Chapter 351
Among the piles of seeds that were poured out, there were four small silver-carved boxes, each of which was engraved with exquisite patterns, and the style was not from the Tang Dynasty at first glance.It is so exquisitely made that people have to start to imagine what precious things are inside.

"...Let's pick out the things first and then talk about it."

The couple looked at each other for a while, Xie Jiu suggested.Wei Chi nodded, and began to pick out the four small boxes. After he finished, he carefully checked that there were no other items in the seeds, and then began to dump the next box.Similarly, each box contained four small silver boxes.

A total of sixteen small silver boxes were laid out in a row on the kang table. Wei Jia and Xie Jiu glanced at each other, and first looked at Aunt Liu and Li'er who were present.Sister-in-law Liu is old and refined, and she has stayed in a rich family before, so she knows what to say and what not to say, so she hurriedly said: "Master, madam, I am a lonely old woman who has no children, and she still expects to live in the house for the elderly." Well, please rest assured, Mrs. Madam, I know what to say and what to rot in my stomach."

Li'er grew up in such a complicated and cruel place as Jiaofangsi, and he is also a smart person. Seeing what Aunt Liu said, he quickly plopped down on his knees and said, "Master, madam, you saved Li'er's life." , the parents in the family have passed away, only my elder brother can depend on each other for life, and thanks to the blessing of the master and wife, I can reunite with my elder brother, even if Li'er is confused by lard, she will never say a word that should not be said."

Xie Jiu gave the two of them a cold look, and said, "Sister-in-law Liu, Li'er and I have been with me for a long time, and I trust you, so I transferred you to the backyard. We are a family, and we are all prosperous, and we are all damaged. , Master and I get along, you will get along, that’s what I’m talking about.”

"Yes, ma'am, we understand."

Wei Chi chuckled, and said, "It's been so many years since we've been a family. We all know what kind of character everyone is, so I don't need to say these things. Madam will keep these boxes first, and I will find Sai Yi tomorrow." Let’s talk about the seeds, Mrs. Liu put them away and deal with them. After a few days, I asked someone to clean up the fields and come out, so we can plant them again. In winter, there will be more food on the dining table.”

"Yes, sir."

Aunt Liu seemed relieved, and led Li'er to sow the seeds.After Mrs. Liu and Li'er went down, Wei Jia and Xie Jiu looked at each other, and the two of them let out a sigh of relief.Xie Jiu said: "What should I do? I heard that the imperial court's anti-corruption campaign is not over yet, and Said really doesn't know how to pick the time."

Xie Jiu couldn't help complaining. Wei Jia rubbed his chin and started thinking about it. While thinking, he said: "In this era, with such a small box and no radar detector, isn't it easy to hide something? Come on, first Let's see what it is, and see if it's worth hiding."

Xie Jiu gave him a white look, but she didn't object to opening the box to have a look. In other words, she was also curious about what it was.One person took a box and opened it, their faces were shocked, they looked at each other in disbelief, closed the box in unison, picked up the rest of the boxes, opened them all, looked at each other with dull expressions, a little at a loss—— What is contained in each box is not some magic or big thing, but a small stone.However, that stone has different colors and is crystal clear. It has a more charming and vulgar name called gemstone.

Wei Zhi swallowed uncontrollably, his throat slipped, and he stared at the extremely cute stone in the box, and said: "How about... let's accept it, and don't have to return it. People have already given away gifts. Going back... doesn't seem like a good idea, does it?"

Xie Jiu glanced at Wei Jia with a half-smile, but remained silent.Wei Jia felt ashamed for a while, and felt contempt for himself for a while. The dignified old men, the dignified eighth generation of poor peasants, their ideological realm can't catch up with Xie Jiu. Look at Xiao Jiujiu, his self-cultivation, his determination , such a row of gemstones is not tempting even in front of your eyes, your words and deeds are still so calm, still so elegant, and you don't look like you've been overwhelmed by material desires at all. It's no longer on the table, the so-called temptation is small, and the loss of integrity is big; the so-called...

Wei Jia was trying his best to praise Xie Jiu's greatness, and when he despised his own lack of realm, Xie Jiu suddenly reached out and picked up the box containing the blue gems, looked at Wei Jia with flickering eyes, and softly said: "Husband, Tell me, should this sapphire be made into a chain or a ring? It seems too big for a ring, and it doesn’t look good on your hand.”

