Chapter 234: Diversification

Hearing this, Concubine Hu leaned over and blocked Liu Tingxi's sight.

Liu Tingxi showed a suspicious look, and she hurriedly smirked.

"The light is a little dim, I get closer and see better."

Seeing Liu Tingxi nodding and smiling, she took the opportunity to secretly give okra a look, but her humble and teachable look on her face attracted all Liu Tingxi's attention.

"Sister, slow down, my sister didn't really see those stitches just now."

Hearing this, Liu Tingxi slowed down his movements, and embroidered while explaining one stitch and one thread.

"Then you have to take a closer look, these stitches are a bit difficult."

Okra was optimistic about the opportunity, moved small steps, and quietly moved behind Liu Tingxi.

She took out the jade hairpin that Concubine Hu had given her earlier from her arms, and her eyes were full of sinisterness.

Passing sideways, okra grabbed the hairpin and secretly went out, and Liu Tingxi under the candlestick didn't notice it at all.

Okra looked east and west along the way, and sneakily touched into Liu Tingxi's yard.

She grasped Liu Tingxi's bedroom with ease, and then the faint starlight, after she patrolled the room for a week, her eyes locked on Liu Tingxi's bed.

Okra pulled the corners of her mouth, revealing a wicked smile, and then she hid the jade hairpin under Liu Tingxi's bed.

Getting up and patting the dust on her body, okra leaned over and poked her head out of the door.

Hurry up now!

Seeing that there was no one around, okra was a little bold to go out, softly closed the door, and secretly withdrew.

At this time, Shen Ruoxiao happened to come back from Huanyifang, and when he passed by Liu Tingxi's yard, he saw okra's every move.

She quickly crouched down, pressed the water to the side, and stretched out her index finger to press it to her lips.

It wasn't until Okra's back disappeared into Liu Tingxi's courtyard that Shen Ruoxiao stood up, her starry eyes narrowed.

"Shui Su, this girl looks a little familiar, is she serving by Concubine Hu's side?"

Hearing this, Shui Su rubbed his eyes, looked carefully for a long time, and nodded very surely.

"Miss, it's the maid next to Concubine Hu, the girl who called okra."

Shen Ruoxiao rubbed her chin, her eyes were shrewd, and she hooked the corners of her mouth.

Concubine Hu's maid was sneaky in Sister Liu's room late at night, this matter is not simple!

"It seems that Concubine Hu is doing something again."

At this time, Concubine Hu pretended to be humble and asked for advice, while waiting anxiously.

She kept tapping her feet on the ground, glancing at the door from time to time.

Why did okra go and haven't come back for so long?

She was in a hurry, and she didn't see a familiar figure appear at the door.

The two glanced at each other, showed a meaningful smile, and nodded randomly and secretly.

Concubine Hu then stretched out her hand and patted the corner of her mouth twice, pretending to yawn.

"I'm sorry sister, my sister may be stupid and stupid, and she hasn't learned it for so long."

The implication was already obvious, Liu Tingxi saw that Concubine Hu yawned one after another, so he smiled and put down the embroidery needle in his hand.

"Since my sister is sleepy, my sister won't bother, and I will have time in the future, as long as you are willing to learn, you can come to me at any time."

After sending Liu Tingxi away, Concubine Hu immediately pulled up her face, raised her hand and rubbed her somewhat stiff cheeks.

"Why did you go for so long? Dealing with this Liu Tingxi's smile that hurt my face is sour. ”

Okra hung her arms in fear and moved forward with small steps.

"Master, this Concubine Liu's courtyard is even shabby, and the slave and maid have been looking for a long time to find a good place to plant stolen goods."

Hearing this, Concubine Hu's complexion softened, she pulled the corners of her mouth, and a treacherous smile flowed from the corners of her eyes.

"Now that everything is arranged, you can go and release the news of this concubine's loss!"

Okra's eyes froze, and he immediately stepped forward and attached himself to Concubine Hu's ear, and whispered: "Master, no, now is not a good time to release the news, you calm down first." ”

Concubine Hu's pupils contracted, and she grabbed okra's collar, her face was fierce.

"Okra, what do you mean? It's not a good time yet, when is a good time? ”

Okra was strangled by the collar, some breathless, and a small face was red.

"Lord...... Master, please ...... Listen to the slave. ”

Hearing this, Concubine Hu let go of her hand disdainfully, and wiped her fingers with a silk scarf with disgust.

"Good...... You said, if you can't say why, don't blame the concubine for being polite. ”

Okra immediately fell to her knees, gasping for breath, and she kowtowed as she spoke.

"Master, this Concubine Liu has just gone back, and it will be very deliberate for you to release the news here."

When Concubine Hu heard this, she nodded again and again, and her eyes became a little deeper.

Okra is not unreasonable, and if you release the news in such a hurry, I am afraid that it will not have the desired effect.

Seeing the hesitation on Concubine Hu's face, Okra's knees on the ground hurriedly moved forward.

"Besides, on this big night, few people go to count the jewelry, so it's better not to put the news now."

This time, Concubine Hu was convinced, she put down the towel to wipe her hands and glanced at the dresser.

Indeed, this is not the right time.

Having made up her mind, Concubine Hu raised her eyebrows and hooked her hands with an arrogant face.

