All Hail Cousin Brother

Chapter 827: Kowtow

This morning, just after the fourth watch, Hong'er got up and changed into the clean cotton clothes that Manager Qian had prepared for her, and she took care of herself neatly.

Along the way, Manager Qian said a lot more: "After arriving at Deyuelou, listen more to other retail investors' experiences in raising silkworms. If you have any questions, you can also ask on the spot. The silkworm farmers who taught you silkworm raising techniques will also exist……"

The people who can be chosen by Manager Qian have never seen much of the world, but they are also generous and straightforward people, so there is no need to worry about them being timid.

Hong'er thought that Princess Shaoyi was in the city, and her heart skipped a beat. She looked at the steward Qian who was walking in front. She stopped talking for a long time, and finally couldn't bear it anymore and said: "Steward Qian, your lord, the princess. , are you still in the inn?"

Unexpectedly, Hong'er was so bold as to inquire about Princess Shaoyi's whereabouts. Aunt Mei and Yu An were also startled and broke out in cold sweat.

Manager Qian's tone suddenly became stern: "Do your own thing well and stop asking about the princess."

Hong'er was startled, her hands and feet suddenly became cold, and she quickly said: "I, the daughter of the people, I didn't mean to offend the princess, I just wanted to kowtow to the county and the princess at the door of the inn. "

She stumbled to explain, and knelt down on the ground with a plop: "In October last year, our family fled famine to the outskirts of Beijing. We were so hungry that we were about to die. It was, it was the manager of Rouge Village who pulled several carts of sweet potatoes to provide relief. We inquired about the victims who were passing by and found out that Rouge Village belongs to the princess. At the end of the twelfth twelfth year of last year, my younger brother fell seriously ill. It was the medicinal materials provided by the princess that saved my younger brother’s life. It was also the village of Shaojun. , arranged for us to raise silkworms..."

At this point, she burst into tears.

Aunt Mei and Yu An felt the same way, and they both knelt down on the ground.

"The princess is so kind to you, and we, the untouchables, have nothing to repay in this life. I just want to kowtow to the princess at the door of the inn, and wish the princess a long life and good health. Mr. Qian will agree to it." !”

"Promise us..."

"..."

The three of them knelt on the ground and begged. Manager Qian sighed slightly: "The princess has a kind heart and is always kind to others. She doesn't care about this. You all should get up!"

The three of them refused to get up and insisted on kowtowing to their great benefactor.

Seeing their sincerity, Manager Qian couldn't bear to refuse, so he had to say: "Let's make an agreement first, and we'll kowtow outside the inn and that'll be it."

The three of them were overjoyed and quickly said yes.

Yin Huaixi went to Dandong, and will then go to other areas to resettle refugees, and will not return to Liancheng.

He arranged for Huang Wenwen to come over. In addition to contacting foreign businessmen and discussing cooperation with the Xie Mansion, the most important thing was to escort Yu Youyao to Xiangping City.

After Liancheng was over, Yu Youyao was making arrangements to leave.

At this moment, Xia Tao walked in hurriedly: "Miss, Manager Qian is taking the three refugees selected to enter the city outside the inn to kowtow to you."

Yu Youyao frowned: "I don't care about this."

Xia Tao also said: "Steward Qian has also explained it, but they have all been greatly favored by the lady and insisted on coming to kowtow to the lady. Steward Qian saw that they were also sincere, so they brought them here."

Yu Youyao slowly put down the teacup and said nothing.

Xia Tao knew that the young lady was very concerned about the refugees, so she asked, "Should we summon them?"

Yu Youyao gently flicked the agarwood beads on her wrist. When an elder dies, filial sons and grandsons should always wear the belongings of their elders to show their grief and filial piety.

After another long while, she finally spoke: "It's not necessary to summon him, it's not appropriate."

Xia Tao thought thoughtfully, what the lady said was inappropriate, not impossible, impossible, impossible. Why is it inappropriate?

Throughout the Zhou Dynasty, there were tens of millions of victims, and almost all of them received relief from the lady.

The lady was kind-hearted in helping the victims. She did not ask anyone to be grateful to her. It was their own business for the victims to remember her kindness.

They are just ordinary people. Living a peaceful life in the future is the best reward for the young lady.

"After all, it's their respect." Yu Youyao would not turn a deaf ear. She pondered for a moment and then ordered: "I remember that a few days ago, the four families in Liancheng sent generous gifts, including two pieces of heavenly silk. You Go and cut three pieces of material, just follow my words..."

Hong'er and three others knelt respectfully at the door of the inn and made three kowtows and nine bows.

Although the post station was built in a relatively quiet place and was heavily guarded, no one usually dared to come and hang out. However, because it was a court post station, merchants who came to Liancheng would first come to the post station to rest and relax after entering the city.

Therefore, many people still saw the movement outside the inn.

Also a little confused.

At this moment, a well-dressed woman led a woman carrying a wooden pallet and walked out of the inn, exuding a sense of grandeur.

Manager Qian stepped forward quickly: "Miss Xia Tao, what are your orders?"

Hong'er and others were stunned for a moment, and then they realized that the "young lady" mentioned by Manager Qian was none other than Princess Shaoyi.

They just wanted to kowtow to the princess, but unexpectedly they alerted the princess, and they felt a little panicked for a moment.

Xia Tao smiled: "Princess learned that Manager Qian has brought someone here to greet her, and asked me to give it to her." She glanced at Chunxiao and the other two people who were kneeling on the ground respectfully: "Please give me a few words."

Manager Qian breathed a sigh of relief.

Hong'er and the other three were frightened and quickly knelt down on the ground without even daring to say a word.

In their opinion, Manager Qian was already a very respectable person. The fact that Manager Qian was so polite to this girl Xia Tao showed that he was the person the princess was waiting for.

The princess specially sent people in front of her to convey the message, which was a compliment to them.

Xia Tao smiled deeply: "Everyone, get up and talk!"

Hong'er and three others stood up quickly.

Xia Tao motioned to the woman standing behind her to come forward and gently picked up the silkworm silk in the wooden tray: "Do you know what kind of silkworm this is, the silk it spins, the cocoon it forms, and the silk it is woven into?"

Hong'er was stunned for a moment and quickly looked at the tray.

The handkerchief-sized piece of silk, with a bright green color, was like a shining emerald worn on a noble person. It was elegant, luxurious, and fascinating, almost dazzling their eyes.

The silkworm farmers who teach them how to raise silkworms will show them the cocoons, reeled silk, and woven silk of each type of silkworm, explain the characteristics of silk to them, and let them distinguish them.

Hong'er thought the princess was testing her, but she couldn't figure out what kind of silk it was. She could only try hard to identify it.

After a while, I was sweating profusely.

Aunt Mei and Yu An also turned pale and their bodies were shaking like chaff.

Uneasiness and fear spread silently.
