Chapter 487: Jealousy Becomes a Disaster
Fang Qiao secretly rejoiced in her heart, so that she could go out to report without alarming anyone. At the thought of seeing that person soon, Fang Qiao's heart couldn't help but be overjoyed, although her face didn't show it, her eyes were already dyed a little peachy.
"Fang Qiao, Fang Qiao?" The nurse called several times, and then she brought Fang Qiao back to her senses.
"Nurse, you call me?"
"Oh, Madame has called you a few times, what do you think about this girl?"
Fang Qiao secretly said that she was careless, but she was distracted at this time, and she didn't know if they saw any clues. She hurriedly raised her head and said: "It's nothing, the slave maid is thinking about going to Baohua Building tomorrow, and the lady has made several sets of jewelry, and the slave maid is afraid that there will be a mistake......
Su Shi nodded, "You have always been steady, so it's right to think so." β
Fang Qiao saw that Su Shi did not suspect it, and her nervous feelings were stable, so she breathed a sigh of relief, and listened to Su Shi's words: "Call Shang Xiuying to go with you tomorrow, and send two more little servants to follow, so that everything is safe." β
Fang Qiao is in a hurry, so how can it be done? I just said that I was just to prevaricate the Su family, who would have thought of lifting a stone and hitting my own feet! It was fake that she went out of the house to pick up jewelry for the Su family, in order to ventilate the news to that person, it was true, and now the Su family let people follow her, she is unable to move, how can she succeed? Besides, well, why did she suddenly send someone to follow her? Aren't you suspicious? Want to send someone to spy on you?
Fang Qiao had no idea for a while, although Xiuying was timid, she was loyal to the Su family. That time, after Miss Qin San came back from Jiafu and injured Xiumei in front of her, this girl was frightened, and from then on, she followed the Su family with all her heart, and she didn't dare to think about it at all. If I take her out, I'm afraid that most of the things that report the news will be in vain.
Fang Qiao thought about it, and then said tentatively, "Madam, the slave remembered that you only let Baohua Building have two sets of heads, is there anything else?" β
Su Shi shook his head, "Just those two sets, one set of red gold and tourmaline, and one set of gold and jade." β
Fang Qiao said: "Since there are only two sets, the slave and maid can go alone." Just let Xiuying stay in front of you and wait. Slave and maid, go and come back quickly. Call the guys from Baohua Mansion to send the slaves and maids all the way back, and there will be no mistakes. β
Su Shi didn't object when he heard this, but said unconcernedly: "It's okay." You just pay attention to it. β
Hearing this, Fang Qiao finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the uneasiness in her heart disappeared and was replaced by full joy.
Su Shi was tired, and yawned twice in a row.
Fang Qiao hurriedly got up and said, "Madame is tired, take a nap for a while, and the slave and maid will wait for you to rest." She stepped forward to put a pillow for Su Shi, helped Su Shi lie down, and put a thin satin quilt with a cocoon on her body, and then she was about to withdraw.
The nurse is getting older, and the summer afternoon is a time when it is easy to be tired. She whispered to Fang Qiao and said, "I'll sleep under Madame's feet for a while, if there's anything, you call me first." β
Fang Qiao nodded, lifted the curtain and walked out of the upper room, returning to her own room. Fang Qiao went in and washed her face, and when the heat on her body dissipated a little, she began to lose her mind, but she felt that she couldn't stay anymore, she got up and came to the cabinet, reached out and opened the box, and carefully picked up her clothes. In the new summer shirt made this year, she has all the skirts on her body, and only a set of snowflake silk horse-faced skirts that Su Shi has not worn yet. Fang Qiao thought about it, and then reached out and turned the skirt out of the bottom of the box, the material is good, the color is delicate like a flower, is lining her complexion, Fang Qiao thought of seeing that person tomorrow, her heart couldn't stop being sweet, she was stunned by the clothes, her face was red, I don't know what I thought, I actually laughed, and then I quickly covered my mouth as if I remembered something, thinking that her current status is not what it used to be, so she lives in a room alone, and her living life is much more convenient than before, even if she loses her temper now, this little daughter's heart can't be seen by others.
Fang Qiao's heart was relieved, and she simply let herself hold her clothes and eat and laugh for a while, then spread her clothes on the kang, took a copper kettle, went to the kitchen and asked for half a pot of boiling water, and when she came back, she used the copper kettle to iron the horse-faced skirt carefully from top to bottom through the sweat towel, and then it was over.
Early the next morning, Fang Qiao got up early, first carefully groomed from beginning to end, and then took out a box of incense powder that was usually reluctant to wipe and evenly evenly on her face. Fang Qiao opened the jewelry box, took out a silver hairpin of Su's butterfly love flower and put it on, took off the silver cloves on her ears, and replaced them with a pair of pearl earplugs the size of a grain of rice.
There were Xiuying and a new second-class girl Wanci waiting in Su's house, she was not in a hurry to rush over, Fang Qiao came to the porch with light steps, picked a red begonia from the flower pot and pinned it to the sideburns, and then happily entered the house.
Su Shi was dressing up, only to feel a burst of fragrant wind surging, and then she saw Fang Qiao in the mirror.
