Lin Zhu and Qian Xuehui came to Qiaodiefang, the most famous silver building on the street. It was the first time for Lin Zhu to visit a jewelry store of this era. It was very novel. The jewelry in the store were all packed in flat and wide boxes.
, using red cloth as the base, whether it is silver or gold jewelry, it is very beautiful.
After explaining the purpose of his visit to the clerk, the clerk brought over the box containing the longevity lock and let Lin Zhu take a look first. Then he also brought over the bracelets and anklets worn by the children. Lin Zhu couldn't help but admire the exquisitely crafted jewelry as he looked at them.
The craftsmen of this era, although they did not have convenient tools,
But with his super skills, he can be so perfect. Lin Zhu remembers watching a program where the Miao people made headdresses according to traditional methods. Although the tools are simple, the silver jewelry worn by the Miao girls is so delicate and beautiful.
From this it seems that the ancients cannot be underestimated.
Lin Zhu and Qian Xuehui carefully selected and finally made their choice. They wanted the waiter to pay the bill and were about to leave. At this moment, someone stopped Lin Zhu. "Girl, our lady wants to treat you."
Come over and talk." A maid in pink clothes stood in front of Lin Zhu. "I don't think I know your lady. What's the matter with her?" Lin Zhu asked puzzledly.
"Our lady doesn't mean any harm. You'll know as soon as you leave." The maid in pink pointed to the screen behind the east side of the store. Although Lin Zhu was a little confused by this maid, she was very polite when speaking, but she didn't mean it.
It annoyed her, so she took Qian Xuehui there.
I followed the maid to the back of the screen, and saw a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl in green clothes sitting there. Her face was round and she looked very blessed. She had pretty features, but there were some small acne on her face.
Although she covered it up thickly with pink, it was still visible, and the pink
It's too white. But judging from her clothes, she should come from a very wealthy family. She is wearing a jade-colored emerald leaf moire brocade embroidered cotton robe, an emerald-green tangled flower-carved silk jacket, and a
Wearing a light pink satin fur cloak, she sat on a chair, looking like a lady.
"Miss, we have been invited." The maid in pink walked over and stood behind the young lady.
Lin Zhu was a little confused when he saw her. She didn't know this person. "I wonder if this lady asked me to come over. What's the matter? I don't seem to have met the lady." Lin Zhu stood not far away from her and asked.
.
"You don't seem to be from Song County." Miss Cuiyi looked at Lin Zhu and raised her hand to make a gesture, asking her to sit down. Lin Zhu was not polite and sat directly opposite her, "Well
.I came to the county to buy things." She pointed.
The box in Qian Xuehui's hand. "I would like to ask, where is your home? What do you do for a living?" Miss Cuiyi spoke very politely. Although the question she asked was not appropriate for someone meeting for the first time, she still
Emotions that make life less annoying.
"I don't know how to call you Miss, what's the reason for asking this?" Even though my background is not a secret, there is no need to tell her if I ask her.
"My young lady's surname is Dong." The maid in pink clothes answered instead. There was a slight hint of superiority in her voice.
"Hello, Miss Dong. My surname is Lin. I come from Baihe Town. My family is just farming." Lin Zhu didn't notice the difference in the maid's voice at all. She thought it was the rule of the boudoir lady that she couldn't say her name. As she spoke,
It was still a very normal tone, but in the ears of the maid, she felt a little unhappy, "My young lady is from the magistrate's house..." Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Miss Dong, "Shui Tao
.”
"I have no status, Miss Lin. Please forgive me." As an official lady, Miss Dong is very approachable and has no airs of condescension. Lin Zhu appreciates her style of interpretation. The concept of hierarchy in this era is still very strong.
Yes, it is rare for a young lady from the county magistrate's family to be willing to talk to her on an equal footing.
"It's okay, but I would also like to ask Miss Dong to forgive me for my clumsy eyesight, and please don't be offended if I offend you." Lin Zhu wondered in her heart, why is a lady from an official family looking for me? "Miss Lin doesn't look like an ordinary farmer from the countryside.
Girl." Miss Dong waved her hand
, expressing that she didn’t care about Lin Zhu’s behavior just now, “Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to afford the things from Qiaodiefang.” She pointed to the direction of the counter with a smile, “The gold and silver jewelry here are very good, many of them are
The styles coming from the capital are worth seeing."
"Haha, Miss Dong is ridiculous. I just bought a few gifts for my little nephew who is about to be born. I can't afford the rest at all." Lin Zhu laughed, a young lady who was raised in a boudoir with such eyes.
Li, do you think you are dressed like a rich person? Lin Zhu looked at the clothes on her body. She never liked clothes that were too gorgeous. Although there were a lot of brocade materials, she never asked Mother Chang to make them.
Clothes, according to her words, since
She was still young and still growing, so the clothes would become smaller after wearing them for a long time. It was a waste to use such good materials to make clothes. Chang’s mother had no choice but to use fine cotton to make clothes for her, just at the collar and cuffs.
give her
I embroidered some more patterns and gave her a little girl's cuteness and vitality. I was afraid she would be cold when I went out today, so I even asked her to wear a lavender-based cross-neck long coat embroidered with plum blossoms.
