[Comprehensive Classics] I crossed with the Daping layer

For his younger brother's dissatisfaction, Mycroft didn't care at all.To be honest, since Sherlock went out to study, the atmosphere of their brothers meeting has become more and more awkward.

"I don't know when my younger brother was able to take things from other people's house with such peace of mind." Mycroft glanced at the fat goose that had been disemboweled and died.

"Ha, does your neighbor know you're spying on her, Mycroft?"

"I'm not spying on her, Sherlock."

"Then don't tell me that you came here specifically to see me. How come the domestic affairs in the United States are not enough to keep you busy. Look at your hair, Mycroft, I believe that my mother will prepare for you soon Homemade hair tonic."

Hearing Sherlock's words, Mycroft seemed to have thought of something unspeakable, with a toothache expression on his face.

"Originally I wanted to convey an invitation, but now it seems unnecessary." Mycroft stood up, straightened his clothes, and said in a slow tone with a three-point reserve: "See you at Christmas, Myyoungerbrother."

Sherlock ignored Mycroft's words impatiently.

"By the way, Sherlock, I think you need to find another house after Christmas, since your landlord has had enough of you." Mycroft walked to the door and turned around with a smirk, then looked at the mess The room and the brother who has no image at all lying on the sofa.I feel like my tooth hurts more.

"I think you should be more worried about your own teeth and weight, since Miss Lydia Bennet's aesthetic has always been very popular."

Sherlock retorted speciously.

Christmas is the most important holiday in the West. On Christmas Eve, Betty gets up early in the morning and starts to work in the kitchen.When Qiao Qiao woke up, the whole first floor was filled with fragrance.Betty is taking Lily to work in the kitchen.

Betty's cooking talent is much better than Jojo's. In the past few years, she has learned almost all of Jojo's skills.And it is blue out of blue is better than blue.

This is probably the difference between true love and ordinary treatment.

Betty is obsessed with cooking, whether it is a meal or a dessert, she is very good at cakes.JoJo's cooking is also delicious, but it's always a bit off from Betty's cooking.

So Betty is in charge of her kitchen.

"What would the master and Miss Catherine want to have for lunch?"

"Just the croissant you just baked. We can't eat too much. We can't miss the big dinner tonight."

"That's right, dear Betty, you are really amazing, I mean your cooking skills are really amazing." Catherine praised sincerely.

"Thank you for your compliment, Miss Catherine, my master taught me my cooking skills." Betty was used to these compliments.The person she is most grateful for in her life is her master. Everything she has is bestowed by the master. If she hadn't met the master, she might not know where she was sold now.

Jojo is also used to the fact that Betty must call her master.If this can make her feel safe, the master will be the master.

"It's Betty herself who is extremely talented in cooking." Jojo smiled.

After eating a not-so-rich but delicious Chinese meal, Qiao Qiao continued her design career. Uncle Gardner used the blueprints she designed before to make them.As a result, all ten pieces of jewelry were sold at a good price.

It is said that the selling price has quadrupled the normal price.The excited Uncle Gardner has the idea of ​​hiring her as a designer.But in this era, going out to work, whether in a factory or as a tutor, is not something a lady should do.

Qiao Qiao also has no idea of ​​working. Firstly, she is not short of money, and secondly, she has no idea of ​​needing work to prove her worth.

The achievements she has achieved have made her not interested in these fame and fortune.

But Uncle Gardiner was very kind to her, and if she could help, she would be willing.So she designs some jewelry in her free time.I just had some inspiration a few days ago and wanted to design a set of jewelry with a deep forest theme.

A set of jewelry will be much more expensive, but when does London lack rich people?

In the evening, it was almost time, and Jojo and Catherine both dressed up.The temperature in the house is 28 degrees no matter which room you are in.So they can wear light skirts.

At seven o'clock in the evening, the guests arrived, Mycroft and Sherlock came together.

After the two parties greeted each other, they sat down and chatted together in the living room.

Qiao Qiao found that the clothes inside were very thin after the two brothers took off their coats, and they seemed to know that her house was warm.London's interior in winter is not like heating in modern northern China.After entering the door, the whole house is warm.

Although there is a fireplace, charcoal fire is not cheap, and the heat that the fireplace can provide is very limited.Basically only light a fireplace in a small room.

The warmth of her home simply cannot be provided by several fireplaces.She didn't know if the incense she lit could confuse the two Sherlock Holmes.

But she wasn't too worried. No matter what, the surname Holmes was still believable.Well, it's because she doesn't want to wrong herself, she doesn't resist the cold.I also hate wearing a lot of clothes, being too bloated and unable to move.

JoJo and Mycroft were talking about the current chaos in America, both affirming that war was inevitable.

"...Slaves are not the point. The point is the market. Economic relations like plantations are too backward and affect the development of the United States. The capitalists in the north will not leave a large market in the south untouched."