"Madame Jin'an, the slave is late." Fang Qiao said nothing more than decent words, now there is only a big girl like her in Su's room, and there are some things that she doesn't have to do by herself anymore.
Su Shi only said, "Hurry up." She looked at Fang Qiao carefully in the mirror, only to feel that the girl was upright, slim and elegant, with affection at the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, and her gestures were like a landscape painting, which was pleasing to the eye and relaxed.
The nurse probably also felt that Fang Qiao's dress today was different from every day, and praised again and again: "The longer this girl is, the more thoughtful she is, and this style looks like a beautiful girl." β
Fang Qiao was happy in her heart, but said: "The nurse is used to making fun of people. β
After Su finished dressing up, he asked people to arrange breakfast in the second room.
Fang Qiao hurriedly followed behind Su Shi and personally waited for her to eat, Xiuying and Wanci saw it, so they had to retreat.
Fang Qiao helped Su Shi Bucai on the one hand, and thought at the same time, if I go to Baohua Building to pick up jewelry, I am afraid that it will not take an hour to go back and forth, if I want to stay by his side for a while or three more, I need to find another reason. She gritted her teeth and thought for a long time, and used the chopsticks engraved with silver filigree to give Su Qiao a small milky flower roll before she spoke: "Madam, the slave brother asked someone to bring a letter a few days ago, saying that he wanted to meet the slave and maid. She only said half of her words, wanting to see Su's reaction.
Hearing this, Su Shi hurriedly put down the spoon in his hand and asked, "Aren't you the least to see this brother, what's the matter, now that you have changed your mind?" Fang Qiao's brother and sister-in-law always wanted to marry Fang Qiao to the landlord's family, so Fang Qiao was very disgusted with these two and never took the initiative to mention it.
"In the end, it is a mother's compatriot, the slave's brother is impatient, and the slave's parents are gone, he relies on his sister-in-law's family for big and small reasons, and his confidence is inevitably insufficient. Madam, now he wants to see the slave and maid, I am afraid that there is also remorse, the slave and the maid want to go and see, if he asks for money, I will naturally not give it, if the old thing is mentioned again, the slave and maid will not have this brother, and then deny him. "Actually, Fang Qiao has long broken off contact with her brother and sister-in-law, and she hasn't seen each other for half a year, so she said this today just to coax Su Shi and want to stay outside for a while.
Su Shi's intentions for Fang Qiao were clear, she listened to this deceitful nonsense, she only felt that her heart was blocked, where could she still eat, and only said: "It's okay, if you leave the house today, it is better to see your brother first, and then go to Baohua Building to get jewelry, go early and return early." β
Fang Qiao didn't expect things to go so smoothly, she was happy in her heart, and said quickly: "Thank you, madam, slave." She bent her knees and looked happy.
At this moment, the curtain was lifted, but it was Qin Daixin who came.
Su Shi's heart warmed, and he hurriedly said, "Why did you come here so early?" Ready for dinner? β
Fang Qiao's gaze also fell on Qin Daixin.
Qin Daixin wore an ivory white snow-spulled Wangxian skirt, the skirt was embroidered with a full range of dew-stained roses and perched branches with gold thread as thin as hair, the tail of the skirt was three feet long, mopping the ground and swaying, some of the roses on it were budding to be released, some were delicate, and they looked vivid, she tied a two-finger-wide hibiscus-colored brocade belt around her waist, outlining the willow waist of Yingying's hand, and a Pisces purse fell on it, a warm jade round pendant, and a pair of embroidered shoes with sharp beaks and tassels were worn at her feet.
Fang Qiao's heart tightened, and she hurriedly saluted Qin Daixin.
Qin Dai said lightly: "Get up." He walked in front of Fang Qiao and sat down beside Su.
Fang Qiao only felt that there was a strange fragrance at the end of her nose, the smell was like a valley orchid, elegant but not strong, it smelled terrible, compared with others, the fragrance on her body was simply vulgar.
Just when Fang Qiao was secretly annoyed, she heard Qin Daixin say: "My daughter has already eaten." β
Fang Qiao raised her eyes and looked at Qin Daixin, only to see that she combed a very rich peony bun, and the silk blue hair was not pulled up, but two strands of hair were left around her neck behind her ears. She wore a warm and flawless mutton fat jade phoenix hairpin on her head, two red gold and ruby-shaped flower-shaped Huasheng pinned in her hair nest, and a red gold cloisonnΓ© eight-treasure hairpin on each side, which was really precious and beautiful.
Qin Daixin has always disliked expensive jewelry, she usually only dresses lightly, but today she has changed her normal, and her clothes are extraordinary, her eyebrows are like green daisy, her skin is like condensation, her breath is like a quiet orchid, her eyes are clear like a spring, her lips are like delicate flowers, the sunlight outside the window falls on her body, making her body shrouded in soft sunlight, and the whole person looks beautiful, bright and compelling, as if the goddess is in the lower realm, so beautiful that people dare not look at it directly.
Fang Qiao's heart tightened, only to feel that the acid in her stomach couldn't stop bubbling outward, she unconsciously grabbed the handkerchief with both hands, her eyes were full of fire, and she burned with hatred.
