The list is very simple. There are only two kinds of fabrics: one is black cloud and mist silk embroidered with pines and cypresses, and the other is red green cicada wings embroidered with daylily.
There is also a delivery space left for a brewery in Kyoto that brews sorghum wine.
Pine and cypress trees are often planted near cemeteries and are taboo, so distinguished guests from Kyoto prefer clouds and mists embroidered with bamboo. This kind of black cloud-mist silk fabric with embroidered pine and cypress trees is not very pleasing to the eye. It has been backlogged in the store for several years and no one cares about it.
When shopkeeper Zhou first purchased the goods, he said that it would be best if he bought this material and made it into a black gold cloud embroidered shirt, which would look ethereal and light.
Hemerocallis is used in Dafeng to represent the filial piety of children, and has always been a flower given to mothers. The red green cicada wings are a specialty fabric from her sister-in-law Gu Yan's hometown.
Ye Chuyan always felt that this list was a bit strange. He frowned in thought for a moment and was suddenly startled.
The black gold cloud embroidered shirt and pines and cypresses represent Wu Mu.
Hemerocallis and red cicada wings represent her mother and sister-in-law.
The winter in Ningguta is extremely long, so sorghum wine is cheap and a strong body-warming drink, making it the favorite of the exiles there.
He had told Wu Mu underground in Tianlang Village that if he died, he would have time to visit his mother.
This list is a letter written by Wu Mu to her.
He was afraid that Pei Xiuyan would become suspicious, so he told himself in this way that he would help him go to Ninggu Pagoda to visit his mother and the others. He was silently fulfilling his promise.
Ye Chuyan felt mixed emotions in his heart.
She couldn't express her gratitude to Wu Mu now, and she didn't even dare to mention his name in front of Pei Xiuyan, so she could only bury this feeling deep in her heart.
She suppressed the emotion in her eyes, tried her best to act as if nothing had happened, closed the account book, and said calmly to Shopkeeper Zhou:
"You go back and put a notice on the door of the store, saying that all the income earned in the past two days will be donated to the refugees. I would like to thank these distinguished guests for their generosity."
Everyone in the room was stunned.
Shopkeeper Zhou was the first to react and said excitedly: "Okay, okay, okay."
He had been worried about this matter before. He was afraid that it would affect his employer, and he was also worried that these people would not get what they asked for and would bite back and accuse his employer of taking bribes.
It's fine now. By doing this, these people suffered the loss of being mute and couldn't make a sound.
Pei Xiuyan walked to the door of the front hall and happened to hear Ye Chuyan's words and couldn't help but clap his hands and cheer.
"Ayan is really exquisite."
Shopkeeper Zhou turned around and saw Pei Xiuyan, and quickly bowed and saluted.
Pei Xiuyan raised his hand to signal Shopkeeper Zhou to stand up.
Ye Chuyan said to Shopkeeper Zhou: "You should go back and do it now. Exchange all the money into silver notes and deliver it to me before dark."
Shopkeeper Zhou happily agreed, saluted the two of them and left.
Ye Chuyan smiled at Pei Xiuyan and said, "Ace, you came just in time. I was about to discuss something with you."
Pei Xiuyan is in a very good mood today.
"If Ayan has something to do, just arrange it and do it without discussing it with me."
Ye Chuyan straightened his face and said seriously: "We will set off tomorrow. This matter must be done today, and I have to do it myself."
These words successfully aroused Pei Xiuyan's interest, "Oh? What's the matter?"
"The emperor rewarded me with a lot of things for suppressing bandits. I think I sold them all and donated them all to the refugees."
Pei Xiuyan frowned slightly, "Do you want to sell the emperor's gift?"
Selling the things given by the emperor is a great disrespect to the royal family. Most people who receive rewards will not do this unless they are forced to do so.
Ye Chuyan nodded, "Well, that's why I have to discuss it with you and I have to do it myself. If you don't agree, I won't do it."
Ye Chuyan is the Princess of Qing. Once the emperor investigates the matter of selling the royal gifts, the Prince of Qing's palace will eventually be blamed.
Moreover, general stores do not accept gifts from the royal family, and only a few royal shops in Kyoto dare to accept them.
In order to prevent slaves from stealing things and selling them, the principle of collecting things given by the emperor in these shops is to require the master to go there in person, otherwise they will not accept it.
"Ace, I met those refugees on the way to suppress the bandits. Many of them exchanged their children for food. The emperor's reward was nothing more than gold, silver and jewelry. These are indispensable to me, but for those refugees, "A bowl of porridge can save a life."
After Ye Chuyan finished speaking, he looked at Pei Xiuyan with longing in his eyes.
Pei Xiuyan tugged Ye Chuyan's broken hair and said fondly: "Ayan is concerned about the country and the people, so of course I support her."
Ye Chuyan hugged Pei Xiuyan happily, "Thank you, Ace."
