I pointed at the green dress beneath the light pink dress and said, "Let's do this!"

Green Queen pursed her lips and smiled.

I glared at her and rebuked her, "You silly girl, what are you laughing about?"

"Although this red color is a joyous occasion, it is still the birthday of the old ancestor after all. It won't be good to offend her." This ivory white bean green although dignified, but after all is a festive day, not easy to wear too clean. Or this green dress with pink underside, lively but not too conspicuous. "

You must have learned the way I usually talk!

I smiled and continued, "This set of pink and green clothes is neither too simple nor too gorgeous. At that time, when all the young mistresses come to be their guests, I will have to be the host and entertain them.

After saying this, both master and servant began laughing.

When Lan Zhi saw that I had finished talking to Lu Kui, she left with her maidservants. Coincidentally, they bumped into Lan Ling outside the courtyard. The two of them exchanged a few words in a low voice, and Lan Li pushed aside the curtain covering the door and entered.

"Miss, I'm going home. I should give the key to Miss's room to the other maidservants." With that said, Lu Kui untied a bunch of keys tied with a red string from his waist and respectfully placed them on the table on the brick bed.

I reached for the key. There were five or six of them, but they were heavy.

"Since that's the case, let Lan Lingyun take care of it for you first!" Lan Li took the key with both hands and hung it on her waist under her coat, imitating the look of the green bandit.

I said to Lan Lingyun with a smile, "This is the life and blood of our Lu Kui! You have to take care of it for her. "

Lan Li was a bit embarrassed and replied seriously, "Rest assured elder sister! I have the key! "

Seeing how she answered with such a cute and innocent voice, but with an unswerving determination on her face, the green bandit could not help but smile and bend his waist. He pointed at her and said, "You silly goose!"

Lan Yi scratched her head in embarrassment, appearing more and more foolish.

He hung his ironed clothes on a shelf, put his jewelry in a sandalwood box, closed the door, and let me rest. He lay down on the kang to keep watch for me.

There was a rustling in the darkness, the rustling of clothes and the rustling of bedding.

Speaking of which, this is the first time I've really left the matter up to Lu Kui.

It's not that I don't believe in the ability of the Green Bastard to do things, but I often feel that she won't be able to follow me in the future, so why spend that time to nurture her.

But then so many things happened that I had to activate her.

Yet, there was nothing she couldn't do well!

I have often lamented in my heart that it would have been like a tiger's wings for me if I had been able to keep him by my side all this time. But once I had relied on her, she suddenly wanted to leave, it was like cutting off my own arm for me!

Outside, the moonlight shone down on a little deer embroidered on the tent in front of my bed. It seemed to be running in the moonlight.

Only the ticking of the outer clock announced the passage of time, and there was no sound of regular breathing.

"Are you willing to follow me?" My soft voice was distinct in the silent night.

It was quiet outside.

I smiled. Maybe I was asleep, maybe I didn't want to.

This is for the best, and neither of us will be embarrassed.

Just as I was about to turn around and go to sleep, I heard the voice of the Green Bandits from outside.

"This servant has never had a choice."

Lu Kuo used to be a third-class maid in my mother's room. My mother saw that she was very handsome, and the larger she got, the more she found an excuse to send her to my courtyard.

"Then I'll give you a choice now." I replied with a smile.

After a while, a gentle voice came from the tent.

"This servant is willing."

I curled my lips, and my heavy heart settled down.

There are so many opportunities to ask this question, but I would rather watch them pass in front of me. It's just because I'm afraid of a negative answer!

"Miss! Miss! It's time to wake up! " The green bandit bent over the bed, his eyes a little more spirited than before.

I rubbed my eyes with my hands. It wasn't yet fully dawn, so I was a little confused.

The green robber took the jacket and draped it over my shoulders, while he smiled and said, "You forgot! It's the old lady's birthday today, so you should go and kowtow as soon as possible! "

I nodded like a chick pecking rice. "I remember! I remember! "

Green Cock bent down and helped me into my shoes, then helped me to my feet. Lan Li then brought the maidservants in, lighting lamps and carrying water.

Lan Ling followed me into the screen, where the green bandit reached for the copper bowl in the maid's hand.

"Elder sister's hands aren't good, let me do it!" Lan Zhi put down the handkerchief in her hand and took a step forward to catch the copper basin.

After entering the screen, I instructed Lan Ling, "Her hand is not ready yet! After all, the medicine outside is not as good as the ones in our house.

"Don't worry, Miss." Lan Ya nodded in agreement. While buttoning the jade buttons on my jacket, she smiled and said, "I've long cleaned it up for big sister!"

I nodded and patted the back of Lan Li's hand. "I am the most relieved of all the things you've done!"

Lan Qing pursed her lips into a smile. "What Miss said makes sense!"

Out of the screen, Green Cock wrapped a large towel around me, washed my face, and sat in front of the mirror.

Green Bull stood behind me and combed my hair. I peered at the maidservants behind me in the mirror.

The green bandit wore a pair of spiral bun on his head and a plain silver hairpin on one side. He wore an apricot-colored flower-sprinkled robe with a white silk dress on the other side. "She was standing beside her, holding a jewel box in her hand, with her head tied with a red string, and with a pair of little gold lilac earrings on her ears. She was wearing an orange-red dress with a white silk dress like the one Green Cock wore, and her red embroidered shoes were faintly visible as she walked.

Both of the maidservants were well aware of the accident and had specially chosen bright colors and extravagant styles of clothes to reflect their grandmother's birthday celebration.

