Chapter 547
His idea is still the same: "I can go to the prince's house to sell it again. No one wants it this year, but maybe someone will want it next year?" Mrs. Wen was about to get angry when she heard the words: "Originally Princess Qin has already fallen in love, and I don't want the Guo family Talking about trying out new jewelry, I sent a few pieces that were new, I didn’t see them, according to people who saw them, the workmanship was good, and the price was [-]% lower than the antiques, so I would go the next day, Princess Qin would not agree. It's not you who went, and it's not me!"

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "I don't worry about selling jewelry, let alone antiques." Mrs. Wen gave him a hard look: "How can I not worry? Last year, the snowstorm hit several of my villages, and my money was much less than in previous years. Shops live, and several shops are not as good as one shop, and the spare money is only for buying some materials, how can I make this antique jewelry every day?"

While talking, the girls went back and forth: "Ma'am, the guys in the shop are talking back and forth." Mrs. Wen had a headache: "What's the matter?" She was full of doubts: "What happened this year? All these antiques came to our shop?"

The shopkeeper doesn't talk, and the flow of antiques can't be said in any year.He only flattered Mrs. Wen: "It's because our shop has a good reputation that people can find it."

The clerk hurried over, and as expected, another piece of jewelry was presented, this time it was even better, it was a green jade hairpin with sea water pattern, the design was simple, but the price was 8000 taels.

Mrs. Wen took a breath: "Is it so expensive?" Ordinary middle-class people spend only a few hundred silver a year. This jewelry shop is getting more and more evil. Recently, there are thousands of taels of jewelry for sale. .

She looked over and over again, and finally said cautiously: "I'm sorry." After sending the shopkeeper and the clerk away, there was one more thing that bothered her.

The lady's natal family is from a noble family in Beijing, and there are two people who were newly selected to enter the palace. This year, they should be beauties.Mrs. Wen's natal family has been worried about this matter, and Mrs. Wen is very concerned about it.

Still upset at night, Mrs. Wen came back, and the maids replied outside: "The master is back." Mrs. Wen was still meditating under the window, Mrs. Wen didn't like being neglected, and when Mrs. Wen woke up, he had already gone to the concubine's room .

Mrs. Wen was even more angry. She was usually on good terms with Mr. Wen, and she always relied on her status to the concubines and was always dignified.A few things didn't go as planned today, and she couldn't help being even more angry.

After a few days of being bored like this, news came from the palace that two members of the Huang family had entered into the beauty.In order to comfort them, Mrs. Wen went to the palace, and first came to worship the concubine. When the concubine ordered to get up, Mrs. Wen saw the two pieces of jewelry on the concubine's head.

One piece of green jade hairpin and one piece of pearl bracelet.While she was wondering, a concubine who was with her said a few more words in order to please the noble concubine: "His Royal Highness Qin Wang is filial, and the princess specially selected these two jewelry to present, which shows her filial piety."

The imperial concubine really likes it very much, her face is full of spring breeze, which can be seen by anyone.

Mrs. Wen relied on her life as a concubine, and she usually had a lot of opportunities in the palace. She took advantage of her old son to smile and look at her a few times: "Sure enough, this pattern is so delicate from such a distance. If you can get closer and let me have a look, I will take advantage of it." Heart."

The imperial concubine smiled at her, she didn't let the two of them enter the beauty, she comforted their family members, and it was the filial piety of King Qin, so she took it down and showed it to Madam Wen.

The blue jade hairpin is carved with seawater patterns, because of its preciousness, Mrs. Wen saw clearly last time that it is exactly the same thing.The cold air flowed from the top of her head to the soles of her feet, and then she met the resentful eyes of her two cousins.

After coming out of the imperial concubine's palace, I went to the residence of the cousins ​​and dismissed the maids. The cousins ​​told her the inside story: "Do you know? The jewelry was sent to the Prince Qin's mansion by the beautiful Huang's family, and Princess Qin sent it to the palace."

Of course she would not take such a valuable thing as a gift for the noble concubine for nothing.Mrs. Wen said sourly: "What is there, isn't it just two pieces of jewelry, the imperial concubine has never seen anything before, and she has such shallow eyesight?"

"Isn't it just two pieces of jewelry?" The cousins ​​stared like black-eyed chickens: "You didn't look carefully just now, those are the jewelry that came out of the empress's palace."

At this point, Mrs. Wen suddenly understood that the imperial concubine had always wanted to enter the central palace, and that giving her the jewelry of the former empress was an excellent omen.

Besides, if this kind of jewelry is replaced by officials and eunuchs, they generally dare not bring it out.If it's a rich family, they just collect and sell it for money.The best use is to send it out to get promoted and make a fortune.

The regret in her heart was so regretful.Thinking of seeing Mrs. Huang in a few days, she must be arrogant, and Mrs. Wen will not have a good time on the way out of the palace.

He went straight to the shop and told the shopkeeper: "If you have any fine jewelry, please send it to me." Then asked him: "Why did this jewelry fall into Mrs. Huang's hands?"

Mrs. Huang usually has a shop, but it is far away.

As for the rare antiques, the shopkeeper can inquire clearly as long as he sees them in front of his eyes. This is his occupational disease.Immediately he sighed and said: "This jewelry was given to the Guo family first, and the Guo family did not dare to take it, so they came to our house."

"Why give it to the Guo family first?" Mrs. Wen was furious, and the shopkeeper thought to herself, it's not that you want to hear the truth.Slowly said: "Guo's shop is big, people think their family has financial resources at a glance."

Opposite Guo's house is a five-storey bay, and Mrs. Wen's here has only two storefront bays.Mrs. Wen held back her anger, she felt uncomfortable when she heard about the Guo family, and said to the shopkeeper, "Let's talk."

"Our family didn't want it, so he went to the Huang's house. After two setbacks, he also learned to be smart. I found out that the seller told the Huang's house that this jewelry can be bought." The shopkeeper said, Mrs. Wen I was even more annoyed in my heart: "Why didn't he say that to us?"

The shopkeeper said: "It's always that he didn't think of it at the time."

Mrs. Wen fiddled with the handkerchief in her hand, calmed down for a while, and said bitterly and bitterly: "If there is such a thing again, you must remember to come back to me." The shopkeeper thought, when will he not call you back?If you buy a few thousand taels, can you not return to the family?

"Shopkeeper, that person is here again." The shopkeeper rushed over, and the shopkeeper immediately panicked, stood up and said, "Ma'am, I think he has something good, I'll let the guys keep an eye on it."

Before he could finish speaking, Mrs. Wen hurried outside and stood still behind the counter, but there was no one there.She wouldn't come up to see this man, but wanted to take a look.

In a moment of impatience, I saw the shopkeeper get up again, and forgot to let that person go in to see the shopkeeper.

I didn't want to go outside, but I saw no one.Mrs. Wen looked at the clerk, and the clerk pouted at the opposite side: "The Guo family always goes first." The man was sneaky, and he looked suspicious from behind.

The shopkeeper said softly: "Probably not a serious person." There are more sneaky antique sellers than serious antique sellers. Mrs. Wen has this shop and knows some of them.

Either the family jewelry was stolen and sold, which dare not be upright; or it was a tomb robber who sold stolen goods, which was even more ghostly.

The jewelry of the former queen was taken out, whether it was lost or retrieved from the tomb, I am not sure.
