Chapter 496: Keep Shopping
Lian Ying walked, thinking of what his wife said to Li Yuan at the end, she was a little curious.
"Could it be that during the time my cousin came to the capital, did he see that old woman?"
"No, why do you ask that?"
"Because if you haven't seen it, how can the old woman suddenly say cheer to you? It's weird. But then again, what does the old woman ask you to fuel on? ”
The more Lian Ying thought about it, the more strange she felt, but this old woman was so good that she was willing to give her a silk flower for free.
Li Yuan was stunned for a moment, but he immediately calmed down and smiled.
"I don't know, maybe it's the old woman's blessing to all the people who buy her silk flowers."
Lian Ying muttered, but Juanhua was given to her, even if she wanted to bless her, it should be for her. However, Lian Ying is not a person who will dwell on these little things, and she doesn't want to dwell on it for too long, so she quickly puts this problem behind her.
Obviously, he said that he would take Li Yuan to visit the capital, but even the warbler was novel to see this, and it was interesting to look at that, and finally bought a bunch of inconspicuous gadgets. And she has little strength, she can't lift anything too heavy, and in the end it's all in Li Yuan's hands.
Lian Ying turned her head and suddenly saw that Li Yuan was carrying so many things, and they were all hers, and she was a little embarrassed.
"Originally, I took my cousin out for a walk, but it turned out that I was shopping alone." Saying that, she stuck out her tongue a little embarrassed: "Cousin, don't you have something you like?" Why don't you see what you like, I'll buy it for you, right? ”
Li Yuan has some machismo, no, it should be said that this era is a bit machismo. He wanted to say how to get his cousin to pay, but on second thought, it was a good opportunity.
However, he didn't say what he liked or what he liked, but just picked an inconspicuous knot from what Lian Ying bought before. It was a knot that was the most common on the street, but this one was woven together with colorful threads, which was a bit of a novelty.
"Since my cousin wanted to send it, my cousin picked this wish-your-well knot. I hope everything goes well this year. How is it? ”
That thing wasn't worth a lot of money, even if Li Yuan picked it up, Lian Ying still felt that it was not enough. So she thought that she had also taken out a piece of jade pendant she had bought before. said to Li Yuan very seriously.
"Well, give this to my cousin too."
Li Yuan did not shirk and accepted it. He didn't show it on his face, but he was happy in his heart, and this was something sent by his sweetheart.
The two walked around until noon, until Lian Ying felt a little hungry, and realized that the hour was not early, so they looked at Li Yuan.
"Cousin, we've been shopping for so long, it's already noon, why don't we go and rest first?" Lian Ying looked around, and then said, "I didn't know that there was a good restaurant around here...... I took my cousin to a delicious restaurant, which is very famous in the capital. ”
Li Yuan is naturally good at everything Lian Ying says, but today he can be regarded as a good machine, and he agrees with Lian Ying's decision at all times.
The name of this restaurant is very chic, and it is called a restaurant. There are not many dishes in it, only a few items are produced a day, and the portions are limited, on a first-come, first-served basis.
When Lian Ying took Li Yuan to this restaurant, a table happened to be vacant, and she didn't care that it was in the lobby, Lian Ying hurriedly walked over and sat down, waving her hand excitedly at Li Yuan.
"Cousin, come on, just in time to sit!"
The girl she likes is smiling at herself, and that moment is really irresistible. Li Yuan smiled, followed and sat down opposite Lian Ying.
Xiao Er was very clever and took the menu to ask, as the saying goes, the host is casual, Li Yuan took it, he asked Lian Ying what he likes to order most when he comes here, so as to understand Lian Ying's taste.
"Braised lion's head! My favorite! ”
However, Lian Ying still remembered that he didn't entertain Li Yuan well today, and after ordering a braised lion's head, he was no longer willing to order a second dish, and left it to Li Yuan to deal with.
Li Yuan was forced to have no choice but to order a few dishes by himself, and then let Xiao Er go down.
Lian Ying excitedly counted the things she had sold before, and Li Yuan looked at her gently, not speaking, but also feeling very satisfied.
However, Lian Ying, who lowered his head, didn't notice Li Yuan's eyes at all.
However, it may be because of the lack of dishes, the dishes came up quickly, Li Yuan tasted it first, and the taste was indeed outstanding, with all the color, flavor, and taste. After eating, the mouth is fragrant, and the aftertaste is endless.
Seeing Li Yuan's satisfied smile, even Ying was very happy and proud. After all, this feeling that what you like is also liked by others is really good.
Both of them were very satisfied with their lunch, and went on shopping, but for some reason, Lian Ying was not as excited as in the morning. Maybe it's because of the limited energy, it's almost time to go shopping in the morning.
