Chapter 22: Folding Flowers

Cedar was blocked by Han Mei's words and could not answer them.

I had to grit my teeth and make a creaking sound.

Ding Jingzhu was approaching the side, frightened by the sound, and quickly found an excuse to go back to her house.

But he was stopped by Nan Rong outside the door.

Nan Rong is a fourteen-year-old girl with round face and crescent eyes. When she smiles, she has two cute shallow dimples. Although she is not outstanding in appearance, she has a strong affinity.

She was holding a small oil-paper bag in her hand and wanted to stuff it into Ding Jingzhu's arms.

"You came to our house and were kind enough to be a guest."

"But neither did you entertain tea nor did you treat each other well, so you might as well give it a joke."

Ding Jingzhu knew that Nan Rong was kind-hearted and smiled: "You're welcome, maybe it's okay."

Nan Rong insisted on stuffing the oily paper bag to Ding Jingzhu and said:

"This is the Dahongpao that the old lady gave me. I can't get used to drinking it myself. There are still some left. You can take it back."

Seeing that this was Nan Rong's kindness, Ding Jingzhu refused and had to accept it.

Compared to Nan Rong's versatile temperament, Xuesong seems a little ignorant of the times. She brought her things to visit her for half a day, but she didn't raise her eyelids.

Listening to the argument between cedar and Hanmei came from inside the house, I seemed to be getting more angry.

But it is difficult to comment on other people's lawsuits in their houses.

After chatting with Nan Rongqian for a few words, Ding Jingzhu returned to her house.

In the next two days, Ding Jingzhu finished her errands meticulously with the errands of serving flowers and plants and taking care of birds alone.

Ding Jingzhu, who has worked in the workplace, knows that doing well may not be good, but doing poorly is definitely bad. She is careful to serve the two thrushes and add some food at any time.

In order to avoid them becoming cold in this weather, they specially used good cotton to make a nest for them.

On that day, Ding Jingzhu was doing needlework in the corridor. Yuye came out of the house and looked at it. She found that Cedar was still recuperating due to illness.

Waving to let Ding Jingzhu go over, he instructed:

"The flowers in the old lady's house are about to be replaced. You can find some elegant plum blossoms."

Ding Jingzhu quickly responded, and walked out of Anshoutang with the flower basket and sickle scissors on the side.

This inner garden in Qin Mansion has extraordinary landscapes, rockery, water and stones, and flowers and trees.

Being locked up in Anshou Hall all day long, Ding Jingzhu took advantage of the opportunity to find plum blossoms and felt relieved.

It was January, and although it was still a bit cold in spring, besides the plum blossoms, pear blossoms and forsythia blossoms bloomed.

In addition to breaking many plum blossom branches with good quality, Ding Jingzhu also cut a small number of pear branches.

When I was hunching my body and chopping the forsythia vines covered with broken yellow flowers on the ground, a sound came from behind me.

"Where did the little flower thief come from?"

Looking back, it was Qin Ersi, a girl who looked at her with a smile on her face. In addition, there was a girl wearing rose-browed and purple-red rosy clothes.

Ding Jingzhu hurriedly said, "I have met two girls."

Qin Ersi said with a smile: "My sister and I came to the garden to enjoy the flowers, but we saw that the good pear tree was missing some branches."

"I have been looking for it all the way, but I didn't expect it to be a little maid like you."

Ding Jingzhu realized at this time that the girl in purple was originally the seventh girl Qin Erming, and the only child of the third wife Qi.

Thinking in his heart, Ding Jingzhu replied: "Girls, I'll forgive me. The flowers in Anshou Hall need to be replaced, so I came to the garden to break flowers."

Qin Ersi covered his face and smiled, "You are just a new arrival in the grandmother's courtyard."

Ding Jingzhu replied, "Yes, my maid's name is Jingzhu, and it will take only three days to come to the old lady's courtyard."

Qin Ersi smiled and said, "You little maid is too honest. There are only fifteen or sixteen branches in your grandmother's house. I'm afraid there are about thirty branches in your flower basket."

Ding Jingzhu then realized that she had picked a little more and was embarrassed and at a loss.

But Qin Ersi led Qin Erming toward Anshoutang, turned around and blinked, signaling Ding Jingzhu to follow:

"I'd better go see my grandmother and ask for some flowers. Her flower clusters can score one point."

Ding Jingzhu hurriedly followed the maids Tao Ran and Yasu, whom they were carrying, and the five of them returned to Anshoutang together.

When they arrived at Anshoutang, Qin Ersi took Qin Erming to the inner room where the old lady Qin was located with great enthusiasm.

Ding Jingzhu was a little at a loss when she put down the flower basket, but after a quarter of an hour, the jade leaves came out.

"Take this basket of flowers with you, the old lady wants to see you."

This is the second time Ding Jingzhu meets the boss and Mrs. Qin.

Compared to the slightly majestic moment when they first met, Old Mrs. Qin was obviously a little kinder this time.

When Ding Jingzhu entered, she was sitting on the soft couch, hugging Qin Erming in her arms, and leaning over to listen to Qin Ersi talking beside her.

Qin Ersi smiled and said with a smile: "This girl didn't know the interesting things about tasting tea and enjoying flowers, but she just picked many flowers, which disturbed my interest in tasting flowers."

"But when I found her, I found that she picked excellent flowers, which was the essence of a tree."

"I originally wanted to blame her, but I also thought that she was kind to my grandmother, so I came to my grandmother with shamelessness to ask for money."

Old Mrs. Qin laughed, lit up Qin Ersi's nose and said, "You girl, you've told you all the good and bad things."

"If you like it, I will ask someone to go to the garden to pick flowers for you every day."

Qin Ersi shook his head and smiled, "It's not appropriate, it's less wild."

Old Mrs. Qin was overjoyed: "How could you learn the tricky words?"

Qin Ersi said with a longing look on his face: "Of course I'm with the third uncle. The third uncle seems to have some legacy of a gentleman, and he is handsome and talented."

"I am a couple with my third aunt again. Si Er often thought that it would be great if my father could do this."

"I'm a little envious of Sister Seven."

As he said that, he looked at Qin Erming who was in the arms of the old lady Qin. The little girl was ignorantly stuffing fruits to eat.

However, Qin Ersi had never noticed that the old lady Qin's face suddenly became gloomy, as if she was unwilling to mention her son.

Seeing that the third girl was unintentionally poked the old lady's lung tube, Yuye hurried forward and said:

"Old lady, this is the real girl. She picked many branches, which disturbed the elegant pleasures of the third and seventh girls."

Ding Jingzhu hurriedly stepped forward and bowed with the flower basket: "I have met the old lady."

Old Mrs. Qin turned her attention back to the many flower branches that Ding Jingzhu was holding, and said with a gentle expression: "These flower branches are staggered, but they are good."

Then he got up in person, took a white pear blossom, and while pruning it, he guided Qin Ersi to start flower art.

"Sister Si'er is here, and my grandmother will tell you about this flower arrangement."

"The flower arrangement depends entirely on your own thoughts to match these many flower branches."

"We must be different in height, sparse and dense, light at the top and heavy at the bottom."

Qin Ersi quickly mastered this key point and paired it with a flower scene.

Seeing Qin Ersi make a flowery scene, Old Mrs. Qin finally gave her advice:
