As soon as the jewelry box was opened, a moist light flashed inside. Immediately afterwards, the wives and ladies onlookers gasped.
This is a set of round and smooth white pearl head face. Consists of tiara, necklace, bracelet, earrings and ring.
These noble ladies and noble ladies have seen pearl jewelry a lot, but this is the first time they have seen this elegant and dazzling headgear in front of them.
The pearls used were not exquisite, but the pattern of the jewelry surprised everyone.
Among them, the pearl necklace is the most eye-catching, with a thin silver chain at the top, and the white pearls on both sides are separated by small golden flowers made of gold, and there are two intertwined nasturtium flowers near the bottom pendant pattern.
A golden pearl the size of a little finger is inlaid in the center of the pattern. The color is smooth. Against the backdrop of gold, not only does it not lose its brilliance, but it is even more lustrous, exuding a sense of luxury.
In fact, this whole set of pearl jewelry, this golden pearl is the biggest highlight. It is precisely because of the golden pearl that the white pearl next to it is more white and beautiful.
Everyone was dumbfounded, where had they seen such a novel design of pearl jewelry, even the internal construction supervisor in the palace couldn't get it out!
For a moment, these noble ladies were so illuminated by the luster of pearls that they forgot to speak.
Zou's complacent face turned dark instantly when she saw the opened jewelry box. Even if she had the best concentration, she couldn't hold back the anger in her chest at this moment.
Whether it is a noble lady or a noble lady, these people are already well-clothed and well-fed, so they are naturally most interested in jewelry, head, face and clothing. A century-old ginseng might make them wonder, but a rare set of jewelry and headgear can make them excited and crazy.
Mrs. Jing'an didn't look at the jewelry box at first, but when she realized that the expressions of the ladies around her were not right, she turned her head to look beside her.
Even she was taken aback.
Quickly blamed: "Sanlang's daughter-in-law, you child, why did you give such an expensive gift!"
There are very few women who don't like clothes and accessories. Everyone in the world loves beautiful things, even Mrs. Jing Anbo who is seriously ill is not immune.
She wouldn't blame Chu Lian even if the gifts she presented were mediocre, but if the gifts she presented were amazing, she would of course be even more delighted.
This time, Mrs. Jing'an felt that her love for this little daughter-in-law was not in vain, and Chu Lian was a good child who knew how to repay.
Being praised by her mother-in-law in public, Chu Lian did not say a lot of good things like Zou Shi to win more love.
She stood up and gave a junior salute to Mrs. Jing'an, and then explained with a smile: "Mother, don't get me wrong, this set of jewelry is not as expensive as you think. The pearls used in the jewelry can be bought at Jinshixuan , but the pattern of this jewelry was drawn by the daughter-in-law herself, and Jin Shixuan's master was invited to make it."
Chu Lian did not spend much money, the two sets of pearl hair and a few bracelets did not cost five hundred taels in total. Not only that, the shopkeeper of Jinshixuan also gave her a lot of trinkets.
The shopkeeper of Jinshixuan still wants to keep such novel jewelry patterns for research!
Mrs. Jing'an heard Chu Lian's words, and her heart softened even more. Her eyes were doting and helpless, "You child, you are too sincere."
And the ladies are not ignorant women and children, because new patterns are rare, I am afraid that Jin Shixuan will make jewelry for this Lord Jinyi at a low price.
They were greedy, but if they wanted something like this, they probably couldn't get it for a thousand taels in Jinshixuan.
Hearing this, everyone was even more envious.
One of the ladies laughed and said, "That's the way it is, but it's even more rare for Mr. Jinyi Township to paint a new pattern for his wife. Besides, pearls are not precious stones, gold and silver. Wearing them is the most nourishing thing for people." , I heard that if you wear it for a long time, it will also have the effect of calming your mind and beautifying your face!"
Mrs. Jing'an was delighted by what this lady said, and she looked at Chu Lian even more gently.
And Zou Shi, who had been ignored by everyone, almost gnawed her silver teeth, and she became more and more unwilling.
Xu Shi kept complaining in his heart, but when arranging the banquet later, he made many mistakes and made several jokes.
In the end, Mrs. He couldn't see it, and ordered Madam Liu to help her, and then successfully held today's birthday banquet.
When the guests dispersed and only the Jing'anbo family was left, in front of the whole family, the big house was left behind by Mrs. He and Mrs. Jing'an.
Chu Lian took the maids and mothers back to Songtao Garden.
On the way back to Songtao Garden, Fuyan couldn't help complaining beside Chu Lian.
"Third grandma, what the eldest grandma did too much today, you said, did the old lady keep the eldest grandma to teach her a lesson?"
Chu Lian glanced back at Fu Yan, "What the grandma left the eldest sister-in-law to do has nothing to do with our third room, we just do our own thing."
She looked calm, obviously dissatisfied with Fu Yan's gossip, and Fu Yan also knew that the third grandma was angry, so she immediately bowed her head and shut up.
It's okay for Fuyan to be so talkative in the three-bedroom courtyard, but if it spreads outside, then others will accuse her of lax governance.
