Chapter 64: Orchid Jade Hairpin
Qianqian . , the fastest update of the latest chapter of the reborn little widow of the farmer's gate!
After taking those words out of Qi Zhen's body, Lian Su seemed to have come out of the water, drenched all over, staining his snow-white underwear into a translucent appearance, and gasping for breath.
The hot breath sprayed on the back of Qi Zhen's neck, and the woman opened her eyes, being tightly locked in her arms by Lian Su, and through the thin layer of underwear, she could also feel the man's rapid heartbeat.
Holding the brocade quilt pressed under her with both hands, Qi Zhen turned her mind a few times, knowing that now is not the time to tear her face with Lian Su, even if this man has raised an outer room outside, she has to see it with her own eyes before she can die, otherwise she will be convicted of people just by virtue of the fragrance of osmanthus flowers, which is something wrong.
Qi Zhen turned her back to Lian Su, the man knew that he had annoyed her just now, and he couldn't help feeling a little guilty in his heart, and his rough palm gently wiped the tears on the woman's face, gently kissed the white jade-like ear, and said in a dumb voice: "It's all my fault, Zhen Zhen, don't be angry." ”
Hearing this, Qi Zhen seemed to have a lump of cotton in her throat, and wanted to open her mouth to question Lian Su, but she couldn't say it, after all, as a wife, it was what she should do to take a concubine for her husband, if she spoke first, what if Lian Su took the opportunity to bring back the fox spirit who was raised outside? She is not pregnant with a child yet, and there must be no other woman in the house, otherwise once she gives birth to a concubine, where will Lian Su put her?
"Does it still hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt too much, let's go to sleep first." Qi Hao replied softly, she shrank inside, wanting to stay away from this man, but she didn't follow suit, she had to hug the delicate little woman, and finally Qi Zhen had no choice but to let this person go.
On the second day, Lian Su went to the Zhenfu Division to be on duty early in the morning, and Qi Zhen was not idle, and went out with Honglan.
There are a lot of new tricks in the jewelry in Beijing recently, although Qi Zhen's jewelry is not much, but everything is boutique, she goes to the most shop on weekdays is Magnolia Fang, and now she has become a regular customer of Binglan Fang, although it will not be much cheaper when buying jewelry, but it is often a fraction, and Qi Zhen of the province will prepare some scattered silver, but it is also troublesome.
When I arrived at Binglan Fang, a little guy soon came up, and when he saw the generous old customer, the little guy smiled all over his face and led Qi Zhen to the direction of the counter.
When women in the capital go to the street, they will always cover their faces with a layer of light veil, and the snow-white light veil hangs behind their ears, and the whole face cannot be revealed by the wind, but they can show a small jaw and snow-white skin.
Walking to the edge of the counter, the shopkeeper quickly recognized Qi Zhen, took out a palm-sized mahogany box, and gently opened the lid of the box, revealing the ice-blue orchid jade hairpin inside, blue jade is rare, plus the color of this orchid jade hairpin is excellent, it is as smooth and transparent as water waves in the sun, and it is a rare treasure at a glance.
Qi Zhen took the orchid jade hairpin into his hand, and his fingertips lightly touched the orchid petals at the top, the master of jade carving was experienced, and the orchid was carved to the fullest, and even the yellow pattern mixed in the blue jade was carved into the shape of a stamen.
Inserting the jade hairpin into a thick black hair, Qi Hao turned her head to look at Hong Lan, raised her chin slightly, the corners of her mouth curved slightly, and asked:
"Is it pretty?"
Honglan nodded vigorously, she had long known that her wife was good-looking, not only a snow-white skin and flesh were born well, but even her facial features couldn't find the slightest mistake, her apricot eyes were round and bright, her eyes were like paint, the tip of her nose was small and straight, her lips were full and ruddy, the corners of her mouth were upturned, she looked very soft and glutinous when she didn't smile, and when she smiled, her whole heart melted. Because of neglect of maintenance, the skin is yellow and rough, how can it be compared to Mrs. Shang's water?
Even though the lady is wearing a thin veil now, the veil can cover the palm-sized face, but it can't cover the woman's figure.
"It's good-looking, our lady looks good in anything."
Seeing that Honglan's little face was slightly red, it didn't look like she was lying at all, Qi Zhen's mood that had been dull all day improved a little, and the willow eyebrows that had been carefully outlined with Luo Zidai were slightly raised, and her delicate fingertips poked Honglan's little face, and said:
"You maid is really sweet-mouthed, this little mouth is like smeared with honey."
"Madame is fairy, the maid is not lying." The shopkeeper is a businessman, his stomach is high and straight, like Maitreya Buddha, doing business pays attention to harmony and wealth, this mouth is naturally constantly coming out of the good words, Qi Zhen didn't take it seriously, she knew that her appearance was good, but she couldn't call it the national color and fragrance, not to mention anything else, I don't know how many beauties there are in the palace, and her facial features are far better than her.
"How much does this jade hairpin cost?"
