Chapter 34: The Shop

Pei You said: "I have sent someone to keep an eye on the outside of the Lu Mansion and the bookstore, and if he appears tomorrow, he will be able to know in time." ”

He Lingjiang nodded, pondered for a moment and then slowly spoke: "There won't be much going on tomorrow, so I'll go and take a look." If Lu Liulang appears, I will pretend to go to the bookstore to buy books, or I can see something. ”

"Okay."

The people in the Lu Mansion have been living in a simple house recently, and Fan Yang is investigating, but there are not many clues that can be found here in Yingdu, and they only hope to get out of Lu Liulang's body.

On the second day, He Lingjiang deliberately chose a carriage without the logo of Hefu, and then went out early with Qiongzhi.

The carriage swayed to the alley where the bookstore was located, and then stopped at the entrance of the alley.

The curtain of the car was lifted, and He Lingjiang, who had been disguised, walked out with Qiong Zhi.

The two of them covered their faces a little, and their clothes and accessories were also changed, just like an ordinary little lady from a scholarly family leading her maidservant out of the shop.

There are tea shops, wine shops, pawnshops, and shops on both sides of the street, and there are also shops specializing in silk and satin, jewelry, spices, pen, ink, paper, inkstone, etc., which is bustling and lively.

There are also people around Pei Yu who are staring in the dark, Lu Liulang has not appeared at this time, if she sits in one place and waits, it is a little too deliberate, since she is here, she might as well take a walk.

Not far away, there is a two-story small building, with the words "Linglong Zhai" written on it, and it looks like a place to sell gold, silver and jade jewelry, she pointed: "Let's go, let's go to that store first." ”

At this time, there were not many people in the store, and when the guy saw someone coming to the door, he hurriedly greeted him with a smile: "Come in, two of you, please come in, we have a lot of good goods in our store recently, and the little ladies may be interested." ”

He Lingjiang looked around, and there were indeed a lot of good things in the store, such as jade and green feathers, white jade and white like clotted fat, agate red than Danxia, lapis lazuli blue like a clear sky, and tourmaline like peach blossoms, which complemented each other and were brilliant and dazzling.

These jade jewelry, made into accessories, or hairpins, hairpins, bracelets, or forbidden steps, jade pendants, fan pendants, and so on, all exquisite and luxurious.

When the man saw her dressed, he knew that even if her family was not extremely wealthy, she should be honest, and she looked like she was from a scholarly family.

He took out a hosta and handed it to He Lingjiang: "Little lady, look at this bamboo jasper hairpin, it is made of fine jadeite and carved by the master's hand. ”

He Lingjiang did not refuse, took the hairpin from the man's hand and looked at it carefully, and felt warm and delicate when he started.

The hairpin is fine and small, the whole body is transparent, verdant and dripping, like a thousand-year-old pond as quiet and deep. The hairpin body is ingeniously made into the shape of green bamboo, the lines are simple and neat, and there is no other decoration.

However, the craftsman used this seemingly simple process to show the charm of green bamboo well.

Living in poverty and self-encouragement, it lasts for four times and is always flourishing, enjoying a high reputation and perseverance.

Jade is a rare and good jade. The hairpin is also a rare good hairpin. She didn't expect that when she casually entered a shop, there would be such a good thing.

"I don't know if the little lady likes this hairpin?" The guy looked at her with a grin. The price of this hairpin is not low, but for these little ladies from the scholarly family, it is a good fit.

Since He Lingjiang came in, it was not easy to return empty-handed, but the shape of this hairpin was quite distinctive, she came in disguise, bought this thing and went back, but it was not good to bring it out again in the future.

She looked embarrassed, and seemed to be a little entangled in the price of the hairpin, and then shook her head and declined: "Thank you, I'll take a look at the things next to me." ”

The smile on the man's face did not change, and he led her to look to the side.

At this moment, there was a contemptuous sneer behind him, as if he looked down on her and was reluctant to buy something.

Qiong Zhi frowned secretly, but He Lingjiang's expression remained unchanged, and he turned to look behind him, only to see two luxuriously dressed little ladies coming together, followed by some servants and maids.

She is secretly picking, but she is not a complete stranger.

There are two in front of him, one is the little lady of the Zhongshu Ling family, and the other is the Cui family.

This book made the Zhao family originally from a poor family, but there was a Concubine Zhao Xian in the family, who jumped up, and then gave birth to a Duan Wang who won the sacred heart. As a result, the Zhao family has become more and more prominent in Yingdu over the years, and it is really different from the Hanmen Shu clan a few decades ago.

Fang Cai's sneer was made by the little lady of the Zhao family.

She also had a relationship with the two of them at the banquet in the eldest princess's mansion before, but now she is disguised, and these two people don't recognize her, they just think she is a little lady from an ordinary family.

Seeing her turn to look over, Cui Jiuniang couldn't help but be embarrassed, and nodded at He Lingjiang with a light smile.

He Lingjiang also replied lightly.

Zhao Sanniang was a little unhappy, and just opened her mouth to say something, but Cui Jiuniang pulled her sleeves: "Sanniang, don't you want to pick out some hairpin ornaments?" Let's take a look. ”

As she spoke, she pulled people inside, and Zhao Sanniang had no choice but to swallow back the unspoken words.

The two of them seemed to be familiar customers here, and the shopkeeper hurriedly greeted them when they saw them, leading them to the second floor.

He Lingjiang glanced at the back of the two of them without a trace, and turned his gaze away lightly.

The second lady of the Cui family is the concubine of Duan Wang, and she can't complain that the little lady of the Cui and Zhao families is so good.

The guy on the side looked at He Lingjiang's expression, and saw that there was no displeasure on her face, and hurriedly led her to look at other things.

Since he came in the name of visiting the shop, he couldn't go home empty-handed, He Lingjiang looked at the store for most of the day, and then chose two ornaments with decent styling styles and high prices, and took Qiongzhi out of the gate of Linglong Zhai.

Then, the two of them went to a few rouge shops and clothing shops, bought some things selectively, and saw that the sun had already risen overhead, so they found a tea shop and sat down.

The pantry is diagonally opposite the bookstore, and you can see the scene in front of the bookstore through the open window.

The bookstore is located at the corner of the street, it looks small, and there is a banner hanging on the door of the store, on which the word "book" is swaying slightly. On the left is a shop that specializes in the four treasures of the study.

The street was full of people, but compared to the shop next to it, the bookstore was much colder.

He Lingjiang sat for more than half an hour before one or two customers came to the door, went in and shook around, bought one or two books and came out.

It's past noon, the sun is receding, and on a summer afternoon, the whole street becomes lazy.

He Lingjiang sat in the tea shop for a long time, and finally saw an ordinary green canopy carriage stop not far from the bookstore.

One lifted the curtain, slowly got down from the carriage, and when he was settled, he flicked his sleeves and headed for the bookstore.

Her eyesight was so good that even if the man tried to hide it, she could see that there was a bit of stagnation between his steps and steps.

It's Lu Liulang, who has a lame foot.
