Not long after Shuojin waited, Su Ningqing came out of the room. She was dressed like a maid. Although she looked a bit Jiangnan style, she still looked like a maid.
"Isn't this just to make traveling more convenient? What's wrong, you dare to dislike me." Su Ningqing grabbed Shuojin's ears and said angrily.
"No, no, no, I don't dare." Shuo Jin's desire to live overflowed again. "I just think that the girl is so handsome, wouldn't it be a pity to be a maid? How about dressing up as my wife?"
With Shuojin here, how could he wrong Su Ningqing? Even if Shuojin himself was the servant of the young lady, he could not let Su Ningqing be the maid of the young master.
Of course, Shuojin still thinks that Madam is better, so naturally she has to fight for her.
"Okay, I really have no good intentions."
As he spoke, Su Ningqing's hand tightened a little harder, twisting Shuojin's ears hard, and Shuojin instinctively let out a few screams like a slaughtering pig.
"Sister, sister, can you pretend to be my sister?"
"Okay." Su Ningqing reluctantly agreed. After all, she didn't want to look too big when she was out.
Shuo Jin smiled proudly. In this way, he could be considered a big advantage.
So, the two of them talked and laughed along the way, and soon arrived in Jiangnan.
Jiangnan was still a hazy scene with mist and rain, but when the two of them visited their old place again, they had a different mood.
"This place was once a hidden stake for them. That day Bei Mingchen sent me to assassinate the owner of Huangzhuang who was in charge of this place. I don't know if this Ling'an flower-style ornament is still available now."
When they walked to a jewelry store, Suningqing stopped subconsciously and said melancholy.
"Let's go, go in and take a look, see if there is anything suitable for you."
With that said, Shuojin pulled Su Ningqing and walked in. At this moment, Shuojin looked like a child who had never seen the world. He looked around, full of curiosity. He saw a good-looking one,
Just try it on Sun Ningqing. After all the trouble, Suningqing was a little embarrassed.
Soon, they successfully attracted the attention of the waiter.
"Hey, sir, I'm choosing jewelry for my wife. Then come to our shop."
"Yes." Shuojin accepted the waiter's words without hesitation, and his goal was finally achieved.
Just as Su Ningqing wanted to defend herself, Shuojin held her hand tightly and forced her words back.
Good guy, one of them is going to hit you on the nose. This guy must have planned it all the time.
"Do you have any recommendations? Bring them all up. Bring up everything you put at the bottom of the box." Shuo Jin became more and more interested.
Soon, the waiter brought up all the most valuable things in their store, and Shuo Jinzi looked at them carefully.
"This peony flower is so eye-catching."
"This lotus flower is a bit big."
"This mandarin duck looks a bit earthy."
"ugly."
"Tacky."
“The color scheme is not nice.”
Shuojin spent a long time choosing, and those who didn't know better thought that Shuojin was just here to cause trouble. After a long time, Shuojin found a hairpin that suited Su Ningqing.
"I just like this hairpin. It's made of high quality, simple yet elegant. Suningqing, last time you rejected the hairpin I gave you, you can't refuse me this time, right?" Shuojin gestured on Suningqing's forehead.
Follow the path.
"Sir, you are really discerning. We only have one of these Ling'an flower styles in our store."
"Okay, how much does it cost? I bought it."
When the waiter said this, Shuojin became even happier. He looked at Su Ningqing intently and answered the waiter.
"Five taels of gold."
"Isn't this too expensive?" Su Ningqing couldn't help but marveled.
To be honest, Su Ningqing had never received such an expensive gift, and Bei Mingchen had never been so generous before.
"It doesn't matter, they are just some small pieces, you can just play with them. I will definitely make them better-looking, more exquisite, and more suitable for you when the time comes."
After hearing that, both Su Ningqing and the waiter in the shop widened their eyes. Is this? A small piece? Playing with it? You know, some families don't even have so many betrothal gifts for marrying a wife! And Shuo Jin actually threatened to do it
Come out with something better!
They looked at Shuo Jin in astonishment. Su Ningqing was surprised. She didn't expect Shuo Jin to be so unwilling to restrain herself. Although maybe Ayi really has this ability, she should keep a low profile. The waiter was surprised, because the things in their store were all over the place.
Jiangnan is one of the best, and this Ling'an flower-style hairpin was carved by their most skilled craftsmen for a long time. I didn't expect it to be so worthless in the eyes of this kid.
If it were just a rich young man who showed off his wealth, they would have seen many such people, but they had never seen someone like Shuo Jin who talked nonsense casually and claimed that he could carve more exquisite things.
