Chapter 115: The Folk Girl Can Be (Second Watch)
"Shu Yue, pass on my order, Chunhua treats guests slowly, and is punished to go to the firewood room as an errand for one month."
"The slave obeys." Shu Yuefu left, and after leaving the small flower hall, she carefully asked Mama Li and Li Zi.
Mama Li didn't dare to say that Qi Qingyu was smashed like the wind, but Li Zixin quickly confided in him.
Shu Yue's face was a little strange after hearing this, and she twisted slightly for a while before she eased up, and ordered her subordinates to go on an errand.
When Mama Li and Li Zi heard this, they were immediately happy, but Mama Li didn't dare to show it as unscrupulously as Li Zi.
After Shu Yue nodded to the two of them, she entered the Xiaohua Hall with a solemn demeanor, and respectfully replied to Mrs. Zuo, "Madam, I have already ordered to go down." ”
Mrs. Zuo bowed her head and looked at Qi Qingyu with a deep gaze.
Qi Qingyu did not hide the joy in his heart, and deliberately turned around to appease Zeng's glance, before he said to Mrs. Zuo seriously: "Madam, according to the rules of this dynasty, the old man's ninetieth birthday is funded by the government, and the local emperor's relatives and relatives all come to congratulate him. It also includes the banquet and makeup expenses of the old birthday star on the day. ”
This is something that Qi Qingyu only remembered last night.
Mrs. Zuo listened quietly, except for Qi Qingyu's pleasant voice, there was no noise.
"The folk girl thinks that the hairpin ornament should be made of pearls, which is ancient but not prominent, noble but not impetuous." Qi Qingyu talked about things, starting with the bank, and talked eloquently, "Moreover, the pearl is made of tiny grains of sand, and it has been tempered by wind and frost to become a big pearl, which can symbolize the status of the old lady, and the fruit is the only one left, low-key and true." The choice of pearls also conveys the blessing of the lady to the old lady, health and longevity, and wealth of children and grandchildren. ”
Mrs. Zuo didn't answer immediately, and the small flower hall was so quiet that it could be heard.
It was only after hearing Mrs. Zuo say: "In your opinion, what kind of pearl is appropriate?" ”
Qi Qingyu replied loudly: "Don't dare to hide it from Madame, I planned to use Nanzhu before I came, but now I don't think it's appropriate, probably Dongzhu is more suitable." ”
Connoisseurs have "East is not as good as West." West is not as good as south". Nanzhu is produced in the distant North Sea, and in addition to paying tribute to the court every year, there is not much left, and the price is very expensive.
"Let's draw a pattern and take a look." Mrs. Zuo smiled leisurely. The meaningful gaze had another picture, and immediately let Shu Yue pass on the four treasures of the study.
Draw under your nose, you can't cheat, and the test is real learning.
Mrs. Zuo is also a caring person, and the brushes sent are divided into soft and hard, thick, new and old.
Qi Qingyu had already prepared. I don't know how many times I thought about that pattern in my mind. The old man's dress should not be fancy and complicated, and it is best to be simple and neat at a glance but have an endless aftertaste.
In just two quarters of an hour, Qi Qingyu had already drawn a simple and exquisite hairpin pattern. However, because the old lady is a second-class edict, it is different from the general official wife, and the eaves of the inlaid jewels can be stacked and arranged in a two-one way, decorated with hollow gilt ruyi patterns.
After the pattern was drawn, Qi Qingyu presented it to Mrs. Zuo with both hands.
Shu Xianyue took it and handed it over to Mrs. Zuo. She swept it lightly, her eyes lit up, and she didn't feel more serious. Then he bowed his head slightly and praised: "So ingenious, with pearls as flowers, filigree into plants, wishful embellishment, can you really make it?" ”
To say the pattern, it is wonderful. But the hairpin is not better than a single hairpin, which has two large hairpins, the use of tired silk process can not pour the mold, by hand using fine tools to pinch it, can there be no deviation?
Mrs. Zuo couldn't help but be a little worried. "Prince Gong has confirmed that he will come to Jianye in September to attend the old lady's ninetieth birthday banquet, if something goes wrong and someone picks you out, I can't protect you." The tone seemed to be intimidating and tentative.
