Ugly peasant girl in space

Chapter 286 Learning Etiquette (2)
In the capital, Qingli has seen the world. Although she hasn't really seen the royal style of golden branches and jade leaves, she has also met a few decent official ladies. The impression is not bad, more polite than she imagined, at least even They look down on her and won't show it, everyone is an actor, and it's not like there are girls with true temperament, that is, they treat her a little colder.

The jewelry shop of the Yun family on the East Street should be a place frequented by the nobles of the whole Zhou Dynasty. If it is special, it is nothing more than better craftsmanship and more styles. With a strong background and expensive jewelry, it is really difficult not to earn money. No wonder the Yun family has survived the vicissitudes of dynasties.

The official ladies in the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty are much more mature than those in Mojia Village. It is simply incomparable. Generally, seven-year-old girls will comb their hair into a small bun, wear various hairpins, and smear on their faces. Balm and powder, for those who love beauty, they will also put on lip gloss. The seven or eight-year-old girl in Mojia Village is still wearing a bun, looking childish.

Right now, Qingli is wandering around the jewelry store in Yun’s family called Duobao Pavilion. The store’s clerk received a message from Young Master Yun to ask Qingli to go directly to the third floor. Good jewelry needs to be tailor-made, which is definitely worth it People envy you, even if you are a lady from a first- and second-rank official family, you may not have this opportunity, but the jewelry displayed in the lobby on the first floor is also unusual. Just ask a piece of ordinary nobile inlaid with small gemstones, it will cost hundreds of dollars. It's better to grab two coins.

"It's not that Miss Ben can't afford money, so she just uses these ordinary things to fool her? Aren't you afraid of ruining the Yun family's name?"

The young lady who was talking to the clerk in the corner was followed by several maidservants. Her identity was not simple. She was wearing a black gold cloud embroidered shirt and a soft silver blue lily skirt. He was very dissatisfied with the perfunctory of the man.

"Miss Li, let's go up."

Nanny Yu looked at the situation downstairs, there was going to be a verbal lawsuit, one thing more than one thing, it's better not to see it.

"Ok."

Qingli nodded, obviously thinking the same way, she always felt that her current identity was not confident enough, and everything was taken care of by Chunyu Motou's mother, otherwise, this kind of jewelry shop should not be able to enter, how could it be possible? Accompanied by a dedicated buddy.

"Wait!"

The lady downstairs saw that Qingli and others were about to go upstairs, so she became anxious. This Duobao Pavilion is not a place for ordinary people, and the second floor is dedicated to entertaining ladies with high grades. This girl brought a Can the old mother and a maid go upstairs?Why!
"Miss Zhao, do you have any orders?"

The guy who followed Qingli and the others turned his head, "If there is no one, I will accompany this lady to the third floor to order jewelry."

This Miss Zhao is exactly the lady of Jingzhao Yin's family who got into a dispute with Miss Ruan's family servant, Zhao Wanqing, whose father is in charge of the city defense of the entire capital, and is deeply trusted by the Holy One, although his official position is not that high. Gao, but has real power, and usually walks sideways among the ladies of the official family in the capital, even the lady of the household servant's family is ignored.

"What? The third floor?"

Zhao Wanqing opened her mouth wide. Seeing that this little girl was about the same age as her, how could she go to the third floor? The guests there were all the dignitaries, and their faces were very ugly. They must not be relatives of the emperor, so don't She didn't care about her identity at all, "How could you go to the third floor?"

Qing Li was very unhappy when she heard this, why can't she go to the third floor, isn't the third floor just for people?I also met a few official ladies just now, and I feel that they are gentle and polite. This one is too direct, maybe it is because of their young age.But don't all ladies have to cultivate etiquette since childhood.

"This beautiful lady, do you have any dissatisfaction with our Duobao Pavilion? Why don't you come to the third floor together."

At the corner of the second floor, stood a young man, about 20 years old, wearing a dark blue double-breasted narrow-sleeved gown, the skirt and cuffs were embroidered with Tengyunxiang pattern with royal blue silk thread, and his facial features were unmistakable. Not brilliant but with a smile like a spring breeze, it feels very comfortable.

"Oh, Miss Zhao, this is our shopkeeper Yun from Duobao Pavilion."

Meeting such a smiling tiger, Zhao Wanqing didn't have the intention to find fault, but she still had a little arrogance in her heart, and she couldn't let the unknown girl squeeze in front of her, so she took the maid and woman over Qingli, and walked upstairs quickly .

"Miss Li, she is Jing Zhaoyin's daughter, her surname is Zhao Gui and her name is Wan Qing, she is the same age as Miss, and they say that when she is 11 years old, she has the hope of becoming Simei in the capital. After all, at that time, there must be someone married in Simeili. .”

Nanny Yu is very familiar with all the ladies in the capital, so whenever she gets a chance, she will give advice to Qingli.

Zhao Wanqing?late spring?It can't be such a coincidence, can it?I heard Sister Chun'er said that she still has a few cousins ​​in the capital, all of whom are of the younger generation. It seems that there are not many Miss Zhao's family in Kyoto with this name. Could it be that this unruly lady is Sister Chun'er's cousin? There is no similarity with Sister Chun'er.

The third floor of Duobao Pavilion is like a private room in a restaurant. There are about a dozen independent rooms. The staff led Qingli and his party into a place called "Zhuyu", where there was a table and a few chairs. The staff greeted them. Qingli sat down, then turned around to serve tea and pastries.

"Miss Li, I think you are not very old, gold, silver and precious stones are too overwhelming, why not carve a magnolia flower hairpin with white jade..."

After a while, another woman in her 30s came in. She was dressed in simple and clean clothes. When she saw Qingli, she looked at her first and then offered her own suggestion. Qingli felt that this woman might be a stylist and part-time jewelry designer in modern times. .

"Our wife said that we should use the best materials for the young lady and put them in the account of the general's mansion."

Du Juan followed, and said proudly, before going out, Madam also told her, don't be afraid to spend money, just come here.

"Miss Li, there is also a jewelry booklet here, for your appreciation."

The woman turned to draw a picture, the man brought another picture album, Qing Li opened it, and saw all kinds of luxurious jewelry drawn in it, including a necklace inlaid with gemstones, which she liked very much.

The necklace is made up of dozens of gold silk balls connected in series, each gold silk ball is inlaid with ten pearls, the upper end is equipped with a gold clasp, the middle of the ring hook is inlaid with dark blue gemstones, the upper end is engraved with reindeer, and the lower end is round. The gold ornaments are inlaid with jewels such as red agate. There is a rhombus-shaped gold ornament on each side, and an oval transparent colorless pendant bead hangs from the bottom. It is so exquisite just by looking at the painting.

"Miss Li, you really have good eyesight!"

Seeing that Qingli kept looking at the necklace, the man also introduced, "This necklace is actually a treasure from the previous dynasty. It was drawn by a skilled craftsman named Zhang Qiaoshou. Executed, he did not leave too many works, but each one is a masterpiece, and our master once collected it, but later lost it for unknown reasons, leaving only this painting."