Lian Ying was strolling around and suddenly passed by the door of the Forbidden Pavilion: "Cousin, do you remember Sister Yining yesterday?" It's the woman who came back with me yesterday. ”
"Of course I do."
Li Yuan had a vague guess in his heart that Lian Ying was later looking for himself to apologize for this kind of change, and it was very likely that this Prince Gong persuaded him.
To be able to reverse Lian Ying's impression of him, he is very grateful to this Prince Gong and Princess Gong.
"This Purple Gold Pavilion was built by Sister Yining, how can Sister Yining be so powerful? How could she have so many novel ideas in her head? ”
You must know that Lian Ying's admiration for Tang Yining is really not just a little bit......
"The jewelry in Sister Yining's Forbidden Pavilion is rarely the same, and it is always innovating. Many ladies and ladies in the capital love to come here to buy jewelry, and I like it too. ”
Lian Ying is a simple "Tang Yining has no brains". It's good that I didn't see it, but since I saw it, I couldn't help but boast in front of Li Yuan. Her adoring look made Li Yuan a little uncomfortable.
"Well, since you like it, why don't you go and see it first? If you have a fancy to it, your cousin will pay you money to buy it. ”
Lian Ying was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then quickly waved her hand and shook her head.
"No, no, no, where can I get you to spend money on me, cousin? If E-Niang knows, she will definitely say that I have no hospitality. And if I really like it, I'll buy it myself, and I'll have more pocket money. ”
Li Yuan smiled, shook his head, and didn't listen to Lian Ying's continuation, and took the lead in entering the Forbidden Pavilion. Even the warbler stomped on the spot, and had no choice but to catch up.
Xiao Ju was idle today, and she wanted to find something to pass the time, so she explained to the guests outside, but she didn't expect to meet Lian Ying and Li Yuan.
"Even the girl."
Xiaoju is the most polite maid, even if Tang Yining emphasized this many times, she didn't change it. Xiao Ju glanced at Li Yuan with some curiosity after saluting, this is a stranger who has never seen before.
"Sister Xiaoju, this is my cousin."
"Girl, the slave maid has told you many times that you should not be called the slave maid sister. You are the master, I am the servant, and it is not reasonable. ”
Xiao Ju has said this many times, and even Ying has heard it many times, but it's useless, otherwise Xiao Ju doesn't need to emphasize it again and again.
"You're here today, but you're picking out jewelry for yourself? Or pick jewelry for Mrs. Lai? ”
"It's me." Li Yuan answered Xiaoju's question. "I want to pick a piece of jewelry for my cousin, to fit her. Do you have a recommendation here? ”
Just now, Li Yuanyou carefully looked at the layout and operation method of the store, and his eyes flashed with surprise. No wonder my sweetheart admires this Prince Gong so much, and now it seems that she does have some ability, and a woman's family can make such a big business, the means and vision are indispensable.
Although it is said that the farmers and businessmen, the merchants are the lowest. But Li Yuan, who has dealt with businessmen, has never looked down on businessmen, especially businessmen who do well. As the saying goes, the line is the best.
Li Yuan admired and admired, but the taste was still a little tasteful, and he asked this question to see if the maid in charge here had some ability, and could he pick out the jewelry that made him tempted at a glance and wanted to pay for it.
And most importantly, what you give to your cousin, how can you be sloppy.
"If you want to buy it for Miss Lian, then you have to go this way, Miss Lian herself likes embroidery, she doesn't like that kind of simple and elegant jewelry, she likes cumbersome jewelry the most, because she thinks it is more skillful."
"Speaking of which, there is indeed a new piece of jewelry recently, and I haven't had time to inform Miss Lian, if Miss Lian sees it, she will definitely fall in love with it at a glance, and then like it."
Xiao Ju suddenly remembered the piece of jewelry she had just made a few days ago, so she asked Li Yuan and Lian Ying to wait in place, and she went to fetch the things.
Because the two were waiting, Xiao Ju moved quickly, and came back after a while, holding a box in her hand, attracting Lian Ying's curious eyes.
"Sister Xiaoju, what is this? Headdress? Or hand ornaments? ”
"It's a bracelet, I can't describe the specifics in words, let's just look at it." As she spoke, Xiao Ju opened the box, and both of them were stunned.
It's a strange bracelet because it's divided into three parts. There are three circles in total, and the innermost circle is a string of Buddhist beads, which is engraved with different words, and the two did not look closely. Followed by the Buddha beads strung with agate beads, one after the other, the color is very bright. Further out is the jadeite polished into beads, strung after string of wear. These three strings are set in a special way, and the colors are stacked together to complement each other.
But the most striking thing is that each bead has something engraved on it.
"Why does the thing engraved on it look familiar? But for a moment I couldn't see what it was. ”
