Chapter 047: Sending the Glass Cup
Saying goodbye to Xiao Xu, Xiao Qi picked up the locket and continued to walk towards Qixiang Pavilion. When she picked up the box, she focused on the inner supervisor who was following Xiao Xu, and there was no Yu Xi.
Yu Xi is the steward eunuch of the slave house, at a young age, because of the ancestral craftsmanship, he is at the same level as a senior aunt like Yuhu.
Although it is not a good guy to be in charge of the slave house, but in the end, it is the steward of a place, why did Yu Xi suddenly transfer to Xiao Xu's side, and if he made a mistake, he would be punished and closed in the inner prison.
After Xiao Qi left, Yu Xi walked out from behind the rockery and handed over the kite axle to Xiao Xu's hand.
Xiao Xu was very unhappy when he took the axle: "Yuxi, didn't you promise me that you would definitely protect me?"
Xiao Xu was guaranteed by Yu Xi and trusted Yu Xi's kung fu very much before climbing the rockery. As a result, at the critical moment, Yu Xi did not appear, but Xiao Qi protected him.
This made Xiao Xu feel very dissatisfied.
"Your Highness," Yu Xi said with a smile, "The slave is at the other end of the mountain, and I didn't expect that His Highness would turn here." Failing to protect His Royal Highness is the sin of the minion. However, looking at the little highness, it seems that he likes the little slave very much, and the little highness can meet someone who is pleasing to the eye, and the slave is hit by the board, which can be regarded as a small contribution. ”
Yu Xi's mouth was very sweet, and it suddenly entered Xiao Xu's heart. 、
"That sister is indeed very good, beautiful, and kind-hearted. I made an agreement with her that she would come back to play with me, and then I would introduce you to each other. ”
Yu Xi's status in the Chengde Hall has caught up with the steward of the first palace. He is a man who is at ease, he can grasp the master's mind very well, he has only been here for ten days, and he has been appreciated by Xiao Xu, and he usually accompanies Xiao Xu to ride a horse and shoot arrows, read and write, and there are many strange things for Xiao Xu to play with.
After a long time, Xiao Xu regarded Yu Xi as his best playmate. Even the accompanying reading boy rewarded by his mother is not as 'favored' as Yuxi.
Xiao Xu was scheming, so he continued to play with the kite.
Yu Xi watched Xiao Qi's back gradually disappear between the palace walls, thoughtful.
That daring little slave, does she remember him......
......
Mei Ji's gift arrived, it was displayed, and everyone was silent for a moment.
If you talk about such things as cups, there is no shortage of them in every palace, and they are valuable, and they are made of some delicate patterns, or porcelain taken from famous artists, which is a superior thing.
It is not easy to give away this ordinary thing with novelty.
Maggie did just that.
The material of the glaze is already very rare, and it can only be seen in the Great Chu Palace, and now, a bowl is made of colored glass, and the workmanship is so exquisite, don't say others, even if Wang Ji is a general's lady who often goes in and out of the banquet of the Great Chu Palace, she has never seen it.
The most surprising thing is that when Mei Ji took it, she didn't put it in a precious box and give it to Yu Ji as a gift, but directly put the fruit and served it with melon seeds or something.
Everyone looked at the table, this incomparably expensive gift, and for a while they didn't know whether to mock Mei Ji for not understanding, or be ashamed that they didn't have such a good thing.
It was Yu Ji who stood up first and saluted Mei Ji: "My sister's gift is too expensive, and my sister really can't afford it." I don't know these things in the first place, wouldn't it be a waste to put something like my sister here. ”
Mei Ji said with a smile: "What did my sister say, in fact, it was not just for my sister, we could easily sit down and chat and drink tea, and talk about our hearts, which is a good thing." The younger sister had nothing to handle, so she took out the glass cup and served the sisters with some fruit, which was also excellent. And now that my sister has been blessed by the Buddha, everything she wants will come true, and it is not an exaggeration to give my sister any good things. My sister thought that my sister had many mundane things, and my sister must have them, and my sister was dedicated to worshipping the Buddha, and she couldn't see too many extravagant things, so she thought that the glass cup was a rare thing. It can also be used to hold fruits, or it can be played with astigmatism in the sun, which is all lively and interesting. ”、
Compared with other palace maids, Xiao Qi's tutorial was the fastest, and he brought the glass cup in a hurry. She didn't put the gift box out, there was a situation of stealing the limelight from others, and she directly took it upon herself to put the glass cup in fruit and serve it.
As Xiao Qi expected, such a practice suddenly attracted the attention of Yu Ji and the other concubines.
The current situation is that in comparison with Mei Ji's ingenious gifts, other people's, including the gold and silver jewelry in Wang Ji's hands, seem very insignificant.
No matter how expensive it is, it has become a vulgar thing, and it seems too vulgar for someone like Yu Ji to sincerely worship the Buddha.
Mei Ji turned the glass cup as she spoke, and the sunlight shone into the warm pavilion and covered the bowl, immediately refracting many colored lights on the stone table.
Some of the light is round, some are square, and the skittles generally beat and elongate with the rotation, and then slowly shorten and disappear, which is very dazzling and beautiful.
Yu Ji's face couldn't help but show a satisfied smile.
"Sister Mei Ji really has a heart, if it weren't for my sister's guidance, my sister would still feel that its workmanship is too exquisite, very valuable, and I don't dare to try it. Unexpectedly, it was such an interesting and cute thing to drill through the doorway, and I liked it very much. ”
"I know my sister likes it. ”
A satisfying gift made the distance between Mei Ji and Yu Ji a lot closer, and Mei Ji's seat naturally moved to Yu Ji's side.
Wang Ji felt very uncomfortable, but in Yu Ji's palace, she was not good at acting too perversely, so she could only say in a sour voice: "In the end, you can get the favor of the king, and this trick of serving people to make people happy is stronger than us." You see, in a few words, put the heart of the unsmiling sister Yu Ji, let's talk here for a long time, and the effect is not as good as Mei Ji. ”
Mei Ji smiled and said: "My sister is joking, my sister's family background is not good, these little tricks have been played since childhood, and they are just laughing." The younger sister is not as good as the elder sister, the family is a family of military generals, the father is the most powerful general in Dachu, and the elder brother is also an important minister of the court. Naturally, you don't have to learn to please others. ”
This time, Mei Ji didn't give Wang Ji face, and went back directly.
"You!"
Wang Ji's face became ugly.
Mei Ji mentioned that some time ago, her father did Xiao Yi a disservice, and her brother was reprimanded by the saint and demoted three levels in a row. During Xiao Yi's illness, she not only failed to help him share his worries, but also had to beg to be in front of the hospital bed, begging Xiao Yi to take a leave of absence and go back to help his father and brother.
These things made her lose face, and now, she didn't expect that Mei Ji would use such things to mock her.
Hasn't she always resisted?
