Chapter 38 Birthday Present

Before going to bed, Fu Xiaochen had been thinking about what gift to give to Chu Yunqi. He didn't know what everyone in this world would give when they got married.

Carefully recalling today's conversation, Fu Xiaochen suddenly remembered that Chu Yunqi said that his birthday was October 26th, and today is October [-]th, which means that Chu Yunqi's birthday will be in three days' time!Put aside money and everything for the married couple, birthday gifts are the key.

It's just that it will be Chu Yunqi's birthday in a few days, and there is no movement at all in the Prince's Mansion. Logically speaking, invitations should not be widely distributed early, and there should be a big banquet.

Now the question is changed to what is a good birthday gift?Fu Xiaochen thought over and over for a long time but couldn't figure it out. Then he thought that gifts worthy of Chu Yunqi's status must be relatively expensive. How could he have such a large sum of money?

Now I really regret that I didn't bring a big backpack, a lighter, a flashlight, etc. before I came here.Although it was true that Cheng Xiangyun would lend it to him, he always felt embarrassed to borrow a large sum of money from a girl, not to mention that he didn't know when he would be able to pay it back.

Unexpectedly, when he went to work in the Ministry of Industry the next day, the second biggest problem that he had been thinking about last night was solved, because the first wheelchair had been officially manufactured, and Fu Xiaochen's eyes immediately lit up.

"Hey, can the things made by the Ministry of Industry be taken outside?" Fu Xiaochen quietly asked a Yuanwailang who had a good relationship with him, "I mean...take it out and sell it."

"In principle, it's not allowed, but...as long as it's not something from the military, the higher-ups will turn a blind eye. Why, do you have connections?"

"That's right, if you help me draw another blueprint, I'll find someone outside to make some wheelchairs, and I can't do without your benefit."

"That's easy to say."

This kind of thing really needs to be done professionally. It didn't take long for Yuanwailang to draw another design drawing according to the original drawing, but Fu Xiaochen thought that his birthday was only a few days away, so even if he took the design drawing and asked someone to do it It might take three or four days to get out, so I wanted to get the finished wheelchair out to show Mu Ran.

I thought it would be very troublesome to come up with such an obvious goal from the Ministry of Industry, but who knew that after talking to Yuanwailang, he let himself push the wheelchair away, and the other officials of the Ministry of Industry saw it and didn't say anything, could it? Is this the so-called mutual protection of officials?

Because he wanted not to let Chu Yunqi know about this, Fu Xiaochen ordered a servant to wait at the entrance of the engineering department to pass the message to Chu Yunqi, while he took a wheelchair and took a carriage out of the city to find Mu Ran.

Mu Ran was really surprised when he saw the wheelchair, he patted Fu Xiaochen on the shoulder vigorously and said, "Boy, not bad, I didn't expect you to have some brains, and you know how to sell this kind of thing here."

Fu Xiaochen said in his heart that it would be good to get it here for you to use. The genius doctors in TV dramas are often either paralyzed or blind, but he didn't dare to say this. With Mu Ran's unreliability, he always felt that if he said genius doctors, he would usually be blind. If you need a wheelchair to be more stylish, Mu Ran

Definitely sat on it without saying a word.

"Yes, I think of you as soon as I see the wheelchair. I need a sum of money now. How much do you think this wheelchair can sell for?"

"I'll give you 1000 taels first, and the rest will be mine."

...Fu Xiaochen almost knelt down, here he estimated that one tael of silver is equivalent to the currency value of 300 yuan in modern times, and Mu Ran, who said 1000 taels of silver, is a real local tyrant, thinking that he had seen a leader of some religion come here before When he was looking for a doctor, he was cheated by Mu Ran, who was so lucky to spend at least 1000 taels of silver to buy a wheelchair from Mu Ran.

Doctor Mu generously asked a maid to take 1000 taels of silver notes to Fu Xiaochen on the spot. The local tyrant's aura was full, and he asked curiously, "Why do you want such a sum of money all of a sudden? Could it be that some girl fell in love with you?" Want to marry her through the door?"

Fu Xiaochen thought to himself which girl Chu Yunqi was going to marry, so he left after a few perfunctory words, and it was already past lunch time when he returned to the Prince's Mansion, but he didn't expect a young servant to come up to the gate of the mansion to ask "Have you eaten, Mr. Fu? His Royal Highness ordered someone to leave a special meal for you in the side hall. If you move to the side hall without eating, the food is still hot." Fu Xiaochen felt warm when he heard this, Chu Yun Qi really cared about him, and he should understand him better and care about him.

After lunch, Fu Xiaochen went to the study to read the medical books as usual. Chu Yunqi was correcting the memorial in front of the desk. The other party is a prince, so he should have everything, so what should I give as a gift?

