After traveling to ancient times, I relied on my husband to win
Chapter 174 Invitation, Gift Preparation
"Okay, okay. Take care, County Man Qin. I still have the Emperor to serve here, so I won't see you off."
"Don't bother me, sir. We'll take our leave now."
Qin Yan took Rong Jiuxuan away.
Li Dequan had all these things sent to the Queen's Palace. This was basically the time when the concubines went to the Queen's Palace to pay their respects.
After thinking about it, Li Dequan decided to personally take people to the Queen's palace.
Kunning Palace
Several concubines were playing cards, and Li Qingyang was sitting on the side playing Gobang with a little maid, and the air was filled with cute teasing.
The palace was no longer as solemn and dignified as before, especially with the fun things Qin Yan brought, no one was in the mood to put on airs.
Li Dequan came in with this look on her face, but since she was the emperor's woman after all, Li Dequan kept her head down the whole time she came in, and only after she came closer and performed the greetings did she explain her purpose.
"Greetings to the ladies. Today, Qin County Man came over and said that his adopted brother made some good things and sent them to the ladies as a tribute. He also opened a shop in the capital and said that he made some things that women would like. As soon as Qin County Man left, I rushed to deliver them to the ladies."
When Li Qingyang heard that it was sent by Qin Yan, he quickly dropped the chess piece and ran over to take a look.
"Brother Qin sent it. It must be a good thing. Bring it here and let me see what it is."
Several concubines also turned their eyes away from the card table as if to reward Li De, and looked at the boxes held by a row of palace maids behind him.
It’s not surprising that they reacted like this. Ever since Qin Yan started sending things to the palace, everyone in the palace felt happy about it and it’s no longer boring to stay in the palace.
This time it was specially given to them. Things belonging to women are even more curious.
Li Dequan didn't waste any words and asked all the palace maids to open the boxes one by one.
He took the things to introduce to the ladies. Li Qingyang went up to the box, picked it up, looked at it, touched it, and smelled it.
However, after hearing Li Dequan's introduction to the efficacy, the ladies who were sitting there could no longer sit still. They all stood up to smell it and try it out.
There is no woman who doesn't like cosmetics, especially the women in the harem. Within this huge palace wall, what they face every day is their own face. Since they are not short of money, they will definitely protect their face as much as possible.
There are facial masks, lip balm, blush, lozenge, and some concealer that I've never heard of.
Anyway, I heard it was for my face, and seeing the rich colors and the slight floral scent, I love it even more.
Li Dequan continued to introduce that the hairpins, earrings, necklaces, and bracelets specially designed by Rong Jiuxuan were roughly designed by Qin Yan's younger brother himself to match those makeup looks.
As expected, several ladies and Li Qingyang were attracted to it, but it was just eye-catching and not amazing.
After all, the craftsmanship of the gold hairpins and jewelry in the palace is the best in all of Dongwu, and the workmanship of these things is naturally not as good as that in the palace.
But I still like this design very much, so I took it back as a collection.
These things were distributed by the Empress to the concubines in each palace. Finally, before Li Dequan left, she hinted that Rong Jiuxuan would open the shop tomorrow.
After saying this, he took his leave and went to the imperial study. The emperor had to go to court to review memorials, so he had to serve him.
Li Qingyang volunteered to go and see what the store opened by Qin Yan and his adopted brother looks like tomorrow.
The imperial concubine was particularly supportive, "Qingyang, go and see if there is anything rare tomorrow, and bring some back for mother."
When the queen heard the imperial concubine's "whisper", she coughed twice and looked at her, saying, "Pay attention, I heard everything."
The imperial concubine didn't think anything was wrong, so she asked someone to take the things back and sat back at the card table. The queen told Li Qingyang to bring the gifts with him tomorrow and then went to play cards with the imperial concubine.
Qin Mansion
Qin Yan brought Rong Jiuxuan back from the palace. Halfway through the journey, he kicked Rong Jiuxuan out of the car and asked him to prepare some gifts, which he would later have someone send to his wife in the backyard to make a name for himself.
Rong Jiuxuan fell on his butt, it hurt so much that he stood up awkwardly, rubbing his butt. When he heard what his brother said, he resigned himself to his fate and went to prepare.
When he looked back, only the back of the car was left. Rong Jiuxuan limped and rubbed his back to the store to prepare things.
When Qin Yan returned to the mansion, Jiang Zhi was still asleep. They went there early, and came back almost immediately after putting their things down, so it didn't take them much time.
Qin Yan took advantage of this time to run to the study and write invitations, giving each lady an invitation gift, stating that the store would open tomorrow and there would be many good things to buy.
It took Qin Yan a while to write just a few pieces. His hands felt sore. Calligraphy is really difficult to write and it is very tiring.
Looking up at the sky, the sun has risen to its highest point in the sky, it's time for lunch.
Qin Yan's wrist was hurting so much that he couldn't cook, so he asked the cook to make the dishes he had taught her before.
Squirrel mandarin fish, pork rib soup, and a few side dishes, candied sweet potato, green vegetables, and French fries.
Qin Yan went to wake up Jiang Zhi first, and after cleaning her up, lunch was almost ready.
The two of them went to see Old Madam Qin and helped her to the dining table, where the freshly prepared lunch was.
Qin Rui has been going out frequently these days, saying that she is going out to play with a friend, who is also a friend studying at Imperial College.
Qin Yan didn't have time to ask her about her friend these days, so no one cared. Qin Rui learned all kinds of martial arts and could beat an adult man with the whip in her hand, so they didn't worry about her safety.
I won’t be back at noon, but I must be back in the afternoon.
After lunch, Old Madam Qin went to take a nap, and Qin Yan reported to Jiang Zhi what had happened that day.
He took Jiang Zhi to the study, asked Jiang Zhi to sit aside, prepared tea, snacks and notebooks, and rolled up his sleeves to continue writing posts.
After writing two more, Qin Yan couldn't stand it anymore. His wrist was too sore and he couldn't finish it by himself.
The servants in the mansion were hired as servants because they had no education, so they were no longer needed. So they called someone over and went to the Imperial College to find a few students who were short of money and agreed to copy books.
When the servant came back with three or four students, Qin Yan had already packed up his things and moved them to the garden, and arranged for Jiang Zhi to eat, drink and play in the pavilion next to the house.
It seems that some of the students I met are good. Those who are short of money are basically from farming families. It takes some ability for them to be able to study in the Imperial College.
No one was assigned a small table, and the name of the lady being invited was written on it, along with the opening hours and location of the store, and finally the invitation was signed as one's own.
Qin Yan stood aside and watched them write. He walked around them and said, "Well, it's not bad, and the handwriting is pretty good too."
It turns out that 80 percent of the problems in the world can be solved with money, and the remaining 20 requires additional money.
Seeing that they wrote well, Qin Yan went to read the storybook with his wife and fed her personally.
When Rong Jiuxuan came in, he saw several tables in the garden with words written on them. He was stunned for a moment and then saw two familiar people in the pavilion next to him.
