The name of Xu Qijin's jade shop was chosen by Xu Qijin himself, called "Qiongju". From "Vote for me with papaya, repay it with Qiongju." Bandit retribution, always think it is good! "With the hope of a better future, the name of the shop used as a dowry shop could not be better.

As soon as I entered Qiongju, I saw that the shopkeeper Li was standing beside a man, and introduced to the jade pendant in the man's hand: "This is the best mutton fat jade, master, you see, this Wuzi Dengke jade pendant is very soft and moist, the water head is good, the jade material is smooth and transparent, condensed like mutton fat, showing a warm white with a slight yellow tone." It feels as smooth as baby's skin when touched with your hands, and the longer you play with it, the more oily it becomes. In addition, the jade carving master invited by the small shop is the well-known Master Mo. It's not that I'm boasting, I'm afraid that the entire Xijing City won't be able to find a better piece of mutton fat jade Wuzi Dengke jade pendant than this. ”

Xu Qirong nodded in his heart when he heard this, no wonder his sister's dowry shop is getting better and better, and this shopkeeper Li doesn't know how Uncle Gao found it, with a mouth, I am afraid that every one of the jade pendants sold in the entire capital can compare to him.

"That's it, you find a good-looking string for the master, and the master wants to give it as a gift!" The man with the jade pendant in his hand really listened to the more he listened, the more happy he became, and as soon as the shopkeeper Li's voice fell, he thought that the slightly expensive price was acceptable, and the business was immediately completed.

Shopkeeper Li hurriedly shouted to the apprentice behind him: "What are you doing in a daze, why don't you go and find a beautiful yarn for the master to wear!" ”

The apprentice hurriedly found a big red veil and gave the man a look, and then took the jade pendant from the man's hand, and put the jade pendant on it in front of the man. The man was satisfied. With a smile on his face, he paid the money, and the shopkeeper Li said some pleasing words and sent the man out.

It was only at this time that Shopkeeper Li found a little lady standing at the door.

Shopkeeper Li had not seen Xu Qirong before. Seeing that Xu Qirong entered the door but didn't come, he was just a little lady who came to buy jade pendants or other things, but he was shy and embarrassed to come forward. After sending away the man who bought the fifth son Dengke, Shopkeeper Li walked quickly to a place four steps away from Xu Qirong, bent over at Xu Qirong, and said flatteringly: "I don't know what this young lady wants to see when she comes to the shop?" The quality of the jade in the small shop is excellent. Jade raises people, people raise jade, and it is always beneficial to buy one or two pieces with you. ”

Xu Qirong didn't speak, pursed his lips and smiled.

Qiu Nao smiled and quipped, "You're a businessman." I just made a big business, and now I'm hitting my family again. ”

Shopkeeper Li's expression was staggered, a little dazed. Own family? How did he remember that Miss Xu Er should be two or three years older than the little lady in front of him!

Qiu Nong saw that Li was like this. There was another burst of laughter, and when the laughter was enough, he pointed to Xu Qirong and said to the shopkeeper Li seriously: "See clearly, this is the fifth lady of the Xu family." Your boss's own sister. ”

Shopkeeper Li was taken aback. Hurriedly patted his sleeve and greeted Xu Qirong inside, and said busily in his mouth: "The little one is scared, the fifth lady is standing in front of her, and the little one doesn't recognize it, it's really eye-catching." There are no good things here, only a pack of Junshan silver needles can still be taken a little, if the fifth lady doesn't dislike it, just sit down. The small ones immediately went to make tea. ”

Xu Qirong followed Shopkeeper Li to go inside and said, "Shopkeeper Li can't have seen me." It's understandable that I didn't recognize it. You don't have to be so nervous. ”

Shopkeeper Li breathed a sigh of relief, with some temptation in his tone, and asked, "Why did Fifth Miss come here at this time?" But if he liked something, he gave an order, and the little one immediately found it and presented it. A few days ago, Master Mo just carved a squirrel out of Shoushan stone, the size of a fist, lifelike. The little one heard that Miss Five had a squirrel as a small pet, so he left the stone carving of Nashou Mountain, and was planning to ask the senior executive to send it to Miss Five in a few days! ”

Don't blame Shopkeeper Li for being tempted, it's really Miss Xu's family affairs that have caused a storm in the city these days, Shopkeeper Li is the shopkeeper in Xu Qijin's dowry shop, so he naturally pays more attention to Xu Qirong than others. Therefore, he was not as convinced of the rumors outside as others, but had some suspicions, thinking that Miss Xu Er might have caused some trouble. Therefore, Miss Xu Wu came to the door at this time, and he had to be a little worried.

