Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Gift
Feng Jiaojiao looked at Bai Xiaoyi Ye, who was barely offered by her father and brother, such a strong facial features and a slightly weak body were pinched on a person and a man, mixing a strange charm that was as inauspicious and demonic as a mountain spirit. Bai Lin was looked at by women a lot, but it was still rare for Feng Jiaojiao to stare at without blinking, no, there was one yesterday.
"Are your eyes really this color?" Feng Jiaojiao asked stunned, and Feng Jinshan silently wiped away a drop of sweat with his sleeve.
Bai Lin covered the bridge of her nose with a gold-painted fan, and her dark blue eyes were even more breathtaking: "It's true, my mother is a descendant of the Tibetan people who lived in Nanquan, and her eyes are bluer than mine." β
As is the norm, the rude village girl should be interested in asking what his mother was like and how she had come to Middle-earth. Bai Lin sneered in her heart. Since he understood human speech when he was a child, Bai Lin has been numb to the people around him from shame β anger β curiosity of his eyesβDon't you ask me yourself, but after listening to the gossip, there will be a great price."
Feng Jiaojiao slapped her slap slightly: "When I chatted with Xiaozhi and Brother Xiaochun before, I often talked about Biyaner and Kunlunnu, this world is so big, there are so many people with different lives, I really want to see it." It's a pity that I've been to the state capital so far, and now I've finally seen it with my own eyes. β
How can Li Chun's shadow be inseparable from anywhere, Bai Lin is displeased. He looked at Feng Jiaojiao, who was wearing a set of woven gold dresses, her hair was pulled up high, and her head was ringed. If it weren't for the fact that she only combed two braids during the day and wore a simple orchid cloth coat; If it weren't for her innocent and willful expression, which was consistent with the day, Bai Lin would not have allowed her to enter within ten meters of her.
Feng Jiaojiao reluctantly glanced at Bai Lin's eyes a few more times: "It's so beautiful, it's like a gem, Xiao Eleven Ye with such eyes is the image of heaven and man described in the book." I've always felt that Brother Koharu is like a handsome thief written in a book, and now there is finally a second person in the book. β
There seems to be something strange about this style of painting. Bai Lin understood the mood of many people in Huashi County who were made by Feng Jiaojiao and didn't know whether to praise her or beat her. The blue-eyed Hu Nu, the red-haired prisoner, this is not a good word, it represents a lowly, mongrel, even if he barely came back to praise him in the end, it didn't make him happy, why did he have to compare with Li Chun in such a small place?
Bai Lin's final conclusion was not to feed the broken body of this explosive chick to the shark, but not to argue with fools, and when she went back, her aunt would definitely praise herself, Xiao Eleven Ye has really grown.
All in all, it was a great feast. The wine and fruit and the master chef are all purchased from the state capital, and there are several novel dishes that Feng Jiaojiao has always wanted to eat but has not had the opportunity to try; Dim sum is a bun made in advance by willow branches. Feng Jinshan also invited a small opera troupe from the state capital to sing across the water, and the singing voice was very clear.
"I still like your cooking, it's not delicate but it's my taste." Bai Lin squinted at Feng Jiaojiao.
Such a stick stretched out, but Feng Jiaojiao was a stupid snake, and said dryly: "I'm not specialized in cooking." "Well, it's kind of coquettishness.
"I'll go back to Nanquan tomorrow"
"Eh, little eleven have a good trip"
Bai Lin always felt that something was wrong, watching Feng Jiaojiao chew and swallow, and felt that the next moment she was going to roll up her sleeves and make fists, and she was resentful like a woman who wanted to tie a man's heart but was not attractive enough. Although her brother knew her mind very well, and wanted to pack her up and give it to himself, she didn't seem to know it at all.
Suddenly, Feng Jiaojiao asked enthusiastically: "Little Eleventh Master, there must be a lot of people who will send you tomorrow, can I ask you for something?" β
Bai Lin put on an unconcerned appearance and picked up a cup of tea: "You talk about what is going on first." β
Feng Jiaojiao leaned forward, almost throwing herself into the illusion of throwing herself into his arms: "It's not troublesome at all, I just ask you to say a word - Feng Cake is delicious!" β
With a "snort", Bai Lin's entire saliva squirted out.
What Bai Xiaoyi gave to the other ladies of the Feng family was a set of identical pearl-inlaid gold heads, which were a necklace, a pair of bracelets, a pair of earrings and a pair of hairpins. Only Feng Jiaojiao's is different, just a luodian box is worth ten taels of silver, and there are twelve gold hairpins inlaid with rubies, which are heavy and pure gold. The gems are not very large, pigeon blood red cherry red to light pink, and the hairpin is also slender and beautiful, which is suitable for the little girl. The contents of the other box are even more bizarre, but the palm-sized box is full of sapphires.
Bai Lin felt that Feng Jiaojiao was a little stupid and not funny, and her chubby fingers didn't know how to cut vegetables, and the knife skills were still acceptable, so she temporarily changed her gift to a box of gold hairpins. This golden hairpin is a set of zodiac signs, the craftsmanship made inside, and the gold at the end of this little chubby girl is too earthy. As for this box of sapphires, it was added by Xiao Eleven Ye thinking that she said that her eyes were good-looking.
Feng Jinshan and his father looked at each other for a moment, nodded tacitly, Feng Youcai looked at his daughter who was lying on the table and counted gems with great interest, and coughed: "Jiaojiao, this box of things is too valuableββ"
"Of course I have to give it back to him" Feng Jiaojiao didn't raise her head, her chubby fingers were pulling, "This is not a gift that our family can afford, Dad, I understand." Play with me for one night, and ask my big brother to send me back tomorrow morning. β
Feng Youcai was in a comfortable mood drinking hot tea, her daughter is good, intimate little padded jacket, how sensible and well-behaved! Feng Jiaojiao took out another golden hairpin to play with, and the hairpin head was beaten into a little monkey holding a peach, the monkey's eyes were rubies half a grain of rice, and the peaches were also rubies, with small fingernails the size, "Look good, I'll exchange my little phoenix hairpin and twigs for this one when I arrive." β
Feng Youcai and his eldest son glanced at each other again, and it was Feng Jinshan's turn to cough: "Jiaojiao, it's not appropriate for this big sister to hold this box of hairpins, it's better to give her the set of noodles for your sister-in-law." β
What Feng Jinshan said is actually very reasonable, Liu Zhi has no occasion to wear this hairpin at all. But Feng Jiaojiao only slapped the table: "You don't care if she's suitable or not, it should be hers anyway." β
"Do you think Big Sister Liu will accept it?" Feng Jinshan hit it with a blow, "That's it, why don't you give her silver?" β
"This is for Zhi'er, why should it be exchanged for silver?" Feng Jinshan looked at his naΓ―ve sister holding his forehead, his father raised his sister to such a delicate temperament, and he would not do it sooner in the future. But he patiently explained, "This box of hairpins is not only precious, but also meticulous, and the eldest sister will marry into the Yang family in the future, can this still be in her hands?" β
After hearing this, Feng Jiaojiao said, "Then exchange it for silver, brother, you are right, I will keep this for Xiaozhi, and I can't cheapen the Yang family." If only Twig hadn't married into their family. Thinking of this, Feng Jiaojiao was no longer in the mood to play with gems, so she closed the box. Brother, you send this back to Bai Shiyi Ye tomorrow. β
