Chapter 123: Xie Wu (Second Watch)
Wan Sanniang has a pleasing appearance and a straightforward temperament, which is very favored by the two sisters An Ruolan.
After hearing that An Ruolan wanted to buy jewelry, she did not look down at An Ruolan because she was young, but patiently inquired carefully.
"What kind of jewelry do you want to buy? Give it away or wear it for yourself? ”
Wan Sanniang's voice is not good, but her timbre is mellow and her tone is gentle, which makes people feel soft in their hearts.
An Ruolan felt at ease, so he replied loudly: "If you want to give it away, I don't know what to buy, so you can take some of the well-selling jewelry in the store and take a look." ”
After a pause, he felt that he was saying something as if he were talking nonsense, so he said, "I have silver." ”
Wan Sanniang and An Ruojin were both amused by this innocent remark, Wan Sanniang responded repeatedly, and asked patiently: "Does the little lady want to see the jewelry worn by the ladies and wives, or the jewelry worn by the girls and ladies?" ”
There is a big gap between the two.
This question is simple, An Ruolan said: "It's for girls and young ladies to wear." ”
An Ruojin added with a smile on the side, "She wants to give it to the sisters in the house, who are all about ten years old." ”
"The young ladies have a really good relationship, which is enviable." Wan Sanniang smiled and squinted her eyes and praised, and said, "Wait a minute, the two young ladies will go and get some jewelry for the two of them to choose." ”
With that, he turned around and walked out of the private room, and after a while, he came in with two trays covered with red velvet, one large and one small.
"The two young ladies pick slowly, the slave family is waiting on the side, and if you have any orders, you will call." Wan Sanniang put the big tray on the table and sat aside with a smile with the small tray.
The two of them were immediately attracted by the shiny jewelry in the large tray.
It is not an exaggeration to say that there are many kinds of jewelry, which are full of trays, many and miscellaneous, but not messy, and they are more and more eye-catching against the background of red velvet.
An Ruojin picked up a pair of golden butterfly earrings and couldn't put it down.
Don't look at the butterfly is small, but the wings are hollow and carved, the posture is natural, as if the next moment to flutter the wings and fly away, the end is lifelike, no wonder the gold and silver building can dominate one side in the east of the city, this craft is indeed extraordinary.
An Ruolan knew that she had taken a fancy to her, so she asked, "How do you sell this pair of earrings?" ”
Wan Sanniang smiled: "Five taels of silver." ”
He also said, "Miss has a good eye, this is the best earring earring sold in our store." ”
If it were an ordinary person, when she heard a pair of earrings and asked for five taels of silver, she was afraid that she would shout loudly, but An Ruolan didn't look at it, who told her that she had already lived a life of spending a lot of money in her previous life?
took the earrings in An Ruojin's hand and took a look, they were indeed delicate and beautiful, so she nodded without hesitation and said, "I want this pair." Then he folded his hands and counted them, and said, "Bring me five more pairs of the same." ”
"Huh! I'll give it to the little lady when I check out. Wan Sanniang responded with a smile and handed the small tray in her hand to her.
An Ruolan put the butterfly stud earrings in, lowered her head and picked them up again.
An Ruojin was taken aback by her wealth, a pair of earrings cost five taels of silver, she also asked for six pairs in one go, and then there are a lot of things to buy, can they afford it?
Taking advantage of Wan Sanniang's introduction of other jewelry, An Ruojin quietly approached An Ruolan's ear and asked in a low voice, "Sister Lan, how much silver did you bring out?" ”
An Ruolan was picking up, and after hearing this, she thought about it, and said, "I took out all the New Year's money, there are about ......" She calculated, "At least five or six hundred taels." ”
"......" Hearing this number, An Ruojin was relieved at the same time, but she was also envious and jealous, her age this year is less than two hundred taels! But after thinking about it, she was relieved again, there is an aunt who is a princess, what is a few hundred taels of age?
An Ruojin really didn't think wrong, more than half of the silver in An Ruolan's hand was given by Meng Yuyan, and even Zhao Yi gave her a big red envelope of fifty taels, so An Ruolan will become a little rich after the New Year.
With the silver, the confidence is enough, An Ruojin also let go of her hand and picked it up with great interest.
The two sisters picked and chose two pairs of gourd earrings inlaid with white jade and gold, a pair of gold silk ball earrings, a pair of flower-shaped earrings inlaid with red jade and silver, three pearl hairpins of different colors, and two tulle silk flowers with hibiscus and stamen.
Wan Sanniang had a good eye, and when she saw that the two sisters didn't pick out the one she liked, she said, "The two young ladies have picked out?" ”
An Ruolan didn't nod, turned her head and asked, "I still want to see the jewelry worn by the ladies and wives." ”
Since you want to give gifts, you can't leave a few aunts behind.
"Little Miss is going to give it to the elders in the family?" Wan Sanniang's smile became more and more kind.
"Hmm." An Ruolan nodded, and then asked, "Do you have jewelry in your store that is suitable for the elderly to wear?" I'd like to pick a few for my grandmother as well. ”
She had already planned a congratulatory gift for her grandmother, but that didn't prevent her from giving her a gift, and besides, she went out under this guise.
"Little Miss is so filial." Wan Sanniang praised sincerely, she went out to the private room again, and this time she still brought a tray in, the difference is that this time the tray is full of jewelry that is popular among the ladies and wives.
