Chapter 18: White Jade Guanyin

Wu Tianrou sat down in the box, then took off her hat and drank the hot tea brought by the guy. Before the cup of tea was finished, there was a knock at the door.

Cuiqin opened the door and saw a middle-aged man who looked like a shopkeeper standing outside the door with a few guys holding trays.

The middle-aged man smiled kindly and walked into the room.

"Miss Wu, the contemptible surname Gao is the shopkeeper of this Jade Zhen Zhai, these are the best jade Guanyin in our store, and please choose at will."

With a wave of his hand, the three men walked into the room and placed the trays in their hands on the round table in turn.

Wu Tianrou raised her eyes and saw that there were more than ten jade Guanyin of various colors, some sitting and lying, some holding scriptures, and some holding baskets. The postures are different and vivid, but she doesn't know how to choose for a while.

"Shopkeeper Gao, I didn't expect that there are so many Jade Guanyin in your store, I don't know much about this, please introduce the shopkeeper."

Looking at the jade Guanyin on the table, Wu Tianrou had no choice but to ask the shopkeeper for help.

Nodding, the shopkeeper pointed to the jade Guanyin and introduced, "Miss Wu, these jade Guanyin are the Fish Basket Guanyin, the Sutra Guanyin, the King of Dewang, the Medicine Guanyin, the Water Moon Guanyin, the Lotus Lying Guanyin, and the Pubei Guanyin...... Wait. These are all carved with good jade, I don't know which one Miss Wu has taken a fancy to? ”

Wu Tianrou stood up and walked around the table twice, carefully looking at the many Jade Guanyin several times. Although each one is a boutique, I don't know why she always feels unsatisfactory.

"The shopkeeper Gao, some jade Guanyin are all high-quality products, but I want to buy one for my grandmother, these don't seem to be suitable. I wonder if there are any other options for the high shopkeeper? ”

"Hehe, if these are not suitable, then we can only ask Miss Wu to take a look at the treasure of our town store."

Smiling, the shopkeeper clapped his hands, and the young man who had greeted Wu Tianrou before walked in with a tray covered with red silk.

"Miss Wu, please see, it's this white-clothed Guanyin statue carved from white jade."

Signaling the young man to put the tray on the table, the high shopkeeper slowly lifted the red silk, and a white and transparent standing jade Guanyin appeared in front of everyone.

Jade Guanyin is kind and kind-eyed, and the white jade is transparent and moist, and it seems that Guanyin seems to have a shining light. The texture of the white jade is reasonable and ingenious, and the whole body is white and flawless, but there are a few traces of green on the jade net bottle in Guanyin's hand, which looks like the willow branches of the net bottle are natural.

As soon as she saw this white jade Guanyin, Wu Tianrou's eyes immediately lit up. The more she looked, the more satisfied she became, and she hurriedly looked at the shopkeeper Gao.

"Shopkeeper Gao, just this white jade Guanyin, I like this jade Guanyin very much."

"Okay, please wait a moment for the guy to wrap up the Jade Guanyin."

After speaking, he took Cuiqin, who was favored by Wu Tianrou, to settle the bill.

secretly gave Wu Tianrou a big discount, watching her smile happily and taking the maid ring into the carriage and leaving, the high shopkeeper wiped his sweat and smiled at the young man.

"It's still the master who is powerful, and he can actually know that this Miss Wu doesn't look down on other Jade Guanyin."

"Boss, didn't the master ask you to find that white jade Guanyin to give it to the concubine, why did you suddenly give it to this Miss Wu?"

Scratching his head, the young man didn't know why.

"Who knows what the master thinks, forget it, hurry up and pack up your things, and you have to continue doing business."

After speaking, the shopkeeper shook his head and walked back to Yuzhenzhai.

The young man shrugged his shoulders and put the matter behind him, and followed the shopkeeper Gao into Yuzhenzhai.

may have chosen the gift she liked, so she was in a good mood, Wu Tianrou felt that the way back was particularly short, and soon returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

gave the pastries bought in Baiwei Zhai to Mrs. Wu as a gift, and she was very happy. Accompanied her to drink tea and eat two pastries, and after a few words, Wu Tianrou returned to her Yunxiang Courtyard.

Under the service of Cuiping and Cuizhi, she changed into her home clothes, and after washing her face and hands, Wu Tianrou put the white jade Guanyin on the table and looked at it carefully.

"Miss, this Jade Guanyin is really good and lifelike, I believe the old lady will be satisfied."

Pulling Wu Tianrou's hanging hair, Mother Wu looked at the white jade Guanyin on the table and couldn't help but sigh.

"Yes, Miss. It's the first time I've seen such a realistic Jade Guanyin, and it's like I'm about to come back to life. It's amazing how much it glows in the sun! ”

After serving a bowl of chilled sour plum soup, Cuizhi was busy looking at Jade Guanyin.

Picking up the bowl and taking a sip of the cool, sweet and sour plum soup that sipped into her heart, Wu Tianrou smiled.

"Yes, I took a fancy to this white jade Guanyin at a glance. This grandmother's 60th birthday will definitely make my grandmother happy! ”

Seeing that Wu Tianrou drank the sour plum soup in a few sips, and was still a little unsatisfied, Wu's mother hurriedly stretched out her hand to stop her who wanted another bowl.

"Miss, it's about to be dinner, be careful that you can't eat for a while. And now the weather is not so hot, carefully ice to the stomach. ”

Looking at the iced sour plum soup in the large bowl on the table, Wu Tianrou smacked her lips and nodded.

"Mother Wu is right, then you can drink the rest when Cuiqin comes back."

After saying goodbye to Cuiping, Wu Tianrou asked Wu's mother to put away the white jade Guanyin.

"I remember, I didn't say a word about the gifts I chose, you know. I'm here to surprise my grandmother! ”

"Don't worry, Miss, we won't say it!"

Cui Ping and Cui Zhi hurriedly assured.

As she was talking, Cuiqin, who went to the big kitchen to get dinner, came back. Putting the food box on the table outside, Cuiqin walked quickly to Wu Tianrou.

"Miss, I just met the agate next to Mrs., she said that Mrs. let inform each room, and go to Qixia Temple to pray for the old lady in three days."

Qixia Temple! Is it time to come? Thinking that in his previous life, he was Situ Jingshuo who he met in Qixia Temple, Wu Tianrou was in a trance for a while.

"Miss?"

didn't get Wu Tianrou's answer, but saw that she was a little shaken, Cuiqin couldn't help but gently push her.

"Got it, remember to wake me up early when the time comes."

After coming back to her senses, Wu Tianrou nodded to indicate that she understood, and sat down at the table outside with Cuiqin's support.

Cuizhi had already taken the dinner out of the food box, although it was all packed in small plates, and there were not too many of them, but there were no less than ten kinds of dishes.

"Why are there so many dishes today?"

Looking at the dishes and bowls on the table, Wu Tianrou asked strangely.

"Oh, yes. The big kitchen said that it is necessary to choose the dishes of the birthday banquet now, so it is necessary to make some dishes for each courtyard to taste and see which dishes are better in the end, so there will be more dishes in the near future. ”

Hearing Wu Tianrou's question, Cuiqin hurriedly replied.

"Ha, that's great! I've been able to eat a lot lately! ”

I heard that there will be new dishes to eat every day recently, and the happiest thing is the green branches.

Mother Wu on the side helplessly tapped Cuizhi's forehead with her fingers, and Cuizhi stuck out her tongue and obediently walked aside to serve Wu Tianrou rice.
