Queen's Development

Chapter 111
When she got outside, Yuzhi realized that it was snowing outside. The snowflakes were flying in the wind. The north wind was blowing the snowflakes, shaking the branches, and scratching her face like a knife, making her very uncomfortable.

She stretched out her hand to cover her cheeks, welcomed Lin Jia into the open room, stood on tiptoe and untied the tie of Lin Jia's cloak, took off the cloak and handed it to Han Hua: "Hit the snow on top!"

He also ordered Han Lin: "Go to the Nuan Pavilion on the corridor and order a cup of honey rose cinnamon and stewed tea for young master!"

After Han Lin and Han Hua had gone out, Yuzhi looked at Lin Jia with a smile: "I'm drinking today, drink some honey rose osmanthus tea and go to bed!"

Lin Jia nodded and sat down on the Arhat bed in Mingjian.

After taking a few sips of the hot honey rose tea, Lin Jia felt her whole body warmed up and felt much more comfortable.

He raised his eyes and saw Han Lin, Han Hua and Jin'er were all standing in the room, so he ordered: "You all step back, and don't come in unless you are asked to!"

The three of Han Hua answered "yes" and filed out.

Han Lin and Jin'er were fine, but Han Hua was very upset, stomped her feet in the corridor, and walked west along the corridor.

There is a glass hydrangea lamp hanging under the corridor, the light is bright, Jin'er looked down and saw a few footprints stamped by Hanhua on the ground covered with a thin layer of snow, she couldn't help laughing.

Han Lin also laughed, and said: "Don't pay attention to her, let's sit in the warm pavilion, what if Auntie and Young Master call us!"

Han Hua nodded and followed Han Lin to the Nuan Pavilion.

She thinks that Han Hua looks very good-looking, but she has a really bad temper; Han Lin looks cold as ice, a cold beauty, but has a very gentle personality.

Lin Jia washed up and went to bed, lying there, suddenly remembered Liang Yingyu's affectation in the evening, closed her eyes and said: "Liang Yingyu sent a maid over in the evening, saying that some of her hairpins fell into our place gone."

Yuzhi was overjoyed when she heard the words, and hurriedly asked, "Is it a brand new golden hairpin inlaid with rubies?"

Now I can finally get rid of this scary golden hairpin inlaid with rubies and pomegranate tree!
Lin Jia gave a "hmm" and said, "It seems so."

Yuzhi hurriedly got up and went to the bathroom, and soon came out with the ruby-studded pomegranate tree-shaped golden hairpin for Lin Jia to look at.

Lin Jia opened her eyes and looked over, and said, "It's really beautiful!"

He closed his eyes and thought about it. He always felt that he was thinking too much—the design of such jewelry is very ingenious, and the hair should be tightly grasped, unless Liang Yingyu jumped on the ground a few times or ran wildly in the inner courtyard. Otherwise, the hairpin will not fall off.

Even if it falls off, the jewelry is so big, will there be no sound?Are all the maids around her deaf and blind?
Could it be that she wants to use this hairpin to seduce Yuzhi?Or maybe she wants to blackmail Yuzhi...

But Yuzhi really doesn't have a few good jewelry and clothes...

Thinking of this, Lin Jia felt a little sad——Yu Zhi was so stupid that she didn't know how to ask him for clothes and jewelry...

He drank with Han Li today, because the conversation was too speculative, and he drank a few more glasses unconsciously. Lin Jia couldn't drink, and she couldn't hold it anymore, and fell asleep after thinking about it.

Seeing that Lin Jia's eyes were closed, Yuzhi put down the blue brocade curtain for him, and turned off the crystal shade lamp beside the bed, and then returned to the brocade couch where she slept.

The north wind is howling outside, the snowflakes are flying, the dripping water turns into ice, and the earth dragon grows in the bedroom, which is as warm as spring. It is a good time to study.

Yuzhi knelt on the brocade couch, just opened the window, a few snowflakes flew in.

She thought it was fun, smiled slightly, and reached out to take in the green porcelain bowl that was placed on the window sill to grow daffodils, and put it on the yellow rosewood shelf on the east side of the brocade couch, and then came to close the window.

In the bright halo of glazed hydrangea lamps under the corridor, snowflakes are flying densely, reminding Hollyhock to think of a saying in Tang Dynasty - "Suddenly like a spring breeze coming overnight, thousands of trees and pear trees bloom."

She closed the window and said to herself: If I can draw, I must draw this strange snow scene...

The next morning, Liang Yingyu and her two concubines, Liang Yingyun and Liang Yingmei, were enjoying the snow with the window open in the Nuan Pavilion in the garden, when Xiliu ran over in the snow.

After Xiliu took off her snow-covered coat, Liang Yingyu got up and said, "Go to the back and change!"

When Liang Yingyu brought Xiliu into the inner room, Liang Yingyun and Liang Yingmei looked at each other and said in their hearts: What is Liang Yingyu doing?How sneaky?
After entering the inner room, Liang Yingyu looked at Xiliu: "What's wrong?"

Xiliu wiped her wet face, took out a box from her bosom, and said softly: "Just now Li Rui, the housekeeper of the Lin House in Yanqingfang, came to see Madam and said that he found this hairpin at the gate of the inner courtyard. The master ordered someone to send it over, and the madam called the servant over and asked for a long time!"

Liang Yingyu opened the box, looked at the golden pomegranate hairpin inlaid with rubies inside, with a sneer on the corner of her mouth: "I didn't expect Jade Garden to pick up gold!"

Xiliu looked anxious: "Miss, then didn't we waste so much effort for nothing?"

Liang Yingyu picked up the hairpin and put it in her bun, smiled slightly and said, "But I also just got a reason to see Brother Ajia!"

