Chapter 944: The Future Faces That Matter
The climate in spring is changeable, the sun is shining one moment, and the next moment the wind and clouds change color and rain is pouring down, the people in Beijing are very experienced, when you go out in spring, you have to bring rain gear just in case.
Although the envoys of the Eastern Yasukuni came a few times more than the Northern Qi people, they were helpless against the fickle weather of Dayan.
He called the accompanying steward over, and while admiring the white jade depiction of gold and plum teacups, he asked, "The things that Mei Duo explained are almost the same, right?" ”
"A few things missing." The steward had already taken it to heart, and answered it as soon as he heard the question of the prince.
After asking what were still missing, the son of the Sun Lie sighed, "Children are debts!" ”
The housekeeper laughs with him, it's true that his children are in debt, but ordinary people don't spend so much money raising their daughters! Their Miss Mei Duo was born with a beautiful face and moon appearance, if Quan Dongjing recognized the second, no one would dare to recognize the first, and she has always been a treasure held in the palm of her hand by two generations of masters.
I thought that the marriage with the Qiang Department was a good family affair, who knew that good things are grinding, Miss Mei Duo was not happy, in order to coax her, the princess moved out all the good things in the house for her to choose, but Miss Mei Duo was stunned to look at the silk brocade of Dayan, as well as the gold and silver jewelry of Dayan people, and the steward bowed his head and checked the list opened by Miss Mei Duo one by one.
If you want him to say, he thinks it is still the craftsmanship of their Dongjing craftsmen, each piece of jewelry is full of materials, which is like Dayan's jewelry, what is tired of gold engraving, the pattern is very exquisite, and it looks beautiful is beautiful. But the materials are so picky!
And it's expensive to die!
The price of one piece of these jewelry can buy several of the most fashionable jewelry in Dongjingguo, how does he know? Before the envoy arrived in Dayan, his daughter had just been engaged, and the family prepared a dowry for her, so he naturally knew the price of these gold and silver jewelry, if it weren't for the master's power, his daughter really couldn't afford those dowries.
Fortunately, when he goes back, his daughter-in-law will enter the door! His daughter-in-law's dowry was fifty sheep, ten cows, and a pair of fine horses, which was worth it!
The prince of the sun took a look at the distracted steward. He glanced at the attendant next to him. The attendant hurriedly pushed the steward, and the steward came back to his senses and hurriedly prostrated himself to plead guilty.
"I remember that your daughter is also getting married?"
"Yes. Shizi's memory is really good. The steward hurriedly patted it slightly.
Rilie Shizi turned his head to look out the window, and the rain was sliding down the roof tiles. Form a curtain in front of the window. "I don't know how long this rain will fall. You go to the jewelry store and ask them to send me the jewelry for me to choose. ”
The steward was busy and turned to go out. When they passed by, the envoys of the Eastern Qi who were bored playing under the verandah couldn't help but say a few words of ridicule, the people of the Northern Qi Dynasty were not fuel-efficient lamps, and the two sides fought back and forth.
The steward stroked his forehead, turned his head and explained that one of his attendants hurriedly went to inform the prince, while he took the umbrella from the other attendant and walked a few steps down the steps, preferring to walk into the courtyard that had accumulated a shallow layer of water rather than deal with the Northern Qi people.
After walking for a while, the carriage came out of the Sifang Pavilion, and the steward breathed a sigh of relief, leaning on the carriage and closing his eyes to recuperate.
Arrived at the agreed jewelry building, the shopkeeper has been waiting in the building, to hear the steward's intentions, the shopkeeper is quite embarrassed, with jewelry for the guests to choose the thing, they have not done it, but today's weather is really bad, if it is not for the nobles of the East Yasukuni have already made an appointment to see the jewelry, they will not be still in the building now, long ago closed the door and went home!
The rain is really a bit evil today, so that the shopkeeper looks at it, and his heart is beating as if something is going to happen.
He looked at the steward of the son of the sun with some uneasiness, could it be that it should be done to him? So should he bring his jewelry and go to the Sifang Pavilion with him?
Seeing this, a guy in the building hurriedly approached the shopkeeper and suggested in a low voice, "Didn't we ask someone to paint all the jewelry in our building into a book?" If they really want to pick thorns, they will say that the proprietor stipulates that they can only take the album out of the building for the guests to pick. ”
The shopkeeper nodded, got up and said to the steward, but the steward was amused, "Take the album and pick it for our son?" This is the attitude of your Dayan people in doing business? ”
"Please forgive me, this is our host's rule." The shopkeeper didn't say a word, and directly showed the jewelry album in their building to the steward.
The steward admired while looking at it, every piece of jewelry in this album was so beautiful that it made people's hearts move, and he wanted him to say it! Instead of spending a lot of money to buy the famous works of that great painter in the auction building, it is better to buy such an album and go back!
The shopkeeper saw that his eyebrows moved lightly, and he hurriedly agitated his tongue for three inches, and finally persuaded the steward to take this album and go to the Sifang Pavilion with him.
When the prince saw such a beautiful jewelry picture, he couldn't wait to leave this album and take it back to his daughter and wife to see, so he bargained with the shopkeeper for him, and bought nearly half of the jewelry in the album, and the shopkeeper gave him the album.
