Chapter 184: Strange
The person who came was a tall woman, twenty-five or sixteen years old, combing a bun with a simple silver hairpin, wearing a half-old silver gray gown with branches and flowers, and a twill horse-faced skirt, which exuded a cold meaning from her bones.
Hua Qianyue couldn't help but look at it twice.
"Shopkeeper, take these two out and have a look." The woman circled around the counter and pointed to the two hairpins in the glass counter.
Shopkeeper Jiang took out the hairpin and put it on the counter, Hua Qianyue glanced at it from a distance, it was two latest styles of hairpins, a peach blossom hairpin inlaid with pink jade and a lotus leaf hairpin with malachite.
The vision is quite good, Hua Qianyue couldn't help but look at it twice, Xu is found that someone was quietly looking at herself, the woman's sharp eyes like an eagle shot straight over, and when she found out that it was just a handsome and harmless young man, her eyes instantly returned to her original clarity.
Her eyes changed so quickly that Hua Qianyue not only didn't notice anything, but even nodded politely to her when she met her clear gaze.
The woman quickly withdrew her gaze.
"That's it." In the end, the woman chose the malachite lotus hairpin.
Seeing that it was unique, Hua Qianyue nodded in her heart.
"Fifty taels." Shopkeeper Jiang packed it in a satin box and handed it over.
"Change me a box." The woman didn't answer, stretched out her hand and pointed to the box behind the shopkeeper Jiang, which was painted with gold and gold leaf.
The lotus leaf with the lotus flower is quite tasteful, Hua Qianyue nodded her head in her heart, and it seems that she is also well-informed.
"This ......," shopkeeper Jiang hesitated, "if you want that box, you have to add another five taels of silver." ”
The corresponding boxes of different grades of jewelry are also different, and the box with gold leaf is used on this hairpin, and the profit is much higher.
"Okay, fifty-five taels is fifty-five taels!" The woman reached into her sleeve.
"Huh......" The woman's face changed slightly, and she put a silver ticket of ten taels on the counter for a while, "The shopkeeper has discussed something with you, I will take this hairpin first and send it to you tomorrow, what do you think?"
The woman was a little embarrassed, she had just been bumped into on the street and didn't care too much because she was in a hurry, thinking that she had run into a thief.
Today is the day of her little sister and Lu, and before going out that day, she promised her little sister that she would come back before her. The little sister is still waiting for her to go back and insert the flute for her.
She seemed to see her little sister waiting in front of the house for her return.
"This ......" Shopkeeper Jiang hesitated a little, if it was the old customer, it would be no problem, but this woman was very angry, who could say if she would come back then.
This is a silver building, not a good hall. If he had a good heart, how would this shop still open? Dozens of people are pointing to this shop to eat.
The woman bit her lip when she saw the embarrassed appearance of the shopkeeper Jiang.
She didn't want to make it difficult for her, if it was on weekdays, she wouldn't open this mouth, but today ......, thinking of her little sister's expectant eyes......
The woman hesitated and looked down at her toes.
"You don't have to rush to get the silver back first, you can bring it over when you have time." Hua Qianyue interjected.
And such a good thing?
The woman looked at Hua Qianyue with some surprise, and soon returned to her original state.
"This is ......," the woman asked calmly.
"Hanako Childe. The proprietor of our store. Shopkeeper Jiang said.
"Thank you!" The woman nodded, picked up the box, crossed the threshold, and walked away without looking back.
"Just let people go?" Jiang shopkeeper said.
"Or else?" Hua Qianyue spread his hands.
"You're still more wealthy, childe!" Shopkeeper Jiang joked.
"I thought she would come to pay the money, though I didn't expect her to come." Hua Qian said, "We have to believe in the goodness of human nature. ”
"If I want to believe it, I'm afraid that when the time comes, I'll let you all drink the northwest wind with me."
Shopkeeper Jiang put the leftover hairpin back on the counter.
"Yes, you are the big butler, and we all point to you to eat." Hua Qianyue said playfully, "If you send kindness, how can you still show my importance." ”
Shopkeeper Jiang was amused by her words.
"You said she might come, so where did you find out?"
Shopkeeper Jiang has always believed in Hua Qianyue's vision, and she said that this woman would come back and wanted to know the reason.
You can see that although her clothes are old but generous, and her hair is meticulously combed, but there are a few grass clippings on her hair, which means that she should have traveled a long way. And the one who bought it was a hairpin, I think it should be someone at home and waiting for a hairpin, and you see that she is very characteristic whether she buys a hairpin or a box, which shows that these things are no stranger to the test. ”
After Hua Qianyue's analysis, Shopkeeper Jiang also felt that there seemed to be some truth.
"As long as women are not unfamiliar with these things, right?"
The young man who was listening to the conversation between the two couldn't help but interject.
What woman doesn't have her eyes shining when she sees exquisite jewelry, and the foil gold box is naturally much more expensive than the cotton satin box.
As soon as these words came out, Hua Qianyue and Shopkeeper Jiang both laughed.
"The 'strangeness' that the young master said is not the 'strangeness' you understand." After laughing, the shopkeeper Jiang said.
"The strangeness that the young master said is not that he understands the strangeness" is like a tongue twister.
The young man looked at Hua Qianyue puzzled, and then looked at the shopkeeper Jiang.
"How to say it, it's like if you stay in this shop for a long time, you can see at a glance which hairpin is in good condition, and which jewelry and clothes look better with it."
Seeing what the shopkeeper Jiang said, other guys also gathered around.
The woman walked through the bustling street with the box in her hand and went straight to the west of the city, turning a few alleys and stopping in front of a small courtyard.
The courtyard door is ajar, and a girl in yellow sits with a small pestle, her slender fingers supporting her cheeks, like a landscape painting.
"Sister, you're back!" The girl who heard the movement turned around and couldn't stop her joy.
"Look," said the woman, who put the gold-painted box into the maiden's hand. "Hairpin."
"This must be expensive!" The girl touched the malachite inlaid on the hairpin.
"I only have you as a sister, and besides, it's a major event in life, how can the hairpin be too shabby."
The woman said and picked up the hairpin and stuck it on the girl's head, looking left and right: "It's so beautiful."
"Oh yes, my sister Mama Chun came to look for you the day before yesterday." The girl said.
"What did she say?" The woman said lightly.
"Didn't say anything." The girl shook her head, "Just ask when you'll be back." Then leave some rice noodles and go. ”
"Dongqin is back!"
said that Cao Cao and Cao Cao arrived, and as soon as the sisters spoke, Mama Chun's voice came.
"I think it's time for you to get home."
Mama Chun smiled and put a three-foot square box into the girl's hand: "Mama knows that Dongping and Lu have a little heart today."
"Thank you, Mama." The girl called Dongping has crooked eyebrows. It's not squirming at all, and it seems to be very familiar with Mama Chun.
"Ah Ping, let's go cook first, I'll talk to Mama about something."
Dongqin branched out, Dongping and Mama Chun entered the house together.
Mama Chun took out a scroll from her sleeve and handed it to Dongqin: "Kill him."
Dongqin silently opened the scroll, which was the young son of today's Silver Building. (To be continued.) )
