Chapter 38 Sisters compete with each other and fight for a long time
The prosperity of Zhongzhou is far from being comparable to Donglin Nanling, which can be seen from this small capital.
The small city wall has long lost its original function, and the moss also shows the traces of time and human feats on the wall. Before entering the city, many voices were heard. Entering the city, all kinds of noisy shouting are endless. There is only one road that can accommodate two vehicles in parallel, and the busy figures in the alleys on the side of the street are also setting off the every inch of land here. Those colorful costumes are more like distinct symbols, all of which are written with the word prosperity.
Mu Yiya let the carriage stay in a shop, the appearance of the shop is not special, ordinary bluestone steps, red wooden doors, only a red lacquered gold-edged wooden plaque at the upper end of the gatehouse - Yongguiren. The three big characters are painted with gold paint, but the whole glyph is not so majestic, but looks extremely flattering. Like a charming girl who changes clothes and bathes, waiting for your visit and pampering. There is only one line of small words in the lower left corner of the wooden plaque, but it is a little indescribable. The small print ---- Jinyi Lou Feicheng Branch is a footnote, which has raised the status of this girl a lot, and no man is allowed to abuse and violate it. Men can't enter, and naturally women especially like it. So Yonggui people are naturally the holy land of women.
Mu Yiya glanced at Xu Yongzheng, who was standing still at the door, carefully studying the shop, couldn't help but smile, and continued to walk towards the lobby.
Jin Yilou, could it be the rotten building in that guy's mouth? How are you this guy······ What about narcissism? Xu Yongzheng also took his hand behind and wanted to find out.
Mu Yiya had already stopped next to a container, pointing her fingers in the air, like a businessman who had the ability to point gold with fossils, and her face couldn't stop the excitement and joy.
The shopkeeper on the side is a middle-aged woman dressed in green, her dress can be regarded as graceful, but unfortunately she is doing the work of serving people, so it is naturally not luxurious. And what she serves is a noble person like Mu Yiya.
Xu Yongzheng fixed his eyes on what Mu Yiya pointed out, and those jewels and jade jewelry were neatly displayed on the container, and one container had several small grids, and there were several horizontal and bunched in the middle of the grid, and some were dyed in yellow and white.
"Miss Mu, these jewels are the new styles this year, among which this pair of earrings is just right for you, you have always been capable and energetic, this jade pendant is very suitable for you regardless of size or color. This price is not too expensive, fifty taels of silver. ”
"Let's look at this jewelry, she took it from Baitian jade seed ······"
Xu Yongzheng gradually understood that the horizontal and vertical originally represented numbers, and the yellow and white colors represented gold and silver. Looking at this store and this display, it is all the precious decorations on the woman's hand. Gold, silver, and jewelry. Yongguiren, Jinyi Building, this is clearly where the women's shopping makeup is.
"If you choose these two of our latest styles, we will also give you a discount, 80% of the list price. ”
Mu Yiya is naturally not the first time to come to Yongguiren, she may be more familiar with the tricks here than some of the clerks here.
"Aunt Jane, with my money, I'm afraid I won't be able to buy a few pieces of this style in a month. Mu Yiya cleaned the jade pendant on her ears with her hands, and the smile in the bronze mirror could not be picked out.
"As the Miss Mu family, you have been in charge of the affairs of the Mu family in recent years, and these jewels will not be stingy even if they are a family. The woman known as Aunt Jian took the earrings with both hands and did not forget to suggest.
Mu Yiya finally ordered only the three items on the table, and said with satisfaction: "I want all of these, Aunt Jane, you can wrap them up for me." Aunt Jian wrapped it up carefully, and her movements were unhurried. When it was about to be sealed, she said in surprise: "Oh, look at me, I just remembered that the store bought a set of treasured realm ear and neck pendants at the end of last year, and I have been keeping it for you, Xiaocui, you go to the back room and take it out, and show it to Miss Mu!"
After a while, a woman handed over a box made of nanmu and wrapped in brocade. The box is opened, there is not too much jewelry, but the jade is inlaid with gold, the jade light is inline and not outward, the gold and silver are decorated, and the green, yellow and white are alternate, adding one or two points of luxury.
"Aunt Jane, you hid it last time I came here, but this time I took it out to this person, could it be that I can't afford to pay this money? Indeed, I am not of much help to my family, but even if my Hua family can't afford it, can't the Jiang family afford it? Could it be that my husband doesn't love me like this?" A woman's voice came, and when she finished speaking, she just walked in front of Mu Yiya. She lifted the bottom of the box slightly.
"Let me see, but one, two. It turned out to be only twenty taels of gold, and I thought it was worth ten million taels of gold? In that case, I bought it for twenty-five taels of gold. The woman didn't drag at all, and she spoke quite directly and neatly.
Mu Yiya stretched out her hand to stop it, and did not forget to sneer coldly: "Since ancient times, doing business has been on a first-come, first-served basis. Your Miss Hua family won't understand. Your family won't fail to teach you this rule, right? Or do you fly on the branches, and once you fall into the Jiang family, you will become arrogant out of control? If this is the case, my Mu family can't afford to provoke the Jiang family, so you just have to buy it. ”
"Oh, it's not uncommon for this to fly on a branch and become a phoenix, but in the final analysis, no matter how proud it is, it was a bird from the beginning. The branches of Donglin are really big. ”
Miss Hua Jia's expression was on the side when she said this, and she was about to shoot back. She has never been afraid of such women's verbal swords. Unexpectedly, the man behind him took the lead and said: "What branch of Donglin can be bigger than my Jiang family, but Yan Mei and I are the old man of the moon, a match made in heaven." Miss Mu, don't be envious. ”
"It turned out to be the son of the Jiang family, and the little sister was clumsy. ”
"Hmph, you're not just blind, almost, no, blind. The daughter of the Hua family on the side answered.
