Chapter 120: A Chance Encounter

Because of Tong Xue's refusal, her marriage with He Zhizhou had to be abandoned.

However, since then, He Zhizhou has lived in the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion as a guest under the insistence of Tong Jingxuan.

Approaching the end of the year, it coincided with He Zhizhou Mu Xiu, Lu called Tong Xue to the Rising Sun Hall later in the first night, "Tomorrow's Zhou Mu Xiu, it coincides with the New Year's Pass, I want to take him to the ready-to-wear store to buy a few clothes, and by the way, go to the Jade House to have a look, and add you a few pieces of jewelry, what do you think?" ”

When Tong Xue heard this, she immediately lowered her face, "If my mother wants him to accompany her, my son will stay in the house." ”

Lu sighed when he heard this, "Ah Jin, my father and mother didn't think about it before, I have discussed it with your father, you don't want to, we won't marry, and you don't have any prejudice against that child in Zhizhou, so can it be done?" ”

Tong Xue has no prejudice against He Zhizhou.

She had already seen the true face of this person in her previous life!

"In short, I was born to deal with him, mother, no matter how much you say, it's useless!"

When Lu heard this, he had to sigh deeply.

On the second day, I really only took Sister Tong Xue and Tong Shuang out.

Tong Ning was too young, so he was handed over to the nurse to take care of in the house.

Lu went to the ready-to-wear store first, compared with He Zhizhou's figure, and gave him several winter clothes, and then took the two sisters to the Jade House.

Jade has lived in Beijing for hundreds of years, and the shopkeeper is a half-hundred old man who smiles and looks very kind, and hears that his owner has a strong background, but no one knows his true identity.

The jewelry of the jade house, in addition to the precious materials. The most rare thing is that its design is exquisite, generous, extravagant, low-key, luxurious, all kinds of designs are available, can meet the needs of different family ladies, is to these years has been prosperous, deeply loved by the circle of ladies in Beijing.

When Lu took Sister Tong Xue into the store, there were already brightly dressed women in the lobby on the first floor, with little ladies who had also been carefully decorated, gathered in twos and threes, looking at the jewelry heads and faces displayed on the Bogu shelves.

"Madame came to the shop. The little one is polite. The little guy who greeted the door bowed excitedly.

Lu nodded. With a slight smile on his face, he handed a sign to the little guy.

"Madame, upstairs, please." The little maid led Tong Xue and his party into the private room of the second room of the Son of Heaven on the second floor.

After the three of them sat down, the little girl smiled and asked, "I wonder what kind of ornaments Madame plans to choose, so that the little one can pick it up and look at you?" ”

Lu Shi glanced at Tong Xue and Tong Shuang. "Take some ornaments from little girls their age. Be subtle. Something unique. ”

The little guy nodded.

After a while, a white-faced shopkeeper with a smile on his face personally carried a tray. The plate is filled with various headdresses and jewelry in delicate brocade boxes, which are placed on the table beside Lu's side.

The white-faced shopkeeper bowed down and opened the brocade boxes one by one, presenting the ornaments inside in front of Lu and the others, "Please take a look at Madame, do you have a favorite?" ”

Lu nodded.

picked up a pair of turquoise earrings and looked at them, his eyes slid over Tong Xue's crystal full earlobes, and nodded: "This pair of jade earrings is set." ”

Then, he looked at Jin Buyao, Feng Hairpin and other things, and gave Tong Xue a pair of heads, and another pair of bead flowers and a pair of bracelets for Tong Shuang.

About half an hour later, after selecting a variety of things, Lu got up, "I am tired of the shopkeeper sending the things to the house, and there will be an account room to settle the account." ”

"Yes. Thank you, Madame, and go slowly. The shopkeeper smiled and sent the group out.

The general walked to the door, and the door of the next house was pushed open from the outside.

The group met each other.

"Tong Da?" An unexpected voice appeared in the crowd.

