As soon as the holiday came, Manbao carried the statue of me out of the palace again, took the leave and brought it back again... This went back and forth ten times, and finally after seven or forty-nine days, Manbao took the box to him.
Mingda.
Even the princess came over specifically to see what birthday gift she had consecrated to Mingda.
Seeing the pink crystal bracelet in the box, the princess's eyes flashed with surprise and she said: "Pink crystals like this are very rare. The condition is very good, but you can actually buy it."
Man Bao smiled slightly and put the bracelet on Mingda. The bracelet was a little loose and hung slightly low, but it hung beautifully.
Mingda raised his wrist to admire it and then smiled and said: "I like it very much. By the way, this dark... jade? It feels cold to the touch. It looks like jade but is not jade."
Man Bao said "Huh" and said, "Does it look like jade to me? It looks like stone to me, almost like obsidian."
Everyone present: ...You don’t even know it. Isn’t this gift from you?
Mingda burst into laughter, nodded and said: "Jade is also a stone, it's more or less the same. It's very beautiful. I like it very much."
Manbao laughed happily.
Changyu looked back and forth, and after a while he sighed, "So this is the gift you spent forty-nine days working on."
Manbao looked at it sideways, "It's very powerful. It can protect Mingda's qi disease from occurring due to external causes."
She invited Mingda: "The Dragon Boat Festival is coming, and the busy farming season in my village is over. My family will release fish in the pond by then. Do you want to come and release the fish to pray for blessings?"
Mingda blinked, "Spring has just passed, and May is when poisons invade. Do you want to go out at this time?"
Man Bao said: "Go out for a walk. You have been bored in the palace for half a year. If you go out and relax, your mood will be better, and your health will only get better."
As soon as Changyu heard that he was going out, he immediately encouraged Mingda, "Yes, I always hear her talking about how good her village is, but we haven't seen it yet, so why not take this opportunity to go and see it."
The princess on the side opened her mouth, but couldn't say anything to persuade her for a while, so she could only shut up silently.
Changyu didn't have the guts to mention such a thing to the emperor and empress, but Mingda did.
And she quickly thought of the reason. She glanced at the excited Man Bao and Chang Yu, and felt very excited, so she nodded.
Man Bao and Chang Yu said "yeah" excitedly and clapped their hands together. They also forced Ming Da and the Crown Princess who wanted to stay out of the incident to clapped their hands as well.
The Crown Princess looked at her slapped palm, shook her head for a while, and decided not to care.
It would be fine if they could convince the emperor, but if they couldn't, she wouldn't be able to help.
After seeing off the Crown Princess, Man Bao found an excuse to pull Ming Da away and whisper.
She also asked Keke to help watch, and asked Mingda to send her maid away before he started biting her ears.
"I have other ways to use this bracelet, let me teach you." Manbao was afraid that she would accidentally press the switch on the back to turn off the device, so he held her hand and let her touch it, and then said: "This
The black dot is the switch. The so-called switch means that it can be turned on or off. You see, when it is turned on, this black stone has a faint red color when facing the sun."
Mingda exclaimed, "I saw it."
Man Bao said: "It disappears when it is closed. Be careful in the future. Don't close it. Leave it open all the time. It can help you isolate the flying dust and some smells."
Mingda raised his eyebrows, looked at Manbao for a while and then asked, "Manbao, where did you get this bracelet?"
Man Bao shook his head and said: "I can't tell you, because you said you wanted to go out and play with us, and I also thought it would be bad for you to be bored in the palace all the time, so I wanted to give it to you so that your body would be weaker.
But it won’t be too influenced by the outside world.”
Mingda clenched the bracelet in his hand and lowered his voice and asked, "Can you bring me another string? I want to give one to my mother. She also has a gas problem."
Manbao thought about it, stretched out his hand and said, "I want money."
Mingda put his hand on hers, smiling like a flower, "No problem, how much do you want?"
Man Bao calculated the points she had spent, hesitated and said, "I won't earn your money, it will cost at least 1,800 taels, and you can't tell the Queen or the Emperor."
Mingda glanced at Manbao meaningfully, and then nodded, "Just say it's my filial piety to my mother. I won't tell them the truth. Well, your father is borrowing it from me? I'll also pay seventy-seventy-forty.
It’s been nine days.”
Man Bao said: "Isn't this good? Next month a grandpa who is a close friend of the Baishan family will celebrate his birthday. This is a birthday gift."
Mingda: "...You actually used someone else's birthday gift in advance."
"There's nothing we can do about it. The most valuable thing is this statue of Lao Tzu."
So Mingda became more and more confused. When they could only get one statue of Lao Tzu, where did they get such a precious bracelet?
As for the effectiveness of Man Bao's theory, Mingda has never doubted it, not only because she believed that Man Bao would not lie, but also because she felt the changes in her whole body as soon as she put on the bracelet.
Her nose has always been sensitive, so she tries to use light and elegant fragrances in the house, or doesn't use them at all.
The Crown Princess also knew that she could not come into contact with fragrant things, but she carried a sachet with her and applied fragrant powder on her body, so Mingda could still smell a lot of it every time.
But just now when Mingda put the bracelet on her and pressed the inside, the pungent smell around her body dissipated a lot, and she could only smell a faint smell.
Mingda touched the bracelet hanging on her wrist. She was always delicate and sensitive, so she hesitated to speak to Manbao. After a while, she still couldn't help asking: "You envy you just because I said something
You can go on a study trip, so you found a way to get me this bracelet?"
Man Bao nodded and said matter-of-factly: "That's right, so don't be lonely anymore. When you get older and your health gets better, you will definitely be able to go out and travel around."
Mingda smiled, took Man Bao's hand and said, "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone else. If it's hard for you to buy another string, then don't buy it. My mother and I can use this string together."
Man Bao smiled and said: "It's not that difficult. It's just that Bai Shan believes in me and you believe in me, but the Queen may not necessarily believe in me."
She could not speak ill of the emperor in front of Ming Da, but Man Bao still whispered, "The world of adults is too complicated. I am not as complicated as them now, so I don't want to get too close to them."
Mingda understood that feeling, "I also have many concerns that I don't like to talk to my father, the emperor, and my empress, and I know them all."
Especially she knew that if her father knew that Man Bao could buy such good things, he might want more.
She had thought it over completely and whispered to Man Bao: "You should be more careful. Earlier we discussed the disadvantages of officials handling business affairs. Please ask your fourth brother to restrain himself. Going too fast may not be a good thing."
