Chapter 144 Unlocking the Bell (16)
"Why does Ms. Du keep letting Ms. Jianlan carry the consultation box?" Liu Lian'an asked, "If the carriage arrives later, just go to the teahouse to get it."

"It's fine to have the consultation box at home, and you can't leave yourself outside." Du Yingran said with a light smile, "This is an unwritten rule of our Du family. Dad told me after he built the consultation box for me."

In the afternoon of autumn, the sky is full of desolate warmth. There is no biting cold wind today. Relying on this warmth, people feel warm and tired in their hearts.Du Yingran walked very slowly. Although Liu Lian'an was by her side, her good mood was not ruined. She never thought that Miss Liu next to her would want to be Meng Shuzhi's concubine. so ridiculous?
When Du Yingran was in a good mood, she walked with the soles of her feet on the ground, as if she was dancing to the rhythm of the breeze. The breeze bulged her sleeves, and Liu Lian'an was a step slower than Du Yingran, and she actually felt a swaying beauty.

"Since you've come here, sister Du will accompany me to pick up the jewelry." Liu Lian'an said with a smile, pointing to the jewelry shop beside her, and said.

"Okay." Du Yingran raised her eyebrows.

"Before my grandmother gave me an oriental bead, I went here to make jewelry." This jewelry shop called Xuanhua Pavilion is elegantly decorated, with a faint fragrance of chrysanthemums in the air. As they walked, a servant girl opened the curtain to let the two of them in. Du should have known that the fragrance just now came from this inner room.There are potted chrysanthemums planted by the window, and inside the room are several square tables of pineapple wood and chairs for grand masters, and the chairs are covered with cushions with red and silver borders.A girl was sitting near the window, looking at the booklet in her hand, and a maid wearing a red flower half-arm was sitting beside her, talking in a low voice.

The afternoon sun shone on the two of them, and the celadon cups on the coffee table were filled with the scent of tea.The room was in a peaceful and peaceful atmosphere. Du Yingran saw a wooden plaque tied around the waist of the half-armed servant girl, and thought of the waist plaque on the girl Tingfeng of the Meng Mansion. This must be the servant girl's name.

Hearing Liu Lian'an's intention, after waiting for a while, a maid brought a sandalwood box, opened the box, and Du Yingran saw a blue bird holding a bead in its mouth, and the blue bird's eyes were inlaid with small obsidian, and the light flickered. Circulation, adding a lively atmosphere to the blue bird, "It's really good."

The servant girl standing on one side smiled and said, "Look at this girl, she is the first one back. Dare I ask you your name?"

"My surname is Du." Du Yingran said, looking at Yan Yi on her waist card, "Miss Yan Yi, please sit down."

Yan Yi smiled and looked at the wooden plaque on his waist, and said, "This is exactly my name." She pulled back her skirt and sat on the soft stool beside her, "Miss Liu's jewelry is custom-made, if you get something For rare jewelry, when you come to our store, you can draw a pattern first, and if the girl is satisfied, you can make it according to the pattern. Of course, there are also ready-made patterns in the store, and they are all made into a booklet. If the girl is interested, you can also choose a ready-made shape .”

Liu Lian'an said with a smile: "The styles in this jewelry shop are exquisite. If you add ten taels of silver to the original price, you will only make three of the selected patterns. If you add 30 taels, you will not make this pattern again." .So I don’t worry about wearing the same jewelry as someone else, but it’s embarrassing.”

Du Yingran, people from the Meng Mansion will go to the bookstore to look for her, shook her head, and said, "If I really see the pattern on the booklet, I'm afraid I won't be able to walk." She smiled at Miss Yanyi, "I have something to do. , I won’t read it.” After speaking, he stood up from the soft stool and walked outside.
