Chapter 21: Returning in the middle of the night
After lunch, the guests were sent out, and when the Qin family received the man's gaze, he didn't leave Xiaomi by his side.
"What the hell is going on today, why is it so out of shape?" After Xiaomi walked away, Luo Qinghai asked dissatisfiedly. His wife knows that there must be something going on today, otherwise she wouldn't be like that.
When he just sent off the guests, the Qin family had already thought of his words, and originally wanted to say that because Luo Qingmei wanted to take Xiaomi over to live, he was reluctant to come. But thinking of being a husband and wife for so many years, he may not believe such a reason.
So, let's stand in the way of the controversy in the morning; "Didn't I see that you all wanted to sell Furong Building, and I wanted to persuade her, but it was useless. I really didn't expect the fifth sister to be so stubborn. ā
Hearing this, Luo Qinghai nodded and sighed; "I can't blame her, we are responsible for a stall of business, and we don't do our best to take care of it. Don't say she's stubborn, even if anyone wants to propose to close the workshop and shop that our family takes care of, I won't agree.
Wait, go back and persuade Gangqiang, she will figure it out in a few days. Don't worry about this matter, after a few days, what you want, your husband will definitely find it for you. ā
Qin's heart was very moved, and he felt that the fifth sister's plan should be told to him, but he was worried that if he knew that it was all Xiaomi's trouble, then he would definitely send Xiaomi's back. After some hesitation, I finally decided not to say anything.
Anyway, there is a chance that there will be no such thing, at most the fifth sister will be a little wronged, and Xiaomi will not be implicated.
"As long as you and the children are well, and the people of our Luo family are well, I will be content." Seeing that there were no outsiders around him, Qin walked to his man's side and said with great satisfaction.
Luo Qinghai listened to his wife's words, and his heart was also touched, and he couldn't help but take his wife's hand, as if he promised word by word; "Of course, it will be good, after working hard for so many years, what we want is to live a peaceful and stable life."
For a whole afternoon, after Xiaomi picked the petals, she went through the extraction process in her mind several times. Looking up at the sun overhead, I suddenly felt that time was passing too slowly. Finally, the sun went down, Luo Bao came back from school, and after having dinner at Qin's side, Luo Bao greeted his mother as a representative, and then led his younger brothers and Xiaomi away.
A few people carried the petals to the workshop, where the workers had already eaten dinner and rested in the house.
In the room, I lit a few more candles this time, and it was very bright. Luo Bao and a few of them gathered around Xiaomi, very excited to watch her roll up her sleeves and busy, listening to her dispatch, taking water and lighting a fire or something.
They had only heard of what they were used for, but they had never seen it with their own eyes. Millet herself was equally excited, putting the petals into a container, pouring in the right amount of water, and lighting the lampstand below.
"Sister, don't worry, even if this doesn't work, don't we have another gift." Luo Hu saw that Xiaomi was very nervous, so he wanted to comfort her. It was millet who sued them, and it was done, so it should be a birthday gift for my mother this year.
Xiaomi stared at the glass jar in front of him intently at this time, watching the water in the container slowly boiling, where could he care about listening to what Luo Hu said, just nodded in response.
Those boys looked at it quite seriously at first, but after watching it for a while, they didn't think they saw anything famous. They felt bored, but they couldn't leave their sister alone, and when they heard crickets outside, they didn't know who mentioned yƬ, so they ran outside to catch crickets.
There was only one millet left in the room, watching the first drop of essential oil that had been cooled down in the tube, and happily wanted to share it with a few boys, only to find that the house was alone at this time. Hey, what the hell are some kids who haven't grown up!
About an hour or so, Luo Bao, who had already entered the house a few times, finally couldn't help but urge Xiaomi to go back.
Millet look at the petals in the basket, there are still half of them, if they are not extracted overnight tonight, the quality of the petals is not good if they are not fresh. She discussed with Luo Bao and asked them to go back first. Luo Bao saw that Xiaomi was very resolute and must get it all done tonight, so after thinking about it, he asked Luo Jun to lead the two younger brothers back to sleep first.
also asked Luo Jun to go to Xiaomi's courtyard, secretly said hello to Chunhong, and said that he would go back later, so that the girl would not be in a hurry to tell her mother again.
"Second brother, you smell it." Millet handed the bottle containing the extracted essential oil to Luo Bao and fanned it with his hand.
"Wow, it smells so good. Isn't this the so-called Rosedew? I had smelled a faint fragrance before, but I didn't expect the contents of the bottle to be so fragrant, Luo Bao was very surprised, and sniffled happily. Well, it's a good gift for my mother.
Millet hurriedly sealed the bottle with a stopper and carefully put it aside; "You can say that, but this one is made of peach blossoms, so it has to be called peach blossom dew. It's okay to give this to the big mom as a gift, but I think it's better to make another gift with this and give it to her. ā
Xiaomi already had some understanding of Qin's preferences, and knew that she didn't like things like hanging sachets on her body. Therefore, Xiaomi thinks it is better to make handmade soap.
"Ah, this thing is so easy to make, huh? My dad just didn't find a craftsman who knew it, so he kept this thing empty. But, how do you know Sister Xiaomi? Luo Bao suddenly remembered and asked.
yes, how could I? Millet blinked and effortlessly began to say what had been prepared for a long time; "I can't remember how I know, but I just made it by feeling. Or maybe somewhere have you seen it before? Or in some book have you seen the steps to do it?
