September 24, frost falls.

The climate of Jinling is still warm and pleasant, without the slightest cold autumn weather, until the occasional autumn wind blows, with some golden leaves falling from the treetops, the slightest coolness will make people realize that it is already autumn.

The vendors who set up stalls on the street only added an old coat to the single coat and continued to shout enthusiastically. And most of the ladies who often come to the jewelry pavilions and clothing shops on West Street to hang out only have a silk scarf or shawl on their bodies, which will not hide their beautiful figures.

A luxurious and exquisite carriage is driving in the bustling and lively area of Jinling West Street, two oily and slippery jujube horses are taking elegant steps, pulling the carriage without hurry, and the coachman is sitting in the front of the car, dressed in gray-green short clothes, with a serious face and a calm temperament.

The golden autumn sun shines on this elegantly shaped, luxuriously equipped carriage, which is wrapped in expensive and exquisite silk on all sides, and has a curtain of light golden tulle on the gold-inlaid and jade-encrusted windows, and the figures in the carriage loom in the carriage, making people wonder who is sitting in this carriage.

The carriage slowly stopped at the door of the Golden Jade Pavilion, the largest jewelry pavilion on West Street, and the shopkeeper of the Golden Jade Pavilion hurriedly greeted him, with a warm smile on his face, and his eyes caught a glimpse of the family emblem on the carriage, and his waist couldn't help but bend down a few times.

As soon as the curtain of the carriage door was lifted, a handmaid with a beautiful face stepped down and stood beside the carriage to prop up the curtain.

In the carriage, another round-faced woman dressed as a maidservant carefully and gently helped a woman in a light white cloud satin skirt to step down from the carriage together.

The maidservant girl at the head stepped forward and said to the shopkeeper of the Golden Jade Pavilion, "Today, my young lady wants to see the jade jewelry that has been released recently, and I ask the shopkeeper to arrange a private room." ”

Seeing that this maid was also speaking and behaving appropriately, the shopkeeper was even more frightened and cautious, and hurriedly said, "This is natural, the little one will take the noble person to the best private room in our pavilion." ”

When she entered the private room and sat down, the woman in the white dress didn't see a smile, she opened her mouth and complained to the round-faced maid on the side, "Big brother is really untrustworthy, he promised to accompany me to West Street for a walk, but it turned out that more than a month has passed, and I haven't even seen him a few times, let alone let him fulfill his promise." ”

The woman in the white dress is Ruan Tingge, she is wearing a light-colored cloud satin skirt today, her hair is combed into the sky, the skirt is soft and elegant, and the hair in her ears falls obliquely on her shoulders, looking like smoke and full of fairy energy.

She hadn't gone out for nearly a month to practice light martial arts before, but she was idle recently, so she thought about going out for a walk.

Hearing Ruan Tingge's complaint, Ling Yu's round eyes turned and said with a smile, "Then the county lord has to buy more jewelry and clothes today, and go back to let the prince pay." ”

Ruan Tingge was amused, "Good idea, then I have to ask my eldest brother to empty his wallet today." ”

While the master and servant were laughing, the shopkeeper came in with a plate of jewelry, followed by two women each holding a wooden box.

"These are the latest styles of jewelry in our Golden Jade Pavilion," the shopkeeper smiled with a smile on his face, opened the jewelry boxes one by one, and gently picked up a hairpin, "This hairpin is a gilded silver hairpin inlaid with jade phoenix butterflies, the shape is complex and exquisite, and the inlaid jade is also the best white jade." ”

Ruan Tingge didn't like this kind of overly gorgeous golden hosta very much, and pointed to the other side, "Bring that hosta and show it to me." ”

Banxia walked over and brought the hosta.

This hosta is crystal clear, the hairpin head is carved into the shape of a bird, and the hairpin body is slender and straight, revealing light.

Ruan Tingge looked very fond of it, so he said, "Wrap this up for me first." ”

She stood up, walked to the jewelry box and looked at it, and found that except for the hosta just now, the rest of the jewelry was too gorgeous and exquisite, and the shape was complicated, which did not quite match her heart.

Ling Yu saw Ruan Tiange's brows furrowed slightly, and he didn't look very satisfied, so he proposed, "Miss, why don't you go to the first and second floors of this jewelry pavilion and see the jewelry they have on display." ”

When the shopkeeper of the Golden Jade Pavilion heard Lingyu say this, he hurriedly said, "This girl's proposal is very good, if the nobles feel that these jewelry are not to their liking, there are all kinds of good-looking hairpins and hairpins in our pavilion, and there are always some that can satisfy the nobles." ”

Ruan Tingge nodded slightly, "Then let's go down, and bother the shopkeeper to lead the way." ”

The Golden Jade Pavilion is luxuriously decorated, and the environment is also full of luxury and exquisiteness, and there are many kinds of jewelry, which is the favorite place for the lady of Jinling.

Fortunately, the Golden Jade Pavilion covers a wide area, and there are one and two floors, so that there is no large flow of people in the pavilion, noisy and noisy phenomenon.

On the second floor, several young ladies were already trying on jewelry, and watching the shopkeeper diligently lead people down from the third floor, several people not far from the stairs couldn't help but cast their eyes over.

I saw a girl in a white dress coming down behind the shopkeeper, with a beautiful face with a hint of immaturity, followed by two maidservants, both of whom felt a little blind, and couldn't help but guess in their hearts which lady this was.

Ruan Tingge rarely came to West Street to hang out before, and most of the jewelry and clothes were rewarded by the palace.

When she came to the Golden Jade Pavilion this time, she still felt a little fresh, so she began to look around, looking at the dazzling jewelry on display with taste.

Banxia next to him was also very fond of jewelry, and whispered to Ruan Tingge excitedly, "The county lord should go shopping, I think these jewelry are very good-looking." ”

"Shh," Ruan Tingge poked Banxia's head lightly, "It's good not to call me the county lord outside, why did you forget?" ”

Banxia smiled with a red face, and hurriedly said, "The slave must pay attention next time." ”

Ruan Tingge walked to a row of hairpins, picked up a lotus-shaped green hairpin, and asked Banxia to help her put it on and take a look.

Banxia was happy again at this time, and praised with a smile, "This hairpin has a unique color, and it looks like a real lotus flower in the county lord's hair." She blink to see another hairpin, her eyes lit up and she said to Ruan Tingge, "The county lord should try that hairpin in the shape of a flowing cloud." ”

Ruan Tingge also liked the hairpin very much, the hairpin head was snow-white with a flowing cloud pattern, and there were several pale golden pearls inlaid next to it, and the hairpin body was two strands of silver, which looked light and elegant but not too plain.

She tried it on her head, and found that it matched the dress she was wearing today, and she couldn't help but smile and praise Banxia, "I didn't expect Banxia's vision to be very good, and the task of buying clothes and jewelry in the future will be handed over to you." ”

Banxia Xiuli's face showed a hint of shyness, she was not as outgoing and likable as Lingyu, she was more gentle and supple, although like Lingyu, she was Ruan Qinge's personal first-class maidservant, but she usually mostly relied on Lingyu's words.

Hearing Ruan Tingge's praise, she was a little embarrassed, and when she turned her head to see Lingyu on the side, she didn't care at all, and finally said happily, "That slave will definitely not live up to the expectations of the county lord and dress the county lord like a fairy." ”