An Ruolan took a look and saw that they were all colorful, and asked, "Why didn't you see the old man wearing it?" ”
"There's no hurry." Wan Sanniang smiled, put down the tray, and said, "The two young ladies will pick it up first, and the slave family will go and get it." ”
With that, he lifted the beaded curtain and entered the inner room.
Seeing this, An Ruolan concentrated on choosing the gifts for the aunts, and An Ruojin gave her opinions on the side.
The two sisters had a discussion, and they quickly picked it out, only to find that Wan Sanniang was standing at the table with a Nanmu box, and she didn't know when she came back.
"Here is a set of small heads, warm jade carved silk forehead, six orchid white hostas, and a pair of tourmaline earrings, the most dignified and generous, very suitable for the elderly to wear."
Wan Sanniang smiled, opened the box as she spoke, and the two sisters looked at it, which was really atmospheric.
An Ruolan stroked the white hosta, the tentacles were warm and smooth, and the luster color was good, it was really good, although it was not as good as the mutton fat and jade she wore in her previous life, it could be regarded as on the table.
Naturally, the price is not cheap either.
When I asked, I found out that this set cost three hundred taels of silver.
An Ruojin silently pressed her heart, An Ruolan also knew that the silver was not enough, pinched her ears, and she said to Wan Sanniang abruptly: "Sanniang, I probably didn't bring so much silver." ”
The word credit, she really didn't have the face to say it.
In her previous life, she had endless silver, and this was the first time she spent silver in this life, so she really didn't expect to encounter such a dilemma.
Seeing that she said so calmly, Wan Sanniang didn't know whether to be funny or angry.
After thinking about it, the other party was just a seven or eight-year-old girl, and she felt that this straightforward and cute was tight.
Thinking like this, Wan Sanniang had the idea of teasing, and asked pretending to be troubled: "Is the jewelry that the little lady picked before?" Or is this set of heads and faces gone? ”
"I want to ......" said this, An Ruolan's face turned red.
An Ruojin covered her face on the side, not knowing what to do.
Seeing that the two delicate and lovely girls were so embarrassed, Wan Sanniang was not easy to tease and ruthless, so she said: "Why don't you calculate for the young ladies first, how much silver do you need for the previous jewelry?" ”
The two sisters naturally had no other way than to nod.
So, Wan Sanniang settled the money outside, and the two sisters hid inside to count the silver, and when Wan Sanniang counted it, they also counted it.
"The previous jewelry was three hundred taels of silver, and with that set of small heads, it was six hundred taels of silver." Wan Sanniang said with a smile, and the abacus in her hand shook the ground.
This is the result of her removing the fraction.
Although six hundred taels of silver is a lot, fortunately, the two of them can afford it.
An Ruolan, who counted the more than seven hundred taels of silver he had brought, exhaled secretly.
Fortunately, the face is saved.
Since the silver is enough, it is natural to take all the things, An Ruolan waved his hand generously: "Pack it all!" ”
Wan Sanniang covered her lips and chuckled, and said, "Since the little lady has taken it all, then the slave family will be the master of the matter and show sincerity." She picked out a pair of jade rabbit stud earrings and a butterfly headband from the tray, and said with a smile: "This is for the two young ladies." ”
Both of these things were picked by An Ruolan just now, but because she couldn't make up her mind, she didn't buy them.
It can be seen that Wan Sanniang is thoughtful and can figure out people's opinions, and this favor is in place.
An Ruolan and An Ruojin glanced at each other, and said with a smile: "Thank you Sanniang!" ”
Wan Sanniang put away the jewelry, handed over the things to Bailing, and after settling the bill, An Ruolan and his party went down the east stairs and prepared to leave through the side door.
"Sister Ruojin!"
A call with excitement and joy came from behind him, and An Ruojin, who was about to step out of the threshold, subconsciously turned around, but saw a young man in brocade clothes walking briskly here.
When she got closer, An Ruojin recognized that person was the fifth young master of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion at a glance.
Busy covering her face with a handkerchief, An Ruojin quietly took a step back.
An Ruolan also turned around, and when he saw a man coming, he took a step forward and stopped in front of An Ruojin.
A marriageable woman who has not left the cabinet cannot let a man look at it at will.
The man didn't go over the rules, he stopped three steps away, and bowed his hand and said, "It's abrupt in the bottom, and I still hope that Sister Ruojin has a lot." He said happily: "I haven't seen you for a long time, I don't know how Sister Ruojin is doing recently?" ”
As he spoke, a pair of slender eyes stared at An Ruojin.
An Ruojin frowned without moving, and bowed her head and said, "Gongzi Xie is polite." ”
Hearing this, the man frowned disapprovingly, and said with a smile: "Sister Ruojin is too polite, you can call me Fifth Brother Xie." ”
Surname Xie? An Ruolan frowned, having a bad premonition.
The next moment, she heard An Ruojin say: "Sister Lan, this is the fifth prince of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion. ”
Xie Wu of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion!
An Ruolan had a loud alarm bell in her heart, isn't this her short-lived brother-in-law in her previous life?
Before she could react, An Ruojin introduced to Xie Wu again: "Gongzi Xie, this is my sister, ranked sixth, and she is the daughter of the fifth uncle of the little girl. ”R1152
