Qin's eyes were red, and he didn't have any complaints about his mother-in-law, although her husband had been resentful for many years, her mother-in-law had never put a face on her, but comforted her a lot.

"Mother, you have also suffered a lot of resentment from your husband with your daughter-in-law, in fact, if it wasn't for that incident back then, maybe there would be a few concubines who could spread the branches for your husband!" Qin said with a little regret.

When Mrs. Lu heard this, she wrinkled her brows and said, "What did you say, that woman has such a vicious mind, which one can tolerate her?" There are these concubines in the inner house, just to make the house restless, obviously still smart in major matters, but I don't understand the privacy of the inner house, so I will be coaxed by that woman, it is really unfortunate for the family! ”

Bai Mujin heard this, it seems that the eldest uncle had a concubine back then? And this concubine seems to be very restless, and there is a big incident, she has never heard of this in her previous life, and it happened a long time ago.

The eldest uncle has never taken a concubine over the years, and she is still regarded as the eldest uncle's dedication, but there is a hidden secret in it, Bai Mujian sighed, sure enough, every family has a scripture that is difficult to read.

Qin Shi wiped the corners of his eyes, as if he couldn't hold back his tears, and said: "Mother, don't hide it from you, I always feel that my husband still remembers the Xue family back then, is it wrong for you to say that we chose to hide the facts at the beginning?" The husband was afraid that he would blame me, thinking that I had played a trick to force the Xue family to death! ”

Old Madam Lu listened to Xue's words, her eyes widened, she gasped, and said, "What you said is true?" Is he really so confused? ”

Qin pursed his lips, as if it was extremely difficult to speak, looked at Bai Mu Hibiscus, and then said: "Mother, don't say it, it's not good in front of Jin'er!" ”

Bai Mujian has been watching her nose and nose, but she didn't care about these words, but the information spread in the words made her feel shocked, and a strange thought passed through her heart, but it was only a short moment, and it disappeared, and she couldn't grasp what it was.

Bai Mu Hibiscus shook his head, secretly blaming himself for being too careful, and Old Madam Lu seemed to realize that this topic was not suitable for discussion in front of Bai Mu Hibiscus after all, so she simply changed the topic and said something that didn't matter.

After chatting with Mrs. Lu and the Qin family for a long time, Bai Mujin said goodbye to the two elders, and she had another plan to go out today, so she couldn't stay for a long time.

Leaving the Lu family, she turned the carriage to the most prosperous street in the capital, speaking of which, there is also her mother's dowry shop, today she is ready to come to her shop to choose a few things that can be seen as Mu Xinping's makeup.

The carriage stopped in front of the shop of "Zhenbao Zhai", but found that there seemed to be a lot of doors in front of the shop, and when he got closer, even the shopkeeper was dozing off with his chin propped up, Bai Mujin couldn't help frowning, how did the Lu family manage the house, and these people who indulged were so lazy.

Bai Mujin suppressed the displeasure in his heart, and led the magpie and the mandarin duck in, buckled the counter, and the shopkeeper woke up, and when he saw a guest coming, he did not greet him very carefully: "Miss, what do you need?" ”

Bai Mu Hibiscus looked at the lattice where the precious jewels were placed, and some of them were covered with a layer of dust, those jewels were still the old style of the year before last, and the lady who could afford such a precious thing, where could she still see such an old style?

No wonder "Jumbo Zhai" looks so bad, the heart will be a fire to the up, just now she also noticed that the opposite of the "Linglong Fang" that has just opened a few years, but the business is booming, the carriage in front of the door is parked several, the store is full of guests coming and going, and their own "Jumbo Zhai" compared, it is really a cloud and mud difference.

She clearly remembered that Jumbo Zhai was still a well-known jewelry shop in the capital a few years ago, and the aristocratic circle was proud to have the latest style of jewelry in Jumbo Zhai. But in recent years, it has gradually fallen silent, in her previous life, she married, but Zhenbao Zhai has long been closed due to poor management, and the shop can only be rented to other families to earn some rent.

Now that I think about it, it must be the Lu family who is behind it, otherwise how could a prosperous shop be able to become like this in just a few years.

Bai Muhibiscus did not indicate his identity, only frowned and said: "Why are the ornaments in your shop so old, they are not popular for a long time, are there any new products for me to see?" ”

The shopkeeper glanced at Bai Hibiscus lazily, and seemed to be a little impatient and said: "That's all, you can live and see, although the objects in our shop are old, the available materials and work are definitely a top one, and other companies can't compare!" ”

"No matter how good the materials and work are, I haven't changed the style, and even such a valuable bead hairpin is covered with dust, how can I sell it? How the hell are you doing business, aren't you ready to close your doors? Hibiscus asked with feigned disdain.

The shopkeeper didn't care, but smiled contemptuously and laughed at himself: "Sooner or later, it will have to be closed, it's a pity that these decades of hard work have been ......."

