"Miss, you're awake!" Lu Kou rubbed his eyes on his feet and saw that I was already sitting on the kang. He rolled over and grabbed a piece of clothing from the side in a fluster.

"Don't worry!" "Don't worry about it!" I hastily waved my hands at her, signalling for her not to worry. "It's because I woke up early today."

Even though I said so, the green bandit did not dare to slow his movements. He swiftly tied the towel around his waist, rolled up his arms and legs, and came to my side to serve.

He called out to the window several times, but none of the maidservants who had been waiting for their toiletries came in. Lu Kou could not help but feel anxious. With a flushed face, he whispered, "Maybe Lan Li woke up too late."

Looking at her flustered hands and feet, at this moment, the double bun on either side of her head is raised and lowered, while her delicate eyebrows are pinched, I couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"It's not that they're late, it's that you called them too early!"

I pointed to the outer clock.

Lu Kui immediately understood.

Since it wasn't the time to wake up, there would naturally be no maidservants waiting in the courtyard.

"Go back and wash up!" I smiled at her.

Although these maids were resting on the kang in my room, they didn't leave their dowry with me. They all woke up an hour earlier than me and went back to their own rooms to wash up.

"How can that be!" "Since Miss is already awake, I should naturally serve her in front of you!"

I opened the small drawer on the table and took out a pair of water chestnut glasses. "Look at your disheveled appearance!" I said to her with a smile.

Green Cock's face was like a fresh red cloth.

"You are such a wonderful person, just that you are too cautious!" I smiled as I put away the mirror. "There will be a long period of time in the future. Whether you are loyal or not is not up to you on the surface."

There was shock on the face of the Green Widow, and its eyes lit up when it looked at me.

I nodded slightly at her.

The green bandit smiled and left.

The maidservants who came to help with the washing up were a quarter of an hour earlier than usual. All of them had smiles on their faces and were brimming with joy. In particular, the leader of the bandits, who was holding a jewellery box, had an exceptionally pleasing expression. Lan Lingyun, who was helping me change my clothes by entering the room, pulled on my sleeve and asked me if I had given anything good to the robber.

Because it was still early, when he arrived at Grandmother's place, he was afraid that Grandmother had not finished her washing. He could not help but make Grandmother's place miserable, so he decided to let Lan Lingyun spread out some bright paper and draw some flowers.

When we arrived at the courtyard, breakfast was already on the table. Grandmother was holding a bowl of porridge as she asked me why I was late. After listening to me draw a flower, she smiled and said to Mother Du, "Look! My family already has a painting, but I don't see any strange patterns on the handkerchief on my clothes or shoes, so it was a good deal for me. You don't have to be so polite. Just go and mess with her tomorrow, and then we'll make clothes for her! "

Grandmother knew I was going to paint flowers, so she didn't leave me to gossip after lunch. She smiled and hurried me back. "Just use flowers to thank me!"

In the evening, Lin always had more than twenty flowers, beautiful Jade hairpin flowers, magnificent peonies, small and cute hydrangea flowers, charming and bright rose flowers, gentle and gentle crabapple flowers, profound flowers …

I stretched lazily and instructed the maidservant who was packing up my things, "Give the Jade hairpin flower, hydrangea flower and crabapple flower to Eldest Miss Jiang, and the rose flower, pomegranate flower and peony flower to Miss Wen for her and her family tomorrow. "Put the rest away. I'll take it myself later."

"Wouldn't it be nice to give each of you a little bit?" Lan Li, who was clearing up the mess, looked up at me in confusion.

I was about to tell her in detail, but then I squinted and saw that Green Cock was smiling with his head down.

"Go ask your good sister!"

The green bandit glanced at me, hesitating a little, but hiding it in his eyes.

I smiled and nodded at her.

Even if she was wrong, as long as it wasn't ridiculous, I would just go down the slope.

"I don't know if I'm right."

Although I encourage the Green Bandits to be a bit bolder and more at ease, there are some people who have a character that goes deep into their bones and can't change completely in a day and a night. It was exactly in accordance with the saying of the ancients, "Three feet of ice is not the same as one day's cold."

"Jade hairpin flowers, hydrangea flowers, crabapple flowers are all pure white and tender yellow, small and gentle flowers. Miss Jiang comes from a government family, and she wants to marry a scholar family in Jiangnan. However, the one Miss Wen wanted to marry was the Su Family's son who was in the business of weaving in the capital. This kind of family liked festivals, splendor, the bright and beautiful moon, many pomegranates, and rich and powerful peonies. In this way, the two young misses would not feel awkward because they could not use the flower that the young miss had sent to them, nor would they feel that misusing the flower would leave a bad impression of the young miss' good intentions, which would be either too flamboyant or too dull, but would instead cause the young miss's good intentions to go down the drain. "

The more I said, the more happy I felt. When I finished, the joy overflowed from my face.

