Chapter 40: A Man Who Wants to Spend Money For Women

Is it about the Xiao family's ceramic income in the next year? Wen Wen paused, looked up at him, and asked, "How much silver can you earn from ceramics in a year?"

"Why are you asking this?" Xiao Jingtang frowned, with an expression that a fool would tell you.

"Just ask, it doesn't matter if I know anyway. Gentle flat mouth: "If you have to be so stingy and refuse to say it, then forget it." ”

“......”

Half-lowered his eyes and stared at her, Xiao Fool said in a sullen voice: "Last year's net income was 120,000 taels, and if you can successfully become the imperial tribute this year, it will be doubled." ”

Ten...... 120,000?!And doubled?!Gentle was stupid, and looked at him like a frog with her mouth wide open.

Such a big business, if she really messed up the yellow, will Xiao Jingtang take her to the wolf forest again?

I shuddered, and I was a little cowardly: "I don't feel very well, can I not go to that conference?"

"No, I can't. Xiao Jingtang said: "The housewife of the Xiao family must attend, this is the rule." ”

said that it was a ceramic conference, but in fact, it was a group of profiteers...... Ah no, it's a secret contest between rich businessmen. Each circle has its own rules and procedures, and taking their families to show their importance to the conference, and by the way, letting their own women press others on their clothes and jewelry is also what the men are willing to do, after all, what each female family member wears is their own things.

Gentle and bitter face, his eyes looked left and right, but he didn't have the courage to look at Xiao Jingtang again.

Although Xiao Jingtang definitely won't know what good things she has done, but she is still under the eaves of the Xiao family, and she has to be present to watch this kind of thing of elbows turning out, and it is inevitable that she will be weak-hearted.

"What do you have to worry about?" Seeing her hesitation, Xiao Jingtang's expression moved slightly, and he turned his head to look at the jewelry on her dressing table.

The previous heads were all taken away by gentleness, and later they were repurchased after earning money. It's just that it's not very expensive, and it's okay to wear it normally, but if you want to go to the conference...... It's still a little chilly.

Speaking of which, he always buys jewelry for other women in the backyard, but he deliberately ignores her every time, ignoring that until now, he has really never bought anything for Du Wenrou.

Thinking of Steward Xiao's words, Xiao Jingtang pursed his lips and asked in a low voice, "Are you free now?"

"Huh?" Gentleness was still in a weak heart, and he answered blankly, not hearing what he was asking.

"Come with me. Wrapping his arms around her waist, Xiao Jingtang turned his head and ordered his subordinates: "Prepare the carriage." ”

"Where are you going?" shook off his hand uncomfortably, frowning gently.

Glancing at her and withdrawing his hand, Xiao Jingtang said lightly: "Lang Lin." ”

Wolf Forest?!Gentle face turned white, and immediately squatted on the ground, aggrieved and afraid: "Why did you take me to the Wolf Forest again? What did I do wrong? Do you have evidence!"

What do you mean? Second Young Master Xiao looked at her inexplicably: "I'm talking about the Xiao family's Langlin jewelry shop, what do you think?"

The jewelry shop was gentle, then stood up and bared his teeth fiercely: "What is the name of a good jewelry shop? You don't know I'm afraid of there, do you?"

“......”

There was a strange soreness in his heart, Xiao Jingtang lowered his eyes, and was silent for a long time before he said: "That time you bullied others first, no wonder I taught you a lesson." ”

"Alright, alright. Wen Wen also knew that she didn't pay attention to it at the time, and hummed: "If you want to go, go quickly, I'm still in a hurry to come back to sleep." ”

This woman, is it just to sleep or eat every day? Xiao Jingtang shook his head and glanced at her body. It hasn't grown into a pig yet, and it's rare.

Xiao Ji's jewelry shop occupies a whole mahogany green tile building on the most prosperous street, and it is the time when business is good in the afternoon.

"Are you going to buy me jewelry?" gently raised his eyebrows and sighed twice: "It's also rare, and I'm finally willing to spend money for me." ”

Although many girls are self-reliant and self-reliant, they don't like to spend men's money, and even give men money to spend, but men are such things, there is machismo that has flowed for thousands of years in their bones, raising a wife and spending money on his wife are a kind of nature, he is willing to spend money for you, that is really like you, even if he doesn't like it in the future, he is reluctant to leave easily, after all, he has made a bloody investment.

So although she doesn't like to ask men for money to spend, when men take the initiative to spend, it is still acceptable.

"You can't afford to wear much jewelry. ”

I was in a good mood, and the fool next to me spit out such a sentence.

The gentle face sank instantly, and he looked sideways at him and said, "What do you mean? Buy me something or add to me? If you don't want to buy it, just say it, I don't want it yet!"

With that, he turned around and wanted to leave.

Xiao Jingtang was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly reached out to pull the person away, frowning and glaring at her.

