169 small gifts

When Rong Yi left, he still didn't see Yang Lan, and when Yang Lan received a big box of gifts, she knew that Rong Yi had left, drank a bowl of soup, and praised her for how well the soup was boiled.

Yang Lan listened to Biyun's gesture, with a faint smile on her face, her apricot eyes were bright and charming, with a bright and agile beauty.

"Miss, you don't know, when the slaves and maids went, they were all covered in sweat, Rong Gongzi sat on the ground without any image, the second master was still open, but Rong Gongzi was embarrassed to untie the placket, I just opened the neckline when I went, but I didn't untie the clothes, the hot back was sweaty, I sent hot soup, Rong Gongzi was very face-saving, drank three bowls in one go, and ate a lot of kelp and pork ribs, one said it was delicious, but it was a little salty."

Yang Lan snorted and covered her mouth and smiled, a pair of apricot eyes narrowed into a slit, and she fell on the couch with a red smile, she accidentally forgot it, put salt twice, but it was salty, she thought that it would be enough to drink a bowl at most, who knew that he would drink so much.

Biyun looked at her disapprovingly, "Miss, I saw that Rong Gongzi poured a stomach of water back with thirst." ”

"Giggles! I didn't mean to, I just forgot for a moment, I just put salt one more time, and besides, I didn't know he was coming. Yang Lan pouted and tilted her head unconvinced, with a mischievous smile on her face.

"What kind of gifts did Gongzi Rong get for you? Such a big box is really enough, isn't it this time coming, I remember he was going to prepare for the exam. Why don't you make a bookbag for someone, that is also the meaning? Biyun cautiously suggested.

Yang Lan thought about it, and for the sake of so many gifts, she nodded happily. "Okay. Let's make him a book bag. ”

I thought it would be good to change the schoolbag from my previous life and make it for him. The army-green schoolbag I used when I was a child in my previous life is a bit like the current blanket, but it is slightly square and has a different shape, but it looks similar inside, and it is convenient to use things.

After thinking about Yang Lan's drawing on the paper, Biyun leaned aside to look at it and asked, "Is this a blanket?" Why doesn't it look like it? ”

"I came up with it based on the blanket. It was changed to a square, covered with a whole piece of cloth on the outside, and the inside could be divided into several layers, which could contain different things, and my little bag was similar to this, but one was semicircular and the other was square. ”

"Then Miss make it for me to see, it would be nice if it was convenient for us to make one and pack some things." Biyun had actually taken a fancy to Yang Lan's little bag for a long time, but she was embarrassed to ask for it.

Yang Lan is no longer affectionate, "It's better to make a bookbag." Girls don't look good, I'll draw you a few looks when I get back. You go to make it look much better than this, you go and help me find some coarse cloth, I'll make this book bag, the coarse cloth is wear-resistant, practical. ”

"Okay, I'll go." Biyun was also very excited to see what the bookbag would look like.

Soon Qingya brought a piece of coarse cloth, it was enough to make a bookbag, Yang Lan took the scissors and gestured, cut off a piece, put a soft lining on the inside and began to sew it up, the bookbag is very simple, it doesn't take much to make it, the outside is a blue coarse cloth, and the inside is lined with a soft cloth, which will not scratch the books, and it is divided into small bags of different sizes, which can be used to hold some small things.

The outermost is embroidered with pines and cypresses, which means that it is also very good, simple and generous, and a long bag can be hung on the body.

Biyun's eyes widened in shock, and he took the bookbag and looked at it in reverse, "It turns out to be really simple, but it looks so ingenious." ”

Yang Lan smiled and picked up a piece of cloth again, made a pen case with a brush, four fingers wide and thin, rectangular, tied with a rope, there is a soft muslin cloth as a mat, sewn a few small locks, when using the brush into the lock to fix, a section of the brush head cushioned with a soft cloth will not hurt the pen head, it is very convenient to carry.

"Hey, this is so convenient, it's very much like the doctor's bag for silver needles, it's similar to this." Biyun said in surprise.

Yang Lan didn't argue, but nodded in agreement, "It's not like I just remembered it after reading the Taiyi's acupuncture bag, but one big and one small, it's very easy to use a brush." Put this up and give it to him when Rong Yi comes next time. ”

Biyun put everything into the bookbag and nodded with a smile, "Don't worry, Gongzi Rong will definitely like it, I don't like it all." ”

Yang Lan pursed her lips and muttered: "Who wants him to like it, but he doesn't like to pull it, I just save effort, I have to embroider the dowry, and I have to work on him, I can really make trouble." ”

Biyun couldn't help but laugh when she heard the young lady's unconvinced and hard mouth, obviously she was still worried in her heart, but she didn't admit it. As soon as I said to make a book bag, I immediately started it, and I did it quickly and well, and so did the pair of boots, which were made in two days in a row, without any delay, but I was still stupid and didn't understand anything.

Yang Lan sat there doing nothing, looking at the big box in the corner, she couldn't help but run over and move to her, open the box, take out the contents one by one and rummage through them, playing with them, laughing for a while, muttering for a while.

Biyun smiled and shook his head, and withdrew from the outside world to do his own thing, with these things to pass the time, Miss wanted to come and play for a while, and the province was always bored.

The days are slowly flowing, Yang Lan was locked up at home embroidering dowry, and she was not allowed to go out again, except for occasionally entering the palace to visit the queen mother and the emperor, and Sister Cui asked her to go to the house to play next time, Yang Lan was very happy, it was rare to be able to go out and let off steam, and she came back for a day with her proud gifts, and she was not allowed to go to other places, and some posts were also refused.

