Zhenfubao waved his hand and the warehouse was full of grain, and the whole family regretted it

Chapter 453 If Gu Sinian Became the Emperor

Madam Gu smiled and said, "I have arranged a few smart servants and maids for you. If you feel that they are not suitable, just tell me."

Gu Sinian paced around the room, then suddenly stopped and asked, "Do you have any embroidery thread? Also, an embroidery frame, an embroidery box, and embroidery needles?"

Madam Gu was startled, with a puzzled look on her face:

"What do you want these for? They're just women's things.

Are you going to give it to someone else?"

Gu Sinian looked calm, just looking at Old Madam Gu quietly without answering.

Seeing this, Madam Gu shook her head slightly and turned to instruct the maid beside her: "As the young master said, prepare a set of these things."

The maid took the order and hurriedly retreated. Not long after, the maid brought the servant and presented the things one by one.

I saw the embroidery frame, which was made of precious sandalwood, with a deep and warm color, and its four legs were carved with intricate peony patterns.

On the embroidery frame, a piece of soft Hangzhou embroidery brocade is stretched, and dark patterns are faintly visible on the snow-white background.

The embroidered box was a small and exquisite lacquerware. On a vermilion background, floral and bird patterns were inlaid with mother-of-pearl. When opened, the interior was exquisitely divided and exuded a faint lacquer fragrance.

The most eye-catching thing was the embroidery thread. The Gu family was indeed a wealthy family, and the embroidery threads they used were all top-quality goods, much better than what Gu Sinian usually used.

Gu Sinian looked at these objects, his eyes lit up slightly, and he seemed somewhat satisfied.

Night fell over the Gu Mansion, and the moonlight was like water, sprinkling on every corner of the courtyard.

After Gu Sinian carefully placed the embroidered items, he came to the courtyard.

With a low shout, Gu Sinian took up his stance, his fists flying, each move powerful and forceful.

His movements were smooth and fluid, and every punch he threw was accompanied by a whistling sound. Sweat gradually soaked his clothes, but it did not affect his concentration at all.

Not far away, General Gu and Madam Gu stood side by side, their faces full of excitement and their eyes full of relief.

General Gu nodded slightly, his eyes following Gu Sinian's figure closely, and said with emotion:

"This Si Nian is really different from other children.

It's rare for someone so young to be both talented in literature and martial arts!

This child has a very good character. At such a young age, he is neither impulsive nor aggressive, and is very calm and composed."

Madam Gu sighed softly, with a hint of complicated emotions in her eyes, and murmured:

"Yes, he looks so much like Qi Guangheng. Every time I see his face, I think of Qi Guangheng's face.

Should we be more careful, or ask him to cover his face from now on?

If the Demon Concubine knew about Si Nian's existence, Si Nian's life would become even more difficult."

General Gu said in a deep voice:

"Madam, you are absolutely right. This matter still requires long-term consideration.

Si Nian has suffered a tragic fate, and we must protect him."

The next morning, Gu Sinian returned to the Lin family and brought a lot of gifts.

Gu Sinian's servant came over with three sets of brushes, inkstones, and paper, and explained with a smile, "These are specially prepared by Madam Gu for the young masters."

Gu Sinian directly gave the pens, ink, paper and inkstone to Lin Song, Lin Bo and Lin Yuan.

He then took out a lacquer box with a vermilion background, inlaid with intricate floral and bird patterns using mother-of-pearl.

Gu Sinian opened the box, revealing a set of small and exquisite pearl head ornaments, each pearl of which was round and full.

Gu Sinian walked up to Lin Wanwan, put the pearl headpiece in her hands, and said, "Wanwan, this is for you."

Lin Wanwan subconsciously declined: "Brother, I... don't want to."

Gu Sinian refused and said seriously, "Why not? This is what my mother gave me. What's mine is yours. From now on, everything I have will be yours."

Lin Wanwan felt a little helpless. She knew in her heart how good Gu Sinian was to her, but if he gave her something without reservation, it would inevitably lead to gossip.

Mrs. Bai looked at Gu Sinian with a smile and said in a gentle tone:

"I know you love Wanwan and want to give her all the good things. This kind of thought is precious.

But these things are given to you by your family, and you should keep them with you.

In this Bianjing, you can't get anywhere without money. These treasures can generate more money for you in the future."

Gu Sinian looked at Master Bai with a confused look on his face and asked, "Money makes money? How does that work? Do I have to buy a shop or a farm?"

Master Bai frowned and said:

"These things originally require someone to teach you step by step. Regarding this aspect, I will let Gu Dongyang teach you.

You must learn how to protect yourself and manage your finances. You have a long way to go, and these are the skills you need to survive."

After all, Gu Sinian is different from ordinary children. He is the emperor's child, and no one can predict how far he will go in the future.

For him, the more he learns, the better.

He not only had to learn how to govern a country, but also had to learn the art of political intrigue and military strategy, and even had to be familiar with the various etiquette norms of the court.

Whether it is a sacrificial ceremony, a court ceremony or diplomatic etiquette, every link must be mastered by heart.

Lin Wanwan shuddered, looking at Gu Sinian's back and muttered, "Grandma, does Brother Sinian really have to learn so many things?"

Madam Bai looked at her and said:

"Do you think being an emperor is so easy?

It would be a good thing for him to learn more now. Your grandfather said that Gu Sinian has the appearance of an emperor, so we must teach him everything we can."

Lin Wanwan chewed an apple and said vaguely:

"If Gu Sinian becomes the emperor, then I will win without any effort, right?

It feels really good.”

The corners of her mouth rose unconsciously, her heart full of joy.

Once Gu Sinian becomes emperor, he will definitely take good care of their family because of the deep affection they have had since childhood.

Now that they are irreconcilable with the Demon Concubine, it is inevitable that they fully support Gu Sinian. When he ascends the throne, it will undoubtedly be a great thing.

After eating and drinking her fill, Mrs. Bai stood up with a smile on her face and said:

"Well, let's go for a walk on the street and see how the Jinxiu Cloth Shop is doing.

Go and see what the gold and silver jewelry in Bianjing looks like."

When Lin Panpan heard about going shopping, her face flushed with excitement. She clapped her hands and shouted, "I want to go, I want to go!"

Mrs. Bai brought everyone to the Jinxiu Silk Shop, only to find that the original shop had been completely renovated.

The store entrance was widened, and the two vermilion solid wooden doors were majestic and eye-catching, with exquisite peony patterns carved on them.

The steps in front of the door were spotlessly clean, with two stone lions placed on both sides.

Walking into the store, the space is very open.

The original shelves were re-arranged and arranged neatly and orderly, filled with various kinds of silks.

Large display pictures of silk samples are hung on the wall for customers to choose from.

Madam Bai looked around, nodded with satisfaction, and said:

“We have brought in quite a lot of fabric this time, so we can take it out for now.

These fabrics are of the finest quality.”
