As she spoke, she looked at Liu Ying's frozen red nose, beckoned and smiled: "It's very cold outside, it's frozen, right? ”

The fire in her room is all fine charcoal, colorless and odorless. The small incense burner of gold enamel nine peaches next to it is lit with incense, and in this winter night, it exudes a sweet fragrance.

Liu Ying especially liked this sweetness, took a deep breath, walked quickly to Shi Miaoyu, and said with a smile: "Yes, this day is not only cold, but the road is also very slippery." When we came, our carriage hit a scholar, but fortunately he was fine. But it was delayed for a long time, so my sister doesn't blame me. ”

Hearing this, Shi Miaoyu suddenly said with concern: "It's good that people are fine, but the coachman is careless?"

"Not really, it's just a slippery road. Liu Ying waved her hand, and sighed a little when she said it: "It's just that the scholar is stupid, and he can't say anything, I was afraid that I would hurt him, so I took him to the pharmacy to see, and when I saw that it was okay, I hurriedly came to find you." ”

That scholar, looking at him, is also a white and pure handsome young man, but he is a stammer, what a pity.

Such a person, no matter how powerful he is, is useless, after all, the court has never heard of a stammering person who can be an official.

Hearing her words, Shi Miaoyu didn't take it to heart, just pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "That's good, Green Branch, give Miss Liu tea to warm your hands." ”

"No, no, no. Liu Ying thanked Shi Miaoyu with a smile, and said, "I'm not cold." ”

When she said this, she took out a box from her sleeve and handed it to Shi Miaoyu and said, "Sister Miaoyu, this is a makeup for you, don't dislike it." ”

Shi Miaoyu took it with a smile and opened the box in Liu Ying's expectant eyes.

It was two pendants, one for a rat and one for a rabbit, both made of gold.

Shi Miaoyu is a rat, and Gu Qingchi's is a rabbit, this gift is made of their genus, and it is indeed very heartfelt.

Moreover, although the thing is not too valuable, it is rare that the carving is lifelike.

The craftsmanship is exceptionally good, and it doesn't look like it was made by the master in Jingzhong, after all, in her memory, there is no master of any gold shop with such good craftsmanship.

"Ying'er, where did you find this master, you have such a craft, it's really too similar. ”

Don't say anything else, even the hair on the rat's body is very real when you look at it.

Seeing that Shi Miaoyu liked it, Liu Ying suddenly smiled proudly: "I knew that Sister Miaoyu would like it, this is made by our master in the capital, but I ran to more than ten gold shops to find the craft." It's a newly opened shop, and it's called 'Hidden Jade Pavilion'. How's it going, is it my favorite gift tonight?"

Shi Miaoyu thought about it for a while, but he didn't remember this shop, but he had to admire this kind of craftsmanship.

However, seeing Liu Ying's delicate and pretty appearance, Shi Miaoyu felt extremely funny and a little warm-hearted, because she said: "Ying'er has a heart, I like it very much." You're the first gift for tonight. ”

Hearing this, Liu Ying became more and more complacent, and said with a smile: "That's natural, after all, I like Sister Miaoyu the most, where can I have the same thoughts as them." ”

Seeing her like this, the smile in Shi Miaoyu's eyes intensified.

Those hypocritical people have long since left, and now only Liu Ying is left in the room, Shi Miaoyu is sitting and talking with her around the stove, but she is very comfortable.

After a while, I saw Cai He walk in from the outside and said with a smile: "Miss, Miss Li is here." ”

Shi Miaoyu was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, she should be talking about Li Rumei.

"Let her in. ”

Cai He answered, turned around and went out to invite.

"Miss Shi. ”

When Li Rumei came in, it was mixed with the chill outside. She deliberately wore brightly colored clothes today, and her face was also powdered, but she still couldn't hide the paleness on her face.

Frozen by the cold wind, it looks more and more weak.

Seeing her like this, Shi Miaoyu hurriedly beckoned and smiled: "Come over and warm up, it's cold outside." ”

By this time, it was completely dark, and it was indeed very cold.

When Li Rumei came in, she felt surrounded by warmth, and when she saw Shi Miaoyu's sincere smile, she felt more and more warmth in her heart, and the cold before seemed to be driven away.

She smiled and nodded, handed out a box, and said with a smile: "I'll add makeup to you, I hope you will be harmonious and beautiful after marriage, and you can grow old with your husband and have a full house of children and grandchildren." ”

In the end, it was the unmarried daughter's family, when she said these words, her voice was extremely soft, and her face was a little flushed.

Shi Miaoyu also had a good impression of her, so she took the box with a smile and said, "Thank you, then I will borrow your auspicious words." ”

Caihe brought the tea to her early, and Li Rumei didn't drink it, but just warmed her hands in her hands, fortunately, the tea was not hot, and it was just right to warm her hands.

Li Rumei doesn't like to talk much, she is a quiet character, but Liu Ying can't pull a few horses that jump out, and the three of them say this in the room, which is very lively.

However, Liu Ying's work and rest in the past were very regular, so although she swore that she would accompany Shi Miaoyu until dawn, she was already a little drowsy before she arrived.

Seeing her like this, Shi Miaoyu simply dragged Liu Ying to the bed semi-forcefully, pressed her there with a smile and said, "You just give me an honest sleep, and we'll talk when we wake up." ”

Liu Ying was also very sleepy, and originally wanted to struggle for a while, but when she smelled the exceptionally good smell on Shi Miaoyu's bed, she suddenly felt more and more sleepy.

She smiled, didn't refute, hugged Shi Miaoyu's quilt and turned over, and fell asleep after a while.

