Le Lin yawned, and a white breath came out and rose into the sky.

It's a beautiful winter morning.

When I opened the window, I could see that the plane trees, birches, and willows that had lost their leaves were covered with fluffy, shiny silver stripes. The evergreen pines and cypresses in winter and summer are piled up with fluffy and heavy snowballs.

"It's beautiful. ”

She couldn't help but admire from the bottom of her heart.

When she came to the hall, Shi was already waiting for her there.

"Mother?"

Shi lovingly smoothed the collar of her shirt and asked gently, "Are things ready?"

"Hmm. ”

Le Lin ordered some more things to bring into the palace—the portrait she would give to Ah Li later, which had already been rolled up at this time, and she had tied a delicate rose with a crimson silk ribbon, as well as the Poria cake from Yinghu Zhai in the west of the city, and the bamboo shoots from Changjishun, which she had bought with rhubarb and Chuanxiong early this morning, and which were neatly placed in the ivory carved food box.

She turned her head and replied to Shi, "It's all in order." ”

Shi stared at the green pendant on her collar.

Le Lin was wearing a narrow robe with a round collar in the color of duck egg blue today, and she looked very refreshed.

She couldn't help but ask curiously: "Is the color of my body not matching this pendant?"

Shi Shi shook his head, frowned and asked, "Why are you wearing such a pendant?"

"What's wrong?"

"It's a bit of a faux pas. ”

As he spoke, Shi summoned the maidservant Poria and instructed, "Go and get the box of Ding Liu's cabinet." Poria hurriedly took the order and left.

Le Lin smiled: "Mother, this pendant ......"

"This pendant is too shabby," Shi interrupted her and said to herself: "If you want to match the emerald pendant, there are many in the house, why did you choose this?"

"This was given to me by the Queen Mother. ”

"Huh?" Shi's eyes widened in disbelief: "Really?"

"Really. ”

Shi pinched the pendant and looked at it carefully for a moment before letting go.

She said unhappily: "I really can't imagine that even the Queen Mother is such a snobbish person." ”

Le Lin remembered the last time she saw the Queen Mother's demented appearance. She gave herself this gem of slightly inferior quality, perhaps it was just a faint old eye.

So she comforted Shi and said: "The last time I saw her, the Queen Mother was kind to the child, could this pendant have any other meaning?"

Shi Shi thought for a while, and also nodded: "Also, do you want any treasures in the palace of the Queen Mother?" The Marquis of Anguo's Mansion has never been familiar with the Zhao family, let alone any grudges, she is logically unable to commit such a bad thing." ”

However, what is the meaning of this emerald, which is obviously impurities and barely transparent?

Shi and Le Lin couldn't guess anyway.

While their mother and daughter were talking, Poria had already taken the box and handed it to Shi.

Shi opened the box, and there were about four or five rows of mezzanine inside, all neatly stacked with emerald ornaments. She said, "You can pick another one and wear it." ”

Le Lin picked for a moment in the box, and finally chose a hollow bracelet of average color, set with broken emeralds.

"Why did you pick this?" Shi asked with a frown.

Le Lin explained: "If the jewelry I wear is much better than that given by the Queen Mother, isn't that a slap in the face?"

"If the two pieces of jewelry you are wearing are so clumsy, this is a slap in the face of our Hou Mansion. ”

"But ......"

Before she finished speaking, Shi had already chosen an emerald ring for her.

I have to say that Shi's eyes are indeed vicious, and he can see the most crystal clear gem in this box at a glance.

The emerald on this ring is about the size of a thumbnail, about the same size as the Queen Mother, but the color is different.

It was a shocking gem.

Lelin observes it closely.

"It's so pretty!"

Truly breathtakingly beautiful, this gemstone seems to have a special magic that is breathtaking. Even if you open your eyes and look closely, you still can't see a trace of impurities at all, it is such a pure piece.

When you look at it, you don't feel like you're looking at a small gem, but at a clear ocean or a green sky.

In Bianjing, if you have money, emeralds are not difficult to buy.

However, the best emeralds are very rare and cannot be bought with money. The level of emerald in front of you may not be able to buy even if you have money.

When something reaches the point where money can't buy it, its value is naturally even more extraordinary!

Le Lin flipped through the ring and saw that there seemed to be a word engraved on the back of the pure gold ring.

She held the ring up in front of her eyes and looked at it very carefully, only to see that it was engraved with the word "Cui".

In this era, it is really rare to be able to engrave such tiny characters.

"Why is there a 'green' word here?" asked Le Lin.

"I heard that your grandmother's name has the word 'emerald' in it. ”

"So, these are all pieces of jewelry that my grandmother handed down?"

"Well," Shi nodded, "all, all of them were given to your grandmother by your grandfather." ”

Le Lin rummaged through the jewelry in the box, and almost every piece had the word "Cui" engraved in the subtleties. She sighed: "It's really only an envy of mandarin ducks and not an immortal." ”

Shi picked up the bracelet that Le Lin had just picked up, and said in confusion: "How can there be such inferior goods here?"

"It can't be said to be inferior," Le Lin took the bracelet, compared it to the pendant around her neck, and said: "If you just talk about the color, the gravel on this bracelet is closer to the one given by the Queen Mother." ”

It's all very pure green.

She looked at it from several angles and found that the bracelet was not engraved with the word "Cui" - perhaps the color was so bad that her grandfather couldn't handle it?

Shi took back the bracelet in Le Lin's hand, handed it to Poria on the side, and said, "Put it in Gengqi's cabinet." “

She turned her head again and said to Le Lin resolutely: "No matter how down-and-out the Marquis of Anguo's Mansion is, my mother will not allow you to wear those things that are not in the stream, you either don't wear them, since you want to wear them, you have to choose the best." ”

Le Lin thought that this ring was too flamboyant, but she couldn't resist the temptation of this dazzling blue, and finally put it on the middle finger of her right hand.

Shi Shi looked at the drip and urged, "The hour is almost there, you should go." ”

"Hmmm......"

……

The snow was falling in the morning light, and Le Lin walked in the silent corridor of the palace, as if she could hear the sound of snowflakes falling from the sky.

As she walked through the place where there was no corridor, the snowflakes fell on her hair and shoulders, and then melted, and in an instant new snowflakes fell.

By the time she reached the Imperial Garden, a thin layer of snow had accumulated in her hair.

In front of me, there was suddenly a large white expanse of color.

A large open space seems to be covered with a thick white quilt.

Lelin involuntarily took a step forward.

So light, so soft.

It's like stepping on cotton.

Looking up, the snow was fluttering in the air.

It was the white fluff that fell from the angel's wings, the fluffy seeds of the dandelion, the reed flower, the pear blossom.

Dancing and graceful.

Lelin's eyes widened as she stared at the newly hung icicles on the eaves of the cloister, glittering in the sunlight. The whole world seemed to enter a silent world, and she did not want to break this beautiful and sacred moment.

For a long time, for a long time.

She turned and walked back, and suddenly heard someone behind her, "You haven't noticed I'm here after all this time?"
