Slowly Deep Love

The next morning, Yue Weiwei took the earring design and asked Madam Li: "Madam, do you know where there are skilled craftsmen?"

Madam Li looked at the scroll intently and exclaimed, "How beautiful! This must have been painted by the young lady."

He could not stop praising her, but in his heart he could not believe it: the style of painting had changed so much!

Yue Weiwei nodded with a bit of pride and said, "I drew it. How is it? Will it look beautiful on Miss San?"

Nanny Li felt warm in her heart and turned to look at her, with many scenes floating in her mind.

Climbing a tree, lying in a pile of pajamas, vomiting, performing a man's ritual...

These little bits and pieces, the twists and turns, and the expression of true feelings are so real.

Nanny Li was touched by the child's kindness!

"Beautiful! Of course it's beautiful! The young lady draws beautifully, and the third young lady is beautiful. It's a match made in heaven!"

Yue smiled and said, "Madame Li, you have such a sweet mouth!"

"I am telling the truth. Madam Ming has worked with Luoqi's shop to make jewelry several times. The old craftsman named Luo Bo has excellent skills. I am going to find him with the scroll. Miss, please wait patiently."

Yue Weiwei felt very relieved when she saw Nanny Li's excited look. Preparing a gift for the Third Miss not only made her happy, but also made Nanny Li happy.

Double the joy!

She sat in the pavilion drinking tea and eating fruit, hoping that Nanny Li would come back soon.

Nanny Li was carrying a brocade box and hurriedly walked towards the gate of the mansion, where she happened to meet Li Hengtu.

He took the initiative to strike up a conversation and asked, "Madame Li, you are in a hurry, is there something urgent?"

"The young lady asked me to do something, and I have to do it now!"

"But is it related to this brocade box?" Li Hengtu pointed at the box and asked relentlessly.

Madam Li nodded and replied, "Yes."

"In that case, Madam Li, please go quickly!"

Li Hengtu watched her walk away and gave a look to his personal bodyguard Chaoyang. Chaoyang understood and turned away.

Nanny Li came to Rocky's shop. A child at the door enthusiastically helped her walk in. Chaoyang waited for a long time before he saw Nanny Li come out, and the brocade box in her hand was gone.

After Nanny Li walked away, Chaoyang strode into Rocky's shop to find out the news.

When Nanny Li returned to Qingxiang Pavilion, Yue Weiwei was still sitting in the pavilion. She wanted to see Nanny Li first and hear her tell her about the whereabouts of the earrings.

Yue Weiwei ran to the door, grabbed Li Ma's hand and asked, "What did Luo Bo say?"

"Look how anxious the young lady is. Luo Bo praised her for her beauty and kindness, and her ingenuity in painting."

"Has he met Minglu?"

"That's right. When Madam Ming makes jewelry, she either invites Luo Bo to her house or takes her daughter to Luo Qi's shop. How could she not have seen it?"

"How long does it take to make this pair of earrings?"

"To make earrings, you need to choose the best jade. This jade is hard to come by. Luo Bo said he knows that a batch of beautiful jade will be shipped to the imperial capital soon, and he can get it. Now that we have the materials, it will be quick!"

Yue Weiwei's heart was filled with excitement when she heard this. Her design was about to become a living ornament.

Her excitement was beyond words. She pulled Nanny Li to sit in the pavilion and served her tea, water and fruit.

Nanny Li was a little at a loss. She looked at the enthusiastic child and said, "It's rare for the young lady to be so happy. I am happy too, but these were not done by the young lady..."

"I have to thank you! Mammy, you must have worked hard on this trip. Just drink some tea and eat some fruit. You're welcome!"

“Hahahaha…” Nanny Li laughed happily, louder than before, and said, “Okay, okay, old slave, have some tea.”

Chaoyang also returned to the general's mansion. He whispered in Li Hengtu's ear for a while, picked up his brush and started painting again, and finally said: "Please forgive me, my painting skills are poor and it is difficult for me to express the charm."

