The female shopkeeper responded softly, and soon brought a maid over to bring a lot of jewelry, and placed them one by one in front of Chu Lian.
This time the female shopkeeper bought some jewelry that was cheaper than the previous three pieces.
Chu Lian found out just as soon as she picked up a gold ring. She just glanced at it casually and knew that these jewelry were not as good as the three items just now. She gently put down the gold ring in her hand, and did not dismantle the female shopkeeper, but she did not look at the rest.
Getting up, Chu Lian came to the counter by herself, and several people looked at each other in dismay. Even the female shopkeeper didn't know what this ordinary-dressed Jinyi Xiangjun was thinking, until Chu Lian's soft voice sounded, the female shopkeeper returned. Excessive.
"Shopkeeper, show me this finger wrench."
The female shopkeeper walked to the high counter in three or two steps, looked in the direction Chu Lian pointed with her slender fingers, and was speechless for a moment.
After regaining consciousness, he immediately handed the exquisite wooden box containing the wrench to Chu Lian.
What Chu Lian was pointing at was a pair of Hetian Qingyu fingers, one was bigger, and the other was only a circle smaller, so it was clearly a pair.
Originally Hetian sapphire was a kind of top-quality jade, and it was extremely valuable no matter what it was made of, but now the Great Wu Dynasty had not yet worn finger pullers.
When Jin Shixuan got this piece of Hetian sapphire jade, he didn't even think about making finger rings. Unfortunately, due to flaws in the jade material, the pair of finger ring jade materials was finally created after the ingenious design of skilled craftsmen. It is also the largest. degree of use. It's a pity that there are too few nobles who bought finger pullers, so they have been stranded for a long time.
It's cheaper than today's Chu Lian.
The original text also specifically mentioned this pair of Hetian green jade finger rings, which were also bought by Chu Lian by chance, but they were not in Jinshixuan, and the jade finger rings worn by the man who was obviously too big were naturally worn by Xiao in the end. On Bojan's thumb.
Xiao Bojian was a civil servant, and it was precisely because of the sapphire finger in his hand that the jade finger became a status symbol for a while, and was sought after by people at that time.
Hetian Qingyu's fingers are warm and moist to the touch, the jade is fine and translucent, full of water. The smaller finger seems to be tailor-made for Chu Lian, and it fits on the thumb. The white fingers against the emerald green emerald are unbelievably beautiful.
The ladies from the British government next to me were also a little dumbfounded. They never thought that this kind of jewelry that only warriors would wear would look so good even on women's hands. If it can be matched with a riding outfit, the effect will definitely be Even better.
Of course Chu Lian was also very satisfied. She looked at the female shopkeeper and motioned her to introduce the pair of finger pullers with her eyes.
After the female shopkeeper was surprised, she also calmed down, and said honestly: "Ma'am, I don't dare to hide it, the ornaments in your hand are a pair of finger rings, and the material is excellent Hetian green jade, but the jade material I got was limited. That’s why this pair of ring fingers was made, and there are very few nobles who bought them, so there are only a few of them left, if Madam really wants to buy them, how about the little lady giving you three or two hundred silver?”
Chu Lian nodded after hearing this. As in the original text, this pair of finger rings is indeed much cheaper than other Hetian Qingyu jewelry. Jin Shixuan, the female shopkeeper who does business, is quite honest and did not ask for prices indiscriminately.
However, three hundred taels is not a small sum.
Chu Lian didn't say whether to buy it or not, but she didn't ask the shopkeeper to put away the pair of finger rings, but looked at some other jewelry.
Sister Fu followed Chu Lian, sneered from an angle that no one else could see, and thought to herself: Since she couldn't afford it, why would she ask these things? Could it be possible that someone will pay for her after delaying the time
Sister Yuan also gradually became anxious, "Sixth Sister has watched so much, but is it okay?"
Chu Lian turned to look at her, put down a green magnolia hairpin in his hand, and suddenly smiled when he saw her.
"Why, it seems that Bamei is more anxious than me."
Sister Fu didn't wait for Sister Yuan to retort angrily, and said with a meaningful smile: "Sixth sister, you are not in a hurry to go out today, and you didn't bring enough bank notes, right? That's okay, the few of us Don’t want those few jewelry.”
Sister Su was annoyed, "Eighth Sister, Ninth Sister! Please don't say a few words!"
When Sister Fu was speaking, she stared closely at Chu Lian's expression, and saw that although she tried her best to keep calm on the face, her almond eyes revealed a trace of panic, and she felt happy for a while.
Thinking in her heart, let's see how Chu Lian can save face this time!
The female shopkeeper behind the counter was silent and only glanced at Chu Lian. In fact, she didn't believe that Chu Lian, who was dressed like this, could really spend hundreds or even thousands of taels to buy these jewelry.
Chu Lian looked at Sister Su and comforted her softly, "Sister Fifth, don't worry, I think that jade bracelet is very good, it suits you very well."
After finishing speaking, he turned around and glanced at Sister Yuan and Sister Fu, the black eyes immediately exuded a different look, and the completely different eyes suddenly made Sister Yuan and Sister Fu stunned for a moment, speechless Come.
Now there is no embarrassment, forbearance and worry in Chu Lian's eyes, those shiny black eyes, with a smile and cunning, are as bright as stars in the dark night.
She turned her head and said to the dazed female shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, wrap up the three pieces of jewelry and the pair of jade finger rings chosen by the sisters just now, ask questions, and follow the shopkeeper to pay the bill."
