lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of the Spring Festival Banquet!
At the second day of Mao, the White House.
The oil lamp on the table was burned out, and Lingxiu, who was dozing off with his head in the morning light outside, was awakened by a muffled sound outside the door.
What's going on? She rubbed her eyes, got up suspiciously, and opened the door.
Standing outside the door is a dignified and generous beauty, with a graceful back and dark hair like a cloud, shining in a brocade dress with a pattern of Yaochi peony. The embroidery on the skirt is exquisite, the layered petals, even the stamens are very clear, and between the swings, it seems that the wind has blown through someone's peony garden, and the fragrance can still be faintly smelled.
Lingxiu stared blankly, and asked cautiously: "This noble man, who are you looking for?"
Hearing her voice, Beauty turned her head and yawned: "Are you awake? Come and help me."
Apricot eyes and cherry lips, small porcelain white face, look familiar. Lingxiu stared at her in amazement for a while, and suddenly exclaimed: "Miss?!"
Huaiyu smiled at her: "It's a bit late to come back, but it should be in time. You hold this one."
As she said, she stuffed a heavy pinewood makeup box into her arms, and then went through the door to drink two sips of cold tea.
Lingxiu held the makeup box in a daze, and followed her into the house two steps, still shocked: "Where did your clothes come from?"
After swallowing the tea and taking a breath, Huaiyu said, "Someone else gave it."
What? Sent? Lingxiu shook her head repeatedly. how can that be possible? This kind of good material is not worse than the ones in the palace, not to mention such exquisite embroidery, which is worth half a year's salary of the master, whoever has a bad brain will give it away for free!
"Don't worry about this for now." Putting down the tea cup, Li Huaiyu got up and went to the dressing table. "When I came back over the wall, I saw a carriage waiting at the door of the White House. Hurry up and choose jewelry for me, and wait. As soon as they go, let's go too."
Lingxiu was full of suspicion, but now Jiang Mansion was the top priority, so she hurriedly took the makeup box and opened it, planning to take two pieces of jewelry to embellish the lady.
As soon as she opened the makeup box, she was dumbfounded again.
"Huh?" There was no movement next to him for a while, and Huaiyu looked down at her strangely.
Lingxiu opened her mouth and widened her eyes, pointing at the things in the makeup box and turning her face pale: "Miss, did you go to grab the jewelry shop?"
"..." Can't laugh or cry, Huaiyu shook his forehead and muttered to herself, "Just say don't let him be so exaggerated."
There are two sets of precious heads in the makeup box, along with some scattered hairpins, steppers, and flower tins. The golden and jade are mixed into one, which is very dazzling. Take a gold wire and eight treasures to save the bead hairpin at will, they are all ingenious and good looks, and they are very valuable at first glance.
When Lu Jingxing picked it up for her, he frowned and said: "I really feel distressed."
It can be said that, the things that should be given to her were not soft at all, and in the end she couldn't stand it anymore, and he punched him against the wall before he stopped.
"Are you crazy?" she asked, staring.
Lu Jingxing rubbed his chest and sighed: "I have to be beaten as a gift. How can there be such a thing."
Standing up straight and inserting the last hairpin on her hair bun, he smiled again: "But you, no matter what you look like, you must be graceful and luxurious."
Li Huaiyu rolled his eyes at him.
Now when I think of Lu Jingxing's expression at the time, Huaiyu feels that this kid mostly regretted her death, so now she has changed her way to make up for the regret.
Huh, as expected, you have to lose it once before you know how precious it is.
With two sighs, Huaiyu picked up a set of heads and faces and shook them one by one, and stuffed them into Lingxiu's hands: "Your lady is sitting steadily. If you haven't stolen or robbed, you can rest assured. Right."
This is obviously not convincing, Lingxiu frowns, but still Yiyan tidy up her hair bun and wears her jewelry.
The fourth lady of the Bai family, who seemed to have settled down, was dressed up like this and immediately became a noble princess.
Looking at the person in the mirror, Huaiyu was still satisfied, so she got up and took Lingxiu out.
At that moment, Bai Dezhong had already taken Bai Xuanji into the carriage. Li Huaiyu and Lingxiu hid in the corner outside the courtyard wall and waited, waiting for the carriage to exit the official road before they stood out.
"Miss." Lingxiu asked hesitantly, "have you figured out how to get to Jiangfu?"
"How else can I go?" Huaiyu smiled, "Come on a ride."
"The slave maid did not say that." Lingxiu shook her head. "The guards of the Jiang Mansion were already strict, and the young master Jiang had a feast. The guests must rely on the post to get in and out. You can get the car, but you can't get the post. No one can enter."
When I heard this, Huaiyu was dumbfounded: "Why didn't you say it earlier?"
"..." Just now I just looked at the outfit of Miss Shocked, and I didn't think of it.
Lingxiu sighed and grabbed the veil and said in a low voice: "Actually, you regretted your slavery last night. You shouldn't be embarrassing your master like this. If you can't go, you can't go. As long as the master is well, our days I can live it too."
Li Huaiyu looked back at her.
This little girl clearly cares about this matter and cares terribly, but now she is comforting her, her nose is red and her eyes are firm.
Sighed, she was about to say something, but from the corner of her eye she saw someone coming from a distance.
"That person..." He squinted and said, "Look, see, is he embroidered with the word'Jiang' on his chest?"
Looking at her gaze, Lingxiu nodded: "I am the slave of Jiang Mansion."
The eyes lit up after "rubbing" the ground, and Huaiyu stretched out her hand to push her out: "While he hasn't got to the front door, hurry up and get a close fit."
Lingxiu was stunned: "What does the set almost do?"
"You are stupid." Huaiyu stomped, "You go to catch his attention. I attacked him from behind, knocked him out and took off his clothes. There is no way for us to get into Jiang Mansion! "
Too shocked, Lingxiu shook her head like a rattle: "This won't work! It won't work! It won't work!"
"Oh, don't be long-winded, I'll be with your lady in everything, go!" Pushing her out hard, Huaiyu hid her in the dark, intending to wait for an opportunity.
Lingxiu stood stiffly in the middle of the road.
The slave had something in his hand and walked in a hurry. Seeing Lingxiu from a distance, she greeted him with joy: "Is it the maid of the White House?"
"...Yes."
"Do you recognize the Fourth Miss?"
"Recognize, I just serve her."
The slave was greatly relieved, smiled and handed her what was in his hand: "This is our little master specially sent to Miss Bai Si..."
Post.
The last word was not spoken, and the slave only felt a "choking" from the back of his neck, and then there was darkness in front of him.
Li Huaiyu blew his hand and looked at Lingxiu triumphantly: "How about? I'm good, right?"
Lingxiu: "..."
"Huh? Why do you look like this?" Looking down at the thing she was holding, Huaiyu raised her eyebrows, "What is this?"
