Concubine, please respect yourself

Chapter 52 Beauty
The sun is spring and the sun is clear, and with the breeze, the refreshing energy is sent to the hearts of the people.

Luo Ning was in a hurry at the gate of Lanyue Pavilion, her sleeves were tightly twisted, and there was a little sweat on her forehead.

It's nothing else, but the chest-length skirt spring dress that shopkeeper Baili made for the young lady hasn't arrived yet.

Seeing that he will be boarding the sedan chair in a few hours, there is no news about it.Could it be that the shopkeeper Baili forgot to go?

It's better to go to the small courtyard to remind me again.

Standing on tiptoe, Luo Ning glanced at the folding door of Miss's boudoir before it was opened, hurriedly called Bai Lu who was carrying cleansing water to the side and was about to wake Miss up, and said, "My dear sister, don't go first."

Seeing Luo Ning's expression calling her in a hurry, Bai Lu hurriedly leaned over and asked respectfully, "Does sister have any other orders?"

Luo Ning waved her hand and pulled her aside, pointed to the carved folding door not far away, and said softly: "The spring clothes from Shopkeeper Baili haven't arrived yet, so don't be in a hurry to wake up Miss."

Bai Lu understood, quickly nodded her head, and winked playfully at Luo Ning.

This lovely cleverness is also pleasing to the eye.

Luo Ning smiled and told her to leave first, but he wrinkled his eyebrows and hesitated at the gate of the yard.

I made up my mind and was about to go to Bailiyao's small courtyard, when I saw a little maid wearing a lotus root powder double-breasted skirt, walking towards this side in a hurry, holding a mahogany tray in her hand, her steps were brisk but three times too long. Very steady.

Seeing the figure getting closer and closer, Luo Ning also cast some praise in his eyes, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "This girl is so disciplined!"

After a few breaths, the little servant girl respectfully stood in front of Luo Ning, bowed and said, "I've met Sister Luo Ning."

Raising Su's hand, he handed the mahogany tray forward.

Luo Ning took it, with a kind face on his face, and asked with a smile: "You are new here, why haven't I seen you before?"

The little servant girl frowned slightly, and quickly returned to her usual answer: "This servant girl is newly called into the mansion, and her name is Han Jingzhe."

24 solar terms, before the vernal equinox is the Jingzhe.

"Oh, it's sister Jingzhe! Look at my memory, Miss must have woken up, you go in with me!" After finishing speaking, he took Jingzhe's hand and entered the inner room.

Mrs. Lu has rules, except for the first-class maids who serve her personally, the rest of the second-class maids can only work in the courtyard, and those who can enter the inner room can talk to the young lady.

Jing Zhe was stunned, for a while she didn't understand Luo Ning's intention.

In fact, Luo Ning saw that she was well-behaved and generous, so she wanted to give her a bouquet in front of the young lady.

Pushing open the door of the Nuan Pavilion, a burst of clear and refreshing tea fragrance overflowed from the inside, entangled the heart like a drizzle.

This is what the third son obtained from the Western Regions, and I heard that a piece of fingernails would not be exchanged for a thousand pieces of gold.

Ever since Mrs. Lu Sister burned it for the first time, she felt that the bewildering scent of cedar was very suitable for her, and she burned it almost day and night. worthwhile.

"Have you got it?" A woman asked lazily from behind the white curtain.

Luo Ning didn't answer, but elbowed Jing Zhe who was dazed beside him with his elbow, seeing her looking at him hazily, he raised his chin inward again and winked.

It was only then that Jing Zhe realized that it was Luo Ning who wanted to flatter herself, and nodded gratefully towards her, then squeezed the hem of her skirt tightly and gasped, "Miss Hui, shopkeeper Baili has been working day and night and finally finished it, please ask the lady to change her clothes." .”

"Oh? Why don't the second-class maids serve outside the house?" The woman asked lightly, and the maids serving in the house broke out in a cold sweat.

Luo Ning was about to answer when she heard the woman in the room chuckle and say: "Since that's the case, come in!"

Seeing that the young lady didn't blame her, Luo Ning stuck out her tongue at Jing Zhe, put the tray in her hand, and patted her on the shoulder, giving her a reassuring smile.

Jing Zhe pursed her lips, summoned up her courage to lift the curtain, and looked at the woman in the emerald-colored carp bellyband on the carved bed.

The skin is like creamy fat, and the face is like orchids.

