Chapter 23
"Of course it's its preciousness and noble quality!" Concubine Shu blurted out.

"But it's just a small ornament!" The old lady pointed to the hand ornament.

Pointing to the pearl, he said, "This one was taken out of a dead clam!"

He pointed to the small shells next to him and said, "These are shells that have been ruined by others, and the ones on the other side are shells that have entered someone else's mouth."

Concubine Shu is also a sensible person, touched the gemstone in the middle, and said casually: "Then what is in the middle?"

The old lady looked at the gemstone, smiled at Concubine Shu, and said, "Your Majesty, have you seen any gemstones before? Let's not talk about the big gemstones that are offered as tribute. Does the little girl insist on such cheap and sticky things that don't know the goods?"

Concubine Shu smiled awkwardly. Indeed, the emperor did give her a lot of gifts. A tall person like her would compete with a little girl for a good and cheap thing!
"Oh, it's so disgusting, the empress actually likes it so much, then leave it to the empress!" Chu Qiao said indifferently.

That's not it, if she didn't see the old lady working so hard to make money for survival, she would watch it?

Concubine Shu's complexion is not very good. If she accepts it, it means that she is not as good as a little girl. If she does not accept it, she will be ridiculed again, saying that she can't even afford a small thing!

At this moment of dilemma, a woman came over. She was Concubine Shu's concubine sister, Li Aiqian.

"Sister, what's the matter? I'm at the jewelry store. I can't wait for you!"

Li Aiqian saw the jewelry in her sister's hand.

Li Aiqian's first impression was that it was vulgar!Vulgar!Vulgar!
Sister, when did you fall in love with this kind of thing?

He also robbed others.

When Concubine Shu chased after Li Aiqian, she realized that many people surrounded her.

Some people even pointed at themselves!

Concubine Shu repeated what happened just now to Li Aiqian.

Li Aiqian looked at Chu Qiao in embarrassment, opened a sincere smile to him, and said: "I'm sorry, sister, he didn't know the goods and robbed you. I think you like this thing so much, why don't you?" It’s good to return it to its original owner.”

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and returned the jewelry in Concubine Shu's hand to Chu Qiao.

But Chu Qiao said: "I didn't like this kind of disgusting thing. Your sister bought it for herself. What's the matter with me? I just came here to have a look!"

The scene was very embarrassing.

Li Aiqian smirked a few times, and said to Chu Qiao apologetically, "Girl, otherwise, I'll buy something and give it to you as a gift!"

"Yes! Old woman, how much money does this thing cost?"

The first sentence was addressed to Li Aiqian, while the latter sentence was addressed to the old woman.

When the mother-in-law immediately said: "Well, this, this item is the most expensive item in this stall, so it is a little more expensive than other items!"

Chu Qiao didn't take it seriously, and said with an evil smile: "They are a big family, how can they not have such a small amount of money?"

This sentence stopped Concubine Shu from what she wanted to say. Originally, she wanted to open her mouth, the old woman extorted money!
As for Li Aiqian who is more stable than Concubine Shu, she imitated Chu Qiao and smiled evilly: "Oh, how much money did the old woman ask for?"

"1000 taels."

It's really not her old lady extorting money, it's true, this thing costs 1000 taels!
