Chapter Eighty-Seven: Hands-on
Hua Jin went back to Honghun Courtyard, and just sat down on the big kang near the window, he saw Zhi Tao waving a big broom to sweep the yard through the window paper.
Seeing that the broom was taller than a person, Hua Jin couldn't help but laugh out loud, and called Yan Ran, who was bringing hot water in, "Go and call your sister Tao in." ”
Yan Ran responded "yes", put down the kettle and turned to go out, while Bai Tao carried hot water and poured it into the copper basin.
When Zhi Tao came in, he still looked indignant.
Just seeing Hua Jin, he stepped forward and saluted respectfully, "Five girls." ”
The advantage of Huajin's favorite peach is that it is pure, happy and unhappy, all written on the face, and never changes the face in front of and behind the back.
I liked it in my heart, so I couldn't help but want to make a joke of her, "What, the word 'dissatisfied' is written on my face, because I am afraid that I will not be able to see it?" ”
Zhi Tao reached out and touched his little face in confusion, and the soil rubbed on the broom was wiped on it, dirty, and muttered: "Is there any writing on the slave's face?" ”
At this time, everyone in the room couldn't help but laugh at the coquettishness of the peach.
The peach knew that she was being teased and was not annoyed, and laughed with everyone.
At this time, Bai Tao had already moistened the cloth towel with water, smeared some fragrant pancreas on it, and handed it to Hua Jin.
Zhi Tao stepped forward to take the steaming cloth towel in Bai Tao's hand.
Bai Tao freed up a hand to pat the hand stretched out by Zhi Tao, "I just finished sweeping the floor outside, and I wiped my face with ashes, so I came to serve the five girls to clean their hands." ”
Zhi Tao grinned and looked at Hua Jin, "The slave seems to be a little rough, not as meticulous as Sister Bai Tao." ”
Hua Jin saw that she was a little deflated, and no longer joked, but encouraged: "White peaches are good for white peaches, and peaches are good for peaches." "As long as Bai Tao is by your side, you don't have to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation, as long as the peach is by your side, no matter what happens, she will definitely stand by your side righteously.
At this time, Yan Ran stepped forward and blinked her big black eyes, "Fifth girl, is it okay for Yan Ran to have Yan Ran?" ”
Hua Jin likes the atmosphere in his house very much, and smiled, "Yanran is also good at Yanran." "With just a blink of her eyes, she can make people forget their troubles.
The smile in the house was strong, but Lingxiang opened the curtain and came in, and when she saw the situation in the house, she was only slightly stunned, so she calmly stepped forward to salute Hua Jin, lowered her eyelids and said: "Five girls, the people from the sewing room came to send the clothes for the New Year, but the girl is going to try them on now?" ”
Hua Jin knew that Ling Xiang had been in her room for so long, and she had always done her duty, and sometimes even avoided coming to her eyes.
At this time, after a little thought, he nodded, "Since it was delivered, then try it." ”
Lingxiang presented two sets of New Year's winter clothes just sent by the sewing room, a set of rose gold inlaid rose red thick silk gray squirrel jacket with woven gold bird dyed flower skirt, a set of light purple sprinkled soft silk collar long jacket with pink xia brocade silk satin skirt, and two pairs of beaded embroidered shoes, the workmanship is very meticulous.
Girls always have infinite love and endless topics for beautiful clothes, and Hua Jin and the maids around her are no exception.
Yan Ran blinked her big black eyes, "Fifth girl, these two sets of clothes are so beautiful!" ”
Zhi Tao cleaned her hands even more, "Fifth girl, how about letting the slave maid wait for you to change it?" ”
Bai Tao also nodded, looking very expectant.
Ling Xiang said with a smile: "Fifth girl, the slave maid feels that this stitch has been done very carefully. "It's a reminder that the sewing room has taken extra care of her this year.
Hua Jin bowed slightly to Lingxiang, indicating that he understood her prompt.
Zhitao has already cleaned his hands and can't wait to help Huajin change his clothes.
Hua Jin looked at the two sets of New Year's clothes, and first ordered the light purple sprinkled soft silk collared long jacket with pink brocade silk satin skirt.
When the last button was buttoned, Zhi Tao couldn't help but praise: "The five girls look really good in clothes of this color." ”
Hua Jin smiled again and asked Bai Tao to help her change into the rose gold inlaid rose red thick silk gray squirrel jacket with a woven gold bird dyed flower skirt.
This time, as soon as she put on her body, Zhi Tao couldn't help but say, "The fifth girl looks good in clothes of this color." ”
Lingxiang, who had been holding her hand beside her, said with a smile: "Look at the slave maid, that lilac set is more elegant to wear, and it looks like the five girls are delicate and elegant, but it is grand enough to match some red gold jewelry." ”
looked at the set on her body again, "The five girls can really hold down wearing this gorgeous color, and their own temperament will not be taken away at all, and then insert the hosta with the palace flower, which is the most suitable for festive festivals." ”
As soon as Lingxiang's voice fell, Yan Ran couldn't help but echo, "Yes, yes, yes!" Sister Lingxiang said the most appropriate. ”
Zhi Tao couldn't help but pout at Yan Ran, and said with some shame: "Unlike me, I won't say anything except that I am good-looking." ”
But Hua Jin thought about it: through the observation during this time, she felt that Lingxiang not only had strong professional ability, but also high IQ and EQ, and was even the most comprehensive ability in her room.
It's just that how high is Lingxiang's loyalty?
It seems that she should test the maid that Mrs. Tai has rewarded.
After laughing with the maids for a while, and trying on new clothes, Hua Jin looked at the time, thinking that it should be time to do it.
…………
Seeing the group of carriages and horses in the distance getting closer and closer, Qin Jian'an clenched the long knife in his hand.
In the past, he escorted those high-ranking officials and nobles, and it was common for people to be robbed, and it was really the first time that it was reversed like today, and it was false to say that he was not nervous.
But the master who ordered him to do things was also kind-hearted, and not only did he not mean to take people's lives, but also instructed him not to kill even if it was an animal.
So all they had to do was to make a stumbling block on the road, to disperse the group, and to teach the man who was sitting in the first carriage a lesson, and to find something from him by the way.
Thinking like this, Qin Jian'an's heart was at ease, and he waited with bated breath for the convoy to come.
Approaching again, Qin Jian'an's hand was taken away from the handle of the knife, put it to his mouth, and made a gesture ready to blow the code.
Getting closer, Qin Jian'an took a deep breath, but before he could blow it, he heard a rapid and sharp whistle sounding not far away.
Who blew it?
Qin Jianxin was taken aback, this continuous sharp voice was different from the code he had set with a pause in the middle.
Just as he looked at his brother hesitantly, he heard a neat and rhythmic sound of hooves.
Qin Jian'an motioned to his brothers not to move yet, and leaned out half of his body to look at the road.
But I saw a team of dozens of iron horsemen rushing out of nowhere, approaching the carriage of the Zhao Mansion like a divine soldier descending from the sky.
To his surprise, the group was dressed in black armor, covered with black cloth towels, and held ...... in their hands
Qin Jian'an gasped, not knowing how to describe his mood at the moment.
There was a brother beside him who had also seen some of the market and exclaimed in surprise: "They are holding fire crossbows!" ”
