Chapter 147: Meeting Guests (1)
Shuangji carried the food box back to the yard. She usually only took a stick of incense every time she came back, but this time it took less than half an hour.

By the time the food was served on the table, there was not much heat left.

Shuangji rubbed his hands, and said to Gao Lan in embarrassment: "Otherwise, I'll put it on the stove to warm it up for you?"

Gao Lan said: "Forget it, bring some hot water."

Shuangji went to fetch hot water from the stove, and Gao Lan asked her to pour hot water over the rice, turning the rice into pickled rice, and ate a bowl with the vegetables.

When Shuangji was cleaning up the dishes, she was already very disturbed. Today, before the wife said anything, they were bullied like this. If they really ordered people to do something in two days, how would they live?

Just at this time, two maidservants brought some clothes and jewelry.It was from Yuan Lu.The jewelry was selected from Yuan Lu's dowry, and the clothes were made for Gao Lan when she made them for the whole family earlier, but she was afraid that taking them out would make the old lady unhappy, so she kept them all the time.It's a good time to take it out.

One of the maids who came to deliver things was Qingjiang, who was the most capable around Yuan Lu, and the other was a maid named Bixi who didn't walk around in front of people.She was Yuan Lu's second-class maid as a dowry, and she was also carefully selected by the Chen family, but she was not as reassuring as Qingjiang and Lushui, so she was never mentioned to Yuan Lu's side.

After the two maids put their things down, Qing Jiang said: "Madam explained that there are many things in the Japanese mansion, and there is only one maid beside the girl, so she specially sent Bixi to take care of her."

Bixi bowed her knees and saluted, and said in a calm and unhurried manner: "My servant Bixi has seen the girl. Madam asked the servant to serve the girl tomorrow, but the servant's qualifications are dull, so I ask the girl to guide her." She was fifteen or sixteen years old, with a beautiful appearance.Although he is not as sophisticated as Qingjiang in speaking and dealing with things, he is already outstanding.

Gao Li got her up, and looked at the things in the tray by herself.They are all good things, especially the clothes, the materials and workmanship are all top-notch, and they are not made hastily.

The things were delivered, and the words were also brought, and Qingjiang didn't stay much.

Gao Li asked Shuangji to see her off, and gave her a pouch with a wink.

Shuangji sent it all the way to the gate of the courtyard, took out a purse from his sleeve, and handed it to Qingjiang, saying: "Sister, you have worked hard, my girl treats you to tea."

Qing Jiang stretched out his hand to block it back, "I don't dare to ask for a reward from the girl for doing something for my wife. You should stay." After saying that, he went away on his own.

Shuangji looked at the exquisitely embroidered purse in his hand, not to mention the silver locks inside, even the purse alone could be sold for a few coins outside.She also murmured in her heart, how come this lady's eyes are so high that she doesn't even notice these things?

After Qingjiang went back, he told Gao Li's reaction and Shuangji's plan to stuff her purse in full detail.

After hearing this, Yuan Lu smiled and said, "If she wants to give it to you, just take it. Why are you pushing back the reward?"

Qing Jiang smiled and didn't say anything more.She has a stable personality, and she doesn't say what she thinks like Lu Shui, but what Lu Shui said today is similar to what she thinks.

Yuan Lu asked someone to serve tea, and said to her, "Sit with me for a while, drink some tea and then go back. I think it's windy at night, go back after you warm up."

Qing Jiangdao: "The wind has been strong these two days and the night has been cold, and Lu Shui has been kicking the quilt in the middle of the night. If the slave does not go back, she will freeze herself out of illness."

The two of them lived in the same house, and although they were not much different in age, they were usually in the green water of the Qingjiang River.

After hearing this, Yuan Lu said, "Then you should go back earlier and keep warm. These days are busy days, so you must not fall ill."

"Ma'am, don't worry, slaves don't dare to be lazy."
