Chapter 288
"I have never had the opportunity to repay the life-saving grace, and Zhen Jiang feels uneasy in her heart."
Duan Yu smiled slightly and said: "Miss Zhen, you are too polite. Didn't I say last time that there is no life-saving grace or anything?"
"From now on, we are friends."
"Friends only help each other."
"And I have already heard from Jia Dong that our cooperation is very good, and the Zhen clan's credit is also very good."
"I believe that it won't be long before we meet again."
Hearing Duan Yu's words, Zhen Jiang's beautiful eyes were immediately filled with expectation.
Due to the limitations of the era.
It is very difficult for people from two different commanderies to meet.
If it were an ordinary family, it would take half a year just to travel from Bingzhou to Jizhou to visit someone.
Not to mention the dangers that might be encountered along the way.
Weather changes, human geography.
Maybe before arriving, the person would have died on the road.
So traveling far for people of this era is something almost no one has ever done in their lives.
Not to mention that both people are moving.
When you go to the hometown of the person you want to see, you might not be able to wait for that person to be there.
Therefore, some partings are for a lifetime.
In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the three brothers Liu, Guan, and Zhang were inseparable from beginning to end, but little did they know that after one parting in Jingzhou, the three brothers never met again.
Zhen Jiang nodded hard, her eyes looking forward to the next meeting Duan Yu mentioned.
"Young Master Duan has performed great meritorious service this time, and he will surely soar in the future."
"This little girl will wait for Young Master Duan to be granted an official title in Jizhou."
"If Young Master Duan has the opportunity to go to Jizhou, you must come to Zhongshan; Zhen Jiang... Zhen Jiang will definitely wait for Young Master Duan in Zhongshan."
"Good!" Duan Yu smiled and agreed readily.
At this time, they had already traveled ten miles out of the city.
Seeing someone off for ten miles, the friendship is very deep.
Zhen Jiang had some words she wanted to say, but she didn't open her mouth.
It all turned into expectation in her eyes, remaining on Duan Yu's majestic figure.
"Young Master Duan... Zhen Jiang is leaving." Zhen Jiang looked at Duan Yu, reluctant to part.
The light flashing in those beautiful eyes seemed to be expecting Duan Yu's retention.
But the only response was Duan Yu's smiling nod.
"Jia Dong."
Duan Yu called out to Jia Dong on the carriage behind him.
"Coming, coming!"
Jia Dong, wearing a wide robe on the carriage, turned over and got up, immediately took a brocade box from the carriage, ran all the way to Duan Yu's side, and handed the brocade box to Duan Yu.
"My lord."
"Miss Zhen." Jia Dong greeted Zhen Jiang with a smile.
Jia Dong, as the head of the future commercial department planned by Duan Yu, has had the longest contact with the Zhen clan in terms of business.
He will definitely have to contact more in the future.
So naturally, he became the liaison between the two.
"Jia Dong will visit Jizhou often in the future, and I hope Miss Zhen will take care of him."
"I will also often send letters to Jizhou, which will be delivered by Jia Dong."
Duan Yu handed the red lacquer phoenix-pattern carved sandalwood brocade box he was holding to Zhen Jiang.
"This is for you."
"Open it and see if you like it."
Seeing the brocade box in front of her, a flash of surprise and joy flashed in Zhen Jiang's beautiful eyes.
A pair of snow-white jade hands gently opened the gold lock and opened the brocade box.
Inside the brocade box was a snow-white cloud shoulder.
A cloud shoulder is something placed on both shoulders for warmth.
Generally made of fur.
Ancient people kept warm with hats, forehead bands, ear warmers, and cloud shoulders.
The hat top is decorated on the top of the hat, mostly made of gold, jade, agate, etc.; the forehead band is tied on the forehead, with various styles.
Ear warmers are used for warmth.
The cloud shoulder was originally used to protect the collar, and later gradually evolved into an ornament.
Wealthy families generally use precious animal fur to make cloud shoulders.
Such as sable fur, fox fur, etc.
It is beautiful, keeps warm, and looks luxurious.
The cloud shoulder in the brocade box is made of snow-white fox fur.
There is not a single stray hair on the whole body, all snow-white.
"This snow fox was hunted by me personally and made into a cloud shoulder."
"I heard that the winter in Jizhou is cold, and the Zhen clan is wealthy, so naturally they don't lack gold and silver ornaments."
"Just take it as a token of my heart."
Zhen Jiang bit her lip with her teeth, reached out and stroked the snow-white soft fur, and the affection in her beautiful eyes became more and more intense and could not be melted.
When Duan Yu mentioned hunting it personally, Jia Dong on the side looked a little embarrassed.
Thinking of the first time he saw Zhen Jiang, he was selling fake fox fur hunted by Duan Yu in front of Zhen Jiang.
The little maid standing next to Zhen Jiang rolled her eyes at Jia Dong.
The wind blew, slightly cold.
Although it was May, Bingzhou was not very warm.
Zhen Jiang slowly took the cloud shoulder out of the brocade box and placed it gently on her shoulders.
The maid stepped forward to help Zhen Jiang fasten the buttons.
The snow-white cloud shoulder and the snow-white skirt Zhen Jiang was wearing echoed each other, adding three points of grace and nobility.
Zhen Jiang, with her hands on her waist, bowed to Duan Yu.
"Thinking of you in Zhongshan, just waiting for you to come and bloom..."
After leaving a sentence, Zhen Jiang turned and boarded the carriage with a blushing face.
Duan Yu stood in place, with his hands behind his back, watching the gradually distant Zhen clan caravan and the carriage Zhen Jiang was riding in.
Beside him, Jia Dong also learned Duan Yu's posture, wanting to put on a melancholy look.
But that wretched look, no matter how he learned it, seemed to be far behind.
"My lord, this Miss Zhen clearly has feelings for you, why didn't you take her?"
"If you took Miss Zhen, wouldn't the Zhen clan be under your control?"
"In the future, you wouldn't need to give the Zhen clan so much profit."
"Besides, Miss Zhen is so beautiful."
"My lord, listen, listen to what Miss Zhen said."
"Thinking of you in Zhongshan, just waiting for you to pick... no, it's just waiting for you to bloom..."
"Anyway, the meaning is about the same."
Duan Yu smiled and gave Jia Dong a flick on the forehead.
Jia Dong cried out in pain and covered his head.
"To talk about business, you are a genius."
"But it is limited to business."
"The Zhongshan Zhen clan, a famous family for two thousand shi, a famous family of the Middle Ages, do you think that even if I married Zhen Jiang, I could control the Zhen clan?"
"Too naive."
"Wait until you go to Jizhou and see the Zhen clan, then you will understand."