"Little squirrel? It's funny to listen to, and you have a heart. Xu Qirong paused, and didn't mind the tentative meaning in Shopkeeper Li's words, he didn't know, so he just said, "A few days ago, the senior executives told me that there were a few good seeds, but because they were too small, they didn't know what to do for the time being." Coincidentally, I fell in love with a bracelet, but the texture of the jade on it was too inferior, so I came to see if the seed material was still there. ”

Shopkeeper Li sighed, and then said with a smile: "The senior management didn't talk about this seed material with the little one. I think it's still in the hands of senior executives! ”

Xu Qirong bent the corners of his mouth, and Qiu Nong hurriedly said: "Then what are you doing in a daze, where is the senior management now?" Let people go and invite the senior management over, Miss Five has been thinking about the bracelet for several days, and she is in a hurry at this time! ”

"Tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, the executives have already said that the Mid-Autumn Festival will give everyone a day off, and today the executives are checking the accounts of one shop after another!" Shopkeeper Li hurriedly said, "Now the senior management should be on the side of Dama Street, and the little one will immediately send someone over to invite him." ”

turned around and walked out and shouted loudly: "Little Wuzi, quick, go to Zhi Yaxuan on Dama Street to see if the senior management is there, if you are there, please ask the senior management to come over, and say that the second lady is here." If you're not there, go to the shop on Erheng Street to have a look. Hurry up, the master is waiting here! ”

Then he heard a loud "eh" from a half-sized boy, and ran outside.

When Shopkeeper Li came in again, he was holding a teapot in his hand, and while carefully pouring tea for Xu Qirong, he said: "Fifth Miss, don't worry, Xiao Wuzi runs fast, if the senior executives are in Zhiyaxuan, it is estimated that a cup of tea will come over." ”

Xu Qirong pursed his lips and smiled, and nodded at Shopkeeper Li.

The shopkeeper Li's skill in making tea is not bad, a pot of Junshan silver needles was soaked by him to a high aroma, and the teacup reflecting the white jade seems to be yellow and high, the buds are strong, the strips are really even, and the white is like a feather, I can't help but take a sip, but the taste is mellow and sweet.

Xu Qirong was a little surprised, and couldn't help but say: "Shopkeeper Li is versatile. ”

Shopkeeper Li was not modest, and said with a smile: "There are few people who don't like tea, and if they don't have it, they don't dare to go to the guests to offer ugliness." ”

Midori Ran, who had never spoken, couldn't help but interject: "Just this hand to make tea, I'm afraid that there will be many people rushing to invite the shopkeeper to come into the house to do things!" ”

Shopkeeper Li smiled flatteringly: "That's not as much money as making tea and selling jade pendants." ”

This is said in a cheesy manner, and the flattering expression makes people a little annoyed to look at it, but Shopkeeper Li is indeed a capable person, and he said this sentence with a flattering appearance, and it was pleasing to watch.

Xu Qirong's annoyance caused by the uneasiness in his heart couldn't help but dissipate a little when he heard this.

There is a saying that "the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth", and the matter is solved. She was born in the Xu family, and it can be said that she is well-dressed and well-fed, but the shopkeeper Li is old, but he is still thinking about how to earn a little more silver with his own skills. Compared to later, this little thing about yourself is really not worth feeling sorry for.

Shopkeeper Li saw that Xu Qirong's face looked much better than when he entered the door before, and knew that he spoke well and pleased his master, so he was busy picking up nice words to tease Xu Qirong.

As he was talking, Xiao Wuzi had already led the senior management over. Xiao Wuzi's movements are really fast, Xu Qirong hasn't finished drinking this cup of tea yet!

The senior executive came in and greeted Xu Qirong first, and then said, "Why did Miss Fifth go out at this time?" But what's the matter? On the way just now, I heard Xiao Wuzi say what kind of seed material does Miss Wu want? ”

Qiu Nong saw the opportunity, used his chubby hand to pull the hand of the green dye, and said to the shopkeeper Li seriously: "Are there any strange and cheap gadgets in the shop?" The maidservant has a friend who has a birthday and wants to pick one for her. Then he turned to Midori and said, "Sister Midori has a good eye, come and help my sister pick one!" ”

Before Midori could nod, he heard Xu Qirong say, "Go, the executives are not outsiders, it's okay." I'll call you when you're gone. ”

So, Midori had no choice but to follow Shopkeeper Li outside with Qiu Nong.

When everyone was gone, Xu Qirong lowered his voice and asked Uncle Gao: "I asked you to pay attention to Daddy's movements before, what is abnormal about Daddy's behavior when he goes out recently?" ”

Gao Bo thought for a while, shook his head and said: "A few days ago, the fourth master took the fourth brother to visit friends everywhere unusually, and introduced the fourth brother to his friends in a serious manner, which is quite a bit of a sense of asking them to take care of the fourth brother more in the future. However, since the opening of the ancestral hall, the fourth master has become normal, and when he goes out every day, he talks about calligraphy and painting with his friends, travels around the lake, and climbs Xifeng Mountain twice. Because the top of the mountain is a nunnery, they turn back every time they reach the halfway point of the mountain. As before, I really can't see anything unusual in this. ”

Xu Qirong frowned, whispered about the rumors between his sister and Du Dagongzi, and then said: "There is obviously something wrong here, I only thought that there was something bad about Du Dagongzi and I couldn't find my daughter-in-law, so I stalked my sister." But later, Du Dagongzi came to the door, and when he saw Du Dagongzi's maids, they all said that Du Dagongzi was born with a talent. Moreover, as a sister and Yu Wangfu, if the eldest prince Du is not good, the second lady will not let him harm my sister. After thinking about it, I can only guess that someone is secretly playing ghosts. ”

Contacted about what Xu Qirong asked about the fourth master Xu before, Gao Bo was taken aback, and was a little confused: "Fifth miss suspects the fourth master?" (To be continued......)
