happy match
Chapter 71 Undercurrent
Ye Qinglan responded one by one with a smile, but she didn't go to the bottom of her heart at all.
Don't look at Ye Qingning's generosity, if she really dresses up carefully to show off, she won't be able to follow her out of the house in the future.It's better to be a little more interesting and low-key, just be a little follower and join in the fun.
What Ye Qinglan didn't expect was that Mrs. Jiang also attached great importance to this matter.
When paying her respects the next day, Mrs. Jiang casually mentioned this matter: "The British government has sent a post, and there will be a flower viewing banquet in a few days. At that time, you two will take the children to relax Bar!"
The so-called you two, of course, refers to the daughter-in-law Zheng and Li.
Both Zheng Shi and Li Shi agreed with a smile.Especially Li Shi, with a particularly bright smile.
Zheng glanced at Li from the corner of her eye, but secretly hummed in her heart.The British government is the ancestral home of her husband Ye Chengren's direct relatives, so it is only natural for her to go.But why did Mrs. Li follow her?
Jiang's eccentricity is too obvious!
Thinking so, Mrs. Zheng didn't reveal anything on her face, and even took the initiative to discuss specific matters with Mrs. Jiang: "The flower viewing banquet in the British government is held every year, and this year is probably no exception. Although it is to bring children Let's go out and see, but we can't lose the face of our house. While there are still days to go, why don't we make some new clothes for Sister Ning and the others and buy some jewelry."
Although Mrs. Zheng has already taken over the affairs of the mansion, after all, she hasn't formally presided over Zhongfu.Always put on a face.
Jiang smiled and nodded: "You can handle these trivial matters as you see fit."
Mrs. Li took the opportunity to take over the conversation: "A few days ago, Sister Rou took a fancy to a jade hairpin in Zhenbao Pavilion. This time, I just bought it together."
Naturally, Zhenbao Pavilion is not an ordinary gold and silverware workshop, and it is well-known in the capital.The jewelry made is precious and exquisite, and the patterns are complicated. There is only one piece of each finished product, and there is no repetition.Most of the jewelry worn by the concubines in the palace was produced by Zhenbao Pavilion.The female relatives of the noble families in the capital are also flocking to it.
Of course, the jewelry price of Zhenbao Pavilion is also staggeringly expensive.An ordinary golden hairpin costs dozens of taels.The jasper hairpin that Mrs. Li mentioned was inlaid with a huge oriental bead, and the price was even more ridiculously expensive.
Zheng's eyes flashed, and he asked knowingly: "Since my brother and sister specifically mentioned this jasper hairpin, there must be something special about it!"
Mrs. Li coughed and said with a smile: "It's not that unusual, it's just that there is an oriental bead inlaid on it, which is quite eye-catching." After a pause, he said: "The price is also a little more expensive."
Slightly more expensive?I'm afraid it's not just a little bit more expensive!All the people present are knowledgeable, who doesn't know the rare and expensive Dongzhu?
Zheng groaned inwardly.Mrs. Li deliberately said this in front of Mrs. Jiang.Make it impossible for her to refuse.Is it true that she doesn't have such a good temper at all?
"Since Sister Rou likes it, it doesn't matter if it's more expensive, just buy it." Zheng said with a smile, not without accident seeing Li's eyes brighten, and then continued without haste: "But, There is a certain amount of expenses in each courtyard. This time, such an unexpected expense has been added. How should it be accounted for? I also ask my mother-in-law to show me."
He lightly threw the problem to Mrs. Jiang.
Jiang could only laugh and said: "This time the expenses are accounted for separately, so don't record them under the expenses of each court."
Zheng smiled.I nodded.Since it is entered into the account separately, it is counted as public expenditure.Just take this opportunity to buy some expensive jewelry for Ye Qingning.
Elders, you come and I fight secretly, Ye Qinglan and others naturally have no chance to intervene.
Ye Qinglan was thinking secretly, wondering if she would buy some jewelry as well.Just as she was thinking about it, she heard Zheng smiled and said: "By the way, how is Sister Lan, can you go with me?"
Ye Qinglan hurriedly responded respectfully: "Thank you, auntie, for your concern. I take medicine on time every day, and my health has improved a lot recently. If auntie doesn't mind, I would like to go out and see it too!"
Mrs. Zheng smiled and nodded: "Alright, the people from Jinbao Pavilion in Jinzhifang will come over this afternoon, don't forget to come."
Ye Qinglan responded with a look of surprise.
Seeing her like that, Ye Qingning couldn't help secretly laughing.It's really worthless, a few new clothes and a little jewelry can make me happy like this.
Jewelry is probably the temptation that all women cannot resist.When all kinds of shining golden jewelry were placed on the black velvet cloth one by one, everyone's eyes were attracted.
The big shopkeeper of Zhenbao Pavilion is a long-sleeved dancer, has dealt with women in various prefectures a lot, and is well versed in the secrets of sales promotion, pointing to one of them, and explaining its characteristics.Even Mrs. Zheng and Mrs. Li were a little moved. They looked at these exquisite jewelry carefully, secretly thinking about which ones were suitable for them to wear that day.
Ye Qingning and Ye Qingrou each occupied the best position, choosing their favorite jewelry.Ye Qingrou picked four pieces, and Ye Qingning picked six pieces.
