Chapter 100: Together
"Sister Weimang, do you think this looks good? I heard that it was a gem from Qionglai, but my brother said that it was not suitable for me and would not let me buy it. However, Sister Weimang's age is just right. ”
Women, big and small, love gemstones for brilliance.
Since the last time Cheng Mo stayed in Lufu drunk, they seemed to have resumed their relationship when they arrived in Nanyang County, Cheng Mo didn't come forward often, but Xiaojin often asked people to bring her to Lufu to find Lu Weimang and others.
Today, Lu Weimang rested, and when the two met, they naturally made an appointment to go shopping.
"Brother is often busy with business and can't take care of me, the brothers and sisters of the uncle's family are old and don't care much about me, so I can only come to play with Sister Weimang. Brother has made some money over the years, I bought this gem and gave it to Sister Weimang, I heard Brother say that Sister Weimang is an official and should be busy with official business, but recently because of me, I have delayed Sister Weimang's time. ”
Xiao Jin said, his big apricot eyes drooping, and he seemed a little embarrassed. Looking at Xiao Jin's pitiful appearance, Lu Weimang took Xiao Jin's hand, squatted down and was level with her, staring at Xiao Jin in front of him, "If you want to come and play with me, just come over, and if you have something to say, you can tell me directly." Friends can help each other, Not to mention that when you were a child, I treated you as a sister. ”
Xiao Jin's watery apricot eyes flashed, and she seemed to be excited, "I knew that Sister Weimang wouldn't dislike me." The brothers and sisters of the uncle's family also said that Sister Weimang became an official and would not have too much contact with the old people in the past, and I heard that the person who married Sister Weimang was the legendary Huo Hou, if one day, Sister Weimang and Huo Hou could go with me to meet the brothers and sisters of the uncle's family, let them know that Sister Weimang is not the kind of snobbish person they say! ”
Lu Weimang listened and shook his head, "Xiaojin, everyone in this world has a mouth, if you go to your heart for anything, then you will be unhappy." Sister Weimang hopes that you can live a simpler and happier life, you know? ”
Xiao Jin nodded blankly, "Xiao Jin knows, let's ignore those annoying guys." ”
Lu Weimang touched Xiaojin's head, stood up, and said to the shopkeeper Yu who was standing and waiting, "Is there any ruboury suitable for children to wear, help me wrap it." ”
The shopkeeper of Zhucui Pavilion was smiling at this time, "Lord Lu, you are our old customer of Zhucui Pavilion, I have already prepared the best for you, you wait here, I will go and bring you the red treasure at the bottom of the box." ”
Shopkeeper Yu said, beckoned his subordinates to come and serve, and he personally went to the warehouse to get the goods.
"Sister Weimang, this shopkeeper is really snobbish, I came earlier, said I wanted to see the best rubour, and he showed me this set on the table. Unexpectedly, as soon as Sister Weimang appeared, he said that there was a better bottom of the box in the library. ”
The child's voice was crisp and innocent, but it made the men waiting on the side sweat on their foreheads.
"This young lady, you misunderstood, this set of rubies, the quality is really difficult to find on the market, you go out of the Zhucui Pavilion, go elsewhere, you may not be able to find such a quality. It's just that Lord Lu prefers red treasures, and the trade route from Kyoto to Qionglai, which is currently being underway, has also benefited us a lot from Zhucui Pavilion, so the shopkeeper specially prepared one or two sets of red treasures in case Lord Lu needs them from time to time. ”
"I didn't say anything, what are you doing so nervous? The sweat is out, wipe it quickly. Sister Weimang, did I say it casually and scare others? ”
Xiao Jin hurriedly took out a handkerchief and was about to hand it to this guy, and looked at Lu Weimang with a pair of innocent apricot eyes and said.
Lu Weimang hooked his lips and smiled, "You go down first, I've been here a few times, so I don't have to wait." ”
Lu Weimang said this, and the guy finally breathed a sigh of relief, "The little one went down to see how the shopkeeper was." ”
Lu Weimang looked at Xiao Jin in front of him, "Your brother Cheng Mo took you back to Cheng's house at the beginning, and I don't know if it's a good thing." ”
Xiao Jin can't allow others to question his eldest brother, even Lu Weimang, "Sister Weimang, my brother has not been easy these years. However, although there are many people in the Cheng Mansion, fortunately, the Cheng Mansion also has some roots, the uncle is an official in Beijing, and the eldest brother has some reliance on business. ”
Lu Weimang nodded, "It's good if you think it's worth it." ”
After a while, the shopkeeper personally came into the private room with two jewelry boxes, he should know the reason why the guy went out, so when he saw that there were only two people in the private room, Lu Weimang and Xiaojin, he didn't ask much, and directly introduced the jewelry in his hand with a smile on his face, "You see that I specially left you a red treasure." Although at first glance it looks similar to the set of materials on the table. But the top ruby has reached a certain point, the color is thick, the rarity, you look at these two sets of ruby luster, as if there is spirituality. This grade of ruby is known locally as a living gemstone. Therefore, our owners do not use this to create jewelry, but only keep the original stone for you to have a suitable opportunity to use it later. ”
Lu Weimang picked up one, and the mysterious fluorescence on it was indeed extraordinary.
But the shopkeeper is a pearl secretly invested, although she loves jewelry, but not to the point of obsession with it. If this fluorescent jewel reaches the hands of someone who truly loves it, it will be cherished as much as life. But Lu Weimang only loved it as a gemstone.
