82. And the gift
The lively and lively ceremony passed.
All the people in Liufu who participated in the ceremony were also honest as quails.
Also, there is a queen mother in the eldest princess's mansion, who dares to make a mistake?
Looking at the warm smile on Liu Tingfeng's handsome face, Liu Xinning couldn't stop sneering: he was left with a good skin.
Fortunately, the eldest princess doesn't seem to be so infatuated with him anymore.
After lunch, seeing off the guests who were leaving one after another, Liu Xinning could finally rest.
She leaned on the beauty couch and watched Chun Nuan and the others enter the account against the gifts on the table.
"Take the gifts from Cousin Ye and Sister Lou and I'll take a look, and if the others are the others, you can just put them into the account directly."
Liu Xinning asked Chun Nuan to take the gifts of Ye Lanqing and Lou Xinyue alone.
"Yes."
Chun Nuan and the others hurriedly took out Ye Lanqing and Lou Xinyue from the piles of gifts.
"This colorful gemstone gold crown seems to have cost Cousin Ye a lot of money, but fortunately she has a thick family background. However, the gift is expensive, and Cousin Ye is really polite. ”
"It's not just the Lord of Ye County's big deal, but Miss Lou is also not reckless. This jasper picks the hairpin and the earrings, not only the material is transparent, but the carving is also very fine, but I am afraid that it will cost a lot. ”
Chun Nuan saw the gift from Lou Xinyue on the side, and also said funny.
"Sister Lou too. She has a lot of places to spend her money. Liu Xinning couldn't help but feel distressed.
The Xin clan took charge of the middle feed, and there were too many people in the Yongweibo Mansion who saw the wind and made the rudder, and there were more places to detain Lou Xinyue.
"County Lord, you see this gift is also very good." Seeing that Liu Xinning was not in a good mood, Chun Nuan hurriedly changed the topic.
"Well, look." Liu Xinning said with little interest.
Just when Liu Xinning was drowsy watching everyone enter the account, Chun Nuan, who had gone out and came back, whispered in her ear.
"County Lord, Guard Xiao said in the back garden that he wanted to see you."
"Xiao Muze?" Liu Xinning couldn't help but be stunned.
On the twenty-second day, Xiao Muze came to her and said that there were fewer people in the back mountain.
She deceived Xiao Muze, only saying that those people begged for it, so she returned the deed.
The identity deeds of those guards are all white deeds, and Xiao Muze also knows about it.
Therefore, if the deed of identity is returned, those people will really be free.
However, Xiao Muze looked at her deeply at that time.
That glance seemed to see through her heart, making her feel stunned for a moment.
Yes, today's Xiao Muze has never done anything to be sorry for her, but she is so guarded.
However, since the thing has been done, there is nothing to regret.
It's just that since that day, she hasn't seen Xiao Muze again. And Xiao Muze didn't know what he was busy with, and rarely came to see her.
Today, what is this?
"Come with me."
Today is Liu Xinning's ceremony, she is afraid that someone will come to visit suddenly, so the clothes she wears are relatively formal, and she only needs to add a coat to meet people. So she was soon in the back garden.
At this time, it was almost time for dinner, and everyone was busy preparing, but there were very few people in the back garden.
Especially in this piece of plum forest where they meet every day, no one has come over now.
Xiao Muze's tall figure leaned against a thick plum tree, staring down at something in his hand as if in contemplation.
"Guard Xiao." Liu Xinning left Chun Nuan and paced over to call.
"County Lord." When Xiao Muze heard Liu Xinning's voice, his hands seemed to tremble, and then he saluted calmly.
"You're looking for me?" Liu Xinning's gaze couldn't help but look at his hand, it seemed to be a wooden box?
"Yes. Congratulations to the county lord and Lu. This is a gift from your subordinates. ”
After Xiao Muze finished speaking with a smile, he didn't twist it, but directly handed the wooden box to Liu Xinning.
"And the ...... Gift? Liu Xinning took it in her hand with some hesitation.
She has received a lot of gifts today, and naturally she has also received them from her subordinates, so it is not particularly strange.
However, it was the first time she had received a gift from a man her age.
"yes. I've heard from the other guards that they are going to give gifts. Xiao Muze said with a smile.
He also saw Liu Xinning's hesitation, his eyes darkened for a moment, and then explained: "The county lord treats his subordinates very well. Not only rewarded with money and house, but also gave promises. The subordinates are impressed in their hearts, and they really don't know how to repay one or two. It just so happened that today was your gift, so I gave a gift. Open it up and take a look. Maybe not particularly good, but already doing the best I could. ”
His heart was so sincere, his attitude was so honest, like a favored man trying to reciprocate.
He was so young, and in his previous life, he was just a young high school student, so he really just wanted to give a birthday present. It has nothing to do with men and women, right?
Liu Xinning couldn't help but smile a little at the sensitivity of her moment just now.
In her previous life, she was a single mother who was busy trying to survive.
She was even more frightened by her mother's love brain. So I don't have time to fall in love, I don't want to fall in love, and I don't want to get married.
However, I have never eaten pork and have seen pigs run. TV, short videos, etc., I always see them occasionally.
That's why she's sensitive.
However, when she thought that this was now the Daqing Dynasty, it was a feudal dynasty.
There's not so much culture shock here, and not everyone understands that much before they are relieved.
The identity is very different, even if she is not a person who cares about identity, Xiao Muze should not have this arrogant heart.
So, I guess it's just a thank you.
Thinking of this, Liu Xinning opened the carved wooden box and looked inside.
I saw a precious gold-silk red jade carved hairpin lying inside.
"How did you get this hairpin so expensive?" Liu Xinning couldn't help frowning.
Golden silk jade is already precious, and golden silk red jade is even more rare. As Xiao Muze's bodyguard, how could he get such an expensive thing?
"This piece of gold silk ruby rough stone was bought by a subordinate when he first went to the dart, and followed a dart owner to join in the fun. Unexpectedly, his subordinates were very lucky, and they actually opened the golden silk red jade. ”
"After you bought it, didn't you open it directly? After it came out, no one bought it from you? Even if no one buys it, you go back to the dart game, and there is such a big thing in the dart game, you don't think to use this to help? Liu Xinning asked repeatedly.
No way, there are too many doubts.
"Because I bought it for fun at the time, the brothers in the dart game bought a lot of it. When they bought the big ones, they all went to open them. There weren't enough people to open the rough stone, and mine was too small, so I threw it into the pocket of my clothes. After returning to the dart game, I forgot about it. It wasn't until the county lord rewarded the house and his subordinates sorted out their bags that they turned out of the corner. We men, aren't we all Hulong taking the clothes in a bunch. Speaking of later, Xiao Muze was a little ashamed.
Liu Xinning heard this explanation and seemed to be reasonable.
Because, if Xiao Muze had known about this piece of golden silk red jade a long time ago, there would be no need to sell himself as a guard.
Therefore, she took the hairpin and looked at it.
The carver, uh, really......
"I carved it myself. Because the price of the craftsman who carved the hairpin is too high. The subordinates have limited money, so ......"
"Hands-on, friendship is heavier." Liu Xinning looked at Xiao Muze's embarrassed appearance and hurriedly comforted.
"That's what the county lord said." Hearing this, Xiao Muze was really happy.
Xiao Muze was to give a gift, so Liu Xinning accepted the gift, and the two of them said a few words before leaving.
