Chapter 214 Discussing Return Gifts
Master Yuanhui said, "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Gu. Money is just a thing outside of my body. You can help me introduce Taohuashan Jun, which is a great help to me."
Master Yuanhui took the banknote from the young monk and handed it to Gu Dajiang himself. Without waiting for him to refuse, he continued, "This money will be more useful in the hands of the donor. Don't refuse it."
In the end, Gu Dajiang could not refuse and had to accept it. He told the intelligent robots, "Come here, carefully pack the ornaments and help Master Yuanhui deliver them to the designated place."
After Master Yuanhui and King Li left with the ornaments, all the things that the Gu family wanted to sell during this trip out of the valley had been sold out.
The Gu family asked the robots to close their stalls, and the family went shopping at other stalls together.
I bought a lot of small things, snacks and toys of this era for Gu Kang, and also brought gifts for the children in the valley.
After shopping in the market, the group returned to the shop, and Gu Fu and Zhibao still worked together to arrange dinner for everyone.
"Now that we have participated in the prayer meeting and all the things have been sold out, do you boys have anything else you want to do? I will give you one day tomorrow and you can return to the valley the day after tomorrow. How about it?" Gu Dajiang said to the boys.
"Second uncle, aren't you going back?" Gu Yi asked.
"You have heard that Master Yuanhui wants to meet your third uncle, and we need to plan these shops we bought. We can't just leave them idle. We may have to stay for a while." Gu Dajiang explained to his nephews.
The boys also knew that Uncle Gu was here to do important things, and their important thing now was to study hard.
After dinner, Gu Dajiang sent the boys to play. He said to his niece, "Fuer, let's call your father and ask him why Master Yuanhui wants to see your father for no reason?"
"I don't know, but we definitely can't guess what the master is thinking. We can ask my father, and if he doesn't want to see us, then we just refuse." Gu Fu said.
"Okay, let's ask." Gu Dajiang said
As they were talking, they dialed Gu Dahai's cell phone, and the call was connected after a while.
"Daughter, do you miss your daddy?" Gu Dahai asked as soon as the call was connected and he saw his daughter's face. There was no one else in his eyes.
"I've thought about it, I've thought about it, Dad. Fu'er will be back in a few days." Gu Fu said to his old father with a sweet smile.
"Okay, come back as soon as you're done with your work. Your grandfather, your mother, your brother, and Daju are all waiting for you to come back."
"Okay, Dad. I have good news for you. Your giant Buddha sculpture was sold for a high price of 10,000 taels."
"What?!" Gu Dahe asked in shock. "Who is so knowledgeable?"
Then Gu Dajiang talked about the auction and Master Yuanhui's identity and requirements. "Third brother, do you want to come out and see me?"
Gu Dahe thought for a moment and said, "Let's just not meet. I don't know that master, so there's no need to meet him. Besides, it's not convenient to go back and forth across the valley. Let's talk about it later if we have the chance."
"Well, anyway, I have said that Taohuashan Jun has been living in seclusion for many years. I think they will understand even if they don't see him." Gu Dajiang said after thinking.
"I just got 10,000 taels from someone all at once. This money is actually too much." Gu Dahai said with a frown.
"Dad, don't think like that. What you made is a one-of-a-kind work of art in the world. It's only right that it's sold at a high price," said Gu Fu.
"However, the master also gave Fu'er a string of agate Buddhist beads. If Daddy feels bad about it, then Fu'er will give some in return."
"Fuer, what do you plan to give to the master as a return gift?" Gu Dajiang asked curiously.
Gu Fu frowned and pondered. This master said that his family had done good deeds when they met for the first time. He must be a man of great virtue.
If I send my spiritual dew over there, wouldn't there be a risk of being exposed?
Thinking of the infinite resource books in his space, he said to Gu Dajiang and Gu Dahe: "Second uncle, father, why don't you give all the Buddhist scriptures and books stored in my space to Master Yuanhui."
"That's good. Books are valuable things and it's just right to use them as a return gift." Gu Dajiang said.
"That's true. Daddy will have to rely on Fuer again this time." Gu Dahai said this with a beaming joy on his face and inside his heart.
"Daddy, life with a daughter to rely on must be a happy one, right?" Gu Fu asked with a smug expression.
"Happy, so happy." Gu Dahe said happily.
After discussing Master Yuanhui's issue, the few of them talked about the next arrangements for a while and then hung up the phone.
Gu Fu returned to the room and went into the space to prepare for tidying up.
On the first day of the Zesheng County Prayer Meeting, it was successfully completed.
The emperor, who was far away in the capital, also received the letter from his grandson and the brocade box that came with it.
After reading the contents of the letter, the old emperor was skeptical, but he still told the chief eunuch: "Pei Ming, tell someone to bring water. I want to take a bath."
"Yes, Your Majesty, I will arrange it right away." Eunuch Pei bowed and withdrew, leaving him to make the arrangements without further ado.
His Majesty the Emperor read the letter again, then he personally opened the brocade box, found an empty box, took out the rice inside, and found the bottle.
I opened the cotton pad and found that the bottle was just as my grandson said. I took it in my hand and looked at it for a while. I couldn't help but admire the superb craftsmanship.
Eunuch Pei came in at this time, bowed and said: "Your Majesty, the bath is ready, please take a bath."
"Okay, Pei Ming, I need to take a good medicine and may get up late tomorrow. If I am not awake during the morning court session, you can tell me to skip court for one day." said the emperor.
Eunuch Pei lowered his head with a worried look on his face. Your Majesty, every move you make is a big deal.
If something happens to His Majesty, how can a eunuch like me bear the consequences? "Your Majesty, although it was sent by the Crown Prince, it is your first time to take it after all. How about calling the imperial physician to examine it before Your Majesty uses it."
"It's okay. Jing'er said that this is just the amount for one time and it shouldn't be wasted. Just order the imperial physician to come and take charge." said the emperor.
"Yes, I will order the imperial physician to be called right away." After saying this, Eunuch Pei stepped back to make arrangements.
The emperor, served by palace servants, walked into the bath.
Eunuch Pei also brought the imperial physician on duty over, "Your Majesty, I am here to see you. Let me check your pulse."
"Okay." His Majesty agreed, "After I take the medicine, my body may expel impurities and I may fall into a coma. Pei Ming, have someone prepare more hot water."
"I obey your order." Eunuch Pei replied.
The imperial physician first felt the emperor's pulse and found that it was the same as before. "Your Majesty's pulse is the same as before, there is no difference. Your Majesty, can't you check the medicine for me?"
Looking at the two worried people, the emperor smiled and said, "No need, just stay with me."
After the emperor finished speaking, he picked up the glass bottle beside the bath and, with a little force, unscrewed the cap.
He looked into the bottle and drank it all in one gulp.
