CHAPTER XXXV
Alain touched the corner of his eye with a handkerchief and smiled. Ah Cheng looked at the glutinous and cute little girl in front of him, and before he knew it, he had quietly and slowly transformed from such a small doll into a slim girl now.
"It's just that this time I'm going to Northern Xinjiang, I'm afraid I won't be able to participate in your half-moon ceremony." Ah Cheng was a little disappointed in his eyes, and said regretfully, "I really want to see with my own eyes how our Alan wears auspicious clothes, next time I look at it, I'm afraid I have to wait until our Alan gets married!" ”
"Brother Ah Cheng is talking nonsense!" Alain said angrily, "I haven't finished yet! Where to get married so quickly! ”
"Good, good." Ah Cheng followed her words and said, "It's just that this gift is a gift, I still want to hand it over to you in person, and this time I will take this opportunity to bring it to you in advance." Ah Cheng took out a small box from his arms, and the lid was carved with a somewhat jerky orchid, and a small word "orchid" was engraved on the bottom of the flower.
Alan happily took it, gently touched the surface of the box, and asked in surprise, "You carved this box yourself?" ”
Ah Cheng nodded with a smile, and said a little embarrassedly: "I have made a lot of them, this is already the best one in it." ”
"I like it so much!" Alain opened the box as he spoke, and inside was a silver hairpin with tassels embedded in several small blue flowers on the top. ”
This blue hairpin was met by Alan and Ah Cheng at the small vendor's car stall when they were still in the Bone Fu Temple. At that time, Alan took a fancy to it at a glance, and the sugar gourd in his hand immediately became unfragrant. It's just that Alan didn't have any extra money in his hand, so he only looked at it a few more times, but he didn't expect Ah Cheng to find out about her small movements.
"I saw that you liked it at the time, so I secretly bought it and planned to make it a gift for you." Ah Cheng was a little embarrassed, and said, "It's just that things are changing a little fast, and you are already a princess, and hairpins or something are inevitably indispensable......"
"No, I don't lack any other hairpins, but this one." Alain said and inserted it on his slightly plain head, shook his head from side to side, and asked with a smile, "Is it good-looking?" ”
"Beautiful." Ah Cheng looked at her with a smile, but his eyes were wide open, as if he wanted to put all the girls in front of him into his eyes.
After chatting for a while, a young man with a mole on the tip of his nose came over and saluted Alain: "Meet Princess Xiling." Then he said to Ah Cheng, "Childe, Tuhe General was persuaded by a group of people to drink, and the gang joined forces, and the housekeeper asked the little one to find Childe to go over and block it." ”
This is also in disguise, recommending Ah Cheng in front of those dignitaries.
"Okay, I'll go." Ah Cheng responded, nodded at Alan and went to the hall.
Songhe walked over and took the box in Alain's hand and looked at it, and quipped: "It's hard for a son who practices swords to cut a small box with an embroidered knife, and he actually carved and engraved words." ”
Alan shook his head and said proudly, "It's good-looking, right?" ”
"Looks good!" Songhe glanced at her with a smile and said, "I'm afraid the banquet in front hasn't dispersed yet, and it is estimated that there are still a lot of people in this hall." Now, let's go and see Princess Daqi. ”。
Alain agreed, and although she was known as a sister on the surface, she didn't actually have much contact. She also wanted to know what kind of person her princess sister, Princess Daqi of Xu Kingdom, and the future general's wife were.
