Chapter 48: Chinese New Year's Eve is robbed
After Zhou Xianrui got the answer he wanted, it naturally didn't take long for him to leave. Xiao Jinxuan did as the Yang family wished, and finally did not go to Yixin Courtyard, but returned to her Wanxiang Pavilion.
As soon as she went up to the attic, she found that Zhuxin and Baizhu had also returned, and they were sorting things around, and her heart was warm.
"Why don't you stay at your aunt's to join in the fun, there will be a reward in the evening, what are you doing when you come back so early."
Zhu Xin and Bai Zhu looked up and saw that Xiao Jinxuan was back, and Zhu Xin hurriedly handed over a brocade box in his hand.
He said with a smile in his mouth: "What did Miss say, we are your slaves, naturally where you are, where we are, Miss, take a look, King Rui has sent a lot of things, you must like this hairpin." ”
If it weren't for Mother Qi of Yixin Courtyard, who was too busy to be too old, they would have come back with Xiao Jinxuan early in the morning.
This will Zhuxin hand over the things sent by King Rui, but all the good ones to Xiao Jinxuan, in order to distract her thoughts, and not to be bored and uncomfortable because of what Yang said.
When Xiao Jinxuan heard this, she took the brocade box with interest, opened it and saw a red plum hairpin, lying quietly in it.
No wonder Zhu Xin deliberately showed her this hairpin, Xiao Jinxuan has never cared about these external objects, but she only looked at this hairpin and liked it.
Just see this hairpin, the whole body is made of rosewood to make flower branches, and the plum blossoms carved with red agate are embedded on it, and the center of each plum blossom is used with citrine, embellished with the form of stamens, and the outermost part is then made of gold wire, outlining the texture of plum blossoms, which is beautiful and lifelike.
The plum hairpin is made of high-quality materials, but the shape is simple and elegant, and it does not fall into vulgarity at all.
Nine red plums, located in an orderly manner around the red sandalwood hairpin handle, one more is too complicated, one less is too simple, nine plum blossoms echo each other, the most complementary.
Xiao Jinxuan fiddled with it for a while before gently putting the hairpin into the brocade box.
"It's really a rare boutique, take it to the good life and keep it."
Zhuxin took the brocade box and asked puzzledly: "Miss, since you like it, why don't you wear it, don't you like red plums the most." ”
Baizhu on the side almost sorted out all the medicinal materials in the gift list, and then raised his head and glanced at Zhuxin angrily.
"Why is your heart so coarse, Miss is a boudoir woman, how can she put the things given by other men on her body at will, if you want to spread it, it will be misunderstood."
Zhuxin stuck out his tongue, knowing that what Baizhu said made sense, so he didn't say much, so he hurriedly turned around and stuffed the brocade box into the cabinet under the dresser.
Xiao Jinxuan stretched out her hand to take the gift list, looked at it carefully, and said softly: "There are exactly two rhino horn wooden combs here, and you two will take them out later." ”
Then, she continued: "Two buckets of Biluochun will be sent to my aunt, mutton fat Fulu Yupei will be given to Brother Yao, and that box of dim sum will be given to Qi's mother, she is old, and this soft and glutinous pastry is the most suitable for her to eat." ”
Then she thought for a while, raised her head and continued: "King Rui sent four hairpins, except for the plum blossom hairpin, the jade hairpin was sent to the third sister, and the other two red gold and gemstone hairpins, which were pleasing and charming when they looked at it, and sent them to Mengfu to Chang Jun, she liked this kind of red gold jewelry the most." ”
Aunt Shen's mother and daughter showed favor today, and she was naturally willing to exchange gifts. As for Meng Weijun, she was really worried, so when she got a good thing, she immediately left a copy for the other party.
A few masters and servants, divide the things according to the head, this busy work has also passed for a long time, and when everything is done, Xiao Jinxuan came to the ** side again and took out a brocade box from the corner cabinet.
"Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, I have prepared a silver reward for the people in our yard, you two will help me send it later."
Saying that, she handed the brocade box to Zhuxin, and after the other party opened it, she found that there were many small blessing bags inside, which were bulging and slippery, and there was no less silver stuffed inside.
Then Xiao Jinxuan reached into the corner cabinet for the second time, took out two large purses embroidered with the word Fu from inside, and reached out and handed them to Zhuxin Baizhu, one for each person.
"You have worked hard with me on weekdays, I have wrapped ten gold beads and ten small silver ingots, which means that it is perfect, Wen Xin will wait for tomorrow, I am giving it to him, you will take it first."
When Zhuxin and Baizhu heard this, they knew that this was Xiao Jinxuan's intention, and they didn't twist it, and they thanked the reward happily, and they received it in their hands.
After the two of them went out with the box, Xiao Jinxuan, who was left alone in the room, picked up a book as usual, leaned on the soft couch, and read it quietly.
It wasn't until it was getting dark that she couldn't read clearly, so she rubbed her eyes, put the book down, and looked out, only to find that it was already getting dark.
Knowing that when she was reading, Xiao Jinxuan didn't like to be disturbed, so Zhuxin kept guarding the door, and when she heard movement in the house, she walked in.
"Miss, let's still go to Yixin Courtyard for Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, just now when we sent things over, my aunt and everyone were very happy, and my aunt also said that if you are done, you can go over and eat together."
Xiao Jinxuan smiled self-deprecatingly when she heard this. "My aunt saw those things, so she didn't get angry, forget it, spread the word to the past, saying that I was not feeling well, so I wouldn't go over to eat and celebrate the New Year."
It's not that she didn't try to make Yang like her, but the other party's hot and cold personality finally wiped out her last bit of attachment.
She's not made of mud and doesn't feel it.
