Chapter 68: The Gift

Now that he had made up his mind in his heart, An Jin quickly began to practice.

That night, after running to the dining room to have dinner with Lu Yunjing, he quickly ran back to his bedroom and began to draw the image of the heroic general he saw in his dream.

The time immersed in painting passed very quickly, and after just a few hours, a lifelike and mighty general appeared on the drawing paper, looked at the work he had created with satisfaction, put down the paintbrush and stood up and stretched for a long time.

Yang Ying, who had been staying by An Jin's side, saw that An Jin had woken up from that passion for creation, so he couldn't help but hurriedly took the wet towel and hot water basin that were placed aside, stood up and said to An Jin: "Miss An, are you done painting?" ”

An Jin nodded with satisfaction and said, "Yes, I'm done painting, I'm tired to death!" ”

As he spoke, An Jin yawned involuntarily, and Yang Ying, who was standing on the side, also yawned with An Jin, and An Jin couldn't help but laugh when he saw it.

Yang Ying touched her mouth embarrassedly and said, "Miss, you have been painting for too long, and I am really tired of waiting." ”

An Jin smiled and waved his hand and said: "It's okay, it's hard work for you to keep you waiting here, wait and clean up and let's rest, this painting is basically completed, and the little remaining place that needs a little rest will be talked about tomorrow, anyway, I have nothing to do with it, and General Lu's birthday is still some time." ”

Yang Ying gently covered her lips and said, "This painting ...... Is it Miss, are you going to give it to the general? ”

An Jin nodded and said, "Yes, Miss Ben was originally a painter, wouldn't it be just right to send a picture of the deputy general to General Lu as a birthday gift?" ”

Yang Ying smiled and praised: "It's true that Miss said, speaking of Miss, your painting is really exquisite, such a painting obviously knows that it was painted by Miss You, but looking at it like this, I always feel that the general inside seems to be able to jump out of it at any time." ”

Being said like this, An Jin suddenly felt a little embarrassed, she reached out and touched her nose and said, "..... Normal, normal, hahaha. ”

Yang Ying admired An Jin's exquisite painting skills while pouting, and asked, "Miss, the characters described in your paintings are General Lu himself?" ”

An Jin, who was going to wash up and rest, stood up on the spot after hearing Yang Ying's words, she thought about it in her heart, and then said: "Who knows, it's General Lu, or rather, it's what I expect General Lu to look like." ”

An Jin sighed softly in his heart: "Who knows, in the dream of that day, who is the heroic general I met?" ”

For a while, An Jin couldn't figure out who the person he saw that day was, so he said a word to Yang Ying, and An Jin went to the fire room to get things by himself

Prepare hot water for washing.

Yang Ying hurriedly put down the drawing paper, took a change of clothes in his hand, and followed behind An Jin, ready to serve.

The next day, An Jin got up from the bed satisfied, and made some touches and additions to the unfinished sketch yesterday, and after completing the painting thoroughly, An Jin was completely relieved, tomorrow is Lu Yunjing's birthday banquet, and it was just in time to complete the painting today.

The next day is Lu Yunjing's birthday banquet, in recent days, Lu Yunjing has continued to send invitations to various families in the capital, and today will come to the general's mansion to feast and drink, in recent days, many servants in the mansion have been busy, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a head hit on the heels.

And An Jin has been hiding in the room without going out under the pretext of restlessness and painting, Lu Yunjing has been busy enough these days, and he has not even had time to take care of military affairs, but fortunately, Emperor Li Chongxiao is sympathetic, and he has given Lu Yunjing a vacation these days, and caught Yunlan in the big tent in the army to top the bag.

Yunlan naturally complained bitterly, but this was the holy will, and he couldn't disobey it.

Early in the morning on his birthday, Lu Yunjing sent out attendants to stand at the gate to greet the guests, and he sat in the main hall waiting for the guests to take their seats.

An Jin got up early, rolled up the painting he had just painted yesterday, put it into a beautiful long box, walked behind Lu Yunjing and handed him the box and said, "Well, this is a birthday gift from this girl." ”

Lu Yunjing was a little puzzled: "Birthday? ”

An Jin reacted and suddenly said, "Oh, birthday gift." ”

Lu Yunjing glanced at An Jin with some surprise, and then said, "Hmm...... Have you been busy doing this for the past few days? ”

An Jin touched his nose a little embarrassed and said, "Ah...... Sort of, speaking of which, there are so many people coming to the General's Mansion today, what do I need to do? Do you sit in the lobby like you? Or hide in the backyard......"

