C137 (2/2)
”I think so.” Li Luo neatly tied up his hair, and used the silver pear flower hairpin to fix it back up, ”Miss, your hair looks really good no matter what you do.”
Jin Se laughed, then looked at his lips which did not have any color, and wanted to rub something on it, ”Is the blubber in the drawer, or is it new? ”And this.”
Li Luo opened the cabinet, and saw the lipstick that was given to him by Miss Lin. Jin Se then changed his mind, ”It seems that we still have to eat breakfast, we'll talk about it after we eat breakfast.”
”Yes.”
Li Luo went out again. She could go to the kitchen to get some food, then take out a pot of hot water to moisten Jin Se's hands.
”Li Luo is up too.”
Ru Chun poured out the water in the basin and coincidentally saw Ru Chun walking out the door. She smiled and greeted him, but hearing her 'unbridled' voice and the fact that the door was open, Qi Zhen thought that she had woken up.
”Coincidentally, I'm going to the kitchen too, wait for me.” Ru Chun saw Li Luo nod his head willingly and returned the pot back to its place. He quickly came out and pulled Jin Se to the kitchen.
”We have some Crystal Shrimp Dumplings today. Let's go get some quickly.”
Ru Chun was well-informed.
Jin Se heard the noise coming from outside, but she was still a little tired. She was unable to sleep last night, and woke up too early, so she laid on the table, thinking that she could at least sleep for a while. Not long later, Li Luo came in with the steaming hot dumplings.
Jin Se and Qi Zhen both liked to eat crystal shrimp dumplings. Li Luo had always remembered that she had something in her hands, so she happily placed it on the table. When she turned around, she saw Jin Se sleeping soundly on the table, so she did not disturb him.
He silently placed the things on the table and used a thick layer of cotton to keep it warm, waiting for Jin Se to wake up before doing anything else.
When Jin Se woke up, her arms were already sore from the numbing.
”Miss, why don't we go to bed and sleep for a while?” Li Luo looked at Jin Se with a pained heart, so he suggested.
”No, I don't know why I fell asleep again.”
Jin Se stood up and stretched his muscles, feeling much more comfortable.
”I took your favorite food today. Come and take a look, I'm afraid that my food will become cold.”
Li Luo removed the layer of cotton. It was still warm inside, but not as fresh as when it was just cooked.
”Do you need vinegar? I'll get you some. ” Li Luo picked up the dipped butterfly and poured some vinegar in front of Jin Se.
”Sit down and eat with me.” Jin Se first picked up a Crystal Shrimp Dumpling and placed it in front of Li Luo.
”Miss will eat first, don't worry about me.” Li Luo smiled as he scooped out another bowl of Silver Ear Lotus Seed Soup and placed it in front of Jin Se.
”Come out and buy some things with me after you finish eating.” Ever since Jin Se came back, he did not go out again. She did not understand much about the topography outside of the Zhijia family.
”If you want to buy anything, you can buy it from the host house. There's no need to go out on your own.”
Li Luo did not understand Jin Se's intentions, but when Jin Se said ”the things that a daughter needs from home,” Li Luo also said, ”Then I will accompany the lady there.”
After the two of them finished eating, they realised that the atmosphere in the Qi household today was unusually lively. Jin Se felt that the Qi household must have something going on today, either to entertain some guests or because something had happened.
”Go ask the butler.”
Jin Se asked Li Luo to go and ask the butler, who ordered the servants to sweep the courtyard clean and to return back to Li Luo.
”I heard that Master Lin's family is coming over today, so he asked us to clean up the courtyard first thing in the morning.”
The butler was all smiles, as though a good thing had happened at home. Li Luo told Jin Se everything that he had said, and Jin Se merely replied, ”So that's how it is, let's go.”
Jin Se and Li Luo passed through a crowd of people and reached the main entrance, which became a little quieter.
”I really don't know why there's such a big commotion.”
