Xiao Cui returned to the room with a smile on her face after receiving the hairpin given by Qingyan. The maid in the room looked envious when she saw the hairpin in her hand. She didn't want to tell Chai Yiyun at first, but she knew that there were also some in the yard. Chai Yiyun's other eyeliners.
If he doesn't tell her, she will definitely be the one who ends up miserable in the end. After all, in Chai Yiyun's eyes, she is just a chess piece, and a useless chess piece will only become a discarded piece.
Xiao Cui glanced at the hairpin and prayed secretly: Miss, don't blame Xiao Cui. Xiao Cui had no choice but to do this.
After Xiao Cui put the hairpin into her sleeve, she saw Ju Yue standing next to Chai Yiyun at the door, saying something to the little maid. After a while, the little girl called Xiao Cui out.
When Ju Yue saw Xiao Cui, she said angrily, "Xiao Cui, do you know that your current master is not the Fourth Miss."
Listening to Ju Yue's words, Xiao Cui lowered her head and responded submissively, "It's Xiao Cui's master who is now Madam. Xiao Cui is about to report this matter to Madam."
Juyue glanced at Xiaocui with disdain and then left with her.
When she saw Chai Yiyun, she was dressing up. When she saw Xiaocui, she smiled and said, "I heard that girl rewarded you with a hairpin. Is this true?"
When Xiaocui heard what Chai Yiyun said, she took out the hairpin and gave it to Chai Yiyun, "This is the hairpin that the lady gave to this slave."
Chai Yiyun looked at the appearance of the hairpin. It was not something she had seen before. She picked it up and played with it in her hand, "Xiaocui, what kind of jewelry do you think a servant of yours should wear."
Xiao Cui knew that this was Chai Yiyun's intention to keep the hairpin as her own, so Xiao Cui quickly responded in a low voice, "If Madam likes it, just give it to Madam."
Chai Yiyun nodded with satisfaction after listening to her words. After she glanced at Mei Xue beside her, Mei Xue took out a piece of silver and handed it to her, "I will treat this money as buying this hairpin."
Xiaocui smiled and took the money bag from Mei Xue's hand, "Thank you, madam."
After Chai Yiyun asked some other trivial things, she asked Juyue to send her out.
Chai Yiyun had been looking at the hairpin in her hand. At this time, she only felt that this hairpin was more suitable for Su Qingwen, and then she asked Lanzhi to give the hairpin to Su Qingwen.
Su Qingwen couldn't put it down when she saw the hairpin, and told Juxiang to wear the hairpin tomorrow morning.
And all this was within Qingyan's expectation.
***
The next morning, Qingyan got up early and sat in front of the dressing mirror, waiting for Bai Zhi to come and comb her hair. However, looking at the appearance in the mirror, she couldn't help but think of the man who drew her eyebrows.
The phrase "After putting on makeup, lower your head and ask your husband-in-law, the eyebrows are light and dark," vaguely echoed in her ears.
When she thought of this, Qingyan smiled and raised the corners of her lips.
So when Bai Zhi came in, she saw her giggling in front of the mirror. Looking at Qingyan's appearance, Bai Zhi smiled and said, "Miss, what happy event happened?"
Qingyan heard Bai Zhi's words and looked back at her, "You have become bolder, even I dare to make fun of you."
Bai Zhi put down the basin in her hand as she spoke, "Even if I'm brave, I don't dare to tease the young lady."
After Qingyan washed up, she sat in front of the dressing table, "Bai Zhi will just do her hair in a simple bun today. Yesterday I heard from Qing Dai that classes at Bogu Hall are about to start again."
"That's right." Bai Zhi said and quickly combed a bun on Qingyan's head. She glanced at the jewelry box on the table and said, "Ms., I will bring this gift from my wife recently." That jasper gold hairpin was given by the lady as a dowry."
Qingyan's lips curled up after listening to Bai Zhi's words, "Okay, since it is a dowry from my mother, it is naturally excellent. Bai Zhi, I will wear that hairpin today."
Bai Zhi glanced at Qingyan and then started to look for the hairpin in the jewelry box, but she couldn't find the hairpin.
"Miss, the hairpin that Madam gave to Miss is missing." Bai Zhi looked at Qingyan and said anxiously, "Did Miss forget to put it somewhere yesterday?"
"Impossible, I haven't been out in the past few days, and I have never worn that hairpin." Qingyan looked at Bai Zhi and said impatiently, "Why don't you hurry up and find someone to find it? If you lose that hairpin, I will The lady wants you to look good."
After Zi Zhu heard the noise coming from the room, she quickly opened the door and asked what happened, but Bai Zhi could only explain the cause and effect.
After Zi Zhu listened carefully, she immediately ordered her servants to look for the hairpin.
Although others didn't know what the hairpin looked like, Xiao Cui was secretly complaining. She really didn't expect Qingyan to make such a show.
The hairpin was naturally missing, and Su Qingyan knew very well about her removal. Looking at Xiaocui's appearance underneath, Qingyan raised the corners of her lips.
Third Aunt, you must be ready to accept this first big gift I give you!
Although she didn't find the hairpin, Qingyan still picked one of her favorite hairpins and went to pay her respects to Su Jia.
When Qingyan walked into Meixiangyuan, she saw the hairpin on Su Qingwen's head, and she knew that everything was performed according to her script.
"Yan'er would like to say hello to grandma." Qingyan looked at Su Jiashi and said with a smile, "grandma looks much better today than before."
When Su Jiashi looked at Qingyan, her originally cold face suddenly turned into a kind one, "Yan'er, you're here, come and sit next to grandma."
This scene not only made Ning Siyao and Chai Yiyun feel uncomfortable watching it, but also made the other children feel uncomfortable watching it.
Ning Siyao thought about what happened a few days ago, and the look she looked at her was as cruel as quenched poison, but Qingyan seemed not to notice her look.
"Why is Yan'er wearing such a plain hairpin today?" Su Jia looked at the hairpin on Qingyan's head and asked with concern, "Didn't the princess buy you new jewelry?"
Qingyan looked at Su Jiashi's embarrassment and said, "This morning, Yan'er was going to wear the hairpin given by her mother as a dowry, but who would have thought that the hairpin had been lost and she could not find it all morning."
"Why were you so careless?" Su Jiashi looked at Qingyan and shook her head helplessly, "But there was a thief in the yard and it was stolen by the thief." She said and nodded her forehead.
Qingyan glanced at Chai Yiyun and then looked at Su Jia, "Didn't he just fall in with a thief and steal Yan'er's hairpin?"
"Who is that thief? How dare you come and steal things from my general's house. I really want to know who is so thoughtful about stealing things from my general's house!" Su Jia said and knocked hard. crutch.
Chai Yiyun looked at the hairpin on Su Qingwen's head, then glanced at Su Qingyan who looked aggrieved, and thought to herself: This is not good.