Second brother, you know, I have had a head injury, and I have forgotten a lot of things. ā
Oh, maybe yes, Luo Bao nodded in convincing.
"Second brother, I really can't talk about this matter for the time being." Xiaomi told me uneasily.
Luo Bao is a little confused, this is a good thing, why can't you say it? But since my sister said so, I am an older brother, of course I have to agree. So, Luo Bao nodded vigorously and agreed.
My sister also said that she can't say it to the outside world for the time being, and when another thing is done, she will have to tell her father and mother at that time.
In the middle of the night, I finally extracted all the petals in the basket. Follow Xiaomi's instructions and carefully extinguish the fire. Xiaomi carefully put away the two small porcelain bottles, and only now did he come up with such a little bit! Otherwise, how could this thing be sold so expensive!
With the joy of success, the two left the workshop.
The porter, who had been waiting for the door to close, had already woken up, rubbed his eyes and opened the door, and after the two little owners left, he closed the door in a daze, and then went back to the hut to continue sleeping.
The two of them returned to the house, and the concierge of the house did not sleep because he knew that there were still two little masters who had not returned.
Luo Bao was very sleepy, but he was still very brother-like, and sent Millet back to the yard where she lived first.
"Hey, the two little ancestors are back. The slave and maid beg the two of you, go out to play again, don't be so late, let the uncle and the lady know, how can the slave and the maid deal with it? Chunhong, who was anxiously turning around in the yard, was relieved to see Xiaomi and Luo Bao coming back, and pleaded in a low voice.
Actually, Chunhong didn't think that because the little master came back late, she would be punished. What she was afraid of was that something would happen to the little master outside. But in front of the little master, you can't say such unlucky words.
Luo Bao was very sleepy, too lazy to say anything, waved his hand to Xiaomi, and trotted away.
Here, Narcissus hurriedly wanted to help Millet fetch water to wash, but Millet didn't let him go straight into the house to rest. I didn't feel tired or sleepy just now, but when I came back, my eyelids immediately fought.
The two girls looked at the little master, got into bed, helped blow out the lights, and then went back to the house to sleep. "Narcissus, did you smell it just now, there is a fragrance on the girl's body, it smells so good." Back in the house, Chunhong asked.
Narcissus nodded, indicating that she also smelled it, but she also thought it was strange, this girl didn't use rouge pollen at all? "Is it because the girl has been fiddling with those petals this time?" Narcissus doesn't talk much, but his brain spins fast.
"The petals we pick the most are the ones we pick the most, why can't we smell them on our bodies?" Chunhong muttered as she sniffed her cuffs and hands.
"Sister Chunhong, ask the girl tomorrow morning, won't you know." Narcissus snorted and said, then took off her shoes and clothes and went to bed. Since coming to this yard to do things, this good little master is the first time to toss them, the arms of the two who picked the petals in the morning are sore, and they come back so late at night, making them sleepy and frightened, it is really not used to it!
Thankfully, it's good that I'm back safely. Although the two girls closed their eyes and were about to sleep, they were all entangled in their hearts, whether to tell the eldest lady about it!
Xiaomi, who was lying on the bed, fell asleep, still smiling on her face. Can she not be happy, the first step was actually successful, great, she will definitely not starve to death in this dynasty in the future.
Because I didn't sleep until midnight, the next day, when Xiaomi woke up, the sun outside the window was already high.
I feel that something is wrong today, why are the two girls Chunhong and Narcissus looking a little weird? Xiaomi was not carried away by the joy of the first night, looking at every move, the two girls with abnormal eyes, wondering what was going on?
Was it because the Qin clan knew that he came back too late and scolded them?
"Sister Chunhong, what's wrong? Because I was reprimanded? Millet asked the man who was combing his hair.
"No, no, it's just that Madame doesn't know how to know, so she asked someone to come over in the morning and say, "Girl, please come over after breakfast." Chunhong said a little panicked. "It wasn't the slave who said it, and it wasn't the narcissus." She added.
Oh, maybe it was said by the people in Luo Bao's yard, or maybe the porter said it. I don't know what the situation is over there, Luo Bao will be punished by themselves! Xiaomi sighed, waited for Chunhong to comb her hair, and then got up and walked out.
"Girl, let's have breakfast and go over." Chunhong greeted.
Millet shook her head, she didn't stop, she couldn't hide, but she didn't go over and take a look, how could she be in the mood to eat this breakfast.
Watching Xiaomi walk out of the yard, Chunhong bit her lip and followed Narcissus nervously not knowing what to do. Although the girl is a guest, she has been waiting for a while, and she also has feelings! However, how can they interfere in the affairs of their masters?
The eldest lady likes the girl very much, and she will never punish her, at most she will send it back to the second lady!
Xiaomi was on the road, because I didn't know what the reason for calling me to go, and my heart was also up and down. No matter what, at most get angry and drive yourself away! After figuring it out, her steps quickened. After entering the courtyard of the Qin family, he adjusted his breathing, and when he heard the Qin family greeting himself in the house, he walked in.
As soon as he stepped into the threshold, he saw Luo Bao standing aside with his head down, and Qin Shi sitting on the chair, his expression was very strict, but he didn't see Luo Qinghai......
