Chapter 24: Giving Jewelry

Nothing to do, has always loved to dress up HD Lan will suddenly be so kind?

didn't say to receive, nor did she say no, Xi Yao was always gentle and smiling, just sitting in place, motionless.

This smile is very friendly, but after watching it for a long time, it will inevitably make people creepy.

However, as if she had long been accustomed to it, Red Candle didn't notice the low pressure in the room at all, crossed her hands in front of her, stood firmly behind Xi Yao, and was silent like a statue.

The two girls who were still on a high shelf just now, stiffly holding the tray, suddenly felt very embarrassed, and the arrogance that was still standing was a little unbearable, and for a long time, the hand holding the tray was trembling.

It wasn't until Xi Yao finished up a table of breakfast that Mei Zizi showed her trademark sweet smile again, and the two girls put down the tray with relief. This kind of cold violence is much more terrifying than the direct tantrum of the second lady.

Although, the two girls also talked to Xi Yao several times during the banquet, but Xi Yao just didn't hear anything. In addition to the embarrassment, the two of them could only hold on motionless, not daring to slack off in the slightest.

After all, the tray was full of precious jewelry sent by the second lady, and if they smashed one of them, they couldn't afford to pay for it.

"Red candle, put away the jewelry...... I hope that when you go back, you will bring my gratitude to my sister. Another day, I will personally go to the plum garden to thank you. ”

After bowing down again and again, the two girls ran away without a trace.

In a puff of smoke, even the shadow was gone.

"Sister Bai Ju, I'm new and don't know anything, but haven't you been in the General's Mansion for a long time? Why didn't you even figure out the temper of the eldest lady? It's not that she's a soft persimmon, why do I look more terrible than our second miss when I didn't speak just now? The slightly smaller girl pursed her mouth aggrievedly and complained all the way.

"Where do I know, the original eldest lady is a soft persimmon, who knows what's going on today, convulsions or evil, she dares to put on a face to show the people of Lamei Garden, usually her life is not as good as the first-class girl of Lamei Garden, looking at the second lady of Lamei Garden, she has to call her sister."

"How is that possible? Look at the look in her eyes when she smiled just now, huh...... Looking back, I feel terrible, at first glance it seems to be gentle and easy to bully, but after a long time...... My legs just went limp. ”

"However, don't say it, after this eldest lady came back to life, her temperament seems to have really changed. If you think about it just now, although her face is still as gentle as ever, I don't know why, the things revealed in her eyes always feel different. ”

"Then do you want to tell the second lady about this?"

"This ......" Bai Ju knew that the second miss sent her over to deliver things today, the purpose was not simple, thinking of the words that the second miss gritted her teeth and said yesterday, she knew that the second miss was bound to make a move recently, "I will tell the second miss ......" After making up her mind, thinking back to the smile on Xi Yao's face just now, Bai Ju trembled again.

I thought that it would be terrible enough for my second lady to lose her temper, but I didn't expect that the eldest lady would be like this. It's really not that a family doesn't enter the door, it is estimated that the two are comparable, right?

……

Two large trays of jewelry lay quietly on the table, like two children who no one dared to claim, revealing indescribable sadness.

These add up, even more than what is placed in Xi Yao's jewelry box, the red candle expression is a little worried, the things sent by the second miss will definitely not be goodwill, "Miss, do you look at these jewelry?" ”

Hongxiang happily picked up a string of pearl bracelets, "Miss, the slave maid heard that these are specially ordered by the general to buy them back, and the second lady gave you so much, which shows her intentions......" deliberately bypassed, and did not say bluntly: The general did not give Xi Yao a share, and Hongxiang said so roundly, it can be regarded as a lot of effort.

In fact, it is also understandable that every time Gao Wu comes back from other places, he will bring many rare treasures, but he usually does not have a share of Gao Ying, because in Gao Wu's eyes, this daughter seems to have no zĂ i.

Therefore, habits have become natural, and over time, what he brings back is those copies, from beginning to end, there is no high-definition Ying.

"Oh? Is it? He glanced down at all kinds of jeweled jewelry, but Xi Yao didn't touch it.

Seeing this, Hongxiang was a little anxious, "Yes, Miss, these jewelry are all new styles this year, and the second lady is reluctant to use them, so I brought them all for you, so much ah, you can stay for a few months with the same one a day." ”

"Since it's such a good thing, Hongxiang, I'll count it and put it in the jewelry box to keep it......"

"Yes, Miss is right, you should keep it well, and wait until the big solar term, or the banquet to take it out, wouldn't it be dazzling and glamorous?"

"Well, Hongxiang is right. Then let's do it......" Xi Yao smiled, as bright as a spring flower.

Seeing that the eldest lady finally accepted it, and promised to wear one or two at the banquet, Hongxiang was relieved. finally lived up to the second lady's orders.

And the change in her mood was tightly grasped by Xi Yao.

I guessed that HD Lan sent jewelry for no reason, and seeing Hongxiang like this, Xi Yao also guessed, I'm afraid HD Lan is willing to spend a lot of money this time, and there must be a big trap waiting for her to drill!

Hongxiang happily went into the inner room to count the jewelry and put it in the jewelry box.

Red Candle had a solemn face, "Miss, what do you think?" ”

"After Hongxiang is counted later, you will count it again, and you will invite the oldest mother Wang in the yard to come along. Afterwards, the list and Hongxiang's pair, if there is any difference, report to me in time. ”

"Yes, Miss, Red Candle understands."

Mother Wang is an iron-faced and selfless old man in the entire Gao Mansion, and she is also General Gao's former wet nurse, coupled with her integrity, so she is very respected.

When dispatching the personnel of Cuizhuyuan, in order to show justice, Wang's mother was specially transferred, just to make a show for everyone to see. Let everyone see that she is not abusing Gao Ying, but giving her the best.

Now, I can invite Wang's mother out, which shows the strictness of this matter, Red Candle secretly beat the drum for herself a few times in her heart, and glanced at the inner room with concern, "Miss, that red fragrance ......"

"I've been watching her actions for the past few days, remember, don't be discovered."

"Yes......"

I thought that there would be a follow-up after giving the jewelry, but in the next few days, Gao Gao Lan was calm.

Even when Xi Yao personally went to Lamei Garden to thank him, he passed calmly, and there was no wave.

Despite this, Xi Yao did not relax her vigilance at all, and sure enough, five days after giving the jewelry, the first signs finally appeared......
