Chapter 5 Apricot Blossom Brewing
When Shui Qianqiu had nothing to do, she went to the housekeeper to ask for some paper, pen and ink, and she thought that the left and right yards were going to be renovated, so it was better to repair them and live comfortably.
She graduated from the Department of Interior Design in her previous life, and after graduation, her family entrusted her to find a job in the Garden Bureau.
She stayed up all night drawing the blueprints, and after thinking about it, she went to the errand man with the money she had just given her.
"Master Yu, is it?" Shui Qianqiu put on a veil and came to find someone in person, that Master Yu was in charge of the renovation of the courtyard, and he was used to seeing nobles, so he was not surprised, and saluted: "Second Miss, what are your orders?" ”
"I don't dare to take orders, but I have a few drawings here, which are simple and clear. I wonder if the masters can renovate this yard for me according to the drawings? Shui Qianqiu handed over the drawings and a money bag.
Master Yu weighed it, chuckled lightly and returned the money bag: "The second girl said that she laughed, how to change this yard still has to listen to the housewife, after all, she is the one who pays the money, isn't it?" ”
Shui Qianqiu smiled, took back her design and left, Lu Zhi followed behind, looking at her being wronged, she couldn't help but speak: "Miss, you are too sexual, this is your yard, why can't you call the shots?" ”
"I can't help it, it's clear that the craftsman thinks I gave less silver." Shui Qianqiu sighed, sure enough, whether it is modern or contemporary, it is difficult to move an inch without money.
"Then Miss just let them bully? If you want me to say...... "Green branches hate iron and steel, and sure enough, this young lady will not be proud for a few days, and this will be lost by outsiders."
"What do you want you to say? Troublesome? That's not a joke, my situation is that even idiots outside can see it, what else can I do but endure at the moment? ”
Shui Qianqiu's eyes flashed faintly when she said these words, and she said that if she was not wronged, it was fake. A good person was a daughter of a noble family in her previous life, and she didn't worry about food and clothing all her life, but how did she cross over to such a family.
If she is an ordinary person, she also has a way to live, but now...... It's hard.
"Miss......" Lu Zhi looked at the tears in Miss's eyes and was a little overwhelmed, Shui Qianqiu smiled lightly and said, "That's it, since they don't want this silver, I'll take you outside to eat and drink in the sea, it's always enough." ”
"Miss, without the order of the master's mother, you can't leave the house easily." The green branch reminded softly, Shui Qianqiu glanced at the people around, and said: "If you can't go, go in secret, our courtyard is outside the house, look at you are tall, it shouldn't be difficult to climb over the wall." There's an old tree behind and we'll walk from there. ”
Lu Zhi panicked when he heard this, "Miss, this is a blue sky, if it is discovered by Madame, it will definitely be punished." ”
"If you are punished, I will punish you for you. Are you going or not? If I don't go, I'll call someone else. Shui Qianqiu, who had spoken, had already gone back to the house to change his clothes, and Green Branch gritted his teeth and went to change his clothes.
The two of them jumped from the ancient tree to the fence and turned out of the yard directly, and the green branch was frightened, and looked at the young lady with some admiration: "Little ...... Childe, I didn't see you so bold before. ”
"Once upon a time, once upon a time, it was useless to endure it for so long. Now it's time to let yourself live well, so that you don't enjoy it even if you die a day, thanks to it. ”
Shui Qianqiu held the folding fan, which was still left by her brother.
"Childe, why don't you bring out Autumn Leaves? Look, you like her more. "It's inevitable that the green branch will taste a little before it, what is so good about that dead girl in Autumn Leaves, and Miss will love it if she is born.
"Autumn leaves...... She's timid, and she's not as bold as you. "Shui Qianqiu doesn't believe in Autumn Leaves, it doesn't mean that he will believe in Green Branch, so he didn't tell the truth to her.
Lu Zhi didn't think much about it, the two of them found a similar restaurant, and ordered a lot of good food by the window.
"Wasn't it Miss Shui Er who just passed? Why did she dare to come out in broad daylight? "Opposite the restaurant is the Qin Pavilion where Shui Qianqiu went before, and in the position of the street window, there are two people sitting, it is Wen Beixu and Shen Shifeng.
Shen Shifeng was a little curious, but Wen Beixu raised his eyebrows and glanced at it.
"The concubine you chose for you doesn't look like a safe one, if you marry through the door, you should wear a few hats on your head." Shen Shifeng laughed playfully, while Wen Beixu stared at Shui Qianqiu's direction twice.
"The news of the inquiry said that Miss Shui Er is not favored, and her personality is cowardly and easy to handle, do you think this is talking about a person?"
Wen Beixu stared at Shui Qianqiu, and there was a lot of precaution in his eyes, Shen Shifeng also became serious, and said with a twisted brow: "Didn't you really drown your brain?" But then again, how could she fall into the pond, isn't it just to get your attention? ”
"She didn't look at me, and she didn't ask Lin Yuan to repay her."
Shen Shifeng laughed inexplicably, "Then what's going on?" Is she the one you picked for you? ”
"It's not important, the important thing is that the border pass is about to be won, and Shui Qianhan is coming back."
