In the living room, the manager of the year took out the gift list and read loudly, "The congratulatory gifts are as follows, a Ruyi handle with three inlays of white jade and gold, a Persian yellow velvet Yunlong carpet, a colorful Panlong General jar, a pair of emerald watermelons, a red coral tree, and gold
One thousand taels, a first-grade officer's flower-feathered headband, a first-grade military attache's uniform, a royal yellow mantle, a court bead, a pair of court boots..."
The entourage waiting outside held or carried gift boxes and walked into the living room in an endless stream. After standing in three rows, they opened the gift boxes respectively. Many exquisite gifts appeared in front of Qiu Yu and others, making them stunned.
Look at the ingenious golden Ruyi, inlaid with fine Hetian white jade and red sapphires, shining brightly. The Yunlong carpet comes from the long-defunct ancient Persian empire, dotted with gold and silver threads, and the dragon is lifelike...
Qirong introduced: "These things all come from the palace. They were brought out by Emperor Puyi when he was kicked out of the palace. They are absolutely genuine. Jin Ruyi is the favorite of our ancestor Emperor Yongzheng. The Yunlong carpet is a tribute from the Persian Empire. The colorful dragons
The general jar is a porcelain from the official kiln during the Kangxi Emperor's period, the emerald watermelon is a tribute from Myanmar during the Empress Dowager Cixi's period, and the yellow mandarin jacket was a gift from the late emperor to my grandfather. They are all old things, and I hope President Qiu will accept them."
Qiu Yu and others were shocked when they heard about the origin of these things. If these things are genuine, they can be called antiques and should be worth over 100 million. Is there any mistake? She gave such a heavy gift when they first met. What on earth did she sell in the gourd?
medicine?
It was so shocking that Qiu Yu stood up and walked closer to take a closer look. He grabbed the golden handle and weighed it. Although he didn't know whether it came from the palace, it was undoubtedly pure gold and very heavy.
Look at the pair of emerald watermelons, fist-sized, crystal clear, and shining with a warm luster. They are definitely the best material from Myanmar, and they are also quite old.
The red coral tree is more than a foot tall. It grows naturally, and its branches are extremely rare. The hanging beads are made of beeswax, and the finest lapis lazuli is used as the partition beads and Buddha head. There are also two full boxes of gold bars, which are also enough.
Red gold, so far, no fakes have been found.
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Qi Rong's mouth, "How is it? President Qiu, are you satisfied?"
Qiu Yu sighed: "From my perspective, they are all good things and should be worth a lot of money. However, there is an old saying that no reward will be given without merit. Please take it back, Gege."
Qi Rong said: "President Qiu, please don't say that. I have no other intentions. I just want to leave it to you as a friend, so please accept it. This is my intention. Besides, this sister also said it just now."
, she accepted it on your behalf."
Liu Piaopiao and Yan Yingrong next to them were dumbfounded. Who would have thought that this girl was not a liar and would actually give such a big gift that ordinary people would not be able to earn in a few lifetimes. What do you mean, could it be that she has fallen in love with Xiao Yu?
Liu Piaopiao lost her composure and said quickly: "This Gege... I'm sorry, I didn't know that the gift you gave was so expensive, so what? Qiu Yu already has a girlfriend and can't marry you, so you put these betrothal gifts
Take it back."
Qi Rong chuckled and said, "It seems that sister has misunderstood. This little girl's talent and appearance are nothing to be desired. How dare she expect to become Mrs. Qiu? Besides, I can see that you two are the lovers of President Qiu. Don't worry.
, I will never take advantage of others, I just come here because of the reputation, and I simply want to become friends with President Qiu."
Qiu Yu said seriously: "Like Gege, I like to make friends all over the world. However, true friends do not judge things based on money. Please be sure to take back these valuables."
Seeing Qiu Yu's resolute attitude, Qi Rong said helplessly: "Okay, I'll listen to you." She rolled her eyes, "Then can President Qiu treat me as a friend?"
After finally persuading the girl, Qiu Yu let out a long sigh and nodded: "Of course."
"Then can I spend the New Year with you? I haven't made any friends yet when I go out. It's very boring." Qi Rong asked hopefully.
"Can."
Qi Rong said happily: "That's great, thank you very much, President Qiu... What about that, Manager Nian, please take them back to the hotel first. By the way, bring the bear paws and stuff, and I'll give them to President Qiu and the two of them."
My sister shows off her skills and makes two delicious dishes." At this point, she was afraid that Qiu Yu would refuse, so she quickly explained: "These are the local specialties of Northeast China. Can you bring them over for food?"
Qiu Yu smiled. "It's okay to eat. I'm also looking forward to eating your Northeast specialties."
A group of followers walked out holding gift boxes, and two more people returned and placed a few packages on the ground. Then Manager Nian led the people to leave the villa and go back to the hotel.
Seeing a group of men from the Qing Dynasty disappearing, Liu Piaopiao said worriedly: "Gege, are you afraid that such a precious treasure will be taken away by them and you won't be able to find them by then?"
Qi Rong smiled and said: "No, they are all loyal to me."
Qiu Yu asked curiously: "Why does the manager have such a weird voice?"
Qi Rong said: "He is an eunuch, so of course he talks like this. He is neither male nor female."
"Eunuch... then he is really a eunuch?" Although Qiu Yu had already guessed that, he was still shocked when he heard the exact answer.
Qi Rong said lightly: "This is normal. There are many eunuchs in our family, and those men are all..."
"ah……"
Qiu Yu and others were surprised. They really didn’t know what to say. Those men were all eunuchs. This is modern society. It’s incredible!
"Did they voluntarily become eunuchs?" Yan Yingrong asked timidly.
"Yes, they are all the sons of subjects who are loyal to the Qing Dynasty. In order to be loyal to my grandfather, they are willing to purify their lives. In this case, it will be more convenient for them to be loyal at home. In fact, it doesn't matter. The palace used to be full of people like this."
Who would have thought that there really is such a community in today's society. They regard themselves as princes and princesses of the Qing Dynasty, and they also have many eunuchs to serve them. Qiu Yu and others are amazed, and at the same time they feel that this princess is very mysterious and intimidating. Good.
Zai Qirong's next performance narrowed the distance between them. She opened the packages and said: "Let me show you some delicious food. Here are bear paws, flying dragons, roe deer meat, and Dongben's pickled cabbage vermicelli. The kitchen
Where, I will cook you some special dishes."
The time was almost up, and when it was time to cook, the four of them went to the kitchen together and worked together to make a sumptuous banquet. Despite Qi Rong’s delicate appearance, she was quite good at cooking and finished four dishes by herself.
, there are crystal bear paws, braised flying dragon, braised roe deer meat, and pork and pickled cabbage vermicelli, which Qiu Yu and others are full of praise for.