I piled my hair on my head and combed it into a high bun. I put on the hood that Green Bun had prepared for me. I got up and looked at myself in the mirror. I was very satisfied.

When he turned around, he saw Lan Zhi wearing a thick pink cotton sweater and a ginger dress. Although the dress was very bright, it was clearly a regular dress.

I was secretly surprised. Did this servant girl choose to wear such clothes because she knew that she couldn't compare to the position that I held in my heart as Green Bandage and Lan Li?

I stood in front of the mahogany cabinet and looked at Lan Zhi with a smile. "Green Cock, go and get what Gong's elder sister made for Grandmother," I said. "

"Here!" "You remember?" "Yes," I say. "

Lan Zhi smiled and said softly, "Miss, please leave quickly!" If he was any later, it would be too late! "

I thought to myself, this maid is really strange. Different!

A young lady at this age coincidentally had the birthday of the most respected person in the family. Anyone who didn't want to go up to the front and ask for a happy birthday would most likely send something over to express their feelings, even if they had some work to do and no time to do it.

This maidservant was neither arrogant nor impatient. She seemed to be content with the current situation!

I carefully looked at the maidservant standing in front of me. The light in her eyes was like a calm river.

Apparently, he understood what I meant.

"In that case, I'll leave the yard to you!" I smiled. I thought to myself, I'm afraid this maid is more experienced than the Green Bandits.

"Yes." Lan Zhi responded with a smile. She then brought the maidservants and their mothers to send the three of us to the entrance of the courtyard.

When they arrived at Grandmother's courtyard, everyone was brimming with joy. From the mothers to the maidservants, they were all wearing bright colored clothes. Each and every one of them had a smile on their faces, giving off a happy feeling as if it was the new year.

Along the way, the young maidservants all smiled and bent their knees as they greeted him, "Young Miss!"

I smiled and nodded at them, and behind me were the green cuckoo and the orchid tree, scattering the bounty to the little maidservants, filling the yard with laughter and jubilation.

After passing through the hall and arriving at the entrance of Grandmother's main house, there stood a tall, curvy beauty with a bright red face with a hundred years of age. She wore a red, passion-patterned vest, smiling as she bowed and said, "Miss, you have come! The Old Ancestor is waiting for you inside! "

"Thank you, sister!" Smiling, I took her hand and thanked her, stuffing a small four-point naked girl into it.

Hong Chang accepted it with a smile, and helped me open the curtain myself. Lu Kui and Lan Ling laughed and called out: "Big Sister Hong Chang!" He followed me through the door.

Grandmother's tent was changed into a rose-colored cloth embroidered with a red bat, the seat cushion was changed into a bright red and the tablecloth cover was replaced with a red-colored peach embroidery. A teapot, a censer, was made of either pink clay gold or painted red gold.

On her head was a small gold crown of pure gold and rubies, from which the lumps of roseate hung down on either side of her face, making a rustling sound as they moved, and in her ears were a pair of ruby earrings with a crimson gold base that glittered with changing light. She wore a jacket with gold teeth and a dark blue dress with eight pieces of gold embroidered on it. The two pieces that hung in front of her legs were for the birthday of Ma Shu and the Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea. He had two or three purses on his waist, both of which were exquisite embroidery with gold and silver inlaid on them. Grandmother's feet were covered with a pair of emerald shoes embroidered with oriental beads and navy blue embroidered with peach brocade, reflecting the sun's resplendent rays.

Mama Du was half-kneeling by her feet, laughing and talking to her grandmother while holding up the mirror for her to look at.

"Miss, you're here!" Mama Du spotted me first and greeted me with a smile.

"Grandmother." I curtsied, and immediately a maidservant came over with a big red cushion and placed it on the carpet right in front of Grandmother's feet.

I hastily went over to kneel on top and kowtowed as I said, "Grandmother's daughter congratulates Grandmother on her birthday. I wish Grandmother a long life and happiness and well-being. " The two maidservants hurriedly followed behind me and bowed.

"This little thing was personally made by my grandson and daughter. I congratulate Grandmother on her birthday." I handed over the bundle in my hands, and also a green Doroni package. I smiled and said, "Grandmother thanks granddaughter for the reward. This is something that mother Gong's second wife asked her grandson to bring in."

Mama Du set the mirror down on the counter, reached out to help me up, and took the two bags from my hands to deliver to Grandmother.

Hong Chang took the opportunity to support the two maidservants behind me and accepted the bags from Lan Li and Lu Kui. Grandmother waved her hand, and Hong Chang smiled and kept the things in the big cabinet.

"Come sit across from me!" Grandmother smiled and pointed to the empty seat opposite the kang. I did as I was told, and the two maidservants came to stand behind me.

Grandmother looked at Gong's daughter-in-law's bundle, left it on the side of the brick bed, and opened my bag.

She took out the forehead smears and held them up to her head.

"It'll mess up your hair!" I stopped him.

Grandmother wiped the embroidery on her forehead and said with a regretful smile, "It's too bad that I'm wearing this golden crown, so they won't be able to see my grandson's delicate hands."

I covered my mouth as I smiled and said, "Then we'll agree to wear it next year!"

"Aren't your cooking skills even better next year? Why aren't you making me a new one? " Grandmother laughed and teased me, and we laughed at each other.

"Look at my outfit today, isn't it good?" Grandmother pulled on my clothes, and I carefully looked up and down my grandmother's dress.

Her face was fine and her lips were rosy. Grandmother had put on makeup.

Through the bright morning sunlight, I could see the blue of my grandmother's forehead.

So the reason why my grandmother wore this crown was to cover the wound on her forehead.

I felt a dull pain in my heart.
