A world of glory

Lanyue saw that Master Zhou had gone, Fang smiled and said: "After all, it is someone close to Master Hou, and such a big mistake can be made up with in a few words." Now, whenever he shows up, the young master must give him face." Yi Zhu smiled and asked the maids to remove the teacups and other things. "I saw that there are a few rare items on this list. What are the embroidered spring swallows, lotus, dragonfly hanging screens, and Zhangrong fishing and firewood plowing and reading screens, they are extremely exquisite and rare objects." Lanyue said with a smile. "You girl, you think those gold and jade things are vulgar, but don't these embroidered fabrics look elegant?" Qin Yi teased, "If that's the case, I should let you stay in the small warehouse for a few days. They are all Gu embroidery, Su embroidery, Shu embroidery and Guang embroidery, wouldn't it be more satisfying." "Is it an elegant thing? You will know if you take it out and look at it, so why bother me, a little maid?" Lanyue smiled. road. "It's good to order here, and save sister Peiyu from being busy again?" Yi Zhu said with a smile.Qin Yi nodded and said with a smile: "It's good to take it out and have a look, I will also be a housekeeper today."

Talking and laughing, four second-class maidservants came in and opened the box, took out the brocade box for Qin Yi to have a look at, and let Yizhu compare with the list one by one. "Ten pieces of heavenly fragrance silk of various colors, twenty pieces of gold-woven silk, twenty pieces of decorated silk, six pieces of cloud satin, ten pieces of plain wrought, ten pieces each of brocade wrought and colored satin." Yizhu said after counting two boxes. "This box is made of silk and satin, there is nothing wrong with it." Qin Yi nodded with a smile, and another maid presented another brocade box: "One white jade belt with peony peacock, two belts with jasper and bamboo knots, four belts with colorful clouds, cranes and water jade, and gold belts." Two belts inlaid with crystal, six belts inlaid with gold and agate, two rings of gold-painted hibiscus gemstones, and four rings of jade goose pierced with lotus." Yizhu ticked off one by one.Qin Yi frowned slightly, but looked a little tired.Lanyue said with a smile: "Master, I feel bored. You might as well go to sleep for a while. It's not too late to get up again when you're waiting for dinner." "We'll talk about it after Yizhu finishes ordering." Qin Yi smiled.

Seeing that Yizhu had finished ordering the third box, he smiled and said to Qin Yi: "In this box, apart from the rings, there are two pearl curtains, a jade chess piece, six ancient inkstones, and six ink-cut calligraphy posts. There are still eight scrolls." Qin Yi said with a smile: "It's a pity that the piano is missing, otherwise the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting would be complete." "Why not?" Peiyu opened the curtain and entered the room, and said with a smile: "The ones sent earlier There are four good violins in the box. I can’t tell the difference between the gold emblem crystal foot piano and the gold emblem jade broken grain piano, but I think it’s okay by looking at the style.” But I never thought it would be full of gold and jade." Qin Yi said with a smile, "It seems that my father will not make a far-reaching tune when he returns to Beijing this time."

"I just heard from the maid in the madam's courtyard that Lord Hou has gone to the palace to report on his duties." Peiyu saw that the incense in the room had faded a little, so she walked to the hollowed-out double-crane red copper smoker, took off the cover, and Dial it with a gold pick, and put the lid back on.She walked up to Yi Zhu and asked with a smile: "Is it finished?" Yi Zhu raised his head and smiled and said, "How many more." Then she turned to Qin Yi and said with a smile, "There are some playthings in this box. It took some thought." Qin Yi looked at the contents of the box carefully, and said with a smile: "Take out the hanging screen and interstitial screen that Lanyue said just now, together with the ivory carving study room, and put the rest away." The maids According to the words, he took out the things, hung up the hanging screen, put the plug-in screen on the shelf, and put the study room on Qin Yi's desk, and tidied up the replaced hanging screen objects. It also takes a lot of time.After finishing this work, Yizhu also finished ordering the items, and seeing that there were no mistakes, he handed the list to Peiyu.Peiyu led her maid to put the box into the warehouse, and Lanyue ordered her to prepare water, and waited for Qin Yi to take a bath and change clothes, and then waited for Qin Yi to fall asleep before closing the door and going out.As soon as he went out, some maidservants from Xifu brought some fresh fruits, so Lanyue replied for Qin Yi.

