When we returned to the General's Mansion, it was not too late. Lin Banxia had some food alone in the courtyard and then went back to the side courtyard.
She arranged the things she had not arranged during the day again. Before taking a bath, when she took off her hairpin jewelry in front of the dressing table as usual, her fingers touched her ears and found nothing.
One of her earrings fell off.
At that moment, Lin Banxia's heart skipped a beat, almost jumping out of her throat. Her fingers trembled, and she brushed the hair behind her ears again. No, she stood up in a hurry, but her whole body was full of I searched all over, but still can't find it.
It's not that Lin Banxia has never lost something, but in the past, no matter what she lost, she could find it slowly and calmly, finding the best thing, and there was nothing she could do if she couldn't find it. After all, it was something she couldn't control. .
But this time, Lin Banxia was in chaos.
She was so anxious that her heart was about to jump out. Her whole brain was buzzing. She rolled her eyes anxiously, pushed away the chair, squatted down, opened her eyes very wide, and stretched out her hands on the blanket on the ground in a panic. Touching everywhere…
But until she almost searched the entire room, she couldn't find it.
Now Lin Banxia was really about to cry. She opened the door and knew that everyone in the house had gone to rest. She did not stir up trouble because of this, so she walked through the courtyard one by one today. Find the corner...
She searched very carefully for fear of missing any corner.
However, Lin Banxia kept looking for Tianhei and searched the whole courtyard for a long time, but still could not find the earring.
She had to look outside the side courtyard. The housekeeper soon found Lin Banxia who was looking for something. After asking about it, he saw that the young lady was anxious and worried, so he knew that this earring was very important to the young lady, so , the housekeeper did not dare to neglect, and quickly asked his subordinates to come over to help find him.
The more Lin Banxia searched, the more frightened she became, as if a bottle of hourglass was tilting and draining away bit by bit on the tip of her heart. She knew there was nothing she could do, but she still desperately wanted to hold on to the last bit of hope.
She was afraid that she wouldn't be able to catch even the last spark.
She didn't want to watch it disappear.
The sky was getting dark, and Lin Banxia knew that the entire general's mansion was doing their best, and she didn't want them to stay here with her just because she wanted to stay with her, so she lied to them that she had found it and would wait until they were dismissed. After seeing them, he continued to look for them silently.
She squatted in the corridor, holding a small lantern in her hand to illuminate her sight, and looked for it carefully with her eyes wide open.
The housekeeper appeared behind him and sighed: "Young madam, why are you so kind? You haven't found the earrings yet..."
Lin Banxia sniffed and said in a low voice, "It doesn't matter, I can just find it myself..."
The housekeeper shook his head, took the lantern and went elsewhere to help her go. But not long after, the housekeeper heard the news and came over to report to Lin Banxia, "Young madam, someone from the general came to say that there is a gathering in the military camp today. , the general will come back later, the general asked you not to wait for him."
Lin Banxia didn't know whether she heard the housekeeper's words. She lowered her head and still touched every corner of the corridor with her hands. She crouched and moved forward in small steps. With each step forward, her disappointment increased. one cent.
The housekeeper probably guessed the earring that the young lady lost.
