Chapter 4: Giving Purses (21:44)

When Zhuang Meiyan looked up again, she saw the girls walking away in the yard in twos and threes, and somehow, Zuo Siru walked towards the rockery alone, looking at her looking around, as if she was looking for something.

Zhuang Meiyan had an idea, threw the purse in the sleeve cage to the corner in front of him, lowered his head, and showed an anxious look.

Zuo Siru turned the corner and came to the back of the rockery, but coincidentally, at first glance, he saw the purse lying on the ground, because of the exquisite embroidery, the pair of mandarin ducks seemed to be as realistic as living, and he couldn't help bending down to pick it up and look at it carefully, with appreciation on his face.

She raised her eyes to see Zhuang Meiyan walking towards her, and saw Zhuang Meiyan looking to the right with her head down, looking anxious, so she asked:

"What are you looking for? But lost this?"

Zhuang Meiyan said happily: "Yes, I came to the garden last night and lost my purse, but I happened to be seen by my sister, thank you so much." ”

Zuo Siru listened to her soft voice, and she liked it a little in her heart, but she couldn't help but be stunned when she saw a big red mole on her face, and then saw that she was wearing a gold bracelet on her wrist, and the double dragons made of gold wire converged in one place, which was definitely not something that ordinary daughters could wear, and she was secretly surprised in her heart. But this is only a momentary thing, Zuo Siru is the daughter of the prime minister after all, and she has the strength of a father, and the look of surprise disappeared, replaced by a calm and arrogant look.

"I don't know what my sister is called?"

Zhuang Meiyan replied with a smile and said, "Little sister Zhuang Meiyan." ”

"Zhuang Meiyan?" Zuo Siru couldn't help repeating, and at the same time showed a puzzled look, listening to the surname and name, it was clear that she was the daughter of the Zhuang family's mansion, but she often came to the Zhuang mansion, how could she never have heard of this name, let alone seen this person.

Zhuang Meiyan explained unhurriedly: "My mother, Qi, is sick and often asks me to serve in front of her, so it is difficult for me to gather with my sisters in the hospital, so my sister must have never seen me, and she has not asked for my sister's title. ”

These words were generous and decent, dispelling Zuo Siru's doubts, and the two exchanged polite greetings and knew each other's names.

"Why is my sister wandering around the yard alone?"

Zuo Siru hesitated for a moment and replied: "The scenery of this courtyard is very good, the mountains and rivers are far away, it is really a quiet and elegant place, I just want to walk around alone." ”

Zhuang Meiyan said in her heart, she was obviously looking for something, but she said such a set of excuses in her mouth, she was really a thoughtful woman.

Zhuang Meiyan pretended not to know at the moment, and walked with her silently. Zuo Siru was also speechless, and couldn't think of anything to say to take the charm away.

"My sister's embroidery is really good, let's ask for advice another day. Zuo Siru said politely casually.

Zhuang Meiyan replied humbly: "Embroidered indiscriminately, I embroidered five purses yesterday and just sent the maid to give to the eldest sister, and the eldest sister also likes the purse I embroidered, Sister Ru does not dislike it, this will be given to my sister." ”

Zuo Siru was polite, put it in his hand, and was full of praise.

"The embroidery girl in the palace is afraid that she is not as ingenious as her sister. ”

Zhuang Meiyan thought in her heart, she didn't know what this Zuo Siru was looking for, since she deliberately stayed away from everyone, and even brought her personal maid to find it quietly, it must be something very important and unwilling to be known by others.

Zhuang Meiyan thought about things in her heart, and suddenly blessed her heart, casually brushed aside the low rhododendron leaf bush next to her, and suddenly said "Huh", bent down to pick up a half-moon-shaped jade pendant, and said strangely: "I don't know whose thing fell here?"

Zuo Siru's expression changed, and he hurriedly spoke: "It's me...... On time my maid seedlings fell, that girl always loses three or four, this is a few days ago my mother rewarded her, thanks to her as a treasure to wear it all day long, see how I go back to tease her. ”

Zuo Siru took it with a smile, carefully wrapped it in a handkerchief, put it in her arms, and pressed it through her clothes as if she was still at ease, only then did she breathe a sigh of relief and relax her brows.

But if a mortal's secret is discovered by others, even if he doesn't see through it, his heart will naturally be empty. Because of this, Zuo Siru became more and more close to Zhuang Meiyan and talked about family life.

"Lingtang Qi clan, but the daughter of the famous General Qi back then?"

"Exactly. ”

Zuo Siru bowed slightly, and said: "This bracelet pattern is not ordinary, can you lend me a look?"

This is exactly what Zhuang Meiyan thought, she pushed the boat down the river and took off the bracelet and handed it to Zuo Siru, so that she could take a closer look.

"With all due respect, this seems to be a gift from the emperor, I wonder where my sister got it?"

Zhuang Meiyan deliberately lowered her head, made a shy gesture, and said in a low voice: "It was given to me by my mother, just keep an eye on me, don't lose it, I cherish it, so I don't know the origin of this thing." ”

Zuo Siru suddenly showed a look of sudden realization, nodded her head, and asked again: "Since my sister came to the garden today, why don't you play with my sister?"

"I felt a cold a few days ago, and this morning the second lady sent someone to tell me not to go to the yard to hang out, so as not to catch a cold. Zhuang Meiyan said and coughed twice deliberately.

These words were said very sincerely, so that people could feel the gratitude in Zhuang Meiyan's heart, Zhuang Meiyan coughed for a while, felt that the words were almost done, and quickly left.

"Since Sister Ru likes the scenery of being alone, then my sister won't disturb my sister's Yaxing, I'll go back to the house to take medicine first. ”

Zuo Siru said politely: "Sister go slowly." ”

Zhuang Meiyan walked out of Zuo Siru's sight slowly, turned into the mountain stone in the garden, quietly looked back, and caught a glimpse of Zuo Siru still thinking about something in place, and a smug look gradually appeared on that beautiful face.

Zhuang Meiyan smiled coldly, although she was not interested in the characters in the house, Chunju was listening to the "bag inquiry" of the six roads. She heard Chunju say that this Miss Zuo is the most arrogant, and she is not in agreement with her eldest sister, and the eldest sister often tells this Miss Zuo's jokes in front of the maid. Now, the information she provided must be enough for Miss Zuo to use for a while.

The show is about to go on stage, and it's time for her to go back to the house.
