Chapter 60: The Flower Market
Wang Manqing threw Li Wan an ambiguous look, touched her hand and said, "Slender hand ......"
Li Guan felt embarrassed inexplicably, and his face looked unnatural. She glared at Wang Manqing www.biquge.info the pen "Fun", pulled out her hand, and picked up the petals in the bowl with the pestle: "...... Can you dye it now? ”
The little maid didn't notice her look, and said with a smile: "Yes, you can dye it." ”
Wang Manqing stretched out her hands and laid them flat on the table, and the little girl used small tweezers to pick up the petals and carefully apply them to her hands, and then carefully wrapped them with leaves.
"You can get it for your young lady." She stood against Katsu Fangdao, who was serving on the side.
Hearing this, Shengfang looked at Li Guan, who shook his head: "I'd better forget it......"
"Oops, it doesn't look good when it is dyed. Hurry up, let's dye together, just tomorrow to go to the flower market, it must be better than those flowers, think about it and feel enjoyable! ”
Li Wan was a little moved when he heard this, Wang Manqing grabbed her hand with his free hand and put it up, and glanced at Shengfang.
Sheng Fang smiled and stepped forward to help Li Guan dye it.
Li Zhi propped up his little head and looked at them: "Sister, are you going to go to the flower market tomorrow?" ”
"yes, do you want to go?"
"Can I go?" His eyes widened in surprise.
Li Wan smiled and said, "Yes, but you have to get your mother's consent." ”
"Oh!" Li Zhi jumped up happily, as long as her sister went to tell her mother, she would definitely agree.
He clapped his hands with a smile and looked at Gu Chengyu: "Brother Yu, go too!" I heard from the flower slave that there are all kinds of flowers in the flower market, and you can even see flowers from the wilderness and the West, which must be very interesting! ”
During this time, Gu Chengyu taught him to play the whistle, patient and meticulous, the two got along very well, and he subconsciously did not treat Gu Chengyu as an outsider.
"Yes, Brother Gu, you can go with us." Wang Manqing glanced at Li Guan and echoed, "You are well-informed, and you can just give us ideas." ”
Gu Chengyu thought about it and nodded.
After a while, Li Guan and Wang Manqing's hands were covered with emerald green leaves.
The two of them made an appointment with Gu Chengyu about the time and place of meeting tomorrow, and he returned to Zhibai Zhai with Li Zhizhi and continued to guide him to blow the horn.
Wang Manqing had dinner before returning to the Rongning Marquis Mansion.
After she left, Li Guan went to the main courtyard with his hands raised.
Mrs. Li pulled her to sit on the Luohan bed: "Nail dyeing? ”
"Hmm." Li Wan nodded with a smile.
Mrs. Li stroked her cheeks with a look of relief, and sighed: "In the blink of an eye, they have grown into big girls......
Li Guan's eyes were suddenly slightly sour, and the corners of his mouth were slightly twining, as if he had something to say.
After a burst of "kicking, kicking" footsteps, Li Zhi, who was wearing a white silk shirt, ran in excitedly.
"Madam, Third Young Master, he heard that the young lady is coming, so he has to ......come," his personal maid explained.
"It's fine." Mrs. Li smiled at her, reached out and pulled Li Zhizhi into her arms, took the handkerchief handed by the maid and helped him wipe his wet hair.
"Mother, mother, I want to go to the flower market with my sister!"
Mrs. Li smiled, it turned out that it was for this matter, she looked at Li Guan.
Li Guan said: "I came here to tell you about this." Tomorrow Manqing and I are going to go to the flower market, so let your son go with us." ”
Mrs. Li hesitated, she was still young, and the people in the flower market were complicated, what if something happened......
Li Zhizhu couldn't help but be very anxious when he saw her expression, and squeezed his eyes at Li Wan.
"Mother, don't worry. We'll take the maids and guards with us, and we'll take care of them. Li Guan said softly.
Mrs. Li's face loosened, but she was still a little worried.
Li Guan rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Brother Gu will also go with us tomorrow, he is very stable and thoughtful, and he is careful, what else do you have to worry about with him?" ”
"Do you really think Gu Gongzi is steady, thoughtful and careful?" Mrs. Li asked her with a happy face.
"Yes......" Li Wan was slightly stunned and nodded.
Is there something wrong? Gu Chengyu is indeed young and old, much more mature than the average boy of the same age.
A smile immediately overflowed from Mrs. Li's eyes, and she held Li Zhizhi's face and said angrily: "Tomorrow, I have to listen to my sister's words, and I am not allowed to run around." ”
Li Zhizhi's eyes lit up, hugged her neck, took a sip of "let's chirp" at her face, and said loudly: "Hmm! ”
Mrs. Li hugged him and smiled happily, looking at Li Guan's eyes lovingly and gratifying.
Li Guan faintly felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't think of it for a while.
It doesn't matter, just if my mother agrees.
She sat there, her eyes curled softly.
The flower market in the capital blooms in the west of the city, with crowded small streets and alleys, and small shops and stalls full of flowers and trees next to each other. The eyes are full of colors, and the air is filled with the fragrance of plants and trees, which makes people's mood lighter.
At the entrance of the flower market, Wang Manqing sat in the carriage, leaning against the window, and talked to Gu Chengyu who was standing next to the carriage with a smile.
Gu Chengyu was wearing a white robe, with a mutton fat jade pendant around his waist, and a bamboo hairpin on his head, looking like a jade tree in the wind and an elegant temperament.
"Why hasn't Guan'er come yet?" Wang Manqing frowned lightly and said worriedly.
They made an appointment with Chenzheng, and now it's been a moment since Chenzheng, and she hasn't come yet, could it be that something happened on the road?
"Maybe there was a temporary delay, she is not the kind of person who is not punctual." Gu Chengyu said calmly, "They will definitely bring guards with them when they go out, and they are walking on the main street, the security in the city has always been very good, and nothing should happen." Let's wait. ”
She's not the kind of person who doesn't be punctual...... Wang Manqing glanced at him, with a little smile in his eyes.
At this moment, four or five men dressed as guards in the distance walked towards them around two carriages.
Wang Manqing stretched his neck to look around, and then showed a happy smile: "Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive." She helped the maid's men out of the carriage.
The carriage stopped in front of them, the curtain half drawn, and Li Guan smiled apologetically at them.
Li Zhizhi jumped down from the carriage and said with a smile: "Brother Yu, Sister Wang." ”
Chu Fang got out of the carriage and turned around to help Li Guan.
"I'm sorry, something happened, we're late."
"It's okay, we've just been there for a while." Wang Manqing grabbed her arm.
"Is there anything that matters?" Gu Chengyu heard her say something unexpected, and said with concern.
Li Guan shook his head: "It's okay, it's just that I accidentally soiled my clothes when I went out, and I wasted some time when I went back to change my clothes." ”
Li Zhizhi was so excited that he knocked over the teacup, not only getting himself wet, but also staining Li Guan's skirt with tea stains, so the two had to go back to their rooms to change their clothes again.
"That's good." Gu Chengyu said with a smile.
"Oops, your nails!" Wang Manqing grabbed Li Guan's hand in surprise, "It's light red, it's so beautiful!" ”
Li Guan pursed his lips and smiled.
Last night, before going to bed, the maid removed the leaves wrapped in her nails, and the color was already dyed, but not too dark. Her hands were too thin and bloodless to suppress the deep red, so the light red not only set off the skin color, but also did not dazzle the eyes.
Wang Manqing stretched out his hand and raised it side by side with Li Guan's hand: "Brother Gu, look at my nails and Guan'er's, whose ones are better dyed?" ”
