Chapter 39: Death (1)
Jinxuan's story is over. Stealing jade sat on the edge of the bed, unable to calm down for a long time. She didn't know why Jinxuan wanted to tell her story to a little girl who had only known her for more than ten days, but she had a faint sense of foreboding in her heart. Jinxuan's body is indeed very weak, she said that her body is not very good, and this time she was hit again, I wonder if the old disease will worsen?
Just when Stealing Jade was in a daze, Jinxuan tried to get up, but fell heavily on the bed again. Stealing Yu was startled and said, "Madam, if you are not feeling well, don't get up." ”
"It's okay," Jinxuan shook her head slightly, "I just wanted to get up and get something." ”
"Madame can tell Xiaolian if you need anything, and Xiaolian will help you get it." Stealing Yu helped her lie down again and said.
Jinxuan pointed to a gold-painted mahogany cabinet in the corner of the wall and said, "There is a jewelry box in it, you can help me bring it." ”
Stealing Yu hurriedly opened the cabinet and took out the jewelry box that Jinxuan said. The box is very ordinary, made of rosewood, with some simple lotus totems carved on it. Jinxuan took the box and slowly opened it. Stealing jade couldn't help but poke his head over to take a look, only to see that it was nothing else, it was the jasper hairpin that the master was thinking about!
The last time I saw this hairpin, it was the stealing jade who followed Chen Zhiyuan and saw Jinxuan wearing it on her head. Since then, she hasn't seen Jinxuan wear it. The last time it was just a glimpse from afar, but now when I see it up close, I know that the hairpin is really not ordinary!
The style of the hairpin is exactly the same as on the master's drawings, the jade is green all over, not mixed with a trace of impurities, and it is as smooth as a pool of autumn water, and it is cool to the touch. The hairpin is carved in the shape of a magnolia flower, with thousands of petals stacked on top of each other, and the stamens are made of deep-sea glaze, which shines brightly under the candlelight. No wonder the master wants to get this hairpin, which is many times more expensive than Du Zhiping's piece of jade and jade!
Jinxuan's trembling hand took out the jasper hairpin, and a gentle smile appeared on her pale face. She gently stroked the hairpin and said, "This is what Zhiyuan gave me." Beautiful, right? ”
Stealing Jade sincerely admired: "Well, I have never seen a more beautiful hairpin than this." ”
Jinxuan still smiled: "He always wants to give me the best, but where do I deserve it?" He gave me many things, but I rejected them, except for this hairpin. I heard that this was given to him by the Holy God today, and it is a treasure that is difficult to find in the world. I don't understand that, I just like it. But although I like it, I feel that I will insult this extraordinary thing, so I rarely take it out and wear it. ”
Stealing Jade was confused by her words. She didn't understand why Jinxuan suddenly thought of this hairpin. After a while, Jin Xuan put the jade hairpin into the brocade box again, and said, "Xiao Lian, wait until tomorrow, you can help me send this hairpin to Chen's mansion." ”
"What?" Stealing Yu thought that he had misheard, so he asked again, "Madame said that you want me to send this hairpin back to the Chen Mansion?" ”
"Not bad." Jinxuan nodded, "I don't need it on weekdays, and my vulgar and despicable body is not worthy of these precious jewelry." Zhiyuan's wife is from an official family, and she has a very good character, so she is more suitable for this hairpin, isn't she? ”
"But Madame......" Stealing Yu wanted to say something, but was stopped by Jinxuan.
She insisted, "Go ahead, send it to me tomorrow." ”
On the second day, Jinxuan woke up early. When she came to her room, she had already dressed and freshened up, and looked at herself carefully in front of the bronze mirror. In the past ten days that Stealing Jade has been in the courtyard, I have never seen her dress up so carefully.
Seeing that Jin Xuan's spirit was much better than yesterday, Stealing Yu couldn't help but feel better. She walked around behind Jinxuan, helped her arrange her hair bun, and took a pearl hairpin to help her put it on, and said with a smile: "Madame is in such good spirits today, she looks ten years younger!" ”
Jinxuan covered her lips and smiled, and said angrily: "You girl, you still make fun of me." It's just that I haven't dressed up carefully for a long time, and when I looked in the mirror today, I found that my face was really scary. It's hard for you to face this every day! ”
Stealing jade looked at the woman in the mirror through the bronze mirror, and there was a layer of gentle glow on her not outstanding facial features, adding a lot of softness. Stealing Jade couldn't help but say sincerely: "Madame is very beautiful!" This face of yours may not be a national and a city, but it is very attractive. When you were younger, you must have been particularly charming. I don't know how many handsome people secretly like you! ”
"This kid ......," Jinxuan smiled softly, "you elf ghost is the one who will fascinate many young and handsome sons." ”
The two talked and laughed for a while, and Stealing Jade only felt that today's Jinxuan was very different. After lunch, Jinxuan instructed Stealing Yu: "Okay, calculate the time, Zhiyuan should be in the mansion at this time." Xiaolian, you can help me send the hairpin. ”
"Ma'am," Stealing Jade persuaded again, "do you really intend to return the hairpin?" ”
Jinxuan nodded, handed the brocade box with the jasper glass hairpin to the thief of jade, and said, "Give the hairpin to Zhiyuan, tell him, treat his wife well, that is a woman worthy of his cherishment and respect." ”
Stealing Jade didn't know why Jinxuan suddenly said this, but nodded as if she didn't understand. She asked again: "Then I will give the hairpin to Master Chen and come back immediately." Madame want to eat some snacks, I heard that there is a shop in Huainan City, and the hibiscus cake is very delicious. ”
Jinxuan smiled: "Well, if Xiaolian likes it, buy some back." ”
Stealing jade took the glass hairpin, carefully checked his disguise, and then set off for Huainan City. Along the way, she was in a good mood, perhaps influenced by Jinxuan's good mood. When you go to the Chen Mansion, you can see Senior Brother Fang Wu. Now that the jasper glass hairpin is in her hand, then go to meet with the senior brother first, use the fake hairpin prepared in advance to swap the real thing, and then hand over the fake to Chen Zhiyuan, even if it is done!
I didn't expect things to go so smoothly this time, and I could go back to the villa in a few days. I haven't seen my sister for a long time, and I don't know if her trip to Weiyi Mountain with Rong Gongzi was smooth. Also, Don is not surprised. It's almost half a month, and I don't know where he is, what he does, and who he is with. Could it be that he has always stayed in the Qi Mansion and got along with the eldest lady of the Qi family day and night?
Thinking of this, Stealing Jade's face turned red. What the hell was she thinking? Is Tang Bujing with Miss Qi, and what does it have to do with her? It's better to complete the task quickly and go back to your life. Stealing Jade couldn't help but speed up her pace and galloped towards Huainan City.
When passing by the honey that sells hibiscus cakes in Huainan City, the stealing jade smelled an enticing sweet fragrance. She thought to herself, when the hairpin matter was done, she would come to buy some pastries and go back, and let Madame try it.
