The name was written on the invitation, all of this was done by Steward Xiao, who has been here, and he knows the local situation very well.

Some small families have a little regret because they have not received the invitation, but they also understand that they can't be the main bargain with Changping County when they are reborn. They didn't have a lot of financial resources in the first place, and none of the Miss Childe who went this time were piled up with gold and silver. If the strength is not good, it is better not to go, otherwise the shabby body will make people laugh.

If you don't want to be laughed at, it's really a one-time participation and bankruptcy. For the sake of a banquet, the family is in the middle of the road, and the small and medium-sized households become poor households all of a sudden, which is really more than worth the loss.

Sure enough, every family is a smart person, even if there is a mother who is not at ease, she sent it to the door, and said a few words before getting off the car, and then let it go.

Because a few days ago, each province also sent a note of caution. Therefore, every lady will bring a maid, and each boy will also bring a scholar or a maid.

The young lady and the son who were invited were placed in two places, and they were seated after the banquet began. Along the way, the young lady was able to pretend to be calm, but the maid and the little maid couldn't help but look at it. When they arrived at the waiting place, the little masters couldn't wait.

In the living room, all the female dependents are placed with rare treasures, and the son has several pairs of calligraphy and paintings.

Calligraphy and painting are all masterpieces, rare to see, even if you don't like this kind of thing, you have to stand in front of it and appreciate it. And the female dependents couldn't help but look around for a long time.

"What a big red coral!" Red coral, more than one person tall, has never been seen in this small county.

"What's so rare about this?" The third lady of Qian Yuanwai's family shook her fan with a look of disdain: "There is a taller and bigger tree in my storehouse. ”

Qian Yuan is a big local family, and the ancestors of the family are too often, but the younger generations are all general, relying on the assets of the ancestors and understanding the Xiongnu dialect, and they welcome each other left and right.

The second lady of the Jia family chuckled: "The county lord is to take it out and put it as an ornament, otherwise no matter how big it is, it will be placed in the warehouse, who knows!" ”

Miss Qian San rolled her eyes and ignored it.

The Jia family is the home of merchants, and they resell furs here. Every winter, calculating that the Huns might have to be idle and have nothing to do, they called over, and retreated to the rear with all their families. After the beginning of spring, move back and continue to collect fur.

Although they are all local wealthy families, for the ancestors who are officials, they naturally look down on the families who do business.

Miss Wang, who is also from a businessman, looked at it carefully, and said with a smile: "Miss Jia Er, your pendant today is not ordinary." ”

"Yes!" Miss Jia Er picked up the jade disc hanging from her fan and proudly displayed it: "This is my mother's dowry, it is said that my mother's ancestors were also officials, and they passed down a few pieces of jade. ”

"This jade color is round, which is quite good." The fourth lady, the concubine of the county magistrate of Zhou, hurriedly said: "My father also has a piece on his waist, and the texture is not as good as this one, it seems that Mrs. Jia's ancestor is also a big official." ”

Although the use of jade in this dynasty was not as strict as when the country was founded, it was used in different grades, and the material of jade was also used in different grades. If officials use good white jade, it may be regarded as trespassing, or even suspected of rebellion.

When Miss Jia Er heard this, she was happy: "It turned out to be Miss Thursday, who is an official eunuch in the end, and she has the vision to speak." ”

"Where is it, where is my vision comparable to that of your sisters, and I am also fortunate to have the opportunity to come and see the world by the post of the county lord of Changping." Miss Thursday smiled, this plain and delicate face was not annoying.

Isn't it just a broken jade and a coral tree...... Miss Qian San pursed her lips, anyway, she didn't speculate for more than half a sentence, so let these hypocritical flattery flatter each other. The concubine is really in love with the merchant lady.

Miss Qian San turned around and was about to leave. Suddenly, the maid next to her suddenly exclaimed, "Oops", and her body fell towards the coral tree.

A coral tree that is more than one person tall, even if the base is quite stable, the maid tried to avoid it as much as possible, but she still ran into it. She held the large pot containing the coral tree in one hand, and subconsciously grasped a branch of the coral tree with the other......

Everyone didn't dare to look at it, but they heard a "click", and one of the branches of the coral tree was broken alive.

The seven young ladies and six maids who were already present all stared at each other. Coral tree, how tall is a person, and a branch was broken like this?!

"Little Red!" Miss Qian San was ashamed, annoyed, and scared. This would not be an object of reward from the Han king, and if it was damaged, it would be a great sin.

This maid, who was in trouble and was named Xiaohong, was also stunned when she looked at the elbow long branch in her hand. was woken up as soon as he was woken up, and immediately knelt down, and tears fell: "The slave really didn't mean it, I feel like someone tripped me just now!" Please make the decision for the slaves. ”

"How is this done?" Miss Qian San had to be furious: "This is the thing of the county lord of Changping, if it is an object rewarded by the King of Han, it is not enough to compensate for killing you!" ”

I heard Miss Jia Er laughing next to her, Miss Jia Er covered her mouth with a fan, and teased with a smile: "Don't worry, isn't there a coral tree bigger than this in the Qian family's treasury, although it is used to compensate the county lord." Presumably, the county lord will not blame! ”

Miss Qian San really wanted to tear the mouth of this merchant girl, and she couldn't wait to kill Xiaohong directly.

Someone in the living room has already gone to ask the county lord, a huge coral tree has been damaged, you must know that a branch is broken, this price is too much.

Hienin is freshening up and dressing, today she is the Lord, and she must make it beautiful.

The four maids were waiting with a set of clothes each, and Jing'er, who was helping her comb her hair, asked, "County Lord, which one do you plan to wear?" ”

Xining looked sideways: "It's the set of water lake green silk with a lotus root pink belt." ”

Jing'er continued to comb her hair: "Although this color is good, it is also worthy of the title of the lotus root feast, but it is a bit plain." Today, most of those young ladies and sons are wearing Shu brocade. ”

I know, I bought them all from her store.

Xining looked at herself in the bronze mirror, the corners of her mouth curled, and smiled lightly: "Just because they are well dressed, then I have to wear a gold dress and a silver skirt to stand out." Just dress plainly, let them fight for this brilliance, I don't care. "All she cares about is making money, as long as she gets it.

At this time, someone came to report that the coral tree in the women's hall had broken a branch by a fallen maid.

She took the bamboo piece handed over and looked at it, and suddenly smiled even more: "I know that these young ladies are restless, these are handed over to Steward Xiao, and tell him that this coral tree belongs to the Qinling Palace, ask Steward Lin, how much is the price when you buy it, estimate the right price, whoever breaks it will buy it." If you refuse, just go to the county government to complain. ”

The bamboo slice was handed out, and the person who came went to talk back.
