When the young lady’s girl comes to borrow something, Kumquat can block it, and she is not afraid even if the young lady comes. But Mrs. Li comes in person and brings gifts. Mrs. Li is the eldest in the Li family, who dares to disobey?
What should she do?
Jin Jue raised her head and stabilized the box in her hand: "The eldest lady is not here, so I can't make the decision. When the eldest lady comes back, Mother Gu will ask again."
Li Minglou doesn't allow people to enter the courtyard. When she comes back, they are afraid that they won't even be able to enter the courtyard.
Mother Gu's round face smiled brightly: "It will be night when the eldest lady comes back, so I don't want to disturb you when you come in and out. I will take it first, and when the eldest lady comes back, I will stand outside the door and talk."
How could a servant girl who had grown up from a handyman to a housekeeper step by step be stopped by a little girl? She raised her feet and moved slightly, as if she were giving orders. The three servant women behind her were holding their shoulders, just waiting to be followed.
Jin Jue turned around and jumped into the courtyard gate. The door bolt rang twice and more than once.
The little girl is not as experienced as the lady in charge, but she has brisk and agile skills.
Mother Gu's feet had just landed, and the door was already closed in front of her. The smile on her face froze: "Kumquat!"
The anger across the door did not scare Jin Jue: "The eldest lady does not agree, no one can take her things from here."
Outside the courtyard gate were the maids led by Mama Gu, the maids and maids at Li Minglou's side, and some who had heard the news and came to hide and watch the fun. Mama Gu was very embarrassed to be shut out like this.
The old lady is also very shameless.
Mother Gu took a deep breath and said in a soft voice: "I'm not taking the eldest lady's things, I'm borrowing them and I'll return them in three days."
Youmen Block Jinju said firmly: "No, if the eldest lady doesn't speak, no one can borrow it."
If Mother Gu is allowed to take things away like this today, Li Minglou will have a wide open door in the Li family and anyone can bully her.
Gu's mother was a little helpless: "Miss Qi will go out early tomorrow. The eldest lady is not at home now. I will tell her personally when she comes back."
"What do you want to tell me?"
The sound did not come from behind the door, but from behind. Mother Gu turned around subconsciously and was suddenly startled.
Looking past the maids and servants who were standing around to watch the excitement, there was a person wearing a black robe and holding a black umbrella under the big tree, followed by a young manservant, and behind the manservant was a car.
Li Minglou is back.
As if an eagle suddenly ambush the chickens, some people had their skirts stepped on, others tripped over their feet and let out sharp, short screams. The girls and servants who were standing quietly suddenly retreated in all directions, including the servant women beside Mother Gu.
Mama Gu instantly stood out from the crowd.
After Li Minglou's accident, he went home and entered the house and never came out again. When he went out in the past two days, the driver directly picked him up at the gate of the courtyard in his car, and took the car directly from the inner house.
Kumquats will drive away everyone in front of the door when entering or leaving.
This was the first time many people saw Li Minglou after the accident, and they were inexplicably panicked.
This is also the first time Li Minglou has seen so many people.
Li Minglou walked toward the door without panic, holding an umbrella, and the coachman Fang followed him with his eyes.
The door opened with a bang, and Jin Jue stood up and called the lady, waking up the absent-minded mother Gu.
"Miss." Mother Gu hurriedly saluted, then looked up and saw Li Minglou standing in front of her.
The black umbrella was pressed very low, and the hood covered her head, hiding her head and face inside. Only the cloth wrapped around her chin could be faintly seen. Mother Gu lowered her gaze and did not dare to look directly.
"Are you looking for me?" Li Minglou asked.
Jinjie stood next to Li Minglou with the box in his hand, saying nothing but looking at Gu's mother.
Mother Gu regained her composure and stated her intention again.
"Miss Qi is going out, and there is nothing we can do if she needs it urgently." She added apologetically, "Please take care of me, Miss."
Li Minglou said: "Jewelry? Go get it."
