The only favorite Qing Palace: Concubine Xi An

Chapter 19 Birthday
"Are you back? Come and sit down." Fourth master waved to Lan Xin.

The maids around Fourth Master, including those around Lan Xin, all retreated obediently and stayed aside.

Lan Xin sat next to Fourth Master, picked up the teapot on the round table, and poured herself a cup of tea.

This tea was ordered by Lv Liu to brew before going out.When Lan Xin went out, she only brought Yuxiu with her.

Fourth Master looked at Lan Xin and said nothing.The room was very quiet, as if the only thing that could be heard was the sound of burning silver coals.

"Hmm... seems to be a little fatter." The fourth master took Lan Xin's hand, stroked it for a while, and said.When touched by hand, it seems that there is a little more meat.

"In addition to three meals a day, my concubine also eats snacks in the afternoon and evening. Can I not get fat?" Lan Xin felt that the two clothes she made when she first entered the mansion were already a little tight. .

"Lan Xin. When you were in the mansion, how did you celebrate your birthday?" Fourth Master decided to return to the topic.

"Ama and Erniang will both give big red envelopes to concubines!" When Lan Xin mentioned the red envelopes, a trace of cunning passed by in her eyes.She looked like a thief, as if she was also looking forward to fourth master giving her a big red envelope.

After hearing this, fourth master scraped Lan Xin's nose bone with his hand.Laughing loudly, he said, "No wonder Lan Xin embroidered a purse of Pixiu and gave it to Master. It turned out that he was thinking of using Pixiu to keep money. Master, I have to see if there is a Pixiu in Lan Xin's house." OK."

After finishing speaking, fourth master stood up and walked around Lan Xin's room.

This time, it was the first time for fourth master to look carefully at Lan Xin's room.Although the furnishings in the house are quite satisfactory, the grilles pasted on the windows are very beautiful.As for the more valuable decorations, there is no such thing.

"What did fourth master say! Fourth master just asked my concubine how she spent her birthday in the mansion, but she came up with so many words." Lan Xin said, annoyed.

"Okay. I'm just joking. Whatever Lan Xin wants, I'll give you everything." After finishing speaking, the fourth master took out a red envelope from his pocket.

Inside is 200 taels of silver bills.

Although Lan Xin was happy, she couldn't help but said: "Fourth Master is outstanding in government affairs. But he is messed up in this woman's matter."

"Why is this?" Fourth master was puzzled.

"My concubine stays in the mansion all day, how should I spend the one-hundred-twenty-one-chapter silver ticket? It's not as easy as breaking the silver, and you can get the food box for rewarding people." Lan Xin said, with a face on her face. Just laughing.She looked at fourth master carefully.

Fourth master was not annoyed after hearing this.He also smirked and said, "You are right."

This thing should be like this, smoother.

"Then, I will send someone to bring it to you later." The fourth master said, "Now, let's see what birthday present the master has prepared for you, shall we?"

"Good!" Lan Xin was also very happy.Fourth master, this is a birthday present specially prepared for her.

Lan Xin didn't ask for anything else, only fourth master's kindness was enough for her to be very happy.

Su Peisheng outside the house heard fourth master's voice.Then he ordered people to bring the things in.The gift was packed in a big box, the box was square, and it was impossible to tell what was inside.

"Fourth Master, what is this?" Lan Xin looked at the big box on the table, left and right.After watching, he turned his eyes to fourth master.That appearance is the appearance of wanting to open the box.

Lan Xin opened the box and saw the things inside, which also looked square.Impressively, it was a revolving lantern.

The revolving lantern, the paper-cut is the wheel, and the candle is used to blow it, and the car and the horse will gallop, and the round will stop, and the candle will stop when the candle is extinguished.

"Walking lantern?" Lan Xin exclaimed.

This revolving lantern is a thing of the Han people.Generally speaking, it always appears on days like Lantern Festival, Qixi Festival or Mid-Autumn Festival.The workmanship of the revolving horse lantern is exquisite, as long as the candles in the lamp are lit, the whole lamp will turn.The pattern inside the lamp shines on the wall through the lamp wall, and the whole room is gorgeous and bright.

It's just that the one sent by fourth master is quite different.

This revolving lantern has eight sides in total.Come to think of it, it is also called Babao Revolving Horse Lantern.The silk gauze on each side is painted with different patterns, Lan Xin saw that except for the common magpies and flowers of various colors.On the other side, a pair of mandarin ducks are embroidered.

"Do you like it?" Fourth Master looked at Lan Xin in a daze, and couldn't help asking.

The patterns on this Eight Treasures Revolving Horse Lantern were drawn by him himself.

"I like it, thank you fourth master." Lan Xin said, she quietly sat down next to fourth master, and said softly.

How could Lan Xin not like such a beautiful carousel?

A 14-year-old girl, isn't that what she likes the most.

"Light the candles at night, it will look better." The fourth master took Lan Xin's hand and said again: "My master stayed up for several nights to draw the pattern on the lamp!"

Fourth Master felt that Lan Xin should know what he had done.Although, he didn't do it to get something in return.

When Lan Xin heard this, she was even more moved.

"Fourth Master is so kind." Lan Xin said, and buried her head in Fourth Master's shoulder again.

Fourth master often practiced martial arts, this broad shoulder was very comfortable for Lan Xin.

The two just sat like this, as if, after a lifetime.Until, fourth master heard Xiao Lanxin's breathing beside him.Only then did she realize that she had dozed off unknowingly.

Fourth Master was helpless, and couldn't give Lan Xin a cloak.He had no choice but to signal Su Peisheng outside the door with his other hand, and then Su Peisheng took a cloak of Lan Xin and covered her up.

Seeing the cloak, fourth master felt that it was not very good.

Not to mention the old style, the material selection of the cloak can only be regarded as moderate.In this winter in the capital, I'm afraid it's not enough to keep warm.

There was a burst of numbness on the shoulders.Sitting, fourth master couldn't help moving his shoulders.

This time, Lan Xin woke up.

Lan Xin opened her eyes, startled.She fell asleep leaning on fourth master's shoulder without knowing it?
Thinking of this, Lan Xin couldn't help touching her mouth.

Fortunately, no drooling this time.

When fourth master came to Cuiyu Pavilion before, the two of them lay down and took a nap together.As a result, Lan Xin lay beside fourth master, drooling a little.Fortunately, fourth master didn't seem to notice.

Seeing Lan Xin's reaction, fourth master smiled.After she raised her head, she rubbed her shoulders.There was a tingling sensation in his shoulder.

Lan Xin also rubbed her own neck.While rubbing, he also muttered: "Fourth master, it's true, I don't call me a concubine when I'm asleep. Right now, my neck is hurting."

Fourth master found it even more funny.He didn't say that Lan Xin pressed her shoulder, but Lan Xin complained first.

"Master, come and see, how is your shoulder?" Fourth Master said, and stretched out his hand.

As soon as he touched his neck, fourth master began to behave irregularly.

At this moment, Lan Xin regretted it.

Su Peisheng, who was standing at the door, heard the movement in the room, and quickly closed the door, and then walked away.