"What are you doing?" said softly and impatiently, "Your eyes are amazing?"

With a light snort, Second Young Master Xiao didn't explain much, and pulled her into the door of Langlin Jewelry Shop.

This jewelry shop has a total of three floors, the first floor has many people, the second floor has few people, and the third floor is empty. Gentle muttered while going upstairs: "Are you a psychopath, saying that I am worthless, and pulling me to see the most expensive?"

"The one on top is not the most expensive. Xiao Jingtang said seriously: "It's the most unsellable, you can pick two pieces at random, just lining you." ”

Gentleness: "......"

I've never seen such a man who can't speak, why hasn't his tongue been pulled out yet?!

The accompanying man laughed sullenly, led them up to the third floor, and then took a few boxes covered with brocade, opened them one by one and put them in front of Gentle.

There are many modern high imitations, and the gentle appreciation ability is not high at all, just looking at the style and feeling that these jewelry are quite monotonous, so I looked at it silently.

Xiao Jingtang's face was tense, but his heart was a little drumming. Steward Xiao said that women like jewelry, but why did this person look at these and didn't react at all?

Don't you think it's good enough?

After thinking about it, he said, "Bring the rosewood box with it." ”

"Yes. The man answered, and carefully took out a rosewood box from the cabinet with three locks, which was paved with soft yellow brocade, and the yellow brocade was lined with a set of gold ornaments inlaid with emeralds, and the carving was extraordinarily exquisite.

Gently looked at it and said, "This should be quite valuable, right?"

"Why do you think it's valuable?" Xiao Jingtang asked.

"Because it's golden. Gentleness said as it should: "The color is very pure gold, you see, much brighter than these." ”

Dude: "......"

Xiao Jingtang: "......"

The first time I met someone who didn't look at emeralds, he thought that gold was valuable! He smiled angrily, shook his head and instructed the guy: "Wear this valuable gold jewelry for the second young grandmother." ”

"Yes. The man answered, carefully picked up the necklace, and was about to put it on for Wen Wen, but Xiao Jingtang suddenly reached over and took the chain away.

"I'll come, you go down. ”

With an inexplicable face, the guy was obedient, touched the back of his head and went downstairs.

Unscrewing the chain buckle, Second Young Master Xiao seriously wrapped his hand around her gentle neck, and then slowly buckled it behind her neck.

Gentle frowned and moved uncomfortably.

This person's action is too ambiguous, his chin is about to rub against her cheek, can't he stand behind her and buckle it!

I said. She couldn't help but speak: "Are you taking advantage of me?"

"Huh?" Xiao Jingtang didn't have any expression on his face, and swept her with disgust: "Where is there a advantage to take advantage of?"

His expression was not flustered, and his words were serious, he was really tying the necklace seriously, and he didn't mean anything else. swallowed gently, thinking that she probably thought too much, this person was normal when he didn't eat aphrodisiac food, how could he want to eat her tofu.

So she tied his neck to him with a necklace of incense, then earrings, bracelets, and tiara.

"You're lying to me, aren't you?" looked at the appearance of this set of jewelry in the bronze mirror, and squinted gently: "Where can this not be sold? ”

Isn't it better than downstairs? This set of jewelry is a treasure in the town.

Xiao Jingtang didn't answer her, he looked at the head with satisfaction, and then looked at her clothes, and began to look disgusted again: "How long have you not made new clothes?"

He looked down at his dress and shrugged gently: "Don't you think it's pretty good? The material is also very good, and it is still the red color that the main room should have, and the pattern is also good." ”

"The eldest lady of the Du family is so shallow, no one will believe it. With a sneer, Xiao Jingtang dragged her downstairs, and met many young ladies and ladies on the way, all of whom looked gentle like monsters.

"What do they mean by that?" Gentle frowned and looked down at herself, "This dress is really ugly?"

It's not a matter of clothes, Xiao Jingtang snorted and said, "Since you know, hurry up and redo your body, it's still too late to go to the embroidery building today." ”

Gentle frowning: "If I'm not mistaken, your hand-embroidered here, a good piece of clothing, how can it take ten days and half a month to make it?"

Sneering, Xiao said in surprise: "We don't have time, do you still want to embroider?"

No one told her to prepare clothes in advance, so she said unhappily: "Then it's better to go back to the wardrobe and choose, at least there are embroidered ones." ”

"You like embroidery?"

"I don't like it very much, but don't you rich people here wear it like that?"

Don't start, Xiao Jingtang didn't make a sound, and when the carriage arrived at the place, he pulled her down.

"Xiangxiu Pavilion. Glancing at the plaque, and then at the lobby where there was no one, he raised his eyebrows gently: "Why is this business so bad?"

Xiao Jingtang, who was walking in front, almost stumbled, turned around and glanced at her with disdain, and went in with someone: "If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense, stand up obediently." ”

Did she say something wrong? Gently glanced at the lobby, there was indeed not a single guest!
