Chapter 293: A chance encounter, a ruby head similar to the fifth princess
After Mo Xuetong saw the old lady, she stayed in the Fuguo Mansion to accompany the old lady for lunch, the old lady's body was fine, but she occasionally felt the wind and cold, and people who were a little older would always be like this, seeing Mo Xuetong come to see her, as soon as she was in a good mood, she was a little better, and she added half a bowl of rice at noon. []
When Mo Xuetong came out, she still took her hand and took care that she must come over when she was free, the two mansions are now closer because of Xu Yan's marriage, and now Xu Yan is in charge of the house, and it is not difficult for Mo Xuetong to go out.
Mo Xuetong smiled and agreed, and repeatedly promised the old lady to come to see her in two days, and the old lady reluctantly let Mo Xuetong go out.
The carriage went out, Mo Xuetong was not in a hurry to go home, but went to a famous jewelry store on Yushui Street, where the new style is the most famous in the entire capital, many beautiful jewelry are made in that shop, Mo Xuetong hand-painted a colorful phoenix pattern last time, so that the people here made a hairpin for her, and she should be able to pick up the goods today.
In a few days, it is the birthday of the fifth princess, I heard that there is going to be a big one, she is the lord of Anping County naturally also took the post, the eldest princess has long instructed her to just send a reasonable gift to give it, I heard that since the sunset water, the fifth princess has been sick, this is the first day worth celebrating after the illness, so it is different from the past, specially placed in the feast.
Mo Xuetong knew that this was just an official's words, the real reason was because the fifth princess and Bai Yichen hugged each other in rags that day, which caused everyone to talk about it, and the royal daughter was a role model for the lady, and Emperor Zongwen ordered the fifth princess to marry into Yan Kingdom.
The fifth princess disagreed and made a big fuss, so she was grounded!
Now that she is feasting for her, does that mean that the fifth princess has already figured it out?
Thinking of the cruel and vicious fifth princess, Mo Xuetong really didn't dare to be respectful, just thinking about leaving early after giving gifts.
The guy in the store saw Mo Xuetong, and hurriedly took him into the innermost room, where all the precious jewelry was placed, which were generally customized, expensive, and the styles were unique, mostly required by themselves, which is one of the reasons why this store has been leading the jewelry industry.
"This young lady, you see that this is your customized phoenix hairpin, see if there is anything wrong, if there is nothing wrong, the small one will be wrapped for you." The guy cleverly took the list handed by Mo Lan, looked at the hairpin that took out a nine-winged hairpin from the counter, the golden phoenix with ruby eyes, and the jadeite carved feathers, it was really beautiful.
"Miss, you see, this gem is cut from a large ruby, naturally formed, we have two in the whole store, and the other one is also made into other smaller hairpins, which can not be compared with your completely polished one, whether it is color or brightness, it is the most outstanding." In order to increase the credibility of his words, the man took out another set of ruby heads from under the counter.
There is a pair of earrings inside, a pair of ruby hairpins, and a ruby chain, except for a small ruby phoenix hanging from the hairpin, which is indeed incomparable to the one in Mo Xuetong's hand.
"You see, although this is also our new style, but with Miss you can distinguish a size at a glance, this is still a customized sample in the palace, I heard that the emperor's five princesses want to do, we are working overtime in the store, make it, you see this color, it is also very good, the most important thing is that the ruby in your hand is much more precious than this small ruby, so the whole level is on the next level."
The guy introduced skillfully and enthusiastically.
Is it custom-made by the five princesses? Mo Xuetong's heart moved, smiled and picked up the pair of earrings in the ruby head, gestured at the ear wearing the pendant, seemed to be very satisfied, put it down and asked: "Since it is a new style in your store, I don't know if you can also help me make a pair of heads, such a beautiful head is really rare, one or not as good as my customized phoenix hairpin, but this whole set is more beautiful than one." ”
The guy was a little embarrassed: "Miss, there are only two rubies in the store, one is for you to customize this hairpin, and the other is divided to make this complete set of heads. ”
"I heard that your store has a special channel to purchase precious gems, cat's eyes and other items, if I pay double the price, can you help me customize a similar set within these three days, the five princesses can choose from it, it is very suitable for the use of Miss Boudoir." The corners of Mo Xuetong's mouth smiled slightly, and said kindly.
The eyes fell on the head of the made ruby, and there was a bit of depth!
This set of ruby head is indeed suitable for ordinary ladies to wear, whether it is from the style or from the brightness of the gemstone, it is definitely a treasure, but it is also too suitable!
As the identity of the fifth princess, there is no kind of head face, there are specially customized craftsmen in the palace, what is needed, they will spend all their efforts and do their best to do it, because there is a special set of craftsmen, whether it is from the degree of beauty, or the degree of gorgeousness, it is not comparable to the head of the jewelry on the market.
With the flamboyant temperament of the five princesses, how could they specially let someone else come out to do it! Unless she has other uses, now the fifth princess should be more concerned about her marriage, and specially let people order such a set of ruby heads that are not worthy of her, Mo Xuetong felt weird inexplicably, if she remembered correctly, now she was the most jealous person of the fifth princess!