Wen Beixu had a touch of calculation in his eyes, put down the teacup in his hand, looked at Shui Qianqiu holding a pile of papers in a daze, hooked his lips and smiled: "Let's go, go over and have a look." ”
Shui Qianqiu ordered a few pots of wine, and was so frightened that Green Branch hurriedly stopped: "Miss, this wine can't be drunk, if it is discovered......"
"What are you afraid of, it's just that you will be reprimanded a few words or punished to kneel in the ancestral hall, and no matter how bad it is, you will be punished with a few precepts, and it will be okay."
She reached out and poured herself a glass of wine, but the entrance was not as spicy as the wine in her previous life, but sweet with a fragrance, no wonder the ancients loved to drink.
"You can't tell you can drink."
The door was suddenly pushed open, Shui Qianqiu stared at them vigilantly, and subconsciously closed the window, "Who are you?" ”
"You really don't know him or is it a fake?" Shen Shifeng sneered, Shui Qianqiu frowned but recognized the person behind Wen Beixu.
"It's you, I haven't thanked you for saving your life that day."
Lin Yuan stood behind him and lowered his eyes, Shui Qianqiu raised his eyebrows and put down his wine glass, looked at the two people in front of him, who were either rich or noble, and took a deep breath: "Is there something wrong with you?" ”
"It's okay, come and sit down." Wen Beixu sat next to Shui Qianqiu, took the drawing she had just read in her hand, and asked with a little curiosity, "What is this?" ”
"Drawings, give them back to me, you can't read them." Shui Qianqiu stretched out his hand to take it, but was stopped by Wen Beixu: "It's atmospheric, why don't you go to the mason carpenter, but take this place instead?" ”
"Don't mention it, those guys have eyes for money." Shui Qianqiu sat back in his place with a bad face, and poured himself another drink. Green Zhi didn't dare to stop him if he wanted to, and he was also quietly threatened by Shen Shifeng when he wanted to get up and salute, and Green Zhi didn't dare to sit or stand, and he was in a dilemma.
Wen Beixu pinched the drawings and just chuckled twice without speaking, Shui Qianqiu drank it by himself, and only after drinking most of the pot did he stop: "Apricot blossom brewing has the most stamina, now it looks sweet and delicious, and after a while, it should not be recognizable in the southeast and northwest." ”
"Thank you for your kindness, then don't drink, let's go when the green branches are full." Shui Qianqiu got off the donkey down the slope, and she also saw that something was wrong with the green branch's expression, and she thought that there was something strange about these two people, just in case she went first.
As for the drawing, I don't want to return it to myself, so I just give it to him, and it's worthless to keep it.
Wen Beixu pinched the drawings and didn't stop them, but just pinched the cup that Shui Qianqiu had just drunk, and the meaning in his eyes was unclear.
"This Second Miss Shui really didn't recognize you and me? It's impossible, even if you choose a concubine room, then you should have told her early, how could you not know anything? ”
Wen Beixu played with the cup, and a smile rose in her eyes: "Not only does she not know, but the Shui family should not know." Shi Feng, you said that I know the news of the border pass, will the favored one not know? My father had already rushed to tell the family, Shui Qianhan loved his sister the most, and I knew that she knew it. ”
"So your little lady regrets it? So hide it and don't report it? I don't think you want your eldest brother to accept it, right? Shen Shifeng laughed, Wen Beixu put the cup back, and said: "It's not impossible, after all, the entire Yuzhou Mansion can only win over this rookie general through Shui Qianqiu." ”
"Lin Yuan, take the drawings and go for a trip, Miss Shui Er will give her whatever she wants."
"Yes."
When Shui Qianqiu sneaked back over the wall with the green branches, Master Yu suddenly changed his tone for some reason and said that he agreed to renovate according to her drawings.
"How did this drawing get to you? Who gave it to you? Shui Qianqiu held his head dizzy and asked, Master Yu was stunned for a moment, and said unclearly: "The guard Lin Yuan next to the prince gave it, and he also instructed the second lady to do what she wanted, and we can't miss a cent." ”
Shui Qianqiu nodded indiscriminately and walked into the wing, and the green branch helped her and whispered: "Miss, I was about to tell you just now, but you haven't given me a chance to speak." ”
"No, what does he do for me? Is it so overflowing with love to help the poor? "Shui Qianqiu is the one I don't understand the most, the sky will not drop pies for no reason, only traps can fall.
"No, you have to stay away from him in the future, and he will calculate me." Shui Qianqiu muttered to herself, and Lu Zhi said angrily on the side: "Second Miss, this is the prince of the world, he is interested in you, Miss You, the blessing that others can't ask for, what are you hiding?" ”
"I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse, but he is the prince of the world, does he lack women? More beautiful than me, smarter than me, and much more seductive than me, why did you fall in love with me? There is no good thing in the world that loves at first sight, that is, we should guard against it, so how can we think about it? ”
Shui Qianqiu repeatedly warned Green Branch not to talk about it, and Green Branch also knew how serious the crime of following the young lady out of the house without permission was, so he promised to definitely grit his teeth and not say a word.
Besides, if she really harms Miss, the prince can't let her go.
When Shui Qianqiu saw her swear, she was relieved. When she returned to the house, she fell directly on the bed and fell asleep, what the prince said in this world is really good, the stamina of apricot blossom brewing is really great.
