Chapter 255 Grandma and Grandpa Arrive
"That's good. If someone gives it to you, you should accept it. You have really worked hard, so why not give him some hard work fee?
Then let's get on with it. We don't need to bother two people with one thing. I'll leave it to you. As usual, I'll give you 10% of the commission.
I can use part of the remaining money to build a dam and change the river course. The government can provide the blueprint. Do you think it's okay?"
"That's great, OK!"
“These two bottles of perfume have different scents. You can let your mother keep the one with the scent you like for your own use.
The other bottle is sold. I only have these two bottles of this stuff, no more.
As for these two thermos cups, one large and one small, their heat preservation time is estimated to be different.
Take it home and try it out by filling it with boiling water. Then give one to the government and sell the other.
You can buy any one you want and give it away for free. It’s up to you.
I forgot to mention that it not only keeps warm, but also keeps cold. It will be useful if you put some ice water in it in the summer.
I just don’t know if there are any other safety risks when officials use such cups?”
In fact, the palace has hot water available 24 hours a day, so this thing is not practical for them.
Use it for that unique honor.
"Got it. What are the safety risks you mentioned?"
"For example, if we use it, will it make it easier for bad guys to poison people?"
"Little Black Charcoal, have you read too many stories? How is that possible? That's in the palace, the inspection is very strict."
"That's good, no problem, just follow the plan.
Thermos cups, if you want them later, I’ll give you two after the Queen Mother’s birthday.”
The young prince asked in surprise, "Really? Little Black Charcoal?"
This cup looks like a good thing, I want it too.
"When have you ever told a lie?"
"That's right, that's right, my question is unnecessary, I'll leave now."
The young prince left like a gust of wind again.
Why didn’t I stock up on more weird and strange things in the first place?
Sell more and make a fortune.
The barriers of the times are so poor, how valuable it is!
Now that it has been handed over, let the rest take its course.
Two days later, the people who were sent to pick people up outside the city gate finally brought back my grandparents and their family.
As soon as I received the news, I asked the kitchen to boil some hot water.
The food in the small kitchen has been prepared two days in advance and can be used at any time.
Shen Ruyi, Changle, Yiren, Manju, Nanny and others had already been waiting at the gate.
Without waiting to enter the courtyard, the first to jump off the carriage were the two cousins, the eldest cousin Li Nanchen and the second cousin Li Nanchuan.
One is calm and steady, the other is lively and smart, very handsome, and both are over 1.8 meters tall.
The first thing that struck Shen Ruyi was that his legs were so long. His face was also good-looking, with sharp edges and corners, and he was handsome!
As soon as the two came down, they stared at Shen Ruyi with gentle eyes.
The next person to get off a carriage was the legendary little cousin, Li Nanxi.
She looked very thin and fragile, like a willow swaying in the wind, which completely fits Shen Ruyi's imagination of the image of a girl from the Jiangnan water town.
She is petite and dependent, but her eyes are particularly lively.
Seeing Shen Ruyi looking at her, she smiled shyly. This smile was naive, and she was a lovely girl.
After the carriage came to a complete stop in the front yard, two gray-haired old men, with red eyes, got off the carriage one after another.
She walked towards Shen Ruyi with tears in her eyes, and Shen Ruyi and Changle came to greet her.
The two old people hugged Shen Ruyi and Changle and cried loudly, "My heart, my liver."
Full of sadness and helplessness towards the unfairness of fate.
It really makes those who hear it sad and those who listen to it cry.
Shen Ruyi originally thought it was nothing, but was shocked by the two old people's crying.
My heart was filled with sorrow and I burst into tears for no apparent reason.
Changle saw that everyone was crying, so she started crying too, and ended up hiccuping.
The nanny noticed it first and patted Changle on the back. Seeing this, grandma also burped Changle.
Finally, after being persuaded by my uncle, aunt, Shen Ruyi and others, my grandparents forced themselves to suppress their sadness and stopped crying.
After greeting each other, they were welcomed directly into the small courtyard prepared for them.
The two elderly people are old and sick, and cannot survive.
What's more, the journey was a long one and we had been walking for many days, so we were already exhausted.
What supports the old couple is their worry about their granddaughter.
When I saw the child, I felt relieved and my anger was relieved. I was just tired and wanted to lie down and rest.
The chicken soup is made with spiritual spring water. It should make you feel a lot more relaxed after drinking it.
Only then did Shen Ruyi notice her aunt, a very gentle and traditional woman.
Her skin is as white as snow, her figure is graceful, and she speaks in the soft Wu dialect, which is neither hurried nor slow, and soft and very pleasant to listen to.
Staying next to grandma, looking at Shen Ruyi and her brother with eyes full of kindness.
There is also a bit of unconscious pity, soft and gentle, and a feeling of being cared for.
"Grandma, grandpa, aunt, drink some hot soup first. When your stomach feels better, go take a bath. After you relax, we can talk slowly."
Grandpa looked at his wife and granddaughter and realized they really needed a rest.
"Listen to us and do as she says."
As he spoke, he picked up his chopsticks and started eating.
"Cousin, don't be polite, eat first and treat it like your own home."
"Okay, okay."
After drinking the hot chicken soup, everyone felt alive and full of strength and energy.
We traveled all the way north and west, first by boat and then by horse-drawn carriage.
It's not just the fatigue from the journey, but more of the discomfort from the climate.
The further north you go, the drier the weather becomes. It's so dry that it makes people uncomfortable and we are not used to it.
I was not used to the food, nor was my nose. I did not eat or drink well, and I did not rest well during the journey.
After taking a few bites of the delicious side dishes, I regained my appetite.
It is not advisable to take a shower right after a meal. Instead, take the opportunity to wait and rest.
Shen Ruyi introduced Changle and Yiren, and then arranged for them to take a bath.
The charcoal at home can be used freely, and the house has been burned to be warm as spring.
To prevent the air from being too dry, a basin of clean water is placed in each room to humidify the room.
We waited until everyone finished taking a bath before gathering together again.
Shen Ruyi knew that the news that everyone wanted to know most was definitely the fate of Shen Huai's family and Yang Huizhang's family.
I told you about the verdict and the situation at the exile scene.
The exile of Shen Huai's family has been missed, and Yang Huizhang's execution has not been carried out yet, so there is still a chance to see it.
I already know the result in my heart, but I am always afraid that it is all a dream and I may wake up at any time. I dare not believe it.
Hearing the affirmative answer from Ruyi's mouth again, this uncertain heart finally settled down.
I finally felt that this was true and the other party finally got his comeuppance.
The result was another burst of crying, but this time it was tears of joy.
Shen Ruyi looked at the fatigue that could not be hidden on everyone's faces and directly suggested that everyone go back to their rooms and have a sleep.
After waking up, it’s almost time for lunch.
There is plenty of time to communicate and chat, no need to rush.
