Part 1: Intertwined Time and Space Chapter 4: Trip to Li Country
Chapter 343 Gift (3)
After some movement, Chunxiu returned to the room, followed by San Yuxiao who was carrying some boxes.
Yue Qing has already gotten out of bed and is now sitting in front of the sink.
"The hospital master woke up so late, but he was hungry."
"Okay, what do you have in your hand?"
San Yuxiao put down the various gift boxes in his hands.
"Your gift."
"Done? It's really fast. Did Yue Ke send it?"
"right."
"Where are the others?"
"Outside the courtyard, after the courtyard master showed up yesterday, no one dares to enter the young lady's courtyard directly. Chang Shen is also waiting outside the door."
Chunxiu stepped forward to freshen her up.
Yue Qing looked at the box on the table, picked one up and opened it to take a look.
I saw a pair of exquisite bracelets in the box, with pink jade and purple pearls strung on a woven colorful flowing ribbon. Crystal clear and sparkling. Yue Qing's eyes lit up, "Wow, it's so beautiful. Give this bracelet to Zhuang Feier, she will definitely be satisfied."
San Yuxiao smiled and said: "It is indeed beautiful and valuable. This flowing silk thread was originally only for the use of each hospital master. The masters used it to give gifts. The people below did not dare to neglect it, so they could only try their best to give some away."
"They look good. I like them all. Although I don't like wearing them on myself, I still like looking at them."
"It must look good on your hand, Miss."
"I don't like wearing something so conspicuous."
Yue Qing put down the bracelet and opened another box, "Well, this pair of gilded white jade steps are also very delicately made. They feel even more exquisite than that bracelet."
San Yuxiao said: "The workmanship is exquisite, but the cost is far less than that bracelet."
Yue Qing took it and looked at it twice.
"If I have to choose, I'll pick this one. You're the one who carved the flower. The white jade petals can be carved so thin and lifelike. It's such an amazing skill." After saying that, he put down the step.
"Let me take a look at that."
Chang Yuxiao opened another box as he asked and handed it to her.
"This jade sword is not bad, but I think it can only be looked at. If you take it out, it may break. I hope Cheng Jingjing will like it."
"She will like it. The host is very good at choosing gifts."
Yue Qing smiled, sheathed the jade sword and returned it to Chang Yuxiao.
"Where's the one for Shi Ying?"
Chang Yuxiao picked up a box and gave it to her.
Yue Qing took it and put it in front of her eyes. When she opened it, she saw a pair of gold and jade coral bead bracelets. The beads on the bracelets were all large red coral beads, and the connected beads were all made of large translucent purple pearls. Very atmospheric.
Yue Qing is heavy in her hand. "This is more beautiful than those two kinds of jewelry. Look at the color of the flesh. I don't know if Shi Ying likes it or not."
"Don't worry, miss. Miss Shi Ying will definitely like it. She will definitely like such a good thing."
Yue Qing nodded: "Well, it's indeed good."
With that said, he put the things back into the box.
Cai'er knocked on the door: "Miss, breakfast is here."
Yue Qing nodded to Chun Xiu.
Chunxiu shouted: "Come in, the lady is ready."
Cai'er opened the door and walked in. She glanced at San Yuxiao first, then smiled and said to Yue Qing, "Miss, it's time to have breakfast."
"Okay, put it on the table."
Chunxiu took the washcloth from Yueqing's hand and put it next to the basin.
Yue Qing came to the table.
Seeing Cai'er still standing nearby, "How is Chang Ge?"
Cai'er was stunned for a moment and said, "He, Deacon Ge, is still being held in the outer courtyard."
"Had breakfast?"
"Cai'er doesn't know, someone should take good care of him."
"Let's go and take a look later. Don't be so angry that you haven't even eaten yet."
Cai'er didn't know what Yue Qing meant, so she thought for a moment and said, "Okay."
"Are Yue Ke and Chang Shen outside?"
"Deacon Ke is waiting for the summons in the middle courtyard, but Deacon Shen is outside."