"Yes, Miss, jewelry..." Mother Gu wanted to say a few more nice words, but she realized halfway through her words that she agreed?
Li Minglou passed her and stepped up the steps.
Gu’s mother couldn’t help but follow her step forward and call her eldest lady.
Li Minglou stopped: "What else do you want?"
This word made Gu’s mother feel a pang in her heart, and she laughed hurriedly: “No, no, thank you, miss.” Then she pointed to the box that Kumquat was still holding in her hand, “This is the jewelry that the old lady liked when she was young.
It is most suitable for young ladies at this age."
Li Minglou hummed and thanked him and walked through the door.
Jin Jue stood in front of the door and looked at Mama Gu with a calm expression, as if nothing had happened before: "Mom Gu, wait a moment, I'll get it for you."
Hundreds of bead chains, as if carved from a mold, were wound three times and hung down on the goose-yellow clothes. Not only was the color not submerged, but it shone brightly, making the whole person brighten up.
The two girls held the big bronze mirror with smiles. Li Mingqi smiled sweetly at the pretty and pretty girl in the mirror.
"Miss Qi is so beautiful." The girls surrounding her all praised her.
Li Mingqi turned around and looked at the bed with a shy look, and called her grandmother softly.
Mrs. Li said with a straight face: "Are you satisfied?"
Li Mingqi was not afraid of her expression. He rushed over and hugged her arm with a smile: "Satisfied."
Mrs. Li shook her arm: "Don't twist it on me."
Li Mingqi twisted even harder, and Mrs. Li was helpless at being pestered: "Okay, okay, go pack your things and go to bed early. You have to get up early tomorrow. Don't make your eyes blue and embarrassing."
Li Mingqi sat on the bed: "I sleep with my grandmother."
Mrs. Li sighed: "You are already thirteen years old and you still sleep with me. You are not shy."
"One hundred and thirty years old is also my grandmother's granddaughter." Li Mingqi clung to Mrs. Li's body and became intimate.
The girls and servants on both sides started laughing, and Mrs. Li couldn't hold back her laughter. She looked at Mrs. Wang who was standing aside and said, "You have raised a good daughter."
Mrs. Wang looked ashamed: "It's my daughter-in-law who didn't teach me well. Thank you so much, mother."
Mrs. Li glanced at the beaded string worn by Li Mingqi: "I want to thank Xian'er."
Mrs. Wang said gratefully: "Yes, my wife will go to express her gratitude in person."
Mrs. Li stretched out her hand to poke Li Mingqi's forehead: "And you, when we get to your grandfather's house, we will get something good for your sister Xian'er to keep."
Li Mingqi nodded obediently and said yes.
Mrs. Li did not let Li Mingqi live here. Wang had many things to do and resigned.
Li Mingran turned to Li Mingqi, reached out and pinched the string of beads: "Show me."
Li Mingqi puffed up her small breasts for her to see.
"It's even better than your previous one." Li Mingran commented with a very understanding look.
It doesn't sound very happy if one's own is not as good as others', but it is a happy thing to be able to wear other people's no matter how good they are, Li Mingqi smiled.
Li Minghua didn't care about the quality of the beads, he was thinking about other things: "I didn't expect grandma to borrow beads from Xian'er for you."
Not only did she not blame Li Mingqi's girl for her rudeness, nor the arrogance of Li Mingqi's request, but she personally came forward.
Li Mingqi said: "Grandma loves me. It's not a big deal. It's just a string of beads. She doesn't need it now."
There is no need for the little girl to use a strong tone on these words now.
Li Mingran understood and laughed: "Many people saw the eldest lady today. She was wrapped so thickly and covered with an umbrella. It looked scary."
Li Minghua is not as shallow as a child: "She used to be scary when she wasn't like this, and there was nothing funny about her."
In the past, when Li Minglou appeared in front of people with a god-like appearance, everyone was too afraid to look directly at him.
Li Mingqi understood what she meant, stroked the beads with her hand and smiled: "I said, now Li Minglou is just like us."
This was her test, and the result was as she expected.
