Chapter 497: Go to the dowry shop
Is her role today a solution to people's doubts? At this time, Zhang Mengjie really didn't want to talk anymore, she never knew that talking was so tiring and consuming brain cells.
"When you calm down, you will think about why." Zhang Mengjie raised her eyes and saw the private room they were going to and said, "I can't say a sentence or two, and it's not appropriate to say it here."
It was also a coincidence that when they were about to go to the private room, they saw Qingfeng and several people on the opposite side, including Chunlan who Xiao Meier asked her to come back first. The four members of the Xu family and Shi Lang also came together.
It may be that the people in the private room heard the sound outside, and before the two people reached the private room, the people inside came out.
"Where are you going now?" After everyone gathered together, Yu Xilang asked.
"Naturally, it's the destination to go out today!" Although Zhang Mengjie didn't say anything about the dowry shop, it still made Qingfeng blush. When Xiao Chengyi told her last night that he was going to take her to worship all the people who had a relationship with her today, he knew that this was the purpose of Xiao Chengyi taking her out, and buying a dowry was just a reason to leave the palace.
"Is there a shop here that we're going to buy?" Zhang Mengjie asked Xu Dongjia, who was relatively familiar with this place.
Since Zhang Mengjie mentioned several times that she came out this time to accompany her good sister to buy a dowry, Xu Dongjia had already guessed that this good sister was Qingfeng. There seems to be more than one dowry shop here!
"Yes, or I'll let Shi Lang accompany you, he knows this place well." Xu Dongjia saw Shi Langdao beside him.
"No, we're still thinking about walking around, it's inconvenient for Shilang to follow us, so let him do more things he will do in the future. Xu Dongjia, don't forget what I told you. Zhang Mengjie deliberately glanced at Shi Lang a few more times.
"Don't worry, girl, you won't forget it." Xu Dongjia assured.
"Then Xu Dongjia tell me where the dowry shop is here?"
This is also a downtown area, how can there be no dowry shop? However, I have rarely come here in recent years, and this street has also changed, is this dowry shop next door to the tea house or next to the jade shop? When Xu Dongjia was still thinking about it, Shi Lang on the side said, "Is the girl going to get married?"
The woman's bun on her head was on her head, and Zhang Mengjie didn't believe that Shi Lang didn't see it: "It's not me, it's her." Zhang Mengjie used her eyes to tell Shi Lang who really wanted to buy the dowry.
Shi Lang knew that Zhang Mengjie was already a wife, but he just didn't know who the lucky one could marry such a stunning and smart person. When he saw Zhang Mengjie at first sight, Shi Lang had a feeling that no one could blaspheme this beautiful woman who didn't know if she was good-looking or good-looking. So even if she knew that Zhang Mengjie was a wife, she still subconsciously felt that she was holy.
Shi Lang put aside the messy thoughts in his mind and replied for Xu Dong's family: "Originally, there was only one dowry shop here, next to the teahouse. But the owner of the teahouse is not easy to mess with, and the two families are not peers without a relationship of interest at the beginning, although there is some small friction, but the owner of the dowry shop is a good match, so the two families can barely get by. But then when the dowry shop man opened the door, the contents were either wet or wet, and sometimes even the whole shop was covered with water. Everyone knows who did this kind of thing, but the businessmen are all concerned about making money in harmony, so the dowry shop was moved to the opposite side of the fifth jade shop under the restaurant. ”
Xiao Chengyi just took Qingfeng out of the palace to worship his relatives on the grounds of buying a dowry, and he didn't really think about buying a dowry. Now seeing Zhang Mengjie talking to people about the dowry and several other women excitedly talking about going to the dowry shop to see the dowry there, he won't disturb their interest, and even if he uses the dowry as a reason, it can't be said that he hasn't seen anything related to it.
Zhang Mengjie said: "Okay, we know!" He said to Xu Dongjia again: "Then let's go first, let's go to Ma Bo if we have something."
Xu Dongjia said: "I'll send you out."
Zhang Mengjie said: "We don't have to send it, but if the Xu Dongjia has nothing to do, they can go to some places first to see some of the ingredients they need."
This is not like the modern era, where as long as you have money, you can buy what you want whenever you want. There are a lot of things that are hard to buy without booking in advance.
Xu Dongjia originally thought that Shi Lang and Xu Jinghao had not yet succeeded in learning this sand fruit, and wanted to delay it for a few days before starting with what Zhang Mengjie handed him today, but after listening to Zhang Mengjie's words, he thought that it would be good to prepare early: "Thank you girl for reminding me!" Then I'll go out with you! ”
"Okay." Zhang Mengjie said and motioned for Xu Dongjia to go first.
When everyone left the restaurant, they found a problem, that is, the carriage and horses they came in seemed to be inconvenient to carry together. For the time being, they just wander around this street, although the street is not narrow and it is always inconvenient. In the end, Zhang Mengjie asked Lu Deshun and Zhou Li to bring the carriage and horses to the horse shop, and let the people of the horse shop take care of it first.
Because the direction of Xu Dongjia and Zhang Mengjie and his party is different, but it is exactly the direction of going to the horse shop, so Xu Dongjia took Lu Deshun and Zhou Li to the horse shop first.
With Shi Lang's guidance, Zhang Mengjie and his party also found the dowry shop easily. You don't have to look for this dowry shop, the big red lantern at the door and the word "四" on it can be seen at a glance what is being sold inside. The strange thing is that in addition to what Shi Lang said, he vaguely saw that there was a dowry shop in front of him.
Shi Lang has been here for more than ten years, and he can clearly know all the dowry shops and teahouses not far in front of him, how could he not know that there is another dowry shop. Since he didn't mention the dowry shop, he had his own reasons, and Zhang Mengjie didn't see the dowry shop.
Zhang Mengjie didn't see it, but someone wasn't: "Hey, isn't it also a dowry shop in front?" Why didn't Brother Shi say it? The sharp-eyed Qingyu saw the red in front and asked the Chunlan beside him, Qiu Ju.
"Shi Lang didn't mention the shop for his own reasons, since that's the case, let's just assume that the shop doesn't exist."
Qingyu also quickly understood the truth, and with an "oh" sound, he followed the people in front of him into the dowry shop they were going to.
As soon as I entered the dowry shop, I felt a festive atmosphere. At a glance, everything inside is red, with cloth, embroidered wedding dresses, embroidered shoes, embroidered bags, headscarves, pillowcases, quilt covers, quilts, and all kinds of cut characters. The pattern on it has mandarin ducks playing in the water, or embroidered with a few simple Xi characters, as well as all kinds of flowers, the most of which is peonies.
The guys inside saw that so many people suddenly came to the shop, and at first they thought they were here to make trouble, and their faces changed. Later, I saw that all the eyes were on the embroidery in the shop, and several of them were not simple people at first glance, and they didn't look like wicked people, so the guy greeted them.
