CHAPTER XIV

This small character is the most popular, the name is small, but the person looks a little rough, completely inheriting her father's appearance, and the brother next to her is Sven, inheriting his mother's appearance, she has also seen this Zhang Zifan in her previous life, Zhou Yunxue and Zhang Xiaoxiao happened to meet each other in the area with a folding fan, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart, I am afraid that there will be a war of words today.

No, Zhang Xiaoxiao walked towards her, and after about four steps, the slightly thick lips were raised, and he said sarcastically, "Zhou Yunxue, I didn't expect you to have a face to come out and hang around." ”

Lychee glared at the person walking in front of her, and was about to step forward to reason with her, Zhou Yunxue hurriedly grabbed her, shook her head lightly, and then smiled and said, "Miss Zhang, long time no see." ”

Zhang Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "Yo, why haven't I seen you for a few days, but I've learned some rules." ”

"Let Miss Zhang smile." Zhou Yunxue was not as angry as before

Zhang Xiaoxiao looked her up and down in a little surprise, and then pouted, "It's really boring." Then he turned and went to his brother.

Lychee's eyes widened, and she said in disbelief, "Miss, she's just gone?" "This is illogical, didn't you scold three hundred rounds before you stopped?

"Hmm." Zhou Yunxue responded, this kind of person who has nothing to do is reasonable.

The three of them went shopping again, and Zhou Yunxue fell in love with a jade crown carved from white jade, the jade crown was in the shape of a lotus, the lotus petals were slightly curled outward, the lotus heart was also carefully carved out of the lotus stamen, and there was a hosta carved with jade in the shape of a lotus pod.

The little guy who followed on the side said smartly, "Miss's vision is really good, this is our master here who carved it out yesterday, you see that this jade quality is excellent, and the carving is also good, and the entire Duobao Pavilion is this one, there is no duplicate." ”

"Well," Zhou Yunxue nodded, and said, "It's pretty good, what's the price?" ”

"Eight hundred taels of hosta in a row." The little guy paused and said, "Miss must also be a jade scholar, you see that this jade crown and this hairpin are flawless, plus this carving, eight hundred taels of our Duobao Pavilion will also earn some handicraft money." ”

Zhou Yunxue smiled at him and said, "Little brother is eloquent, wrap it for me." ”

"Hey~ good." After speaking, he found a box and padded three layers of brocade cloth, and then put the jade crown in, and said, "Miss, do you want to see the hairpin, we have a few new styles." ”

"No, check out."

"Miss comes with the little one, and the checkout needs to be on the first floor." Zhou Yunxue didn't buy anything else, and the little girl didn't persuade much, he saw it when this young lady came in, although there were few kinds of jewelry worn up and down, but everything was a fine product, and it must be from a high-ranking family, and those small styles were naturally not looked down upon.

"Wait, little brother should take me to see it."

Seeing that the cute person had changed his mind, the little guy happily led the person to the second floor, Zhou Yunxue and the lychee and hawthorn beside him said, "You go and pick some of your favorites." ”

The two maids were stunned for a moment, and Lychee said, "Miss, slaves and maids are not short of jewelry." ”

Hawthorn also shook his head and said, "Slaves don't like to wear jewelry. "She is a martial arts practitioner, and it is troublesome to wear jewelry.

Zhou Yunxue frowned slightly, "Obedient, it's hard to come out today, you pick a few things you like, by the way, also pick a few grapes and pomegranates." ”

Seeing that her own young lady frowned, Lychee hurriedly pulled the hawthorn who still wanted to refuse to pick the hairpin, and after a while, she saw the little girl leading the two back, and Lychee said to her with crooked eyebrows, "Miss, look, the earrings that the slave maid chose for the grapes." ”

Zhou Yunxue took the box with a smile, opened it and saw that there was a pair of gold-inlaid Ziying pendants, made in the shape of a small grape, and said, "It's quite exquisite." ”

"yes, yes, the grapes must like it." Lychee said happily

"What about yours?" Zhou Yunxue asked

"The slave is a lychee, and it is also an earring." As he spoke, he happily opened the box in his hand, a pair of gold and jade pendants, which seemed to be cheaper than the grapes.