"Get up! Then let Liu Tingxi live a few more days! ”

Hearing this, Okra breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed, flattering and complimenting. All right

"The master is wise!"

The next day, Shen Ruoxiao went out early in the morning as usual, and Shui Su followed behind her as if she hadn't woken up.

"Miss, you don't seem to be the same today as before."

"Different?" Shen Ruoxiao lowered his head and looked at his body with a blank expression, "What's the difference?" ”

Shui Su yawned and stepped forward to straighten the purse on Shen Ruoxiao's waist.

"It's not that the dress is different, but the spirit is different, in the past, the young lady never got up until the third pole of the day, and most often got up at dawn."

Hearing this, Shen Ruoxiao poked Shui Su's cheek a little helplessly, and then brushed the broken hair of her sideburns behind her ears.

"The current payment is for us to have a better life in the future."

After speaking, she playfully hooked her nose, turned around and strode towards the restaurant.

Seeing this, Shui Su had to trot to follow, but he was still thinking about Shen Ruoxiao's words in his mind.

It seems that Miss really has her own plans, so she can't hold Miss back.

Shui Su's eyes were firm, then he gritted his teeth and quickened his pace to follow.

"Miss, are you still going to Zuixiang Building today?"

Shen Ruoxiao raised a hand and waved it behind his head.

"Don't go, there is a good show to watch today, we have to diversify."

Shui Su was confused when she listened, she muttered to herself, and her little face was full of tangles.

Since the young lady married to the palace, how can two words pop out of her mouth from time to time that she doesn't understand, but she feels very powerful.

Shui Su thought about it for a long time and didn't come up with a reason, she held her head and shook it from side to side twice.

Forget it, I don't want to, it's enough that she's mainly a young lady.

The two soon came to the restaurant, and as soon as they entered the door, they saw Gu Xiuyuan staring at the two panda eyes and busy on the counter.

Shen Ruoxiao walked over with some curiosity and knocked on the counter.

"Eh, eh...... Mr. Gu, did you go as a thief last night? Why are there two dark circles under your eyes that are so big? ”

Hearing this, Gu Xiuyuan involuntarily reached out to cover his eyes and buried his head in his sleeves.

"Boss, don't laugh at me, it's not because I drew a notebook for you."

As he spoke, he had already taken out a stack of rice paper that had been drawn under the counter and handed it to Shen Ruoxiao.

Seeing this, Shen Ruoxiao was shocked, hurriedly picked up the rice paper, flipped it up one by one, and couldn't stop exclaiming.

"Mr. Gu, you didn't sleep last night and you were painting this?"

While flipping, the corners of Shen Ruoxiao's mouth rose higher and higher, but a trace of guilt flashed in his eyes.

At this time, Tianshun jumped over and snatched the rice paper.

"Not really! Last night, Mr. Gu almost dipped the steamed buns in ink and ate them in order to paint these. ”

Now Shen Ruoxiao couldn't hold back any longer, she lay on the counter and laughed sullenly.

"Mr. Gu, you are too dedicated, I don't have a double salary!"

While joking, Shen Ruoxiao glared at Tianshun and snatched the rice paper in his hand at once.

"Mr. Gu, I took a cursory look, you can change this story a little!"

Hearing this, Gu Xiuyuan raised his head nervously, and looked at Shen Ruoxiao with a pair of eyes.

"Boss, Xiu Yuan thinks your story is too tragic, so he added some interesting plots to it."

Seeing that Gu Xiuyuan was nervous, Shen Ruoxiao patted his arm with a light smile.

"Relax, I don't mean to blame you, these things you added are very good, vivid and interesting."

After speaking, Shen Ruoxiao looked at it seriously, but his hand unconsciously climbed to Tianshun's shoulder.

"Oh good! I'd like to discuss something with you! ”

Hearing this, Tianshun looked at Shen Ruoxiao vigilantly, and put his hands on the defensive.

"Boss, what are you trying to do with your bad idea?"

Shen Ruoxiao raised his hand angrily and slapped him on the head, and the rice paper rolled up against Tianshun's chest.

"What a bad idea, don't talk nonsense."

"What do you want me to do, boss?"

Tianshun carefully moved his body, so that the scroll in Shen Ruoxiao's hand was not facing him.

Shen Ruoxiao pressed him hard against the edge of the cabinet and knocked on his chest with a smile.

"Tianshun, you are smart and clever, I will hand over the task of storytelling to you!"

When Tianshun heard this, his jaw almost dropped, and he grinned awkwardly.

"Boss, you're kidding! How can I tell a story, I don't know a few big words. ”

As he spoke, he pointed his fingers and moved the scroll away from his chest, one sideways ready to slip away.

Unexpectedly, just as he was about to lift his feet, his arm was tightly locked by Shen Ruoxiao and he couldn't move.

"It's okay, it's all pictures, not much text, I believe you!"

As he spoke, Shen Ruoxiao winked at Tianshun twice with one eye, and the picture scroll in his hand was all stuffed into Tianshun's arms.

Tianshun instantly made a bitter face, and he looked at the picture scroll in his arms and couldn't cry or laugh.

"Alright! Don't blame me for not saying it well! ”

After speaking, he held the scroll, clenched the backyard, and found a robe and a folding fan.

After dressing up, Tianshun walked out with a good look, looking like a storyteller.