Xiliu thought for a while, and said: "This is really..."

She smiled and complimented Xiliu: "Young lady is really smart!"

Liang Yingyu smiled, but did not speak.

As the only legitimate daughter in the family, she has developed this temperament since she was a child, and she must get what she wants, no matter what means she uses!
In the morning Lin Jia followed Han Li to study in the study all morning.

The snow stopped at noon, and Lin Jia returned to Tingsongyuan.

After lunch, Lin Jia was about to go out to meet guests, but she heard Yu Zhi say, "There are still a few days until New Year's Eve, and we have to prepare for the New Year!"

Hearing that Lin Jia's heart moved, she thought of Liang Yingyu's hairpin, and looked at Yuzhi: "I'll take you out to visit Yanqingfang!"

Before leaving, Dad gave him a jade pendant tied with a blue silk rope, and asked him to go to Yibao Building in Yanqingfang to meet the shopkeeper of Yibao Building.

Now I happened to take Yuzhi to have a look, and by the way, choose some jewelry for Yuzhi, and buy some clothes for her.

Yu Zhi's eyes sparkled when she heard the words, and her heart beat faster: "Is it really possible?"

She heard from Han Lin that Yanqingfang is the most prosperous place in the capital, there are many restaurants, jewelry stores, silk shops and clothing stores, and there are also flower markets and bookstores nearby, so she has long wanted to go shopping!

Seeing that her eyes were shining like stars, Lin Jia couldn't help laughing: "Of course it's true, when have I ever lied to you?"

A quarter of an hour later, Lin Jia and Yu Zhi dressed up as a young couple, took Li Rui and Alan out the door, and walked towards the downtown.

The snow had just stopped, and the snow on the road was trampled smooth. Seeing that Lin Jia almost slipped, Yu Zhi hurriedly supported Lin Jia, and said with a smile, "My lord, I will protect you!"

Li Rui who was following at the side always felt weird when he heard this sentence, but he couldn't tell what was wrong, so he looked at Yuzhi.

Yu Zhi was helping Lin Jia to walk, and found that Li Rui was looking at her, so she looked back with a smile - hey, Li Rui is very good-looking!

Li Rui: "..."

He silently looked away, admitting that he was not as straightforward as Aunt Yu.

The jewelry shop, silk and satin shop, rouge and gouache shop, and restaurants in Yanqingfang are concentrated on Zhuangyuan Street. Lin Jia took Yuzhi down Zhuangyuan Street under Li Rui's guidance.

Yuzhi looked at a jewelry store for a while, and felt that although they were all beautiful, they were all very expensive, and the little silver she brought was not enough, so she asked the shopkeeper with a smile: "Shopkeeper, do you have any cheaper jewelry? "

The shopkeeper glanced at Yuzhi in surprise, then looked at Lin Jia who was standing beside Yuzhi, and said in his heart: This young couple is dressed in luxurious clothes and looks elegant, they are clearly aristocrats, why do they want to look at cheap jewelry when they roll their names?

He was puzzled in his heart, and told the assistant: "Bring up that plate of cheap goods!"

The man was about to get it, but Lin Jia said, "No need!"

He looked down at the jewelry that the shopkeeper took out just now, and said: "We want this peony hairpin inlaid with rubies, this box of four seasons flower hairpins, this pair of red gold rings inlaid with gemstones, and this emerald phoenix spreading wings nobile. Let's pay the bill! "

Yuzhi quietly gave Lin Jia a glance, her eyes sparkling.

Lin Jia leaned closer to Yuzhi and said in a low voice: "You are my woman, so naturally I want to treat you well!"

Yuzhi: "...so disgusting!"

She glanced at Lin Jia and found that Lin Jia's ears were red, so she stopped teasing him, but said softly, "Ah Jia, thank you!"

Lin Jia is so generous to her, she must take good care of Lin Jia, protect Lin Jia, and be loyal to Lin Jiazhong!
This is the first time Yuzhi calls "Ajia", Lin Jia's heart beats a little fast, her eyes are watery, she dare not look at Yuzhi anymore.

Seeing Lin Jia like this, Yu Zhi laughed and said, "I will be loyal to you, I will do whatever you ask me to do!"

Lin Jia: "..."

He always felt that Yuzhi's words sounded strange!
Li Rui and Alan watched the two show off their affection the whole time.

Ah Lan is okay, Li Rui looked at Yu Zhi thoughtfully - "I will be loyal to you", is this what the beloved aunt should say to her master?Shouldn't it be something like "I will always love you"?
Could it be that Aunt Yu and Young Master...

He quietly observed Yuzhi, and found that Yuzhi's eyebrows were thick and beautiful, and the roots of her eyebrows were not messy, and they were flat on the skin near the brow bone, clearly still a virgin...

Wandering to the next jewelry shop, Yuzhi specially chose three silver hairpins, three red gold plum blossom hairpins and three gold rings, and planned to distribute them to Han Lin, Han Hua and Jin'er.

When buying clothes, Yuzhi specially bought some high-quality white silk and white silk, preparing to go back and make underwear for Lin Jia.

After strolling around for a while, Yuzhi had already reaped a lot. Not only Li Rui and A Lan were carrying various boxes, but even Lin Jia was carrying a bundle of clothes.

Seeing that there is Yibao Building in front of her, Lin Jia's heart beat a little faster, and she was about to take Yuzhi there, when she heard a voice behind her—"Huh? Is it Brother Ajia?"

Yu Zhi followed Lin Jia to look back, and found a tall young man with a handsome face and a tall figure standing there smiling and looking at them, followed by several guards in brocade clothes.