Moreover, misfortune comes from the mouth, especially the big maid beside her, it is not a good thing to talk too much.
In fact, she more or less guessed why Mrs. He and her mother-in-law Mrs. Jing'an kept their big house at the same time.
Originally, this incident should have happened a long time ago, but it was only because she intervened in the kitchen fire and rescued sister-in-law Zou, that incident has been delayed all the time. I thought that if Zou was doing well, Dafang would not develop into That level, but who knows, some things will not happen without intervention.
Freezing a foot does not happen in a day, and the hidden dangers of the big house are not caused suddenly in a day.
Chu Lian sighed, the matter has developed to this level, it is no longer something that she can just intervene to solve.
At this time, Dalang He Changqi came out from Madam Jing'an's main courtyard, but this time it was no longer their husband and wife, followed by a girl with her head down and her face flushed.
This girl is none other than Miaozhen, the big maid who has been serving Mrs. Jing'an all the year round.
Oh, Miaozhen is no longer Madam Jing'an's maid, but Dalang He Changqi's roommate.
This is a matter that was decided by Mrs. He himself, and Mrs. He also ordered that He Dalang and Miaozhen should consummate their marriage tonight.
He Changqi's face was cold and hard. He followed Jing Anbo's appearance, with a square face, tall and strong, and dark skin. Such a serious face made it difficult for people to approach.
Zou's face was pale behind He Changqi. Halfway, she wanted to grab her husband's sleeve, but she stretched out her hand a few times, but she couldn't save face. Finally, when they returned to the courtyard of the big house, the husband and wife didn't see each other. Say a word.
Nanny Liu, who was beside Mrs. He, followed behind the couple, looked at the couple coldly, narrowed their eyes slightly, and did not say a word.
When they arrived at the Flower Hall of Dafang, Mrs. Zou didn't plead in front of He Changqi in a soft voice, but kept his face pale, and He Changqi, who pursed his lips slightly, felt empty and disappointed.
Even Nanny Liu, who was not far behind the couple, shook her head in secret. She had to say that Mrs. Zou had really failed as a wife. She didn't bow her head in front of the loyalty of the husband and wife, but just blindly arrogant and domineering. , What benefits can be gained in the end.
Originally, Nanny Liu didn't say a word along the way because she wanted to give Dalang and his wife a chance. This was also secretly ordered by Mrs. He himself, but it's a pity that Mrs. Zou didn't take it.
When they arrived at the flower hall in the courtyard of the big house, the husband and wife were silent and shivering coldly. He Changqi was already a relatively rigid person, so how could he soften his body to coax his wife
In the end, Nanny Liu had no choice but to step forward.
"Mrs. Shizi, it's getting late. You've been busy for a day today. You should go to rest early. The old slave will help arrange for Shizi." Although Madam Liu spoke politely, there was a hint of innocence in her words. A strong one.
Mrs. Zou has been holding back her stomach for a long time, and now Madam Liu's words are like the fuse that ignites the powder keg. With her mother-in-law Mrs. Jing'an, she could force herself to suppress herself, but now she couldn't bear it in front of an old servant.
I don't know where the strength came from, Mrs. Zou stood up suddenly, and pushed Nanny Liu hard, "You old slave, what kind of onion are you, when is it your turn to take care of our house?" !"
Madam Liu would never have thought that the normally dignified Mrs. Shizi would suddenly lose her temper and act like a shameless shrew. Pushed by her like this, he fell to the ground with his buttocks, and his buttocks fell firmly.
Nanny Liu is not young anymore, how could she fall like this, and immediately collapsed on the ground with a "****" and couldn't get up.
Mrs. Zou was so ignorant of the importance of his hand, and when she saw Liu mama's painful expression, she realized that she was broken. For a moment, I was stunned, at a loss, not knowing what to do.
He Changqi's eyes widened, and when he realized he wanted to help Liu Nanny, Liu Nanny had already fallen to the ground.
He stepped over in two steps, "Mommy, what's wrong with you?"
He Changqi was already angry with Zou Shi, but now seeing her push down the old nanny who was in charge of his grandmother, he was even more furious.
He glared his eyes angrily, and yelled at Zou Shi: "Zou Shi! Look at what you have done! Calling you a shrew is really taking advantage of you!"
Zou was frightened at first, but now she was yelled at by her husband like this, and she immediately shook her face, "He Changqi, who are you calling a shrew!"
"I am talking about you!"
"Okay, He Changqi, you heartless, scumbag! How dare you scold me like that!"
How could Mrs. Zou have ever been insulted like this, and this person is also the pillow person who has been hand in hand with her for nearly ten years.
Her face was pale with anger, her chest heaved, and with a flick of her sleeve, she knocked all the teapots and cups on the table to the ground.
"Clatter!" The sound of a piece of porcelain falling to the ground.
She didn't think this was enough, so she finally picked up a cup that hadn't been knocked off the table and threw it at He Changqi. It hit He Changqi's forehead straight, and in the next second, dark red blood flowed down He Changqi's forehead, staining half of his face red.
