Chapter 22: Planning

It's April, and spring is shining everywhere.

Xianglan has been a little restless since the morning, holding a purse in her hand and secretly scolding Song Ke. The probe looked into the house, and saw that Cao Lihuan was whispering something to Hui'er, so he used the excuse to boil water, slipped out of Luo Xuewu, and went to the hillside to find Song Ke. Before he arrived, he saw a young man standing under the peach tree, who was Song Ke?

Xianglan immediately lifted her skirt and ran forward, stuffed her purse into Song Ke's hand, and said, "Give it back to you." With that, he turned around and left. Song Ke hurriedly grabbed her arm: "Hey, hey, what are you anxious about?" ”

Xianglan turned her head angrily and shook her arm fiercely, but she couldn't shake Song Ke's hand away, and said angrily: "How can I not be in a hurry? I lied and ran out, and I'll let my cousin find out later, I can't eat and walk around! ”

Song Ke was stunned, his hand was released, his face was apologetic, and he said, "I'm sorry, I didn't think about it properly......"

Seeing his description, Xianglan lost some anger, stood up and said, "The purse has been repaired, Song Gongzi has nothing to do, so I will leave first." ”

Song Ke took a closer look, and saw that the broken part of the purse had been carefully repaired, and the pattern was made up with silk threads of the same color, which was smooth and fine, and he couldn't see that it was broken, and couldn't help but be surprised: "It's so well repaired!" Looking at Xianglan, she smiled sincerely and said, "It can be seen that it took a lot of effort for you to make up this purse, so I naturally want to thank you." ”

Xianglan wanted to leave with her feet, but when she heard this, she said in her heart, "If you want to thank me, give me some silver." He pursed his lips and looked at Song Ke without making a sound.

Song Ke smiled and said, "I'm afraid it's too cheesy to give you silver, so I'll give it to you." As he spoke, he took out a small purse sewn of silk satin from his bosom and handed it to Xianglan.

Xianglan wanted to deliberately shirk it, but when she thought about it, she was angry when she thought about the pouch she was worried about two days ago, and Song Ke asked her to make up the purse that day, and she made up it in a daze, and only remembered halfway through the pouch that she remembered that if she shirked and made up for it badly, what could Song Ke do? But look at the purse that has been half replenished, or gritted his teeth to mend it, and did the work of lighting the lamp and boiling oil, but he was afraid of being seen, so he worked so hard that he didn't receive much of a thank you gift from Song Ke. Thinking of this, he took the small purse and said: "In this case, I am welcome, thank you Song Gongzi for his generosity." "Blessed, turn around and leave again.

Song Ke stepped forward and stopped: "You don't want to see what's inside?" ”

Xianglan was a little annoyed, but when she looked up, she saw Song Ke's smiling face, such a handsome face like a fairy smiled more and more beautifully, Xianglan couldn't help but be stunned, and thought: "This Song Gongzi is so well born and has a good demeanor, no wonder the young ladies of the Lin family are haunted by their dreams." "I was stunned, and I couldn't get out of my anger at all.

Song Ke was still urging beside him: "Open it up and take a look, see if you like it." ”

Xianglan couldn't, so she had to open the small purse according to her words, pour it out and take a look, only to see that it was a little frog carved from jade, clear and moist, it was an excellent material, the carving was mediocre, but there was a kind of humble and simple state, which was really gratifying. Xianglan let out a "ah", looked left and right with love, and muttered: "Jade things are common, and there are not many things that are so interesting." ”

Song Ke saw that Xianglan liked it, and the corners of his mouth also rose: "This little thing is carved and played with by me in my spare time, just like it." ”

Xianglan heard this ambiguously, and only then did she realize that she and Song Ke were too close, so she hurriedly took two steps back, and said calmly: "Slave thank you Song Gongzi for the reward, if there is nothing else, I will leave first." ”

