Chapter 29 A Different Kind of Gift(1/2)
The boat owner used his big skirt to wrap the eight fish around her, and the eight fish jumped around in her arms, lifting the water on her face.
But the boat owner still smiled and said, "I will find a wooden barrel and put it on for the girl."
"You need two." Yang Yao'er said.
“Yes yes.”
But Yang Yaoer then thought again, could the bucket be delivered? The nanny brought her things and gave her gifts, as if they were packed in boxes. So Yang Yaoer thought about it and told her: "One bucket, two big boxes."
The ship owner didn't care why Yang Yaoer gave this order. After hearing the words, he went to get it obediently.
A bucket is divided into four fish.
A box is divided into four fish.
Xiao Guanghe: "..."
After the new year, I have different preferences from others. I like to place fish in a box. What should I do? Is it a specimen? It’s just this dead fish specimen...?
After thinking about it, Xiao Guanghe can only attribute it to, perhaps because this is beyond ordinary people, and he does not think that using fish as specimens is worse than using flowers, plants, insects and stones to have leisure... Most people's aesthetic taste is higher than that of everyone.
The servant on the boat pressed the fish into the box and closed it, but there was still a box left.
Everyone took it with their hands and divided some rouge and water powder into it. The glass on the shell and the gems made a jingle sound like the sound of money. Yang Yao'er put it on and gave it to the guard: "Give it." After that, she pointed to a box of fish: "And it."
The guard took it in a daze.
"Go." Yang Yaoer said again.
So the guard got off the boat in a daze, and when the boat approached the shore, he jumped onto the shore.
But when he got ashore, he was stunned again.
Go? Where to go? Go to the palace?
The guard thought that this should be the case, otherwise what would he do?
So he held two boxes high and rushed all the way to the palace, thinking that he would be faster, so that the fish would not die so thoroughly.
...
In this case, Eunuch Zhao raised the curtain, entered the inner room, bowed to Xiao Yi, and then said, "Someone came back to report once, saying that the Li family accompanied the girl out of the house to play, and also visited two rouge shops."
"What about now?"
"Now I went to the east of the city to attend a poetry meeting."
"It's getting late now, and she hasn't returned home?"
"It's said that there is a boat tour after the poetry party. Maybe the girl is still playing. The girl with the Li family is accompanied by palace guards and there are no trouble." Eunuch Zhao said hurriedly.
But Xiao Yi felt uncomfortable no matter how he heard it.
It seems like a thorn pierces into the heart, it hurts or not, but it is really unpleasant.
He lowered his eyes and stared at the pen at his hand. The slender body actually made him feel a desire to break it.
"She used to live in the countryside, but later entered the palace. She had never been to many places or met many people. This time she left the palace and played around. She must have been very happy and looked at her eyes and didn't want to turn..." Xiao Yi said in a deep voice.
Eunuch Zhao thought to himself, should I say the girl have fun or not?
Before he could choose the answer from this difficult question, someone bowed outside the curtain and said, "The emperor, two guards sent to protect Miss Yang, one of them came back. He was still holding something in his hand, thinking that he wanted to present something to the emperor."
When Xiao Yi heard this, he did not feel comfortable in his heart, but instead felt a deeper sense of bipolarity.
After all, it was just across the palace wall and the distance, and it was no less than under the nose. As soon as I asked, I knew what she was doing.
Now it's so troublesome.
He didn't know anything she did outside.
"Bring him here." Xiao Yi said.
"Yes." The palace servant outside responded and quickly turned around to pass the message.
Soon, the guard Gao came in with a box.
Xiao Yi was sensitive and first smelled a strange smell, like the fishy smell of water...
The guard soon arrived in front of him. He knelt down and saluted, and then presented the box. Xiao Yi understood what she said when she left. She said, "Do you."
He just thought she was talking, how could he really remember it?
Now I really give it to him.
Xiao Yi raised his hand and lifted the lid. Everyone couldn't help but look quietly. Then they saw four fish squeezed inside. The one on the top waved its tail and jumped out and landed on the table.
Everyone showed horror: "..."
If it weren't for the guards, they would have doubted who sent it on purpose, which was an unknown meaning!
Who gave this fish in the box?
Xiao Yi looked surprisingly calm. If you look closely, the gloomy and depressing look between his eyebrows faded away.
He asked the guards: "Did the girl go fishing today?"
"The girl was on the boat and heard that there were fish inside, so she caught eight of them."
Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows slightly.
Batou really gave him half of it, and he didn't hide his own privateness at all.
I looked down at the bold and reckless fish that jumped and swung their tails on the emperor's table, and the remaining fish that were squeezed to death in the box, became beautiful and cute.
The palace servants in the room were as beautiful as vegetables.
I always feel that the fish looks miserable. Whether it is appearance or smell, it really makes people like it. Didn’t Miss Yang even give flowers in the past? Why did she change to send fish when she left the palace? Which idiot urged her?
Xiao Yi is different from them.
Instead, he felt more and more happy, and even rose.
Where can he lack jewelry and money?
On the contrary, she, if she thinks it is good, even if it is just a gadget, she will have to give it to him. Just like the flowers she sent before... there is no shortage of flowers or fish in the palace. But if she has such details, she will also think of him...
Xiao Yi closed the box and said, "Send it to the imperial kitchen. I'll cook it today. If there is anyone who can still live, I'll keep it in the jar."
Palace people: "????"
Could they have heard something wrong?
What the emperor said is, if you cook and eat, you still have to find a vase to keep it. The emperor was angry? Unexpectedly, it was ridiculous?
Xiao Yi opened another box and saw that the things inside were very beautiful and shining, but they looked a little strange. Xiao Yi suddenly thought of Eunuch Zhao and said that the girl went to visit several cosmetic shops today.
Is this...rouge powder?
Xiao Yi picked up a box casually and opened it to see, it was true.
She really doesn't hide her own personalities.
Half of everything...
Xiao Yi said: "Send Yan Xitang to put it on."
The palace maid responded and was about to reach out to get it, but Xiao Yi suddenly said, "Change a box and put it in Duobao's grid."
Although the palace maid was confused, she still lowered her head and responded: "Yes."
Xiao Yi just asked the guard: "Is the girl having fun today?"
The guard honestly replied: "Miss is very happy today."
"I'm very happy?" Xiao Yi repeated these four words quietly. His voice was slightly deeper, making people feel chilled unconsciously.
The guards were confused and didn't know whether they were saying the wrong thing.
"Go back, continue to protect Miss Yang." Xiao Yi said in a deep voice in a flash.
"Yes." The guard stood up and left.
I thought to myself, I should have said nothing wrong, right? It should be fine, right? Well, it must be.
...
Yang Yaoer caught fish, saw enough of the lake and heard enough of the joy of silk and bamboo. She finally couldn't stop her sleepiness.
She held Harusa's hand tiredly.
Seeing this, Chunsha asked, "Miss is tired? Let's go back?"
The girl from the Li family also hurriedly said, "If the girl likes her, we will go out for fun tomorrow."
Yang Yaoer nodded and went downstairs.
They quickly evacuated from the boat, got on the Li family's carriage, and left first.
Xiao Guanghe was still staying on the boat to play, but when Yang Yaoer left, he stared at his back for a few more times.
Meng Xuan didn't follow her, so she went to find her brother, and then sent someone around her to inquire where the guard was holding the box.
Meng Xuan found her brother on the second floor. When the eldest son of the Meng family saw that she was coming, he stopped drinking. He pushed open the cup and went to the railing to talk to Meng Xuan.
To be continued...