Rong Yi really came less, just once in ten days and half a month, his main energy is to study at home, and he will have a spring scientific examination in the coming year, this is a big deal, and he can't divide his energy.

However, Yang Lan heard a lot of news, and Mrs. Rong finally made up her mind to send her most beloved young son to the barracks, in order not to let herself be soft-hearted, she specially came to ask her mother and sent her to the barracks where her father was familiar, firstly, not to let her heart be soft-hearted, and secondly, to be able to train the child to grow up.

If she is sent to her own barracks, she is not very relieved, after all, the eldest son is also in the barracks, and he is doing a good job, if there is really any bad intention, then the child will be finished. After thinking about it, in order to be more proper, I still came to ask my in-laws for help.

There is also the eldest son of Rong Fu. Now he is a guard in the palace. I heard that it's not bad, and it's already married, and I plan to get married next year, the woman's family is a five-grade official, from the northwest, and she has been following Rong Houye, and she is the daughter of his family.

Yang Lan wondered if it was true, and felt that the eldest son could not attack the knighthood. So I want to give it a go in terms of military merits, although the woman's family is a five-grade official, but she is in the northwest all the year round, and she may not have no connections, and in the future, maybe the eldest son can have a future in the northwest frontier, after all, the promotion of the military attache is still relatively fast.

But she just thought about it in her heart, but she wouldn't ask, after all, it was the matter of the eldest son, and it was still a little far away from herself, and she would talk about it in the future.

Rong Yi took the bookbag from his brother. I heard my brother say that I was very happy, and my brother was very greedy when I saw it. You have to have someone who looks better than him, so Yang Lan can't cry or laugh, you say that he doesn't study, what's the use of that, how stupid he usually is.

Yang Pei had to make a fuss and ask for one, so Yang Lan had to sew another satin, which was beautifully embroidered and given to his brother, which blocked his brother's complaint of jealousy. Thinking that the third brother and the fourth brother and the fifth brother also have to prepare for the exam, let's just do a few more, it's also a little bit of a sister's intention, so you can't favor one over the other.

Yang Lan made a few more bookbags with her own hands, the same blue coarse cloth, and the embroidery patterns were different, but the pencil case and the bookbag were the same, so Biyun personally sent them to the fourth brother and the fifth brother, and when Biyun came back to learn to speak, the two of them were very happy. The third brother's can only wait for the second sister to come back and send it again.

It's been two months in a blink of an eye, and the eldest brother finally came with a letter after disappearing from silence for a long time, saying that he would go home in half a month and let her wait, in order to personally take the school Rongyi exam and witness his marriage ceremony.

Yang Lan was happy in her heart, she read the letter again and again, and then asked Biyun, "Biyun, do you say that I will write a letter to my brother and ask him to bring some gifts back?" ”

Biyun pondered for a moment and persuaded tactfully, "Miss, the uncle is out to do serious business, although the things in Jiangnan are more exquisite, but our family is not nothing, forget it this time, next time let the steward bring you some fun back?" ”

As soon as Yang Lan saw Biyun's cautious expression, she knew that she wanted to be crooked, and smiled helplessly: "You want to be crooked, I want my brother to pick a gift that a girl likes to come back, I want to give it to Sister Cui, and also make Sister Cui happy, does the hairy foot son-in-law always come to the door?" ”

Biyun breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's not impossible, if you use my Yang family's secret passage to transmit letters, you can still be faster, but if you let Hou Ye know about this, you will be scolded." ”

Yang Lan thought about it, sat up from the couch, and looked determined to win, "I'll go to Daddy." ”

Biyun was embarrassed to follow behind, wanting to persuade, but he felt that Miss was not for herself, and it was not necessarily beneficial to do so, the Cui family was a big family, and its influence should not be underestimated.

Yang Lan rushed into the study in a hurry, "Daddy, I have something to ask you." ”

Yang Xu was talking to Yang Pei, but was interrupted by Yang Lan, who glared at her dotingly, "What's going on, the girl's family doesn't look quiet." ”

Yang Lan shrunk her neck, stuck out her tongue and showed a cute smile, ran over and pulled her father's sleeve and shook it, "Dad, I was wrong, I must remember to knock on the door next time." ”

"Well, what is the matter with you? We're talking. ”

"Dad, is the eldest brother coming back, if you don't write to the eldest brother, can I add a word." Yang Lan hit this idea, she didn't believe that her father didn't give instructions on the affairs of Jiangnan, there would definitely be letters, she just had to fill in a sentence.

Yang Xu looked at his daughter suspiciously, "What are you going to do?" ”

Yang Lan lowered her head and her two fingers were unnaturally together, and Nuo Nuo said: "It's not easy for my eldest brother to go to Jiangnan, let him bring some girl's gadgets from Jiangnan back to me, Dad?" She pleaded pitifully, but she didn't dare to say that it was for Sister Cui, for fear that her father would not like Sister Cui, so she could only carry it on herself.

Yang Xu only glanced at her, "Well, you go!" ”

Yang Lan looked up at her father, and then at her second brother, her big eyes had a question mark written on it, do you want to add it?

Yang Pei squeezed her eyes at her sister and nodded, meaning that I will get it done for you, you can go.

Yang Lan went out and took advantage of his father's inattention, and shouted two words to the second brother silently, "Sister-in-law." ”

Yang Pei nodded with a smile, waved at her, and said that she understood, and Yang Lan left satisfied. (To be continued......)