Turning his head and asking the hawthorn on the side, he said, "What about the hawthorn?" ”

Hawthorn opened the small long box in his hand and said, "The slave doesn't like to wear jewelry very much, so she took a hosta." After speaking, he opened another box and said, "This is for pomegranates, and it is also an earring." ”

There is also a pomegranate-style gold-inlaid jade pendant lying in the box, Zhou Yunxue said, "If you like grapes and pomegranates, Miss will customize such earrings for you in the future, and the hosta used for hawthorn will be carved into a hawthorn." ”

"Thank you, miss." Lychee smiled,

Hawthorn also smiled and nodded, and the little maid on the side said, "The little one hasn't seen a young lady who is so good to her own maid, and the young lady is really kind." ”

Zhou Yunxue just smiled and said, "Check out." ”

The little guy led the three people to the counter on the first floor, the jade crown plus three pairs of earrings and a hosta, a total of one thousand and five taels, the shopkeeper erased the five taels of the odd head, only received one thousand taels, Lychee took out a silver ticket of one thousand taels, and after paying the bill, several people got into the carriage and went home.

Zhou Yunxue arrived at the house to take a bath and change clothes, the time for dinner arrived, grapes and pomegranates, the two girls got the earrings and ran over to thank them, the four girls all brought the earrings and hairpins they bought today, standing in front of her in a row, blinking at her with sparkling eyes, Zhou Yunxue had to smile helplessly, "It's beautiful, it's worse than the hawthorn, I'll find someone to make it more beautiful for you in a few days." ”

The four girls glanced at each other, then bent their legs and saluted, and said crisply, "Thank you, Miss." ”

After Zhou Yunxue had dinner, she took the jade crown she bought today, and went out to Zhou Qingzhi's courtyard with grapes and pomegranates.

Zhou Qingzhi was not in the study, only after asking his subordinates did he know that he was bathing, Zhou Yunxue took the box into the study and waited for him, the grapes and pomegranates were pulled by a few familiar subordinates to eat snacks, and the two of them couldn't enter the study, so she followed them.

The lights in the house have been lit, Zhou Yunxue flipped through the book that she hadn't finished reading a few days ago, and was fascinated, but suddenly felt wrong, raised her eyes to see, isn't it wrong, there was a demon with long hair and a shawl in front of her, and she was slightly bent to look at her, Zhou Yunxue blinked, looked at the book in her hand, and saw that the book was described: This demon is handsome, with clear facial features on a carved face, an angular face is handsome and abnormal, a black hair is draped down, and a pair of phoenix eyes are flashing with glass-like light, The thin lips are slightly upturned, as if smiling, but not smiling, sucking away everyone's souls. He raised his eyes to look at the person in front of him, and muttered in disbelief, "There really is a demon." ”

"Poof!" The demon in front of him suddenly smiled, and the glass light in the phoenix's eyes suddenly filled with as if it was about to overflow, making Zhou Yunxue feel dizzy, only to see the demon raise his hand and bend his finger and flick it towards her smooth forehead, and said, "Niece doesn't know uncle?" ”

Pulled back to her senses by the pain on her forehead, Zhou Yunxue covered her forehead, frowned slightly, looked at the person in front of her, and said uncertainly, "Two... Uncle? ”

"Uh-huh." Zhou Qingzhi responded, raised his hand and picked up the box on the table

Zhou Yunxue stared at him and said, "Am I going to die?" ”

Zhou Qingzhi turned his head and frowned, "Why did you die?" "Does anyone want her to die?

"I looked at your face." Zhou Yunxue frowned tightly and said

Zhou Qingzhi glanced at her and said, "Little niece, you have read too much." ”

Zhou Yunxue looked at him with that face, and even rolled his eyes, revealing a bewitching feeling, and couldn't help but raise his hand to cover his eyes, and said, "Second uncle, you should still wear a mask." ”

"Don't, I've been wearing it for a day, and I'm panicking." If it weren't for such a face, who would be willing to wear that kind of hard mask, he wouldn't wear it in his courtyard on weekdays, because they were all his people, since she came here every day, he was afraid of scaring her so he put on the mask, and he endured enough for a month.

Zhou Yunxue had to put down his hand and get used to the second uncle who was used to this appearance, no wonder he wore a mask when he went out, if he wore this face, he was afraid that he would be drowned in the champa purse.