Her heart will also ache and chill. Suddenly, somehow, she suddenly didn't see the mother-daughter relationship of the Yang family as that important, since the other party didn't like her, she would just do her filial piety, and she wouldn't force anything else.
Zhu Xin was actually very surprised, because she **** followed Xiao Jinxuan, and knew better than others how the other party cared about the Yang family, hoping to please the Yang family.
But now if you don't go, you won't go, and before you were the other lady, you would never do this.
Looking up at Xiao Jinxuan, Zhu Xin saw only indifference and alienation from the other party's face.
Bai Shu, who was standing on the side, naturally saw Xiao Jinxuan's intentional avoidance, and asked in a low voice: "Miss, then should we prepare some meals ourselves, after all, today is Chinese New Year's Eve, so cold and unlucky." ”
Xiao Jinxuan smiled when she heard this and shook her head, nothing unlucky, in the past, on Zhuangzi, on Chinese New Year's Eve, she still picked up firewood and carried water, busy until the evening, to get a bowl of meat dishes, for her who can't eat meat a few times a year, it is considered a festival.
waved her hand and motioned for Zhuxin to go out, she was really not in a good mood, she just wanted to be quiet.
"You go out, tell Mother Li, just say what I ordered, set up a table of good dishes for our Wanxiang Pavilion, you can take those girls to have a good New Year, you don't have to call me, I'm tired and want to rest"
When she was left alone in the house again, Xiao Jinxuan hugged her knees and quietly looked out of the dark window, a feeling of desolation and loneliness quickly spread in her heart, and the darkness around her seemed to completely drown her.
At this moment, a sharp sound pierced the sky, breaking through the air, and then she saw an extremely brilliant firework, which suddenly burst into action, causing her to open her red lips slightly, and her eyes were full of surprise to look at the sky.
"It's so beautiful, but it's a pity that although the fireworks are beautiful, they are short-lived after all, too short-lived, if this fireworks can be eternal, how good it would be."
She was talking to herself, but she just sighed, but she didn't want her voice to fall, and it caused a burst of evil laughter.
"Hehe, I knew that you must be a person who likes fireworks, Xuan'er, it seems that you still know you very well."
This sudden sound frightened Xiao Jinxuan, who was in a trance, and couldn't suppress her exclamation, and her whole body sat up from the soft couch in an instant.
But because the movement was too big, her center of gravity was unstable and she jumped into the air, and as soon as her body was crooked, she went straight to the ground.
"Xuan'er, be careful."
The voice of concern came again, and just when Xiao Jinxuan closed her eyes and was about to have a close contact with the ground, suddenly a burst of golden orchid fragrance wrapped her tightly.
Then she fell into a warm embrace, and then she was gently placed on the soft couch.
She didn't even have to look at it, just by the familiar scent of flowers, she already knew who it was.
"Your Royal Highness, don't you think you are too good, this is my boudoir, how can you sneak in quietly, what is the difference between this and a thief."
Looking at Xiao Jinxuan's slightly annoyed appearance staring at him, Zhou Xianyu laughed in a low voice, and his handsome face was full of joy.
"Who said that the master sneaked in, obviously you were too involved in thinking about things, I opened the window and stood for a long time, you didn't notice me, fortunately it was me who came in, and if you changed it with bad intentions, you would have died a long time ago."
Xiao Jinxuan couldn't help but roll her eyes, and said with a laugh: "In this way, I should thank Your Highness, for just turning my window and not turning me into a dead man." ”
Obviously, it was the other party who acted like Meng Lang, and he turned her window at night, and now he is cheeky and blames her for being distracted, which is simply unreasonable.
Zhou Xianyu smiled evilly, and suddenly said: "Don't Your Highness, Your Highness will call me, just call me by my name." ”
Xiao Jinxuan turned her head directly, and said in a muffled voice: "I am humble, I am not worthy of calling His Highness's name, and besides, please don't call me Xuan'er in the future, you and I only have shallow friendships, Your Highness calls me like this, so that people will inevitably misunderstand when they hear it." ”
Zhou Xianyu casually lifted the edge of his robe, next to Xiao Jinxuan, and also sat on the soft couch.
A pair of handsome eyebrows furrowed, and muttered: "What is there to misunderstand, you are the master's woman, what is strange about me calling you Xuan'er, others can think whatever they like, and pay attention to what they do." ”
Xiao Jinxuan's eyes widened, and she looked at Zhou Xianyu in disbelief, what did the other party just say? When will she become his woman.
Xiao Jinxuan has also discovered now, but whenever she has a relationship with Zhou Xianyu, her calmness and calmness will be forced to disappear by the other party.
On the contrary, a sense of powerlessness will rise in her heart, so that she doesn't know what to do with Zhou Xianyu, this guy who doesn't play cards according to common sense and does his own thing.
And obviously, this time she still took this guy, and there was nothing she could do.
I saw Zhou Xianrui suddenly stand up, take Xiao Jinxuan's hand, and said in a loud voice: "Go, the master has prepared a Chinese New Year's Eve gift for you, and I will take you to see." ”
Xiao Jinxuan, who was dizzy by Zhou Xianyu's out-of-the-box personality, hadn't said a word of refusal yet.
She was hugged by the other party, and she was so shocked that she was about to break free, but Zhou Xianyu had already carried her to the window, and then smiled at her evilly.
"Woman, we can only go through the window, if you don't want to be discovered, just cover your mouth, if you scream and attract others, I will also forcibly take you away, then you will be embarrassed, you are not responsible."
After speaking, he didn't give Xiao Jinxuan a chance to refute, jumped into it, and flew down from the three-story attic, the figures of the two snuggled together, and completely disappeared into the room