"Tell Yue Ke that these things are very beautiful. I only care about the girls' gifts. He can take care of the men's gifts. Oh, by the way, forget about King Bowei's. Don't prepare them. I will prepare them myself."
Cai'er asked curiously: "Miss, prepare it yourself?"
"Well, I thought about it. I lost the game of finding things last time. I haven't given them the things I originally agreed on, but I just gave them to them together this time."
"Oh. What do you need to do, Miss? Do you want us to prepare the materials."
"Hmm~, just get some cloth, thread or whatever."
"Miss, do you want to make a purse? Isn't it a good idea to give this thing as a gift?"
"Don't worry, it's not."
"Okay, I'll get ready right now."
Cai'er turned around and went out.
After the meal, Yueqing wiped her mouth and handed the mouth-cleaning handkerchief to Chunxiu. said:
"Chunxiu, go and do your work. San Yuxiao will do the job."
Chunxiu nodded, followed by taking the box, plate and other items, turned them out, and closed the door.
Seeing Chunxiu go out, Chang Yuxiao asked: "The master of the hospital is really interested in these gifts, and he even designed the appearance himself."
Yue Qing looked at him and said: "It's just a general appearance. The specific design still has to be designed by the craftsmen. The Yue family is really powerful, so I gave them a general appearance, and the design was even better than I thought. ."
"What are you going to do with King Bowei's gift?"
"Hmm..." Yue Qing thought for a while and said, "I want to sew a doll."
"Rag doll? What is it?"
"It's, um, a doll, you know a doll, right?"
"I know, why are you giving this?"
"Our rag dolls are very common. Doesn't he want a trophy? I will sew one for him and give it to him myself."
San Yuxiao smiled and said, "The master of the hospital is going to sew a puppet of King Bowei and give it to King Bowei?"
"Yeah, can't you?"
"It's not impossible, it's just that generally no one gives such things."
"It's not popular here, but it's popular over there. Besides, I'm going to make a hanging one. Hang a string on the top of the doll's head, and then tell it to hang it in the room as a decoration."
Chang Yuxiao chuckled twice more.
"I'm afraid it will take a long time for the director to do it well."
"It's okay, I won't do that trouble, just make it simple. Cartoon type, our popular cartoon doll, just show the main characteristics and you can recognize it's him."
Chang Yuxiao nodded.
Yue Qing glanced at him, then turned to look at the door.
San Yuxiao saw her rolling her eyes, probably trying to do something. Sure enough, she heard her say: "Forget about the gift from King Bowei, hurry up and get the gold jade and coral bead bracelet that was given to Shi Ying. Let's make something." Hands and feet.”
As she spoke, Yue Qing walked into the room and sat down beside the bed.
Chang Yuxiao glanced at her, suppressed the restlessness in his heart, took the box and walked over.
"What tricks are you doing?"
Yue Qing whispered: "Is there anyone outside?"
San Yuxiao said: "Don't worry, Master, they can't hear you."
Yue Qing pulled him to sit over and whispered in his ear: "Shi Ying and I secretly made a secret signal... That's it, do you understand?"
After hearing this, Chang Yuxiao said: "Okay, just do as the hospital master said."
Yue Qing was satisfied: "You do it, I'll watch you."
Chang Yuxiao nodded, opened the box, and picked up the red bracelet.
The two of them tossed around in the room for a while. Outside the door, Cai'er was already waiting in the courtyard with the things she had prepared.
Chunxiu stood at the door, not hearing any obvious movement in the room and not daring to call anyone.
After the two waited patiently outside the room for a while, the door opened.
Chunxiu raised his head and glanced at San Yuxiao, who was neatly dressed: "Xiao, Xiao Lingwei."
Chang Yuxiao asked: "Are you ready for what the lady wants?"
Chunxiu glanced at Cai'er who was standing in the courtyard.
Cai'er said: "Ready."
"give it to me."
Cai'er stepped forward and handed them to him. Chang Yuxiao took the colorful fabrics, shook the corners of his mouth, and turned around to enter the room.
Cai'er looked at the door that was not closed, thought for a moment and then followed in. Chunxiu quickly followed.
Yue Qing took the needle, thread and fabric from Chang Yuxiao's hand and said with a smile: "They are really well prepared, with so many colors."
