“Sister Jade, your mother said that there are only eighty-three bamboo flutes in storage, which is far from the required two hundred. I’m afraid we won’t be able to fulfill the order in a month.’
Su Hu returned from Li Xiu’e’s place, looking slightly dejected.
Su Qingluo raised her eyebrows: “How many more bamboos does mother have in stock? Roughly how many more flutes can we make?”
Su Hu said sadly, “There’s not much bamboo left in stock. The cold winter has slowed down the growth of Cuizhu, and many old bamboos have died. We can’t cut down enough suitable bamboos.”
Su Qingluo thought for a moment: “If mother focuses on making flutes, she should be able to make about ten in a month, right?”
Su Hu nodded, “One every three days, more or less.”
Su Qingluo smiled and looked up: “I will help mother make nine more flutes. In total, we will have one hundred. That’s what I’ll tell Brother Luo Zhan. If he really wants them, he’ll take them; if not, then it’s fine.”
“Alright, I’ll tell him that.”
With his daughter’s support, Su Hu was reassured. As he turned around, he looked back and asked with a grin, “Sister Jade, the young master wants to meet you. Do you want to see him?”
“Brother Luo Zhan wants to see me?”
Su Qingluo was surprised, “Why does he want to see me?”
Su Hu’s face turned red, and he laughed awkwardly, “I told him that I can’t make decisions for you and need to ask.”
Su Qingluo couldn’t help but facepalm, “Oh dad, you’re so funny. You’re the head of the family, and we all listen to you. But in front of outsiders, you say that you can’t decide.”
“Hehe.”
Su Hu scratched his nose and laughed foolishly, “I’m used to asking my little lucky doll for her opinion.”
Su Qingluo couldn’t help but laugh as well, “Alright, let’s go see him. Ask him what he wants.”
“Young Master Luo Zhan is a good person, very honest, and never delays our dividend.”
Su Hu had a good impression of Luo Zhan and lifted the curtain, waiting for his daughter to leave the room.
“Grey One, Grey Two, Grey Three, come here.”
Su Qingluo put the Little Prince on the kang and poked her head halfway out of the room, calling the three big dogs.
“Woof woof woof!”
The three big dogs responded and excitedly rushed into the room.
Su Qingluo looked back and smiled at the Little Prince, “Xuan’er, play with Grey One and the others for a while. I’ll be back soon.’
“Mhm, Sister, come back soon.”
The Little Prince hugged Grey One’s fluffy head and nodded obediently.
“Good boy.”
Su Qingluo smiled with relief and followed Su Hu out of the room, heading to the living room.
“Little Qingluo, long time no see, you’ve grown even more beautiful.”
Seeing Su Qingluo, Luo Zhan’s eyes lit up. He put down his teacup and greeted her warmly.
“Hello, Brother Zhan.”
Su Qingluo returned his greeting with a sweet smile, walking forward gracefully to say hello.
“Haha!”
Luo Zhan laughed heartily at her addressing him as brother. He joked, “Every time I see Little Qingluo, I feel ten years younger.”
Su Qingluo smiled, “Brother Zhan looks really young anyway, not much older than my brother.”
“Haha!”
Luo Zhan laughed happily, gesturing generously, “Ciming, bring the gift for
Little Qingluo.”
“Yes, sir.”
The young servant behind Luo Zhan respectfully carried a rectangular brocade box and walked to Su Qingluo’s side.
“Thank you, Brother Zhan.”
Su Qingluo accepted the brocade box graciously and opened it in front of him.
Inside the box was a beautiful green jade flute about two feet long. The jade was translucent and delicate, with smooth round holes, clearly a rare masterpiece.
“Young Master, this jade flute is too valuable. We can’t accept it.”
Su Hu’s face changed slightly, and he looked at Luo Zhan with some surprise.
“Brother Su, it’s just a jade flute.”
Luo Zhan didn’t care, “The bamboo flutes made by Little Qingluo once fetched sky-high prices at a flute competition in Qi Kingdom. They possess sound quality several times better than jade flutes, making a single jade flute nothing in comparison..”
