017 The Secret of the Red Sleeves
Drifting Snow Pavilion
"Miss, that's not right...... No, this petal should be embroidered here?
"Miss, it's wrong, this line should be used here......"
"Miss, Miss, you embroidered wrong again, how can you embroider like this......"
……
"Alas, Pearl, I'm not doing it, I'll just say I can't learn, you prefer me to learn, look at my hands are about to be plugged, I think you just want to see my jokes. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Lin Yixue was annoyed and threw the embroidery in her hand on the couch.
"Miss, this is a whim you had to teach the slave a few days ago, and now you are the one who is shouting that you gave up halfway, blame the slave and the maid for teaching badly or you ......"
Hearing Lin Yixue say this, Pearl was so angry that she pouted and was unhappy beside her.
"Okay, okay, I don't blame you, it's your young lady and I don't have talent, right?"
"Let's go and swing in the yard, you come and push me."
Lin Yixue pulled the pearl and began to run into the yard.
In the past few days, Steward Feng has led people to clean up her Drifting Snow Pavilion inside and out, and she has a new look.
The yard was planted with all kinds of rare flowers and plants, and finally at Lin Yixue's request, a swing was set up for her in a corner of the yard.
But Lin Yixue was broken, and most of the day was wasted on this swing.
"Oh, yes, Pearl. Do you think we should go to my father's study one day, saying that we haven't seen Red Sleeves for a long time after coming back and forth to the house. ”
Lin Yixue sat on the swing, remembering that she had seen Red Sleeves for the first time when she returned home, and she had never encountered it again.
Since even Steward Feng is reluctant to say it, it means that Lu's mother's death, maybe there is really something hidden?
The study is where Lu Yuan often stays, maybe you can see any clues in the study?
Maybe Red Sleeves might reveal some useful clues.
"Okay, okay, the slave maid heard that the collection of books in the master's study is no less than the emperor's south study, and the slave and maid also want to have a long experience."
"Also, I happened to look for a few wild histories and the like."
"You say, the girl in the red sleeves is under her father's nose all day long, and she must know something about the past, right?"
Even if you can't find clues, you can take this opportunity to have a good understanding of the current etiquette and local customs, so as not to be laughed at when you go out to socialize in the future.
In the afternoon, Lu Fuzi Moxuan
"Wow! This is my father's study, which is really high-end, atmospheric, and high-grade! ”
Lin Yixue shuttled through the rows of neat bookshelves, looking at the mirror-like floor and quaint room, and sighed sincerely.
"What kind of books are you looking for? Maybe the slave can help? The red-sleeved girl was still dressed in plain clothes, standing aside and asking with a smile.
At this time, there was a faint incense burning in the study, the smoke was curling, elegant and pleasant, and the red sleeves were lined with elegance and refinement, as if the beautiful women who walked out of the picture of the ladies on the wall, and the whole body was full of the fragrance of books.
Incense books, beauties, I think it's the emperor's south study, it's just that!
Whoever walks in can think that this is the study of the richest man in the world, and his unreliable father has really good taste.
"Miss, aren't you looking for a few medical books?"
After being reminded by Pearl from the side, Lin Yixue suddenly realized her gaffe.
Well......, she was fascinated by the red sleeves.
"Oh...... yes, yes, in addition to medical books, please help find a few more books that introduce local customs or wild histories, and I'll go back and flip through them." Lin Yixue reined in and hurriedly agreed.
"Miss, you may not know that there is an unwritten rule in the master's study, that is, only one book can be borrowed at a time, of course, the eldest lady is an exception, but when the master leaves, it is specially arranged, and the eldest lady can bring a few more books back." Redsleeves said with a smile.
"Oh, that's it! That's a trouble for the red-sleeved girl. ”
Lin Yixue actually vaguely knew before: Lu Yuan's study is a special existence in Lu Mansion, it is in the largest courtyard of Lu Mansion, Moxuan, including two large and small study rooms.
