Chapter 164: Face Goodness

After the little brother and sister kowtowed to the old lady and got up, Grandma Song Si hurriedly said, "Ouch, the old lady is a Da Luo Immortal, can she pinch it?" Why is a child so handsome, people love it to the heart. He beckoned to Qian Yijin and said, "Good boy, come here and let me take a good look." ”

The old lady was very happy, and scolded with a smile, "You will be poor, and you are not afraid of scaring other people's children." ”

Qian Yijin walked over with a smile, and Grandma Song Si pulled him to touch his face and pinch his ears, and his mouth kept boasting.

Little Lori Qing'er, who was sitting in the old lady's arms, said glutinously, "Mother touch it well, and give Sister Qing such a good-looking brother." ”

When she said this, she reached the heart of Fourth Grandma Song, and also the hearts of the old lady and Second Mrs. Song, and everyone laughed.

Song Huaijin said with a smile, "What the fifth sister said is very true, in the future, when the fourth aunt gives birth to a younger brother, I will not return to Beijing, and I will play with him every day." ”

Grandma Song Si was even more happy when she heard this.

Because it was the first time for Mrs. Song to see Qian Yijin and she liked to be abnormal, she asked her to give him a purse with jade ornaments. Second Mrs. Song and Fourth Grandma Song also gave Qian Yijin a meeting gift, one was a small jade gourd and the other was a small jade pendant.

They all gave gifts to meet their juniors, not to send their subordinates with silver.

The old lady beckoned to Qian Yixiu again and smiled, "The old woman's eyes are not very good, get closer, let me take a good look." Last year, because of Mrs. Zhai, I didn't have time to take a closer look at you. ”

Qian Yixiu came to the old lady, the old lady pulled her to look at it carefully, touched her little face and said, "This child looks so good......" and said to the second lady Song, "Why do I think this child has a good face, as if he is destined for me, and he likes it tightly when he looks at it." ”

Second Lady Song smiled, "The old lady is a bodhisattva. ”

Sister Qing next to her was a little jealous, and asked with a small mouth, "Does Grandma like her more than Sister Qing?" Don't you hurt Sister Qing in the future? ”

The old lady was very happy and said with a smile, "Our sister Qing is still jealous." It's different, my grandmother likes Sister Qing to the heart, and I can't wait to give you the best things in the world. But I like this young lady is distressed, I always feel that I have seen it somewhere, and I can't remember it......"

Qian Yixiu said secretly, Mrs. Song is different from Mrs. Zhang, she has no shortage of younger generations and several grandchildren. The distress she said should be unbearable for the children of poor families, but she is really a kind old lady.

Grandma Song Si smiled, "Old lady, you just said that you saw her last year, but you didn't look carefully, why did you forget where you saw her the next moment?" ”

The old lady shook her head and laughed, and said, "No, the old woman is really a little confused, and she talks upside down." ”

She pulled Qian Yixiu to look up and down, left and right, and said to Grandma Song Si, "I remember how many pieces of jewelry you bought for your two sisters in Baoji Silver Building?" ”

Grandma Song Si said, "Yes, I only got it back a few days ago." ”

The old lady said, "Take two pieces of jewelry and give them to Sister Xiu'er to wear, and when you leave, you will send two horses of material to make clothes for her." It's pitiful, the clothes are all tied up on the body, and they are taken on the edges, and they don't say that they are ready. ”

Qian Yixiu blushed a little, he had good clothes, but he didn't dare to wear them to the provincial capital.

Grandma Song Si smiled and ordered the girl behind her to say a few words, and the girl went out of the house.

Liang Jinzhao said with a smile, "Grandma likes this little girl, let her come to the provincial capital to play more in the future." He also talked about the fact that the little monk Hongji had a very good relationship with them, often went to their house to play, and the master of Grief gave them orders.

Everyone was a little surprised to hear that their relationship with the little master Hongji was so good. In particular, Master Beikong also gave them an order, you know, it is impossible for many royal relatives and nobles to ask him to calculate a hexagram, including their Song family.

These people looked at the little brothers and sisters even differently, and even the second Mrs. Song, who had always despised them, had a much more sincere smile on her face.

In fact, except for the old lady Song, the second master of Song and the old lady Song in Xizhou, who knew the true identity of the little master of Hongji, no one else knew. But seeing that he was able to be accepted as a closed disciple by Master Sorrow Kong at a young age, he already guessed that his identity was not ordinary. What's more, the old lady repeatedly told them to treat Hongji with courtesy. So they occasionally met Hongji in the temple, and they were all respectful.

The old lady smiled, "Yes, you will come to the provincial capital to play more in the future, if you don't have a place to live, you can come to live in our house." ”

Qian Yixiu thanked him and said that they lived in the fourth grandfather's house.

Grandma Song Si didn't let go of Qian Yijin until she finished softening, and the old lady beckoned him to go to her side again.

