Chapter Seventy-Five: The Little Soldiers Go Out
At this time, Chen Yifei asked Zhilan to pay attention to Su Jinchen's interests and preferences, and the opportunity came immediately. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The housekeeper Mama of Jing Zizhai instructed Zhilan and Su Jinchen to go to Debaoxuan to get the jade buttons that Chen Yifei had ordered earlier.
There are very few opportunities to leave the house on weekdays, but this time it is finally here, and Zhilan naturally can't help but be overjoyed.
She received a pair of cards and happily pulled Su Jinchen to the account office to pay the silver.
β¦β¦
"That's all?" Zhilan frowned, "Mr. Gu, you can't be mistaken, right?" β
"You can't be wrong." The bookkeeper played with the abacus beads solemnly, and said with words in his mouth, "This deposit was paid early in the morning, and only the last balance is left." Look at it," he said, pushing the abacus towards Zhilan, "no more, no less, just right." β
"How could I look at this! Our second master clearly said that he would pay a hundred taels! Zhilan pursed her lips unhappily. I couldn't help but slander in my heart: This errand will not be arranged sooner or later, but it will be arranged when the second young master is not at home today, and I originally planned to take advantage of this time to go to Debaoxuan to get jade buttons, it is best to see what Sister Ruoxun likes, and privately set it for the second master. The iron rooster that doesn't pull out this hair, he must not be able to fool out half of his son, hey!
"All the money I handle here has to be posted, but it's not what the girl says." Mr. Gu said with a serious face, "Even if the second young master comes here himself, it's still as much as it is!" If the girl has no other problems, I will take the silver ticket according to this amount. β
"Yes, that's exactly the number...... There's Mr. Laogu. Su Jinchen saw that Zhilan was still pouting and didn't speak, so he hurriedly smiled and said.
Mr. Gu snorted coldly, took a silver ticket with his hands and feet, and handed it to Zhilan.
Zhilan took it, didn't say hello, turned around and walked out the door.
Su Jinchen could only smile embarrassedly at the account room, "Thank you, Mr. Gu, let's go first." β
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
"What's the matter, are you really angry?" On the way out, Su Jinchen gently touched Zhilan with his arm, "Actually, Mr. Gu also acts according to the rules, there is nothing wrong with it, don't be angry." β
Zhilan was so depressed that she couldn't tell Su Jinchen directly, it was Chen Yifei who signaled in front of her to find an opportunity to give her a gift, so she had to say in a muffled voice, "Who is angry?" I just can't get used to his arrogant look! Knowing that I don't know a few big words, he specially asked me to read the abacus! Isn't this a deliberate run on people? β
The more Zhilan spoke, the more angry she became, "Doesn't he know a few words, why don't you take the top exam if he's so powerful, what are you doing with my little girl!" Hum! I'm! β
Su Jinchen smiled, "I just said that I wasn't angry...... she thought about it and persuaded softly, "Don't be angry." If you want to read and write, I'll teach you. Promise not to ask him to underestimate you next time. β
When Zhilan heard this, her eyes lit up, "Really? If my sister is willing to teach me, then dare to love me! β
Su Jinchen nodded, "It's naturally true, as long as you're not bored." β
"Uh-huh!" Zhilan hurriedly agreed, "I'm definitely not bored." β
Su Jinchen showed a faint smile, "Then let's decide, in the future, you need to take an hour every day to follow me to read and write with peace of mind - let's say it first, I'm very strict." β
"Okay." Zhilan smiled mischievously, "Don't worry, sir, I will definitely be the most obedient student." β
After saying that, both of them couldn't help laughing.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Debaoxuan is located in the most prosperous area of the entire capital, next to the shops, gambling houses, teahouses, and wine shops...... The whole nine yards. Both sides of the avenue are also lined with stalls selling snacks and pastries and humming noodles.
Because of the task, even though she was very reluctant to sell small things outside, Zhilan still didn't dare to linger more, and directly took Su Jinchen into the main hall of Debaoxuan.
Debaoxuan is known as the No. 1 treasure shop in the capital, although Su Jinchen has never been here before, but he has also heard of their name - before the accident in the family, almost all the jewelry of his mother and sister came from here.
The two of them were treated with courtesy, and the shopkeeper directly let the little boy welcome them into the private room on the second floorβa treatment that ordinary serious ladies may not enjoy.
Zhilan seemed to be accustomed to it, took Su Jinchen's hand and casually walked into the private room and sat down.
There was a faint fruity smell in the room, which was very fresh and smelly. After a while, there was a little girl who sent exquisite snacks and tea.
"Sister Ruoxun, you can eat it too." Zhilan took a piece of pea yellow and ate it by herself, not forgetting to entertain Su Jinchen.
Su Jinchen shook his head, only picked up the teacup and took a sip gently, looked around, and said, "This place is quite elegantly arranged." β
Zhilan nodded, "Well, the dim sum is also good." β
While the two were talking, a thoughtful-looking guy put the jade buttons that Chen Yifei had ordered here before and presented them in a brocade box.
Su Jinchen picked up the buttons and checked them one by one.
The button is made of high-quality jadeite, the color is excellent, the green and clear like a lake, so in the hand, although it is only a small one, it is also delicate like a handicraft.
Think about Chen Yifei's temperament...... It's also a good match.
The two of them checked each other, and made sure that there was no problem, so they carefully put the buckle into the brocade box and paid the last remaining balance.
"We have invited a few new masters in Debaoxuan, and we just created a batch of jewelry a few days ago, are the girls interested in taking a look?" The guy asked earnestly.
Zhilan was thinking about how to attract Su Jinchen to choose the jewelry she liked, so she was so right, so she hurriedly said, "Then take it - if it's too ordinary, forget it." β
The guy hurriedly laughed, "This nature, this nature." β
When the young man went out to get the jewelry, Su Jinchen said hesitantly, "Zhilan, the jewelry ...... here" is too expensive for them.
Mo said that she was just a little girl in the Chen Mansion now, even if she was the third lady from the Shilang Mansion back then, she didn't have a single thing about Debaoxuan.
Seeing this, Zhilan couldn't help but smile and explained to her, "In previous years, I came here to choose jewelry for the second young master on the birthdays of several young ladies in the mansion, and they are all familiar with each other. So if there's anything good, I'll see it first. β
"Oh, I see." Su Jinchen nodded. But she was thinking too much.
"Is it the birthday of a young lady who is coming up recently?"
Zhilan was just about to open her mouth to answer, but suddenly remembered Chen Yifei's entrustment, and only smiled and said, "Let's take a look first, if there is a new coincidence, pay attention, and wait for the young ladies to give birth to their birthdays, and let them do it." β
Su Jinchen thought about it and made sense, so he didn't ask more.
