The county magistrate's daughter only wants to farm

Before dinner, Gu Yin met her eldest uncle Gu Huaizhen, who had just returned from work, her second uncle Gu Huairen, and her eldest uncle's eldest brother Gu Chenrui.

"The fourth girl is back. How are you doing in Ning County?" Gu Huaizhen asked.

Gu Huaizhen inherited 70% of his father's looks, but his face was not as serious as Gu Zheng's, and looked more generous.

"Ning County is nice and comfortable." Gu Yin said with a smile.

My second uncle Gu Huairen worked in the Ministry of Works. He was involved in woodblock printing and learned from the Shangshu that this woodblock printing was also created by his fourth niece. So he had been sizing her up since he saw Gu Yin.

Hearing her answer, he smiled and said, "I have been hearing about your deeds in the Ministry of Works for the past two years. I originally doubted whether the county lady they were talking about was the fourth girl from our family. Now, although it is the same person, she is completely different."

"Please forgive me, Second Uncle. Yin'er was like that before. She should thank the elders and brothers and sisters at home for taking care of her..."

"Alas, uncle doesn't mean that." Gu Huairen waved his hand and said, "I am very happy that you have the good fortune you have now."

"This is a little thing my uncle carved in his spare time. If you don't mind, you can take it and play with it."

"Thank you, second uncle!" Gu Yin took it with joy. It turned out to be a lively little fox.

Gu Yin couldn't put it down and started playing with it.

Her eldest uncle gave her a painting, and her tall and handsome eldest brother gave her a pair of earrings.

Gu Yin liked these family members from the bottom of her heart; their eyes told her that they were truly happy for her.

As the saying goes, if someone respects me three points, I will respect him ten feet. Gu Yin was never a stingy person, so she immediately asked Zhenzhu to bring the prepared gift.

"Grandfather, I heard from my brother that you like to drink. This is the Divine Intoxicant. You can try it later."

Gu Zheng's expressionless face suddenly froze. He suppressed his excitement and carefully took the jar of wine and held it in front of him. He stammered and said, "Girl is thoughtful."

"As long as Grandfather likes it, if you finish drinking it, tell your granddaughter and I will bring it to you."

"Okay." Gu Zheng answered decisively, and his usually serious face suddenly broke into a stiff smile.

This scene shocked everyone in the room, and they all looked at him with surprise.

Gu Zheng coughed lightly as if nothing had happened and gently placed the jar of wine on the table.

Gu Yin then gave out the other gifts one by one.

"Yin girl, grandma is old, you should keep this perfume for yourself..."

"Grandma, you look rosy-cheeked, so you don't look old at all. Besides, this perfume has a calming effect. Try spraying a little before going to bed, and you'll sleep better." Gu Yin explained obediently with a smile.

Madam Gu held the bottle in her hand again and exclaimed, "Oh? It can actually help you sleep. Grandma, you must accept this perfume."

At this moment, there was a sudden exclamation in the room, "Wow, could this be Tao Huaxiao's cosmetics set?"

"Qin girl, what are you making so much noise about?" Aunt Yang said angrily.

Gu Qin is only three months older than Gu Yin and ranks third.

"Aunt, look what this is?" Gu Qin handed the exquisite wooden box to Yang.

Yang carefully looked at the various exquisite bottles and brushes in the box, looked at the logo outside the box in disbelief, looked at Gu Yin and asked, "Is this Taohuaxiao's cosmetics?"

Gu Yin was puzzled. "Yeah, Third Sister doesn't like it? If you don't like it..."

"I like it! I like it!" Gu Qin said hurriedly, fearing that Gu Yin would regret it and take it back. "Fourth sister, where did you get this?"

"Do you know how hard it is to buy Taohuaxiao's cosmetics?" Gu Qin asked again.

Gu Yin looked bewildered. Ever since Tao Huaxiao's business got on track and she handed over matters to Xiang Tao, she had basically never asked about it.

Gu Qin looked at her and thought she didn't know how valuable the gift was, so he explained, "You can't buy this box without two hundred taels of silver!"

"No, you can't buy it even if you have money! The noble ladies in the capital are proud to have a set of Taohuaxiao cosmetics..."

As she was talking, Gu Qin suddenly asked worriedly, "Fourth sister, you bought this...it must have cost you a lot of money, right?"

Thinking of this, although Gu Qin was very reluctant, she still handed the box to Gu Yin, "You can return this. We are sisters, there is no need to spend so much money."

Gu Yin showed her eight big white teeth and pushed the box back. "Don't worry, Third Sister, take it. I developed these cosmetics myself."

Gu Qin's beautiful eyes widened instantly, and her cherry-red lips opened unconsciously, "Are you the owner of Peach Blossom Smile?"

Gu Yin smiled and nodded.

It's no wonder they didn't know. Gu Huaiyi only mentioned things like waterwheel printing in his correspondence, but didn't reveal anything about Gu Yin's private industries. He didn't even know about some of Gu Yin's businesses.

"Oh my God!" All the women in the room exclaimed.

"The fourth girl's ability is really beyond words." Second aunt Li recovered from her shock and smiled with emotion.

The second sister, Gu Yue, also opened her box. Sure enough, it was exactly the same as Gu Qin's. She was immediately overjoyed and said, "I never thought that we would have this day, to own the cosmetics that are rumored to improve our appearance by three points."

"My second sister is already pretty, and cosmetics are just the icing on the cake." Gu Yin was right.

Gu Yue has fair skin, a pretty face, and dimples when she smiles. She is both pretty and cute.

After hearing this, Gu Yue's dimples deepened, and she giggled, "Fourth sister, what you say is really nice. But if you ask me, this cosmetic arrived just in time. The day after tomorrow, the Ningde Marquis's wife will hold a flower-viewing banquet, and it will be just right for them to be used!"

"What flowers can we enjoy in this season?" Gu Yin blurted out.

Yang sat aside, holding a cup of tea and said leisurely, "The point of the flower viewing banquet is not what kind of flowers to view. It's just to find an excuse to gather people you know, to inquire about information, and to kill time..."

"Having said that, the lotus flowers are in full bloom now, so it would be nice to go and admire them. Since the fourth girl is back, let's go and see them together the day after tomorrow?" Li followed.

"Yes, Yin has never been to a flower-viewing banquet, so this is a good opportunity for her to go and have a look." Madam Gu smiled kindly, looking at the three granddaughters of the right age in the room, and said to Yang, "My eldest daughter-in-law, please help keep an eye out for the young talents from various families at the banquet to see if there are any suitable ones..."

Gu Yue and Gu Qin immediately lowered their heads and blushed.

Only Gu Yin looked confused. No matter which dynasty it was, men and women of marriageable age could not escape the pressure from their families to get married.

Fortunately, she already has a target and doesn't have to be forced to go on a blind date.

Thinking of Jun Lan, Gu Yin's heart was moved. She wondered if he had returned from the Beijing Guard Camp and when they could meet.