Cai'er said, "I didn't know what color fabric the lady wanted, so I prepared some."
Watching Yue Qing lying on the bed and turning over with interest.
Cai'er walked to the bed: "Miss, what do you want to do? When I went to get ready just now, Qing'er was still talking about me, so don't let the lady hurt her hand."
Yue Qing looked at her: "No, I'll just get started and do some work. I'm not a good embroiderer either. I need to make a few moves with the big needle, and then the rest will depend on you."
Cai'er smiled and said, "That's good. I just don't know what the lady plans to sew?"
"Sew King Bowei."
Cai'er didn't understand: "What are you sewing?"
Yue Qing glanced at her: "Sew a little doll of King Bowei, the kind that hangs up. This is the simplest thing I can think of that I can make. All the other materials needed to make other gifts are It’s too complicated, this is the simplest.”
Cai'er opened her mouth and was stunned for a moment: "Little baby?"
"Um."
Cai'er glanced at San Yuxiao and said, "Oh."
Yue Qing sat up and said, "Okay, don't say so much. All the other gifts are ready. The only thing missing is this. Let's do it quickly. Well, King Bowei usually likes to wear the black and yellow clothes, which happens to be his hair. It’s also black. Just use this piece of cloth.”
Saying that, Yue Qing picked up a piece of fabric dyed black and said, "Come on, Cai'er, cut it out."
Cai'er took it and took a look, "Here, how big is the cut size, ma'am?"
Yue Qing gestured, "Just as big as this will be fine, just square and square."
Cai'er hesitated and cut out a piece. I thought: How can I make a doll from such a small piece of fabric?
Yueqing took it and put it on the small case. Then she took a small piece of cloth at random, kneaded it into a ball, tied it and put it on the black cloth. She turned it over and said, "Well, the head is about like this. It's just not quite round. But his head is not round to begin with. Chunxiu, please thread me a thread."
Chunxiu said oh and quickly threaded the thread.
Cai'er looked at the little baby's head: "Miss, is this the head?"
"Well, of course it won't end just like that. I'll definitely have to polish it up later."
Cai'er nodded quickly and said, "That's it."
Yue Qing asked: "Which one of you is good at embroidery?"
Cai'er shook her head quickly, "I'm not good at needlework."
Chunxiu also quickly shook his head: "Chunxiu doesn't know it either." He thought to himself: Even if he knows it, he can't do it. The lady said that this is King Bowei, who is King Bowei, and if he sews on his villain, he will be beheaded. of.
Yue Qing glanced at San Yuxiao. San Yuxiao was nervous and was about to say something when she said, "You must not be good at it either."
Cai'er smiled and said, "Miss, Qing'er is good at it."
Yue Qing said: "Then call Qing'er quickly."
Cai'er nodded: "Okay, I'll call Qing'er over right now."
"Well, you go ahead and I'll do the basics first."
Cai'er responded and turned out.
Qing'er is in the small house next to the small building. Yueqing doesn't like many people, so they stay there when they have nothing to do on weekdays.
Listen to Cai'er come over and talk.
Qiaoer said: "The troubles have started again. I think the young lady has forgotten everything about yesterday."
Qing'er glanced at her: "Miss, her mind is changing rapidly now, no one can tell."
Cai'er said: "It's useless to think about it now, go quickly, the lady is still waiting."
Qing'er nodded.
Qiaoer said: "What about me? Do you want to go over there and take a look?"
"You should be busy with other things. I just called you Qing'er. Her temperament changes at any time. Don't cause any trouble."
Seeing them leaving, Qiaoer sighed: "What can I do to be busy?"
When Qing'er came over, Yueqing had already finished the basic shape of the villain. Although it is rough, it does have some appearance.
Cai'er sighed: "Young lady's hands are so skillful. She didn't look like a villain at first, but now she really looks like one. She even has clothes inside and outside."
Qing'er took the little man and said, "Miss, is this King Bowei?"