Chu Lian also took a look at Jinshixuan's other jewelry. Although the workmanship is exquisite and the materials are high-quality, the styles are old and simple, and the style is not novel. It is better to draw the pattern and send it to Jinshixuan for a special master to make.
The female shopkeeper thought she couldn't afford to buy any of them, but she didn't expect her to be so generous at the moment, she actually bought all the jewelry she wanted and the three ladies'.
Several pieces of jewelry add up to six hundred taels of silver, which is a big deal.
The female shopkeeper laughed from ear to ear, "Since the madam is going to buy it, the little lady decides, and the fraction of the ten taels of silver will be erased, and the pair of jasper earrings that I promised to give as a gift still count."
Wen Yan Wenqing took out a six hundred taels of silver bill from her purse and handed it to the female shopkeeper. After the female shopkeeper checked the counter ticket, she wrapped the jewelry in a wooden box and handed it to Wenqing Wenlan.
Chu Lian smiled, her almond eyes turned into crescent moons, looking at the three people around her.
The faces of the three sisters in the British government were full of unbearable shock, but the shocks on the faces of the three were different. Sister Su was faintly worried, Sister Yuan was secretly delighted to take advantage of it, and Sister Fu The son is resentful and unwilling to succeed in the trickery.
Sister Fu said sourly: "It's really unusual for Sixth Sister to act after she got the title! It really taught my sister a lot of experience."
This time Chu Lian did not remain silent, she looked at Sister Fu with a smile, "Thank you Ninth Sister for your compliment."
One sentence made Sister Fu vomit to death, and the false expression on her face couldn't be controlled anymore, and she suddenly showed a trace of embarrassment.
Sister Yuan glanced vaguely at Wen Lan who was holding the jewelry box, wishing she could snatch the emerald Jinbuyao she fancy from her right now.
Only Sister Su followed Chu Lian, looking at her with worry in her eyes, fearing that she spent so much money just because of a moment of anger.
After buying the jewelry, Chu Lian didn't want to stay in Jinshixuan too much. The four sisters from the British government were sent to the door of Jinshixuan by the female shopkeeper.
Chu Lian stopped at the place where the carriage could be parked, turned around and picked out a brocade box from Wen Lan's hand and handed it to Sister Su behind her.
"Fifth sister, this is the jade bracelet you like, take it."
Sister Su refused to go back, shaking her head again and again, "Sixth Sister, this bracelet is too expensive, I can't take it, you should take it home and wear it for yourself!"
Sister Su really never thought of taking this jade bracelet from Chu Lian.
Chu Lian stared with a pair of almond eyes, and stuffed the jade bracelet into Sister Su's arms, "Sister Fifth, this jade bracelet is not suitable for me to wear, and it is useless if I take it back." After speaking, he raised his wrist and waved it in front of Sister Su. shaken.
Chu Lian's wrist is much slender than Sister Su's, so that jade bracelet is really not suitable for her to wear.
Seeing the two refusals, Sister Yuan stared wide-eyed, anxious in her heart, wishing she could reach out to take it for Sister Su, but also afraid that Sister Su would really reject the bracelet, which would affect the one that Chu Lian gave her. Jin Bu Yao. When Sister Su finally accepted the jade bracelet, she also heaved a sigh of relief, and then she stared blankly at Chu Lian.
Sister Su couldn't help it, feeling guilty and happy in her heart, Chu Lian's willingness to give her something showed that the relationship between them was not irretrievable, "Then thank you sixth sister. Thinking of Sixth Sister."
Chu Lian smiled at her, patted the back of Sister Su's hand, and then glanced at Sister Yuan and Sister Fu.
Sister Yuan was staring at her eagerly, while Sister Fu had kept a dark face ever since she was slapped in the face in Jinshixuan, she pursed her lips and stopped talking without pretending to be bothered.
Chu Lian rolled her eyes in her heart, and she still wanted to take advantage of her like this, but she was thinking too much of her.
Chu Lian withdrew his eyes, and his eyes fell on Sister Su's face again, and said with a soft expression: "Sister Fifth, it's getting late today, and I should go back, let's say goodbye here, I'll post another day, Please go to Jing'an Bo's mansion to enjoy the flowers."
Sister Su nodded with a smile, and the next moment Chu Lian turned around and walked towards her carriage, leaving only a slender figure of Sister Fu and the others.
Sister Yuan was stunned on the spot for a while, and she unconsciously stretched out her hand in the direction where Chu Lian left, as if to hold something back. After a while, Sister Yuan came back to her senses and couldn't help chasing after two steps.
"Sixth sister, wait!"
Chu Lian stopped and turned around, blinked her clear apricot eyes, and tilted her head in confusion, "What's the matter with Eighth Sister?"
Sister Yuan pursed her lips, her eyes were full of disbelief, she, she... She actually forgot about her golden step! How can this be! That golden step is her fancy! It's her!
Sister Yuan tried her best to suppress the unwillingness in her heart, squeezed out an ugly smile, and reminded: "Did Sixth Sister forget something?"
Chu Lian raised her head slightly, as if she was really thinking about it seriously. Under Sister Yuan's expectant eyes, Chu Lian smiled and met her eyes, and shook her head, "I have a good memory! I remember important things, Nothing is forgotten."
what!
Sister Yuan's eyes widened in an instant, and she squeezed her hands tightly in her cuffs. She said angrily, "Since Sixth Sister can't remember, then I will remind Sixth Sister, that golden step."