A pair of winking eyes, full of hazy spring water, were looking at her with a three-pointed smile.

The woman propped her head with one hand, and the other hand held the blue silk on her chest. The brocade quilt embroidered with rich and precious flowers only covered the woman's round buttocks, and her slender waist was exposed to hook her graceful figure.

As soon as Jing Zhe came in, she saw this fragrant scene, she couldn't help but blushed, and hurriedly lowered her eyes, not daring to take a second look.

Hastily opened the box placed on the red case, and took out a pine-colored chest-length skirt from inside.

The woman on the bed raised her eyebrows, admiring Baili Yao's ingenious choice of colors, and today's banquet is all about competing for beauty.

It's spring, and daughters often choose beautiful colors to make clothes. The pine flower color placed in those beautiful variegated colors is refreshing and pleasing to the eye. Besides, the pine flower color is very attractive, and it needs people with fair and delicate skin Bring out the elegance of this pine color.

"En, that's right! Shopkeeper Baili has a very good eye." The beauty on the bed lifted the brocade quilt, sat down on the bed barefoot, and walked towards the table.

Jing Zhe hastily shook off the clothes cautiously, so that her own lady could take a closer look.

Except for a few newly bloomed crabapple flowers embroidered in rose purple and yellow on the tube top, there are no other complicated patterns, and even the waist is made of plain satin.

"It's really a unique design." Lu Ziyu squinted his eyes and chuckled, not knowing how much he admired Bailiyao.

This good sister-in-law should not run away.

"Shopkeeper Baili is skillful, this dress is really well tailored." Jing Zhe looked at the delicate dresses and jewelry on the table, with a hint of sorrow in her eyes, and quickly put them away.

"Young lady, let's change the clothes for the young lady. If the sedan chair arrives late at the Mu Mansion, I'm afraid the wives of the noble family will talk about it again, which will damage the reputation of the young lady!" little trick.

The Lu family has just arrived in Beijing not long ago, and today they must be the targets of other prominent families' trials, and there can be no mistake in this slightest etiquette.

If Lu Ziyu came late today, they would definitely seize on this shortcoming and make up rumors that the Miss Lu family doesn't know the rules and is really a country girl.

Lu Ziyu knew that the dirty tricks of the ladies in Beijing were not uncommon, but she would have to worry about the deceitful tricks that the maids around her could see through.

"Then wash up!" Lu Ziyu stretched out his green onion dyed with Danko to caress the crabapple flowers on the tube top, and looked at Jing Zhe with his head down beside him with interest in his eyes.

Shocking Zhe saluted and retreated to the outer hall, then nodded to Luo Ning, indicating that the young lady had got up.

Luo Ning understood, pushed open the Zhezi door and patted his palms, and a group of serving maids came from the distance of the corridor.

In normal times, three or two people would be enough to serve the young lady to change clothes. This is different from the past. This is the first battle that the young lady fought for the Lu family after the Lu family returned to Beijing. The capital is clear.

The maids also knew that the young lady was out for important business today, and they served her more meticulously than usual.

First, I burned incense and bathed, then put on plain clothes and sat in front of the mirror, wrung face, put on rouge and powder, changed clothes and hair. People who didn't know this thought that her young lady was getting married today.

After dressing up and dressing up, I almost missed the time for breakfast.

Bai Lu was about to pick up the last gold-threaded crabapple hairpin on the table and insert it into the high bun, but was stopped by a bare hand.

"Put this one in!" Lu Ziyu stroked his upper lip and yawned, then handed a clear water glazed tassel hairpin to Jing Zhe beside him.

Bai Lu thinks that she is good at dressing up, and after looking at the hairpin in Jingzhe's hand, she realizes that her lady is indeed from a pampered family. Although the gold silk begonia hairpin is similar to the style on the tube top, it lacks embellishment and stands out The beauty of the first-opened begonia can't be lost, but if it is replaced with a glass hairpin, it will not only make the rose purple and jade yellow colors on the tube top beautiful and colorful, but also add a bit of agility.

Jing Zhe took the hairpin and inserted it into the bun, really making the beauty in the mirror look like Liu Shengyan, frail and graceful.

The beauty in the mirror seemed to be extremely satisfied with the makeup, her red lips were slightly drawn, and her eyes were smiling.

But it's hard to tell whether it's Jiao or Dao hidden in this smile.
