Chapter 109: Gift Return Controversy (3)
The head of the Feng family and the third master Feng went forward to look through the contents of the baskets, which contained two baskets of tea, six pieces of cloth, and some packaged herbs. They were really shocked when they found several wooden boxes on the ground.
The first six boxes were filled with lilies, jasmines, and roses respectively, and the last two boxes contained a wild ginseng that was more than a hundred years old.
"Father, is Xiang girl planning to give away wild ginseng as a white radish?" The head of the Feng family was almost shocked by Mei Xiang's generosity. Which family would give away wild ginseng like this?
"You, don't take advantage of me and act like a good kid." Old Feng pretended to be angry and glared at his son, but he couldn't suppress the smile on his lips.
Master Feng San listened to the conversation between his father and brother and understood what was in the wooden box that his father brought in. The head of the Feng family leaned close to his ear and whispered to him about Meixiang's return gift to the Fourth Family. Master Feng San was also shocked by Meixiang's generosity.
Old Feng picked up the two letters at hand and took a look. He first opened the one from Meixiang. In the letter, Meixiang pointed out in a friendly but unfamiliar tone that these gifts were sent to Feng's eldest and third aunts through cousin Zhen, and detailed the functions of various scented teas.
Then the topic changed to the sixth son of the third house. The letter read: "I heard from cousin Zhen that cousin Jia likes more fun than the second cousin. Liuzhou has beautiful mountains, rivers, and people, and there is no shortage of fun. There are endless mountains in the back mountain, so Fat Tiger and Ah Hu can play with him. There are 7,000 soldiers in the barracks, so he can be taken to patrol the lively places. If he is lucky, he can catch a troublemaker. If he likes herbal medicine, he can learn from Master Wang Taiyi. There is also a dyeing workshop..."
"Look, my second cousin is having so much fun hanging out with Brother Situ in the military camp that he doesn't want to leave. He has even learned to identify some basic herbs. If grandpa, uncle, and aunt are willing, my mother and I would very much welcome cousin Yijia to live in Liuzhou Prefecture for a long time and watch the fun. I guarantee he will be satisfied with the fun. Hahaha..."
"Well, hahaha, good, good! It's a blessing for this second brat to have secretly followed Zhen'er to Liuzhou Prefecture. I hope the second house can understand Xiang girl's favor. Here, take a look, Third Master." After reading the letter from Meixiang, Old Master Feng laughed happily three times and handed it to Third Master Feng.
Mr. Feng Sanye took the letter with both hands in panic. His father had just mentioned the second son of the third generation of the Feng family, so why did he give the letter to him?
He soon understood the reason. His expression was shocked at first, then ecstatic: "Father, is this true? The princess wants that brat Yijia to go to Liuzhou Prefecture?"
"It's clearly stated in the letter. You should go back and discuss it with Jia's mother. If you want to go," Elder Feng glanced at the head of the Feng family and continued, "Pack up quickly and leave within two or three days. I believe you and your wife know better than the second brother and his wife."
"Yes, yes, I'll go back to my room and ask Jia's mother to pack his things." Mr. Feng was so happy that he didn't know what to say. Their third room had always been self-aware and decided to cling to the first room from the beginning. Life was going smoothly in other aspects. But the second room's second boy was a scoundrel, neither good at literature nor martial arts, with high expectations but low skills. For this reason, the couple had spent a lot of time and effort since he was a child, but the effect was not great. Seeing that he was growing up, it became a bigger worry.
Old Feng pointed at the backpacks and wooden boxes on the ground and said to Third Master Feng, "Wait, take these things from your third room back."
"This, this, if mother and the second wife see this, will there be trouble again?" Master Feng San said helplessly.
Elder Feng glared and said angrily, "Who dares to talk nonsense? Just say that I asked you to take it back. Since it is Xiang girl's filial piety, you can just accept it with peace of mind."
Third Master Feng led people to move things and hurried back to the third room. Later, some of the Feng family heads led people to move things back to the first room. The second room waited and waited but Old Master Feng did not send anyone to ask them to move things. Naturally, Second Madam Feng had to cry and complain in front of Old Madam Feng.
"What did you mean by asking Yijia to go to Liuzhou Prefecture? But why did Xiang Yatou specifically ask Yijia to go to Liuzhou Prefecture?" Mrs. Feng San looked at her husband with confusion.
Master Feng San looked at his wife's face full of doubt and replied, "I was also surprised when I first saw Xiang Yatou's letter. She just said that she heard from Yizhen and Yishuang that Jia Xiaozi was watching the fun, so please invite him to live in Liuzhou Mansion for a while. If we are willing, we can stay longer."
"By the way, I heard from father that Yishuang secretly followed Yizhen to Liuzhou Prefecture, and now she is being controlled by Xiang girl, and she can even recognize herbs. I think it was probably because Yizhen mentioned our Yijia to their mother, and because of your letter and gift money, my sister and her mother are grateful and want to help us take care of Yijia."
"Here, look at it. It's Xiang's return gift, sent by Yizhen. It's exactly the same as the one from the first room."
Mrs. Feng San opened the backpack on the table and saw the tea, cloth and herbs inside. Then she opened the four wooden boxes and was so surprised that she opened her mouth and lost her voice.
Master Feng San looked at his wife's rare dumbfounded look and laughed out loud: "Hahaha, you're scared, right? I told you Xiang girl is a grateful person. Hurry up and help Yijia pack her things. Oh, just bring a few changes of clothes, but don't bring the banknotes or the child."
Seeing his wife looking at him with a puzzled look, Master Feng San kindly explained: "Do you think he really went there to travel? He went there to experience life. Hahaha..."
"But......"
"Don't blame my dear wife. If we can't do it ourselves, then someone can teach him. Isn't that what we should be looking for? Finally someone is willing to teach that brat a lesson. Today, I want to drink three cups."
After Master Feng Sanye led his people out of the study, Master Feng opened the letter from Feng Yizhen. After reading it, the father and son fell into deep thought again.
“Herbs and grains are necessities for people’s lives and the lifeblood of the country. The owner of a small rice store in Liuzhou Prefecture can control nearly half of the rice circulating in the eight nearby cities. If they were sent by the enemy, or had the slightest rebellious intention…” When the head of the Feng family said this, both father and son felt a chill in their hearts.
If we think about it more deeply, these are only the nine remote prefectures. Does this situation also exist in other prosperous prefectures in Haoyue? Who controls these rice grains?