"Sir, please don't lie. The carving process of this Ling'an flower is very complicated. The reason why there is only one hairpin is because the carving craftsman needs a lot of thought to make it."
The waiter explained seriously, and gave Shuo Jin a step down. What if the little girl really started to care about her? As a man, wouldn't it be embarrassing to lose face?
"It's okay, just ignore him, he just talks too much." Su Ningqing hurriedly smoothed things over.
"Who said it? I can make more exquisite ones. If you don't believe me, come out and try." Shuo Jin was not convinced and continued to show off.
"Hey, young master, you can't say this nonsense."
"Why, are you bragging?"
It was over, these two people were probably at odds, so Su Ningqing quietly took a step back, not bothering to talk to them.
"Okay, Master, our craftsmen still have something to do. If Master is really sincere, why not make an appointment?"
"I can come to your appointment within three days."
"It won't take that long, just tomorrow."
"It's a deal." Shuojin readily agreed.
After going out, Su Ningqing kept pouting and looking very unhappy.
"Hey, what are you doing here? Are you really here for tourism? You have to do business first."
After agreeing to investigate the matter, Shuojin actually made a bet with someone just for the sake of quick talk.
"I promised to take you to play, how could I break my promise? Anyway, we can solve it tomorrow, it'll be fine."
Shuo Jin said lightly, just play casually and have fun. Su Ningqing was about to say something more, but Shuo Jin pushed her back.
"Let's go and have a look over there."
They played around on the first day, and although they had a little quarrel, they had a great time.
The next day they arrived as promised, went to the shop again, and met Craftsman Xie who was astonished to be a heavenly being.
Craftsman Xie said he was the most powerful craftsman in the shop, but he didn't look very old, maybe forty years old at most.
"You're the only one who dares to say such arrogant words."
Craftsman Xie glanced at Shuo Jin relentlessly, who did he think he was? He was so loud, but he didn't expect that he was a little kid with no hair at all.
"Juniors are not talented. If there is any offense, I hope my seniors will forgive me." When the person he wanted to see was invited, Shuo Jin naturally had to be more polite.
"Tell me, do you want to compare with ten?"
"Senior, just ask the question." Shuo Jin said respectfully.
"The art of carving is all about sophistication. How about we find some small pieces and carve on them, like Ling'an flowers, and see who can carve smaller, more numerous, beautiful and lifelike flowers?"
"Okay." Shuojin agreed readily.
"The time is one stick of incense, and the game begins."
The waiter and Suning Qing served as referees at the same time. They lit a stick of incense beside them and announced the start of the game.
The senior was always concentrating on carving, while Shuojin always gave people a feeling of being absent-minded. While he was carving, he looked at the distant scenery and occasionally hummed a ditty or something.
Senior Mr.
An incense burns quickly. According to Shuojin's request, Su Ningqing secretly did some tricks on the incense to make the incense more fragrant and burn faster.
"time up."
Witnessed by everyone present, the game ended.
Craftsman Xie looked at his work again at the last moment, filled out a small handwriting, then smiled with satisfaction and presented the hairpin. Shuojin just admired it briefly, with a narcissistic expression on his face.
Then he also submitted his work.
There are many Ling'an flowers on the hairpins carved by Senior Xie, and each one is lifelike. The larger ones are as big as peanuts, and the smaller ones are even smaller than sesame seeds.
"Wow, wonderful, it's really beautiful."
Sun Ningqing was not stingy with her words at all. Shuo Jin glanced at her and rolled his eyes disdainfully, showing a slight displeasure. He was very dissatisfied with Su Ningqing's behavior of turning her elbows outward.
Then, everyone began to appreciate the hairpins carved by Shuo Jin. Not only were there many Ling'an flowers he carved, but he also carved a feeling of clusters of flowers, which sometimes gave people a feeling of reality and fantasy. Even the flowers and flowers
Shuojin handles the blocking relationship between them just right, giving people a three-dimensional feeling. Some Ling'an flowers seem to be right in front of you, while others seem to be behind mountains and peaks.
Only then did Craftsman Xie understand that Shuo Jin looked into the distance and looked at the scenery to imagine the overlapping relationship.
If Shuojin only carved half of the flowers due to the obstruction, then the number of flowers he carved was far greater than that of Senior Xie, or even twice that of Senior Xie.
"this!"
The waiter in the shop was also very shocked when he saw it. He had never seen such exquisite jewelry after opening the shop for so long. However, he still had some compassion and did not want to turn his elbows outward. Seeing this, Senior Xie walked up
He went over and gently patted the waiter on the shoulder.
"It was Xie who lost. He is really a formidable person."
