Chapter 62: Sudden Changes (6)
Shopkeeper Liu had no choice but to take the silver ticket from the pear, with a smile on his face, but he was actually sweating in his heart. In the end, the shopkeeper Liu still boldly and honestly said: "The grass people should do their best." ”
She nodded, not too embarrassed by Shopkeeper Liu in this matter.
Not long after, when the fifth princess came back, she took the initiative to ask the shopkeeper Liu if he should pay part of the deposit first.
Shopkeeper Liu glanced at her.
She smiled and took the hand of the fifth princess and said, "Shopkeeper Liu is an old acquaintance of my sister, so there is no need to be so cautious in everything." Sister has already asked for this dress, and we will pick up the ready-to-wear in seven days. At that time, the sister will accompany the younger sister to pick it up, and the younger sister will pay it off together. ”
The five princesses still seemed to have something to say, and they were half loud.
Only then did she suddenly realize that she had missed something. Just look at how simple the dress of the fifth princess is when she says she is pregnant, you know what she wants to ask.
She asked Shopkeeper Liu: "I haven't asked Shopkeeper Liu just now, what is the price of the ready-to-wear clothes made of fabrics selected by the five princesses?"
Shopkeeper Liu immediately replied: "But a hundred taels is enough." When he said this, Shopkeeper Liu's eyes couldn't help shaking, obviously carefully calculating the price in his heart, and finally gave the best price that he could sell to such a noble person without losing money.
She felt that just now that she had directly revealed their identities, Shopkeeper Liu had personally selected the best fabrics in his store to choose for the Fifth Princess. One hundred taels is really not expensive, I'm afraid that the shopkeeper Liu can only return to the capital, and it won't make money. But this is not up to her, it depends on what the five princesses think.
She looked at the five princesses. The latter hesitated for a moment before nodding.
The matter of clothes was settled. Next stop, Liuli Pavilion.
The two shops are very close, but taking care of the belly of the fifth princess, the two still entered the sedan chair.
She asked bluntly: "Sister, I don't know, how does the fifth brother treat you?"
The first time she called the fifth prince the fifth brother, the fifth princess was stunned for a moment before she reacted, and immediately said with a full of happiness: "The fifth master treats me very well." ”
She smiled, and she had already got the answer she wanted, and further said: "Sister, do you know that your fourth brother's small treasury is full of gold and silver, and there must be a lot of your fifth master, and you are coming out with me now to prepare for the big banquet in the next moon palace, all to give your fifth master a long face." Sister, don't worry too much about the price. Or you should care, you should care, cheap things are not worthy of you, you must choose the most expensive and the best. ”
The fifth princess understood what she meant, her eyes darkened, and she knew that she was too petty, but she was ......
The fifth princess lowered her head like this and said: "Before my sister got married, my father repeatedly told me that once we enter the royal palace, we will not fight or rob, but remember to keep our duty." Now the palace gives my sister a hundred taels a month, which is too much. Sister ......"
Alas, the Fifth Imperial Concubine is different from her. Now, even if the father of the fifth princess is already a member of the third rank in the court, his family background is not comparable to General Chen. To put it bluntly, her monthly money is not enough to spend, and Ying Hao will not give it to her, she still has her father. The fifth princess was cautious, one hundred taels a month was her income, whether she was enough or not, she didn't dare to spend the money of the four princes, and there was no way to rely on her father's subsidy. The difficulties of the five princesses, she is not incomprehensible.
That's where the topic stops. She knew that no matter how much she persuaded her, she couldn't change the deep-rooted concept of the five princesses who didn't dare to be extravagant in just a few words.
Arrived at the Liuli Pavilion. It's so good to die, Crimson is not in the store today, but Brother Zhuang Qin is.
Today's Zhuang Qin has become a man of words and can take charge of himself.
She and Zhuang Qin explained the identity of the five princesses and their intentions this time. Zhuang Qin took the initiative to lead them to the back of the Liuli Pavilion.
It was at her behest that Zhuang Qin took some of the sets of wood carvings he was most proud of. The Fifth Imperial Concubine couldn't put it down when she saw it, it was really beautiful! The most important thing is that the wood carving, even in such a large shop, must not be too expensive, right? The Fifth Imperial Concubine felt that she could afford it.
How did the five princesses know that the wood carving jewelry of the craftsmen in the Liuli Pavilion has been sold for a maximum of ten taels of gold. There are not many of his works, each of them is a fine piece, and the first and the most rare. Occasionally, there are some works that he himself is not satisfied with, and there are a lot of people waiting to buy them outside, and the price is around five hundred taels of silver!
At this time, she looked at each other so solemnly, and they tacitly agreed not to talk about the price, but first to see which set the five princesses liked the most.
After a while, the fifth princess held a wooden hairpin in one hand, pointed to a set of wood carving jewelry to which the wooden hairpin belonged, and took the initiative to ask, "I don't know this set of ......."
Zhuang Qin interrupted the Fifth Princesses and said, "No! It's the negligence of the grass people, you can't play with this set of jewelry for the Fifth Princess." After saying that, Zhuang Qin immediately took away the set of jewelry and placed it far away from the five princesses.
The fifth princess looked at her in amazement, and then looked at her in confusion.
Or wait for Zhuang Qin to say: "Fifth princess, do you like that style?"
The Fifth Imperial Concubine nodded stunnedly.
Zhuang Qin smiled and said: "It's not as good as this, the style of this set is actually very simple." It only takes five days for the grass people to drive out a new set. The set of materials just now, the fifth princess, you are pregnant, and you can't touch it. From now on, the grass people will carve an exact pair for you with the right materials, and the time will be ......."
"Brother Zhuang, you can directly find a Five Princes when they are there, and send them to the Five Princes' Mansion. She answered, patting the hand of the Fifth Imperial Princess, who was so shocked that she grabbed her hand when she heard "I am pregnant, I can't touch it", and comforted: "Sister is not afraid." ”
Zhuang Qin nodded.
The matter was settled, and she immediately pulled the fifth princess who was still in a state of fear and left. The Fifth Princesses didn't forget to ask the price at all.
The next stop, I heard that it is the Hongyan Pavilion of the "home" industry. When she goes out, remember to bring a belt tag.
She couldn't help the five princesses choose such things as rouge gouache in ancient times. She directly showed her waist card when she entered the door, and the highest person in charge of her own store provided intimate service throughout the process.
This time, there was no need for her to say, as soon as people saw the battle at the door, and then looked at the stomach of the fifth princess, they directly guessed the identity of the fifth princess beside her. The recommendations are all made to ensure that the pregnant woman is foolproof.
After the fifth princess had picked everything herself, she said to the fifth princess: "Have you picked it? Let's go. ”
The fifth princess was stunned for a moment, and immediately refused: "No! No! How can you call my sister ......?"
"This is your fourth brother's shop. After explaining one sentence, she took the hand of the fifth princess and walked out.
