Chapter 43: The Little Wooden Plaque
"Hey~"
In the Ziyuan boudoir on the second floor of Yihong Courtyard, that Miss Li just supported her head with one hand, lying on the edge of the window, quietly looking at the Vermilion Bird Lake outside the window.
His eyes were blank and he didn't know what he was thinking, and he let out a long sigh.
It cannot be denied that just a perfect side face can be called a stunner in the world, worthy of the name of Oiran.
There is a little red lip on the pink face, and the expression is still ashamed. The delicate place is like a pink peach petal, and the demeanor has a beautiful orchid posture. Pretty like the peach of three springs, plain like the chrysanthemum of nine autumns, dressed in plain clothes, with clear eyes, trimming eyebrows and nose, and pear vortices on the cheeks, in short, it is a sentence: beautiful!
"Squeak--"
The door was pushed open from the outside, and it was the little maid in the hall just now, who happily walked into the house, lifted the hanging bead curtain, put the objects prepared by the guests in the hall in her hand on the table, and then looked at Miss Li who was stunned on the side.
"Miss, you are so beautiful~" The little maid said with envy.
Then Miss Li came back to her senses and said with a smile, "You dead girl, have you got all the things back?" ”
The little maid said, "Well, there are so many of them, Xiu'er almost can't hold it." ”
Miss Li was puzzled, "Didn't you say that it should be light, how can it be heavy?" ”
Xiu'er glanced at her own young lady and said, "It's not that Miss, you are too tempted, no matter how light the things are, you can't carry too many things, and just now there was a young man who actually handed over a bag of silver taels!" ”
He recalled, "But seeing that boy is wearing a coarse coat, that bag of silver may be his most valuable." ”
When Miss Li heard this, she was also surprised and said, "If you want to say that a big bag of silver taels is indeed valuable in other places, ...... here" looked at the night pearls, gold leaves, etc. on the table, and shook her head with a smile.
The little maid Xiu'er looked at her own young lady who was not interested, and also said in an old-fashioned manner, "Miss, you can't do this, you can't stay in this small house all day." ”
"Look at the girl Wang next door, she is not as long as one-ten-thousandth of yours, but she still found a rich son, not to mention the money every day, I heard that she has to redeem herself and go back to be a concubine."
Miss Li said, "So what, I don't lack silver and two flowers, and being a concubine may not be as comfortable as the life of the Qingqi people in Yihong Courtyard." ”
Xiu'er still wants to persuade again: "Miss ~ you ......"
Miss Li waved her hand lightly and interrupted: "Okay, don't say it anymore, I have my own measure." ”
Then Miss Li said lightly, "It's not a way to always see guests, so I thought of taking a valuable item to deal with Mother Wang, come on, see who I want to see today." ”
The little maid Xiu'er said happily, "That's it, there are so many rich sons, if you can't say it, there is a lady you like." After speaking, he took out a small bag from the objects on the table and handed it over, "Miss, I just saw it, here is an emerald ring, and also, here is a very exquisite jade pendant." ”
Seeing that his young lady was not interested, he took out a few other things and said, "Miss, these are the paintings and poems written by those literati and ink writers, look at them, do you like these?" ”
Miss Li suddenly looked at a sachet on the table, her eyes lit up, and she said, "This is the money bag full of silver you said?" ”
"Yes, miss, I just glanced at it, and there was some ordinary silver in it, and it seemed that there was a small card." The little maid Xiu'er recalled hard.
Miss Li opened the sachet suspiciously, and said, "You said this was sent by a boy in rough clothes?" ”
Xiu'er asked curiously, "Yes, what's wrong with Miss?" Well, I'll look at the registered information, and ——, his name is Si Niu Li, which is really a strange name. ”
While looking at the objects inside, Miss Li explained to Xiu'er, "This sachet seems to be a craft in the palace, but I have seen one before." ”
Then slowly poured the contents of the sachet in his hand on the table, that is, the ordinary money bag, nothing special, suddenly Miss Li saw a tassel in the middle of the silver two, curiously pulled it out, only to find that it was a small wooden card.
After reading it, he said with a little nervousness, "This is also that child's?" ”
Xiu'er said uncertainly, "En, because the boy is wearing a more 'conspicuous' outfit, the slave maid happened to see him put a small wooden card in this money bag, it should be this." Any questions? ”
"Hey, miss, leave him alone, aren't these silver and gold the ones you usually dislike the most, and the cloth boy can't see much money, these are probably all his savings, let's take a look at the treasures of other sons."
The girl Li said with a little palpitation: "Don't look at it, don't look at it." That's it. ”
Xiu'er took the night pearl in her hand and said, "Is this the one?" ”
Miss Li shook her head and said, "That's it, the son who gave the money bag." ”
"What? No, miss, you ......," Xiu'er said in disbelief.
"If you are told to go, you will go quickly, what do you need." Miss Li hurriedly arrived.
With a reluctant face, Xiu'er walked out with something else and returned to the hall to begin announcing the results.
After standing firm, he shouted, "Where is the temple prince?" Miss Li of Ziyuan Pavilion is invited. Everyone in the audience exclaimed after hearing this, and privately discussed who this temple boy was.
Looking at the noisy crowd, no one came out, and Xiu'er shouted again, "Is the temple prince here?" Temple cow rite childe? ”
Li Te, who was on the field, also woke up, it turned out that he was shouting to himself, and he forgot the "stage name" he had just taken. Then he followed Xiu'er to the second floor with a happy face.
Looking at the two people behind Li Te, Xiu'er said dissatisfiedly, "Why are you two following up?" ”
Zhang Han frowned and said, "The two of us are responsible for protecting our young master, where the young master goes, the two of us will naturally go too." ”
"It's still young master, haha. How can there be a young master dressed so shabby? In this way, even if it is a young master of any family, it will not be a rich master. Xiu'er scoffed.
"Okay, okay, our young lady has only invited you alone, let your subordinates wait below." Xiu'er said impatiently.
And everyone in the audience couldn't accept that a stinky boy in a shabby dress won this opportunity, and they all made a big noise.
Seeing that the scene was uncontrollable, the steward of Yihong Courtyard hurriedly stood up and shouted, "Who dares to make trouble here?" ”
After everyone was yelled at, they also remembered the background of this Yihong Courtyard, and they didn't make a sound one by one, but they gently complained about the injustice of Yihong Courtyard from time to time.
Fortunately, the valuables of the losers were also returned, and then they all dispersed with a little disappointment, and Yihongyuan also returned to the noise at the beginning.
At this time, Li Te stepped into the second floor, isolated the noise on the first floor, and quietly followed Xiu'er to the Ziyuan Pavilion. Xiu'er, who led the way in front, nagged endlessly, "You are favored by our young lady, that is your blessing." Remember to be careful what you say, and don't try to climb our young lady! ”
Then he looked at Zhang Han and Xiao Yuanzi, who just refused to leave, "There are also two of your subordinates, at most one will come in later, and the other will be outside the door." ”
