Chapter 18 The Edge of the Stream
"I just heard from you that the lock inside is beautiful, can our young lady go in and have a look?"
"I can't ask for it, haha! Please come in! Boss Song opened the two doors and welcomed the young lady in. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Info One look at her upright posture and beautiful neck, you know that she is of noble birth.
Not to mention the six girls in the corridor who bowed their heads in silence, and the four little girls in new blue silk clothes, all stood respectfully and respectfully, and they never heard a sound!
Boss Song glanced at it and was also shocked.
Last time, the second wife of the Jin State Mansion came, but there were only four girls and two little girls, and the noble girl who came today is afraid, hehe, it's too big!
The girl in the crimson satin robe seemed to be very interested in the lock, and looked at it again and again: "May I ask the shopkeeper, what is this trick called?" ”
Although Boss Song liked this lock, he couldn't name it.
"May I ask Mrs. Nangong, what is this flower called?"
Su Ji smiled brightly and said, "It's called Jianlan"
"Oh, I want to embroider this pattern on the placket and the corners of the skirt, I wonder if I can draw a pattern?"
Boss Song said respectfully: "Of course you can, but you can't describe it well for a while, Miss might as well sit and wait......"
Ting Huan stepped forward and said: "I have ready-made patterns, no need to describe them!" ”
"Is this case from you?" The girl smiled happily as if a flower had bloomed.
Ting Huan nodded: "Yes, this lock is made by my lock shop."
"You opened the lock shop at such a young age? Tsk, can't you see it at all? She spoke with a natural expression and looked like a child in surprise.
The maid named Wenyi just now said softly: "I just heard this young lady say that she wants to make a lock the size of a basin!" ”
"Can you look good with such a large piece of copper?" The girl's gaze is pure and sincere.
Ting Huan said quietly: "Of course it won't be a flat copper, it's going to be a beautiful carving, and you'll know when I paint it well......"
The girl nodded first, then thought for a moment and said: "Speaking of locks, my eldest brother has a powerful box, which can be opened if it is correct, and if it is wrong, it will be destroyed, but I don't know if there is a lock inside?" ……”
Ting Huan thought for a while and said: "There is a kind of secret box, that is, a self-destruct lock is pressed, and the blade inside is activated if it is opened wrongly, and the important tokens are twisted into powder."
"Yes, yes, yes! Probably the kind of thing you said! The girl clapped her hands and laughed.
"Just now you said to send me a pattern, can you let my maid go to your house to get it?"
"Yes!"
Ting Huan turned to Boss Song.
"Since the size has also been set, we will go back first, and the lock sample will be available in three days, and it will be ...... then."
Boss Song hurriedly took over the conversation: "When the time comes, I'll call someone to pick it up, and Miss Nangong won't go again!" ”
"Okay"
Ting Huan nodded, and walked out the door.
When she passed by the girl, she said, "Miss's clothes are so beautiful, but I don't know which clothes shop made them?" ”
She was slightly stunned and said, "My mother made it for me."
Su Ji sighed in disappointment, "Alas, no wonder, Miss's mother's hand is so skillful, Miss is blessed to be able to wear such beautiful clothes!" ”
Seeing that she was really sorry, the girl's eyelashes flashed and said: "Madame can go to Tianyique and find the great tailor of Huafuxuan, and the craftsmanship is almost so good!" ”
Su Ji said happily: "Really? ”
"Hmm!" She nodded earnestly.
Everyone saw that this girl was noble, not pretentious at all, innocent and friendly, and talking to her like a spring breeze, they couldn't help but think in their hearts, I don't know which eldest lady is so outstanding?
Although Boss Song was not sure who she was, he understood that he had to serve her well, and said with a smile: "Miss is waiting here, I was going to send Mrs. Nangong and Miss back, and I just came back with tricks, do you think it?" ”
She listened and said, "Thank you shopkeeper, just do what you say!" ”
After Ting Huan went back, he found a trick for Rui Baoxiang's guys, and he began to find a big rice paper to come out, planning to think about how to design the big lock surface of the basin.
At a glance, I saw the swallow lock in the corner of the table.
He frowned slightly and asked, "Ge Ling, where did you put the Yan Couple lock last night?" ”
Ge Ling ran out with flour in his hands and flour on the tip of his nose and said, "Didn't Mrs. say put it on the beams of the house?" I specially folded two chairs with Uncle Guang'an to put them on! ”
She suddenly remembered something and said nervously, "What's wrong?" Did it run away on its own? ”
Ting Huan looked at the table.
Seeing the Yan Couple Lock lying quietly on a book, Ge Ling couldn't help but cover her mouth and quietly asked, "Then, do you want to?" she looked at the beams of the room.
"Forget it, don't touch it, let it go!"
"Uh-huh" Song Ling stuck out his tongue and walked back to the kitchen.
Ting Huan picked up the lock, the lines were so smooth and beautiful! It seems that she can feel the smoothness of the swallow's feathers and the slightly hot body temperature, and suddenly she smiled, then I will draw a spring picture of the swallow wearing the willow!
Ji Jin accompanied the raw clothes to buy some tools, and found two new copper and iron shops, corresponding to more and more orders of custom locks. The business on the counter is getting better and better, and Guang'an has also learned to receive guests, although he is a little stupid, but he is diligent and honest. Guang'an was carefully wiping the lock on the wall with a rag, and fixing the small nail of the padlock with a small hammer, when a cyan figure slipped in without paying attention for a while.
When he was discovered, the man was lifting the curtain and peeking into the patio and inner courtyard.
Guang'an stepped forward and asked enthusiastically: "Childe wants to buy a lock?" ”
The man seemed frightened, and shrunk his neck sharply, looking in a hurry. Guang'an knew that he had a loud voice, and he couldn't help it, he was in a car!
"Oh oh oh, I'll just take a look"
Guang'an saw that he was of medium stature, but he was thin and tight, his cheeks were slightly sunken, his complexion was pale, his cheekbones were prominent, and his eyes were turning left and right.
"The locks are all hanging on the wall...... Childe, let's go over there and see! ”
"Yo, really" One corner of the curtain he opened was hung, and he looked in unrelentingly.
"I ...... If you want to see your shopkeeper, I'm going to make a custom one, well, Shou word lock"
Guangan took a lock from the wall and placed it on the counter.
"This is the longevity lock, son, please see ......"
"What kind of longevity lock is this, it's obviously square?"
"Childe, the word Shou is inside, it is the lock key that makes the word Shou, not the lock body made into the word Shou......"
He reluctantly walked over, took it in his hand and looked at it a few times and said, "This longevity character is not good-looking, are there any other longevity characters?" Doesn't it mean that the shopkeeper can be customized according to the requirements? ”
Guang'an apologized: "Like the word Shou, there are only two kinds in our store, and the shopkeeper now only customizes the big lock face, and this lock heart is not so many tricks, besides, ordinary people don't dare to use it......"
"If the son must look different, then it has to be cast separately, and the price will be relatively high......"
The man in Tsing Yi was a little impatient and said: "Oh, I can't tell you clearly, ask your shopkeeper to come out!" ”
