255. Chapter 255 There are always shameless people
The so-called important things are gatherings of adults, and social occasions that require young ladies to attend, so that they can show that the father is kind and the son is filial, the wife is responsible for the family, and the legitimate daughters and concubines have fun together, but it is all for the sake of face.
For example, Mrs. Sima's 40th birthday will be in a few days, so she will definitely stay at home.
Miss Gan nodded and said with a smile: "I wish I could have asked for it."
Although the Gan family does not have as many shops as the Xue family in Jiazhou, it is still one of the top three large shops in Jiazhou, with shops in the six surrounding provinces.
If she wanted to do business, Xiao Xiao would naturally think of finding someone to cooperate with. After all, she did not have a large amount of capital to open a shop. At the beginning, she could only start a business without capital injection.
Gan Huilan and Xiao Xiao talked about Wen Pan, and talked about the cards and chess, and even talked about Boss Chang's bookstore, the alluring rouge and gouache, and the pros and cons of various jewelry shops on Central Street. They were all treasures.
Xiao Xiao listened carefully and greatly enriched the amount of information.
Everyone had a great time, many of them were enjoying themselves very much. In addition, because they were just here for a casual walk, their respective nuns did not follow, so they all played without any scruples.
Time flew by in the blink of an eye. While we were playing, a girl came in and announced: "Miss, there are many nuns outside, saying they are looking for their young lady."
When Xiao Xiao heard this, she hurriedly asked someone to wait on her first. She reminded the ladies here to prevent any of them from not paying attention and breaking the rules of the house again. Then it would be difficult to teach the nanny, which would inevitably lead to embarrassment.
Seeing that she was so considerate, everyone thanked her one after another, and sincerely invited Xiao Xiao to play at her future home, and then reluctantly followed their respective mothers.
As soon as they left, Xia Juan and the other girls started to clean up. Xia Juan said: "Check the items and put them back to their original places."
After the girls finished counting, they found that a pair of playing cards, a bottle of toilet water, a bottle of facial ointment, and a pair of checkers were missing.
There are also many gadgets, all of which are fun or for skin care.
"Hey, where did Miss's gilt bracelet go?" When Dong Zhu was cleaning up Xiao Xiao's dressing table, she discovered that a gilt bracelet was missing.
Speaking of which, Xiao Xiao is still young and has just received Feng Wuji's attention. She doesn't have any jewelry and her hair is not tied up, so she doesn't have any gold hairpins or anything like that. Most of them are hairbands, bracelets and the like. 255
This silver-gilt bracelet has an exquisite lotus pattern on it. Xiao Xiao liked it and often wore it. When I was playing today, I took it off because it was inconvenient and put it there.
Unexpectedly, it was taken away by someone.
"Who is this? Such a wicked person. He came here uninvited and took advantage of others." Xia Juan muttered angrily, and then gathered the girls to recall and see who took the things.
"I remembered that there was someone who looked unremarkable and was dressed in ordinary clothes. She came with everyone and looked very shabby. Maybe it was her." Ou Kui said first.
The other girls also remembered it and said they came with the cousin whom someone from the Feng family came to meet. She was from a prefecture or county near Jiazhou, and she had to find out her name.
It was even more difficult for the blind lady to find out, so she had to find someone for help.
"How about we go and find out?" Dongzhu asked.
Xiao Xiao waved her hand, "There's no need to be so nervous. Things are secondary, but we can't let others take the opportunity to cause trouble."
