    Wenwan only found out after reading the letter.  Of these, only part of the leather belongs to my uncle.  Most of the jewelry was prepared by him, and the others were filial piety from the people in the fiefdom.

    Wen Wan didn¡¯t look very presentable, but the eldest lady was still watching. Twenty people were sent over to help, and it took a long time before the registration was completed.  Those who got the news were very excited.  I heard that there are a lot of fine leathers, jewelry, and clothing materials inside.  How much money does this cost?

    Wenwan looked at the account book and felt very proud.  This is all her money.  This account book also means that she is now the person in charge.

    When Anshi got the news, she immediately lost her composure.  A piece of fine tiger skin in the capital is worth a thousand taels of silver, so it is still a priceless thing.  Seeing that Ping Xiangxi didn't say anything, he immediately said a lot, "Master, look at Shang Qi and Shang Lin, neither Shang Qi nor Shang Lin has a good big sweater. Leather in the capital is extremely expensive. Look, can you ask Wen Wan for it?"  Here are some pieces of leather." Ping Xiangxi didn't nod or object.

    Although she was on guard against Wen Wan, seeing Wen Wan remain silent for several months, so comforting Wen Wan was scaring her.

    That night, Wen Wan heard a message from her mother-in-law.  Wen Wan didn't even see her, so she let Grandma Gu rush away.  What the hell, a greedy woman.  Could it be that she is her mother and has everything she needs.

    The next day, according to what was written on the list, arrangements were made to deliver it to each house.  Uncle Zheng gave two fine white tiger skins, one for the emperor's grandfather and one for the old prime minister.

    "Sir, tell me, Prince Zheng's kindness to Wen Wan is a little too much." The eldest lady got the news and was very puzzled.  This is ten cars worth of stuff.  Usually it is just the younger generation giving New Year gifts to the elders, but now it is reversed.  And even if you really love someone, you just give them something to express your feelings.  This is too much.

    "You think that all those things belong to Prince Zheng. Most of them are paid filial piety by the people in the fiefdom. Otherwise, those ten carts of things are worth ten or twenty thousand taels anyway. You think that Prince Zheng's palace runs a bank. But, come to think of it,  "Prince Zheng is really kind to Wen Wan. He is just like his own daughter. I don't know if Wen Wan will be sad if he finds out."

    "What does this mean?" The eldest lady was very surprised.

    "Why do you think Prince Zheng is so kind to Wen Wan? He is in charge of the fiefdom, which is the emperor's decree. Prince Zheng's kindness to Wen Wan is 50% from the heart and 50% with intention. If Wenwan wasn't with him  Printed from the same mold. If Wen Wan is not the granddaughter of Concubine Su, and if Wen Wan's uncle is not the Prime Minister, it is impossible for Prince Zheng to be so enthusiastic about Wen Wan." The Duke shook his head.

    "But it's good to have this heart. Moreover, Prince Zheng also followed the trend, and it didn't harm Wen Wan. Anyway, the appearance is there. Others will be suspicious even if he doesn't do anything. Prince Zheng can do this, which shows that he  I am really sincere about this child." The eldest lady didn't find it funny.

    "This kid is just one step away from the Ping family. Fifth, I really don't know what to say about him. For a woman, I really don't know the importance." The Duke of Guo was a little annoyed.

    "Wen Wan is giving gifts in her own name this time. To the outside world, it means that she has established herself in the family. Master, is this all? I said a few words tactfully. She was impatient to listen.  Do you want to talk to her?" The eldest lady hesitated for a while and said worriedly.  She actually wanted to repair the relationship with Wen Wan.

    The Duke smiled bitterly, "I said? The most suitable person is the fifth brother. But if the fifth brother were to say it, it would probably be even worse. Wen Wan and the fifth brother only maintain the superficial relationship between father and daughter. That child is very clever.  "Forget it, it's not our biological daughter anyway. Even if outsiders look at it and say a few words, it's not our fault that the child has a salary and a fiefdom."

    When the emperor got the news, he asked with a smile, "Then the child gave me the tiger skin and two sable skins? Did she get two good skins? Who did you give the other skin to?"

    "There is also a piece of tiger skin given to the prime minister. Except for the emperor and the old prime minister, everyone else's New Year's gifts are the same. Not fancy. Not shabby." The chief steward, Mr. Wen, has a clear family.  When the emperor asked, he immediately answered.

    "It's hard for this child to get good things and still miss me. Let the Ministry of Internal Affairs give some good things to the child to satisfy her filial piety." The old emperor listened.  Although she doesn't care about such a piece of skin, Wen Wan has such a heart.  He was still very comforting.

    In the Prime Minister¡¯s Mansion, Mrs. Su received the New Year¡¯s gift from Wen Wan and saw that there was a tiger skin in it.  Seeing the complete snow-white tiger skin, I sighed, "This skin is really good. You can't buy it in the market if you have money. This child also has a filial heart."

    "I have been looking for someone these days, but there is no news. Unexpectedly, it happened to be delivered. Looking at this material, I can make a big sweater for dad. Then use the wolf skin to make two clothes for dad.  Hand and knee pads and a scarf are rare.Such good material, and then use that mink skin to make me a big sweater.  "Su Xian was quite happy to see it.

