Chapter 122: Entering the Qi Mansion by Skill
"Although our aunts and grandmothers have already bought hairpins, how can this woman love beauty enough, maybe the girl, your hairpin is better than what they bought before, it's not that it can't be accommodating. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info" The two-bearded servant said as he reached out and wanted to touch the back of Zhong Qing's hand.
Zhong Qing pressed hard under her feet, turned around slightly, dodged the other party's hand, and said with a slightly shy look: "What the eldest brother said is that the little woman is doing a small business, seeing that the sun is sinking, and there are still so many that have not been sold, if you go back, you will be scolded by your father again, so please make it convenient for the two eldest brothers." ā
At this time, the servant behind the two beards came over, straightened his belly, and said with a wicked smile: "Didn't my brother say it just now, it's not that you can't be accommodating, it depends on whether the girl is interested or not." ā
"Then what should I do?" Zhong Qing's beautiful eyes showed doubts and puzzlement, of course, these were just pretenses.
"Girl, you can earn a few bucks by selling these things all day long, and it is better to drink some wine with your brother, which is a hundred times stronger. As he spoke, he stepped forward and stretched out his hand.
Zhong Qing turned around and walked behind the two beards, "It's getting dark soon, Daddy won't let me go back late, let alone let me drink, if the eldest brother really wants to, then I have to wait until Daddy falls asleep at night." ā
After going back and forth, Zhong Qing kept teasing the two guards with words, which made the two of them itch unbearably, and said in her heart that this stupid girl was too young after all, and she was so ignorant of the world, so easy to take the bait, and she was immediately happy in her heart.
How could they have expected what medicine Zhong Qing was in the gourd, so they looked at each other and smiled, dodged a way, and let Zhong Qing pass through the middle.
Seeing that Zhong Qing was about to step into the threshold, the two beards suddenly seemed to remember something, and asked: "Girl, slow down, look at you not like a local, where do you live, where do we go to find you at night?
Zhong Qing looked back and smiled: "My father and I live in a small inn opposite Pengkeju, and the two eldest brothers will wait there at night, and I will naturally come out." ā
When Zhong Qing and Ye Cheng stayed in Peng Keju, they had already paid attention to the surrounding environment, and found that there were many large and small inns around Peng Keju, and the decoration was naturally far behind, but it must also be very cheap, specially prepared for those travelers who wanted to stay but were unwilling to spend a lot of money.
At that moment, the two beards groaned slightly, then waved their hands, let Zhong Qing in, and asked the big-bellied servant to take her to find the residence of the female dependents outside Qi Yuan, but his mind was full of thoughts about the good things tonight.
Zhong Qing carefully observed the situation in the courtyard while walking, but saw that this Qi Mansion was really magnificent, with continuous corridors, rockeries standing in the courtyard, and man-made streams flowing, and even the plants planted in the courtyard were extraordinary, so it could be seen that this Qi Shengtian must have scavenged a lot of people's fat and people's ointment. Since the prefect couldn't help him, and the people had nothing to do, Zhong Qing decided to personally rectify this Qi staff.
"When I arrive, there are rules in the house, I can't go in, let the maid Cui Hong at the front door take you in, don't forget the things at night." The big-bellied servant didn't forget to remind Zhong Qing in the end.
Zhong Qing smiled at the servant, and then walked straight to the maid at an arch in the courtyard.
The maid had already seen the two of them, but she hadn't seen Zhong Qing before, so she looked at the big-bellied servant with puzzled eyes.
"It's a hairpin seller.,Go and let the heroines take a look.,Buy a few if you need it.,Just send it away if you don't need it.ć The big belly said that, and turned around and left.
"It's a coincidence that you came, just recently the fourth grandmother had a birthday, and wanted a jade wishful hairpin, but the master was not free to buy it, these days are in a mood, if you have good goods, the fourth grandmother will not treat you badly. Cui Hong said to Zhong Qing with a smile.
Zhong Qing said secretly in his heart: "What did the two servants say just now that the woman here has just bought a hairpin, listening to this maid, isn't it that she hasn't bought it, this kind of servant is full of nonsense, it's really hateful, it is not false to see that the ancient ghost is difficult." ā
Zhong Qing thought in her heart, but said with a timid smile on her face: "There is Sister Lao." ā
Cui Hong was a gentle maid, so she didn't embarrass Zhong Qing immediately, and took her inside.
Zhong Qing paid attention to the surrounding paths, followed slowly behind, and when she reached a room, the emerald red maid held her footsteps and whispered: "The fourth grandmother is now playing with the other three grandmothers in the house to play with the gifts given by the master on her birthday, you should pay attention to talking after you go in, these grandmothers are not easy to mess with, especially the fourth grandmother, you must be respectful, understand?"
Zhong Qing nodded with a smile, shook Cuihong's hand and said, "Thank you, sister, sister must pay attention." ā
Cui Hong snorted, then cleared her throat and slammed the door.
