Chapter Forty-Eight: Such a Precious Gift
"At the moment, the old lady just doesn't want to see Lu Lianzhi, this is far from enough, I'm afraid that I have to push things again to make things more interesting."
Dou Lianyi picked up the silver spoon, scooped a mouthful of blood swallow and sent it to his mouth, and after a while, he had a plan.
She called Bai Zhi to come close and whispered a few words in her ear.
“…… That's it, but try not to let you come forward, and don't let Xiao Liuzi be discovered. ”
"Got it, young lady, don't worry!"
Bai Zhi kept it in mind while listening, and her worship of Dou Lianyi deepened a little.
At this moment, Yuzhu also walked in from outside the house, still holding a long cloth wrap in his hand.
"Young lady, Boss Qin said that he didn't tell you in advance last time, so he rashly came to visit, and specially ordered someone to send this to you."
"What is this?"
Dou Lianyi asked Yuzhu to put the cloth wrap on the small table by the window with some curiosity, and then picked up the silver scissors to cut the tightly wrapped strip of cloth on the outside.
All of a sudden, the contents were revealed.
"Tokai Sujin?"
At the first glance, Dou Lianyi's eyes suddenly widened and he exclaimed.
Bai Zhi and Yuzhu looked at each other for a moment, they couldn't recognize what it was, so they asked cautiously, "Young lady, what is this?" It looks like just plain cloth. ”
"It looks mediocre, but in fact, there is another mystery in it."
Since marrying into the county prince's mansion, Dou Lianyi has not had the opportunity to wear clothes made of such precious fabrics, she raised her hand and gently stroked these horses of Donghai Sujin, and her eyes showed a slight look of nostalgia.
"You touch it, it's as smooth as tofu, and it's as light as a feather, and it's the most comfortable to wear on your body."
Bai Zhi stepped forward and touched it lightly, and couldn't help but exclaim: "It's really true!" ”
And Yuzhu also nodded, and responded: "It's really exactly the same as the young lady's clothes in the prime minister's mansion before!" ”
"Boss Qin's apology gift surprised me a little," Dou Lianyi frowned slightly, staring at the Donghai Sujin in his hand with a somewhat complicated mood, "Bai Zhi, you will go to the warehouse with me to pick out some return gifts for Boss Qin." ”
"Yes, young lady."
Bai Zhi paused, and then asked, "Is the young lady going to come to the door in person this time to return the gift?" ”
Dou Lianyi first instructed Yuzhu to put away the cloth, so as not to let people who didn't want to do it see it gossiping, and then raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows with some headaches, revealing the plain silver bracelet on his snow-white wrist.
It was specially bought by Fu Qing and given to her a few days ago.
Seeing this, Dou Lianyi had a wit and said to Bai Zhi: "Let Fu Qing send it, this kid is clever and knows what to say and what not to say, besides, he is now my nominal child, and he will not lose his etiquette and identity." ”
At this time, Yuzhu just wanted to put the cloth into the back room, but found that a letter fell out of the cloth wrapper, she hurriedly picked it up and brought it to Dou Lianyi.
"Young lady, there is another letter here."
"I'll see."
Dou Lianyi stretched out his hand to take it, opened it and saw that there were only a few lines of words in it.
"If Miss Dou wants to return the gift, Qin will welcome her at the Fengxue Pavilion at any time."
If she really sees words, she can almost see Qin Mu's itchy face through these words.
"Young lady?"
Seeing that Dou Lianyi didn't speak for a long time, Bai Zhi whispered a little puzzled.
As a result, he saw that Dou Lianyi's cheeks were slightly red, as if he was angry, he slapped the letter paper on the table with his backhand, and said expressionlessly: "That's it, you don't have to choose a return gift, I think people like Boss Qin don't lack us this return gift." ”
Although they didn't know what was written in the letter that made Dou Lianyi's attitude change suddenly, Bai Zhi and Yuzhu still didn't say anything more and retreated quietly.
The temperature of the blood swallow on the table was a little cold, and Dou Lianyi did not delay any longer, leaving Qin Mu behind for the time being, so as not to affect his appetite.
Because Dou Lianyi guessed that Lu Shangxuan would entangle herself because of the lack of silver taels in the account in the house, she asked Yuzhu to declare to the public early that she was in poor health during this period of time, and it was not appropriate to blow the wind and see people.
Therefore, when Lu Shangxuan cleaned up his mood and appeared outside Dou Lianyi's courtyard, Yuzhu immediately came out and stopped him directly.
"Young master, the young lady's body has not recovered yet, and she can't see anyone for the time being."
"Why is she sick too?"
Lu Shangxuan frowned and asked impatiently.
"Back to the young master, it was probably because the autumn wind blew too much, and there was another autumn rain, and the young lady herself was not in good health, so she fell ill."
"Have you had a doctor?"
"I've seen it," Yuzhu replied calmly, "The doctor also said so, let the young lady lie quietly in bed now, and try not to catch a cold again." ”
Lu Shangxuan originally wanted to just pull out his legs and leave, but when he thought that the dowry had not yet been obtained, he paused a little unwillingly, and said to Yuzhu: "It's been a few days, and it's not in the way for me to go in and take a look, right?" ”
"No, please don't make it difficult for the slave and maid."
No matter how soft and hard Lu Shangxuan was, Yuzhu firmly blocked the gate of the courtyard and prevented him from entering.
"Take care of your young lady, I'll come again!"
Seeing this, Lu Shangxuan could only have a black face, and turned away with anger in his eyebrows.
When he was far away, Yuzhu hurriedly ran back to the house to report the incident to Dou Lianyi.
"Young lady, I was really right by you, the young master really came to you."
Dou Lianyi in the room was half-leaning against the window, and when he heard this, he just held his chin with his hands and nodded lazily.
"He'll be here for a few days, just don't let him in."
"Got it, young lady."
In the next few days, Lu Shangxuan did come to Dou Lianyi every day, so attentive that everyone in the county king's mansion began to talk about it.
"What's the matter, young master, I've never seen him care so much about the young lady before."
"That's it, the young master didn't go to see the old lady every day, could it be that the young lady is really so sick?"
"Who knows? However, I heard that the young lady's courtyard has a continuous blood swallow every day, and even the young master Fu Qing has the same good. ”
"That's a good thing, hey."
After the few maids who were talking about it walked away, Lu Shangxuan walked out from behind the big tree, his face was gloomy, and he obviously listened to what he had just said.
Huang Ying's uneven voice came from behind him, "Young Master, does the young lady take you seriously, even the old lady and you are now eating ordinary bird's nest, why does she eat blood swallows every day so luxuriously." ”
"Okay, Lianniang, she is sick now, and it's normal to eat blood swallows to replenish her body."
Lu Shangxuan pursed his lips vigorously, and stared at Dou Lianyi's courtyard for a long time with dark eyes.
"Young Master, you are too conniving with the young lady!"
