It turned out that the person who got off the car was none other than the eunuch Xing, whom Yuxiu wanted to attack in the palace last time.

Seeing that the Xu family was already on high alert, Eunuch Xing knew that they had already learned the news. Although his face looked a little bad, he did not dare to openly trip them up at this time.

The main reason was that the emperor had a very high opinion of the Xu family this time, and he wanted to use this to set an example. As the emperor's personal eunuch, Eunuch Xing knew the emperor's thoughts very well.

Thinking about the fact that they were able to make preparations in advance, it seemed that they had connections in the palace, so his originally gloomy expression improved a little, and he forced a smile on his face.

Xu Qinghe went up with his whole family to pay their respects. Eunuch Xing suppressed his anger, smiled cheerfully, and waved for the imperial edict to come over.

What followed was the normal process of announcing the decree. Although it was a bit difficult to understand, Yuxiu listened carefully and understood the general meaning was to praise Xu Qinghe for his selfless act of donating the recipe for the hot kang.

They said he was a role model for the people of the capital, and not only rewarded him with two boxes of gold and silver, but also some precious fabrics and medicinal herbs.

Yuxiu didn't take these too seriously. The most important thing was that the emperor also gave her a plaque with some large characters engraved in a flamboyant style.

Home of good deeds

According to the letter Qi Siyuan sent earlier, he also said that some work was delayed because of the production of this plaque.

Xu Qinghe was somewhat flattered, and quickly took his family to thank Long Enhaodang. He then personally led people up and took the plaque from the young eunuchs.

Several heavy boxes of valuables were unloaded from the carriage at the back, but no one dared to take them. The big words "Imperial Gift" engraved on the boxes were not just words.

Although the reward is not very valuable, it is a great honor for Xu Qinghe's family.

Even the Cui family members who came along were happy for them from the bottom of their hearts.

Because these people made quite a fuss when they came over, the neighbors also gathered around. Regardless of whether they were sincere or not, they kept saying auspicious words to congratulate them.

As for the kang that had caused so much controversy before, most of these neighbors’ homes now have one. You won’t know about it until you use it, and you’ll be shocked when you use it.

The kang is economical, clean and very convenient to use, making it much easier for everyone to get through this cold winter.

But no one knew before that this recipe came from Xu Qinghe's home. Only after today's publicity did everyone understand.

Eunuch Xing watched coldly as Xu Qinghe made his way around the crowd, with style in every move. Looking at Cui, although she was covered in a large cloak, you could also tell that she was a gentle and virtuous woman.

As for Xu's daughter Yuxiu, when Eunuch Xing turned his gaze over, she was unexpectedly bumped into a pair of half-smiles.

Eunuch Xing felt very uncomfortable with this look. He placed several orders with the people from Yunlan Pavilion, and the first two were rejected. Later, he got angry and went there in person. In addition to the silver bills, he also took out a palace item, and only then did Xu Qing accept the order.

Not long after, a letter was sent to him, saying that the big boss of Yunlan Pavilion had personally taken over the order, and told him that there was no rush for this matter, and that when the time was right, he would give him an explanation in person.

As he looked at this happy family, the anger in Eunuch Xing's heart was about to overwhelm him.

Judging from the information he received, the accidents of his eldest nephew and elder brother must have been caused by this family.

It is no wonder that Eunuch Xing tried every means to take the lives of Yuxiu's family. The main reason was that he had no descendants, so he raised his eldest nephew as his own son so that he could live out his life in peace when he left the palace.

Now, the nephew whom he had carefully cultivated was killed, and even the masters who helped him make medicine were killed.

Xu Qinghe had no idea of ​​Eunuch Xing's inner thoughts. He took out the purses he had prepared in advance and distributed them to the young eunuchs who came over. He then took out another larger purse and gave it to Eunuch Xing alone.

Eunuch Xing really didn't want to look at Xu Qinghe's bright smile any longer, so he had no intention of staying any longer and quickly said goodbye and left with his men.

Humph, I'll let you be proud for a few more days. Even if there are masters protecting you, it's impossible for them to watch you with disapproval. Sooner or later, someone will give you a chance to take advantage of you.

Yuxiu watched them slowly walk away and couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth.

The main reason why this old man came here today was to see with his own eyes what the person who might have killed his beloved nephew looked like.

Xu Qinghe was already busy asking people to move the things back to the yard. As for the plaque, it was the Cui family father and son who worked with him to carry it into the front hall and put it down.

When he first saw the plaque, he had already decided to clean up a room specifically to display the plaque.

Yuxiu, together with Old Lady Cui, helped Cui back to the backyard. Today they planned to set up a delivery room.

That is, a suite was cleaned up in the wing room in the backyard. All the cabinets and boxes inside were moved out. After it was cleaned, a custom-made couch of suitable height was placed inside.

Yuxiu secretly got some disinfectant and sprayed it several times. She also disinfected all the scissors and other items needed for delivery and put them away carefully.

In addition, the family usually adds spiritual spring water to their diet, so everyone is in good health, so Yuxiu is not very nervous.

"Madam, Miss, the second wife of Prince Ning's Mansion wants to see you..."

Just when Yuxiu was wondering if there was anything she had forgotten, the little maid Qingdai came in hurriedly with a visiting card.

"Please come in quickly."

Cui took the visiting card, glanced at it, and asked someone to invite the person immediately.

"I don't know if something happened, otherwise the Second Madam wouldn't be in such a hurry to come to my house in such a cold weather."

She explained to Yuxiu that although they had not spent much time together, she could tell that the Second Madam was a nice person, so she should help her if she could.

"Let's listen to what she says first."

Yuxiu also had a good impression of the Second Madam. Every time she went to see the old lady, she would always greet her warmly when she met the Second Madam. Later, she gave her a beauty pill, which made her so happy that she gave her several sets of jewelry.

"Madam Cui, please save me..."

The second wife came in quickly, and as soon as she opened her mouth, she couldn't help choking up.