Shi Miaoyu shook her head amusedly, seeing that Li Rumei was still sober, she smiled and said, "Rumei, you should also go and rest for a while, it's still early." ”

She is a bride, and according to the rules, she can't rest, but her sisters can.

Hearing this, Li Rumei shook his head and said with a smile: "I won't sleep, let's talk to you." ”

In fact, Li Rumei is also a quiet character, and if she really asked her to speak, she couldn't say anything.

Seeing this, Shi Miaoyu thought about it, and suddenly came up with an idea: "Why don't you play chess with me?"

Li Rumei's eyes lit up, and he nodded busily: "Okay, it's just that my chess skills are not good, you have to take care of it." ”

"I am the one who should say this. ”

When Shi Miaoyu said this, she winked playfully at Li Rumei.

After a while, Li Rumei realized the meaning of Shi Miaoyu's words.

Compared with Shi Miaoyu, where is his chess skills poor, he is simply a master!

Even if she has been deliberately conceding chess, she can't stand it...... Shi Miaoyu's chess skills are really terrible!

When Li Rumei frowned and thought about how to make a move without a trace, Shi Miaoyu's eyes were also full of amazement.

She didn't expect that Li Rumei's chess skills would be so good, but she was timid.

But it's timid, Shi Miaoyu has always been unconcerned, but she became interested, and the more she got down, the more energetic she became.

In the second half of the night, the two spent time constantly learning chess skills. Although there was only the sound of chess pieces falling on the chessboard, the small chess game was very lively.

When Lin Yanran came in, she saw her daughter looking excited, sitting cross-legged on the soft couch, without any image.

On the contrary, Li Rumei next to her has a bit of a beautiful appearance, and she is still so demure and elegant.

Seeing this, Lin Yanran couldn't help laughing, walked over and only glanced at it, and was a little unbearable to look at it.

Rao is daughter, Lin Yanran also wants to complain, this chess skill is simply rotten!

Although Lin Yanran is a merchant girl, the Lin family has not been short of money since she was born, and her parents died early, which made her eldest brother and sister more and more fond of her, but the favor is love, and the two have never slackened in her education.

Therefore, Lin Yanran is still involved in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

Now seeing her daughter's miserable chess skills, she subconsciously pinched her eyebrows.

Regretting chess and regretting being like this, thanks to this Miss Li's measure, she can still maintain her demeanor.

"Mother, why are you here?"

Seeing Lin Yanran coming, Shi Miaoyu suddenly raised her head from a game of chess and asked with a smile.

And Li Rumei also straightened up instantly, and saluted obediently: "I've seen Mrs. Lin." ”

Lin Yanran likes well-behaved girls the most, and when she saw her so soft, she immediately smiled and nodded: "No need to be polite, but are you hungry?" I asked the maid to prepare some food and bring it to you." ”

Hearing this, Li Rumei didn't speak, so she saw Shi Miaoyu nodding like pounding garlic first: "Okay, what did my mother do?"

She didn't feel hungry before, but now she didn't play chess, but she felt some burning in her belly, which was protesting in her stomach.

Seeing her like this, Lin Yanran poked her forehead and said angrily: "Do you still know that you are hungry? ”

She said this, but she clapped her hands and let the maids come in with their food.

Li Rumei was a little restrained, and was pulled by Shi Miaoyu to sit at the table, and said with a smile: "Eat, I just don't know if it suits your taste." ”

As soon as she said this, she saw Liu Ying in the inner room asking in a daze: "What smell, so fragrant!"

Liu Ying slept a little dazed, put on her shoes and got out of bed, and after arriving outside, it took a while to realize that this was not her own home.

Seeing her like this, Shi Miaoyu suddenly laughed and said, "Your nose is a spirit, is it a dog?" ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the food on the table and asked, "Are you hungry, can you eat some?"

"Okay. ”

Liu Ying came back to her senses, but she was not polite, and sat down directly, not forgetting to ask Lin Yanran for her tricks: "Thank you, Aunt Lin." ”

After eating, it was already the fourth watch.

Although Li Rumei has never been married, she also knows the rules, so she smiled and said, "I'm a little sleepy, let's go sleep next door with Miss Liu for a while." ”

Before Liu Ying could react, she was pulled away by Li Rumei. When she got outside, Liu Ying asked in a daze, "I'm not sleepy." ”

Li Rumei didn't know what to whisper to her, and the figures of the two went towards the side room next to them.

Quanfu's mother-in-law was still on the way here, so Lin Yanran ordered someone to clean up the room and let them retreat.

At first, she just pulled Shi Miaoyu to say some affectionate words, but in the end, she took out a few books a little shyly and said softly: "Well, you will read this later, the cave room will be used." ”

Hearing this, Shi Miaoyu was slightly stunned, and subconsciously opened it, but was slammed by Lin Yanran, and said angrily: "Silly girl, what's the hurry, don't look at it at this time, wait for a while...... Well, I'll see tomorrow night when no one is around. Remember to put it at the bottom of your jewelry box, and ask the maids to put it away after reading it, don't let the prince find out. ”

Although she pressed it quickly, Shi Miaoyu still saw a corner.

Just one glance made her heart beat like a drum.

That thing is a spring palace diagram......

In her previous life, no one came to teach her this. And because she was drugged and Lu Jiangrong, she only felt disgusted on the night of candles in the cave room.

It's just that this life is different, although she already knows about the personnel, but when she thinks of going to be with Gu Qingchi tomorrow, she feels that she can't hold back her heart.

Shy and timid, but with a vague expectation.
