The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

Chapter 268 Farewell (2)

Huo Yun's yard was not far from the main house, and Yang Qi and his group arrived there in less than a quarter of an hour.

"Yusheng Courtyard."

Yang Qi looked at the plaque in front of the courtyard and read softly.

But I didn't expect that a military commander like Brother Huo Yun would give his courtyard such an elegant name. However, the words on the plaque were too murderous, which did not quite match the word "Yu Sheng".

Perhaps seeing what Xiao Qi was thinking, Huo Yun said, "This courtyard was named by mother, and this plaque was written by father."

So that's how it is. My adoptive father and mother practiced martial arts while one read books. This plaque perfectly reflects this point.

Thinking of this, Yang Qi looked at the plaque again and found it much more pleasing to the eye.

Yang Qi left Xiaoqing, Ayi and Chen Jing in the yard, and only took Adu into Brother Huo Yun's warehouse.

After all, among these people, only Adu is Yang Qi's secret guard, although, this only secret guard was also sent by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

To Yang Qi's surprise, Brother Huo Yun's warehouse was much larger than he had imagined. It was about ten feet long and might be as big as the main house of Yusheng Courtyard.

However, dozens of large boxes and antique display cabinets placed in a mess in the room made the warehouse full.

The boxes were opened sporadically, and at a glance one could see the gold, silver and jewels inside, many of which were full and about to overflow.

Looking at these spoils of war, Huo Yun's eyes were full of arrogance: "Pick it yourself, take whatever you like."

Yang Qi couldn't help but praise Brother Huo Yun in her heart. It was so cool to have such a rich and generous brother. No wonder such a character must be created in those storybooks. Even if there is no such character in real life, it is fun to just listen to it.

"Brother, are these your spoils?" Yang Qi pointed at the room full of gold, silver and treasures.

Huo Yun smiled imperceptibly and nodded, saying, "Although the Western Barbarians are short of food, they are not short of gold, silver and jewelry. Even ordinary families have quite a few."

"Brother, you are really amazing. I am dazzled by all the spoils."

Normally, every courtyard's warehouse would have a booklet recording all the items. However, looking at the way Brother Huo Yun placed the boxes haphazardly, it seemed that he himself didn't even know how many items he had.

"Take your time to choose. There's no need to rush." ​​Huo Yun was indeed not in a hurry. Xiao Qi was just returning to Beijing, so it didn't matter whether he left early or late. It was not like going on an expedition or fighting a war, which required a fixed time.

After getting the approval from elder brother Huo Yun, Yang Qi looked at these treasures with his eyes full of smiles and expectations, as if he was a beggar who had been hungry for more than ten days and suddenly saw a banquet.

Huo Yun was the person who had the most contact and understanding with Yang Qi in the Duke of Ying. During the whole journey, except for a little fear when crossing the cliff, Xiao Qi was calm and composed the rest of the time.

Now, suddenly seeing Xiao Qi's joy at the sight of money, Huo Yun saw the expression that a teenager should have in Yang Qi.

Yang Qi has never denied that he is a money-grubber.

Since the tragic experience in the previous life, Yang Qi started saving money since he was a child. When he received red envelopes during festivals, he was the happiest. Later, Guangming Pharmacy gradually got on the right track and developed into Guangming Hall. Yang Qi finally had a solid income of his own. However, his habit of saving money did not change at all.

There are so many good things in Brother Huo Yun’s warehouse, from jade pendants to necklaces, and even a whole box of luminous pearls!

When Yang Qi opened the box of night pearls, she was dazzled by the sight and could hardly open her eyes.

This night-shining pearl is a treasure, which is rarely seen in ordinary wealthy families. The Duke of Song’s Mansion also has it, but only Song Hongwen and the old lady have it. Yang Lan might have it sent by the Marquis of Yongyi’s Mansion.

But Brother Huo Yun actually had a whole box of them. A whole box! There were all kinds of things, big and small.

Seeing that Yang Qi couldn't take his eyes off the night pearl, Huo Yun found a big box from somewhere and said, "If you like them, put them in the box."

Looking at the big box that was half a person's height, Yang Qi pursed his lips and swallowed his saliva: "Brother, there is no need for such a big box." Has he entered Jinshan? In just these two days, all he saw were treasures.

Each item here is very valuable, and now Brother Huo Yun has bought himself such a big box.

If I really picked so many, I would never have to go hungry in my life.

Huo Yun was a little surprised to see Xiao Qi shaking her head. For a moment he didn't know whether to put down the box in his hand or continue holding it.

Does Xiaoqi not like it? But the way his eyes sparkled just now clearly showed that he really likes it.

"Do you find it inconvenient or do you just not like it?"

Yang Qi couldn't hide the smile on his face: "How could I not like it? There shouldn't be any girl in this world who can refuse this.

My stepmother has already prepared two boxes of luggage for me. Besides, big brother, you know that this journey is not peaceful. If I carry so many valuables openly, wouldn't I be making myself a living target for those bandits to rob?"

Knowing what Xiaoqi was thinking, Huo Yun handed the box to Ah Du: "Pick out everything you like in this box. See how much you can take this time. Take some first. The rest, Ah Xuan or I will go to Beijing later and bring it to you."

Brother Huo Yun had such good intentions, Yang Qi did not reject his kindness: "Then Xiao Qi will not be polite to you, brother."

Although Brother Huo Yun did not speak, Yang Qi knew in his heart that he had saved him last time and he had always remembered this friendship, otherwise he would not have been so persistent today.

If I don't accept Brother Huo Yun's gift, I'm afraid this matter will always be in Brother Huo Yun's mind.

Moreover, from Brother Huo Yun's attitude, we know that he really doesn't care about these things outside of himself.

Therefore, Yang Qi reluctantly accepted the gift from Brother Huo Yun.

Yang Qi happily searched for many items he liked, but only stopped when he saw that the big box was almost full.

"Brother, I have plundered a lot from you this time!" Yang Qi said with joy as he patted the box given by Brother Huo Yun.

"If you like, you can empty this storehouse." Huo Yun really didn't know what was so precious about these beads and jades? They couldn't be eaten or drunk, and keeping them on him would only bring a lot of inconvenience, without any benefit.

Over the years, Huo Yun has not worn any other jewelry except the jade pendant carved by his father himself, which symbolizes the descendants of the Huo family.