It's different in the countryside.
"Miss Lin, don't be too modest. I have no other intention in inviting you here. I just saw that the silk flowers on your hair were very beautiful, but I have never seen them in the county. I took the liberty to invite you here out of curiosity." Miss Dong.
said with a smile.
"Oh, this is it." Lin Zhu touched the silk flowers on her head. In fact, she didn't like to wear silk flowers on her hair on weekdays, but this morning Lin Zhu asked Chang's mother to try to braid a lot of little braids on her head.
, and then tie these braids into a double-flat temple style. If you don’t wear some decoration, your head will look bald and unattractive.
It looked good. So she chose a pink silk flower of Begonia flower to wear. These silk flowers were the home-made things given to her by Dr. Zhang. However, Lin Zhu didn’t understand. Chang’s mother thought they were just ordinary things, so she didn’t follow them.
Lin Zhu brought it up. But just because Lin Zhu didn't understand it didn't mean he didn't have a discerning eye. Obviously the county magistrate's daughter could see it.
Lin Zhu originally wanted to take it off and show it to Miss Dong, but her action was inappropriate and was stopped by Qian Xuehui and Miss Dong. "Girl, no." "Miss Lin, there is no need to take it off."
"Haha," Lin Zhu realized that he had scared them. "This was a gift from an elder. I don't know where he bought it, and I don't know if it's good or not." "Miss Lin is really a sweetheart, like this
I have seen handmade silk flowers in the capital, but ordinary people cannot buy them.
Even I have only seen others wearing it." Miss Dong's words were a bit self-deprecating, and her mood was a bit depressed. "Miss." The maid next to her called her. "I'm sorry, I'm a little lost." Miss Dong clenched her fist.
"If Miss Lin still has some, can you transfer a few to me?"
Lin Zhu was a little embarrassed about Miss Dong's request. Although she heard from her words that this kind of silk flower was rare and she wanted it very much. Lin Zhu was not reluctant to part with it. After all, she had given it to Ruyu and Youqing.
It's just that these were the best wishes of Dr. Zhang, and Lin Zhu felt it was inappropriate to sell them, and he failed to live up to Dr. Zhang's wishes.
"Don't worry, Miss Lin, I will give you a satisfactory price." Miss Dong looked a little anxious. Just as Lin Zhu was about to say something, two people suddenly walked in from outside the screen.
"Hey, sister is here." A sweet voice came over. Lin Zhu turned around and saw that it was a young lady about the same age as Miss Dong, wearing a bright red Ruyi-patterned flower gown and a
Moon white embroidered cloak, skin as smooth as
Jade has picturesque features, and although she is still young, it is obvious that she is a stunning beauty. "Sister, what do you want to buy?" Although she is beautiful, she speaks in a coquettish voice, which makes Lin Zhu very disgusted. "Could it be that she is beautiful?
My sister wants to buy something from a village girl?"
After hearing this, Lin Zhu was not only disgusted with her voice, but also didn't want to see her. Just when he wanted to talk to Miss Dong, an even more disturbing voice came from the side, "Hey, who are you? See you.
My lady is still not polite?" A maid in Tsing Yi walked up to Lin Zhu and pointed at her.
Lin Zhu looked at her and frowned.
"Sister, what good can this village girl do? She can't be a liar, right? Do you want her father to punish her? If my sister doesn't dare to say it to her father, I will tell her. But I have to suffer a loss due to my status.
." He looked like he was only thinking about his sister.
Lin Zhu was shocked that they were actually sisters, wondering where the genes of the Zhixian family came from. One was gentle and polite, while the other was coquettish and arrogant.
"Second sister, please remember your father's teachings when you go out, and don't make assumptions about things you don't know. Moreover, this girl's surname is Lin, so she must also know the rules when speaking." Miss Dong lectured her softly and slowly, then turned her head.
He said to Lin Zhu, "Miss Lin, I'm sorry, my second sister made a mistake. I will apologize to you on her behalf."
"Miss Dong is so polite, which makes me ashamed. Besides, I am a village girl, and what Miss Dong said is right." Lin Zhu smiled, but did not even look at the second Miss Dong, and just talked to Miss Dong.
As he spoke, "As for the matter that Miss Dong mentioned, I originally thought that it would not be a small thing for your favor, but I just didn't want to be regarded as a liar. We are destined to meet each other. If you want to facilitate it, send someone to go with me to pick it up."
Well, just treat it as a meeting gift and give it to Miss Dong."
"This is not good." Miss Dong felt that it was too sudden. Just now, she had an attitude of not wanting to sell, but why did she want to give it to her so quickly? Is it because of her status? It doesn't look like it, if it is because of her status
If it were, he would have sold it to her long ago, and there was no need to wait until the second sister became unruly... Suddenly Miss Dong thought about it. She never thought that this second sister, who had never been at odds with her, would bring such benefits to herself.
"It's okay, it's just a few silk flowers. Please don't find it too shabby, Ms. Dong." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my greatest support.