The eldest prince, Zhu Yousheng, squeezed out from his cousin's side and walked up to Tong Xue in three or two, "I haven't seen you for a few days, why are you looking a little more mellow than before?" ”

Tong Xue resisted the urge to roll her eyes, this person can't speak, don't talk nonsense!

Obviously, it was cold, and she wore a thick coat, so she must have been fat before.

Seeing that he was the eldest prince, the Lu family had to take Sister Tong Xue to salute.

"Madam, you're welcome, this palace is going out in micro-clothes this time, and you will treat this palace as an ordinary junior." The eldest prince said, turned his head to the expressionless Li brothers and sisters behind him and said, "Li Qing, you said that's the truth. ”

Li Yan took his sister Li Ling forward and saluted the Lu family, "I have seen Mrs. Dingyuan Hou." ”

Tong Xue and Tong Shuang had no choice but to return the gift.

"Big brother." Tong Shuang stood beside Tong Xue and smiled shyly at Li Yan.

Li Yan also smiled at her with a gentle expression, "I haven't seen you for a few months, Second Miss Li has grown taller." ”

"It's been five months!" Tong Shuang muttered in a low voice: "I naturally grew taller." ”

Li Yan couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.

"Tong Da, it's hard for me to get out of the palace once, you see, Li Xiaoqi and Li Xiaoba have accompanied me to clean up the shop, you are not only the friendship of the landlord?" The eldest prince leaned over to Tong Xue with a familiar face.

Tong Xue tugged at the corners of her mouth, and said pretendly: "It's really not a coincidence today, the courtiers went out with their mothers, they didn't expect to meet His Highness, and now they are busy rushing home, if the next time His Highness leaves the palace, give the courtiers a post in advance, and the courtiers can also entertain His Highness." ”

"Hmmm! I didn't think about it, you are quite righteous! The eldest prince patted Tong Xue's shoulder kindly, "That's right!" I just saw a pair of agate bracelets that are perfect for you, why don't I buy them and give them to you as a gift? ”

"With so many people watching, it's not a private gift, right?" The eldest prince winked at Tong Xue, with a look of "Look, how witty I am!" "Look.

Tong Xue almost wanted to open the brains of these two goods to see if they were full of paste.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness, no need!"

"Yes! Yes! You're welcome! The eldest prince waved his hand and said to the shopkeeper, "Bring that pair of agate bracelets, I see that it matches Tong Daping!" ”

The smile on the shopkeeper's face was a little reluctant.

Tong Xue knew that with the personality of the eldest prince, he would give himself a gift with kindness.

However, the pair of agate bracelets were still presented to Tong Xue.

Tong Xue looked at the pair of bracelets, then at the eldest prince, and finally looked at her mother Lu.

Anyway, she doesn't want to worry too much about this second-class prince, what to do is still up to her mother.

Lu glanced at the pair of bracelets with disgust, "Your Highness has a good intention, the courtiers have received it for the little girl, but it is useless, and the courtiers can't accept this gift." ”

"Madame, don't!"

The eldest prince was about to say something, but was interrupted by the Lu family domineeringly, "The courtiers still want to take the two little girls to buy some other things, Your Highness, please take care of yourself." After speaking, he took Tong Xue with one hand and Tong Shuang with the other, saluted the eldest prince, and went downstairs under the guidance of the shopkeeper.

The eldest prince looked at the hurried steps of the mother and daughter, and was a little confused.

"Li Xiaoqi, Xiaoba, tell me, this bracelet is really that ugly?"

Li Yan had a cold and handsome face, and nodded unceremoniously.

Li Ling's expression on his face was the same as that of the three of them, and even his movements were highly consistent.

"Pick up the bracelet." The eldest prince commanded the shopkeeper with some worry. And made up his mind in his heart that he must marry a like-minded princess in the future, and with this pair of bracelets, he felt that he was beautiful. (To be continued......)