The large study room is full of several large bookcases covering all fields of books, and it is said that the collection of books is almost comparable to that of the emperor's southern study;
In the small study is where Lu Yuan privately handles public and private affairs, and it is said that no one in the mansion has ever entered except for the red sleeves.
Of course, Lin Yixue went to the big study this time.
But it was the first time she knew that there was such an unwritten rule in the big study.
It seems that Lu Yuan's unreliable father is actually not too bad for his own daughter-in-law, for example, for her, he is willing to punish his aunt and sister-in-law, and he broke the rules of the study for her.
Thinking of this, Lin Yixue felt a little more comfortable in her heart.
"The medical books are on the second bookshelf over there, and the customs and wild history are on the two bookshelves here."
"Medical books may not be of much help to the slave maid, but the slave and maid can still help pick a few books such as customs and wild history."
"Then it's troublesome for the red-sleeved girl, I'll just pick the medical book myself."
Lin Yixue said that her eyes wandered in a medical book, but it was a pity that everywhere she looked, she felt so familiar. Well, how many medical books did the original owner read.
"What does the eldest lady think of these two books, this one is about the customs and customs of various places, and this wild history was just picked up by the master last month."
Lin Yixue hadn't found a suitable medical book yet, and Red Sleeves had already pulled out two books and handed them over, and it seemed that she knew every book here.
The moment the fingertips touched, Lin Yixue's heart shrank suddenly
Red Sleeves' hands are so cold, and then look at Red Sleeves' face is paler than ordinary people, it is already summer, but she is wearing at least three layers of clothes inside and out, is she sick and uncomfortable?
Lin Yixue picked up the wild history and flipped through it casually: the secret history of the Northern Yan royal family, the reasons for the decline of the Murong family in Western Xia, and the past of the Dongyu royal family......
Yes, there were such gossip books in ancient times, which suited my appetite very much.
Lin Yixue looked at the red sleeves and thanked with a smile:
"It's really good, thank you Redsleeve Girl."
Seeing that Red Sleeves was so dedicated to picking books for herself, Lin Yixue also decided to repay the favor:
"Is the girl in the red sleeves unwell? How can your hands be so cold? ”
"Miss Lao is bothered, but the slave is in good health."
When Red Sleeves heard Lin Yixue's words, a smile froze on his face, and it took him half a day to return to normal.
Lin Yixue was also stunned when she saw Red Sleeves' reaction, you must know that Red Sleeves is not the kind of person who does not have a city government.
Aunt Qin was so sneering and sneering that day, and her red sleeves didn't change her face, could it be that what she asked just now was too abrupt?
"The red-sleeved girl may not know, our eldest lady has read a lot of medical books, and her medical skills are still quite good, and on the way back to Beijing, the young lady also saved the little son of the Li Mansion, or let the eldest lady diagnose your pulse!"
Pearl looked at the scene a little embarrassed, and explained with a smile from the side.
"Oh, the slave and maid congratulate the eldest lady for her success, but the slave and maid's body is really fine, so I won't bother the eldest lady." Red Sleeves politely declined Lin Yixue's enthusiasm again.
"The red-sleeved girl doesn't need to be polite, why don't you let our young lady help you take the lower pulse, what is your illness, the eldest lady will definitely say it very clearly."
"The slave is really not sick......
As Pearl explained again and again, Red Sleeves not only did not feel relieved, but his eyes became more flustered, and even a little hostile.
"Oh, that's right, it looks like I'm overthinking.
The incense burned by the red-sleeved girl here smells good, I wonder if the red-sleeved girl can give me some, and I will also burn it in the house in the morning and evening to improve sleep. ”
Lin Yixue found that the scene suddenly became more and more embarrassing, and quickly changed the topic.
"Miss, wait a minute, the slave will go and get it."
Redsleeve breathed a sigh of relief and turned to go out.
What's the situation?