With Pei Xiuyan's approval, Ye Chuyan quickly arranged for servants to move everything in the small warehouse of Jiangjiayuan onto the carriage. Yan Che took a dozen guards and followed her to the royal store.
The shopkeeper was shocked by the things Ye Chuyan brought, but when he learned that Ye Chuyan was selling things to exchange money for disaster relief, he was impressed and quickly counted the things and valued them at thirty thousand taels of gold.
Ye Chuyan did not bargain, but agreed immediately. The two parties wrote the sales letter and quickly concluded the deal.
Ye Chuyan returned to the Qing Palace with the banknotes. Back at the mansion, shopkeeper Zhou's banknote was also delivered.
She arranged for Mrs. Mo to exchange her banknotes for food and find someone to transport it to the disaster area.
※
Since Ye Chuyan lost her internal strength, her energy was obviously not as good as before. In addition, Pei Xiuyan said that she would leave for Jiangnan early tomorrow morning, so she fell asleep quickly today.
Pei Xiuyan looked sideways at Ye Chuyan's sleeping face and couldn't help but gently trace her eyebrows with his hands.
In the final analysis, he went to provide disaster relief this time to serve the emperor and let the people remember the emperor's kindness.
Ye Chuyan is his princess. Once he donates extra money, Pei Ye will definitely think that he wants to take the opportunity to gain fame for himself.
Pei Ye has always been most taboo about this. Is Ye Chuyan really thinking about the refugees or does he have other agendas?
He should have refused outright today, so why did he relent in the end?
It's because after Ye Chuyan lost his power, he seemed to be less unruly, and his eyebrows became gentler and gentler. Every time he faced this tender and affectionate face, his heart would melt.
Pei Xiuyan rubbed Ye Chuyan's eyebrows over and over again, and only when Ye Chuyan frowned slightly in his sleep did he suddenly withdraw his hand.
He held Ye Chuyan in his arms and told himself secretly. No, Ayan loves herself so much that she will not have any other ideas. She did this for the sake of refugees.
He has no father, no mother, no brothers and sisters. Ayan is the closest person to him in the world and will definitely not betray him.
Finally, he slowly fell asleep under this suggestion.
When he closed his eyes, Ye Chuyan slowly opened his eyes in the dark night.
Pei Xiuyan has always been sensitive to government affairs, and today he actually allowed her to sell her rewards to make donations. She won this round.
She used Pei Xiuyan's love for her to slowly pull Pei Xiuyan towards the abyss.
※
The next day, Pei Xiuyan got up very early, and Ye Chuyan was also called out.
Madam Mo had already arranged everything, and Pei Xiuyan set off with Ye Chuyan.
The disaster relief silver and food had been transported to Jiangnan two days ago. They only brought the luggage of a few carriages and a dozen guards. Bai Zhi and Yan Pei, as personal guards and maids, naturally followed them.
On this trip, I almost traveled light.
After leaving the city, Pei Xiuyan felt that Yan Qi and Bai Zhi were an eyesore, so he drove the two people into other carriages.
Ye Chuyan watched Yan Pei get off the car with Bai Zhi with red ears, and couldn't help laughing: "Ace, when we come back from Jiangnan, how about letting Yan Pei marry Bai Zhi?"
Pei Xiuyan twisted a piece of pastry and fed it into Ye Chuyan's mouth, "Yan Qi is already your bodyguard, you can arrange it as you like."
Ye Chuyan was lying in Pei Xiuyan's arms, looking angry and smiling, "Yan Che is my bodyguard? If I ask him to kill you, will he do it?"
Pei Xiuyan paused and laughed at himself: "Ayan wants my life, so go ahead and take it, why do you need to cut it off?"
Ye Chuyan chuckled, and after finishing laughing, she stared at Pei Xiuyan's face affectionately.
"Ace, I can't bear to take your life."
I can't let you die easily, what I want is for you to be ruined, miserable, and use your blood to clear the Ye family's innocence.
Pei Xiuyan liked that Ye Chuyan looked at her so affectionately, because at this time, there was no one else in her eyes except herself. Even if it was really packed with poison, he would still drink it willingly.
He couldn't help but lowered his head and kissed Ye Chuyan.
Human beings are very strange things, with many emotions, including obsession, anger, and resentment.
Of these emotions, only love and hate are the same. The same extreme, the same can be engraved in the bones, making people unable to forget or let go.
Life is endless, love and hate are endless.
Ye Chuyan responded to the kiss because of the strong hatred in his bones; Pei Xiuyan was addicted to the kiss because of the strong love in his bones.
To a certain extent, they are equally pitiful. They are all experiencing greed, anger, ignorance, not getting what they want, resentment and hatred, and love and separation.
From the beginning to the end, I don't know who bit the tip of the other's tongue first, and both of them had bloody mouths.
Love and hate merge into blood, and you and I cannot be distinguished.
