After becoming a concubine, she lived a miserable life every day.

Chapter 180 I like the gift my mother gave me

Hongdou felt embarrassed by her master's praise. She felt as if there was a fire burning on her face, burning hot. She knew without looking that her face must be flushed.

Hongdou's reaction made Qiao Rongjin and all the servants present smile kindly.

After finishing the meal, they sat for a while. Qiao Rongjin tried to persuade a few people to stay, thinking that it was late and they could go back tomorrow. However, the old lady still insisted on going back. In this case, Qiao Rongjin could not persuade her to stay, so he personally sent them out.

When only the mother and son were left, the whole yard seemed deserted.

The yard, which had been bustling just a moment ago, now became unusually quiet, as if all the sounds had been taken away.

However, after a while, the mother and son were dazzled by the gifts they received and no longer felt sad.

Qiao Rongjin really didn't expect that what Prince Rui gave her was actually a farm of 800 acres in the suburbs of Beijing. It was quite a big gift.

Qi You was also surprised. Wasn't this manor given to that woman in the previous life? Now it was given to him. However, if it was given, he would accept it. If this manor was sold, it would be worth at least 200,000 or 300,000 taels of silver. After all, this manor was not only in a good location, but also had fertile land and a high yield every year.

Next, I looked at all the gifts and found that they were all valuable.

Qiao Rongjin also took out the birthday gift he had prepared.

A longevity lock, two sets of clothes, and a portrait.

"Mom hopes that you will be safe and healthy, everything will go well, and you will be happy every day. Take a look. Do you like it?"

Qi You looked at the gifts one by one, his eyes moistened, but he still nodded seriously, "I like it. I like the gifts my mother gave me very much."

Especially that painting, the person in the painting has a bright smile on his face, who else could it be but him?

He never knew that his mother was so good at painting, and he didn't even know this way of painting. He liked it very much.

Finally, Qi You handed over all the deeds to the farm and shop he had obtained to his mother, and said, "Mom, you can handle it."

Qiao Rongjin nodded readily. His son was still young, so he had to take care of these things for him.

It seems that I have to take some time to go out and take a look at the specific situation, or let a reliable person do it personally, otherwise I won’t know what’s going on in the village.

But she doesn't have such talent around her now, and she hasn't found anything in her own yard yet.

Outside, after dark, Zhu Yun was about to go to sleep, but when he sensed someone approaching Yunshen Pavilion, he instantly became alert. The next second, he quickly put on his coat, leaped out like a ghost, and quickly stopped the person.

The man in black who was running fast in the dark night felt a terrifying breath and stopped instantly. He looked at the thin maid in front of him with shock. When he looked into the pair of cold and emotionless eyes, he felt a chill down his spine.

The two looked at each other in silence, with fear flashing in their eyes.

"Who are you?" Zhu Yun asked coldly with an expressionless face.

To avoid further misunderstanding, the visitor immediately said, "I am here to give the Fifth Young Master a birthday gift on the orders of His Majesty."

The main reason is that Emperor Jingyuan has been very busy these days, especially today. However, he just remembered that today is Qi You's birthday, so he asked someone to send a birthday gift over. After all, Qi You is his favorite grandson, and how can he, as a grandfather, be absent from his grandson's birthday gift?

Zhu Yun heard this and looked at the long box in the black-clothed man's hand. She believed it. She also knew that her master was still very important in the emperor's heart. It was normal for the emperor to send birthday gifts, but "Give me the things, I will pass them on for you."

Even so, there was no way she would let this person in.

The man in black was silent for two seconds after hearing this, and finally agreed. However, when he handed the item over, he also said, "Then I'm sorry to bother you, young lady. Please deliver this item to the Fifth Young Master in person."

Zhu Yun nodded, and seeing that the person was still not leaving, he frowned slightly and said, "You can leave now."

Hearing this, the man in black did not stop but immediately turned around and left, soon disappearing into the darkness.

Zhu Yun looked down at the thing in his hand, then turned and walked towards his master's room.

"Knock knock knock." Zhu Yun knocked on the door while controlling the strength.

Then, Xiao Yuanzi came to open the door, "Sister Zhuyun, what is this?" Xiao Yuanzi looked at Zhuyun in confusion, but the next second he saw what was in Zhuyun's hand and immediately knew what she meant.

"This was sent by His Majesty. The person asked me to pass it to the master. Please wake up the master." Zhu Yun looked at the people in Yunshen Pavilion with gentleness.

Hearing this, Xiao Yuanzi nodded.

He always slept in the side room of the master's house, which was convenient if anything happened.

Qi You woke up the moment the door opened, so when Xiao Yuanzi came in, he saw him standing up, casually putting on some clothes.

"Master, Sister Zhuyun is looking for you."

"Ah."

Seeing the box in Zhu Yun's hand, Qi You looked at her with confusion.

Zhu Yun explained the whole thing. After Qi You understood it, he took the box and asked them to go and rest.

He lit a candle and prepared to open the box to see what was inside, but when he saw the long box, he had some guesses in his mind.

It should be something like a sword.

Sure enough, when I opened it, I saw a sword lying quietly inside.

One look at the scabbard alone tells you how extraordinary it is. One can imagine how stunning the sword will be when it is unsheathed.

A hint of joy flashed in Qi You's eyes. This thing was exactly what he wanted. He had been practicing martial arts for so long, but he still didn't have a suitable sword. Now, when he was sleepy, he was given a pillow. The Emperor's grandfather had sent it to him.

He drew out the sword. Even though the candlelight was not very bright in the dark night, as soon as the sword was unsheathed, Qi You felt the sharpness of the sword and the cold light. The sword was a little heavy, but that was only for him now. When he grew up, it would be best to use this sword.

He loves it!

He could see that this was a birthday gift carefully selected by his royal grandfather. He thought that he would be able to enter the study room to study soon, and then he would go to visit his grandfather.

After putting his things away carefully, Qi You fell into a deep sleep.

The next day.

Qiao Rongjin rewarded all the servants in the courtyard with some silver money. They all did a very good job on yesterday's birthday, so they deserved the reward.

Especially for Hongdou, Qiao Rongjin directly asked Qinglian to give her a reward of two hundred taels of silver in front of everyone.

The rest of the people received three taels of silver, but three taels of silver was not a small amount, as it was equivalent to their monthly salary for nearly four months.

Everyone in Yunshen Pavilion was very happy. The master was generous and there were not many things to do, so everyone felt a greater sense of belonging.

Qiao Mansion.

"You came back late last night, and I saw you looked very tired, but I didn't ask you. Madam, how did you feel when you visited our daughter yesterday? Are your daughter's accommodation and food all okay?" Qiao Yunshan had a rare day off today, so he started asking early in the morning.

It was not convenient for him to go, so his wife had to go with his daughter-in-law and grandchildren. To be honest, he felt quite regretful.

Hearing this, Qiao's mother became interested.