Song Huaijin said, "Grandma, another day, my great-grandson wants to go to their house with my cousin for a few days." I heard that a white wolf was rescued by his family, and not only often sent wild things to his family, but also gave birth to two puppies with his female dog. We've seen that little dog, it's pretty tight. ”

Everyone was amazed, and the Qian Yijin brothers and sisters talked about the white wolf and their own family, and also told some interesting stories in the countryside, which amused everyone.

The girl who went out came back, holding a Nanmu carved jewelry box in her hand. The girl came to the old lady and opened the box, which contained a jasper dragonfly hairpin, a gold-inlaid ruby carp hairpin, and a silver-inlaid beaded string hairpin. It's smaller than the one used by adults, and it's very delicate and cute.

This gift is a bit heavy, Qian Yixiu looked at it in a daze, not knowing whether to accept it or not.

The old lady stroked her head and said, "Good boy, we are destined for the young, you can take it, the elder will give it away." ”

Qian Yixiu listened, so he gave a salute next.

After the meal, the little brother and sister said goodbye and went home. Liang Jinzhao and Song Huaijin were going to Xishan County in a few days, so they made an appointment to go back together on the 27th.

Sister Lan, who had already played well with Qian Yixiu, was reluctant to let her go, and held her hand and didn't let go.

Qian Yixiu said with a smile, "In the future, if Sister Lan has the opportunity to go to Xishan County, she will come to my house to play." I'll let Brother Monkey and Ben Ben Jump show show you. ”

Sister Lan was very yearning, nodded and said, "Okay, I will definitely find a chance to go to your house to play." Later, when my embroidered sister came to Xizhou Mansion, she also came to play with me at home. ”

The little brother and sister came to the side door, and Qian Sangui and Wan Dazhong were already waiting there. The shopkeeper Cui is also there, and they made an appointment to go to the tooth store together tomorrow to buy people, and asked the shopkeeper Cui to help them palm their eyes. The Song Mansion sent a carriage to take them and the Song Mansion's return gift back to Qian Sigui's house.

The gift is a pen, ink, paper and inkstone for money, and two silks embroidered for money. When he returned home, Qian Sangui gave Qian Manpo two pens and one ink, and gave Qian Manting ten feet of silk.

Qian Sigui only understood a little, no wonder the third brother's family would become richer and richer, it turned out that they not only had a good relationship with the Zhang family of Baohetang, but also had a good relationship with the Song Mansion. Listening to the meaning of the third brother, it seems that he still has business dealings with Wuxi Tea House.

The Song family in Xizhou Mansion is one of the largest wealthy families in Ji'an Province. Nowadays, although the old lady has become a general, the eldest master is a big official in the capital, the second master is a five-grade official in Ji'an Province, and some grandchildren have also embarked on a career in office, and no one dares to mess with them when they walk sideways in Xizhou Mansion.

is very obedient, even if he is linked to the housekeeper of this family, he will no longer be afraid of those ruffians and hooligans.

Qian Sigui also sold the blue and white brew in the morning, and also sold it for one hundred and eighty taels of silver. Qinghua Brew is a tribute wine, which is very rare in the world, and it is not easy to buy even two hundred taels of silver.

Qian Sangui was overjoyed when he heard this, and asked him to find a big yard with a better port to make and sell dim sum, not just to save money.

Qian Sigui nodded yes.

The next morning, the shopkeeper Cui took a carriage to pick up Qian Sangui and went to the dental store to buy people. followed by a carriage, saying that the eldest young master of his family invited Qian Yixiu's brothers and sisters to go to Wuxi Tea House to listen to books.

Qian Yixiu's brother and sister took Qian Manting's sister and brother into the latter carriage. Today's Wan Dazhong is no longer courteous to his future father-in-law, and he cheekily got into the children's car, saying that he also likes to listen to books. Only Qian Hua followed Qian Sangui to buy people.

What kind of subordinates do you need at home, Qian Sangui and the little brothers and sisters have already reached a consensus, so Qian Yixiu is also very relieved to play.

The carriage departed from Qian Sigui's house, and had to walk through a cramped and dark alley, and also had to pass through an open-air market in Guò to reach the street. Passing by the market, Qian Yixiu suddenly found an old lady selling lotus seeds.

Qian Yixiu hurriedly stopped the carriage, she got out of the car and came to the old lady, whispered a few words to her, and after saying the price, she bought all her lotus seeds.

Qian Yijin wondered, "Sister, our lotus flower bears lotus seeds, why do you buy it?" ”

Qian Yixiu smiled and said, "Uncle Qian Hua said that our lotus root is safflower lotus, and I heard that white lotus root is more delicious." I wanted to ask the old woman if the lotus seeds were white lotus roots, but she said that the lotus seeds were bought by his son from Fanren. Because her house did not have a pond, she came to sell these lotus seeds. ”

asked Wan Dazhong again, "Uncle Wan, who is Fanren?" Is it the same as a foreigner? ”

Wan Dazhong smiled, "It should be the same." ”

Qian Yijin knew that the pearls that his grandfather bought from foreigners sold for a lot of money, thinking that the lotus seeds in his hands must not be wrong, so he pursed his lips and laughed. I think my sister is so smart that she can even buy such a good thing.

