Chapter 58: Tokens
Mo Yanfei took out a silver wide ring from his coat pocket and said to Shopkeeper Jia: "I wear this ring a little big, please change it for me to be smaller." ”
Shopkeeper Jia took the ring and looked at it and said, "This ring was brought back by the fourth master from the south, right?" ”
"You see something, let's talk about it."
Shopkeeper Jia took a magnifying glass and said while looking at it: "This ring should be from the other side of Yunnan, something from a certain village, and the pattern on it is different from the one in our north." Such things are generally made in pairs, one for each woman, as a token of love between lovers. ”
Mo Yanfei took the ring from Shopkeeper Jia's hand and looked at it carefully, put it on his ring finger, raised his hand to admire it, and then said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Jia, I don't think I need to change this ring, you go and pick a similar ring for me, I want to wear it on my index finger." ”
Shopkeeper Jia looked at the ring on Mo Yanfei's nameless finger, which was obviously much larger, and suddenly realized that this was the one worn by the man.
Shopkeeper Jia looked at Mo Yanfei and said with a smile: "As soon as you said that you want to wear it on your index finger, I remembered that you are not a ring, you should be used by southern women when they knit things, similar to the thimble we use here for needlework." ”
Mo Yanfei asked with a smile, "Really?" ”
"I think so. I'm going to find you a wide ring, I don't have many wide rings here, if you don't like it, you name it, I'll give you one overnight. Shopkeeper Jia said, going to the counter to pick out the ring.
Shopkeeper Jia quickly walked back with a tray of black velvet, and he put the tray on the coffee table: "Miss Mo, look at it, you like that one." ”
Mo Yanfei saw that they were all gold rings, so he said, "Is there any silver?" I'm afraid I'll lose it after I wear it for two days, and I'm so distressed if I lose the gold. ”
Shopkeeper Jia said in embarrassment: "Miss Mo, your identity wears a silver ring, isn't it?" ”
"Hey, I only get that much a month, it's good to wear a silver one, if you have a copper one, I'd prefer to buy a copper one to wear."
Shopkeeper Jia said with a smile: "Miss Mo, you tease me again, even if you want to wear those two or two gold bracelets, our fourth master can afford it." ”
"Shopkeeper Jia, you are teasing me, Zhang Siye and I are just brothers and sisters, not brothers and sisters. For no reason, how could he give me such a valuable thing. Besides, even if he is generous, I can't accept it. After receiving it, I will give him something in return. ”
Shopkeeper Jia heard Mo Yanfei say this, and hurriedly said: "Miss Mo really understands people, since you don't like these rings, then you say something, and I'll make a new one for you." ”
Mo Yanfei thought for a while and said, "Then you can take a piece of silver and make a similar one for me." The pattern doesn't have to be too complicated, it's just a little simple. ”
Shopkeeper Jia picked up a ring on the velvet tray and asked, "What do you think of this wavy pattern?" ”
"Okay, I'm going to do that, too." Mo Yanfei said, shaking the ring on his ring finger.
"Okay, make a ring."
Mo Yanfei instructed: "Measure the size of my index finger, don't make it small." ”
Shopkeeper Jia took out a ring, asked Mo Yanfei to wear it on his index finger to measure the size, and after making a mark, he said, "After it is done, I will ask the apprentice to send it to the house for you." ”
Mo Yanfei nodded: "Let's do two, I'm afraid I'll lose it." ”
