Tang Dynasty good brother

Chapter 143 Gifts
Qin Hao felt dumbfounded at this moment, and said, "Master, I am the only disciple of Master, and I don't have a father, so Master and I are no different from father and son, and you are no different from my mother, as a son Buying something for parents, can that be called a gift?"

Mrs. Pei was stunned for a moment, but didn't know what to say to refute for a moment, she just smiled and said: "You child, what do you bring, your master and I are poor, and we don't need good things, you should take them back. "

Qin Hao secretly complained, if the Pei family in Hedong is also considered poor, we will not be able to survive.

Qin Hao said with a smile: "Teacher's wife was joking, a little bit of care is self-made, and it's not worth much money. Don't look at the expensive ones outside, but the cost is extremely low. Please accept it."

As he said that, he took out a large box of facial masks from his bag and sent it up, saying: "May my wife be young forever, every day."

This mask has been sold in Chang'an a long time ago. With Pei's status, it is impossible not to know what it is. I heard that all the ladies in Chang'an City are crazy for a mask. Money can't buy this.

As a woman, Mrs. Pei is naturally yearning for this thing, but after all, their family is 'poor', how can there be any reason for this thing?At this time, when Qin Hao took it out, his eyes glistened, but he hesitated even more.

Qin Hao said: "Miss, you can just use it. I taught His Royal Highness to make this thing. The materials are actually very cheap. If you are interested in it, it doesn't matter if you tell me. I have discussed it with the Xue family. Sooner or later, this mask shop will also open in Chang'an, so it might as well be under the name of senior brother."

Mrs. Pei frowned again when she heard the words, and said, "No! My Wei family is an upright family, and I will not touch these copper-smelling things."

Qin Hao said with a smile: "Alright, let's hang it on the apprentice."

Then he said: "Senior brother, I have heard that my senior brother is good at diction, so I have something to give you."

As he said that, Qin Hao took out a set of four treasures of the study and said, "Brother, look at this pen. The pen holder is made of rhino horn that Mr. Pei Jupei managed to trade in the Western Regions. After the war at the end of the Sui Dynasty, the Central Plains and the Western Regions were cut off. I have seen such a long rhinoceros horn before, and I heard that Mr. Pei and Senior Brother are still relatives, so if this thing falls into the hands of Senior Brother, it can be regarded as the rightful owner."

Wei Zheng's son is called Wei Shuyu, because Wei Zheng got married late, so even though he is the eldest son, he is a little younger than Qin Hao, the most out-of-the-ordinary age, normally he would have a problem with Wei Zheng boasting about Qin Hao, but when he saw him This pen was happily opened, and Qin Hao was regarded as a relative in an instant, holding the whole set of the four treasures of the study and couldn't put it down.

Qin Hao's set of the Four Treasures of the Study has a lot of history, and the inkstone has Wang Xizhi's inscription on it. Even in the Tang Dynasty, it was a priceless treasure, and it is not a small thing to use this thing as a meeting gift.

"Yu'er, don't be presumptuous, let it go."

"Mother, Brother Qin is from our own family. What our family prepares for our own family, can that be called a gift?"

Qin Hao also said: "Master, our family is a family of poets and books. Such elegant things will not stain the reputation of Master. If you don't accept them, the apprentice will have an opinion."

Mrs. Pei thought for a while, then sighed and said, "Alright, Hao'er, Master knows that you are capable and can make money, but your master has been used to being poor all his life, so don't let others chew his tongue."

Qin Hao said: "The filial piety of our own disciples, who dares to chew their tongues."

Mrs. Pei smiled, turned the topic around, and said: "You can pick your time, and you came here just in time for a meal. Is there anything wrong with coming to see your master?"

"Hehe, it's nothing. My apprentice Luoyang has almost explained that I want to come to Chang'an to open a branch of the Qing Gang. By the way, I will see if the saint will reward me as a small official. I am not familiar with Chang'an city. Yes, naturally I can only come to the master."

Pei raised her eyebrows and asked, "Are you going to stay?"

Qin Hao said with a smile: "Yes, I'm afraid I will bother my teacher temporarily until I find a suitable house."

