Chapter 2: Gifts
At noon the next day, Shen Wenyu came to Qingmeiju again, this time it was Mama Qin guarding the door, she was not there last night, but this morning he heard that the third young master was back, so he was not surprised to see Shen Wenyu. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć Info Qin's mother must be an old man in the house, she always thinks carefully about things, she knows that although the third young master is generous to people on weekdays, he is not easy to mess with, so she did not stop Shen Wenyu, but politely made a gesture to welcome inward, and shouted with a smile towards the house: "Fourth Miss, the third young master is here." ā
Cui'er was pruning flowers and plants in the yard, and when she saw Shen Wenyu coming in, she hurriedly put down the scissors in her hand to greet her, sorted out her makeup with her hands, and said with a smile: "The third young master is here." ā
Shen Jingshu and Ling'er came out of the house, and Shen Wenyu said: "It's good that the snow stops, look at how good the weather is today." ā
After a while, the maid Miaoling entered the courtyard with a red lacquered wooden box in her hand, Shen Wenyu took the box and handed it to Shen Jingshu, who opened it and saw a pair of extremely delicate gilt lily inlaid jade hairpins placed inside.
"It's so pretty, you piggyback on me?" Shen Jingshu took the hairpin in her hand, and the smile in her eyes showed that she liked it very much, although Shen Jingshu usually didn't like to dress up too fancy, but she always liked all kinds of headwear.
"Yes! I know that my sister likes all kinds of headdresses, and seeing this exquisite and elegant, it matches my sister's temperament, so I bought it as a gift for a long goodbye.
"When you say that, my sister has no heart and didn't even prepare a gift for you, but you can't blame me, we are not prepared at all when you come back suddenly." Shen Jingzhu smiled lightly.
"Don't stand here, the weather is very good today, and the slaves and maids have packed up the sunbathing ground in the morning. The slave and maid go and make a pot of tea, and you can sit in the courtyard and have a good chat. Ling'er said and looked at the southwest of the courtyard, the stone pestles were covered with thick blankets, and it was estimated that it was hot at this time, and it must be warm and comfortable to sit on.
After speaking, Ling'er was about to make tea, and Cui'er on the side hurriedly said, "I'll go, I'll make tea." ā
Shen Wenyu hurriedly said no, he still had something to do for a while and left, just stand and say a few words.
Shen Wenyu seemed to be tricky and handed a palm-sized box that was also red to Ling'er's eyes, and smiled slightly: "Give, Ling'er." As he spoke, he opened the box by himself, and inside was a pair of amber eggplant-shaped earrings, simple but exquisite, although it was not more complicated than the hairpin that was given to Shen Jingshu just now, but looking at the handiwork is by no means something that any craftsman can make. What's more, Ling'er is a maid, if it is inappropriate to give the hairpin-like gift just now, it can be seen that Shen Wenyu has also put a lot of thought into this gift.
Ling'er was a little flattered, and the master specially brought gifts to the maid from outside, I am afraid that it is the first time in the history of this Ping'an Mansion.
Cui'er took two steps and saw that the earrings were really beautiful, and turned to Shen Wenyu and said with a smile: "Third Young Master, have you brought gifts to our other minions." ā
Shen Wenyu was stunned and said, "No." ā
Cui'er pouted and said, "The third young master is really eccentric, and this person has only brought a gift to Ling'er, which is really obvious." ā
Shen Wenyu has always talked to the people below and never carried his identity, so those people also like to talk to him, and it is inevitable that they will be neither big nor small after a long time.
Shen Wenyu was suddenly empowered, Cui'er's words reminded him, there is no less intrigue among people than the masters, he was jealous of other maids for the first time he brought a gift to Ling'er, he can't make trouble for Ling'er.
"These earrings are too simple, you can take them and find a craftsman to modify them, and make them more delicate and gorgeous, so that you can wear them for your young lady." Shen Wenyu ignored what Cui'er said, but continued what he had just said to Ling'er. It's just that the earrings he specially brought for Ling'er became for Shen Jingshu.
Shen Jingshu glanced at Cui'er coldly, Cui'er retreated with a red face, and continued to prune the flowers and plants, her eyes swept to this side with her afterglow from time to time.
Ling'er was thinking about whether to accept this gift or not, when Shen Wenyu said this, she suddenly relaxed, happily took the box, and said, "Yes, Third Young Master."
However, Ling'er knew in her heart that this pair of amber eggplant-shaped earrings was indeed brought to him by the third young master, Shen Wenyu. Otherwise, he wouldn't have had to take out the pendant alone.
Shen Jingshu saw all this in her eyes and said, "I look very good, I don't need to retouch, I will put it in the jewelry cabinet in a while." ā
A few days later, Ling'er found an excuse and rewarded Ling'er with the pendant that Shen Wenyu was going to give to Ling'er in front of Cui'er, and gave a better one to Cui'er. First, Ling'er can carry this pair of earrings in a bright light, and secondly, Cui'er's heart will be balanced.
Shen Jingshu couldn't help but sigh, for the sake of you, the master who is a slave, I can be regarded as a broken heart.
But Shen Jingshu never expected that after Cui'er went down, Ling'er would return the earrings to her.
Shen Jingshu was shocked: "Why are you doing this? ā
Ling'er pushed the earrings into Shen Jingshu's hand and said, "Ling'er is just a slave, and Ling'er can't afford the gift of the third young master." ā
After speaking, Ling'er hurriedly walked out of the house, not allowing Shen Jingshu to ask anything else.
It's been half a month since the confinement, and the eldest lady still hasn't sent anyone to ask what she has noticed. Shen Jingshu was a little annoyed, it is said that someone should have come to inform her of something after being grounded for so long, even if it was to ask a few words for the eldest lady, it was better to leave her here and ignore it, it was really a complete grounding.
There is no grounding on weekdays, and Shen Jingshu never likes to go out, but this grounding makes me feel bored.
After the eclipse, Shen Jingshu became more and more bored after copying some "Women's Rings", and she didn't want to stay in the courtyard, but she couldn't get out, so she took a brocade and sat at the door of the outer courtyard, which was also breathable.
After a while, Ling'er took a cloak from the house and put it on Shen Jingshu, and said with concern: "Miss, this door is the coldest, you better warm up the pavilion." ā
Shen Jingshu shook her head, "It's not cold, I'm here to breathe, they're all going out now, Mama Qin, I'll let her rest, you can go play too, I'm grounded, you're free." ā
"Then I'll stay with Miss here."
"What, I'm afraid I'll run away?" Shen Jingshu quipped.
Ling'er snorted and said, "Miss will make fun of the slave." ā
Shen Jingshu wanted to be alone at this time, so she found a reason to send Ling'er outside.
Suddenly, a white fluffy puppy slammed into Shen Jingshu's feet and ran into the inner courtyard, and Shen Jingshu was so frightened that she almost fell off the brocade.
