Chapter Twenty-Six: Goodbye Begonias Like a Separate World
Xiao Zihuan and Shu Wangjin had a meal, and then they smiled again, and said warmly, "Shu Dangjia, Xiaosheng's pawnshop received a good thing a few days ago, why don't Shu Dangjia go with me to take a look?" If there is fate, Xiaosheng should be given to Shu Dangjia. ”
"Oh? I don't know what it is? Shu Wangjin followed Xiao Zihuan downstairs and replied casually, this Xiao Zihuan is really weird, if it is just to invite himself to dinner, there is no need to go to such great lengths.
Xiao Zihuan slowly hooked the smile on the corner of his mouth, and smiled so kindly, "It's a girl who was a hairpin in Xiaosheng's place, and the guys in the shop refused to accept it, but it happened that Xiaosheng was also there that day, so he took it upon himself to accept the hairpin, and he was supposed to be a favor." ”
Xiao Zihuan's pawnshop was next to Zhenwei Building, so it didn't take long for a few people to arrive at the shop, and the young man saw that it was his owner, so he hurriedly delivered a brocade box to him, and then went to the back to do his own business.
"Shu Dangjia, please see ......" Xiao Zihuan slowly opened the brocade box in his hand little by little, only to see an emerald green hairpin lying quietly in the center of the brocade box, and the fiery red petals on the top made the corners of people's eyes seem to be dyed red.
Shu Wangjin's hands hanging down his sleeves couldn't help but tremble, and there was still no expression on his face, just staring at the hairpin coldly and indifferently.
Shu Zhou came late, naturally he didn't know the origin of this hairpin, and he exclaimed in a lost voice, "What a beautiful hairpin!" "He has been in the capital for so long, and he has never seen a few hairpins that can compare to this begonia hairpin, except for the "Flying Phoenix Shake" a few years ago, this hairpin is more brilliant.
"This begonia spring is not only good-looking, but also a new product of Luo Zhenfang this year, Xiaosheng heard that Luo Zhenfang also listed this hairpin as a tribute to the royal family, and later ...... It seems to have been given to Shu Dangjia, right? Xiao Zihuan gently stroked the begonia spring and smiled gently, "Therefore, as soon as I saw this hairpin, Xiao Sheng personally bought it, and the girl said that she wanted to be five hundred taels of silver, so Xiao Sheng asked the guy in the shop to take five hundred taels of silver tickets for the girl...... Speaking of which, even if it is such an outstanding place in the water town in the south of the Yangtze River, there are few women who can compare to the vitality of that girl. ”
The corners of Shu Wangjin's mouth twitched slightly, his face was silent, but there was a little condensation in his tone, "Xiao Gongzi, please come down here just to watch a hairpin?" If this is the case, there is still an urgent matter below, so I won't bother Xiao Gongzi. ”
After saying that, Shu Wangjin shook his hand and saluted Xiao Zihuan, then turned around and left with a frosty aura, causing Shu Zhou to chase after him, and muttered quietly in his mouth.
"Young master, is it really okay for us to leave like this......"
No one messed with him, why is he upset again? Moreover, the young master has always thought that harmony can make money, and even if he was unhappy before, he would not throw other people's face like this, what happened recently, first Wu Lao, the former head of the Tai Hospital, and now the family of Jiangnan......
Shu Wangjin was in a state of shock and anger in his heart, when a person suddenly caught up behind him, but it was Xiao Zihuan's Tsing Yi servant, who humbly held a brocade box and said to him respectfully, "Shu Dangjia, this is a gift from my son-in-law, please accept it." ”
Shu Zhou also rushed up, and happened to see Shu Wangjin staring at the brocade box with an unpredictable expression, as if he wanted to see a hole in it.
