Chapter 180 Simple

Qiao Niannian didn't care.

"It doesn't matter, I want this thing, you bid!"

The shopkeeper hesitated for a moment. Anyway, he bought it and it was of no use. It was just for freshness.

This thing is in the hands of a Persian, and it is said that it can produce diamonds.

He only knew about jade, but he didn't know what diamonds were.

I just wanted to buy it and take a look.

Now that Qiao Niannian liked it, the shopkeeper simply added fifty taels of silver to the original amount.

"Two hundred and eighty taels of silver, I bought this from the Persians. The journey is long, so the price is naturally high."

Qiao Niannian didn't think about the price. She just felt that the stone in front of her was rich in aura and very attractive.

There should be some good stuff in here, so I wanted to buy it.

Qiao Muyu looked at the big stone and was speechless.

What kind of stone costs two hundred and eighty taels of silver.

He coaxed Qiao Niannian: "Little sister, would you like to look at other jewelry, such as this jade pendant, it's very beautiful."

The price of that jade pendant is not lower than that of stone.

He was not stingy and unwilling to spend money on his little sister, but he felt that spending two hundred and eighty taels of silver to buy a stone was really stupid.

Qiao Niannian stubbornly wanted the stone.

Qiao Beichen took another look at Gao Qingqing and saw that Gao Qingqing's expression immediately dropped when he heard that his little sister asked for a stone.

He was a little unhappy.

My little sister's purchase of a stone has nothing to do with Gao Qingqing. Why does she have the right to be unhappy?

The more unhappy Gao Qingqing becomes, the more he wants his second brother to pay.

Qiao Beichen jumped out deliberately and touched his wallet: "Little sister, take it if you like. Third brother will buy it for you. Third brother is rich."

After saying that, he looked at the shopkeeper beside him.

"Give the stone to my little sister."

The shopkeeper immediately responded and stepped forward to load the big stone for Qiao Niannian.

When Gao Qingqing saw that it was Qiao Beichen who wanted to pay, her expression immediately improved a lot. At the same time, she felt a little jealous of Qiao Niannian.

Why did she have to spend a tael of silver when she was little? Every time she went out and encountered beautiful clothes and jewelry, she would carefully ask her mother if she could buy them.

And Qiao Niannian spent more than two hundred taels of silver to buy a big stone, but someone actually pampered her and she could buy it as she pleased.

Before the jealousy in Gao Qingqing's eyes dissipated, Qiao Muyu pulled Qiao Beichen aside.

"Whatever happens to you, I told you to buy it for my little sister. We want this stone."

Qiao Beichen wanted to refute, but Qiao Muyu glared over. Qiao Beichen curled his lips and said, "Okay! I'll give it to you this time. Who told you to be my second brother!"

After Qiao Beichen finished speaking, he couldn't help but look at Gao Qingqing.

Sure enough, Gao Qingqing's face turned dark immediately.

A flash of understanding flashed in Qiao Beichen's eyes, and he touched Qiao Chuanbai beside him.

Qiao Chuanbai glanced at Qiao Beiyuan, and Qiao Beichen motioned him to look towards Gao Qingqing. When he looked over, he saw Gao Qingqing's face was dark.

His eyes deepened.

Even though Gao Qingqing is the second child's favorite, if Gao Qingqing dares to do anything to the little girl, he will drive the second child out of the Hou Mansion together.

Qiao Muyu didn't know what his eldest brother was thinking. He was still happy that he had outdone his third brother.

Naturally, he cannot be compared with his younger brother.

Qiao Muyu asked the shopkeeper to put out the beautiful jewelry in the store for Qiao Niannian to choose from. Gao Qingqing's face turned green when she looked at Qiao Muyu, who was devoted to taking care of her sister.

It took Qiao Muyu a while to react, and he looked at Gao Qingqing and asked her to choose too.

Gao Qingqing's expression improved and she scratched the jewelry.