"Your host has a heart, help me wrap it up. How much do these two gems cost? ”
The shopkeeper waved his hand again and again, "I received it from Qionglai, it didn't cost much, but it cost some travel expenses, just when we Zhucui Pavilion honored you." You have opened up the trade route from Kyoto to Qionglai, which has saved us a lot of capital for Kyoto businessmen, so how can you be embarrassed to accept your money? ”
Xiao Jin listened, his eyes were full of brilliance, and he looked at Lu Weimang opposite, as if he had re-acquainted himself with the "Sister Weimang" in his memory.
Lu Weimang only looked at the shopkeeper in front of him, smiling silently.
In the end, the shopkeeper couldn't hold it and quoted a price, "Lord Lu's official authority is offended." ”
Lu Weimang took out the silver ticket from his purse, and Xiao Jin hurriedly stopped him, "Sister Weimang, didn't you say that Xiao Jin bought it and gave it to Sister Weimang?" ”
Lu Weimang didn't say much, only handed the silver ticket to Shopkeeper Yu, "Wrap that set of ruby jewelry too." ”
"It's better for Sister Weimang to buy it and give it to Xiaojin."
Seeing that Sister Weimang's eyes were dark and calm, Xiao Jin consciously no longer pushed, but took the box of jewelry.
Lu Weimang went downstairs with two rare rubouries and went shopping with Xiaojin.
"Sister Weimang, I originally asked Sister A to go shopping, but it turned out that Sister Ah broke the bank. When Brother comes back and knows, I'm afraid he will blame me. ”
Lu Weimang only smiled, "Okay, I know that your brother has made money, and my sister has earned a lot." There is still money to buy you a box of jewelry. ”
Xiao Jin became excited at this time, clapped his hands and laughed, "Yes, although I have not been in Kyoto with my brother for a long time, I have also heard of the name of my sister's "Little God of Wealth"!" ”
The two walked aimlessly, but Xiao Jin suddenly exclaimed, "Sister, is that Huo Hou?" He seems to be in the Drunken Immortal Pavilion over there! ”
Lu Weimang looked at Xiao Jin's hand, the position of the window on the second floor of the Drunken Immortal Pavilion, Huo Jing's figure was exposed under the cover of the paper window, revealing half of it, at this time, the weather was hot and cold, and it had not completely warmed up, and the sound of a wisp of bamboo came out along the half-open window, and there were some informal people, laughing, drinking and having fun.
Lu Weimang had never seen Huo Jing at this kind of banquet, stared at it for a while, wondering if Huo Jing at this time was still as cold and self-contained as before, or like a boat pushing the river.
"Miss Lu?"
Lin Chen's voice suddenly came, waking up the two people upstairs and downstairs.
Lu Weimang withdrew his gaze from the second floor and looked at Lin Chen in front of him.
Huo Jing on the second floor heard the voice and turned his head, and Ding Yi behind him went down directly from the window on the second floor, and found Lu Weimang's figure not far from the entrance of the Drunken Immortal Tower.
"Young master, there."
Huo Jing turned his head to look at Lu Weimang, and happened to meet Lu Weimang's gaze when he looked up, "Miss Lu, don't get me wrong. Today, the young master has something to visit, so he will come to this drunken immortal building with others. In the past, we passed by here and didn't even look at it. ”
Lin Chen's stammering voice of explanation came.
Lu Weimang also retracted his gaze, looked at Lin Chen, who was so anxious that his head was sweating, and said coldly, "I just went out shopping today, what are you anxious about?" ”
Lin Chen didn't want to be in a hurry, she wasn't afraid that Miss Lu would misunderstand the young master, so he stammered and explained, "There are a few old people from the Yulin Army, and the young master invited them to drink, but who knew that they actually chose the Drunken Immortal Building." You can rest assured, our young master has always been clean and self-conscious, but he can't look down on these happy girls here. ”
Lu Weimang originally thought it was interesting, and when he came out to go shopping, he actually ran into Huo Jing, but he felt bored after listening to Lin Chen's explanation, "You don't have to tell me this, you have no obligation to report to me." You're busy, I still have something to do. ”
As he spoke, he wanted to take Xiao Jin away, but a voice came, making Xiao Jin stop, and Lu Weimang also stopped, "Of course he has the obligation to report to you, you are his future young master." ”
Huo Jing strode out of the Drunken Immortal Building and walked to Lu Weimang's side, "Today's Xiu Mu, I originally wanted to go to the Lu Mansion to find you in the afternoon, but I didn't expect to see you here." ”
"I've seen Huo Hou."
Lu Weimang was silent, and Xiao Jin's clever salute broke the silence.
Huo Jing's eyes swept over Xiao Jin, knowing that she was Cheng Mo's sister, "Hmm." With a voice, the attitude couldn't be more cold, but Xiao Jin didn't care, and pulled Lu Weimang's arm, "Sister Weimang, Huo Hou is looking at you." ”
Lu Weimang looked at the sky, "I originally wanted to walk around for a while today, but now I'm not interested." Xiaojin, did Cheng Mo say when he would pick you up? ”
Xiao Jin looked at Huo Jing on the side timidly, and whispered, "If my brother says that if it goes well today, I will be able to finish my work in time." ”
"That's right, let's go home, and we'll have a chance to visit again in the future."
Lu Weimang pulled Xiaojin to turn around and go home, and Huo Jing followed behind Lu Weimang without saying a word.
Xiao Jinda's eyes were a little uneasy, and he whispered, "Sister, is it okay to ignore Huo Hou?" Brother said that when men are outside, they all love face. ”
Although Xiao Jin's words were light, but all the people present were people with sensitive facial features, Lu Weimang's face was still expressionless, Huo Jing and Lu Weimang's expressions were the same, and even had some coldness. The corners of Lin Chen's mouth twitched, and he couldn't wait to change Ding Yi, who was still entertaining in the Drunken Immortal Building, "He can't cope with this situation." ”
