Mid-Autumn Festival, and just finished with the harvest, the streets were full of people who came out to buy things for the Mid-Autumn Festival. Many young masters and students of aristocratic families were also faked and prepared to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the capital. Today was a rare day where there was no curfew, allowing him to linger outside and admire the capital …
Night scene.
At this moment, several large ships were docked at the dock. Wearing the clothes of the 'Xing Shun' Ship Marking ', the sailors carefully moved the things on the boats to the shore.
Those who had originally seen these large ships were only slightly curious, but upon seeing the items that were being transported down from the ships, they couldn't help but stare with wide eyes.
"Then... "What kind of tree is that? It looks like a laurel tree from so far away, but the color of the osmanthus flowers is actually orange?"
"It's the red dandelion, the color is really beautiful. Whose family is it that has such a large sum of money to use ships to transport the red dandelion to the capital?"
A bunch of cinnabar dansi was carefully being carried down from the boat and placed on both sides of the dock. The orange-red flowers were incomparably beautiful, and under the cover of the green leaves, they attracted the attention of many people.
The news spread like wildfire, causing more and more people to come to watch the show.
When Senior Servant Qi brought her servants to the pier, they were shocked by the surrounding crowd of onlookers. It could be said that there was practically no water in the surrounding area. Just what rare thing had they brought here that could attract so many people?
Jin Lan stood at the side with an anxious expression. "Senior Servant Qi, quickly send someone to retrieve this item. After all, it was brought all the way here for Miss, it can't be damaged in the slightest."
"There are too many people here..."
At this moment, someone shouted, "Those in front, move out of the way. Someone from the main house is moving."
Everyone had long been curious as to who was the one who had made such a big move. Upon hearing the host's arrival, all of them immediately looked over.
"Is that the Su Clan?"
"No wonder he could make such a big move, Red Sand Dandelion. Furthermore, it is so tall, and its flowers are so lush and colorful. The cost of carrying it from the south of the river to the south is not little at all."
"Who doesn't? In the past, during the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Su Clan has never made such a big move. Speaking of it, they really do have a deep foundation. This is probably the first time that they have sent cinnabar dans from Jiangnan to the capital, right?"
"Anyway, I've never heard of it before … For an ordinary eunuch's house, it would be good if they could get a potted plant or two. This is a large tree that has already grown into a forest. It will take them at least ten years to grow up. " Seeing that the crowd opened up a path, Jin Lan quickly aligned with the mama and said, "That's great. The path is open. Please get someone to help us move back the trees and flowers." Speaking of which, Steward Qin was indeed considerate. Last year, Miss mentioned that it would be great if she could appreciate that red sand dandelion.
The steward then sent someone to plant a few stalks in the embroidered garden. Originally, he thought that he would come to the capital this year and that he would have no chance of meeting you again, but who would have thought that he would actually send someone to transport the osmanthus tree over from Ziling City. There were quite a few people surrounding them. When they heard someone call the main house over, everyone's gazes focused on Jin Lan, Senior Servant Qi, and the rest, and felt that something wasn't right: Steward Qin, Jin Yu Garden, Ziling City … Why did it sound like these osmanthus trees were not bought by the Su family?!
On the contrary, it looked like someone had specifically sent it to the newly returned Su Clan Mistress?
Someone could not contain their curiosity and asked the boatman from Xinshun Shipping Company, who was guarding the osmanthus trees, "Are these osmanthus trees for the Su Clan's Young Clerk?"
The sailor could not react in time and honestly shook his head. "It is for Lady Mu."
"Miss Mu? Isn't that the Su Family's Young Cousin? The owner of the Nebula Market and the Apothecary Guild, is that right? "
"Ah, it is for Lady Dong Family's Mu."
Upon hearing this, many people inwardly exclaimed in admiration. This was such a big investment, truly a big one! However, four ships were used to transport the Scarlet Cinnamon, and there were three more following!
"The other two ships behind also have cinnabar dandelion?"
The boatman shook his head. "That's not it. Those two boats are carrying gifts given to Miss Mu by the citizens of Ziling City."
"The commoners gave it to Lady Mu?" Hmm, isn't this the end of the Autumn Harvest? As the commoners were worried about Lady Mu, they sent everyone some food and fruits. However, many things were inconvenient to transport and the boat could not hold them, so they only brought half of them. Our masters were scolded because of this.
The ship is too small. "
Looking at the boatman's honest face, the young master who was speaking at the side sized up the big ships and couldn't help but twitch his mouth. If this boat was a little bigger, I'm afraid it wouldn't be able to escape on the river. He really didn't know what to say …
With the previous experience of transporting Mu Yunyao's luggage, this time when Qi mama went out, she specially brought extra people with her, just that she was afraid that there wouldn't be enough people, but now it seemed like she still brought less people with her. While instructing people to move the things, she also ordered people to return to the residence to report the matter to the First Wife.
The other three boats behind them ate very deep. The food on them must be very heavy. This time, they were going to pull all the servants in the mansion over.
When the first wife heard the news, she could not maintain her smile. "Bringing the people from the East Branch over, and it's still not enough. Did he move all of Tomb City over?" The servant who was responsible for the reply said fearfully, "Reporting to Madam, there are some osmanthus trees on the boat. I heard that there are also gifts from the citizens of Ziling City. There are a total of three large ships, and even the pier is full.
If we continue to delay, there will be more people on the streets in the evening. It's not easy to transport goods in a crowded place. "
The First Wife closed her palms as a cold glint flashed across her eyes. "Then send someone to deliver the wedding gift quickly. We can't allow others to send a gift to our doorstep, yet we don't have the manpower to move back. Isn't this a joke?"
"Yes, then this servant will go to the west yard to borrow some men."
The first lady waved her hands irritably. "Go on." Last time, there were not enough people to transport the luggage. After running a few times, they finally managed to move everything back to the mansion, which was already a joke for the people of the capital, but now, it was being seen again. Furthermore, the situation seemed to be even more serious than last time.