"Yes, I have already finished the basic shape. Qiao'er, you used silver thread to embroider two stripes on the sleeves, the clothes, and the shoulders. Also, this is what I asked Chunxiu to do. Cut yellow rags. Just sew them onto the clothes. You don’t have to plan where to sew, just sew them casually.”
Qing'er smiled and said, "Don't worry, miss, I'll finish the tattoo first."
Yue Qing nodded and watched Qing'er come to life.
He held his head and looked at it for a while and said: "Oh, by the way, there is also a belt, and that piece of cloth hanging in the front. In fact, I have always been very strange. I see many people have it on their clothes. King Bowei has that hanging in the front of his clothes. What is the piece of cloth used for? Is it to look good?"
San Yuxiao smiled and said: "It's called knee-covering. It has no special function. If it has a function, it is a requirement of etiquette. That piece of cloth has some status symbols, and people with a certain status will have it on their clothes."
"Oh, I see it's on Mo Xue's clothes too. Does it also represent his identity?"
"There are many things related to etiquette on Mo Xue's clothes, not just the piece of fabric you see. The most obvious one should be the auspicious cloud pattern, which represents his authority in the Mo family."
"Oh, it seems that there are blue auspicious cloud patterns on his clothes, and there is also a piece of cloth on the front of the clothes. No wonder he often wears clothes like that. Mo Xue's clothes have the most hanging things I have ever seen, and the jade pendant on his body is Not to mention, are those straps on clothes also required by etiquette?"
Chang Yuxiao nodded: "The hospital master is right, it is also a requirement of etiquette. Mo Xue knows this best. If you are interested, you can ask him carefully."
"That's not necessary. I just think it's easier to catch things with so many straps hanging outside."
Cai'er smiled and said, "Deacon Xue is not a young lady, and he is not honest when he walks. He never gets hung up on anything when he walks."
"That's true."
Qing'er interjected while sewing clothes: "Miss, you are observing carefully, but you are not careful enough. Not only Mo Xue's clothes, but also many other people's clothes also have fixed patterns."
Yue Qing looked at her and said: "I also know this. The most obvious thing is that these Red Guards have uniform red python patterns on their clothes. I have always thought they are very good-looking and very majestic. In comparison, Qi Jiao wears Their clothes are not as majestic as theirs, Qi Jiao is obviously the leader?"
Cai'er said: "Although Qi Jiao is the commander, his status is not as high as that of the Red Guards. Although the Red Guards are usually under the jurisdiction of Qi Jiao, the Red Guards will eventually belong to the masters of the hospital. In terms of status, they are worse than the Red Guards. Qi Jiao is taller. The lady said that the clothes of Commander Jiao are not as majestic as the clothes of the Red Guards, and that is also determined by etiquette. The guards commanders all wear black robes with eagle patterns, while the Red Guards wear red robes with bold patterns."
Yue Qing suddenly realized: "Oh, no wonder."
Cai'er continued: "Not only their clothes, but also the clothes Deacon Song usually wears are according to Chang's etiquette, red clothes..." He suddenly stopped mid-sentence and looked at Yue Qing's face.
Qing'er also looked over.
Yue Qing smiled and said, "I can see it. Hey, I'm going too far. Let's make King Bowei's belt. I feel that the color of his belt is not completely black, but more like dark purple. Let's use this purple cloth. Chunxiu, cut a long strip quickly, and some black cloth strips by the way, you need to do his hair. Oh, by the way, Cai'er, go find some jewelry, he also has a jade pendant on his belt."
Cai'er said hurriedly: "Okay, I'll get it right away."
After working for a while, the villain was finally made. Even the facial features on the face were embroidered by Qing'er according to Yue Qing's instructions.
Yueqing took the little figure and turned it over and over. Satisfied: "Not bad."
Qing'er smiled and said: "Miss, you really have an idea. She makes it look so similar, but she has no hands or feet."
Yue Qing said while hanging jewelry on the little doll, "Why do we need hands and feet? The sleeves represent hands, and the feet are also blocked by the clothes."
Sanyu laughed.
After putting the hair crown on the villain, Yue Qing said, "Well, great work has been done. Chunxiu, go find a box to put it in. Then call Chang Shen to give away all these gifts."