Zhou Qingzhi opened the box, took out the jade crown inside, and said, "This is the birthday gift you gave me?" ”

Zhou Yunxue nodded and said, "It cost me eight hundred taels of silver." ”

Zhou Qingzhi played with his hand for a while before hooking his lips and said, "Reluctantly." ”

Zhou Yunxue glanced at him, it wasn't for his silver, he didn't feel distressed, so he stood up and said, "Okay, the gift has also been delivered, and I'll go back." ”

When he turned around to leave, he listened to Zhou Qingzhi, "This is my first birthday when I am so old, and the first birthday gift I received, thank you little niece." ”

Zhou Yunxue glanced back at him, there was a trace of satisfaction hidden under that dazzling smile, she couldn't help but sigh lightly, no matter how cynical or calm she was on weekdays, she was still only a fifteen-year-old boy in the end.

Zhou Yunxue was silent and said, "Where is the kitchen?" ”

Zhou Qing was stunned and said, "What are you going to do?" ”

Zhou Yunxue glanced at him and said, "That's it, grinding and chirping." ”

Zhou Qingzhi raised his eyebrows, glared at her with phoenix eyes, and said, "You dislike me." "This is not an interrogative sentence, this is an affirmative sentence.

"Say it quickly." Zhou Yunxue saw that today's Zhou Qingzhi was not as difficult to talk as he used to be with a mask, and unconsciously revealed his true character.

Zhou Qingzhi glared at her, still holding the jade crown in his hand, turned around and walked out of the door and said, "Follow me." ”

Zhou Yunxue followed him to the small kitchen, there were quite a lot of things in the kitchen, and under Zhou Qingzhi's surprised gaze, he scooped out the flour and put water and noodles, rolled it into noodles, cut a few pieces of meat, washed some vegetables, and was a little rusty at the beginning, but the more skilled he became, Zhou Qingzhi looked at her by the door again, and couldn't help asking, "How can you make these things." ”

Zhou Yunxue's hand washing vegetables only paused slightly, and asked her how she could, in fact, she didn't want to learn it, who would have thought that the young lady from her Hou Mansion would marry the Wu family for two years, and there would only be an old mother who burned the fire and a maid with a ghost in her heart, in the depressed yard, she learned to do her own laundry and cooking, learned to save money, and after two years, she was finally killed by a bowl of poison.

Seeing that she didn't want to say Zhou Qingzhi, she didn't ask, and after a while, the fragrance of noodles filled the kitchen, Zhou Yunxue took the chopsticks and bowl, scooped up the noodles in the noodle pot, filled a full bowl, and handed it to him.

Zhou Qingzhi looked at her and said stunned, "Cook it for me?" ”

Zhou Yunxue nodded and said, "I heard an old lady say that everyone who is born has to eat a bowl of longevity noodles. ”

Zhou Qingzhi took the noodles, squatted on the ground and ate them, his long eyelashes covering his eyes, and he couldn't see his thoughts.

There were still some in the pot, so Zhou Yunxue scooped them up, and squatted on the ground to eat with him without the appearance of a lady.

After the two finished eating, Zhou Yunxue shook her numb legs and said, "Okay, I should go back too, you can ask someone to wash the bowl yourself." ”

Zhou Yunxue was just about to step out of the door, but her arm was grabbed by Zhou Qingyi, she frowned slightly and looked puzzled, "What else do you want, I will cook for you personally." ”

Zhou Qingzhi's phoenix eyes stared at the person in front of him, and his voice was a little cold, "Zhou Yunxue, I said that I like to eat alone." ”

Zhou Yunxue frowned, glanced at the hand holding her arm, and said, "I know, you said that you can't give me the rest of the rest of the pot, I cooked it." "Besides, she didn't come to talk until she had finished eating.

Zhou Qingzhi looked at her and smiled, the eyes that were already a little afraid to look at her were like the warm sun in winter, shining straight into Zhou Yunxue's heart, and a thin crack quietly cracked out in the place that had been frozen for three feet.

Zhou Yunxue was slightly flustered, but Zhou Qingzhi let go of her and said, "Go back quickly, it's going to be locked in a while." ”

Zhou Yunxue glanced at him a little inexplicably, turned around and walked out the door, the grapes and pomegranates were already waiting outside the courtyard, and the three of them went back to the courtyard.
