Chapter 187 Brick Love Letter
But in the future, I'm afraid it won't work if I don't contact him, because the road to that person is destined to be muddy and tortuous.

She also thought about giving up, but it was just a stubbornness in her nature. She could give up because she didn't like to give up, but she couldn't give up because of difficulties...

The small booklet was carefully placed in the sewing basket under the Kang table, and the robe next to it was more than half finished...

Taking advantage of the fine weather, Aunt Liu specially came to the backyard of Lu's house and urged Xiaomi to order clothes and jewelry quickly.

Xiaomi simply opened the warehouse, and moved all the cloth collected this year to Mrs. Tie's kang. She also picked out the bag of jewelry that Gao Ren carried, and then carried it over.

Those cloths are all high-quality silks and satins, and the designs and colors are also fresh and popular. Most of them are purchased by Chen Xin in Kyoto, and the other half are sent by shopkeeper Chen on weekdays.

A woman's nature is to love beauty, even when she gets old, this nature has not changed.Mrs. Tie, Aunt Liu, and Aunt Feng and Aunt Han surrounded Xiaomi, and they kept opening the cloth and putting it on her body, comparing skin colors, discussing styles, making Xiaomi feel like a puppet, being moved back and forth, tossing and tossing sweating profusely.

After finally choosing the materials for three sets of dresses, Xiaomi sat down on the kang, unable to live or die.

"Ma'am, auntie, let's take a break and spare my life. Don't wait until the ceremony is not held, and torture me to death first."

"Bah, bah, bah!" Aunt Liu quickly spit on the ground, and said angrily, "Children's words are unscrupulous, the strong wind blows them away. What strange words are you talking about, a good girl, and she has no sense in her mouth."

Xiaomi stuck out her tongue and lay on the table pretending to be a dead dog, making everyone laugh.

Aunt Liu tore out a piece of fine cotton cloth and measured it. She wanted to sew clothes and socks for Xiaomi. Xiaomi was really impatient to make clothes racks.So he quickly pulled out the jewelry bag and greeted everyone, "Pick out the jewelry first, and then continue to toss the clothes later."

The plain satin package attracted everyone's attention almost as soon as it was opened.

Even after seeing it for the second time, Aunt Han couldn't help being amazed.Even if the master she served originally had a generous dowry, the jewelry box was not more than a third of it.

Begonias with a single heart and tasseled flower hairpins, ruby ​​gold flowers with water drops, red gold bracelets with glossy openings, long bluestone and pearl chains, silver hairpins with red magnolia flower heads, hairpins with golden flowers and leaves inlaid with pearls, small emerald jade gourd earrings, and even Hairpin with emerald head and gold body with longevity characters...

There are so many kinds of jewelry in various styles and colors. Hundreds of pieces of jewelry are piled up in packages like cabbage in the market, making the old and young girls tremble with distress.

Shouldn't such a baby be found with the best sandalwood makeup and put away neatly?Even if you don't wear it, if you have nothing to do, you will be as satisfied as if you own the whole world...

"This is really..."

Aunt Liu was so shocked that she didn't know what to say, she had never seen so many good things in her life.

Even Feng Niang and Mrs. Tie stared at each other. The master and servant looked at each other, both more and more surprised, but most of them felt that they had underestimated the eldest son of Chen.Since he can send so many precious jewelry to Xiaomi, he treats Xiaomi very well compared to him, and the business in Kyoto is huge...

Xiaomi coughed in embarrassment, a little thankful that he had just picked out all those jewelry that were related to dragons and phoenixes, or that were too luxurious.

"Well, ma'am, we don't know what kind of jewelry Jijili needs, please help me choose."

Mrs. Tie took a deep look at Xiaomi and sighed in her heart, but she didn't hesitate in her hands, she searched through it, and finally picked out a white magnolia hairpin with a jade head and a silver body, and a golden crown with eight treasures.

"Remember to embroider a ropa, the pattern should be festive, and you need to use it when you add it. This hairpin and gold crown are reserved for another addition and three additions."

Aunt Han hurriedly put the hairpin and golden crown aside alone, and Aunt Liu responded with an excuse, "Xiaomi always said that Gui Zhier of my family is good at embroidery, so I let her embroider the handkerchief. Both are here, and two more sons were born.”

"Okay, thank sister-in-law Gui Zhier for me."

Xiaomi quickly thanked her, and Aunt Liu smiled and waved her hands, "My family, you're welcome."

Mrs. Tie didn't talk to her, she picked out some small accessories, jade rings for skirts, earrings, bracelets, and then gave up.

Aunt Liu saw the rest of the jewelry lying in a mess, she couldn't bear it anymore, she tapped Xiaomi's forehead and said, "You prodigal girl, you just throw such precious things away like this! Oh, I'd better go back and let your Uncle Liu Hurry up and make a jewelry box, it's not good to waste things like this."

While talking, she ran away in a hurry and disappeared.

Originally, the atmosphere in the room was still a bit weird, but after being disturbed by her like this, the ice was broken instantly, and everyone laughed.

Xiaomi raised his hand and picked up the birthday hairpin and put it in front of Mrs. Tie, and said with a smile, "Madam's hairpin was lost before, and I'm afraid it won't be until spring to find it. If Madam doesn't dislike it, why don't you use this one first."

Mrs. Tie was taken aback when she heard that, and seeing Xiaomi closing the package in a frenzy, she really didn't look stingy, so she nodded and said, "Okay, thank you very much."

