Chapter 35: Time is Quiet
Xue Pingping stepped across the door of the mansion, paused, and walked towards the carriage again, rummaged through the box held by the little servant, and found a delicate strip-shaped sandalwood box, the box was engraved with cloud patterns, and he saw Huang Gonggong put an incomparably luxurious gilded flying phoenix inlaid jade hairpin into it, and the gorgeous and noble hairpin was matched with the noble and bright dream of seclusion.
Carefully hiding the sandalwood box in his arms, he hurried towards the embroidery courtyard, he wanted to see her soon, the good news of being an official, the first to tell her, and then give her this gift, let her surprise.
But when he arrived at the gate of Xiushui Courtyard, he slowed down again, thinking about whether he should hold some identity, so he is now a person next to the emperor, how can he be a licking dog? But immediately he shook his head again and denied it, aren't the emperor's sides all licking dogs? Besides, it's his wife, and it's right to please his wife!
Xue Pingping strode into the Xiushui Courtyard, did not see the figure of the maid, and listened to it, and there was a sound of talking in the inner room.
"Wow, that's beautiful!"
"It's like a fairy descending from the Nine Heavens!"
Xue Pingping walked in, and saw a slender figure turning in a circle, delicate flowers, swaying with her figure, colorful phoenix butterflies seemed to be dancing in the flowers, lining her a bright and delicate face, like a pearl, brilliant and dazzling.
Meng Youyou turned around twice, only to find that Xue Pingping came in at some point, and was staring at her dumbfounded at the moment, as if she was settled.
"Young Master! You're back? Luzhu screamed, and Xue Pingping came back to his senses.
He walked towards Dream Youyou step by step, his eyes blazing.
Meng Youyou didn't know what he was going to do, he just felt a little weak and flustered, this dress is beautiful, but it's too ostentatious.
I saw Xue Pingping standing still in front of her, poking out a box from his arms, he opened the box, took out an extremely beautiful flying phoenix hairpin, and raised his hand to put it on her head.
"It's so beautiful, it's even more beautiful with this hairpin, and the fairy is not as good as you." Xue Pingping admired from the bottom of his heart, she firmly attracted his attention, and he looked at it carefully, admiring this stunning beauty.
Meng Youyou was a little uncomfortable, and she was so praised by a man in front of her, she was ashamed and embarrassed. Rosewood looked at the time, went to the small kitchen, and Luzhu went to fetch hot water.
"That hairpin, it doesn't look extraordinary, did you buy it?" She was looking for words to distract Xue Pingping's attention, and it was really uncomfortable to be stared at like this all the time.
"It was rewarded by the emperor, I saw a unique style, which suits you very well." Xue Pingping moved his gaze to the dress and boasted: "This skirt is really exquisite, the flowers and butterflies are the same as the real one, you are the flower fairy." ”
"This is designed by Brother Gu himself, and tomorrow I will wear it to the Silk Village to advertise the Zhuangzi."
As soon as Mengyou's words were finished, Xue Pingping's eyes became cold with appreciation, it was given by Gu Nanzhi, and it was given to his wife, ahh This skirt is fancy and vulgar! Still cutting corners, your arms can't cover it, what design, I don't know if women can't show their skin at will? Xue Pingping's eyes were full of disgust, and he regretted the words of praise he had just said.
But he could see that Meng Youyou was very satisfied with this dress, and also liked these flowers and butterflies that surrounded her, she stretched out her slender hand, stroked and stroked the flowers and butterflies, and praised: "This embroidery is really a must, the color and form, are so realistic, it must have taken a lot of effort to make such a piece." ”
"Madam, although this dress is beautiful, it is not very convenient to wear, and it is too fancy to be worn daily."
"You're right, this dress is so beautiful, I really don't want to wear it often, I have to take good care of it. But tomorrow I still have to wear it to the silk village. ”
Zi Sandalwood came in with dinner and set up two pairs of dishes and chopsticks, which made Xue Pingping's heart a little less resentful. He believed that Meng Youyou had his own in his heart, and it was all Gu Nanzhi's self-inflicted affection and deliberate seduction.
Meng Youyou went to change her clothes, cleaned her hands, and sat down at the dinner table, and Xue Pingping also sat opposite her by herself. Seeing her change her clothes, she felt a lot more comfortable, but the hairpin he inserted for her was no longer on her head.
"Do you like that hairpin? Why don't you wear it? Xue Pingping asked softly.
"That hairpin is gorgeous and precious, and I don't want to wear it casually, so I have to treasure it. Thank you! Meng Youyou said seriously.
"You are my wife, you should give you something, you can wear it if you like, and I will give you more and better things in the future, it's nothing."
Meng Youyou looked at him suspiciously, why was Xue Pingping so generous and arrogant?
"I will be an errand boy by the emperor's side in the future, and the rewards in the palace will only increase." Xue Pingping showed a proud smile, "I'll hand it over to Madame, you can do whatever you want." He reached out and peeled a shrimp and handed it to Mengyou.
Meng Youyou was a little shocked, he went to the emperor's side on an errand so soon? When what's the difference? How did he do it? Many small question marks popped up in her heart, but she didn't plan to ask him, so let's eat quietly.
But Xue Pingping couldn't be quiet, and finally had the opportunity to get along with her, so why should he brush up on her presence more.
"Madam, I haven't been with you for the past two days, and the matter in your Zhuangzi has been handled smoothly, right? Is there anything I need to do? ”
"It's all dealt with, we have already implemented the idea you came up with last time, and we have found an experienced Mr. Wang, who plans to plant grapes, roses, and lilies."
"It's all good, the emperor also loves to eat grapes, maybe he will be sent to the palace directly. Roses and lilies are also excellent, they have special meanings, and they can be used as a gimmick when the time comes, so that they will not be sold out. Xue Pingping thought about the meaning of flowers, and his eyes became deep.
"But these two kinds of flowers are rarely seen, and I don't know what they look like, so let's plant them first."
Seeing that Meng Youyou was very curious about these two flowers, Xue Pingping paid attention and wanted to find a chance for her to take a look.
"Do you know what the meaning of roses is?" Xue Pingping asked.
"Isn't it just flowers? What else does it mean? "I didn't know it, so I felt that it was impossible to eat quietly.
"Roses represent love, and men and women love each other, so they send roses to express their affection." Xue Pingping said with a smile.
"That's a nice gimmick." Meng Youyou nodded and remembered it in his heart.
"Lilies also have special meanings." Xue Pingping continued to induce.
"Huh?" Dream is indeed a little curious.
"It means the love of husband and wife, and a hundred years of good togetherness." Xue Pingping looked at Mengyou's eyes and said word by word.
Meng Youyou nodded, indicating that she understood.
Love each other, husband and wife love, a hundred years of good together. It's so good, who doesn't want such a happy love, who doesn't want to be a husband and wife who have been in love for a hundred years?
Xue Pingping also stopped talking, and from time to time he sandwiched vegetables for Meng Youyou, and softly persuaded her to eat more, really like a husband who loves his wife, and Meng Youyou ate quietly and dignifiedly, silently accepting his own care and care.
Time is quiet.
