The shopkeeper took out a cleverly designed begonia flower inlaid with gemstones. The gemstones were dotted on the stamens, making the begonia flower look very noble.
Next to it is a silk lantern-shaped hairpin made of pure gold. The shape is interesting, and even the pattern on the lantern is clearly visible, which is enough to show that the workmanship is exquisite and amazing.
There are two bracelets on a tray, one of which is a white jade bracelet inlaid with gold. The white jade is divided into four sections, and the golden brocade buckle covers it, making the white jade extremely elegant.
The other is a bracelet inlaid with gold wire and precious stones. It is wound with extremely fine gold wire and has complicated and gorgeous patterns. It is embellished with eight kinds of rare and precious stones, tourmaline, ruby, sapphire, pink jade...
It makes people unable to take their eyes away.
"Do you think you still like it, noble man?"
"I like it, I like it. The things in Zhenbaozhai are really extraordinary!" Bai Sihan couldn't care about anything else at the moment. She immediately stretched out her hand to put the gemstone and gold bracelet on her hand, looking from left to right, with satisfaction on her face.
"Mother, look at me wearing this bracelet. Is it beautiful?"
"Beautiful, beautiful, everything Han'er wears is beautiful."
Shen's answer cleared away her previous depression. Only something like this was worthy of her stunning appearance. She became more and more determined to marry into a high family, otherwise such glory and wealth would only be short-lived. She would never be able to do so.
tolerate!
"As long as Miss likes it, do you want to wrap it up and send it to your house?"
"There's no need to send it away, we'll just take it away and the shopkeeper will pay for it."
"yes."
Mrs. Shen didn't want the shopkeeper to send things to Bai Mansion. It would be terrible if someone in the middle did something tricky.
If Bai Siruo was able to obtain the things from Zhenbaozhai, it was because her mother was Princess Wen Yi who had a dowry of thousands of dollars. Now they could also buy such good things, all thanks to Bai Sanlang's past. For a moment, she felt that Qiao Xiu Niang
It's not all without benefits, at least you still have a decent jade pendant, right?
It was a total of six hundred taels, and Mrs. Shen did feel a little bit sad when she paid the money, just throwing away the money she had just received, but looking at her daughter's happy look, it was worth it no matter how heartbroken she was.
"Mother, let's go."
"Um."
"My dear, please go slowly and come back next time."
The shopkeeper and the waiter escorted them out of the door before walking in. The waiter glanced at the shopkeeper and asked curiously, "Does the shopkeeper know where these two are from?"
"She's just a vulgar woman who has been poor for a long time and suddenly got rich. I think it's just a one-time trip. There is no need to worry about it. Now the appearance that Miss Wei has chosen is the most important. That is our real big customer.
,Understand?"
"Hehe, the shopkeeper still has a sharp eye."
The shopkeeper smiled disdainfully, how could a true noble like these things? It is said that gold and stone are valuable and jade is priceless. Look at the ladies in Dongdu City, who has hairpins on their heads and don’t have low-key and noble jade on their hands?
For jewelry, only those who are eager to show off will choose gold, silver and precious stones.
Little did the Shen mother and daughter know that someone had seen through their true identity, so they returned home happily, but unexpectedly they ran into Bai Chaoke.
"Master came back early today, can we have a meal?"
"Aren't you injured? Why did you and Haner go out?"
As soon as Bai Chaoke came back, he heard from his servants that the mother and daughter had gone out. He was still wondering why. Then he saw Bai Sihan raising her wrist to reveal the bracelet, and looking at Bai Chaoke with a proud and complacent expression.
"Father, look, is this bracelet beautiful?"
"Is the bracelet a new one?"
"Well, my mother took me there. It's on the third floor of Zhenbaozhai. My father didn't see it. There are a lot of good things in there."
Her words were full of aftertaste. If possible, she would have bought everything on the third floor!
Bai Chaoke frowned. He knew very well how much Shen's property was. In order to smoothen his relationship with the court over the years, a lot of dowry had been given to him. The bracelet in front of her was probably not worth a hundred taels. She had never been able to get it.
Where did you get so much money?
The look in Mr. Shen's eyes was a little more probing and questioning.
Being swept away by his eyes, Shen's face felt a little uncomfortable. Some things must be revealed. Rather than being found out by her husband, it is better for her to take the initiative. Otherwise, she has seen this man's methods before, and she is sweating behind her back.
All came out.
"Han'er, you are tired today. Go back and rest. Mother is going to lie down. Let's talk again tomorrow."
After getting these good things, Bai Sihan naturally had to rush back to put them together with the things Princess Wen Yi sent last time. The trip to Dongdu City was worth more than a thousand taels of jewelry alone.
"In this case, the daughter will resign first."
Seeing Bai Sihan leaving happily, Bai Chaoke said nothing, and then looked back at Shen with a calm look in his eyes.
"Where does the money come from?"
Bai Chaoke didn't give Shen any time to think, and asked directly.
Shen's thoughts were completely inadequate in front of Bai Chaoke, and her cold aura frightened Shen into telling the truth on the spot.
After hearing this, Bai Chaoke was furious and swept the teacup on the table to the ground.
"Nonsense! How dare you!"
He stared at Ms. Shen with eyes that seemed to be cannibalistic. If Gu Nian hadn't been here and there were other Bai family members here, he would have been afraid to step forward and beat her to vent his anger.
"Master, what are you doing? Are you... are you going to teach me a lesson for that bitch and that traitor?"
Shen crouched his neck and moved forward, speaking forcefully, but most of his momentum was lost. After being suppressed by Bai Chaoke, he couldn't even speak well.
"You...don't forget what the master said...if you accept that traitor back, your life will be in danger! Not to mention the future of the master, it's just...whether he can survive.
It’s all a problem!”
Shen's words brought Bai Chaoke's thoughts back to many years ago.
Back then, he was just a dispensable concubine of the Bai family. By chance, he met Qiao Niang. The handsome young man and the gentle and beautiful Xiu Niang fell in love with each other and made a private marriage for life.
He thought that God would take pity on him and allow him, a poor man with a father and no mother, to finally live a happy life. Unexpectedly, before he could bring Qiao Niang home, his marriage to Mrs. Shen had already been decided by Mrs. Bai.
Down.
At that time, he had neither the love of his father nor the power around him, so how could he resist? He had no choice but to bite the bullet and marry Shen.
I thought about taking Niang Qiao as my concubine in a month. The two of them had a strong affection, so I think Niang Qiao would agree.
Unfortunately, he underestimated Mrs. Bai's ability after all. In less than half a month, she persuaded his father to let him work as an official in other places, thus ending his bright future in the Eastern Capital City.
Qiao Niang's belly is getting bigger and bigger. How can she follow him around the world?
After much thought, Bai Chaoke decided to let Qiao Niang give birth to the baby first in Dongdu City. After he went to work abroad to establish a foothold, he came to pick up their mother and son for a reunion.