The shopkeeper never expected this to happen, and he pretended to be embarrassed on his face, but in fact, his heart was already happy, and after the prince of the sun and the prince paid the money, the shopkeeper got up to say goodbye.
"Let's keep this album!"
"Shizi, I have to let the little one take it back to his life! The album is just like this, if you don't take it back, how can it be good if you give the wrong jewelry? ”
It seems to make sense, "Then you remember, when you send the jewelry, remember to send the album as well." ”
"Huh!" The shopkeeper got up with a smile on his face and said goodbye.
The negotiation was a big deal, and the shopkeeper was so happy that when he took the car back to the building, he couldn't help but lift the curtain and talk with the coachman.
The coachman was a relative of the shopkeeper, and he was also very happy to learn that he had negotiated a business, and as long as he earned more money in the building, they would also be beneficial.
"By the way, before Mrs. Xu Shaoqing of Guanglu Temple, didn't she order a set of gold-inlaid white jade hibiscus heads in our building?" The coachman asked, squinting.
At this time, the rain weakened, and he had the energy to chat with the shopkeeper.
"Yes! Speaking of which, that Mrs. Xie Shaoqing's face is really thick enough, and she wants me to lower the price for her, so she is ashamed to boast to me, saying that she can find the second young grandmother of Du Xiangfu to paint the jewelry in our building for us. ”
The coachman was stunned, "Really?" I heard that the painting skills of this Du Ershao grandmother are far above the painters we invited! ”
"What do you mean? The single painter who painted the jewelry album for us is the grandson of Yan Dahua's apprentice, and he has to call Du Ershao's grandmother a little uncle. ”
"Isn't it? The solo artist is not young! You still have to call Du Ershao's grandmother and uncle? ”
"No, who makes the family young but high? And the talent is also above him. The shopkeeper told the coachman the secret of this.
As he spoke, he returned to the jewelry building, and when he came back, the guys were so excited!
Could it be that they already knew that they had a big deal with the son of the scorching sun in Dongjing?
"Shopkeeper, you're back! Come on! ”
"What's wrong? This is ......" Before he finished speaking, he was dragged by the guys, and before he reached the hall, he heard a sharp voice suddenly raise the volume, almost roaring: "Go and call your shopkeeper out, hurry up!" I want to return the goods, your family is trying to cheat people? What kind of thing is this? ”
"What's going on?" The shopkeeper hid in the shadows and asked the man.
The guy whispered back to the shopkeeper, it turned out that after the shopkeeper left with the person, the lady who screamed in the hall to return the goods angrily took the head that she bought from the building a few days ago to return.
"Who is that lady?"
"Who else could it be? Isn't it the wife of Xu Shaoqing of Guanglu Temple! ”
It's her? No wonder he felt the voice familiar, "Why do you want to return it?" ”
"I heard that her daughter wore her head and went to a relative's house as a guest, and she ended up wearing the same jewelry as the girl from her relative's house, so Miss Xu had a quarrel with the girl from her relative's house on the spot, and then blamed us!" What a disaster!
When they were picking out jewelry, they told them that the style they picked was very popular, and if they added a hundred taels, they could ask the master to modify it slightly, so that they could ensure that when they wore that set of jewelry and went out, it would not happen that they wore the same headdress as others.
It's just that Mrs. Xu Shaoqing didn't respond at the time, and said that if you hit someone with jewelry, you will hit jewelry! Anyway, her daughter is naturally beautiful, so she won't be compared to others because of a face.
As a result, the words were still in my ears, and Mrs. Xu Shaoqing came to return the goods!
"What do you think we are going to do?"
"What to do? Let Steward Su deal with it, remember to tell him, and ask him to bring the consent letter signed by Mrs. Xu with him in case of emergency. ”
Mrs. Xu Shaoqing saw that she had been making trouble for so long, and she still couldn't come up with a result, and she was not panicked.
Damn! Who sent the note? He dared to threaten her, asking her to return all the money she took from Mrs. Ding San within three days, otherwise don't blame them for taking advantage of the future of Fourth Master Xu to vent her anger!
"Madame, what should I do? Are we going to keep messing around? Mrs. Xu Shaoqing's maid asked timidly behind her.
"Of course." She gritted her teeth and let go!
Fortunately, before she came, she had already sent someone to guard the neighborhood to make sure that no one in the store came in to make trouble, but even if she returned her head and got the money back, it was still not enough!
Is!
"Madame, are you really going to retire? How do you explain to the girl when you go back? The confidant reminded her, "The girl has already made an appointment with someone, and she is going to attend the spring banquet of the county lord of Xiangcheng the day after tomorrow, but the girl has already picked out the clothes to match this set of jewelry!" ”
Mrs. Xu Shaoqing glared at her unhappily, "I know, I know." I picked out her outfit for her! How could you not know?
Is it just that the daughter's face is important, or is the husband's future important?
The husband's future is not guaranteed, and the daughter will be even more shameless! "You go back in a while, take her set of clothes and return it."
"Ma'am?" The maids were shocked, what had happened, that the lady insisted on returning all the girl's beloved jewelry and clothes, despite the girl's possible crying? (To be continued.) )