As soon as the shopkeeper was about to speak, a small guy hurriedly walked over behind Binglan Fang, and he didn't know what to say in the shopkeeper's ear, Qi Zhen was not a person who practiced martial arts, so he naturally couldn't hear clearly.
After the little servant left, the shopkeeper smiled and said: "Madame is a regular customer of our family, and this orchid jade hairpin only charges you two hundred taels." ”
Hearing this, Qi Hao frowned without a trace, she had bought many things in Binglan Fang in the past, and each piece of jewelry was not less than three hundred taels, this orchid jade hairpin was obviously not ordinary, how could it cost two hundred taels?
As if seeing Qi Zhen's doubts, the shopkeeper gently patted his swollen belly, and said with a smile: "Madame doesn't know, although my orchid jade hairpin is good, but it is a whole piece of blue jade leftovers, fortunately, the carving master has good craftsmanship, so that the blue jade in this corner can be carved into this shape, the main remaining materials are used to make other objects, this orchid jade hairpin is just an addition, Madame is an old guest, I naturally can't look at the fooling Madame......"
Even if the orchid jade hairpin is only carved from scraps, as long as the shopkeeper doesn't say it, others will never see the doorway, and they just think that this orchid jade hairpin is carefully carved by Binglanfang, how can they think so much? Qi Zhen is also a businessman, and she can't figure out what this shopkeeper does today, but she likes this orchid jade hairpin very much, and now she is not buying it or not.
On the side, Honglan saw the master's thoughts, this maid was already thoughtful, looked at the shopkeeper a few times, leaned on Qi Zhen's ear and said softly: "Master, anyway, you like this orchid jade hairpin, it's better to buy it, two hundred taels of silver is not cheap, and this jade hairpin can't go wrong......
Qi Zhen nodded, after all, the weather is very hot these days, the orchid jade hairpin is made of blue jade, it does not look stuffy when worn on the head, but gives people a refreshing feeling, Xu is the shopkeeper's words are true, this orchid jade hairpin is really made of jade at the corner, it will be sold so cheaply, anyway, businessmen will never do loss-making transactions, Binglanfang is much stronger than Yuyanfang, why worry about them?
Let Honglan take out two hundred taels of silver tickets, Qi Zhen directly wore this orchid jade hairpin out of the door, and when the person walked away, the little girl looked at the shopkeeper, his eyes widened, and his face was obviously in disbelief, and asked: "Shopkeeper, didn't you say that the orchid jade hairpin is less than eight hundred taels and will not be sold?" Why did you sell it for two hundred taels today, it's not a free gift......"
The shopkeeper slapped the little guy's head fiercely, and sold the orchid jade hairpin at a low price of two hundred taels, and his heart was like dripping blood, but this was ordered by the young master of the owner, what could he do? Still not according to the owner's wishes? The shopkeeper has lived for so many years, and he can see things clearly, even if Qi Zhen used to wear a veil when she came to Binglanfang, she looked like a beauty at first glance, and it was normal for the young master of the owner to be tempted.
But in the past few months, people have obviously combed the woman's hair bun, and the young master of the owner wants Xiao to think of a married woman, if it spreads, where will the face of Chong'an Bo Mansion go? Although the Bofu is different from the Hou Mansion, the military exploits in the hands of the young master are real, in the past, the master in the Bofu was worried about the young master's lack of proximity to women, but now the young master has someone he wants to get close to, and the shopkeeper is even more worried, sighing again and again, as if others owe him how much silver.
After Qi Zhen bought the jade hairpin, she didn't go back to the house directly, but took Honglan to a teahouse opposite Fusi in Beizhen, there are not many female dependents in the teahouse, but there can be a few, like Qi Zhen, a well-dressed female dependent, was directly introduced to the private room on the second floor by the shopkeeper.
threw a piece of broken silver to Xiao Er, Qi Zhen said, "Choose a room by the window on the street for me." ”
Xiao Er accepted the reward, smiled toothlessly, and quickly found a private room according to Qi Zhen's request, sitting at the wooden table made of yellow rosewood, Qi Zhen held her chin with her small hand, while eating the bean curd with honey and dried fruits, her bright eyes stared closely at the door of Beizhen Fusi, and no one was spared.
Looking at the appearance of the master, Hong Lan asked tentatively, "Master, are you waiting for the adults to come out?" ”
Qi Hao didn't hide it, the reason why she brought Honglan out instead of Cui Lian today was because she took a fancy to this girl's intelligence and interest, she didn't turn her head, she only said softly: "You also help me keep an eye today, once the adults come out of the gate of Beizhen Fusi, let's go down immediately, follow in a carriage, you go down first and order a carriage, don't be in a hurry later......"
There are a lot of carriages parked at the door of the teahouse, and many guests who have finished drinking tea will take the carriage back to their homes, Qi Zhen specially did not take the carriage of the Lian family to go out, because the carriages of each prefecture have their own logos, in case of being noticed by Lian Su, this man may not show his feet, if that is the case, Qi Zhen will not come out in vain today?
