Chapter 77 A Special Gift
Each of Kong Tu's men held a cage with a dozen rabbits in it.
White, gray, black and white, long-haired, short-haired, all kinds are available.
Basically everything you can find on the market is here.
Yu Shengsheng was stunned. Why did Kong Dezhao give her so many rabbits?
First it was a calligraphy stele, and now it’s a rabbit. His way of giving gifts is really unique.
Kong Tu smiled and said, "Miss Yu, my prince said that if you like rabbits, then you can like them as much as you want. When you return to the palace, there will be a zoo and grassland. You can raise as many as you want."
"Now, just take a look at these for fun."
Yu Shengsheng: “…” I didn’t know what to say for a moment.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. However, my yard is not suitable for raising them. How about..."
"The prince said," Kong Tu said slowly, turning to glance at Su Zhiyi, then at Su Yanshu, "I heard that the Su Mansion has a small flower house, which is like spring all year round, very elegant."
"Why not keep these rabbits in the greenhouse? The temperature is just right, and there are flowers and plants for them to eat. Isn't that killing two birds with one stone?"
Su Zhiyi opened her eyes slightly.
That little flower room is hers!
Although it was Mrs. Su who repaired it for Yu Shengsheng when she was about to return to the Su family, she took it as soon as she asked.
The precious flowers and plants grown there were also the result of Su Dingqin and Su Yanshu's painstaking efforts to collect them. In fact, she had only been there twice at the beginning and had never seen it again since then.
She felt that even though she had asked for it, it was not prepared for her in the first place, so she didn't want it.
I just don’t want Yu Shengsheng to have it.
Just like now, even if she doesn’t need to watch it, Yu Shengsheng can’t get it for free.
"How can this be possible? The greenhouse cost a lot of money to build. Money is another matter. The flowers and plants inside are all rare species, carefully selected by my elder and second brothers..."
Kong Tu patted the cage with a rude and murderous movement. He was tall and strong, like half of a black tower, and gave off a terrifying sense of oppression.
"Although these rabbits are not a rare breed, my prince said they are expensive, so they are expensive."
"The prince's kindness is priceless. Can it be less valuable than flowers and plants?"
"My prince said that all those fancy things are just for pretending to be elegant."
"What is elegance? Elegance means pretending to be a grandson!"
His men laughed.
Su Zhiyi's face turned pale and his fingers were clenched tightly.
The Kong family members are indeed all rude and reckless men. Sooner or later, such people will fall under the sword of the prince.
Isn't it just a small flower house? Let Yu Shengsheng be proud of it!
Whatever you take now, you must return it to me tenfold in the future.
Su Zhiyi raised his face and smiled again: "Okay, as long as my sister likes it, I don't care. Second brother, give it to my sister."
Su Yanshu smiled at her and patted her shoulder.
Yu Shengsheng did not expect such a turn of events. The rabbit went to the greenhouse, which she had never been to before.
But how to raise so many rabbits?
Kong Tu said to Su Huaishan: "General Su's word is law in the mansion, why not arrange for someone to raise rabbits for him?"
Su Huaishan: "..."
"We have to take good care of them. There are thirty-one of them here in total. If one dies," Kongtu paused, "we have to exchange it for a human head."
Su Huaishan's breath was choked.
Su Yanshu took over the conversation: "Guard Kong, rest assured, we will take good care of him and live up to the prince's kindness. I wonder where the prince is now? Is he happy in the hunting ground?"
"It's better not to ask about the prince's whereabouts. I don't know whether he is happy or not. It's up to the prince to decide for himself."
"Lead the way ahead and put the rabbit down so I can report to the prince."
No matter how unhappy Su Huaishan was, he had to endure it. No matter how unwilling Su Yanshu was to laugh, he had to smile. No matter how reluctant Su Zhiyi was, she could not show any sign of it.
Watching them accompany Kong Tu to the greenhouse, Yu Shengsheng once again truly felt that living in the capital was not easy and the struggle for power was not suitable for her.
After Qi Mubai graduates from high school, it would be safer for him to be assigned as an official in a small town and live a stable life.
She didn't want to see these hypocritical people with cunning minds again.
Nanny Zhou took her and Jin Baobao back to the yard. When she saw the purple scratches on Jin Baobao's neck, she felt so distressed.
"Apply some medicine and bear with it."
Jin Baobao's nose felt sour, but he couldn't help grinning, tilting his neck and saying, "It's okay, it's nothing, just a minor injury."
"What minor injury? Listen to your voice being hoarse," Yu Shengsheng blamed with concern, "Su Huaishan and Su Dingqin are both good fighters. Don't go head-on with them, or you will be the only one who suffers."
There was a trace of emotion in Jin Baobao's eyes.
"Oh, I see."
Oh, look at the life now, both the young lady and Nanny Zhou love her, how wonderful.
Yu Shengsheng put the white rabbit in her arms on the table and sighed softly.
Jin Baobao applied the medicine, moved closer to her, and whispered, "Miss, I just sneaked out of the house."
"Where did you go?"
"I'm going to Zhenqiao Tower to find Commander Hao."
Yu Shengsheng was stunned: "You... they didn't do anything to you, did they?"
"No, it's fine," Jin Baobao said in a lower voice, "I asked him why he didn't keep his word. He clearly said that repairing the painting would help the young lady avoid marriage."
Yu Shengsheng grabbed her hand and said, "You are so brave."
"He said that even if it was done, the emperor would not grant the marriage."
Jin Baobao's eyes sparkled: "They say that our horoscopes are incompatible and it will affect our fortunes."
Yu Shengsheng suppressed her excitement: "Really? Did he say this himself?"
"Indeed, he said it himself, and here is this," Jin Baobao took out a note from the brocade bag, "He gave it to me, saying that you will understand it at a glance."
Yu Shengsheng unfolded it and saw only one line of words on it, which was an address.
The address of a cultural and antique shop.
What does this mean?
Yu Shengsheng was puzzled and pondering, when suddenly a light bulb went off in his mind.
…
Su Zhiyi returned to the yard and angrily smashed two teacups.
"Why did Yu Shengsheng come back out of nowhere? What does Shen Zhiyuan do for a living?"
She glanced at Ru Jian sharply: "Did you deliver the letter?"
Ru Jian quickly bowed his head and said, "It was delivered to him, and he was told to destroy it after reading it. He didn't dare to deceive the young lady."
"What's going on?" Su Zhiyi's eyes were filled with disdain. "You are useless indeed. You can't even seize such a good opportunity."
Fortunately, she did not use a commonly used font, so even if the letter had not been destroyed, it could not be traced back to her.
"Go to the Shen family's neighborhood and find out."
"yes."
…
Shen Zhiyuan was restless because the people he sent out had not returned yet.
Ever since the incident at the Su family's lotus viewing banquet that day, he has been depressed and downhearted.
He hated Yu Shengsheng for making him lose face in front of everyone, and he hated her even more for not getting her.
This time, he must get it.
Just as he was anxiously waiting for news, the servant came to report: "Sir, the lady asked you to go to the front hall. She said that there are guests coming and they specially bring you a gift!"