He thought to Zhi Duoxing, who thought he was his master, and when he saw Shu Wangjin like this, he thought that he was attracted by the hairpin with the begonia pattern inside, and immediately took the brocade box with a smile on his face, and said to the little guy in Tsing Yi with a smile, "Please ask this little brother to reply to your son-in-law, just say that my young master cherishes this hairpin very much." ”
Shu Zhou said that his subordinates kept stuffing a small brocade bag to the little guy in Tsing Yi, and the little guy in Tsing Yi checked it, and noticed that the weight in it was not light, and he was full of smiles and Shu Wangjin retreated.
Shu Wangjin seemed to be suddenly alert, and immediately took the brocade box in Shu Zhou's hand and couldn't wait to open it......
The brocade box is covered with high-quality red silk brocade, the tentacles are smooth and comfortable, and the hairpin with the begonia pattern in the center is not ordinary, the water head is excellent, and what is even more rare is that a few begonia flowers are carved out with the gradient color of jade, which is indeed Luo Zhenfang's handiwork......
Shu Wangjin held the hairpin in his hand, and the strength of his whole body seemed to have been drained, he looked at it for a long time before he sighed gloomily and said, "Let's go back to Beijing." ”
He remembered Lin Mei's abnormality in the past few days, as well as the desire to talk every time he met, and only felt that he was in an ice cellar, and even swallowed ice scum in his mouth.
Shu Zhou looked at Shu Wangjin in surprise, opened his mouth wide and felt a little incredulous, "Back to Beijing?" Right now? "Didn't the young master say that he was going to Linshan County? I can figure out that he went back to pick up Lin Mei, why did he suddenly change his mind again now......
Shu Wangjin glanced at Shu Zhou expressionlessly, and said coldly, "Isn't our carriage just outside the city?" ”
"Yes, yes...... Naturally, I will return to the capital immediately, isn't the little one afraid that the young master will be tired? Shu Zhou salivated, feeling so unhappy, he had the first-hand news of the house again, and this time he went back to talk to those maids and servants......
And here in Linshan County, Lin Mei and Xiahou Linlang sat in the house unhappy and did their own work, without Shu Wangjin, the fight between them naturally had no meaning, so it was rare to stop for a day without conflict.
"Miss Lin, when did you say that Master Shu will come back...... "Xiahou Linlang embroidered flowers in her hands, and the koi fish on the brocade were like live fish, and the embroidery was not worse than those embroiderers in Suzhou and Hangzhou.
Lin Mei was lying half-dead on her dresser at this time, Haitang Chun couldn't find it at all, which made her unable to lift her spirits for a day, even Xiahou Linlang's question was answered in a weak voice, "If you should come back, you will naturally come back, besides, Shu Wangjin is not from here in the first place, maybe he went back to the capital directly to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with his family......"
When Xiahou Linlang heard her say this, she couldn't help but redden, and she dragged the Jinpa in her hand, "That's right...... Shu Gongzi is going to return to Beijing after all......"
"Xiahou Linlang, isn't your home from the capital?" Lin Mei was suddenly a little curious, this Wu Lao only started to live in seclusion in Jinzhou City a few years ago, so his daughter should have been married in the capital, but how could this Xiahou Linlang live in Jinzhou City with Wu Lao, and what about her parents?
Xiahou Linlang's expression suddenly froze for a moment, and then his eyes dimmed, "Linlang's parents died, and now she is just an abandoned child, and it is easier to follow her grandfather." ”
In those families, women whose parents are dead and have no brother support are simply harder than the daughters of poor families, without the protection of their parents and brothers, whether it is the uncle and aunt in the second room or the grandfather and grandmother of the in-laws, they are all cold-eyed, just because a woman like her can no longer find a good marriage partner for the family, so that the glory of the family can be taken to a higher level.
Xiahou Linlang was bullied in Xiahou's house, and was forcibly driven out of Xiahou's house by his uncle and aunt, and then met Shu Wangjin, who had just returned to the capital from the coastal areas of Jiangsu and Zhejiang.
