Chapter 251: The Disappearing Diamond

Xia Xiaodong finally made the first batch of two pieces of 'soft armor' before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

The soft armor looks a bit like a long jacket with a pullover, and the outermost layer is made black, and if you wear it inside, and then cover the robe outside, you basically can't tell that you are wearing soft armor.

Sewing so many layers of fabric together was much more difficult than you thought in the days when there were no electric sewing machines. That is, Mu Mu has tenacity, so he barely made two pieces, and several new calluses were ground out on his right hand.

Xia Xiaodong was just cutting and technical guidance, and he was a little tired.

Everyone is playing horse hanging and playing leaf cards, at least playing shuanglu gambling dice or something to have fun, New Year's Eve.

I'm still busy, it's really a busy life.

But thinking about the silver of the white flowers, Xia Xiaodong's mood immediately improved again, and immediately gave Mu Mu a reward of five taels, which made Mu Mu inexplicable.

"The girl gave it before." Mu Mu refused to accept it.

Given? Xia Xiaodong thought about it, as if he had given one or two.

"I'll take it for you, it's hush money." Xia Xiaodong knew that he could only go straight to Mu Mu: "About this thing, you just remember that no one asks and doesn't say anything." ”

This time, Mu Mu accepted it. Hush money, the girl said.

After handing over the things, Xia Xiaodong only felt relaxed, and took a good nap, and didn't get up until almost unitary.

Well, I just left for Mrs. Lu's for dinner.

It's just that Lu Yunzhi's face doesn't seem to be very good.

"Sister Yunzhi," Xia Xiaodong was a little puzzled: "Is it because those two soft armors are not satisfied?" ”

You have to test it to know if it works, so you won't be dissatisfied so quickly, right? Xia Xiaodong is still quite confident in his works.

Lu Yunzhi shook his head: "It's not this." ”

"Let's talk as we go." Lu Yunzhi took Xia Xiaodong's hand and said with a smile: "You can't finish listening, just stand on the shore and watch the joke." ”

"Hearing you say that, it seems like it should have nothing to do with me." Xia Xiaodong reached out and put on the hood of the cloak and walked out with Lu Yunzhi.

Alas, now my body is still a little thinner, and I am particularly afraid of the cold.

"That's the case," Lu Yunzhi sighed slightly before he spoke.

It turned out that because it was the Shangyuan Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month two days later, the girls of the Lu family began to move around each other frequently-mainly to exchange what clothes to wear and what jewelry to wear on the day of lantern appreciation.

Just because the girls' seasonal clothes, daily wear and other things, many of them are made together, and the patterns and styles are almost the same, so communicate well in advance to avoid hitting the shirt and jewelry.

And knowing other people's plans, it is good to decide your own choice, and when the time comes, it will be so special.

As a result, at noon today, something strange happened because of this.

After lunch, Lu Yunfang invited Lu Yunzhi, Lu Yunxin and Lu Yunsheng to sit in the long room. The purpose is, of course, to show off the outfits she has prepared.

Lu Yunfang, as the daughter of the long house, has always regarded herself very highly, since the future father-in-law was appointed as the deputy chief examiner of Chunqiu, and the future husband is said to have a very high chance of being able to go to high school, he thinks more and more of himself is a first-class girl, so they are all girls with weight in the Lu family.

Those that can be taken out to dry are naturally first-class goods, including a diamond hairpin with a plum blossom pattern.

There are three hairpins, Lu Yunfang got plum blossoms, Lu Yunzhi got orchids, and pine branches were given to Xia Xiaodong by the old lady a few days ago.

It's just that Da Chu has no place to produce diamonds, and no one knows how to cut and polish this thing, so all jewelry with diamonds is a tribute from the feudal state. If there are any in the courtier's family, they are all rewarded by the palace, which is a very rare thing.

Lu Yunfang took out this hairpin, somewhat showing off. It's just that Lu Yunzhi already has the same set, and Lu Yunsheng is even more invisible, so only Lu Yunxin is young and a little envious.

"Do you remember that next to Sister Yunfang, there was a new maid named Su Su?" Speaking of this, Lu Yunzhi turned his head and asked Xia Xiaodong.

"Yes." This is because Su Su is not easy to forget, and it is not a worry-free thing at first glance.

"Well," Lu Yunzhi continued, "Now this Su Su seems to be more and more in line with Sister Yunfang's thoughts, and let her take care of her clothes and jewelry. At that time, Su Su spoke on the side and said, since Miss Yunxin likes it, it is better to lend it to Miss Yunxin to wear, otherwise next year, I am afraid that I will not have a chance to borrow it. ”

This means that Lu Yunfang is about to get married, and there should be a bit of a sisterly show at this time.

I don't know if Su Su's words were explained in advance, or if they happened to be right about Lu Yunfang's thoughts, in short, Lu Yunfang agreed immediately.

The higher realm of showing off is, of course, not only showing off your own head, but also showing off what your sister wears on her head, which is also your own.

Lu Yunxin didn't really want to borrow the diamond hairpin - she had her own good jewelry, and she didn't need to borrow it, but when it came to Cheng DΓΉ, it was not easy to refuse, so she agreed.

At that moment, Su Su took the box, loaded the hairpin, handed it to Guizhi, the eldest girl who followed Lu Yunxin, and held it, and later brought it back to Lu Yunxin.

However, after everyone talked for a while and the gossip dispersed, Lu Yunxin returned to his yard, because Ben didn't care too much about the diamond hairpin, so he told Guizhi to put it away first. Unexpectedly, Guizhi suddenly screamed in surprise.

Just because she opened the box and saw that the diamond on the hairpin was gone!

This is really strange, Gui Zhi was so anxious that he was about to jump into the ice hole, kneeling on the ground and swearing to the sky and cursing the ground, saying that he had never touched the hairpin, and even the box had just been opened.

Lu Yunxin naturally believes in her maid, not to mention that the maid has been following her and has never left the front, how did she do it?

So, Lu Yunxin took the maid and the box, and of course, the hairpin without diamonds in the box, and returned to Lu Yunfang's yard.

By the time Lu Yunzhi and Lu Yunsheng, who were present at the time, were invited back to the long room again, Su Su and Gui Zhi were already about to fight.

After all, in the final analysis, it's just a hairpin's business, besides, the girls are never wrong, and if things go wrong, of course, it's the girls' business.

It's just that Lu Yunfang and Lu Yunxin both protected their maids separately, and the more they talked about it, the more confused they became, and in the end, they simply invited Lu Yunzhi and Lu Yunsheng back, but these two couldn't figure it out.

Neither Su Su nor Gui Zhi are like people who have a chance to do it, and if there is really a chance to get the diamond, why not just take the whole hairpin away, but only take the diamond?
