Chapter 229 A Gift for Duan Shuhuan
Chapter 229 A Gift for Duan Shuhuan
Not only did his body recover to its peak condition, the food problem was solved, and he also had the two major formulas for glass and cement, and he had accumulated a lot of cement.
A few days ago, good news came back from Master Yuanhui.
It is said that the Buddha blessed Daxia and bestowed Daxia with ten boxes of Buddhist scriptures, more than 6,000 volumes, which immediately made up for the lack of Buddhist teachings in this world.
Once the news spread, neighboring countries sent envoys and valuable gifts, hoping that their eminent monks would come to pay homage to the Buddha.
However, the emperor declined the offer on the grounds that the Buddhist scriptures had not yet been compiled, and promised the envoys of various countries that once the compilation was completed, he would hold a Buddhist meeting and invite monks from all over the world to study Buddhism.
After the envoys of various countries secretly visited and inquired about the matter in various ways, they found that Master Yuanhui had indeed not returned yet. No scriptures were found in Daxiangguo Temple.
They had no choice but to give up, and after leaving valuable gifts, they returned to their own countries.
After receiving a wave of unexpected wealth, the emperor waved his hand and said, "Pass on my order. Let the Ministry of Works take charge and other ministries assist. Use cement materials, gather craftsmen and civilians, and build a Sutra Library in Daxiangguo Temple."
"I obey your order. I will go and convey it now." After saying this, Eunuch Pei happily left and went to convey the order.
After that, the whole capital city became bustling, and young men joined the team to build the Sutra Library.
There’s nothing else to say. It’s because the court promised to provide food.
Everyone worked together and finally built a spacious nine-story Sutra Pagoda on the day when Master Yuanhui returned to the capital with the Buddhist scriptures.
Since then, Master Yuanhui led the monks of Daxia to start a three-year long compilation. Of course, this is a later story, so I won’t mention it here for now.
In Zesheng County, the Gu family arranged all matters concerning the store.
After explaining the follow-up business problems to the caravan robots and Shopkeeper Zhi, as well as Song Renjing's letters and message delivery issues, they prepared to discuss the next step together.
After dinner, before everyone could discuss it, Gu Fu received news from his grandfather.
His consciousness sank into the space, and after seeing it, he smiled, "Second Uncle, when are we going back? We have been out for a long time, and Fuer misses grandpa."
"Then tomorrow, Second Uncle will go and say goodbye to a few friendly shopkeepers. You can also go shopping and buy whatever you want. If nothing unexpected happens, we will go back the day after tomorrow. How about it?" Gu Dajiang said after hearing this. He rarely refused his niece's requests.
"Okay, okay." Gu Fu responded happily.
"Then I will go and say goodbye to Shopkeeper Mei, and give her the clothing designs from this period." Miao also said.
"Then I'll go to the palace to say goodbye." Song Renjing also said, "Sister Fuer, do you want to go with me?" Song Renjing invited.
"Brother Jing, no, Fuer also has his own things to do. Fuer has already bought everything he wanted. Fuer will stay in the store tomorrow and won't go anywhere. You all go and do your own things. After you finish your things, we can go back to the valley." Gu Fu said.
Gu Fu thought about the oil painting in the space villa that he wanted to give to his family. He was still a little short of finishing it, so he could finish it at home tomorrow.
I also want to give Duan Shuhuan a gift, so I need to be alone tomorrow.
Gu Dajiang and Miao knew their niece's abilities, so they smiled and said, "Okay, okay, then it's up to you. You can handle your affairs tomorrow."
Seeing that Gu Dajiang and his wife had agreed, Song Renjing didn't say much. He just thought to himself that he would go and say goodbye to Uncle Li Wang tomorrow and then come back to accompany Sister Fu'er.
"Ajing, when will your people set off tomorrow?" Gu Dajiang asked.
"Second uncle and his men will set out at 1:00 a.m." Song Renjing said.
"Don't worry about the dry food. I'll ask your second aunt and Zhiying to prepare it for them later. They will be able to eat more comfortably on the road." Gu Dajiang said.
"Thank you for your kindness, uncle. But there's no need to trouble your wife and Zhiying. They are used to traveling, and they have already prepared some dry food for the journey." Song Renjing said.
Seeing that Song Renjing was sure, Gu Dajiang didn't insist anymore.
The next morning, the family got up early and went back to their rooms to wash up and rest.
Before going to bed, Gu Fu replied to her grandfather's message, "Grandpa, your favorite granddaughter is expected to return to the valley the day after tomorrow. I miss you~"
In the valley, Grandpa Gu, who was about to go to sleep, fell asleep happily after seeing the news from his granddaughter.
The next morning, Gu Dajiang and Song Renjing woke up almost at the same time. Gu Dajiang accompanied Song Renjing to see off the convoy to the capital.
When we returned to the backyard of the shop, Miao and Gu Fu had already prepared breakfast.
After breakfast, the family went about their business.
Inside the valley, Mr. Gu also said at the breakfast table: "The second son and his wife, Fu'er, and A Jing are expected to return to the valley the day after tomorrow."
"That's great, my daughter is finally coming back." Gu Dahai said excitedly.
"Sister, brother, second uncle and second aunt are coming back!" Little Gu Kang said happily like his father.
"My sister has been out of the valley for a long time this time. I miss her so much, and Ajing too." Gu Yi said.
The other boys also echoed and expressed their longing.
Even Daju and Dabai, who were eating outside, pricked up their ears to listen, and happily quickened their eating speed.
The Gu family's kitchen was immediately filled with a happy atmosphere.
Gu Fu, after his family members had gone to say goodbye, said to Shopkeeper Zhi, "Shopkeeper Zhi, I'm going back to the backyard. If my second uncle and his family come back, please tell Zhi Bao."
Shopkeeper Zhi bowed and saluted, "Yes, Miss."
Gu Fu took Zhibao back to the backyard room, closed the door and entered the space.
Arriving at the Space Villa, Gu Fu said to Zhibao, "Zhibao, send a message to Master Wu and ask him to send over all the images and pictures of his time in Weng County."
"Yes." Zhibao replied. After a few seconds of pausing, he said, "Miss, the transmission has been completed. Do you want to see it now?"
"No need, just transfer it to my computer first."
"Yes." After a pause, "Miss, the transmission is complete."
"Okay, Zhibao, go and have a rest first. Come and call me when my second uncle and the others come back." Gu Fu instructed.
"Yes." Zhibao responded and retreated.
Gu Fu turned on the computer and watched the recording of Weng County from Mr. Wu's perspective. He also watched his first quarrel with Duan Shuhuan. While watching, he recalled every detail of his time in Weng County.
She downloaded the photos taken by Wu Fuzi and the photos captured from the video and made them into a photo magazine.
She made three books in one go, and this was the gift she prepared for Duan Shuhuan.
Although Duan Shuhuan has always appeared strong and open-minded, and appears happy and optimistic, but judging by his attitude towards the war this time, he may not have truly let it go.
If she continued to suppress this emotion, she was afraid that Duan Shuhuan would really have problems over time.
Then she would give him a magazine album of Magistrate Duan. On the one hand, it would be good for him to see the photo album and remind him of the past, reopen the wound and vent the pain that was blocked in his heart.
Secondly, if he is really as open-minded and strong as he appears, then giving him this photo magazine can also ease his feelings of missing her.