    "I made it for you two, but my wife and I are gone. Let's see if we can buy some more. We've already sent someone to look for it. But it's hard to find such good leather," Mrs. Su  It's a pity. If I could find such woolen materials, I would be willing to spend more money.

    Wen Wan looked at the things sent out, and now she was very lucky to have three nuns around her who were proficient in these things.  Otherwise, I will have a headache and give away gifts at every turn.  In my previous life, I had never done anything like this.  The person who gave the gift asked to see Wen Wan, but was rejected by the Duke.  After Wen Wan found out, she said she could meet him in the lobby. The leaders kowtowed to Wen Wan and went back.

    The rest went into the warehouse.  I picked up some other things and gave them to the children in each room.  He also asked Qing Shui to pick up some ordinary leathers and go back to make some winter coats.  Rang took the lynx skin and made a lynx coat for her cheap dad. I guess that woman would have nothing to gossip about.

    When Anshi received the big sweater clothes sent by Wen Wan, her nose almost became crooked.  This damn girl is so smart.  She just said that she won a good thing, but she wouldn't give it to her filial father.  At this moment, a finished lynx grandson coat was given as a gift.  I can't take any advantage.

    "Princess, the emperor has a reward." Wen Wan was pulled and hurried to the front yard.  Not only were she rewarded, but there were also rewards from the Duke's mansion.  Wen Wan knows that usually at the end of the year, other people will have their meritorious deeds, which means that the emperor still remembers his family's contribution.  The emperor rewarded them with one thousand taels of silver.  Take it to the New Year Festival, and everyone worships it like a god.

    Wen Wande's reward is six pieces of fine materials, a set of red gold head jewelry, a set of gemstone head jewelry, and a set of the four treasures of the study.  How can that tiger skin compare to the value of these things?  Look at that set of gemstones, they are worth thousands of gold no matter what.  Wen Wan looked at the reward and felt that this business was extremely cost-effective.

    The four treasures of the study were kept in the room for use. For other things, I took six pieces of materials and made one piece of clothing each. The others were all locked in the warehouse.  I am still growing, and I am wasting too much clothes.

    Wenwan¡¯s two warehouses in Hengfang Pavilion are already full.  Let him clean up another room and use it as a warehouse.  Seeing how hard everyone was working, I took two pieces of ordinary materials sent by King Zheng and made new clothes for the maids around me.  Then I gave some small items to the people below, which made everyone happy for a while.

    The girls in the sewing room also made several sets of clothes for Qingshui.  The clear water makes her look pretty, natural, and more importantly, elegant. Coupled with Grandma Gu's careful teachings in the past half month, she is no longer as timid as when she first came here.  When people come to see you, there shouldn't be any problem.

    Wenwan feels that there are too many people, and she doesn¡¯t do anything, so she feels that she is just doing nothing.  All the second-class maids were driven away to do needlework.  I make clothes for myself every day, and a month ago I started sewing some dolls.  Very cute doll.  Several maids liked it very much after seeing it.  Wen Wan looked at it and felt that these things could be given as gifts.

    It¡¯s the end of the twelfth lunar month soon, and the ancestral temple is finally completed ten days before the new year.  Looking at the brand-new ancestral temple, the patriarch was very pleased that his wish was finally fulfilled.  When he closed his eyes, he could rest in peace.

    On the twenty-seventh day of the New Year, the ancestral temple was opened and took on a new look after renovation.  Originally, women were not allowed to enter the ancestral temple and usually worshiped outside.  But Wen Wan is wearing court clothes. Since she is wearing high-grade court clothes, she can naturally enter the ancestral temple.  Wen Wan went in and paid homage to her ancestors.

    Entering the ancestral hall, I took a closer look. There was a portrait of the ancestor of Ping Guogong. He was wearing a python waist and jade. He also looked suave and talented.  Wen Wan sighed inwardly, it turned out to be the inheritance from her ancestors, no wonder her cheap father could be so handsome.  None of the uncles are bad.

    Seeing the patriarch solemnly writing the words Ping Wenwan, Wen Wan was quite surprised.

    After returning home, her heels and knees were a little swollen, so Grandma Chen quickly applied them with medicine.  Wen Wan looked at it and said that she had become squeamish.  No, it seems that after the New Year, I have to learn two sets of boxing from Xia Ying, and I have to keep exercising every day. I don't ask for anything else, but just to prevent premature death.  If you are like other girls who don't open the door and can't go out, and end up like those young ladies in the house, who get sick at every turn and call the doctor at every turn, then you will be in trouble.

    When Wen Wan hears it, when she hears the news from the clan leader that she has to go to pay homage to her ancestors.  I had a headache. Two days later, and after a lot of tossing and turning, my head became very big.  I touched my knee and estimated that the swelling was still not gone after two days!  Heartbreak plus old wounds.  He asked the maid to make two knee pads and tie them to her knees.  Then you have to be gentler.

    Originally, according to the regulations, Wen Wan was going to the palace to thank the emperor¡¯s grandfather.  Wen Wan handed the sign to the palace and returned it.  But with the previous reward.  Not long after, the emperor's grandfather rewarded him with another five hundred taels of silver.??New Year's money.  He also rewarded her with some food.  Grandma Gu and others were relieved that the emperor had not forgotten the princess.  Grandma Gu told Wen Wan that it was because the emperor's grandfather was considerate of her and did not let her suffer the sin of those pilgrimages.  (To be continued)
