From a son-in-law to a favorite of the empress

Yingying, Yanyan, Cuicui, Honghong, everywhere is warm and harmonious.

Rain, wind, flowers, grass, year after year.

The girls at the table picked gifts, and they liked this one and that one, and they didn't fight or argue, and they all thought they were beautiful and satisfied.

In fact, they never lacked these jewelry, and what they really cherished was the deep friendship contained in these jewelry.

Love the house and the dog, so they praised it endlessly and were happy from the bottom of their hearts.

After the gifts were picked, everyone was busy eating and drinking, and the atmosphere at the table was very good.

Qu Ling was in a good mood and was generous for once, shouting: "Mingrui, everyone in the mansion will be rewarded with ten taels of silver, hurry up, and give it immediately!"

Their annual salary was less than ten taels, and everyone cheered when they heard the news.

One by one, they came in groups to greet and thank everyone.

Qu Ling waved his hand and said, "Go and do your own things. It's not appropriate for everyone to quarrel here. Anyway, work hard and I will not treat you unfairly."

Zhou Yuan gave a thumbs up and said, "Boss Qu is really generous. It seems that although he has spent a lot of money in the past two years, he has also made a lot of money."

Qu Ling took a sip of wine and his face was a little red. It was obvious that he was in high spirits and a little drunk.

She narrowed her eyes and smiled, "You know nothing, you are a hands-off shopkeeper. I have lost more than two million taels of silver in the past two years, all of which are my mother's money."

"But the good news is that the southern fleet is returning and will return part of the money. In addition, the Shanxi merchants will send me four million taels of silver to participate in the development of Lushun Port."

"In addition, I want to apply for an advance of three million taels from the treasury. I have already gone to the palace to talk to Her Majesty about this. She didn't agree at first, but I shamelessly cried poor and said that the family couldn't make ends meet. Hehe, she had no choice but to agree."

Speaking of this, she took another sip of wine and said, "This family has money coming in and out, and the expenses and income of various major events. Without me, Qu Ling, you would be busy to death."

Zhou Yuan immediately raised his glass and said, "I am very touched! Everyone, let's toast to Boss Qu together! She has worked hard!"

Everyone laughed and raised their glasses to toast Qu Ling.

Qu Ling couldn't help but nod proudly and said with a smile: "Sisters, I'm not saying this for you, I'm saying this for Zhou Yuan, so that he won't always ask me for money."

At this point, she winked at Mo Xiang and said: "Go, bring the things up!"

Mo Xiang smiled, and after a moment, she came with a box.

When the box was opened, two ginsengs as thick as arms were placed inside, white with gold, rich in color, and the appearance was simply beyond words.

"A holiday gift prepared for our master."

"I wish the master can still have sex with ten women at night when he is seventy or eighty years old!"

Qu Ling handed the box to Zhou Yuan with a smile.

Zhou Yuan took it in a daze, muttering: "Preparing a gift for me... I don't need anything... But this is fine!"

Qu Ling said: "This is a good thing. There are only a few in the world. It is said that smelling it can make people's blood boil. You are blessed, master."

Zhou Yuan quickly covered the box and laughed: "You are blessed."

Xue Ningyue carefully took out a Pixiu from her arms and whispered: "Brother Zhou, this is a gift prepared by Ningyue for you. I just hope that you can be safe and sound..."

Zhou Yuan quickly took it and couldn't help saying: "Ningyue baby, you are really thoughtful. In fact, these..."

Xue Ningyue interrupted: "Everyone prepared gifts for you! Don't say you don't need it. We all put in a lot of thought."

For a while, everyone laughed and took out their carefully prepared gifts.

These gifts were almost all unnecessary for Zhou Yuan.

But he couldn't stop laughing, and kept saying: "This is good, this is good, Peixian, yours is good!"

"Xue'er, what is this you gave? "Poems and Lyrics of Yuan Yi Zhenren"? Is there such a thing on the market?"

"Ruan Zhi, this is... you also prepared it? Ah? Math book!"

"Xiaoying, when did you prepare the gift! Haven't you been with me all the time!"

Zhou Yuan was too busy, holding a lot of things, and couldn't help laughing: "Okay, okay, I have everything, I'm satisfied."

Zhao Jianjia said softly: "Ziyuan Qingyuan, help the son-in-law put away the gifts."

"The two girls, and Moxiang, have prepared gifts for you, and will give them to you tonight."

"In addition, there are three more gifts."

She took out three boxes from the cabinet at the back.

The first box contained a jade seal.

The second box shocked Zhou Yuan, a mint-colored bellyband.

The third box contained a huge wolf tooth.

Zhao Jianjia smiled and said, "You don't need us to help you analyze who gave the gifts."

Zhou Yuan hurriedly said: "Quick! Put it away!"

The jade seal is the jade seal of the Qing Dynasty, which was given by Daichan. It shows the political attitude and also means to reassure Zhou Yuan.

The little bellyband... Cai Ni, this girl, wants to seduce me from a distance of thousands of miles. How does she know that I like such things the most?

The wolf tooth, it is undoubtedly given by Xingyao. It is the one hanging around her neck, representing her courage and faith.

For a moment, Zhou Yuan was silent.

Zhao Jianjia said softly: "Husband, although you are with us less and less, you are always fighting on the front line and fighting for your life."

"But we all miss you, think about you, and care about you in our hearts."

"You are tired, you are suffering, and you have paid, we all understand in our hearts."

"We send these gifts because we hope you know our intentions, we hope you are happy, we hope you pay more attention to your own safety, and we are more assured to do your big things."

"We all support you and support everything you do. "

Zhou Yuan didn't say anything, he just picked up the wine and drank it all.

He felt the love and care.

As a man, he certainly wouldn't be so hypocritical, but when the time came, when those love and care wrapped him up, it was hard for him not to be moved.

Strive, work hard, persist, no matter what, it's not difficult.

As long as the person you love understands you, cares about you, and supports you, no matter how difficult the thing is, a man will dare to try and fight for it.

Seeing that Zhou Yuan was speechless, Qu Ling immediately livened up the atmosphere and said: "I propose! Today is a festival! All of us will meet all the requirements of the master! Never refuse!"

She blinked and said: "Only today, master! What do you want to do most!"

Zhou Yuan raised his head, smiled, and said: "The family has a good meal, is happy, and spends this day."

Everyone raised their glasses quickly, and Jianjia smiled and said: "Then congratulations to my husband for successfully and peacefully recovering the Western Regions. We know your achievements, and the history books will also remember them. ”

Drinking a glass, how refreshing!

Qu Ling smiled and said: "I know that the biggest wish of Prince Wei is that we reunite, not to do those messy and erotic things."

"But I, Qu Ling, can't help but find some fun for Prince Wei! The games are all designed! Everyone must participate!"

"Today is a holiday, everyone must not spoil the fun!"

At the end, she didn't know whether she was drunk or emotional, her voice was a little choked.

She said softly: "People who work hard outside have returned home, we must let them feel the warmth of home."

"Happy holidays!"