He had thought that this girl was only a bit smart. He didn't expect her to be someone who was very familiar with the way things were going.

When I was her age, all I thought about was how I had gained Xuelang's favor. I had never considered the door to these relationships.

On the other hand, although Lan Li was more quick-witted than the others, she did not have the talent to receive others.

The two maidservants, Spring Orchid Autumn Flowers, each with their own destiny, have already become my right-hand man.

After sending off the flowers, I took a break. Every day, I would just accompany my grandmother and listen to Mama Du talk about the arrangements for the marriage between red lines and double embroidery. People started to feel a little lazy. Grandmother laughed at me, "If you don't want a post, call the girls over to our house to play!" When I thought about the Xue sisters' individual thoughts, and then about the Xu sisters' individual actions, I couldn't help but feel bored. I only said that it was rare to rest, so Grandmother didn't want to go any further, so I left her to me.

On the 28th Miss Jiang sent me two boxes of preserves and two jars of pickles from her mother. When I saw the sign on it, I laughed. The small bamboo basket used to store the candied fruit was the one that only existed at the corner of Beijing's Fourth Lane. The red paper, sprinkled with gold, on top of the saucepan, was used only for the first family of six. The mother who came to deliver the gift was also a charming person. She smiled as she bent her knees and talked about how she missed me and wanted me to go to the Jiang family as a guest. I ordered the maidservants to bring a box of candied fruits and a jar of pickled vegetables before accompanying the mother of the Jiang family to Grandmother's place. Grandmother immediately agreed and smiled.

When the mother went out, my grandmother sighed at me with a smile. "The Jiang family has chosen a good helper for their big girl."

As I put a silk silk quilt on my grandmother's knee, I smiled. "With such a mother who understands the ways of the world and knows the ways of the people by her side, even if she's young, she can still be of some help."

"Why do you sound so old!" My grandmother smiled and glared at me, but there was no anger or suspicion in her expression.

"Take a look!" In my heart, I knew that my grandmother was just joking. I turned around to look at Mother Du who was standing by the side and complained, "It's really hard to serve her. I can't do it, but I can't do it back!"

"This servant also thinks that our Old Ancestor is right." Unconventional, Mother Du didn't follow my words to tease me, "For someone as stable and mature as our Miss, I think she's in the top ten. No, not even one out of a hundred can come out."

"You old thing." Grandmother scolded Mother Du with a smile on her face. "I know that I won't offend anyone!"

The next day, Miss Wen's return gift also arrived.

Unlike the Jiang family, Miss Wen had packed a whole box in return, and was led in by a mother steward and two women who were rough enough to carry a carrying pole. That mother had a somewhat neither servile nor overbearing manner. She passed over a piece of Xue Tao's note and repeated with a smile that was not a smile the words of the young miss Wen and the matter of inviting me to be a guest.

I smiled and sized up the mother. I ordered Lan Li to accompany the two old wives to the side room for tea and snacks. From the courtyard, I found two mothers to carry a box with them as they escorted the mother manager of the Wen family back to her grandmother. When her grandmother heard Miss Wen's invitation, she also smiled in response. No matter how one looked at it, that smile seemed somewhat estranged.

The Wen Family's mother didn't seem to see this, as she saluted as if nothing had happened and left.

After the incident, Grandmother could not help but sigh at Madame Wen's intelligence. How could she choose such a muddle-headed mother for Miss Wen? When the mistress had something to do, she could not help, but when there was nothing to do, something would happen.

I could not answer my grandmother's question, so I had to stutter. My grandmother could only smile and sigh as she told my mother to open a box for me to see the Wen family's gifts.

The entire box was filled to the brim with silk and silk. Not even one of his hands could fit inside. Grandmother couldn't help but tease me, "I didn't expect you to be so popular. It was all thanks to the Wen family for not having a son!"

I smiled back at my grandmother and talked about my visit to the Wen family on the eighth of June.

"I won't accompany you. That day, that kid, Hong Wen, went out. In the morning, he came to kowtow to me."

"Aiya!" I slapped my forehead. "How could I have forgotten about that!"

"How about I write a letter to Sister Wen and change the date!"

"She is someone who wants to go out of the sect. You can do as she pleases!" Grandmother pointed to the teapot on the table, and I hurried to pour Grandmother a cup of tea.

"Even if the maidservants in your room were to leave the pavilion, they wouldn't kowtow in front of me!"

"That's the truth!" When my grandmother heard that I wasn't polite, a faint smile appeared on her face. "You just need to sit in my car and go."

I didn't want to transfer through my mother, so I borrowed my grandmother's carriage.

"That's exactly what I was thinking!" I smiled and held out my hand to my grandmother.

"In the same place!" Grandmother reached out and gave my palm a light pat.

I gleefully took the cards and instructed Lu Kou to take them to the storeroom to deal with her mother. After Lu Kou returned the cards and personally put the cards back into the case, the matter of going to the Wen family to visit was settled.
