After Breaking Off My Marriage, I Became A Powerful Minister’s Treasure

Chapter 540 - 540 That's a must



540 That’s a must

Xi Rong agreed.

She smiled. “It’s quite cold in the capital. When we return to the capital for the new year, I’ll also get someone to prepare a heated brick bed for my imperial grandmother and imperial uncle.”

Shi Qingluo said: “If the conditions allow it, it would be better to build a brick bed and a heated wall. The entire house would be especially warm.”

Xi Rong was instantly interested. “How do I do this? ”

Shi Qingluo handed her the drawing that she had already drawn. “Let’s do it this way. You can bring this back to the capital. I’ll draw another one.”

This was originally a blueprint she had prepared for her little husband to build a study room with a heated wall.

Xi Rong took the blueprint and looked at it. “Luoluo, you’re the best!”

The two of them lay on the brick bed and talked, and soon fell asleep together.

It was already afternoon when they woke up.

The two of them put on thick clothes and fur coats before walking out.

Then, he saw Liang Youxiao walk out of another room.

Shi Qingluo and Xi Rong were both stunned. “Why are you here? When did you come back?”

Liang Youxiao looked tanner than before, but his temperament was more mature.

“I just came back today,” he said with a smile, “and then Xi Rui called me here to experience the heated brick bed.

“I was still hesitating about whether I should go back to the capital for the new year before coming back to Heyang County, but in the end, I decided to come to Heyang County before following Xi Rui and the others back to the capital.

“After experiencing the heated brick bed, I realized that I was right,” he said with a smile.

When Shi Qingluo heard this, she knew that this fellow was also going to get his people to learn how to set up a heated brick bed so that he could return to the capital to be filial to his elders.

“Just in time.” I gave Xi Rong a blueprint of the heated brick bed and heated wall. “If you guys need it, go make a copy of it yourself.”

“That’s a must,” Liang Youxiao smiled.

When Xi Rui heard this, he came out of his room. “I want one too!”

This time, even Fei Yuzhe stepped forward. “I want one too.”

In the next few days, the servants that Liang Youxiao and the others brought learned about the heated brick bed, then they couldn’t sit still any further.

As a result, they all suggested that they return to the capital in advance.

With the heated brick beds and heated walls, they could make a big splash in the capital.

Shi Qingluo did not reject them.

She smiled and even prepared some specialties from the northern border for them.

She even prepared more than a dozen newly-made and improved down jackets for each of them.

The style of these jackets was more similar to the robes that everyone wore now.

Previously, Shi Qingluo had asked Xiao Hanzheng to strongly encourage the residents to raise more ducks in their villages, and then they would collect the duck feathers.

The duck feathers had been picked out and washed and dried when the weather was hot.

They were then made into long sleeve down jackets, down vests, and down warm pants.

It had just been completed a few days ago, and Shi Qingluo had come to send Xi Rui, Liang Youxiao, and Xi Rong off today in a blue down jacket.

“In this bag, there are two down jackets, two down waistcoats, and down warm pants for each of you.”

“If you feel cold in the carriage, you can take out a down jacket and put it on.”

Shi Qingluo handed each of them a large bag.

Xi Rong immediately opened her bag, took out a bright red down jacket, and put it on. “I’ll try it on now.”

Xi Rui and Liang Youxiao did the same. They both took out their own jackets and put them on.

It was a little cold when they first put it on, but after a moment, they found that the down jacket was particularly warm.

Liang Youxiao adjusted his down jacket. “As expected of Qingluo. Even the clothes she makes are so warm.”

Xi Rui did as he was told. “If I bring this down jacket back, my grandfather will definitely like it.”

His old master was afraid of going out in winter. If he had a down jacket and down pants, he would probably like to go out.

“That’s right, that’s right,” Liang Youxiao chimed in.

“My grandfather would be very happy.”

He could go out and show off again.

Shi Qingluo chuckled. “That’s why I’ve prepared a dozen down jackets for each of you. You can take them home and distribute them.”

The three of them beamed with joy. “As expected, Qingluo is still the best to us.”

Due to his busy schedule in Heyang County, Fei Yuzhe planned to return to the capital in two months, just in time for the new year.

Hence, he passed the down jacket and blueprints of the heated brick bed and heated wall that Shi Qingluo had prepared for him to Liang Youxiao and asked him to help bring them back to the Fei family.

Shi Qingluo turned to Xi Rui and Liang Youxiao and asked, “Are you guys still coming after the new year?”

“I’ll definitely come back.” After Xi Rong came to the northern border, she took in many homeless or abused girls as female soldiers.

She had specially built a campsite in the suburbs of Heyang County for the women to train and live.

When she returned to the capital, she had asked Shi Qingluo to help her look after them.

Therefore, she was going to come back to continue developing her career after the new year.

She added, “After spending the new year with my imperial grandmother and imperial uncle, I’ll come back immediately.”

Heyang County was more interesting.

If it wasn’t for the fact that she had to go back to spend the new year with her imperial grandmother and imperial uncle, she wouldn’t even want to return to the capital.

These days, Xi Rui had either been following Xiao Hanzheng and Liang Youxiao to do things, or Shi Qingluo to the villages.

In the beginning, he felt that it was very tough and boring, but gradually he realized that when he got something done and saw the residents’ grateful faces, he actually felt a sense of achievement.

He then followed Shi Qingluo to the villages. At first, he had despised the environment he was in, but he had gradually gotten used to it.

In particular, he also liked to build machinery.

When he had nothing to do, he would go to the workshop to learn from some craftsmen.

In the past few days, because he had to return to the capital and had not followed Shi Qingluo around, he was actually not used to it.

“Then you have to come back!” He said with a smile.

Although it was tougher to stay in Heyang County, his days were indeed more fulfilling than when he was in the capital.

“Heyang County is like my second home now,” Liang Youxiao chuckled. “I’ll definitely come back.

“I’ll go then go from Heyang County to the South when the weather gets warmer.”

He had earned a huge sum of money from selling canned fruit, and it was all thanks to Shi Qingluo.

He had long decided to follow her.

Shi Qingluo nodded. “Alright, be careful on your way back. All of you are welcome to come back after the new year!”

The few of them talked for a while more before they set off back to the capital.

The main reason was that they had been away for so long in their first year, and they missed their loved ones.

They wanted to go back and let everyone see how they had changed.

In addition, if they went back now, they could show off and show off.

This was why they were so eager to go back.

After the three of them left, the county government office was much quieter.

Next, Xiao Hanzheng and Shi Qingluo began to focus on promoting the heated brick bed in the county.

The county government had specially set up a few brick-bed teams, led by the county government’s craftsmen to set up brick beds everywhere.

The county government would pay the workers, and the families who needed this bed would just need to prepare the materials.

The materials were just clay bricks, and the cost was not high.

The richer ones just need to prepare some bricks and provide these workers with three meals a day.

Almost every household in the county had a heated brick bed.

The residents’ homes were much warmer than in previous years and were more grateful to Xiao Hanzheng and his wife.

After that, the brick-bed team went to the nearby villages to help and gradually expanded this to the remote villages.

Thereafter, many from other regions of the northern border knew that a type of heated brick bed existed in Heyang County.

As long as it was placed in a room, it would be especially warm and not expensive.

As a result, those who had the ability to get a heated brick bed asked around and wanted to buy one for their family.

Xiao Hanzheng and Shi Qingluo’s reputation spread again in the northern border.