"Miss, if you can wait a moment, go and ask the shopkeeper in the shop." The partner obviously couldn't make the decision for a while, and rubbed his hands uneasily.
Mo Xuetong nodded in agreement.
The partner went out, came in after a while, and said with a smile: "Miss, it just so happened that another piece of ruby that was about the same arrived, but the quality was slightly worse, but it looks the same. ”
Mo Xuetong nodded, and changed her style slightly in a few dissatisfied areas before leaving with Mo Lan.
People are coming and going on the street, Mo Yufeng is sitting in a teahouse with a gloomy expression, his face looks a little pale, it is spring, the weather is good, and the small box in the single room is no longer hung with heavy curtains, replaced with light and somewhat windy bamboo curtains.
Through the warm breeze, watching the people coming and going on the street outside the window, it should have been refreshing, but Mo Yufeng put down the tea set in his hand because he had something in his heart, so he was in a good mood.
The curtain was gently lifted, and a clear voice with a smile came in: "Why, the trouble is like this, what is so urgent." ”
After saying that, a handsome young man walked in, dressed in a light blue, and his shirt made him look graceful.
"Yufeng, you must help me this time, otherwise I will die." When Mo Yufeng saw Qin Yufeng coming in, he got up eagerly, because he was in a hurry, he bumped into the corner of the table on the side, and he didn't care about the pain, so he came up and grabbed Qin Yufeng and pressed it on the chair on the side.
"What the hell is going on?" Qin Yufeng sat down unhurriedly, picked up the tea that Mo Yufeng had drunk for him, took a sip and asked with a smile.
"Something is wrong, the woman I talked to you about last time, you know, is the one I met in that alley, the one in red clothes......" Mo Yufeng said upside down, and he hurriedly kicked his feet on the spot before wiping the sweat on his head and said, "Last time you also said that she was beautiful and looked like a lady." ”
"I know, it's just a woman I met on the road, why did I have something to do with you?" Qin Yufeng turned his head sideways and asked blankly.
Mo Yufeng was a little overwhelmed by the question, sat down and poured himself a cup of tea, he didn't know what to say in his mouth, picked up the teacup and drank most of it immediately, put down the teacup, wiped his mouth casually, pulled the chair next to Qin Yufeng, and then lowered his voice and said a little embarrassed: "I'm on good terms with her!" ”
"You're on good terms with her?" Qin Yufeng repeated as if he didn't understand, and suddenly his eyes widened and he asked anxiously: "How can you get along with her, that woman is dressed in heavy clothes, and she clearly looks like a little widow, how can you ......?"
"I know, I know......" Mo Yufeng swallowed anxiously.
"Knowing that you still do such a thing, and that your father knows that he will not break your legs, I told you that day that although the woman looks like a lady, she is a new widow." Qin Yufeng turned his head and asked, the sunlight outside the window flashed and fell on his face, and the corners of his lips were slightly bent on the anxious face of Mo Yufeng.
"I know, but when I heard you say that, I think this woman is a pity, so I ......" Mo Yufeng said in a panic, "Who would have thought that slut would be someone else's outer room!" ”
"Outer room, then who is she wearing filial piety?" Qin Yufeng obviously didn't expect this result, he was stunned, put down the teacup in his hand and asked with a frown.
"It's for her mother, she's a prostitute in a green house at all, she was ransomed and raised outside, the day before yesterday, that person was actually at home, blocked me, let people press the handprint, let me give him five thousand taels of silver, how can I have any money now?" Thinking of the events of that day, Mo Yufeng gritted his teeth with hatred, that slut, he thought he had hooked the daughter of a white family, but he didn't expect it to be that kind of goods, and it made him embarrassed, and now there is nothing he can do.
"If I don't pay it back, he will send the paper I pressed my fingerprint to the yamen, not to mention what will happen to the yamen, if my father knows, he will immediately break my legs, Yufeng, you have to save me, you must save me."
"Five thousand taels of silver, that's too much." Qin Yufeng was embarrassed.
"Yufeng, you must help me this time, otherwise I will die, I promise to repay you in the future, and I will give you two cents of interest, how about it?" Mo Yufeng's heart was in a mess, as soon as he thought that this piece of paper would finally fall in front of Mo Huawen, he felt heartbroken, since Xu Yan entered the mansion, he deliberately made trouble and was caught by Mo Huawen, and after beating him happily in front of his subordinates, his life in Mo Mansion became more and more sad.
Everyone wants to get the new lady will inevitably give birth to a concubine, his concubine born to a concubine, how can he still get into the eyes of the master, even the most intelligent sister has been locked up by his father, Mo Yufeng is not even looking for someone to discuss now, Qin Yufeng used to live in Mo Mansion, and he has a good relationship with him, and he is the only person he wants.
At this time, no matter whether Qin Yufeng has money or not, the dead horse is regarded as a live horse doctor, just hoping to grasp this life-saving straw, and no matter whether he can pay it back in the future, he dares to say anything. ()
