Chapter 108: Crystal Jade Pavilion
Mrs. Xie has some eyesight in the end, and within a few days of her speculation, Master Xie asked her to take her two daughters to Jingyu Pavilion to pick out jewelry to distract from bad luck on the grounds that the haunted thing was too unlucky. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Hmph, I haven't heard that in the past, bad luck went to the jewelry shop to pick up jewelry! It's good to be distracted. Mrs. Xie said secretly in her heart, but it is not easy to say it clearly, after all, the matter of rewarding the lotus banquet is not harmful to her daughter, but there is only one more left and right.
She didn't say much when she thought about it, and set off with Xie Zhaolin and Xie Jialin with a kind face.
Because of the heavy rain just a few days ago, borrowing the blessing of this rain, this morning is cloudy weather, the sun has not yet shown its face, so it is not so hot, the breeze blows, the curtain of the carriage is slightly lifted, bringing a touch of coolness.
Although Xie Zhaolin promised to "get back together" with Xie Jialin, in the end, she only planned to make a show in front of people, and in this carriage, she didn't want to look at her face more.
So along the way, I just secretly looked out the car window. Mrs. Xie didn't stop her when she saw this, and she didn't give a little face, did she think that their mother and daughter were easy to handle?!
Regarding the obvious hostility between Mrs. Xie's mother and daughter, Xie Jialin did not sit on pins and needles, after the haunted thing passed, her body was conditioned and already well.
Although it is not as plump as before, the appearance of the weak willow supporting the wind can make people feel more pity when they look at it, and it can be regarded as a blessing in disguise.
"Madam, two young ladies, the Crystal Jade Pavilion has arrived." Just when the atmosphere in the car was dull, the coachman's voice came from outside, forcing back the hostile gaze of Mrs. Xie.
Xie Zhaolin also came back to her senses from the car window in time, straightened her dress, and got out of the car with Mrs. Xie with an expressionless face, and finally Xie Jialin.
Jingyu Pavilion is a famous jewelry workshop in Beijing, many wives and ladies of princes and nobles like to come here to order jewelry, and they are proud to be able to get limited edition jewelry. Xie Xuelin's camellia hairpin last time was also obtained from here.
After getting out of the carriage and standing outside the gate of the Jingyu Pavilion, looking at the red walls and green tiles and the magnificent plaque, I knew that this was not an ordinary place.
Although his mother was reluctant to pick jewelry in such a place, this was ordered by his father, and it was enough to see that he attached great importance to himself.
Xie Jialin was secretly happy in her heart, but she still had to take into account the mood of Xie Zhaolin and Mrs. Xie, so she followed the rules there, and only the secretly tightly twisted handkerchief could see her excitement at this time.
Jingyu Pavilion is worthy of being a high-grade place, as soon as the three of them entered the door, a guy came forward, and when Mrs. Xie reported her identity and intention, the guy nodded again and again and invited them to the private room on the second floor.
The private room on the second floor should be prepared for distinguished guests, and the decoration inside is unusual, and what is more special is that it is equipped with an ivory carved interstitial.
Ivory is a rare thing in the Daxing Dynasty, and it seems that it is not only financial resources, but also power that can be placed in the private room of this Jingyu Pavilion.
Thinking about it this way, this Crystal Jade Pavilion is really not simple! Xie Zhaolin sat there and thought to himself.
"Madame, Miss please wait, the little one is going to look for the booklet." The man called two pink-clothed maids to serve tea and snacks, and went out to get a booklet with jewelry.
Xie Jialin had never been here, and because she was disturbed by the haunted things some time ago, she didn't have time to inquire about Jingyu Pavilion, so she didn't know that most of the jewelry here was not ready-made.
How do you keep them waiting in the house? And go get the booklet, shouldn't it be a box for things? Besides, in a place as big as the Crystal Jade Pavilion, there should be a lot of jewelry, and if they want to put it in a box and show it to them, I don't know how many people they have to find, and I don't know how much time it will take, but it is better for them to go in person and look safe.
But this is probably where the Jade Pavilion is different from ordinary jewelry workshops, right? Thinking about it like this, I have another expectation!
So Xie Jialin also relaxed and drank tea, and the other two people in the room were reluctant to talk to her, so this short time became very difficult.
Fortunately, the guy's movements were quite fast, and after a while, the door was gently opened, and the guy walked in with a plate, which was exactly the same booklet as Xie Zhaolin had seen last time.
On a plate, it's quite distinctive, like a dish. Xie Jialin couldn't hold back, but she still had to make a humble appearance, and asked Xie Zhaolin to pick first: "Sister pick first." ”
Since she was so humble, Xie Zhaolin was not polite, reached out and took the booklet from the plate and flipped through it with Mrs. Xie.
"That's a good look." Mrs. Xie pointed to a hairpin with intricate colors and said.
Xie Zhaolin looked over and felt that it was too eye-catching, but Mrs. Xie liked it, so it was better to ask for it, and the Xie family was not short of such a little money, so she said to the guy: "This is it." ”
The man took the pen and paper from the hand of the maid standing on the side, wrote it down, and said as he memorized: "Miss, you pick slowly, but some of the styles in this booklet have already been selected, that is, the ones with red dots on the right side." ”
Finished picked? What does that mean? As soon as he said this, all three pairs of puzzled eyes in the room focused on the guy.
The guy secretly disdained in his heart where the three of them came from, and they didn't even inquire about the rules when they came to Jingyu Pavilion, what a shame! But the face still politely explained: "The three of you don't know, many of the jewelry in our Jingyu Pavilion are limited!" The so-called scarcity is expensive. So there are only a few styles that we can do, and if we have reached the number of reservations, we won't sell them to anyone else! ”
As it turned out, a trace of disappointment appeared on the faces of the three of them, and they were a little worried about what they would do if they had been picked up by others.
Seeing this, the guy added comfortingly: "But don't worry, the three of you, our Jingyu Pavilion is reasonable, and everything comes first and then comes, you can rest assured." The implication is that if they don't like it anymore, it's because someone is in front of them and can't blame them.
But if it hasn't been sold out yet, it will definitely not let the later people take advantage.
The three of them naturally heard the meaning of his words, lowered their heads and continued to look at them.
However, after being reminded by the guy, Xie Jialin became more and more nervous, for fear that Xie Zhaolin would rob her of the style she liked, and it happened to be the last one.
Even if it's not the last one, it's really not good for the two sisters to wear the same one. Although she has enough confidence to surpass her sister-in-law in appearance.
Fortunately, Xie Zhaolin looked at it for a while, and she didn't pick anything she liked, so she let go of her heart a little. (To be continued.) )
