Evil Sister in Charge: As long as you are thick-skinned, you can eat meat every meal
Chapter 160 This Gift is Really Valuable
"Where are the people? I'm back!"
"Where have all of you gone? Is anyone still breathing? Get out here right now!"
As soon as the carriage stopped, Qiao Wenyuan jumped off nimbly. His jump almost scared the servant who was guarding the Qiao family. When did this old man become so agile? Did he take some magic medicine to regain his youth?
"Master, Madam, the old man is back!"
The servants of the Qiao family were quite smart. When they saw the old master's carriage parked at the door of their house, they ran into the yard as soon as they could. If they reported it too late, the old master would be so angry that he would tear the roof off the house.
After leaving the court, Qiao Guanjie was tending to the flowers and plants in the backyard. He was almost pissed off by Prince Wu'an today. His father was not around, so Prince Wu'an had no rival and started staring at him. He was angry but could not say anything. He could only hold his breath and listen to Prince Wu'an scolding him. Alas! This is really the best example of a son paying for his father's debt!
"Are you serious?" Qiao Guanjie was stunned at first, then he was ecstatic. Now that his father was back, he wouldn't have to be chased and scolded by King Wu'an anymore, wuwuwu!
"Yes, master, you should go and take a look! If you don't go, the old man will make a scene at the gate!" The servants of the Qiao family were worried about their master. Doesn't the master know what kind of person his father is?
Qiao Guanjie immediately dropped the small shovel in his hand and ran to the front yard at a speed comparable to that of a sprinter.
Shao Yiling also received the report from the servants, and hurriedly took Qiao Yuchen to the front yard. She knew her father-in-law's personality too well. He liked to be pampered and coaxed by his family. If she came back and the younger generations didn't arrive in time, they would definitely nag for several hours. Hurry up and run!
"Dad! What are you doing?"
"Oh my god! Is this a ghost orchid? Dad, how come you have so many of them?"
As soon as Qiao Guanjie arrived at the front yard, he saw his father directing the servants to move things into the yard. The whole yard seemed to be wrapped in a strange fragrance, which made people feel relaxed and happy. He took a closer look and covered his mouth excitedly. Wow, ten ghost orchids. You can tell they are top quality at a glance!
"Tsk! Isn't that awesome? This time I'm going to piss that old bastard King Wu'an off to death! Humph!"
"Hurry up and clean up the little garden for me. Haha, these are all my treasures. Have someone look after them. If you drop a leaf, I'll break your legs!"
"Dad, this ghost orchid doesn't seem to have leaves, right?" Qiao Guanjie asked weakly. Is his dad crazy? Can he open his eyes and take a good look? Where are the leaves? Does this ghost orchid have leaves?
"Oh! Have you become more capable? You know how to talk back to me. Do you think that I won't dare to hit you just because you are the Censor of the Censorate?"
"Daughter-in-law, lend me your feather duster. If I don't beat this unfilial son to a pulp today, I won't be named Qiao!"
Shao Yiling was a good and obedient daughter-in-law. She immediately handed the feather duster to Qiao Wenyuan from behind. She knew that it would be a good idea for her to take it in advance. See how foresighted she was!
Qiao Yuchen's mouth twitched as she watched. No wonder her mother had to go back to get the feather duster halfway after she left, saying that it would be useful in a while. And she really did use it. She couldn't help but shed tears of sympathy for her father.
"Dad! Dad! Don't hit me! I was wrong!" Qiao Guanjie ran so fast, and then he was surprised to find that his father, who usually wanted to sleep on the ground after walking a few steps, could actually catch up with his running speed. Oh my God! He was dead!
After being hit hard several times, his father finally calmed down.
"Notify your two sisters to come over for dinner tonight. Your youngest sister has a gift for you."
"Here, this is for you! Daughter-in-law, keep it well!" Qiao Wenyuan took out a large, tightly wrapped oil paper bag and handed it to Shao Yiling.
Shao Yiling was a little surprised. Usually, gifts are packed in exquisite boxes. This was the first time she had seen a gift packed like this. She was very curious about what was inside.
"Grandpa, sister Sisi, oh oh oh, no, no, it's my aunt, did she bring me a gift?" Qiao Yuchen stared at his grandfather eagerly, his eyes full of anticipation.
"How have you been doing in learning the rules recently? Which of your music, chess, calligraphy and painting have you improved? How well have you learned the housekeeper's accounting?" Qiao Wenyuan's three questions made Qiao Yuchen silent. What other gifts did he want? He should save his life first!
Qiao Yuchen immediately found a lame excuse and left quickly. If she didn't run away, she was afraid that her grandfather would bring up old issues and exaggerate them. She might even be beaten with a feather duster by her father. So she decided to run away first!
"Dad! This is what my little sister asked you to give me. It's a thousand-year-old ginseng!" Shao Yiling couldn't help but raise her voice. As the daughter of a family of imperial physicians, she did have some vision.
So she opened the oil paper package and saw a ginseng as thick as a child's arm wrapped in moist moss in front of her!
"Yes! They were given to you by your little sister. One for each of you and your two sisters!" Qiao Wenyuan said indifferently. He would never say that the little girl actually gave one to each of them, but he secretly withheld three of them.
"Dad, this is too expensive. How can we accept it?" Qiao Guanjie looked at the big ginseng in front of him in surprise.
Shao Yiling felt it was mysterious. Why did her father-in-law talk about ginseng as if he was talking about radish? He gave each person one ginseng. This was a thousand-year-old ginseng, which was not common in the market. Moreover, the quality of this ginseng was very good. It was a rare treasure!
This little sister whom she had never met was so generous. She was really willing to spend money on them. When the little sister came to Beijing, she, as her sister-in-law, would definitely prepare some gifts for her and would not treat her badly.
"You should keep what your little sister gave you. When she comes to the capital, you should take good care of her."
"Okay, I'm going to go see my Gui Lan. Remember to arrange dinner tonight!" Qiao Wenyuan said and left, leaving the couple looking at each other in bewilderment.
"Madam, I'll ask you to take care of the family banquet. I'll go see Guilan too! Hehe!"
Qiao Guanjie also ran away. He was thinking that he could say something nice to please his father and give him a pot of ghost orchid so that he could go out and show off.
Shao Yiling rolled her eyes helplessly. This family would fall apart sooner or later without her. No one was reliable!
She lowered her head and looked at the fresh ginseng in her hand again. She decided to go back to her parents' home and give the fresh ginseng to her father, a medical geek, and ask him to help prepare it, otherwise the fresh ginseng would be difficult to preserve.
Without further ado, Shao Yiling asked the servants to help prepare the carriage, and she hurried back to her parents' home.
