Chapter 172: The Arrogant Gift List
The carriage drove directly into the front yard, and Zhang Ze and Liu Zhuangtou unloaded the things on the carriage together.
Gu Zhang came out quickly and was stunned by the things piled on the ground, "This - Master Su is too polite."
Zhang Ze smiled: "Master said that he was very grateful for the care of Master Gu's family along the way. This little thing is just a small token of his appreciation."
Gu Zhang hurriedly said, "Brother Zhang, go into the house and have tea."
Zhang Ze waved his hand, "I won't go in. Uncle Gu will say hello to Aunt Chen for me."
"By the way, Master said that there is no need to return the gift. After the New Year, when Master's leg injury is healed, he will come to visit Uncle Gu."
Gu Zhang was anxious. How could he not return the gift? "I wonder where Master Su's house is?"
Zhang Ze smiled, "Master is living in his uncle's house now, which is not very convenient."
Before the Master came, he told not to reveal his identity, so as not to make Uncle Gu's family uncomfortable.
Gu Zhang didn't ask for the place, and dragged Zhang Ze into the house to drink tea.
He whispered to Gu Qing and asked him to find Gu Fei to see if he could find something to give back to Mr. Su as a gift so that Zhang Ze could take it back.
Gu Qing found Gu Fei and said that Gu Fei was anxious. She closed the door and searched in the space for a long time.
Watermelon?
There are in this era, but definitely not in this season. Ordinary people can't eat it. The Marquis' Mansion did eat it once.
Apples are not okay either. There are none here. Besides, she plans to keep apples to grow later.
She didn't want to get into any trouble because of the things in the space.
Finally, her eyes fell on a cardboard box in the space. There were three big words on the outside, Wuliangye.
She opened the cardboard box and took it out. It was in a glass bottle. This was definitely not okay.
Gu Fei ran to her tent and searched for a while. She remembered that she had drunk plum wine for 18 yuan a bottle before. The bottle was made of porcelain. There were two bottles, one pink and one green, with a plum blossom painted on it. She thought it was fun, so she took it home.
After searching for a while, she finally found the two bottles.
Gu Fei took great pains to open the Wuliangye and poured it into the two plum blossom bottles.
Zhang Ze was drinking tea in the main room, and suddenly smelled a scent of wine. He couldn't help but sniff, "What kind of wine is this, it smells so good."
Gu Zhang thought his daughter was tinkering with something, so he didn't say anything.
After a while, Gu Fei came out with two bottles and smiled, "Brother Zhang, this is a little good wine that my father accidentally got in his early years. Please bring it to Mr. Su to taste."
Zhang Ze took it after hesitating for a moment. The wine was too fragrant.
Besides, the wine was brought out by Miss Xiao Fei herself. The young master must be very happy to receive it.
Zhang Ze smiled, "Then I will thank the young lady on behalf of the young master."
"I'll take my leave and come back to bother Uncle Gu another day."
Gu Zhang sent Zhang Ze out the door and watched the carriage go away before turning back.
It was already the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month. Erlang and Sanlang had not gone out to pull the cart these days. They were all squatting in the yard, looking at the New Year gifts sent by Young Master Su.
Gu Sanlang flipped through it for a while and shouted, "Here is another list."
Gu Fei took it. The rich families all had gift lists when giving gifts.
There was a piece of red paper sprinkled with gold, which read: a deer, a roe deer, a pair of rabbits, a pair of suckling pigs, a pair of pheasants, a pair of swans, a bacon, eight smoked ducks, eight pieces of bacon, ten catties of green glutinous rice, ten catties of purple rice, twenty catties of black rice, and twenty catties of fragrant rice.