Chu Yunqi naturally felt that Fu Xiaochen had been secretly looking at him, and his heart fluttered slightly. Did he finally discover his own charm?On the one hand, he asked calmly and gently, "What? What are you looking at?"

Fu Xiaochen, who was sizing up the other party secretly, was caught and felt a little embarrassed for a while, and asked directly, "Are you short of something?"

"What's the shortcoming?" Why do you think Xiaochen's question sounds a bit strange?

Fu Xiaochen immediately realized his language problem, and quickly corrected him, "I'm asking, do you feel that there is anything missing in your life?"

Chu Yunqi thought about it seriously, and answered honestly, "It seems not."

Sure enough, Fu Xiaochen was slightly disappointed in his heart, and continued to ask, "Then do you have anything you really want?"

Chu Yunqi's expression became subtle in an instant, and the corners of his mouth slightly curled up, "Yes."

"What is it?" Fu Xiaochen's eyes lit up immediately

"I can't tell you yet."

... What do you mean you can't tell me now, what does Chu Yunqi want?Fu Xiaochen spent the whole afternoon posting medical books, but he couldn't figure out what Chu Yunqi wanted, and he didn't know what he wanted to give him. He wanted to go over and ask Cheng Xiangyun. Girls should know more about gifts, and felt that It's better to think for yourself. I struggled all afternoon, and the medical book stayed on that page and never turned it over.

Chu Yunqi looked at Fu Xiaochen's medical book that stayed on that page from the very beginning, and couldn't help but think about it. Xiaochen's behavior today is indeed a bit strange. I heard from the servant in the morning that he brought a wooden chair early to find Mu Ran. In the afternoon, I have been tentatively asking myself what I want. Is there any connection between them that I haven't noticed?

Fu Xiaochen absentmindedly read the medical books all afternoon, and when he saw Chu Yunteng at dinner time, he realized that he still has a younger brother. He should know what Chu Yunqi likes.

After dinner, Fu Xiaochen saw Chu Yunqi went to the study, and quickly pulled Chu Yunteng aside and asked, "Hey, do you know what your brother likes?"

"My brother? He likes to educate me."

"...Anything else? I mean, do you have any hobbies or hobbies?"

"What I like, don't tell me, I really don't know what my brother likes, it seems that he feels the same about everything, it's a hobby, I know he usually practices swords and writing, he seems to like it a lot Poems and songs, I can write two poems if I have nothing to do, and I don’t know if it’s a hobby.”

... Asking is the same as not asking, Fu Xiaochen is a little depressed, and he knows all this.If Chu Yunqi likes to play the piano, he will buy him a Guqin as a gift, if he likes to drink, he will buy him an altar of fine wine as a gift, if he likes to fight crickets, no, how could he have such a boring hobby.Do you want to send me a sword?I always feel that it is not good to give someone a sword on their birthday, not to mention that famous swords are hard to come by, and I am afraid they cannot be bought with 1000 taels of silver.

Writing... Poems and songs?Fu Xiaochen had a sudden thought and decided it was it.

Chu Yunqi was a little depressed, because Fu Xiaochen went out again this afternoon, so he quickly sent Zhaoying to follow up, and told him not only to protect, but also to hear every word of the conversation between the two.

As a result, the news reported by Zhaoying was that the other party did not go to Wangxian Tower, but wandered around a few streets, entered many shops selling the Four Treasures of the Study, and came out without buying anything.It's just that I stayed in the last shop named Wenmoxuan for a little longer, and discussed a few words with the boss pointing to a brush, saying that I wanted to engrave characters.

Chu Yunqi thought about it for a long time and didn't know what Fu Xiaochen was going to do, so he could only suppress his curiosity and wait until he came back to ask him, "Did you go out again this afternoon?" Unexpectedly, the other party blushed and said "Yes", and asked again When he was shopping, Fu Xiaochen's face turned even redder, and he said falteringly, "I didn't see anything, I just strolled around."

Looking at the attitude of the other party, I always feel like a young man is secretly buying something for his sweetheart. Is it to give Cheng Xiangyun a token of love?Because that woman is good at poetry, so I engraved some words of love on the brush and gave it to her?

Thinking of this possibility, Chu Yunqi's heart immediately became turbulent. Damn it, have they progressed to this point?

Obviously he felt that the way Fu Xiaochen looked at him had changed recently, and the relationship between them was getting closer and closer. He couldn't wait like this any longer. If he kept waiting, Fu Xiaochen would be taken away from him sooner or later. Now is the right time to be honest about it all.

Tomorrow is a holiday, so it is a good opportunity to test it out.