Wuxi Tea Shop in Xizhou Mansion is one of the best tea shops in Xizhou, and it is also on West Street, not far from Baoji Silver Building.

Wuxi Tea Workshop in Xishan County is a collection of buying tea, making tea, selling tea, and drinking tea in one, and it is said to be a tea house, but it is actually a tea shop. The main responsibility is to operate and manage, and also manage a large tea garden under the tea shop. Therefore, as the big shopkeeper, Shopkeeper Cui will always be there.

However, the Wuxi Tea Workshop in Xizhou Mansion only sells tea and drinks tea, and the decoration is a little more luxurious than the main store. Liang Gao was standing at the gate waiting for them, and when he saw them coming, he stepped forward and said with a smile, "Our young master and young master are listening to a book, and Mr. Storyteller is talking about the 'Three Kingdoms', which is very good." ”

With that, he took a few people to the hall on the second floor. I saw a high platform in the front, a high table in the middle of the platform, and a storyteller standing behind him.

There are many tables under the stage, there is tea on the table, or old brother dim sum, and many men sit at the table, leisurely drinking tea and eating snacks, while listening to the storytelling.

Liang Jinzhao and Song Huaijin were sitting at a table and listening energetically. When he saw them coming, he only motioned to sit down and continued to listen.

Qian Yijin was happy when he saw it, he had only heard of a storyteller, but he had never heard of it. Besides, he talked about the "Three Kingdoms" that he was most interested in, and he listened to it without even blinking his eyes.

As a modern person who has watched so many classic TV series, where can I still listen to the storytelling. After a while, Qian Yixiu yawned.

She couldn't bear to listen anymore, so she got up and whispered to Qian Yijin, "You keep listening, I want to go to Baoji Silver Building to have a look." ”

Qian Yijin wanted to continue listening, but he didn't worry about his sister going out by herself, so she was so entangled.

Liang Jinzhao said in a low voice, "Liang Gao will accompany the little girl on a trip." Seeing that he was a little reluctant, he said, "I'll let you listen to it for a day tomorrow." ”

Liang Gao smiled when he heard this.

Qian Yixiu said to Qian Yijin, "Brother, don't worry, Baoji Yinlou is not far away, and with Brother Liang by his side, nothing will happen." ”

She wanted to buy some jewelry for her little mother. I only bought it for my little aunt that day, and I forgot to buy it for my little mother.

Qian Yijin also knew that his sister was going to buy something for his little mother, so he whispered, "My brother's silver is on my sister, remember to help my brother buy a good thing for my mother, don't be stingy with silver." ”

As soon as you get out of the Wuxi Tea House, you can faintly see the Baoji Silver Building, and you will arrive in less than half an hour.

The business of the silver building is very good, more people go upstairs, and a few people pick it up downstairs.

That junior also knew Qian Yixiu. came over to greet her and said, "Sister is here again, are you selling or buying today?" ”

Qian Yixiu smiled, "I want to buy a hairpin for my mother." ”

"Oh, do you want to buy gold, silver, jade, or something else?" Xiao Er asked again.

Qian Yixiu thought about it, and the little lady who had gold and silver had it, so she said, "Take a small, plain hosta or beaded hairpin, well, it can't be too expensive, I don't have that much money." ”

Xiao Er listened, led her to a counter, took a few hairpins and put them in the tray, and let her choose.

There are three hostas and two hairpins inside, and Qian Yixiu fell in love with one at a glance. This hairpin is a silver inlaid pearl hairpin, a silver hairpin body, and a beautiful lotus flower at the top, and a white pearl the size of a pea on the flower. This pearl is big, but the luster is not good, and it is faintly yellowish, so it can't be sold for a price. However, this is not a big problem, and these imperfections are not visible from a distance.

This hairpin is delicate and beautiful, with lotus flowers and pearls, which can set off the purity and beauty of the beautiful little lady.

Qian Yixiu picked up the hairpin and looked at it again, and asked, "How do you sell this hairpin?" ”

Xiao Er said, "This hairpin sells for thirty taels of silver." ”

"It's so expensive, it's a robbery." Qian Yixiu exclaimed, "This hairpin is silver, and there is such a big yellow halo on the bead." ”

Xiao Er said, "This sister, take a good look, how fine the lotus carving on this hairpin is, and the beads are so big." If there is no yellow halo on the beads, the hairpin will be sold for at least 300 taels, and it will only be sold for 30 taels. (To be continued.) )
