After watching for a while, Taoye stretched himself out and sat down in front of the dressing table.
There is a bronze mirror and a two-layer mahogany carved jewelry box on the wenge wood dressing table. Taoye puts a few commonly used jewelry on the upper layer, and a few red gold jewelry that the wife appreciated on the lower layer.
She has a habit, a habit she has developed on purpose. She will not close the jewelry box tightly after use, leaving a little gap.
Firstly, I was afraid that someone might have dirty hands and feet and take advantage of others, and secondly, I was afraid that someone would put more things in there.
But now the two layers of the box are tightly closed, and the jewelry box has been moved a little further.
There was a lot of dust on the furniture in the room, and she had only been to the academy for a few days, which meant that no one had cleaned the room, which meant that someone had touched the box.
Taoye looked at the second floor first and took out all the hairpins.
There is a lot of one thing and not a lot of one thing.
He also took out the ones on the bottom floor. There were only a few things on the bottom floor, no more and no less.
Taoye frowned, but her heart still didn't let go.
This man neither takes anything away nor puts anything in, so why open his jewelry box.
Tao Ye's eyes were still on the pile of jewelry on the table. The sunlight filtered through the window screen and fell on these gold, silver, or copper jewelry, which were polished to a smooth surface. Some of them were dazzling.
Suddenly, Taoye's eyes narrowed, he picked up a gilt copper hairpin and looked at the sun carefully for a while.
Then he gently twisted the hairpin head, and the hairpin head and the hairpin body below were actually separated.
The hairpin body is still hollow.
Taoye thought of something and glanced outside. Seeing that no one was around, she spread the handkerchief on the table and tapped the hairpin on the handkerchief, and some light red powder came out.
really.
She did not rush forward to smell it, but carefully closed the veil and put it together with the hairpin that was screwed together again.
Just as he was thinking about what to do, a pea-green figure walked past the window.
"Nagumo!"
"Is something wrong, girl?"
The figure then stopped under the window.
"Come in, I'm inconvenienced and I need your help with something!"
Taoye said with a smile.
"I really can't walk a long way with this body. I would like to ask your help to go to the main courtyard and find a second-class maid named Huicao to ask for something!"
"I gave her a gilt-copper hairpin before, but I forgot that it was a pair. Today I thought of combing my hair, and it came in handy. I wanted to exchange the silver hairpin for the hairpin!"
Taoye said and handed out a substantial silver hairpin.
"I'm going right away!"
Nanyun took the hairpin and went out without saying a word.
This maid has a really special temperament.
Cool and crisp!
But unexpectedly, my eyes closed.
Taoye didn't wait long, and Nanyun came back with the flower hairpin, but he didn't give out the silver hairpin either.
"Huicao said, I have spared the girl a lot of good things before, I can't ask for this hairpin again!"
Nanyun put the hairpin on the dressing table and said to Taoye.
"sorry to bother you!"
Taoye took the hairpin from Nanyun's hand and thanked her politely.
"If the girl has no other instructions, Nanyun will go down first!"
Nanyun went out and took a look at the folded handkerchief and the hairpin on it.
Taoye noticed her actions, but pretended not to know and put away the hairpin and handkerchief.
Her back was covered with injuries and she couldn't lie down. The back of her hands was also injured. She could only sit on the bed, thinking about the unfinished work in the academy.
It's a pity that I didn't bring back anything from the house over there, just the cloth and jewelry. The most pity is those books.
Taoye leaned on the bedside and regretted, and there was a noise outside.
"Be careful, put these in the study!"
"Put these in the Fifth Young Master's bedroom!"
"Leave that box alone for now!"
It is the sound of traveling clouds and returning clouds.
By the way, it seems that I have never seen these two people when I came back this time. Usually they are always around the fifth young master.
Taoye pushed herself up and walked to the door.
There were several boxes on the ground in the yard outside.
"Miss Taoye, why did you come out on your own?"
Guiyun was the first to see Tao Ye. After giving orders to the boy carrying the things, he said to Tao Ye.
"Brother Guiyun, what are you doing?"
"These are all things brought back from the academy."
Guiyun Road.
"By the way, that box belongs to the girl. I'll have someone carry it in right now!"
"Will the fifth young master not go to the academy in the future?"
Taoye looked at the boxes on the ground, which brought back all the clothes and furnishings in the yard, and couldn't help but wonder.
"Young lady, I don't know that the young men from the high-ranking families in Shengjing can only stay in Shouyang Academy until they are eighteen years old. After this age, they will leave the academy. The young master was supposed to come back next month, but there was such a big surprise in the hunting ground. The whole academy now..."
"Guiyun!"
A loud shout came from one side.
Taoye turned around and saw Xingyun coming over with a solemn face, but what he was holding in his hand made Taoye's eyes light up.
"Miss Taoye, this is what the young master ordered to bring back to the house!"
Xingyun glared at Guiyun and placed the cage in his hand inside the door.
Inside, the little silver fox was purring.
"I'm the one who said too much... You guys carry Miss Taoye's things in first!"
Gui Yun smiled sarcastically.
The box was quickly carried into the house by the servants, and Xingyun and the two walked away, continuing to call the servants to carry the remaining things.
Tao Ye's heart is focused on the little silver fox at the moment.
One day later, the little silver fox was still so enthusiastic when he saw her, and kept whining at the peach leaves.
Ignoring the pain from the wounds on her arms and back, Taoye bent down, lifted the cage, and placed it on the table.
I don’t know if the little silver fox ate anything later. Taoye didn’t have any food at hand, so he fed him some water like last time. Looking at the way the little silver fox licked especially vigorously, Taoye knew that the little silver fox must be hungry. Extremely.
It's time to eat when it's lunch time.
"The fifth young master is back!"
"Fifth Young Master!"
At this time, people's greetings sounded outside the door.
From the window, Taoye saw the lake-blue figure walking towards the main room, followed by two boys carrying food boxes.
"Miss Taoye, the young master wants you to serve in the main room!"
Not long after, Guiyun came to call for help.
Taoye didn't dare to delay, so she was about to push herself up, but as soon as she was halfway up, she was held firmly by someone.
"Thank you Nagumo!"
"It's the master's order!"
Nan Yun lowered his eyes and said lightly, then carefully supported Tao Ye and walked out.
Although this maid was taciturn, she took care of her very carefully. Not only did she hold her steady, she did not touch Tao Ye's wounds at all.
Tao Ye was supported by her, which was easier than Bi Yun and Bi Xiao's support just now.
"five……"
Arriving at the table in the main room, Taoye was about to salute when he was interrupted by Rong Jiu: "No need, sit down!"
As soon as Taoye looked at the dishes on the table, she knew they were made from the kitchen in the madam's yard. Everything was exquisite, and the portions were far above the rest.
"Brother Xingyun, we are here to serve the young master!"
