Chapter 492 - 492 Too Thick a Gift to Accept!
This gift is unbelievably thick.
“Is this a …… thank you gift from the Duke of Qi?” After carefully looking at it for a few moments, Qu Mo Ying was silent for a while before raising his eyes to look squarely at Yu Dong.
“Yes, the slave girl to the gift returned to the past, Miss Qi see this wrench finger face changed, straight said that these days Qi Guojun is looking for this wrench finger, said that this jade wrench finger lost can be a big problem, and then sent people to inform the Duke of Qi, Qi Guojun also specially went to a trip, asked about how the Miss found the jade wrench finger, the slave girl answered, the Duke of Qi let the people to put these several pieces of paper! placed under the jade screen, which was a gift of thanks to Miss, the slave girl thought it was a silver check, but didn’t think it would be a land deed!”
Yu Dong also took a good look at what Qu Mo Ying had in his hands at this time, and was shocked by the Duke of Qi’s large sum of money.
Thank you gifts, he had heard of many, those who sent jewelry, those who sent silver tickets, and those who sent other things, but he had never really heard of them, those who sent stores directly.
What a thank you that must be!
Qu Mo Ying pinched the several land deeds in her hands and gently bit the corner of her lips, “The jade trigger finger was given by the Emperor.”
She was touching the time, it is touching this place mark, and father when the trigger finger in the hand, are the emperor given, the imperial gift, even if there is no special meaning, but also can not be lost.
“No wonder the Duke of Qi is giving Miss such a big thank you gift.” Yu Dong sighed in relief and said.
“You think this thank you gift is appropriate?” Qu Mo Ying said.
Yudong hesitated, but still nodded: “Miss, if this jade trigger finger is so important, it is a big deal for the entire Duke of Qi’s house, Miss helped them find it back, naturally, you have to thank Miss, maybe the Duke of Qi felt that the silver ticket was not enough to show his gratitude, that’s why he …… sent a couple of stores it ……”
Yu Dong before said quite smooth, the more to the later more and more not confident up, to express gratitude in a lot of ways, between the families to express gratitude is the most gold and silver jewelry and so on, and Miss Qi sent the jade screen unchanged, but added a few deeds in it, how do you think there are a few points strange.
Qu Mo Ying’s watery eyes narrowed slightly, her fingers gently pinched above the land deed, pondering.
This matter seemed normal, but under careful consideration, it always felt that it was not normal, not to mention the fact that the Duke of Qi’s way of expressing his gratitude was so generous, just to say that it was unlikely that the Duke of Qi’s jade trigger finger could fall into such a gift box.
The imperial gift, but also seems to be related to the military, how could Qi Guo Gong randomly placed in such an inconspicuous gift box, if said to be accidental is not possible, the value of this jade screen is also general, but also look like the inner courtyard of the things, Qi Guo Gong all right to go over this kind of thing to do what, and actually gave this gift box to the Qi Xiangyu, and even open to see also did not.
This is just a bit too much of an oversight.
The big families, there are rules for doing almost everything, someone checks it, someone sends it out, and when they receive it, they look at it, so that they don’t have to say anything about it when the time comes.
This a pile, a piece of, let a person feel that this is too coincidental, and the gift of the Duke of Qi is too thick, she really did not hear that in order to express gratitude, directly send out the deed to the store, and also a send is three stores, the Duke of Qi’s large sums of money, but also really shocked to the Qu Mo Ying.
This Duke of Qi is strange!
It’s also strange for the Qi Gongfu to do things!
The strangeness of everything at hand, taken together, makes you think there’s something wrong here.
“Miss, could it be the Duke of Qi’s residence for the matter of the Jingyu County Gentleman?” Yu Dong reacted quickly, and with a turn of her mind, she came up with another possibility.
“Do you think this is also the Duke of Qi expressing his apologies?” Qu Mo Ying did not answer, asked in return, she now also felt very confused, some things she had always suspected, but now it was somewhat overturned, this would be suspicious but did not know where to pull the thread from, only felt a mess.
“Slave girl think it is possible, Jingyu County Jun must have counted you before, this thing others don’t know, Qu House and Qi Duke’s House are clear, now Jingyu County Jun has been given marriage to the Crown Prince, is the future Crown Princess, this reputation can’t be even worse, may be afraid of our house to pass out some bad rumors about Jingyu County Jun!”
Raindon guessed.
That sounds like it has some truth to it.
“In the foreground, hasn’t Yu Prefecture already apologized, and the two families have expressed their reconciliation, each making a step forward, so how can they possibly bring it up now?”
On one side, Yu Chun heard this and asked a rare rhetorical question.
Qu Mo Ying nodded, although it was Yu Chun’s subconscious rhetorical question, it was also what Qu Mo Ying had in mind, shouldn’t the Duke of Qi’s residence be like the Liu residence at this time, treating it as if nothing had happened?
Why did you make such a mess? Aren’t you afraid that Liu Jingyu’s reputation will be affected?
The reputation of Liu Jingyu at this time, should be white and flawless right!
“It may be that the Duke of Qi is kind-hearted and feels that the prospect of the Yu County Gentleman is too perfunctory to our mansion!” Yu Dong thought about it and added.
“But ……” Yu Chun still wanted to say something, but for a moment she couldn’t say anything, it did sound possible, she could only look blearily at Qu Mo Ying: “Miss, what do you think? ”
“We can’t accept this land deed! Yu Dong, you go to the treasury and bring over a set of celadon, then put the land deed in it and send it over to Miss Qi, say it’s my return gift, the land deed is too precious, I can’t accept it.” Qu Mo Ying said, in her heart she already had an idea, this land deed looked hot, but she couldn’t check it out for a while, the best method was to return it.
