The Duke's wife naturally knows the goods. Qianjinfang in Beijing has such good materials, but it is not common. Every time a batch comes, the quantity is not large. Almost in the blink of an eye, they are all snatched up by the ladies in Beijing.
Gone.
Now, the ten sets of ready-made clothes and ten pieces of cloth were placed in front of them. The fabrics were complicated and diverse, and the silk was shining. If these were taken out, they would be snatched away in a blink of an eye.
Although the Duke Protector's Mansion has a distinguished family and has accumulated wealth for generations, because it is the home of military commanders, it provides subsidies to the old, weak, sick and disabled soldiers all year round. Therefore, the daily expenses are not very extravagant. It is not that the money cannot be spent, but the family from top to bottom.
, are not too extravagant.
However, there are many palaces of princes and grandsons in Beijing, which are extremely extravagant. Therefore, such rare and rare materials are very popular.
The Duke's wife was silent for a while, then turned to glare at Zhou Gu.
Zhou Gu felt guilty after being stared at, and wanted to leave immediately. He didn't want to be punished by her mother here, but he didn't dare. In addition, he also wanted to know how much Su Rong had spent on these things.
The Duke's wife pointed out one by one from one side, "These nine sets of ready-made clothes, plus the one worn by Brother Gu, make a total of ten sets of ready-made clothes. Among the ready-made clothes, the most expensive material is the gold-plated one on him."
Yun brocade, one piece worth a thousand pieces of gold, three pieces in total. The most valuable thing about such materials is not the extremely expensive price, but the fact that they are not sold at all in ordinary shops and cannot be found. There is only one Qianjinfang in the capital.
, you can get such materials. The material that is slightly worse than Yun Brocade is Shu Brocade, there are three pieces here, the price is about 900 gold, and then there is Su Brocade, there is one piece here, the price is about 700 gold.
, and this is Yun Ling Brocade, there are two pieces here, the price is about 500 gold, the last one is ancient fragrant satin, it is the only one cheap, about 100 gold."
Zhou Gu also wanted to take a breath. The cheapest one cost thousands of taels of silver.
The Duke's wife glanced at Zhou Gu and continued: "Two of these pieces of cloth are made of the same brocade material as Brother Gu's body. One piece of cloth can be used to make two sets of ready-made clothes. The whole piece of cloth is full of brilliance and gorgeousness.
It is extremely rare, and the price is about two thousand gold for a piece of cloth. There are three pieces of Shu brocade here. Although these three pieces are Shu brocade, their patterns and craftsmanship are extremely high-quality. The price is actually comparable to that of Yun brocade, which is almost the same.
It costs two thousand gold. Huh? There is also a fragrant cloud satin here. Although this fragrant cloud satin is not as good as the brocade, its embroidery skills are outstanding. If I read it correctly, this fragrant cloud satin can weave a flying piece.
Eagle fluttering its wings? The one who can weave this flying eagle lifelike is the skillful mother-in-law Lu Qiniang of Nanling. Didn’t our daughter-in-law marry to Nanling? A few years ago, when my father-in-law and mother were celebrating their 60th birthday, my daughter-in-law
When I came back to celebrate my birthday, the gift I gave them was the longevity picture and the hundred blessings picture embroidered by my skillful mother-in-law."
Princess Sheng'an nodded affirmatively, "Yes, you read that right, the embroidery work on this piece of fabric was made by her."
"Such Xiangyun Satin, this one costs about 600 gold, right? Here are two pieces of Xiangyun Satin, with fine texture and gorgeous colors, which also cost 600 gold. There are also the last two pieces, this one is Xiangluo
Qi is also an excellent material, costing about two hundred gold. The last one is Zi Lingluo, which also costs two hundred gold." After the Duke's wife finished speaking, she glared at Zhou Gu again, "You bastard, you can do the math yourself.
, how much gold is this in total?”
Zhou Gu had already calculated, "Eighteen thousand five hundred gold."
The Duke's wife scolded: "Converted into silver, it costs 180,000 taels at least! You asked the little girl to give you 180,000 taels at once. How can you be so embarrassed?"
One hundred and eighty thousand taels is more than an ordinary person can spend in three lifetimes.
Zhou Gu was speechless and just said: "It's not even worth the money for these clothes if you sell me!"
The Duke's wife snorted coldly, "It's good that you know."
The eldest princess of Sheng'an actually smiled, "With the appearance of my grandson, he is still worth the money."
She walked back, sat down, and said to Advisor Zhou: "Please tell me carefully about the situation at that time. Why did you accept such valuable things?"
Zhou Gu naturally did not dare to hide it. When he met Xie Lin and heard Su Rong say that he would take her to choose clothes, he agreed because he wanted to make Xie Lin envious. Later, when he arrived at Jinxiu Pavilion, Su Rong took the initiative.