Under the eaves hung four colored glaze palace lanterns. Under the soft light, four servant girls were serving Feixue to wash and wash. An older maid combed Feixue's hair with a white jade openwork curly moth comb. Comb the swallowtail bun.Na Qiuhong came forward with a black jade engraved gold box for Feixue to choose.Feixue looked at it and asked, "Where is the jewelry sent by my father today?" Another big maid, Chun He, came forward with a black lacquer inlaid gold peony box and said, "This box is the one ordered by Lord Hou. Jewelry delivered. There are four boxes of pearls and gemstones and six boxes of utensils, all of which have been counted." Feixue looked at the neatly sorted pearl hairpins in the box, selected a few tourmaline flower pearls, A branch of gold inlaid jade hibiscus and coral steps.The maid put them on for Fei Xue one by one, and Fei Xue chose another pair of pearl emerald earrings to wear.Qiong Xiao, the maid who combed Feixue's hair, held a Pisces mirror and took a picture behind Feixue. Feixue looked at the mirror in the dressing table and said with a smile: "It's done." Qing Yun and Liu Shang was busy tidying up the dressing box, when a beautiful maid in a fragrant jacket hurried into the room.Feixue saw that maid came in, smiled and said to them: "I see it's not too early, you go down and ask if father is back?" Xue said: "My maidservant went to Brother Wen's to have a look, and Lord Hou also sent six boxes over, just like the two young ladies, Aunt Wang's had a few more boxes of silk and satin. Only the eldest son and Xian Brother, those are ten boxes. Master Zhou went to Jingsongyuan because of this matter." Feixue smiled and said: "Big brother is fine, he is not short of these boxes. Brother Wen That's fine, I don't like to take care of it, but who let there be such a villain in this mansion, who is used to praising the high and trampling the low, and it's not so boring." Just as he was talking, a maid was outside the door According to the report, Master Hou came back from the palace, the old matriarch prepared a banquet and invited the young masters and ladies over.

Qin Yi fell into a dream in a trance, as if he had returned to his childhood, looking at the peach blossoms blooming in the yard, and suddenly a gust of wind blew by, and the fallen flowers were all over the ground.It also seems to be under the pine tree, playing the piano and singing, seeing the snow-covered mountains in the distance, and listening to the mountain wind whizzing by.Unable to distinguish between dreams and reality, Qin Yi stretched out his hand to bring back the lost time, those childhood playmates who were laughing and playing; he called desperately, but only heard the long echo between the pines, the waves and the bamboo sea, the mountain wind, the fog and the rain. Can't get entangled. "Idiot, idiot..." A clear voice gradually faded away, returning to nothingness.

"My lord, wake up." Qin Yi suddenly woke up from his dream, opened his eyes, and saw Lanyue Zhangdeng calling softly beside him.He touched his forehead unconsciously, and found that it was cold and slightly sweating.It turned out to be a dream.It must have been too much work recently and influenced by those gods and gods to have these weird nightmares.Qin Yi calmed down, and asked, "What time is it?" "If you go back to Young Master, it's a quarter of an hour. The old lady just sent someone to call you over, so I'll go back first, and I will go when I say it will be later." Waiting on the moon While Qin Yi was changing his clothes, three or four servant girls came into the room with carved silver basins, towels, and mirrors.

Qin Yi was sitting on the couch, and the maid holding the carved silver basin came up to him and half-kneeled on the ground, and the other maids also knelt and knelt beside them holding scarves, mirrors and jade hairpins.Yizhu held a glass and gold plate with banana leaf pattern, on which was a glass and gold banana leaf pattern tureen and a glass and gold banana leaf pattern spoon, lifted the curtain and entered the room.Seeing Qin Yi washing up, she put down the plate aside, hurriedly stepped forward to roll up Qin Yi's sleeves, took a big white towel, and covered Qin Yi's skirt.Qin Yi stretched his hand into the silver basin, and asked with a smile: "How did you find this glass plate?" Yi Zhu said with a smile: "The second wife asked someone to send back the glass screen. Putting the screen into the warehouse, I saw two boxes of glassware in the corner. Just in time for someone in the small kitchen to say that a set of white jade and agate utensils had broken a plate, so I took out a set and replaced it." Yi Zhu asked with a smile: "Is there something wrong, is that strange?"

"It's nothing, this glass plate was sent by my uncle. Later I wanted to find it and use it, but I didn't know where to put it." Qin Yi cleaned his hands with balm and said with a smile, "It's good to find it now, this thing It's expensive, but it's also made by firing, so it might be all over the street someday." "My lord, you're joking! It's not easy to make colored glaze, and it's often only a few pieces are produced after ten kilns are fired. It's rare, how can it fill the streets All of them? Not to mention, even this porcelain has to be divided into official kilns and private kilns. No matter how good the wares fired in the private kilns are, they are not as good as the porcelain made in the official kilns." Lanyue said with a smile, holding a Ji Qing The glazed landscape porcelain box is presented.Qin Yi took the box, opened it, took some ointment with a wooden toothbrush, rinsed his mouth, and said with a smile: "That's true, even if colored glaze is as common as porcelain in the future, I'm afraid it will be unavoidable. point."

While talking and joking, Qin Yi had finished grooming, Yizhu hurriedly stepped forward to tie his hair, and took a careful look at it with a target mirror. He felt that there was nothing wrong, so he nodded slightly.Lanyue handed Qin Yi a green woven golden cloud goose down jacket to change into, and a green woven gold peacock satin robe for Qin Yi to change into.Yizhu looked at it, and asked with a smile: "How about adding another piece of fox white fur felt?" Qin Yi said with a smile: "Why is it so cumbersome, I remember there are still a few fire silkworm cotton clothes in the cabinet, you take one Come out with a cloak, and I will wear it." "Young master, you have changed your temper. You thought it was too extravagant to take it out in the past, but you are willing to change it today." Standing in the closet, he took out a snow-blue cloak embroidered with patterns of begonias, aquatic plants, and goldfish, and joked with a smile.
