"Then according to your Majesty's opinion, how should this bookstore be named?" He Yanxiu asked.
Qin Yishu thought for a moment and said, "It is said that Confucius loved to read the Book of Changes for thousands of years. Because he read it so often, the rope that strung the scroll broke several times, so there is a saying that the rope of the scroll broke three times."
"Although the three best examples of Wei Bian are mostly used to describe people who are diligent and love to study, I think it is also because the books are excellent and the content is very attractive that people like to read them."
"It just so happens that you want to open a bookstore, and you sell books. The books must be good, and people should read them frequently. So I think that this bookstore should be named Sanjue Bookstore, and the meaning of the book's content is so amazing that people will applaud it."
"Your Majesty is right."
After learning the name of the bookstore, He Yanxiu did not hesitate to praise him, "Your Majesty is very knowledgeable, I am ashamed to be inferior to you. The name of Sanjue Bookstore is very good, I will definitely run the bookstore well and live up to your trust."
Be sure to make good money!
Qin Yishu was very happy to think that he would have extra income in the future, so he just smiled and nodded.
"The emperor just promised to reward me with some silver and gold. I wonder what the emperor wants to reward me with?"
He Yanxiu said, "In addition to the gardenias, can I also have some crape myrtles? It would be best if you could also give me some lilies."
One tenth of the money has already been promised, so we must get some back from other places! Qin Yishu, "..."
Please disappear from my sight quickly and smoothly! ...
The gardenias and crape myrtles were delivered to the He family two days later.
Both of these flowers were carefully cultivated by the highly skilled gardeners in the palace. The branches are lush, and the gardenias are in bud, emitting a faint fragrance.
The branches of the crape myrtle are already full of flowers, both purple and pink. The small flowers are crowded on the branches, like small clouds, contrasting with the green leaves, which is very beautiful.
Su Yujin was very happy when she saw it. "It is said that flowers do not bloom for a hundred days, but this crape myrtle can bloom for a full hundred days, and it is not afraid of the scorching heat of midsummer. It is very unique. Planting it in this yard will make me feel comfortable when I look at it in summer."
Just like it!
He Yanxiu felt a great sense of accomplishment and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, Madam is right."
After saying that, he took off his purse, fished out a few silver bills from it, and handed them to Su Yujin, "I completed a task recently, and the emperor rewarded me with a lot of silver. I took it and exchanged it for silver bills, which is convenient to carry."
Also convenient for gifting!
"Thank you, Second Master." Su Yujin took it, opened it and looked at it. Seeing that the total amount was five hundred taels, she folded it up again and put it away happily.
Although she is not short of money now, this is the kind of person who never complains about having too much money!
Especially since it was the money given by the Second Master! Seeing Su Yujin's face full of smiles and her eyes filled with stars, He Yanxiu couldn't help but raise his chin.
Raising a wife is indeed the happiest thing in the world! ——June , midsummer, hot weather.
Su Yujin's daily life still continued at the He family, receiving all kinds of feeding from Madam He and Mrs. Lu. When she had free time, she would inspect her own properties.
Su Yujin often went to the Su family because she was worried that her father and elder brother had become increasingly busy since their promotions, and she was concerned that her mother and Ruoruo would be bored staying at home.
But when she came today, Su Yujin found that only her mother, Mrs. Lu, was at home.
"Is Ruoruo going out?" Su Yujin asked.
"The Queen Mother just sent someone to pick her up, saying that she had obtained a lot of calligraphy and paintings, and wanted to invite Ruoruo to appreciate them. Now it's already this hour and no one has delivered the message. I guess she has to stay in the palace for lunch." Mrs. Lu said with a smile.
"The Queen really loves Ruoruo." Su Yujin smiled, "She invites Ruoruo to the palace every few days to talk with her."
"The Queen Mother loves His Royal Highness the Crown Prince so naturally she loves him as well as his family." Mrs. Lu also smiled with her eyes curved.
"Yes." Su Yujin nodded. "Ruoruo is a poor child. No one has loved her since she was little. Now that so many people love her, it must be a happy ending after all the hardships. I just don't know what the emperor and the queen will do..."
When will the decree be issued?
Mrs. Lu understood what Su Yujin was thinking at the moment and lowered her voice, "Your father always said that the emperor's will should not be speculated. It is better not to say more about this matter."
"But speaking of this, your father originally had no interest in being an official. He just saw that your sisters' husbands' families were all good, and he was worried that you and Ruoruo would not have the strength to speak in the future without a foundation. He was also worried about the future of the Su family's property, so he is now more dedicated to being an official."
"Ruoruo and I understand what father and mother are thinking." Su Yujin shook Lu's hand.
Although she is now a princess, she is actually just relying on the emperor's temporary favor and has no foundation at all.
But if my father and elder brother could achieve something, it would be completely different.
The so-called aristocratic families have complex connections, and it takes the support and efforts of several generations to reach the point where they are respected and dare not act rashly.
Especially the Su family, which is a business family with too many industries in its hands. In the eyes of many people, it is a delicious piece of fat meat, and they will take a bite at the right time.
A man is innocent but is guilty of possessing a treasure. The Su family's property and the glory of their daughters all need to be supported.
Su Yujin understood all this, and also knew what her father and brother were planning at the time.
Seeing the light in Su Yujin's eyes dimming, Mrs. Lu quickly changed the subject, "What do you want to eat today?"
When Su Yujin heard her mother mention food, her eyes lit up immediately. "It's been hot these past few days, and I have no appetite for anything. But I miss the spicy and sour shredded chicken that my mother made. If I have fresh lotus stems, I'll make it spicy and sour as well."
"Okay..." Mrs. Lu responded in a long voice, asked Su Yujin to rest for a while, and then went to the kitchen to busy herself.
After a short while, several dishes were served.
In addition to the spicy and sour shredded chicken and spicy and sour lotus root with pork slices that Su Yujin wanted to eat, Lu also made stir-fried green beans and garlic eggplant, and served them with a light and delicious loofah soup.
The dishes were delicious and Su Yujin ate them with relish.
Seeing Su Yujin eating happily, Mrs. Lu's face was full of smiles. She didn't care about eating herself and just put all the dishes into Su Yujin's bowl.
After lunch, Su Yujin talked with Lu for a while and left when the sun was setting.
But Su Yujin did not go back to He Mansion directly, but strolled on the street for a while.
"Where are you going, girl?" Qingkui asked.
Su Yujin lifted the curtain and looked out, muttering to herself, "I remember it was in this area..."
"Miss, what are you looking for?" Qingkui became more and more curious.
But as soon as she finished speaking, Su Yujin suddenly jumped for joy.
