Chapter 28: Sheep Fat Jade Bracelet

The next day, I slept peacefully until I woke up naturally, and I didn't wake up until midnight. Stretch and think about how you haven't slept like this in years. It turns out that during the holidays, if I slept until this time, Eji would have called me a long time ago, and I would have had a meal after I got up. It would be nice if Eji was here......

Shaking his head, he didn't want to think about it anymore, and softly called Lan Qi to come in and help me wash and make up, and after a long time, I have become accustomed to letting Lan Qi help me do something that I could have done by myself, and gradually, it really looks like a person.

Sitting in front of the mirror, Lan Qi was behind me while carefully grooming my hair while telling me about this morning: "Father-in-law Liang came early in the morning to deliver the decree, saying that Long Live Lord let Gege have a good rest these days, and there is no need to go to the front, and the daily meal will be sent to Gege by the imperial dining room." Gege wants to eat and want, just let the slave go back to Liang's father-in-law. If you want to go to the queen mother, the emperor prepared a soft sedan chair for Gege. ”

I squinted and lazily replied, "Oh, what else?" ”

"This morning, the crown prince, Prince Cheng, and all the Belle Lords and Elder Brothers have all sent medicine."

"You said everyone sent medicine?"

"Yes."

I thought yesterday that Kangxi's announcement of the imperial doctor would be known to everyone, but everyone sent medicine? This was not what I expected, why? I don't understand.

"What else?"

"The Thirteenth Master sent someone to send something, but the person who sent it said that he wanted Gege to open it and see it himself, and the fourth master also sent another box, and the contents said that Gege would let you see it yourself." Lan Qi helped me grate my hair and asked me, "Gege, do you want to coil it up?" ”

I thought about it, but I didn't plan to go out today, so I said, "No, just scatter like this." You go and bring everything and I'll take a look. ”

After a while, Lan Qi came over with a large tray of things and placed the tray on the dresser for me to look at them one by one. I didn't even look at what the prince gave me, so I asked Lan Qi to find a place to put it away. The medicines sent by the fifth master, the ninth master, the fifteenth elder brother, the sixteenth elder brother, the seventeenth elder brother and the little eighteenth are all the same, and they are probably the common ointment of the elder brothers in the palace. The ointment sent by the eighth master is somewhat like the medicine given by Imperial Physician Li yesterday, but what Imperial Physician Li gave me is actually for the emperor's royal use, although the one sent by the eighth master is similar, but I always feel that there is something different, close the lid, and I put this box aside. The ointment sent by the fourth master, smelling fresh and elegant, without too heavy medicinal smell, was contained in a delicate and elegant cloisonné box, I looked at it and liked it very much, and put it in the small drawer of the dresser.

The thirteenth master sent a beautiful small sandalwood box, opened it, inside was a beautiful white jade carved grate, I held it in my hand and rubbed it carefully, the delicate Hetian jade carved with orchid patterns, I like it very much. There was a note pressed under the grate, on which the Thirteenth Master wrote: "This year's gift was obtained by chance before." I guess there's no one else to do with it except you. Cherish. ”

I smiled, put the grate in the box, and placed it properly on the dressing table. I opened the rosewood carved makeup box sent by the fourth master, and inside was a complete set of sheep fat jade jewelry - bracelets, carved hairpins, jade pendants, Yingluo rings and a pair of earrings, all of which were carved patterns of sheep fat jade flowers and birds, but the bracelet was a plain wide bracelet. I picked up the bracelet and looked at it carefully, and couldn't help but think of the white jade bracelet that my mother bought for me when I went to Xinjiang with my mother that year - it was a white jade bracelet that was not valuable, the jade color was a little blue, although the texture was quite delicate, but there was a lot of jade wool, and there was a small crack in it, but it was that bracelet, I liked it inexplicably, and I wore it for many years, until its cracks finally spread and shattered the whole bracelet......

I put this bracelet on my hand and found that the size was unexpectedly suitable, and I stroked it and felt its texture. I think I and this bracelet seem to be happy.

There was also a note in the box, I opened it and saw that there were only two beautiful words written - "birthday", I was stunned for a moment, understood what it meant, and couldn't help but smile, but it was in line with the temper of the fourth master.

I told Lan Qi to light a candle and bring a brazier, and I burned the note written by the Thirteenth Master and watched it turn to ashes. I asked Lan Qi to take it and dispose of it. In this palace, these things are better destroyed. Although I know this is the truth, but the two words of the fourth master, I put them away properly. Thinking of the two words of the fourth master, I feel very warm in my heart.