"Who?" said a lazy voice.
"It's me, Fourth Grandma, Cuihong, don't you want a good hairpin, there is a girl who sells hairpins today, I heard that the ones sold are all foreign goods, I brought them to you, do you want to take a look?" Cuihong said through the door.
"Dead girl, it's really a caring person, okay, let her in, if the goods are good, the fourth grandmother will not reward you." The sound inside became pleasant.
Cui Hong nodded at Zhong Qing, then pushed the door and led Zhong Qing in.
Zhong Qing came in, but saw that there were all kinds of handicrafts displayed in a huge living room, which was really dazzling. But for Zhong Qing, following Zhong Wanhou to walk and trade has never seen any rare treasures, although these things in front of him are precious, they are too commonplace.
"Come and see, sister, what do you think of this?" said a young woman dressed in a bewitching fashion to another, an older woman.
The woman smiled and took a little jade Buddha, and sighed: "If you don't say that my sister is the most favored, you see these things sent by the master, but I have never seen it as a grandmother." ā
A young woman on the side sighed and said: "If you want to say that this man, not all of them like the new and hate the old, if you have the second child, you will forget the eldest child, and if you have the third child, you will forget the second child, if you have the fifth child at this time......
The old woman glared at her, and the young woman smiled and covered her mouth, and said no more.
"Why didn't my sister say it? Do you want to say that when there is a fifth child, you will forget the fourth child, right? My sister is embarrassed to say it, so my sister will say it for you, but what my sister said is indeed reasonable, but if you forget the fourth child at that time, then where should the second child be, wouldn't it be even worse?" After the youngest woman handed the jade Buddha out, she shook the embroidery fan and said slowly.
Zhong Qing saw the four women in front of him arguing sarcastically here, but no one paid attention to him, and the emerald red beside him stood with his hands down in a regular manner, and he didn't dare to say a word.
Zhong Qing suddenly sighed and said: "Poor and sad, no one knows Baoluo Wilderness, there are many rich people in this world, but there are few people with eyesight, so let's go around elsewhere." Then he turned around and was about to leave.
Cui Hong didn't know why Zhong Qing was here, and just wanted to stop her, but she heard a voice behind her say: "Hey, I'm not old, but my tone is not small, let's take a look, what good goods can you really have like this?"
Zhong Qing didn't put down the burden, but continued: "Young grandmother, I dare not say if there are any good goods, but the little girl dares to guarantee that every one of these burdens is a hundred times stronger than the jade Ruyi hairpin, if you don't look at it, I can't do it in vain?"
As soon as she heard the jade wishful hairpin, the four young grandmothers thought about it, originally she lost her temper for several days because Qi Shengtian did not buy her a satisfactory hairpin on her birthday, at this time, seeing this girl say so, it seems that she is confident, maybe there are really good goods in the baggage, you might as well take a look at it first, if there is a satisfactory one, when the time comes, pick it out and let the old man Qi pay.
Thinking of this, the fourth young grandmother put the folding fan and said with a smile: "Open it and let the fourth young grandmother take a look." But don't underestimate us, what is a good product, what is a lot of indiscriminate filling, we can see a lot, you can see through it at a glance. ā
Although Zhong Qing was full of hawkers' stalls in the baggage, not to mention the expensive ones, even the valuable ones were not there, but he did not panic at all, and still did not open the baggage at the moment, but said: "These goods are all high-quality goods that I bought from my father to the south and north, not to mention the material, it can be said that they are all high-grade based on the origin alone, but they are ......."
"But what?" asked the fourth young grandmother.
"It's just that everyone says that although Qi Shengtian has money, he values money more than anything else, so the little woman is afraid ......" Zhong Qing deliberately wanted to speak and stopped.
The fourth young grandmother was really angry and laughed when she heard this, and immediately said: "Are you afraid that Qi Yuan has money, but our sisters don't have money?"
As soon as these words came out, the other three women also laughed, but the laughter was full of ridicule and ridicule.
Zhong Qing didn't care, nodded and said: "Yes, in case I expose the goods, the young grandmother takes a fancy to it, and I have no money to give but I want to stay, how can I, a weak woman, beat so many of you." ā
The fourth young grandmother snorted and said, "Little girl, don't try to fool me, the goods haven't been shown to me yet, it's better to talk about money early!"
Zhong Qingyan smiled, took off a hairpin she was wearing from her head, her hair hung down like a waterfall, she took the hairpin in her hand, stretched it out to several women and said, "Oh, look at it, how is this hairpin?"
Women have a natural and irresistible penchant for these jewelry, so they hurriedly stepped forward one by one to take a look, but when they saw the hairpin in Zhong Qing's hand, it was surrounded by dark green jade, wrapped in precious tortoiseshell, exuding a faint fragrance, which was really unprecedented.
"Good...... What a hairpin!" several women couldn't help but praise.
"Okay, the hairpin in my baggage is better than this!" Zhong Qing raised her head proudly and said with a swear.