"Britain has overseas colonies to dump its own industrial products, but the United States does not, and now he does not have the strength to challenge Britain..."

Mycroft agreed, looking at the girl in front of him, the lights hit her face, her delicate facial features, graceful neck, delicate collarbone and delicate shoulders.

This woman is undoubtedly God's favorite, with both beauty and wisdom.

"I think you can talk about these politics and wars later, it's about time." Sherlock didn't eat lunch because of an experiment, he was hungry.And he was not at all interested in what they were talking about.

"Oh, of course. Then take a seat." As the host, Qiao Qiao can't let the guests go hungry.Facing Mycroft's apologetic eyes, Jojo smiled and said it didn't matter.

Food always puts people in a good mood, and a hearty Christmas meal brings everyone together.

Catherine and Sherlock had a very pleasant chat. Jojo listened and found that Sherlock was talking to Catherine about the case of the fat goose before. Catherine's eyes were full of admiration.

After a few glasses of red wine, the four of them became more harmonious. They talked about some interesting stories and jokes, and the atmosphere was relaxed and friendly.

After eating and drinking, Qiaoqiao saw that Catherine was a little drunk, so she quickly asked the maid to take her upstairs to rest.

Mycroft unbuttoned two of his shirts on rare occasions. It's too hot in here, he thought.

"What?" Mycroft looked at the box that appeared in front of him.

"Christmas present," Jojo said, holding out a present for their brother.

Both Mycroft and Sherlock were a little surprised.

"What are you looking at like this, open it and have a look, I think you will like it."

Sherlock looked displeased at Mycroft's gift, which was much larger than his gift wrapping.But still started to unpack things.

Of course, he also put half of his attention on McCoff.

"Hahahaha..." Mycroft laughed loudly when he saw the label on a large glass bottle.

"Hair restorer, Mycroft, I have to say this is really a thoughtful gift. Hahahaha..."

Mycroft didn't say anything, just looked at Jojo.

"Ahem...you know, the effect is absolutely guaranteed, I did it myself."

Mycroft raised his eyebrows, he naturally knew about this young lady's mysterious ability to dispense medicine.Well, you can take it back and try it, if it works, at least you won't be laughed at by Sherlock in the future.

At this time, he also became curious about Sherlock's gift.

"Veritaserum?" Mycroft's eyes were sharp in vain.

"I think Sherlock may need to use this potion at some point." It's just a small bottle that has been diluted, and the effect is average.

Mycroft: He needs it too.

Sherlock suddenly understood something, and immediately put away the small glass bottle.Then the two Holmes also took out their presents.

These two are really brothers, and they are all gems and jewelry.They should all look like antiques, and look like they are worth a lot of money.

Knowing that the two of them wanted to thank her for the supply of fresh vegetables, Qiao Qiao accepted them without any refusal.Although she has no shortage of gem jewelry.But no one thinks too much.

After Christmas, the relationship between Jojo and the two Sherlock Holmes can be regarded as friends.Although she doesn't have much contact with Sherlock, the detective's name can always be seen in the newspapers.

"Opera, The Magic Flute, Royal Opera House, Covent Garden?"

"Yes, I wonder if I have the honor to invite the two ladies to an opera." Mycroft bowed slightly.

"Of course, this is the performance of the most popular troupe in London. It is said that tickets are already hard to come by."

"Lydia, can I stay at home? You know my butterfly embroidery is almost there, I want to finish it as soon as possible, Mom's birthday is coming." Catherine looked at Jojo, then at Mai Kauf suddenly spoke.

Jojo was a little surprised that Catherine would refuse.But she would not force her, so she nodded in agreement.

In the evening, Qiao Qiao dressed according to the aristocratic girls of this era. Fortunately, there is no corset that displaces internal organs.The size of the pannier is also within the acceptable range.

Jojo's skirt basically does not have too many gemstones or pearl embellishments.She also doesn't like layers and layers of lace.The most used is complicated embroidery.Gold thread and silver embroidery are no less luxurious than precious stones and pearls.And it doesn't have that nouveau riche atmosphere.

"Sorry to keep you waiting, Mr. Holmes."

When McCoff turned around, he saw the girl slowly descending the stairs with her skirt in hand.Wearing a bright yellow silk dress, the flowing silk outlines the girl's tall and perfect figure.

His long brown hair was tied into a bun behind his head, and his delicate features were all beautiful.The fair and moist skin exudes a charming light under the light.The diamond jewelry on her hands, neck and ears made her even more dazzling.

"It's my pleasure," Mycroft heard himself say.

"Huh? Is there anything wrong with me?"

"No, it's beautiful."

"Thank you."

Hearing Mycroft's praise, Jojo was really pleased, this is not one of those playboys.It has always been the style of an old-fashioned gentleman in England.It's rare to hear him boast.