"Ma'am, you're being polite. I still hope to learn from you. This is Shu Xiu!"

"Given all of Shu Xiu, what's the point of stealing from a teacher?"

Mrs. Tie was amused, and raised her hand to insert the hairpin into her bun, "Whatever you want to learn, just ask."

Xiaomi was overjoyed, "That's good, I will pester Madam from now on, Madam, don't think I'm annoying."

"No." Mrs. Tie nodded seriously, "Since you want to learn, you have to learn the rules. If there is negligence, I will punish you."

"Ah?" Xiaomi pretended to be pitiful, and grabbed Mrs. Tie's sleeve, "How will the lady be punished? Can you punish me to eat two more bowls of rice and make two more new clothes..."

This is not a punishment, it is obviously a favor.Both Feng Niang and Aunt Han laughed, and Mrs. Tie couldn't hold back the corners of her mouth, "What is the punishment, we'll talk about it later."

Just kidding, but Xiaomi really wants to learn the rules. Some things may not be used right now, but when she needs to use them, she can't suffer because of them.

Mrs. Tie lives as a guest, and likes Xiaomi's cleverness, so she teaches with great care.As big as three kowtows and nine obeisances to meet the emperor, as small as the details of distinguishing good from evil when ladies get together, they all explained it carefully with Xiaomi.

Xiaomi is pure and innocent by nature, learning is like painting on blank paper, and the results are remarkable.The books she read, the things she did, the people she met, and the things she learned in her previous life made her always have a wider vision and more knowledge than the woman in this time and space, which often made Mrs. Tie admire secretly.

In this way, the old and the young are stuck together almost day and night in this winter, and gradually they seem to forget the year.

On this day, it was already the twelfth lunar month, and the Lu family had dinner just as it was getting dark.Xiaomi was worried that Mrs. Tie's arrangement of the atlases during the day could not be recited fluently, so she hurriedly ate a mouthful of food, asked Mrs. Jiang to tidy up the kitchen, and anxiously went back to the backyard to study.

But as soon as he entered the corner door in the backyard, Gao Ren turned over from the wall.

Seeing that his nose was red from the cold, Xiaomi couldn't help complaining, "Where did you go to make trouble in such a cold day? What if you catch a cold?"

Gao Ren smiled and patted the snowflakes on his shoulders, and finally pulled out a thick envelope from his arms, raised his hand and threw it into Xiaomi's arms, shouting, "Look at it, I'm starving to death, I can eat it all!" Pot braised pork!"

After finishing speaking, he rushed to the front yard to find something to eat.

Leaving Xiaomi holding the brick-like envelope in his hand, he didn't recover for a while.

When she finally figured out where the envelope came from, she blushed with joy.

Blue and white burned the big kang in the west wing, and when she came out, she saw that the master's face was not right, and asked, "Girl, do you have a fever?"

The word fever is a big deal in the Lu family, especially for Xiaomi.Although she always felt a little weird, she didn't dare to cause misunderstandings easily, so she quickly responded, "What are you talking about, I'm fine. Go to the front yard and tell Aunt Han that you don't need to come over tonight. Get some sleep."

"Yes, girl."

Qinghua was afraid of being scolded again, so she ran to the front yard with her pigtails.Leaving Xiaomi behind, he didn't even remember to gossip with Mrs. Tie, so he went straight back to the room.

After taking off her dress, washing her hands, lighting up the oil lamp, and sitting in front of the table, she opened the envelope with trepidation and anticipation.

The thick letter paper, densely packed in small letters, is full of thousands of words.The man he had previously complained about for his lack of talk, seemed to be self-taught, and instantly ignited his chatterbox nature. From the big things that happened in the capital to the small things that the meat porridge brought by the cook in the early morning was not as fragrant as hers, he listed them all. out.Of course, those three words are the most common, "I miss you."

Xiaomi read one after another, sometimes blushing, sometimes amused, sometimes couldn't help sighing, wishing he could grow wings and fly to that person...

It's a pity that thousands of mountains and rivers are easy to get through, but some knots are hard to resolve after all...

"Girl, girl!"

I don't know how long it took, there was a call outside the door, which roughly pulled Xiaomi's soul wandering in the capital back.

She frowned angrily and asked, "What's the matter? Didn't you tell me not to disturb me if there's nothing to do?"

Qing Hua'er outside the door held her mouth aggrieved, and whispered, "Girl, the eldest young master is back, just down the mountain, the master has already gone, and I want to report to the girl."

"Ah, big brother is back!"

Xiaomi was startled, pulled off a cloak and was about to go out, but remembered that there was still a love letter from Brick that had not been disposed of, so he quickly stuffed it into the cabinet and locked it, and then hurried out.

At this moment, the sky was already very dark, and countless torches had already been lit at the foot of Laoxiong Ridge.The villagers who heard the news all gathered there, this one shouted for his son, and that one welcomed his father back, all of them were ecstatic.

Although the parting is only two or three months old, for the relatives, the days are like years.

Especially after experiencing the siege of officers and soldiers and earthquakes and landslides, when we meet again now, everyone feels a little bit of the rest of their lives, and the tears can't be stopped.

Old Master Feng picked up his son and grandson, and after asking a few words, the old man looked a little unhappy, and turned to greet everyone, "It's too cold today, don't go outside, if you have something to say, go home .”
