Chapter 27: Dilemma

Zhihua turned a page of the calendar, the seventh day of the seventh month, the day of begging.

For gentlemen, this day is very ordinary. But for the big girls and little daughters-in-law in every family, begging on the seventh day of July, looking forward to a pair of skillful hands, is the greatest wish.

Shi Jin and Zhihua took the cardboard box early and caught the spider and put it in the corner, just hoping that Ming'er would make a beautiful web with a spider.

The two were playing with themselves, and the little servant Mo next to the second master turned back again.

Because of the holiday, Si Qi has a holiday today, and it is rare that no one is in charge of Qingfeng Courtyard, and the little maids are all at ease.

Shi Jin saw Shi Mo and asked him with a smile, "But the second master forgot to take something?" ”

Shimo Void nodded at Shi Jin, looked at the weaving painting and shook his head, and then turned to Shi Jin again, "The second master was about to leave the house, but he was stopped by the old lady, and insisted that there was a table lady in the house, and let the second master follow him." How can the second master understand this? This time, you can't offend Miss Biao completely? So let any of you go with you to take care of it. ”

Zhihua was moved when he heard it, but he listened to Shimo and said, "Zhihua is reckless, Shi Jin will follow." ”

Zhihua pouted and shook his hand into the ear room.

Shi Jin couldn't comfort Zhihua, hurriedly changed his clothes to go out, and went out of the house with Shimo.

This is the first time she has walked through the main gate of the Hou Mansion. On weekdays, the little maids also leave a corner door to enter and exit, like this main gate, which is reserved for the masters to enter and exit.

Shi Jin crossed the high threshold, walked past the small man guarding the door, stepped down the bluestone steps that were smoothed all the year round, and saw a Xuanchang carriage marked with the sign of the Marquis of Jing'an was parked at the main entrance.

Shi Jin got into the carriage at the behest of Shi Mo, and saw that his second master was sitting and closing his eyes, and not far from his left, there was a young lady in a goose yellow costume, and a little girl with a goose egg face and a little childish smile.

Hearing the sound of the car curtain, Qi Mojing glanced at her lightly, and asked the coachman to catch the car.

Shi Jin had seen the cousin and the second master, so he carefully sat by the door and sat opposite the little maid.

The young lady is quite graceful, and her figure is also plump, and her chest is more and more majestic with a tender yellow body, and her waist is as slender as a willow.

Just looking at the appearance of this young lady, Shi Jin knew the old lady's good intentions.

Replaced by her, her brother saw that five out of twenty had not yet started a family, and she had to get sick urgently.

However, looking at the meaning of his second master, is it because he didn't like it?

Can't stop?

Shi Jin secretly glanced at the young lady a few more times, she was born with a beautiful appearance and a good figure, how could she put it in the eyes of the second master, but she didn't even give her an eye?

Thinking of this, Shi Jin's gaze subconsciously swept under the second master, could it be ......

Before she could think about it, Qi Mojing glanced at her coldly.

Shi Jin hurriedly sat upright, not daring to have a trace of disrespect.

There was an awkward silence in the carriage.

The cousin bit her lower lip lightly, the whole person was pitiful, and she looked very aggrieved, "What does my cousin have of opinion on Qian'er?" ”

Qi Mojing opened his eyelids, "The old lady didn't make it clear to you?" By seniority, you should call me a cousin. ”

Qin Qian'er choked.

Thinking of the task assigned by the old lady, as long as she could make the second master take a fancy to her, the Hou Mansion recognized her as a cousin. Qin Qian'er was a little bolder, "Then, cousin, Qian'er wants to go to the rouge gouache shop, can my cousin accompany Qian'er?" ”

Shi Jin lowered his eyebrows and was pleasing to his eyes, but his ears were high.

I thought that the second master would refuse, but I didn't expect him to snort from his throat and agree.

Qin Qian'er looked at Second Master Qi with a pair of eyes affectionately.

Qi Mojing's face darkened, and he didn't have a seizure.

Today's begging festival, the street is full of people, everywhere is selling silk thread and satin, and even the little ladies on the street have increased.

The rouge gouache shop is a place where the girls gather.

As soon as Qi Mojing got out of the car, the eyes of the big girls and little daughters-in-law around him secretly looked at him.

There was Meng Lang, and when he threw the handkerchief, the wind blew, and he threw it into Qi Mojing's arms as if he was aiming in the direction.

Shi Jin is very good at observing words and emotions these days, and seeing that his master doesn't like it, he went straight to the waiter, one left and one right, and escorted Qi Mojing into the store.

Xiao Er, who had already understood his eyes, saw that they were not ordinary people, and hurriedly led Qi Mojing aside to drink tea, while Qin Qian'er was so excited that she picked rouge.

Shi Jin also took advantage of his free time to secretly glance at the lipstick.

Qi Mojing saw that her gaze stayed on a tube of new style lipstick, and the little finger of her left hand moved up and down on her knee.

He remembered the red lipstick she had stuffed again.

Qin Qian'er took a sip of grease, and walked to Qi Mojing with infinite joy, "This color, the ...... Uncle, what do you think? ”

The word cousin, spit out from the tip of her tongue, is quite difficult.

"Very good." Qi Mojing's gaze swept to the shopkeeper, "These lipsticks, just wrap them all up." ”

Qin Qian'er was flattered, and looked at Qi Mojing with burning eyes.

However, Qi Mojing had already gotten up and turned around and walked out of the shop.

Shimo hurriedly paid the money, and Shi Jin and Miss Biao's maid held a stack of rouge and lipstick, and followed the master to walk behind.

With Qi Mojing's approval, Miss Nabiao became more and more bold. Although he is beautiful, he comes out of a small family in the end, and he doesn't know much, and when he sees someone paying money, he has to go to one store after another.

In the end, Shi Mo couldn't stand it, and secretly bit his ears with Shi Jin, "The old lady's vision is not good, but her appearance is good, but her eyelids are shallow." ”

Shi Jin couldn't say anything, so he only lowered his eyebrows and followed behind with his things.

Looking at it from Qi Mojing's point of view, a stack of boxes of brocade taller than Shi Jin blocked her entire face.

When Miss Nabiao came out of another preserved fruit shop, Shi Jin's hands were stacked higher.

She staggered, and her whole person was a little unsteady on her feet, let alone keep up with the master in front of her.

As she struggled, a passer-by passed by her and knocked the box in her arms a little crooked.

Shi Jin panicked and wanted to stabilize the box, but she didn't think that the more stable she was, the more her hands trembled, and she was not careful, and the boxes piled up in front of her scattered all over the ground.

Shi Jin's face turned red and he lowered his head to pick up the box. A little heart scattered, and she hurriedly put it away, wanting to put it back in the box.

Qin Qian'er couldn't help frowning when she saw Shi Jin's panicked appearance, and there was some disgust in her mouth, "You put it back like this, how can you eat that dim sum?" ”

Shi Jin's face turned even redder now, and the tips of his ears were also steaming hot.

Shi Mo also felt bad, and was about to put something to help Shi Jin, when he saw a scholar in a green shirt squatting down to help Shi Jin pick up things.

Shi Jin might as well reach over with a pair of hands with slightly white joints and help her pick up the rouge box that fell on the ground.

She buried her head and said "thank you", and then the man asked her, "Are you being bullied like this in the Hou Mansion?" ”