With a sound of "bang dang", Wei Jia fell on the kang. Dare to love his beautiful sister who could not stand the test of gems, she collapsed gorgeously in front of a row of gems, but she was darker and calmer. I didn't see that it was because he didn't have enough vision. As expected of a person from a big family, he hid his thoughts deeply. It was not something a simple poor child like him could guess. However, from a certain angle, it also showed that his family Xie Jiu is a normal person.Isn't there a saying?The hobbies of women and dragons are the same.

A man who wiped his face and re-established his masculine dignity, coughed, straightened his posture, and made a serious suggestion: "Madam, according to my husband's opinion, these gems are too big, why don't we make a necklace and put them on?" It looks better, you know, if it is too big to wear on your hand, it will not be very attractive, and it will affect your temperament and taste, madam. Beware of people making jokes behind your back that we are nouveau riche, right? , have you forgotten about the wedding ring? Rings cannot be worn indiscriminately!"

Xie Jiu took it very seriously, and deeply believed that Wei Jia's suggestion for children's shoes was very pertinent and very practical, so he turned to consider other uses.All in all, an attitude, since the gem has been sent to the Weifu, it belongs to the Weifu.Wei Chi also believed that as a considerate and kind person, Said had traveled such a long distance and racked his brains to get such a few gemstones for him. All right.

Having made up their minds, the couple put their heads together, and happily began to figure out how to "dispose" of these few gems.Faced with all kinds of conceivable situations, the couple expressed their opinions and worked together. In short, they wanted to work together to keep these lovely stones safely in Weifu.After summing up for the whole night, the couple's eyes were reddened, and finally they came up with a more reasonable plan, and then they went to sleep contentedly.

"Boom... boom boom... boom boom boom..."

Wei Chi was having a sweet dream, dreaming of holding a lot of big, high-purity gems of various colors in his hand, grinning and laughing, when the flow pillow was full of saliva, there was a loud knock on the door, The constant and unremitting ringing, insisting on waking up Wei Jia and interrupting his sweet dreams, made Wei Jia's face look really ugly, with a stinky face, the tiger said: " What's the matter? I don't know if Grandpa is taking a nap at noon?"

"Master, someone from the palace said that His Majesty hastened to call Master to answer."

"Respond?! Who is it? If you tell me to go, will I go?"

Hearing what he said, he obviously didn't wake up.The servant outside the door was silent for a while, not knowing what to say. This silence made Wei Jia wake up all of a sudden, and quickly jumped up from the kang, changing his clothes while saying: "I'll go right away, call the palace to come Wait for me for a while, by the way, don't forget to serve the delicious food and drink."

The servant outside the door seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and said: "You guys understand, I don't dare to neglect the gentlemen who came from the palace, I will take my leave first."

After finishing speaking, the servant hurried out of the backyard with messy and hurried footsteps, Wei Jia changed his clothes, let Xie Jiu, who was awakened by the start, continue to sleep, and hurried out to the palace to meet him.It’s not the little Eunuch Huang who came here today, and there has just been a clean government storm inside and outside the palace. These little servants have not yet been vigilant, and they really dare not accept anything. They just reminded Wei Chi to enter the palace with caution. go.Wei Zhi also understood what others thought, and didn't deliberately make it difficult. He rode a horse and followed the servant into the palace.

"Wei Chi, you are bold!"

As soon as he entered the Lizheng Hall, before he had time to salute, His Majesty Li Er scolded his head and covered his face, and threw a suspected memorial to his face. Wei Jia quickly reached out to catch it, and said in a confused way: "Your Majesty, I don't understand. Can I take a look?"

In the Lizheng Palace, apart from the maids and servants, there were only five people—His Majesty Li Er, Empress Changsun, Wei Zheng, Niu Jinda, and Wei Chi.His Majesty Li Er glared at Wei Jia, Wei Zheng's face was as calm as water, and he couldn't see any thoughts.Niu Jinda had a sneer on his face, full of schadenfreude.Empress Changsun was full of dignity and gentleness. Seeing that His Majesty Li Er was angry, she quickly persuaded him: "Your Majesty, the matter has not been clarified yet. Getting angry is not good for Your Majesty's dragon body. Let's talk about it after you ask Ziyue, okay?"