She does it herself, how there will be the slightest deviation. Qi Qingyu is full of confidence. Humbly taught: "If you are favored by Mrs. and Mrs. Tai, after the production of the people's daughter, the lady can appreciate it first, and if there is a deviation, the people's daughter should blame herself." ”
"You are a little Mo Xinkouhe, first of all, who in the Qi family can take this big responsibility?" Mrs. Zuo's eyes were still lingering on the pattern. This painter is really unpickable, and people can't take their eyes off it.
Qi Qingyu shouted: "Mrs., the people's daughter can be a girl." ”
The little one is so serious that it makes people laugh.
Mrs. Zuo couldn't help laughing, and then said sincerely: "If you have this ability, I will allow you to establish a foothold in Jianye with the Qi family." ”
When Qi Qingyu heard this, she was very energetic, and hurriedly turned around and pulled Zeng's to bow down together: "Mrs. Xie......"
"Wait." Mrs. Zuo stopped the gesture, and the maid on the side had already hugged Zeng and Qi Qingyu, "Don't talk easily, it's not too late to say goodbye when you make it." ”
Things have finally progressed, and the Zeng family is feeling a kind of joy to see the moon, and Qi Qingyu is also smiling.
"But your ominous name has spread all over the restaurant...... "Hearing Mrs. Zuo's words, it was like a basin of cold water on Zeng's head.
"Six girls, who slandered you?" Zeng asked in shock.
When Qi Qingyu recounted what happened in Baoping Courtyard just now, Zeng didn't listen to it at all?
Qi Qingyu gave Zeng a comforting smile, and turned to Mrs. Zuo: "First of all, ask why Mrs. Fang sent someone to let the people's daughter come to the house yesterday?" "It's about the light clouds and the light wind.
Mrs. Zuo felt that there was some meaning, and the medicine sold in the gourd was revealed, "You sent someone to send 10,000 taels to Fang's house?" ”
She did know, which is why she began to say the phrase "carrying a box of gold and asking to see, but you may not see it".
Moreover, these words obviously admit to others that she has eyeliner buried in the Fang family, which puts Qi Qingyu in the list of credible.
Qi Qingyu got the letter and was generous, "What happened in Baoping Courtyard is actually a bureau, set up for the engagement of the second Miss Zuo, and the folk girl will probably be picked up if she is disgusted by others." "Because Qi Qingyu doesn't understand Zuo Lingyin's middle way, he still calls him according to his previous cognition.
is so smart, what a genius, Liang Sanya didn't make a big deal. "In your opinion, what is the purpose of setting up this bureau?" Mrs. Zuo gave Shu Yue a look, Shu Yue was slightly blessed, and stepped forward to carry Qi Qingyu to the main seat next to Mrs. Zuo.
"Rong Minnu first ask Mrs., does the second lady have a daughter of the same age as the second lady on the left?" Qi Qingyu was quite attentive, and he had already re-sorted out the matter in the Dragon Cloud Vein. All those who are close to her and who are good for her must stay, and those who want to harm her will die.
Mrs. Zuo's eyes showed appreciation, "There is such one, Zuo Lingxue, who is twenty-eight years old this year." ”
Suddenly, with a "bang", the wall behind Qi Qingyu crashed loudly, which frightened her, and the whole person shrank in the chair.
Mrs. Zuo squinted, and subconsciously reached out and patted Qi Qingyu's back, "It's that rude sister, I'm coming here soon." ”
Qi Qingyu immediately understood that it must be Zuo Lingyin who was hiding behind and listening, it was a lifelong matter, so he couldn't sit still and jumped.
"How can it be!" Before the words fell, the door of the small flower hall was kicked open, and it creaked. Qi Qingyu looked through the door and saw Li Zi's face was pale, and his fists were clenched tightly. And Zuo Lingyin stood next to Li Zi, more than an inch taller than her, and Rufeng stood behind Zuo Lingyin, with willow eyebrows upside down.
"For motherhood, there are guests here." Mrs. Zuo didn't blame Zuo Lingyin, but just reminded gently.
Zuo Lingyin hurriedly squeezed out a smiling face, slowly entered, and immediately covered the door like the wind.
But as soon as this door was closed, Zuo Lingyin revealed his fierce face, "Qi Qingyu, what did you mean by what you said just now?" They arranged me for the purpose of letting Zuo Lingxue take advantage of my marriage? I'm sorry, I don't look at Zuo Lingxue's disease, is she worthy! (To be continued.) )