Song Ke frowned tightly, the two of them were already a little familiar and intimate with each word, and just now she called herself "slave maid", and also called him "Song Gongzi", obviously she was divided again, and she was anxious, so she stepped forward again to stop Xianglan and said, "Wait, your handkerchief is still with me." ”

Xianglan remembered that Song Ke, the handkerchief he lent him to wipe his clothes and dirty hems last time, had not been returned, so she stretched out her hand and begged: "In this case, return it to me quickly." ”

Song Ke showed an innocent look on his face, spread out his two hands and said, "I forgot to bring it." Xianglan was a little annoyed again, and Song Ke hurriedly added: "Why don't you come over tomorrow when you're still in your prime, and I'll return the handkerchief to you?" ”

Xianglan withdrew her hand and said lightly: "Forget it, it's just a handkerchief, I don't want it either, Song Gongzi burned it." "Say and leave again.

Song Ke stretched out his arm to stop him again, and said with a smile on his face: "It's better to do this, you will give me the handkerchief, and I will exchange it for you." As he spoke, he reached into his sleeve and pulled out a white silk flower.

Xianglan was stunned for a moment, Song Ke was a little proud, and sent the silk flower to Xianglan and said, "Just this silk flower, it is much more beautiful than the paper flower on your head." ”

Xianglan took the silk flower and took a look, and saw that the back of the flower was a little black dyed with an ink pen, and the back of the flower she lost asked her to lightly draw a mark with a brush, and it turned out that the white flower she had lost was actually picked up by Song Ke.

Song Ke looked at Xianglan, and saw that she lowered her head and lowered her eyebrows, her thick eyelashes covered Shuxiu's eyes, and Youlan Tianya was not as beautiful as her, Song Ke was a little stunned, and muttered: "When you lost the flowers, I happened to meet her, I don't know if this is fate?" ”

Xianglan became more and more dislike when she heard this, and smiled distantly: "Song Gongzi's property is returned to its original owner, and the slave and maid have thanked it here." "Blessed with a blessing, I have to leave again.

Song Ke didn't stop this time, but only asked behind his back: "I don't know your name yet?" Xianglan wanted to pretend not to hear, but Song Ke raised her tone and said loudly, "If you don't say it, I'll go to Luo Xuewu to inquire." ”

Xianglan scolded hatefully, glared back at him, and reluctantly said, "My name is Xianglan." With that, he lifted his skirt and ran quickly.

When she was about to arrive at Luo Xuewu, Xianglan paused, straightened her clothes and hair, carried half a pot of water from the small teahouse, and walked back slowly. As soon as I entered the door, I saw Hui'er leaning on the door with small walnuts to eat, glanced at Xianglan, and said with a sneer: "I don't see anyone who gets up early this morning, where is the madness?" ”

Xianglan whispered, "Boil the water." "Flash in and add tea.

Hui'er looked at Xianglan's back and snorted, spit out the walnut shell in her mouth to the ground, raised her face and said to Cao Lihuan, who had just come out of the bedroom: "You don't care about her, you know how to go crazy all day long." ”

Cao Lihuan said: "Now I have to coax her to work more, I think the little hooves are not as diligent as before, if you scold her again, you will be annoyed, and the embroidery work is not fine, but it is not good." ”

Hui'er said disdainfully: "What are you afraid of, she dares to be lazy and slippery, so let Grandma Lou let her out!" ”

"Now that the eldest lady is back, she doesn't speak as much as before." Cao Lihuan said with a shrewd face, "Xianglan is still a girl of the Lin family in the final analysis, if it is ours, it is not a matter of a word to want to fight and scold, you should be less angry with that little girl, let me ask you, how did you do the things I gave you?" If it is done, it will be our long-term way out. ”

Hui'er lowered her voice and said, "I have done what the girl said, and there is nothing wrong with it." He was a little afraid, and said, "Girl, you said that this matter should be found out in case ......."

