Chapter 29

Old lady Ji was sitting on the mat with a smelly face. In front of her was a square table of yellow pear wood. Facing the square table, Ji Mingxiu was kneeling in a white robe with crescent moon.

Ji Mingxiu called her grandmother softly.

Mrs. Ji snorted: "don't call me! I'm not your grandmother! I don't have a grandson like you! Say go, go, stay at home all year! In your heart, where is my grandmother? "

Ji Mingxiu lowered her eyes slightly and said: "let Grandma worry, it's not Mingxiu. Grandma beat Mingxiu to relieve Qi?"

Old lady Ji turned her head and glared at him: "you don't think I dare, do you?"

Ji Mingxiu slowly stood up, holding the ruler in both hands, bypassed Fang Ji and knelt down beside old lady Ji: "grandma."

"You..." Looking at the long and cold ruler, Mrs. Ji choked speechless.

"Old lady," said Rong's mother, "isn't the young master back? If you have something to say to the young master, don't do it. Look at the young master, he is thinner than before. "

Looking at Ji Mingxiu, Mrs. Ji found that his Qingjun's face had indeed lost a lot of weight. She felt a twinge of heartache, but it was not good. So she forgave him and said: "tell me, where has the wild been this year?"

"Just calm down and understand something." Ji Mingxiu said.

Mrs. Ji snorted coldly: "what do you understand? Can't you understand at home? Can I get a message? "

Ji Mingxiu doesn't speak any more. If he doesn't understand at home, there are reasons why he can't understand at home.

Mrs. Ji knows his temperament and doesn't like to make his affairs known everywhere. This kind of running away is not once or twice. He leaves the capital once every other period of time. No one can find him. But in the past, he came back in a month or two, but this time he has gone for a whole year. How can she not be worried?

"Come here!" She was very angry.

Ji Mingxiu moved a few steps in front of her. She raised her hand and straightened his skirt: "don't do this again, you know?"

Ji Mingxiu nodded slightly: "I know."

The old lady looks better.

Ji Mingxiu took out a delicate peach wood brocade box from the wide sleeve and handed it to Mrs. Ji. Mrs. Ji opened it and saw that it was a set of gold inlaid jade hairpins with butterflies in love with flowers. There were three butterfly hairpins and two Qionghua hairpins. The color was bright but not gaudy, with a kind of luxurious and introverted temperament.

"This is Antique? " Asked the old lady in surprise.

Ji Mingxiu nodded: "it's the twelve hairpins of Dielianhua made by Shizong of the former dynasty for the Ming imperial concubine."

The old lady's eyes began to shine green: "the twelve hairpins have been lost for a long time. The eldest princess only got two. Where did you find five?"

Ji Mingxiu's lips raised a shallow radian: "rhinoceros town."

I'm afraid the shopkeeper doesn't know it's the twelve hairpins of Princess Ming? I know I won't sell it to you. "

Dafangzhai really didn't know that it was Princess Ming's twelve hairpins. I only heard that it was a set of antiques. There should have been twelve hairpins, but I didn't know it was such a valuable antique. At the beginning, the man stole it and sold it to dafangzhai in a hurry. Dafangzhai thought it was worthless and only called 800 Liang, but Qiao Wei gave it back to 650 Liang.

Although Ji Mingxiu didn't know the origin of the hairpin, he could guess that the road was not right, and the shop owner didn't know the goods, so he sold it at a low price. You should know that the two hairpins in the hands of the princess cost 3000 taels of silver.

The woman worried that the counter-offer was not enough and asked him whether it was a real antique.

Ji Mingxiu suddenly laughed.

The old lady was trying on her hairpin. Just as she saw her grandson laughing in the bronze mirror, she thought she was dazzled for many years. Since her daughter-in-law's accident, the grandson had never laughed again. She was just about to ask what Mingxiu was laughing at when a maid's report came from the door: "old lady, young master, Miss Qiao is here."

Ji Mingxiu's smile faded.