"Miss Hua is sharp, and the husbands of the Jiang family can only retreat to the back, no wonder I am so clumsy. I am afraid that such a situation is rare in a century. I'm afraid that in a few years, the Hua family is really, unlimited. It is said that a beautiful woman is worthy of a talented son, and my sister and Jiang Gongzi are really a match made in heaven. Mu Yiya deliberately dragged the heaven-made design for a long time, and the meaning was even more obvious.
"Miss Mu, don't be envious," the words of the Jiang family's son seemed to judge the outcome of the confrontation between the two women. "Sister Yan, why don't you compete fairly with Miss Mu?"
It seems that no one has noticed the several wanderings on the chest of Miss Yu Mu, the son of the Jiang family, and his words are also a little deep.
It turned out to be a prodigal boy! Xu Yongzheng thought in his heart.
Mu Yiya also acted as if nothing happened, and directly offered the price: "Twenty-six taels of gold." ”
"I'll give thirty taels of gold. ”
"Thirty-one taels. Mu Yiya looked directly at Hua Siyan's eyes, her eyes full of smiles.
"Thirty-five taels. Hua Siyan was a little breathless and became more and more annoyed.
Hua Siyan became more angry, and Mu Yiya smiled more presumptuously. After going back and forth like this, Hua Siyan finally couldn't bear it anymore and broke out.
"Sixty taels, you are enough, each time it is a tael of gold, if you don't want to buy it, don't bid. Since you can't increase the price, why bother. ”
"A tael of gold is a lot, enough for many people to be jealous. Our Mu family is naturally not as good as my sister's family, so we have to cherish these two golds. Besides, one or two more gold is a higher price. I'd love to see Aunt Jane earn more money. Sixty-one taels. Mu Yiya said unhurriedly.
"You, you're still so unreasonable, no wonder no one dares to ask for it. ”
Mu Yiya's face turned cold, and she said angrily: "Hua Siyan, you say it again." ”
Hua Siyan lit the powder keg, immediately sensed that the situation was wrong, hid himself behind her husband, her mind shrank, and she felt that she had lost momentum, she couldn't help but puff up her chest, and said stiffly: "You let me just say it, aren't I too faceless, when did I eat your family's rice and wear your family's clothes, why should I listen to you?"
"Hmph, it's still the same coward. Mu Yiya pursed her lips.
Seeing that the two were at an impasse, they couldn't get off the stage.
Aunt Jian, a businessman who knows how to judge the situation very well, immediately said with a smile: "Thanks to the love of the two young ladies, this set of things is not worth so many silver taels." I can't smash the sign of my shop. Otherwise, I will sell this year's jewelry to one of you for twenty taels of gold, and as for the other, as compensation for today's incident, you can choose a sword of crimson jewelry, and she can also book the realm jewelry for the coming year. I don't know if this is appropriate? What do you say, Young Master Jiang. ”
The young master of the Jiang family nodded.
"Since the two young ladies are silent, then I will take the two young ladies as a default. Then there are two wooden plaques A and B, A represents the ownership of today's realm, and B represents the treasure of the coming year and a piece of jewelry as compensation. ”
After a while, the two quickly had a result.
"yes, I got the armor, and this year's realm series is mine. ”
When Hua Siyan was expressing her joy, Mu Yiya said in a timely manner: "I didn't like this series of things very much, I didn't expect to get a piece of crimson jewelry as compensation, Aunt Jane, thank you so much, you have to keep the realm series for me next year, don't let others snatch it again." Mu Yiya is in a better mood.
Everyone present seemed to be able to see that the smile on her face was stronger than the spring breeze.
"Hmph, let's go. When Hua Siyan heard these words, he turned from joy to sadness, and threw away the wooden card that was still very happy.
As for the jewelry, I am not afraid that the Hua family and the Jiang family will not admit it, and the reputation of Jinyilou's business is still guaranteed.
"Miss Mu, Miss Shao and Miss Hua are angry, after all, they are out of Donglin together, and they can see it when they look up and down. The woman named Aunt Jian said softly. She didn't feel much pain about today's loss, just a piece of jewelry. Doing business with the children of the family, as long as the water flows for a long time, then the oil and water that has been accumulated over the years is enough, enough to feed many people.
"Aunt Jane, I only know. That compensation is not needed. It also saves Aunt Jane from feeling uncomfortable. ”
"You just look down on your Aunt Jane, our Jinyilou has always made a promise, and if you don't change your money, you can't smash your own signboard. ”
Mu Yiya had to nod in agreement. "Okay, I'll pick it up next time. ”
After Mu Yiya walked out of the shop, her hands were behind her back, and her expression was a little cold.
Glancing lightly behind him, he saw that the man was still behind him, and couldn't help but snort coldly, but he was the only one who heard it.
Xu Yongzheng's ears are naturally very sharp, and after hearing it, he can also look at his nose and nose and his heart, and he is silent. Who dares to touch this powder keg at this time, isn't it obvious that the suspicion is long? Today is a lose-lose situation, Mu Yiya shouldn't be so irritable. Xu Yongzheng could only muttered in his heart.
In fact, Mu Yiya has never been so easy to get angry. It's just that the sentence "no one wants" is like grabbing the cat's tail, and it goes straight to the heart. And the person who could have wanted it chose to refuse this marriage.
She was dissatisfied with her current daughter's mentality, but she didn't dare to verify it in person. I'm afraid that if I muster up a lot of courage, I won't get the answer I want.
He should know, right? When will he know? This wood.