Li Hengtu looked at the painting in front of him, waved his hand, and Chaoyang retreated.

He sat down and stared at the distorted painting in a trance, trying to restore it to its original appearance.

After several attempts, Li Hengtu stood up eagerly, walked out of the house, and went to Rocky's shop with Chaoyang.

On the way back home, he took a detour to Chengji Pastry Shop and bought a piece of freshly baked date cake.

In the evening, Yue Weiwei took out a piece of paper and drew a line on it neatly. She wanted to use the method of drawing correct characters to record the waiting time.

Before going to bed, Yue Weiwei unconsciously remembered that tomorrow was a special day, and nervousness instantly replaced the excitement of the day.

Full of contradictions and worries, she lay on the bed, forcing herself to think about the design of the earrings, to imagine what the earrings would look like after they were made, and to feel how great the surprise would be when she saw the earrings for the first time.

……

There will be lectures at Xueshan Hall today.

Yue Weiwei sat up and the first thing she thought of was the thing that had put her in such a predicament.

Her body had been tense since she got up in the morning, and she found it difficult to relax. She waited for noon as if she was facing a trial.

When the sun was high in the sky, Yue Weiwei sent away the people around her again. After much hesitation, she decided to end things with her senior.

We will have a chance to meet each other in the future, and it's really shameful to do it secretly now.

Yue Weiwei lay against the wall and waited quietly, thinking about how to talk to the senior so that her thoughts would be clear and understandable without hurting his feelings.

"Weiwei, Weiwei..." Luo Zhuangzhou called out several times but did not attract her attention.

This girl is worried today! He looked up and saw her flower-like face and night-like eyes, which showed deep confusion and uneasiness.

Such a woman is truly a favored one of heaven, her sad face is as fragrant as pear blossoms.

Yue Weiwei was absent-minded and daydreaming. After a long time, he sighed and suddenly saw a person under the wall. He was still frightened and dodged unconsciously.

"Weiwei!" Luo Zhuangzhou called again.

She came to her senses, looked at the person in front of her clearly, and felt surprised and happy, but then turned to sadness.

Luo Zhuangzhou handed Yue Weiwei a small box and said, "Weiwei, this is a painting. I give it to you. Can it turn your sorrow into joy?"

She listened to the senior's comfort, felt satisfied, gently opened the box and took out the gift.

The scroll slowly opened, and the picture was soft and familiar: it was this wall, this pear tree, this woman, and the person under the wall.

Yue Weiwei's pupils trembled like an earthquake, tears welled up in her eyes, and the person in the painting grew larger and smaller and shook constantly.

The moment the tears fell, she quickly raised her arms and wiped away the tears with her sleeves, for fear of wetting the scroll.

Yue Weiwei laughed awkwardly, carefully rolled up the scroll, and said, "Senior, thank you for the gift you gave me. It's so meaningful."

Luo Zhuangzhou looked at Yue Weiwei, whose face was filled with tears, and kept guessing her identity.

A distant relative of the Grand Marshal's Mansion? A daughter of a poor family living under someone else's roof?

Yue Weiwei packed the scroll, patted the box gently with her hand, and held it in her arms like a treasure.

The moment I raised my eyes and looked forward, the figure in the pool water suddenly jumped into my eyes.

It turned out that there was a man by the lotus pond. He was standing next to a thick tree, looking coldly at the man and woman across the pond.

Luo Zhuangzhou noticed that Yue Weiwei's eyes were not right and immediately turned around to look.

The man turned around and hid behind a tree.

He saw nothing.

"Wei Wei, what's wrong?"

"I..." Yue Weiwei was about to speak when she saw another person walking towards her along the narrow path beside the wall.

Luo Zhuangzhou looked back and felt nervous. How come he met Li Hengan's personal bodyguard today?