"Don't worry, you can't find out!" Cao Lihuan said categorically, "What if you find out again?" Can you still eat us alive? It's really not possible, cover a roll, let's just leave. Things have come to this point, and if you don't do it, you have to do it, so you just take a gamble. Looking at Hui'er's cowering look, he patted her hand and said, "You just have to rest assured, I have something wrong." ”

Hui'er sighed and hesitated, "Auntie...... Girl, you are engaged to the son of the Ren family, just wait for the future to marry, even if the Ren family's way is a little thinner, but the son of Ren is a gentle and loving person, and there is peace in guarding the field, why should the girl ......"

Cao Lihuan was silent, staring at the blue and white glazed red cup on the table, and suddenly picked up the cup and handed it to Hui'er and said, "Let me ask you, even if my father and mother are not gone, can the family afford such a cup in our hometown of Yuzhou?" ”

Hui'er was stunned and shook her head.

Cao Lihuan pointed around: "The bed that can afford this gold carving, the screen with luodian inlaid treasures, and the flower vase on the case?" Although I have a few decent clothes, I can count them on one hand, and Lin Dongqi's casual clothes are of fine silk brocade, at least forty taels of silver! Cao Lihuan said that the more her face became redder, and her eyes were surprisingly bright, "I thought that my original home, the mansion of Sanjin was magnificent, and when I came to the Lin family, I realized that the house in Yuzhou was like a pigshed, and the garden was like a fairyland...... Hui'er, I told myself at the time that if I couldn't find a better family than the Lin family, I would never move away from the Lin family! Otherwise, my mother gave me that set of ruby and gold hairpins, how could I be cheap Zhao Yuechan's slut! ”

Hui'er wanted to speak and stopped: "But ...... But even if this thing is done, the girl will at most make a concubine room for the third master of the pavilion, and others will have to talk about it, the girl Xu will not be able to raise her head for the rest of her life, and she will be the head husband and wife when she arrives at the Ren family, this is ......"

"That's for later! The boat is naturally straight to the bridge, and I won't break through so many winds and waves? Hui'er, you have also seen the third master of Ting, not to mention the handsome eyebrows and eyes, that gesture is everyone's son's temperament, compared with him, Ren Yu can be a fart to release. Cao Lihuan fiddled with the bracelet on her wrist, "Even if the Ren family worships me as a Buddha, but their family can afford to wear silk, singe-hair, and brocade gowns all year round, and drink the imperial wine given by the palace?" ”

Hui'er was speechless, her expression was a little dumbfounded, and the smile on Cao Lihuan's face was a little confused: "Not to mention that Ren Yu is a brainless person, he can't study, he can't do business, he has been reading for more than ten years, and he is still a child...... I said to the outside world, saying that the Ren family has a simple population, is easy to serve, and is a family with a house, a house, and a land, is a solid one, saying that Ren Yu is honest and has a good temperament, in fact, ...... In fact, it's all about giving myself a long face, what the hell, I feel like a mirror in my heart, but I talk too much, and I can also deceive myself, as if I like this family business so much......"

Hui'er saw Cao Lihuan's bleak expression, and couldn't help but speak: "Girl......"

Cao Lihuan shook his head: "No matter how strong and capable I am, I still count on men to be competent after all, Ren Yu is a soft egg, let alone taking the test to become a wife and a son in the future, even if I manage my ancestral business well, I can't see it." ”

Cao Lihuan's voice gradually lowered, the two were silent, suddenly, Cao Lihuan puffed up her chest and said loudly: "I was also a young lady of the Wang family, why can Lin Dongjun, a concubine of the Lin family, marry the children of an official eunuch, I am still a concubine, should I find a poor family to marry?" Even if I am the concubine of the Lin family, I will enjoy glory and wealth in this life...... Hmph, I became the concubine of the Lin family, who dares to really treat me as a concubine? In the future, grandma's seat will be mine sooner or later! ”

Cao Lihuan's eyes were sharp, revealing a ruthless look. Hui'er thought that Cao Lihuan would stay in the Lin family in the future, which would only be good for herself, so Yin Yin poured a cup of tea for Cao Lihuan and racked her brains to help her master come up with advice.