Bai Mu Hibiscus asked in surprise, "What do you want to close?" In the early years, Jumbo Zhai was very popular, and my family had to buy a lot of jewelry in Jumbo Zhai every year! ”

The shopkeeper looked at Bai Hibiscus and saw that her eyes were very raw, so he did not shy away from saying, "You must rarely come to our shop to buy things by yourself, right?" I won't tell you the truth, now it's getting worse, and I'm gradually unable to make ends meet, I'm afraid that I won't be able to hold on to it in another year and a half. My family's skilled craftsmen have all been poached, how can Zhenbao Zhai continue to operate? ”

When Bai Mujian heard this, he also knew that this shopkeeper was not from the Lu family, and he may have married with his mother's shop in his early years, so he patiently asked: "Why would your craftsman ask another family to dig it up?" Generally speaking, these craftsmen have signed a death contract, which is a bit strange! ”

"Hey...... I don't understand it with you, it's all the master's business, those of us who are subordinates, where are we qualified to interject, a good treasure Zhai, I also spent a lot of effort, but how can my arms be twisted over my thighs, and someone is determined to let this shop go out of business, so what about the store that can't be closed? The shopkeeper shook his head, looking disheartened.

Bai Mujin secretly clenched her fists, it turned out that her mother's dowry was ruined like this, the Lu family is really a good means, then Linglong Fang must also be the Lu family's secret industry, right? It's really seamless, if I hadn't come to see it today, I wouldn't have known that she had done so much behind her back.

In order to prove his guess, Bai Mu Hibiscus took the magpie and the mandarin duck around the street, and the several shops he knew were all in the same situation, all of them were depressed, and there would be competitors in the same room or across the door, and the booming business was in stark contrast to it.

If there is no problem, then there is a ghost, Bai Hibiscus's face became more and more cold, and the mandarin duck and magpie could only accompany her silently.

"Let's go, let's go to Linglong Fang!" Bai Mu Hibiscus suddenly commanded, Linglong Fang was the most prosperous one in the business that robbed her family's original shop, so Bai Mu Hibiscus planned to start investigating from there, and she just needed a few pieces of head to give away.

When the magpie heard this, he immediately pouted and asked, "Miss, why do you want to go to Linglong Fang, they robbed our shop's business, and you still patronize them!" ”

"It's because they robbed us of our business that I'm going to patronize it, but I want to see why this Linglong Fang is so proud!" There was a cold light in Bai Mujian's eyes, and what she wanted Lu to eat was spit out for her.

The mandarin duck nodded, as if he understood the meaning of the white hibiscus, and stopped the carriage in front of the door of Linglong Fang. The mandarin duck and the magpie helped Bai Hibiscus get out of the car and walked into the shop.

Linglong Fang is indeed thoughtful, before they have even stepped into the threshold, there are two neatly dressed teenagers at the door, with a respectful but not flattering smile, which makes people unconsciously have a good feeling when they see it.

Bai Mu Hibiscus only glanced at them, and then walked in by himself, but he didn't want to meet an acquaintance, it was Lu Tian, who was waiting by his uncle's side, and was inspecting what seemed to be a customized set of red gold noodles. She only took a cursory glance, the design of the head face is unique and novel, with butterflies as the main body, a pair of step shakes, a hairpin, a pair of earrings, and a pair of carved gold bracelets. The materials and work are extremely particular.

As soon as Lu Tian turned around, he saw Bai Mu Hibiscus, and a panicked expression flashed on his face, if Bai Mu Hibiscus hadn't looked carefully, he would have really missed this fleeting expression of astonishment.

Lu Tian hurriedly saluted Bai Muhibiscus and said, "Miss Cousin is polite!" ”

Bai Mujin only nodded, and because of Lu Tian's performance just now, she asked more: "Is this what the eldest uncle wants to give to the eldest aunt?" ”

The reason why I didn't ask if it was the eldest aunt who set it herself, it was because Lu Tian was served by the eldest uncle Lu Zhaoran, and he only obeyed the orders of the eldest uncle, and if it was an object bought by the eldest aunt herself, he would not let him take it.

Lu Tian nodded with a smile and replied: "Yes, the eldest master personally asked the little one to come to Linglong Fang to customize!" ”

Bai Mujin nodded and said, "Oh, then you can go with your business!" ”

Lu Tian retired as if he had been amnestied, and only after walking out of the shop did he look back at Bai Hibiscus, and saw that she had already turned her back to look at the face of the shop, so he left with confidence.

Although Bai Mujin was puzzled, she didn't care much, after all, she came to investigate the "enemy situation", and carefully looked at the furnishings of Linglong Fang, which was well arranged, and the samples put out were all the latest styles, with novel and unique designs, exquisite workmanship, and dazzling colors, no wonder the business was so good.

However, she also saw that these designs and workmanship were very familiar, and they were very similar to the heads she had brought back from Zhenbao Zhai a few years ago.

She doesn't know much about jewelry, but because she often plays with it by herself, she can also see that each craftsman has his own style of making beads, even if he changes the style, these styles can't be changed.

happened to look at a pair of mutton fat and Tian Tongxin Pei was a little distracted, and the guy in charge of this piece enthusiastically took it out of the counter, put it in front of Bai Mu Hibiscus, and introduced: "Miss's vision is really good, this jade is the real mutton fat and Tian jade, look at this color, water and water, a good thing that money can't buy." If you fancy it, our store also has a set of heads, you can buy together, whether it is to give away or wear yourself, it is very face-saving! ”