As soon as the old lady's eyes brightened, she said happily, "is Xi'er coming? Tell her to come in

Accompanied by her maid, Qiao Yuxi entered the room with a curtain. She was wearing a pink skirt and a white rabbit hair jacket. Her skirt was buckled with pink crystal. It was shining with the pink peach blossom bead hairpin on her bun. She was pretty and beautiful.

She is slim and graceful, graceful and charming.

She did not squint to the old lady and gave a standard blessing: "the old lady is lucky."

Sound like the sound of nature.

Later, he turned to face Ji Mingxiu and said shyly and sweetly, "Lord Jin'an."

Ji Mingxiu nodded lightly in return.

The old lady was very satisfied. She took Qiao Yuxi's hand and said happily, "in the cold weather, please come with me again! Mingxiu arrived in the afternoon. I was thinking about when he would come to see you. Fortunately, you are coming! "

Qiao Yuxi, as beautiful as Puyu, quickly climbed a blush on her face, lowered her eyebrows and whispered: "Xi'er is here to send snacks to the old lady. He should have sent them to you earlier, but Xi'er went to the temple to pray for the old lady and adults, and came back late."The old lady sighed: "you are a child, you really have a heart. If you are half filial to Mingxiu, I will be Amitabha!"

Qiao Yuxi smiles sweetly: "adults are naturally filial to you, but adults care about the country and are busy with everything. Unlike Xi'er, who has nothing to do all day long, he seems to be more diligent than adults."

Speaking of this, the old lady felt comfortable.

Qiao Yuxi noticed the gold inlaid jade hairpin on my head: "old lady, your hairpin is really beautiful."

The old lady helped her hairpin and couldn't hide her smile: "it was bought by Mingxiu!"

"My Lord has a good eye." Qiao Yuxi sincerely boasted: "I can't pick out such a hairpin that suits you."

The old lady said with a smile: "next time let Mingxiu accompany you on the street, I'll choose one for you!"

Qiao Yuxi lowered his head shyly.

The old lady opened the snack box. Qiao Yuxi asked people to buy all the snacks from the town. They were wrapped in bamboo leaves. She didn't think they were high-grade enough, so she made a special box. It was exquisite and luxurious. The price of a box alone could buy hundreds of snacks.

"Oh, this little crab is so funny." The old lady picked up one and tasted it. "Look how filial Xi'er is to me. Every day, people come to the town so far away to buy me food!"

Ji Mingxiu didn't move.

Qiao Yuxi said: "my Lord, this kind of crispy crab meat tastes good, fragrant and soft, salty with sweet, you will like it."

"Mingxiu doesn't eat sweets." The old lady explained.

"Well, Xi'er remembers." Qiao Yuxi was disappointed.

Seeing that it was getting late, Qiao Yuxi got up to leave. Outside the house, it was snowing, and there was a vast expanse of white between heaven and earth.

The old lady put down the curtain and said to Ji Ming, "it's snowy. I'm not sure. You can escort Miss Qiao back to the house."

……

Snowflakes are falling, reflecting thousands of lights, every household closed the doors and windows, the street is a little calm.

The wheels and hooves of the horses rolled on the green stone path.

Qiao Yuxi is sitting in the warm carriage with two old ladies Tang on her legs and a warm hand in her hand. She frees up a plain white hand, opens the car curtain, looks at the noble and indifferent man on the steed, and says in a soft voice: "your honor, it's snowy outside. You can sit in the car."

"No need." Ji Ming has no facial expression.

"Then..." Qiao Yuxi hesitated and said to the coachman, "stop the car."

The coachman stopped the carriage by the road.

Qiao Yuxi got out of the car and looked up at the humanity on the horse: "my Lord, please come down."

After a pause, Ji Ming turned over and dismounted. His silver cloak was like a graceful arc blown out by the wind. It was his only masculine breath and came to Qiao Yuxi.

Qiao Yuxi's heartbeat missed a beat, red face, off his White Mink hair neck, gently around his neck.