Pei's complexion changed, but he said with a smile: "This child actually speaks two different languages. The family has nothing to bother you. I've been tired for a few days. It's just right, try the master's handicraft, Yu'er, you Accompany me, I'll go to the back kitchen to see if dinner is ready."

After saying that, Mrs. Pei got up and left, but Wei Shuyu still couldn't put it down holding the four treasures of the study, and said to Qin Hao: "Brother Qin, my family is poor, I'm laughing at you."

Qin Hao said with a smile: "My Green Gang has made a lot of money. In addition, I helped the two princes build houses in Luoyang, and I am also a part of it. If necessary, I can pay for the repairs."

Wei Shuyu said: "Forget it, my mother won't agree, she always said that diligence and thrift are virtues, you didn't see that our family is poor, even mice don't want to come."

Qin Hao said with a smile: "There is a good wife in the family, and there will be no troubles. The teacher's mother comes from a rich family, but she is willing to be poor. She can still guard the teacher and remind him not to forget the original intention. That's why our family has such a famous name."

Wei Shuyu smiled wryly, and didn't say anything. Everyone knows what's going on with some words, but it's not appropriate to say them.

Qin Hao said with a smile: "Brother Shuyu can be a companion with me in the future, and I can be regarded as a family man. Sometimes we men have no money in our pockets, so it's not hard to go out and talk."

"Okay, just don't let my mother know about this."

At this time, I heard outside said: "I don't want your mother to know anything."

Pushing the door and coming in, it wasn't Wei Zheng, Wei Shuyu pretended to be silly and laughed a few times, trying to get past him, but Wei Zheng ignored him and said to Qin Hao, "You came to Chang'an, but even I don't know about it, the secrecy work is very good. "

Qin Hao said with a smile: "Isn't this for low-key, low-key."

As he said that, Qin Hao took out a gift and said: "The apprentice is not what it used to be. I have been apprenticed to a teacher for so long, but I haven't even given the ceremony of apprenticeship seriously. This is from the villa in Luoyang Development Zone. There is a house deed, and my disciple deliberately left one for the master to use for retirement in the future."

Wei Zheng said with a smile: "Luoyang Development Zone? You are a big hand. I heard that there are already 50 rooms in that place. You didn't let it out, but you came to honor me."

Qin Hao said with a smile: "You can't calculate it like this. This Luoyang Development Zone was built under your nose, Master. You can tell how much it costs. In fact, this house is not worth a lot of money, just a little thought. "

Wei Shuyu laughed from the side: "Brother Qin, your apprenticeship ceremony is too precious. My father is such a poor man, what would it be if he accepted it?"

Unexpectedly, Wei Zheng smiled and said: "Put it away, the house will be yours from now on, don't let your mother know it, you don't need to see outsiders, and if you need money in the future, just tell him this, that's it." The boy has a lot of money, all of which are earned under my nose."

Even Qin Hao was quite surprised now, he didn't expect Wei Zheng to be so straightforward.

Wei Zheng said, "What's the embarrassment of taking your things? Since your father is gone, you will be my own child from now on. It's just your teacher's wife who comes from a rich family. If you follow me, you don't want to eat or use it. It’s just a matter of reputation. Sometimes it’s unavoidable to do too much. It’s suspected of trying to gain fame. I’ve never paid much attention to this kind of thing. In this world, some people seek power and others seek profit. Naturally, there are also people who seek fame. After all, it’s not a bad thing. Just let her be happy, I can't spend your money anymore, but you can help my son."

Qin Hao said: "That's that, that's it, Mrs. Master likes fame, so it's easier to handle, apprentice..."

But Wei Zheng stretched out his hand and said: "Hao'er, the master will not be polite to you with the money you earn yourself, but those tongues under your hands do not belong to you completely, they should be real national weapons, such a dignified national weapon, It must not be used in things like our family's self-interest, understand? Your wife wants to gain fame, so you let her do it herself. I am in charge of the family, so I will naturally cooperate with her, but the Heavy weapon, don't touch it, understand?"

Qin Hao smiled and said, "Master, you really distinguish between public and private."
