Chapter 1005: Reciprocity 6
Feng Qingxue had no idea about the conversation between her husband and Zheng Jinrui outside. She was looking at Chen Xuenniang's new home.
Very clean and tidy.
Chen Xueniang herself was a woman who lived a refined life. She did not neglect herself in any way because of material scarcity. "If it weren't for the storm outside, I would have put a few vases of flowers in the house long ago. That would have been beautiful."
"There will be such a day. I also like to put a few vases in the house, filled with fresh flowers, and feel that the whole house is full of fresh air." Feng Qingxue and Chen Xuenniang have a lot in common. "The only time I put flowers in the house in these years was when Xi Bao invited Bernard, the French ambassador to China, to visit our home. We respected French table manners in everything."
Speaking of Bernard, Feng Qingxue wondered whether she should visit him.
However, I don’t know whether he is still in the capital.
Chen Xueniang poured her some water. Seeing Feng Qingxue staring at the tea bowl, she smiled and said, "I bought it at the flea market. I love visiting flea markets since I came to the capital. I've found a lot of good things there. I've learned a little about antique appreciation before. This tea bowl is probably from the official kiln during the Yongzheng period. Fortunately, it's from the Yongzheng period. The color is relatively light and simple, so it doesn't attract attention when used. If it was from the Qianlong period, it would be so fancy that the inspector would smash it and accuse me of living a certain capitalist life."
"Qianlong's aesthetics are indeed too colorful and gaudy, which makes me dizzy. The porcelain vases during the Yongzheng period can outline a natural picture with just a few strokes, while the patterns on the vases during the Qianlong period are so dense that there is no white space at all."

Feng Qingxue laughed loudly, her laughter was clear and pleasant.
"Am I right? That's it. Yongzheng, such a diligent emperor who connected the past and the future, actually gave birth to a prodigal son. The prodigal son's taste is so different that he has been ridiculed by scholars in the past." Chen Xuenniang felt more and more that Feng Qingxue was her confidant. "But the old man should like things from the Qianlong period, colorful and festive!"
We are close friends and we share the same views.
After laughing enough, she whispered, "Those things of yours..."
Speaking of the vastly different aesthetic views between Yongzheng and Qianlong, father and son, Feng Qingxue was shocked.
Chen Xueniang interrupted her, "I brought some gold bars and silver dollars when I came here. Now I have a salary again, so I don't have to worry about my life. You can keep those things for me first. You can give them to me whenever I need them."
"Let me keep it for you. I can't bring it to the army, and I'm worried about leaving it in my hometown, so I brought it with me when I came to the capital this time."
Feng Qingxue could not reveal the secret of the space, so she could only vaguely say that it was left in her hometown. Even if Chen Xuenniang heard it, she would probably think that it was buried somewhere. In any case, it would not be made public.
Chen Xuenniang also buried the things deep underground in the corner of the bedroom, digging three feet and three feet deep.
After hearing what Feng Qingxue said, Chen Xuenniang thought for a moment, "Since you've brought it all, then give it to me. It's really not a good idea for you to take it to the army and hide it at home. I asked Comrade Cuilan to entrust it to you because it was inconvenient to bring it back at the beginning. Give it to me and I'll bury it underground. It can't be placed in a box or cabinet. I don't know when someone will come to check it."
Feng Qingxue immediately handed her the bag she had taken down after coming in, "I accepted the jewelry you gave to Fubao without hesitation, and will use it as her dowry in the future. The other things are all here, please count them."