Lu Yunjing touched his chin, and said in his heart: "Speaking of which, An Jin is neither my wife nor a relative...... It seems a little inappropriate to have her in the front hall with me, although I don't mind, but I guess Anjin will care about that. ”

With such considerations in his heart, Lu Yunjing shook his head slightly and said: "No need, according to the practice of the current dynasty, unless women are high-ranking and powerful, they are not qualified to welcome guests in the front hall, and once women do this, they are basically announcing to everyone that everything in this family is dominated by women, and men basically have no right to speak at home." ”

Lu Yunjing shrugged helplessly, and An Jin was also a little dumbfounded after hearing this: "So many things? It's also a little too scary. ”

Lu Yunjing smiled and said: "That's something that only those who pay attention to people, basically they are all scholars, bachelors and so on, I am a great general, and I pay attention to the supremacy of force, these things are me."

It's not particular, so it's all about your own volition, and if you want to rest in the back hall, you can go to the back hall to rest, and if you want to stay in the banquet hall and eat with everyone, it doesn't matter. ”

An Jin was a little stunned and said: "Then forget it, it sounds super troublesome, and you also invited a lot of literati and ink writers to come today, right?" In case some fussy old pedants come to find fault with you, to be honest, I'm also troubled, I'll rest in the study, if anyone asks...... Just declare that I'm not feeling well. ”

Lu Yunjing nodded and agreed: "Okay, everything is up to you, but ......"

Lu Yunjing was a little hesitant, and An Jin looked at him a little strangely and asked, "What's wrong?" Anything else? ”

Lu Yunjing shook his head: "No, there's nothing to say anymore." ”

It's not appropriate to talk about these things now, and I'll talk about it later when I have the chance.

Thinking so in Lu Yunjing's heart, An Jin looked at him a little strangely, and then nodded lightly and said, "Then I'll go to the study, if there is anything, you can call me again." ”

Saying that, the two separated, and after walking out of Lu Yunjing's field of vision, An Jin also breathed a sigh of relief, the gift had been sent safely, although Lu Yunjing did not open it in person to see what was inside, but judging from the shape of the gift box outside, it was not difficult to guess what was inside.

It seems that Lu Yunjing is also quite satisfied in his heart, since this is the case, his efforts in the past few days can be regarded as having results.

Thinking of this, An Jin couldn't help humming happily, Yang Ying followed behind An Jin, seeing that An Jin was in such a good mood, unconsciously, his mood also rose a lot.

The master and servant sat down in the study, An Jin buried his head in the draft, Yang Ying stood aside with a smile and watched An Jin's concentration, for a while, the master and servant in the room looked very harmonious.

It didn't take long for An Jin to hear a loud noise from the front hall, it seemed that all the guests had arrived, and the birthday banquet had officially begun, An Jin smiled and said to Yang Ying: "Hey, Yang Ying, wait a minute, let's go to the fire room to get some food and come back, they are happily eating and drinking in front, only the two of us are drinking the northwest wind in the study, which is really unfair." ”

Yang Ying was used to seeing An Jin's unremarkable appearance, and knew that it was pointless even if she stopped herself, so she had no choice but to follow An Jin.

Fortunately, Lu Yunjing had also instructed the cook in the fire room in advance, and they handed over the meal that had already been prepared to this seemingly extremely kind hostess, although it had not yet been explained on the surface, but in fact, in the eyes of the subordinates in the general's mansion, An Jin was already an unnamed hostess.

An Jin and Yang Ying took the food back to the study, the master and servant ate very unimpressively, and after a while, Lu Yunjing also found an excuse to visit An Jin in the study, An Jin asked with a smile: "How is it, is the banquet still happy?" ”

Lu Yunjing smiled helplessly: "Don't make trouble, there are so many people, and I'm not good at socializing, how can I have so many friends, where can I have fun eating with a group of people who are not friends." ”

An Jin couldn't help laughing and said, "It's good that I didn't go with you, otherwise I wouldn't be as miserable as you." ”

Lu Yunjing waved his hand and said, "Okay, since you all eat here, I don't care, I ran out under the pretext of going to the toilet, and I have to go back to entertain them quickly." ”

An Jin nodded and said, "Okay, you go get busy, I'm happy to eat here." ”

Lu Yunjing walked out of the study and breathed a sigh of relief, originally he thought that An Jin would be dissatisfied because he didn't go to the front hall to entertain guests, so he found an excuse to come and take a look in the middle of the banquet, and when he saw An Jin smiling so happily, he relaxed in his heart.

An Jin didn't know what Lu Yunjing was thinking, she and Yang Ying went back to the room to rest after they were full of wine and food, according to the original scheduled arrangement, the banquet at noon was a formality, and the relationship with the senior members of the DPRK and China, the banquet in the evening was a real private dinner celebration, and only a few friends who had a good relationship on weekdays were invited.

Naturally, on such an occasion, An Jin also needs to come forward, and in the guest list that An Jin saw a few days ago, An Jin also saw a rather familiar name.

- Zhou Xiyue.
