C33 Birthday date
The scholar wrote a single word on the book before pausing for a moment. "What is it?" he asked impatiently.
"Twenty, twenty." Actually, he had wanted to report 20 from the beginning, but now that he wanted to report 3 more, he was afraid of incurring the manager's wrath, so he forced a smile and changed his words.
"25, pretend!" After the supervisor finished speaking, the servant behind him immediately filled up twenty-five bags and passed them to the person who was still hesitating.
At this time, the manager had already shouted out, "Next." He saw that the end of his dense list of numbers had been added another two steps.
Even the servants of the Luo Mansion possessed such heroism and magnanimity, as though they were all stating an indisputable fact: There was no lack of money!
I heard that the Luo Mansion had been specially given to the cooks of the Life Bag on that day, specially used to make life bags. Each of the piled up drawers were at least ten stories high, and they all filled up the entire courtyard!
After hearing that Luo Mansion would go to the major banks to exchange for copper coins for a few days, a few bank owners gathered together and calculated that the amount would be conservative by around sixty thousand silver taels!
I heard that on Old Madam Luo Mansion's birthday celebration, all of the nobles and officials were invited, even officials of the fourth rank and above were invited, including the various manors of the dukes!
In the blink of an eye, it was already morning. Those who had come for the prizes had all gained quite a bit and left in satisfaction. However, those who were already so busy that they lost their minds were now even more focused.
Although the invitation was for the lunchtime feast, who wouldn't be able to come early?
Three minutes into the morning, guests entered the venue one after another with gifts. The gatekeepers were divided into two groups, one to clean up the gifts while the other to lead the way for the guests.
Every detail clearly showed the upbringing and strength of this family. The servants of Luo Mansion had performed very well, and everything was done in an orderly manner.
At this moment, Luo Mingshi heard the bustling sounds coming from the front hall, she sighed, then put down the book in her hand and said, "Ancient man Yun, 'I can't hear anything from outside, my heart is only focused on the Book of Virtue'." However, I am unable to remain undisturbed by external forces. It seems that I will never be able to become the Saint. "
Wang Chun was so amused by Luo Mingshi that she started laughing, and said angrily: "The people in front should be here, Miss is still staying here to read, it would be rude if you were later."
"She's just a concubine, who cares. It's enough for mother and elder sister to go." Although these were the words that came out of his mouth, he still got up and prepared. When all the guests were gathered, the children and grandchildren of Luo Family would kowtow to the madame, kowtowing and offering her birthday presents.
At that time, she definitely couldn't not be here. Otherwise, she really wouldn't want to join in on the fun.
Wang Chun had heard Luo Mingshi's self-deprecating words, and advised: "Miss, don't say it like that, who would not care? The title of the number one beauty in the capital has already been released several years ago. Many people want to see the true face of the young miss. "
With the fact that the Luoan'S Time was a third stage official, and the Luo Family was a family of Jiangnan, and the Yue Clan was an illustrious family that had taken over the National Palace, who would be willing to offend them? As a result, they all rushed to do the work that was added to the luster of the flower. Then, there were some beautiful words that were spread around as they said:
Descendant daughter has talent, my daughter is beautiful.
Hearing Wang Chun's teasing, Luo Mingshi also suddenly thought of this sentence, and laughed. She could only sigh in her heart, saying that the people of the world loved to spread rumors, and added oil to the flowers, but she still said: "Why am I not a talented girl, and is Luo Mingxue smarter than me? "I refuse."
As he said that, he pretended to look at himself in the mirror.
Hearing that, Wang Chun immediately followed up: "Young miss has good intentions, I can't let you take both of them. Eldest Miss can't get her beauty, the only thing she can do is to accept 'talent', young miss must be more understanding." As she spoke, she also made an appearance to pacify the beauty who was proud of herself.
The master and the servant joked around for a while and only treated the rumor as a joke and didn't take it to heart.
When she turned to leave the screen, she saw that Luo Mingshi was wearing a bright red robe with a pleated skirt and a snow-white fox fur coat that protected her from the cold. A long hair like brocade with a red jade coral hairpin into a hairpin, the makeup on the face is a bit more clean, only open a red plum lips and let go.
No matter how beautiful Luo Mingshi was, she was only a little girl at the age of ten. After the passing of the year, she was only eleven and had yet to grow any more.
It was just that, those guests who were waiting to see the beauty would probably be disappointed. Luo Mingshi thought in this way, and a playful smile even appeared on her face.
Her cold demeanor and dignified demeanor gave off a kind of abstinence on her delicate face, causing people to be unable to restrain themselves from having endless feelings for her. At this moment, her beauty was no longer limited to just her small face, but also the presence and temperament of a virgin, as well as the indescribable feeling she gave others.
"Do you want to go straight to the front hall?" Just as she walked out of the door, Luo Mingshi asked loudly. She only heard that Wang Chun gave him an affirmative answer.
Luo Mingshi thought for a while, then laughed and replied: If that's the case, then let's go to the Plum Blossom Forest. Perhaps because she thought about the beautiful scenery of that place, Luo Mingshi's depressed mood improved a little.
It was just that the weather outside was too cold, I didn't feel anything from burning the brazier inside, Luo Mingshi couldn't help but rub her hands, but she was still chilled to the point that her teeth were trembling.
Wang Chun frowned and blamed herself, "This servant was careless, I did not expect it to be so cold outside," after thinking for a while, she decided that it would be too late to call the young miss back to change into a new set of makeup, so she said: "Young miss, please wait a moment, I will go back quickly to get a stove to bring the young miss out."
However, Luo Mingshi laughed, "It's about to snow, how can I blame you?" She rubbed her fingers again, but refused. "No worries, I can handle it."
Wang Chun said anxiously, "Miss, if you are frozen like this, I am afraid you will lose your manners."
"Then you can go," he said, and laughed. "It's just a little troublesome."
Seeing that Luo Mingshi had agreed, Wang Chun heaved a sigh of relief in her heart. "Then, miss, wait for me.
Luo Mingshi nodded and said: "En, I will wait for you at the Plum Blossom Forest in front."
Luo Mingshi left Wang Chun and slowly walked forward alone, as if she was taking a stroll in a courtyard.
Looking up, he saw a person standing in the Plum Blossom Forest.
As Luo Mingshi walked, watched and felt the bone-piercing cold wind, and felt the blossoming of the red plum blossom in this kind of severe cold weather, it was an imposing aura that seemed to want to dye the world red. Red plums appeared one after another in her eyes, making him feel dizzy, as if each plum was more beautiful than the last, as if she could not see enough of the most beautiful one.
The deeper they went, the more the distracting thoughts in Luo Mingshi's heart became. She unconsciously slowed down her footsteps a little.
Looking up, he saw a person standing in the Plum Blossom Forest.
He only saw that person standing quietly with his back facing Luo Mingshi, and looking up slightly, as if he was also admiring the scenery. He saw snow-white satin, which only added to his silky hair that was as smooth as silk, tied together with a white ribbon. With his hands behind his back, he was playing with a piece of white jade made from sheep fat, but he did not know that his slender fingers were even prettier than jade.
He stood there motionlessly, as if he wanted to merge with the scene before him.
