Chapter 131: One Change
Mrs. Fang's birthday has arrived. According to the rules, it is generally not a big deal if it is not a whole life.
However, now that the old marquis is not in the house, Xia Zhongyuan ordered the Wei family to do a good job in order to make the old lady Fang happy.
Jianping Houfu is also a well-known family in the capital, since it is to do a good job, please move, usually have contacts, all have a post.
Wei was so busy that his feet didn't touch the ground, and he found a troupe to make fun, and he asked people to replace the original flowers in the garden. Xia Qingtong was also called to help.
"You're getting older, and although you're impatient, you have to learn these chores."
"Got it."
"Old lady's birthday, what gift did you prepare?"
Xia Qingtong: "I haven't thought about it yet." ”
"How can you not think about it?" Wei looked at his daughter and knew that she had never been careful. I don't like the old lady, how can I prepare a gift for her?
"Your fifth sister heard that she has been nesting in the room for more than half a month, and she plans to embroider a picture of longevity for the old lady."
"What does it have to do with me when she embroiders hers?" Xia Qingtong looked inexplicable: "I'm not a good girl." If I really embroider something for the old lady, I'm afraid she will dislike it, right? ”
Webster: ......
How did she forget? Her daughter is not good at being a female celebrity.
"However, since you have ordered it, mother, then I will go to the street tomorrow to pick a gift."
"You."
Wei nodded Xia Qingtong's forehead, but he was not really angry.
She doesn't like the old lady either, and the gifts she gives are just passable on face. It's really hearted, that's not my daughter's personality anymore.
Xia Qingtong went out with Xia Ruixuan the next day and picked out a gift for Mrs. Fang.
For the grandmother of the original owner, Xia Qingtong couldn't like it even if he received all the memories.
When she was a child, Old Madam Fang couldn't see Xia Zhongyuan being good to Wei. Obviously, Wei is Xia Zhongyuan's wife. But it's worse than a concubine.
After the Wei family couldn't compete for favor, it took a lot of effort to get the power of the family.
But even so, some important positions are still arranged by Old Madam Fang's people. Her person is actually Aunt Yu's person.
Over the years, the Wei family has worked really hard.
The original owner has watched his mother as the housewife of a house since he was a child, but he has to fight for everything and endure everywhere, so he naturally doesn't like Aunt Yu and Mrs. Fang.
"Sister, where do you want to pick a gift for the old lady?"
"I don't know." Xia Qingtong was a little indifferent. Every year on the original owner's birthday, the old lady just sends some pearl jewelry to send away.
The old lady doesn't care about the original owner, why should she care about the old lady's birthday?
"This birthday banquet is very big, and all the people who come are people with heads and faces in the capital. We want to give gifts, and we have to get by on face. Why don't you go to the Treasure Cabinet? ”
The carriage drove across Bluestone Street and finally stopped in front of a two-story building.
Jumbo Pavilion is the largest jewelry shop in Beijing. Counting the attic, it should be three floors.
In addition to jewelry, there are also antiques and jade, famous paintings and calligraphy.
All the things in the Treasure Pavilion are imprinted, and in addition to guaranteeing authenticity, their jewelry can also guarantee that it is the only one, and nothing else. This has led to many upper-class families also like to visit the Treasure Pavilion.
The only downside is that the things in the Treasure Pavilion are very expensive.
Xia Qingtong got out of the carriage, and the original owner had come here twice before to buy jewelry. Because it's not cheap, she doesn't actually come often.
This is the first time since the crossing.