Quan, he didn't agree, but Su Rong was coquettish and had a tough attitude, so he, he accepted it.
After he finished speaking, the Duke's wife and Princess Sheng'an looked at each other and said nothing for a while.
Zhou Gu's scalp was numb, "I told you, that's it."
The eldest princess of Sheng'an finally spoke, nodded, and told Zhou Xi, "Take all these down, and give them to you, the Fourth Young Master, to keep them safe and keep them carefully to prevent them from getting eaten by insects."
Zhou Xiying responded and quickly rewrapped it and moved it away with the same care as when the Tathagata came.
The eldest princess of Sheng'an looked at Zhou Gu and said: "Since that little girl from the Su family is willing to spend so much money and give you so many clothes, it shows that she is very satisfied with you? Since you accepted it without politeness, that means you are satisfied in your heart.
Is this little girl not an outsider?"
Zhou Gu thought about getting along with Su Rong. She seemed to have never said anything dissatisfying and nodded, "Well, yes?"
"Yes, it means, no, it means no. Why are you still not sure?" The Duke's wife was dissatisfied.
"I don't know. When I left Beijing, I asked her if she wanted to get married as soon as possible. She said there was no rush." After Zhou Gu finished speaking, he added, "What she said at the time was that I was only sixteen and she was fifteen.
.”
The Duke's wife thought to herself that this indeed meant that she was not in a hurry.
Princess Sheng'an nodded, "You are indeed a little young, but there are many people getting married at this age. Did you tell your grandfather? What did he say?"
Zhou Gu simply said what he had said to the old Duke.
The eldest princess of Sheng'an did not expect her grandson to have the idea of traveling, and was stunned. "Well, your grandfather is right. There are only two months until the scientific examination. You should concentrate on the scientific examination! After your scientific examination, I will accompany you."
Your mother will go to Jiangning and discuss your marriage with the Su family in detail. Even if you want to travel, you have to get their permission before leaving, right?"
Zhou Gu nodded, he thought so too.
The eldest princess of Sheng'an was still very happy. Before Zhou Gu left, he was very unhappy with the marriage. He didn't expect that in just one month, he would be in a different situation after coming back. No matter what, the two children looked at each other.
Quite harmonious.
It’s just a little too harmonious!
This is easily 180,000 taels of silver. To be honest, as the eldest princess, she had never been so generous to the old protector. At most, she gave her a piece of clothing made by herself. The material was good, but it was not an inch of gold.
Yun Jin, she was afraid that he, a big old man, would ruin her fine clothes.
That little girl from the Su family was really willing to give something to this brat.
I’m just too willing to give it up!
She hadn't seen anyone, and it wasn't easy to comment. She didn't know what the little girl from the Su family was thinking, and why she would give Zhou Gu such a generous and expensive piece of clothing, and she wasn't afraid of scaring him.
The eldest princess of Sheng'an thought for a while, then put the matter aside for the time being, and asked Advisor Zhou: "Why did that boy Xie Lin also go to Jiangning County?"
Zhou Gudao: "On the day I left Beijing, I met him on the road accompanying Princess Ruian to worship Buddha. He said he was bored in the capital. After Princess Ruian finished worshiping Buddha, she let him go out to relax for a few days, and he ran there.
It’s Jiangning County.”
"He originally planned to go to Jiangning to fight with you?" The Duke's wife thought that this possibility was possible. Jiangning is far away from the capital. They would fight in darkness and no one could control them. They could have a good fight.
"No, I reconciled with him on the day I left Beijing." It is impossible to fight.
"Huh?" The Duke's wife looked at her son with fresh eyes, "How come they were reconciled? After the fight, how could they be reconciled so quickly?
"Oh, mother, it's not a matter of deep hatred, it's just a matter of my brain cramping. I'll apologize to him and he will forgive me." Zhou Gu suddenly felt that Xie Lin seemed to be easy to coax. After he apologized
, although he was still unhappy, he still reconciled with him.
The Duke's wife nodded, thinking that it seemed that Qin Luan's little girl's movie was not very important in the hearts of these two people. His son made his brain cramp by saying this, which shows that he doesn't like it very much, otherwise it would be according to his temperament.
, how can you let go so easily? And Xie Lin, if he really likes Qin Luan, he will definitely become a deadly enemy because he messes up the situation and doesn't get anyone.
However, she didn't want to talk more about Qin Luan, so she didn't mention it.
Princess Sheng'an asked again, "That girl Duanhua went to Jiangning. Nothing happened, right?"
"No." Zhou Gu said with an ugly expression when he mentioned Duan Hua, "What was she doing in Jiangning? She was obviously looking for trouble. After I got the news, I sent someone to intercept her on the way."
The Duke's wife looked at him, "But she didn't come back to Beijing."
