Chapter 37: The mountain rain is coming, and the wind is full of buildings
"Did you hear that?"
"What's the matter?"
"The matter of accompanying the assessment has spread all over the Qi Mansion! Don't you know yet? On weekdays, the little-known maids buy embroidered cloth and gold needles one by one, and practice needles day and night! If you are more careful, you can still see them when they are spilling and sweeping the front hall, and the more real energy ~ tsk tsk ~ is really eye-catching......"
A little girl in Tsing Yi with a round face looked at Xia Kui and chattered lively.
Xia Kui had palpitations, but his face pretended to be domineering: "Hey, it's just these simple four questions, do you think I'll lose?" In terms of sprinkling and sweeping, I have never seen a maid more meticulous than me, and I am not bad at female red cooking, but this martial arts fight is ......"
She paused, reached out and touched the small porcelain medicine bottle in her arms, and suddenly smiled on her face: "They are all three-legged cats, I have learned a few tricks seriously, although I can't beat that wild girl, but- I have my own clever plan!" ”
Xia Kui is both scheming and slippery like a loach, and there are so many ghost ideas in his stomach that they overflow.
The round-faced little maid was full of admiration, knowing that it was impossible for her to win the opportunity to enter the fairy gate, she pulled her sleeve enviously, and said weakly: "Sister Xia Kui, if you get the opportunity to enter the fairy gate, don't forget us, I also warmed your bed!" ”
Xia Kui sat leaning, her right leg was cocked on her left leg, she shook it, picked up the teacup and drank the tea in small sips, a faint smile hung on the corner of her mouth, and she didn't answer.
At noon the next day, as soon as Qi Yan came back, the maids climbed one after another.
The corners of the Qi Mansion, even a flower pot, an incense burner, and the dust on the corner of the table, were all wiped spotlessly. The plum blossom carving on the carved floor tiles is clearly visible.
Some smart maids, carrying coarse cloth barrels, ran around in front of him, just to leave a good impression of Qi Yan as "hardworking and willing to work".
It's a pity that he only felt annoyed, so he only stayed in the inner hall for a while, and then went to the wing room to rest.
That night, Qi's house was brightly lit, and none of the rooms had their lights out early. Eight people in a room, fighting at night, holding silk flying needles and walking lines, what lotus peonies, mandarin ducks playing in the water, and colorful clouds chasing the moon...... The whole nine yards.
There is still half a month left before the companion reading assessment, and they are so hard!
During the day, I worked hard, and at night, I practiced embroidery, and finally got free time, and I sneaked into the kitchen to learn the cooking skills of the masters.
For several days, several people were tired, but this trend did not stop, and even, as the days became shorter, the night lights took longer.
Every room refused to turn off the lights early, as if whoever could make it to the last would win.
Xia Kui is in charge, and they can't be allowed to mess around. But after managing it a few times, it didn't work, so they let them go.
She cares more about the actions of the flower fat mist than she does about staring at the maid.
Several times, Xia Kui sneaked to the sheepfold and saw the flower fat mist falling asleep. At first, she thought this trick was called recuperation, but after observing it for nearly ten days, she didn't find any unique secrets.
"This woman is doomed!"
Xia Kui thought so, but just in case, she still carried a branch of artemisia on the snow all the time, and besides, she didn't want to lose in the hands of impossible people.
Therefore, she also secretly moved her hands and feet in the meal of the maid with outstanding embroidery......
Xia Kui sold a few expensive pieces of jewelry and bought a large amount of blinding powder.
Blinding powder has the effect of making people dizzy, every day, sprinkle it into meals according to small amounts, and even the part of the flower fat mist is not spared.
In this way, she has a chance to win.