The matter of the land deed is an accidental matter, how to look at it is not like all the people in the Duke of Qi’s residence know about it, then send this land deed back to see how this matter is followed up!
She had a feeling that there should be a follow-up to this matter, and it just so happened that she also wanted to get close to the Duke of Qi’s mansion and look into some things, and with these things, it would save herself from having to make excuses again.
“Miss, what if Miss Qi doesn’t accept it, this is a gift of thanks from the Duke of Qi to you.” Yu Dong was a little worried.
“Let Miss Qi send someone to take you to the Duke of Qi to personally thank the Duke of Qi ……” Qu Mo Ying was silent for a moment and added, “Just say that I don’t dare to accept such a big thank you gift.”
Since this gift is sent by the Duke of Qi, it is possible that Qi Xiangyu indeed can’t do this, and in the end, the Duke of Qi will have to make up his mind.
“Miss, what if the Duke of Qi must send it?” Yu Dong felt that since the Duke of Qi had sent such a thick gift, he was afraid that he wouldn’t take it back so easily.
Qu Mo Ying paused, her watery eyes moved slightly, this is a very possible thing to say, thinking about it this way, it really can’t be returned directly to this Duke of Qi, “If it can’t be returned to the Duke of Qi, then it will be returned to Mrs. Duke of Qi. First please ask Miss Qi to take you to see the Duke of Qi, just say that this great gift, I dare not accept, good intentions received.”
“Miss, if the Duke of Qi doesn’t accept it, can the Duke of Qi’s wife accept it?” Yu Dong asked in disbelief, in his opinion, it was still not the same.
“Try it!” Qu Mo Ying said meaningfully, she had met the Duke of Qi and the Duke of Qi’s wife, and these two people gave her a completely different feeling.
Seeing Qu Mo Ying said sure, Yu Dong heart of apprehension to the end, from the treasury to find Qu Mo Ying said a set of porcelain out, with the land deed to re-head to the Duke of Qi and go.
“This is grandfather s gift of thanks, I …… can t take it back.” Qi Xiangyu looked at the several in deeds in front of her with surprise, and was also surprised by her grandfather’s large sum of money, but did not dare to accept it, this kind of thing, she did not have the right to speak.
“Our miss means, this gift, our miss really can’t accept it, just put it here in Miss Qi’s place, slave girl will go back first.” Yu Dong put the land deed and the gift box on the table and was about to leave.
“Wait!” Qi Xiangyu opened her mouth and called out to her, “I can’t make the decision on this, it’s still up to Grandfather, I’ll have someone take you there and you can talk to Grandfather yourself.”
“Many thanks, Miss Qi.” Yu Dong was overjoyed and said in a loud voice.
Qi Xiangyu called one of the grannies beside her and led Yu Dong towards the study in front.
All the way over, around several turns and mouths, before arriving at the place, the granny let Yu Dong wait outside, she went over to report, not long after Qi Guo Gong summoned Yu Dong over.
After entering the door, Yu Dong first bowed to the Duke of Qi above before taking out the land deed, bowing low and presenting both hands upwards: “Duke of Qi, our young lady does not dare to accept such an expensive gift, saying that the jade trigger finger was originally from your house, and that the previous gift was still Miss Qi’s, and that our young lady was only careful to find out that it was not a big deal, and she did not dare to be the Duke of Qi’s such an expensive gift. ”
“Your lady won’t accept it?” The Duke of Qi put down the pen in his hand and frowned.
“Our young lady says that you don’t get anything for nothing, and besides, it’s such a big gift.” Yudong still bowed her head and rested her hand in front of her, respectfully.
“This matter is a big deal, your miss can’t be counted as unmerited, go back, tell your miss, this is considered as a token of my appreciation, thank you for returning the jade trigger finger to your miss.” Qi Guo Gong attitude and kindly said, finished, also did not wait for Yu Dong to say more, waved his hand.
A boy had already come over and signaled for Yu Dong to step back.
Yu Dong still wanted to say something, but saw Qi Guo Gong re-lowered, picked up the pen and wrote, a serious face, not to be disturbed.
There was no choice but to retreat.
Outside, the granny sent by Qi Xiangyu has already left and gone back to report, how this next, it is not Qi Xiangyu can make the decision.
“You go back, what our Duke of State decides is not to be changed.” The boy smiled and said to Yu Dong, not allowing her to say a word more pointed to the road outside, “If you go out from here, it’s the main road, and if you go out along the main road, it’s the gate.”
“Not ……” Yu Dong still wanted to speak, but was pushed to the door by the boy, and the backyard door closed, actually not allowing him to say more than half a sentence.
Yu Dong helplessly looked at the closed door, looked at the direction pointed by the boy, turned around and went over to the other direction, the party she came all the way over was passing through the hanging flower gate, at the moment, can only follow the lady’s another method, go to find Mrs. Duke of Qi to return the land deed.
There are two grannies guarding the door at the hanging flower gate, seeing Yu Dong come over is not a surprise, just now they saw Miss’s people taking this maid to the outer courtyard.
After giving her a sidelong glance, the two grannies talked to themselves and ignored her.
Yu Dong walked over towards the two of them, “Can you lead the way, our young lady has something to ask to see Madam Qi Guo Gong.”
