Chapter 271 Love is deep and righteous
Pei Yi was originally confused, but when she heard the words "contact him a lot", she suddenly became enlightened.
After a long time, is Du Heng releasing this signal?
I think so too, Du Heng has not been in the Xiao family for many years, and now he is alone and helpless for the first time back, and the family still wants to force him to marry.
If she can contact Du Heng more and support Du Heng invisibly, people who want to come to the Xiao family will also be more polite to Du Heng.
And now that Du Heng gave her this kind of expressive thing, he also wanted to let the people of the Xiao family know that he and her have a special relationship.
Pei Yi comprehended, put the jade hairpin into a brocade box and packed it up, and said with a light smile, "I understand it with A Niang's point."
Mrs. Pei joked: "Why are you leaving it? This jade hairpin is very good in appearance, and it happens to be Xiao Langjun's wish. Don't you wear it?"
Pei Yi thought that if she wore this Jade Mountain jade hairpin with twining patterns, it would also be a way to support Du Heng.
She nodded with a chuckle and said, "Wait until the right time to wear it. After all, this hairpin also has to match clothes, so it's a pity to wear it casually."
Qi Sha's eyes darkened, and he thought to himself: The third master really cares about Du Hengzhen, even if he wears the hosta gift from Du Heng, he has to choose a suit of clothes to match.
Mrs. Pei laughed and teased: "Look at your sweet mouth, you are really good at coaxing people like your father. You can talk affectionately when you don't do that. No wonder a group of gentlemen can be coaxed by you .”
Pei Yi shouted in depression and embarrassment: "Mother!"
"Why are you still embarrassed?" Mrs. Pei was full of interest, and joked, "What kind of gift are you planning to return to Mr. Xiao?"
Pei Yi thought it was a very simple matter, and chuckled lightly without thinking: "Just a letter expressing my miss, and send me some valuable things."
Qi Sha glanced secretly at the third master who was sitting aside, then lowered his eyes, staring at the ground under his feet without saying a word.
The third master is going to send letters to Du Heng.
Sure enough, literate people are elegant and interesting.
If he wrote a letter to the third master, he could at most write a sentence of "I love you", and he couldn't hold back any other literary and romantic words.
I am so boring.
Qisha sulked silently.
Mrs. Pei shook her head slightly, and said with a smile: "Although the things you gave are not brilliant, they are not wrong."
Pei Yi didn't take it seriously, and thought to herself: Does this thing need anything special? The effect is what matters.
Mrs. Pei turned her head and asked, "Butler Liu, what are the other annual gifts here?"
Butler Liu is a fine person, and immediately picked the key point and said: "Yongzhou Guide Sijie Xun Huan sent a gift box. There is no gift list, but there is a letter."
Another person without a gift list, it seems that this gift is ingenious again. Butler Liu thought secretly.
"This box is really exquisite." Mrs. Pei covered her lips with a smile while pinching the brocade handkerchief embroidered with the double-sided pine and crane pattern, and teased, "If it were me, just having such a box would be considered a New Year's gift. "
Butler Liu deeply agrees.
The gift box sent by Mr. Xun Lang is really exquisite—a small octagonal palace with double eaves, and eight gemstones of different colors are evenly inlaid around the gold-plated top.
Pei Yi couldn't put it down when she looked at such a treasure box.
"Hey, don't just hold a box and read it." Mrs. Pei joked, "There are really interesting things in it."
The way to open the box is also very interesting. You can get a glimpse of the mystery when you open the two delicate gilt doors at the same time.
Pei Yi took out the things placed inside, smiled lightly and said, "It's a forbidden step."
The so-called "forbidden step" is an accessory made of jade, which is tied around the waist and used to hold down the hem of the skirt.
When wearing walking, the jade on the forbidden step makes a crisp sound when it collides lightly, which is "walking with jade".
The nobleman walks leisurely, and the voice of Mingyu is gentle and appropriate, which is a polite and elegant move.
If Mingyu's voice is disorganized, it is impolite.
"These young gentlemen are really not ashamed, and they all give some personal things." Mrs. Pei joked as she took the forbidden step from her daughter.
Qi Sha puffed her cheeks slightly, thinking resentfully: Isn't it because you are not ashamed? It's sending jade hairpins, and sending forbidden steps, which one is not an extremely private thing? Du Heng and Xun Huan are really more slutty than the other! shameless!
"Ouch..." Mrs. Pei stuffed the forbidden step back into her daughter's hand after watching it for a while, spread her handkerchief to cover her face, and said half-jokingly and half-seriously, "I'm so ashamed. Is it so straightforward?"
Pei Yi took a look at the forbidden step, but there was nothing unusual about it.
Mrs. Pei came over and said in a low voice, "Didn't you understand the painting carved on the forbidden step?"
Pei Yi said blankly: "Hai Qing He Yan, you are so dignified."
Mrs. Pei let out a chuckle, and guided her: "Look carefully, this painting looks serious on the surface, but in fact, they are saying: Sijun weeps until dawn. Xun Huan, this child, almost repeats in your ear: I I really miss you."
Pei Yi suddenly felt steam on her face.
She said in embarrassment: "How can you be so unruly?"
"I think he is not serious." Mrs. Pei covered her lips and smiled lightly, "I thought Xiao Langjun was a romantic person, but I didn't expect this Xun Langjun to be even more romantic. Hey, there is still a letter here, open it quickly Come and see."
Pei Yi was very worried that the letter might contain some swear words, so she hesitated to open it.
Ms. Pei took the letter directly, opened it, and laughed with a chuckle.
Pei Yi was even more embarrassed, she blushed and didn't dare to look at it.
Mrs. Pei brought the letter to her, and said with a smile: "Look at this child Xun Huan, his father is an incomprehensible wood, but he knows it very well."
Pei Yi glanced at the letter, it was all about the official positions in the army, and the grades were added at the back.
It is quite satisfactory, and there is nothing unusual about it.
"Did you forget how Steward Liu called Xun Huan just now?" Mrs. Pei reminded with a smile.
Pei Yi thought about it, and said uncertainly: "What rank?"
"That's enough." Mrs. Pei said with a smile, "how can ordinary people understand what an official position in the army is?"
"Mr. Xun Lang attached this official job list to show you that he is serious in the military for the future of both of you."
"Although he has not been in the barracks for a long time now, he has already taken the position of 'Guide Division'."
"The rank of Guide is from the sixth rank. Although the rank is not too high, but he has been promoted from an unknown person to such a position in just a few months, unless he has made great achievements."
