The Farmer‘s Eldest Daughter Has a Spatial Pocket

Chapter 1054: The Origin of the Handkerchief

Editor: Henyee Translations

Ever since he took the handkerchief from Madam Du, Shao Qingyuan had handed it to her.

Gu Yundong had always kept important things in her space. The handkerchief was taken out of her space with the help of her sleeve.

She handed it to Peng Zhongfei directly. “Young Master Peng, your family runs a cloth shop, so you must be very familiar with fabric. Coincidentally, I just got a piece of fabric not long ago. I think this material is very good and feels very comfortable to touch. I want to ask Young Master Peng, do you sell this material in your cloth shop?”

Peng Zhongfei secretly heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that. Luckily, it wasn’t a big favor.

Although he was a profligate son, he still had to manage his own business. Familiarizing himself with fabric was the most basic common sense. Therefore, Peng Zhongfei took the handkerchief confidently.

“Let me see?”

...

When he touched it, he felt that the material was indeed not bad.

But…

Peng Zhongfei frowned and looked at it carefully. Then, his face turned red.

Gu Yundong asked, “Young Master Peng, do you know it?”

“Don’t be hasty. I haven’t checked it carefully.” Peng Zhongfei coughed lightly. He stood up and walked to the window. He looked at the light outside carefully twice.

No one knew if he had figured it out or not, but he quickly sat back at the table and rubbed the handkerchief with both hands.

Gu Yundong was speechless. Hey.

Fortunately, he only rubbed it twice.

However, Peng Zhongfei used his nails to scratch it twice.

Gu Yundong could not take it anymore. She suddenly stood up, pulled his hand away, and retracted the handkerchief.

She looked at it like it was a treasure. Thankfully, it wasn’t broken, but there were traces.

Gu Yundong looked at Peng Zhongfei angrily. “Do you recognize it or not? If you don’t, don’t ruin it for me, okay?”

Peng Zhongfei immediately nodded. “Yes, of course.”

Gu Yundong, Liu Wei, and Tao Yan looked at him suspiciously. It took him so long to recognize it.

“I really recognize it.” Peng Zhongfei was a little anxious. “I’ve seen this material before, but our cloth shop doesn’t have it. It’s not just our cloth shop. I reckon even the prefectural city doesn’t have it. This material is fabric from the Qiu Kingdom. It’s usually a present to our country. Therefore, there definitely isn’t much of this. Basically, it’s bestowed to the concubines or high-ranking officials by the emperor after he obtained it.”

Gu Yundong was stunned. Materials from the royal palace? No way?

“So you’re saying that only those noble families in the royal palace or the capital have it?” Was Brother Shao’s identity so impressive?

“That’s not true. There are also some among the commoners, but they’re very few. It’s definitely unavailable in shops.” Although it was offered by the Qiu Kingdom, the fabric that entered Dajin was basically used by the emperor to reward the concubines and officials.

However, the Qiu Kingdom also had business dealings with Dajin. If the commoners had the financial ability, it was not surprising for them to obtain this fabric. However, they definitely could not sell it. Otherwise, they would be courting death.

“Are you sure?”

Peng Zhongfei nodded vigorously. He was very certain.

He had seen it once before when he followed his father to the capital. There was too little such fabric to sell.

Gu Yundong was a little dumbfounded. So, the scope was still very wide. The high-ranking officials and nobles in the capital had them, and so did the concubines and civilians.

Where could she start looking? Also, it was unlikely that Old Man Li would go to the capital, right?

However, she was certain of one thing.