She thinks this one looks good, that one looks good too, she wants all of these things.

Finally, Gao Qingqing chose a set of fine jade jewelry worth two hundred taels of silver.

The shopkeeper was used to meeting high-ranking officials, and when he saw that Gao Qingqing was someone who had never seen the world and didn't understand jewelry at all, he finally chose the cheapest set.

But the shopkeeper was also a smart man, and he immediately started to praise with a smile.

"This lady is really discerning. This jewelry is in excellent condition, and this is the only set. I have always regarded it as the treasure of the store, but I didn't expect that the lady took a fancy to it."

Gao Qingqing took it seriously and felt that the shopkeeper was quite discerning, and she thought the jadeite was really good.

Although the stone is not as valuable as Qiao Niannian's, she is much more discerning than Qiao Niannian.

Qiao Niannian spent two hundred and eighty taels of silver to buy a stone, but it was of no use at all.

Gao Qingqing didn't know how to hide her emotions, and both Qiao Chuanbai and Qiao Beichen could sense her hostility towards Qiao Niannian.

Only Qiao Muyu looked at his sister stupidly, then at Gao Qingqing, his eyes full of happiness.

In addition to jewelry, Qiao Muyu took Gao Qingqing to buy some clothes, which were all styles from the capital. Gao Qingqing was very happy.

The things in Qiao Niannian's house were all pieces of cloth given by the emperor, which were sewn by Huo's skilled embroiderers.

It was much better than the clothes in the store, so she didn't buy it.

After buying a bunch of things, she returned to the Hou Mansion and got off the carriage. Gao Qingqing got off the carriage and looked at the tall and imposing Hou Mansion with a twinkling light in her eyes.

Stepping into the Hou Mansion, there is a small road with flowers and plants on both sides. After passing through the arch, this is considered to be the official entry into the Hou Mansion.

Gao Qingqing was deeply shocked when she looked at the vast courtyard and the servants everywhere.

She had never seen such a beautiful yard. In the future, this would be her home, and that would be great.

Gao Qingqing looked extremely excited. Qiao Beichen didn't expect that his second brother would fall in love with such a short-sighted woman.

But he didn't say much and let his second brother hit the wall. After all, he only knew how painful it was after he hit it himself.

Qiao Beichen reached out to touch Qiao Niannian's head, but was slapped away by the elder brother next to him.

Afterwards, Qiao Chuanbai led Qiao Niannian away.

Qiao Beichen was so angry that if his martial arts weren't as good as Qiao Chuanbai's, he would have wanted to snatch his little sister back.

Qiao Niannian returned to the courtyard, and Qiao Chuanbai respectfully offered incense to the ancestor before leaving.

This is the habit of the Qiao family. Every day, everyone must offer a stick of incense to the ancestor.

Led by the maid, Qiao Muyu and Gao Qingqing came to the cleared yard. After the maid brought him there, she pointed the two maids to Gao Qingqing, and they left.

This made Gao Qingqing very happy. She turned around and looked at Qiao Muyu with a gentle voice.

"Mu Yu, thank you, why don't you go in and have a cup of tea!"

Qiao Muyu was about to agree when he suddenly remembered what his mother had said before. If you like Gao Qingqing, you must not ruin Gao Qingqing's reputation.

Although he is now in the Marquis Mansion, he is intimidating, and the girl he likes cannot be wronged in the slightest.

Qiao Muyu smiled tenderly: "No, you have worked hard on the journey. Go back and rest quickly! If you need anything, just tell the maid."

Gao Qingqing was a little unhappy, but she didn't say much. Anyway, she was already living in the Hou Mansion, and she had a long time to come.

Thinking of this, Gao Qingqing showed a caring and gentle smile on her face.

"Mu Yu, also go to bed early. You are working harder for me than me."

Gao Qingqing looked at Qiao Muyu with shy and admiring eyes, innocent and simple.