Ye Qinglan was very tactful, she stood quietly by the side, and waited until the two cousins were almost finished, then slowly stepped forward and took a closer look.I couldn't help but secretly exclaimed.
The workmanship of these jewelry is really exquisite.She thought that the things in her jewelry box were considered high-quality, but compared with the one in front of her, it suddenly paled in comparison.Although she didn't know the price of the jewelry at this time, she could guess that the jewelry in front of her was expensive.
The question now is, which one should she choose?Do you choose what you like according to your heart, or pick some valuable ones for private collection, or choose a few inconspicuous ones in a low-key way?
Ye Qinglan's thoughts turned, she quickly made a decision, and pointed at three of them with a smile.
A hibiscus hosta, a pair of agate earrings, and a pair of beautifully carved red gold bracelets.Wearing it out will neither be rude nor eye-catching, nor will it steal the limelight from Ye Qingning and Ye Qingrou.
The little guy on the side hurriedly wrote it down.
Ye Qingning walked over to take a look, and said teasingly: "Sister Shi, you have really good eyesight." Although the color is good, the style is relatively ordinary.It's hard for her to pick out these inconspicuous pieces among several boxes of exquisite jewelry.
Ye Qinglan didn't seem to understand her ridicule, and thanked her with a smile: "Thank you for your compliment, Sixth Sister."
Ye Qingning resisted the urge to roll her eyes. Is she really stupid or just pretending to be stupid? Didn't she hear that she was mocking her?Forget it, she doesn't know how to pick, so pick out some good ones for her.
Ye Qingning didn't say much, looked down a few times, and picked out two things.
The first one is an exquisite gold hairpin, the head of which is a small phoenix, and what is even better is that the phoenix has a small bead in its mouth.I don't know what this bead is made of, it's unusually small and delicate, and it shines faintly.
The other is a wreath chrome collar.Ambilight, gorgeous and unusual.Sure enough, it was much more expensive and exquisite than Ye Qinglan's choice.
"Remember these two things too." Ye Qingning ordered, and the little boy responded with a smile.
Ye Qinglan was startled, and hurriedly said in a low voice: "Sixth sister, are these two things you picked for yourself, or for me?"
Ye Qingning rolled her eyes angrily: "Of course it's for you. I've already picked them all. Look at your vision. You can't pick anything that suits you."
"Will these be expensive?" Ye Qinglan hesitated for a moment, then whispered, "If it costs too much, I'm afraid my aunt and grandmother will be unhappy..."
Ye Qingning interrupted her disapprovingly: "What's there to be upset about. Eight younger sisters and I have chosen more than you!"
How is that the same!Ye Qingning has Zheng's backing, Ye Qingrou has Jiang's and Li's backing, no matter how much money they choose, no one will say anything.She is different...
"Thank you, Sixth Sister, for your kindness." Ye Qinglan said with a smile on her face, "I'll just pick the original ones." The most important thing in life is to be interesting.She is a helpless concubine with three bedrooms, so it's better to keep a low profile.
It was rare for Ye Qingning to be kind, but Ye Qinglan didn't expect Ye Qinglan to be ungrateful. She immediately became unhappy, and immediately turned her face down: "Forget it, I don't bother to care about you."
Ye Qinglan's nose was ashamed, her expression was a little embarrassed, but she was quite happy in her heart.Although Ye Qingning's tone was harsh and her attitude was bad, she really cared about her after all.I spent so much time on her these days, and finally saw the effect...
Mrs. Zheng has been keeping an eye on the movements of the two of them, and seeing Ye Qingning's unhappy face, she hurried over: "Ning'er, why are you so unhappy?"
Ye Qingning snorted softly: "You can ask Ten Sister."
Zheng Shi was startled and looked over.Ye Qinglan has always been smart, and she deliberately accommodates Ye Qingning, the two have always gotten along well.What's going on today?
Ye Qinglan smiled a little awkwardly, and explained in a low voice: "I've already picked out jewelry, and Sixth Sister specially picked out two pieces for me. I thought it was too much, so I said no. No wonder Sixth Sister is angry... ..."
How shrewd and sophisticated Mrs. Zheng was, she guessed what was going on as soon as she heard the voice.Casually lowered his head to glance at it, and it was even more clear in his heart.
Ye Qingning has always been willful and rarely thinks of others.It was rare for him to take the initiative and choose two expensive and exquisite jewelry for Ye Qinglan, but he didn't expect Ye Qinglan to politely refuse.This is why I became angry from embarrassment!
Ye Qinglan can't be blamed for this matter, she is just a third-bedroom concubine, and she was able to stand here and choose jewelry together because of Ye Qingning's honor.If you are too greedy, you will inevitably attract criticism from others, so it is better to choose some inconspicuous jewelry.Now that I think about it, this girl is very transparent...
"Okay, since Ning'er picked it for you, don't refuse." Zheng said with a smile: "There will be many opportunities to meet guests when you go out of the house in the future. You must have some decent jewelry."
These words came from Zheng's mouth, and the weight is completely different.
Ye Qinglan responded flattered, and then smiled and apologized to Ye Qingning: "Sixth Sister has a lot, so don't worry about it like a little sister. When the day of the flower viewing feast comes, I will definitely wear the jewelry that Sixth Sister specially picked, Make a good show of yourself."
Ye Qingning laughed out loud at being teased.This tenth sister is really cheap and good-looking! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
