Nuan back. At this moment, she was curious about what her home had prepared for Dong Nuan. Her mother only said that the preparations were very complete, and she didn't even know it.
Dong Nuan didn't look carefully. Now that the other party was curious, she took it out generously.
Mrs. Cao prepared a complete set of jewelry, all made of mutton-fat jade of very good quality.
"This is good, this is good. I wanted these earrings before, but my mother refused." When Cao Xinyao saw it, she couldn't help but look envious.
Seeing her like this, Dong Nuan was not stingy and pointed at the box: "How about you take it and wear it?"
Cao Xinyao was actually crazy about it, but after thinking about it, she felt that this was not good, so she shook her head and said, "I might as well not do it, the meaning is different."
Dong Nuan didn't force it. After all, it was the wishes of the Cao family's parents, and she really had to cherish it. If it really appeared on Cao Xinyao's head, it could be understood that the sisters had a good relationship, but in the end it was easy to say or not.
After looking at the gifts prepared by Mrs. Cao, I quickly looked at the gifts prepared by Mr. Cao.
Compared to Mrs. Cao, the gifts prepared by Mr. Cao looked particularly thin and small, as if they were just thin pieces of paper.
Cao Xinyao straightened her face when she saw it: "It can't be a bank note, my father does this kind of thing a lot!"
Although the money was said to be practical, it was a bit perfunctory. Cao Xinyao's face was already very serious. After discovering that it was a banknote, she directly picked up her skirt and got off the carriage, going back to find her father to settle accounts.
Seeing her like this, Dong Nuan couldn't help but laugh: "She looks like a little old lady."
Dong Nuan's words broke through Cao Xinyao's defense. She let out a sigh of relief and sighed secretly: "I am with you every day. I really can't be serious even if I want to."
The two people quickly opened the gift from Master Cao.
"Huh! It's a land deed!" Dong Nuan saw that this thin piece of paper was actually a land deed, and he couldn't help but exclaimed.
After reading it, Cao Xinyao was amazed again and again: "Yes, yes, that nice Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Fucheng is in a great location and is much bigger than the one you have now."
