Difficulty concubine

Chapter 171

The sun was hanging high in the sky, and a flat-covered carriage drove slowly at the rear corner gate of Prince Yu's mansion. A woman got out of the carriage, and brought a half-sized maidservant with her. The little maid knocked on the door gently, and a servant walked out of it. After a while of whispering, the woman and the servant entered the palace with the servant.

As the female shopkeeper of one of the top silver houses in Kyoto, Chen Wan asked herself that she had seen many noble ladies and daughters of famous families, and had been amazed by many beauties, but this side concubine Wei made her feel that all the beauties she had seen before were successful It's a vulgar powder.

"Ok?"

An inquiring hum brought Chen Wan back to her senses, her heart sank, she squeezed a cold sweat secretly, straightened her expression, bent down quickly, and said respectfully: "Ms. Chen has seen Concubine Wei. .”

"Get up!" Jiao Niang's voice was crisp and clear, she leaned lazily on the rosewood inlaid marble chair, her left elbow rested on the armrest, and her forehead was propped up.

Chen Wan stood up, explained the purpose of her visit, then opened a huanghuali wooden box, and said with compliments: "The lady got the order early in the morning, so she packed up some eye-catching jewelry for you to see, although it is not as good as The luxury created by skilled craftsmen in your house is better than a little bit of exquisiteness, please take a look."

Jiao Niang casually glanced at it, and found that the yellow rosewood box was divided into three layers, the bottom layer was neatly placed with pure gold headdresses, the middle layer was inlaid with pearls, and the top layer was inlaid with emeralds. , but as Chen Wan said, these head ornaments are not very luxurious, but they are all delicate and delicate things.

Seeing that Jiaoniang's gaze stayed on the pearl headdress a few more times, Chen Wan hurriedly stepped forward and took two steps, handed the box to a well-dressed maid standing beside Jiaoniang, and then returned to her original position .

Picking up one of the hairpins, he sized it up, with a smile in his eyes, and said, "It's pretty good that Jin Kun has a begonia hairpin."

"You really have good eyesight. To tell you the truth, the beads on this hairpin were found by a merchant in Nanyang. It's a pity that there are only three of them. I originally wanted to directly inlay them with gold to make the stamens, but the rare luster of these beads It is so soft and round, but I was reluctant to part with it for a while, but finally the craftsman came up with the idea to inlay this bead with polished pearl shells, so it complements each other." Chen Wan said with a smile: "It is the first time I have seen this hairpin. If it is not for you In the house, the young woman is still reluctant to take it out."

Chen Wan kept saying "on your house" as if Jiao Niang was the head mother of Prince Yu's mansion, even Jiao Niang couldn't help but deepened her smile, nodded and said, "Let's keep this one!" Then, he glanced a few more times, pointed his fingers casually, and left a few more, just to let Chen Wan open another box.

Inside the box were some earrings and two jade bracelets, the jade bracelets were green and translucent, full of water, but Jiao Niang didn't try them on, so she kept them, and then said with a smile to Jin Bao: Some earrings inside are not bad, you guys have never added any new jewelry when you came to the palace, so today, each of you will pick a pair."