His Majesty Li Er snorted, pointed at Wei Chi and cursed, "Show me a good look, boy, and tell me what's going on! Otherwise, I'll chop off your head!"

Wei Chi felt apprehensive, touched his neck, and quickly opened the book, and after looking at it twice, he closed it again with a face full of helplessness.His Majesty Li Er snorted angrily: "I finished reading it so soon?"

Wei Chi said pitifully: "Your Majesty, I have no knowledge and cannot understand."

"...Xiao Huangzi, come and explain to the ignorant Mr. Wei."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Little Eunuch Huang stepped forward to take the Shuzuo with a serious expression on his face, ready to explain the meaning to Wei Chi.Wei Chi secretly glanced at the position of His Majesty Li Er, and what he met was His Majesty Li Er's scolding cold eyes, as well as the soft and smiling eyes of Empress Changsun, and he was a little relieved in his heart. It seems that he always His character is good and strong.

After settling his mind, he calmed down and listened to Little Eunuch Huang explaining the content of the Shuzuo to him.It's very simple, it was sent by Yushitai. Someone reported to Yushitai that he colluded with Hu merchants, officials and businessmen, accepted bribes from Hu merchants, harmed the interests of Datang, filled his own pockets, and when the court advocated honesty and integrity, he still broke the law. Severe punishment.

After listening to Wei Chi, he didn't feel surprised, it was just a thought.The ancients said that blessings come from misfortunes, and misfortunes come from blessings.It really is the truth, no, it will be fulfilled immediately.

"Wei Chi, don't you feel surprised or wronged?"

Wei Jia's calmness seemed to make His Majesty Li Er have other thoughts, and the anger dissipated from his face a lot, he just stared at him inscrutablely and asked.Wei Zhi said in a very bachelor way: "Your Majesty, there is nothing to be guilty of. It is true that I have received four boxes of things from Hu Shang Said."

"...Wei Chi, you have disappointed me so much!"

Wei Chi looked innocently at His Majesty Li Er, and then at the others.The proud expression on Niu Jinda's face became more obvious and more dazzling.Empress Changsun and Wei Zheng still looked calm as if they were old gods, they didn't seem to want to kill, they were indeed people who had experienced big scenes.

Wei Jia said: "Your Majesty, this was agreed in private when I signed the agreement with Said. Said is fulfilling the agreement with the minister. He is not considered a bribe. Your Majesty, don't make trouble for others and cultivate a It's not easy for customers."

After saying this, His Majesty Li Er's anger suddenly disappeared. Bai Weijia glanced at him and said, "What weird things are you messing with others again? Say it yourself, so that Yu Shitai will not have to go to you because of your little shit." Work hard, lest Niu Jinda send someone to stay in front of your house just to monitor you!"

Wei Chi chuckled, and sure enough, His Majesty Li Er understood his style of acting, and he had been fooled so much that it was difficult to fool him.Secretly giving the startled Niu Jinda a frightened look, Wei Jia said straightforwardly: "Your Majesty, when we reached an agreement on the purchase of finished medicine with Said, I had agreed with Said in private and asked him to find a way Get some crop seeds and cultivation techniques that we don't have in the Tang Dynasty, this is the return of the minister's help, otherwise the minister will destroy his activities of purchasing ready-made medicines. Your Majesty, this kind of behavior, in a sense, is also regarded as using power for personal gain. Your Majesty, please punish this humble minister."

What can be called cheap and good-looking is the true portrayal of Wei Jia at this moment.Looking at the servant's face, he almost wrote the word proud on his face. The servant still grinned strangely at Niu Jinda's face, which was blue and white, and bowed his hands and saluted: "It's hard work, General Niu, who actually sent someone to Staying at the door of my house, thank you for your hard work, brothers, the weather is quite cold recently, brothers are suffering from the cold, have you not caused the wind and cold? If there is anything good or bad, welcome to the medical officer under our medical school, and I will definitely send it to my brothers The best doctors and nurses, giving everyone the best treatment and care."

"you you……"

Niu Jinda was so angry that his face turned green, but he couldn't say anything, he could only wait for Wei Zhi to hum with anger, almost depressing himself to death.
