Chapter 1226 Everything is ready except the east wind
Neither of them dared to decide on the jewelry, so Shao Yunduan accompanied Qiao Xuan to buy it.
A complete set of red, blue, sapphire and jadeite headpiece cost eighty thousand silver coins.
By the way, he also bought several other pieces of jewelry with a total value of more than 5,000 taels.
Otherwise, how can we say that Jiangnan is rich? There are all kinds of brocade, silk, satin, silk clothes, and all kinds of exquisite headwear and jewelry. As long as you have money, you don’t have to worry about having no place to spend it!
Even someone like Qiao Xuan, who has never been very interested in or fascinated by these things, couldn't help but buy them.
Everything is ready except the east wind.
The next day, Lixia and Liqiu dressed up Qiao Xuan with a complete set of clothes. She was covered in jewels and looked so noble that both of them were stunned.
"Fifth Madam is so beautiful! She is so aura--yes, full of aura!"
"Yes, it looks so majestic!"
"Yeah, very impressive!"
There was no Western dressing mirror in the inn, so Qiao Xuan could only see her makeup and upper body through a bronze mirror. No matter how bright the bronze mirror was, the effect was not very good.
Even so, Qiao Xuan still felt a little embarrassed and unaccustomed to the sight of herself dressed in bright brocade and with pearls and jade on her head.
This is so eye-catching and dazzling!
Lixia also said: "Fifth Madam looks really good dressed like this, really, I will dress you like this often in the future!"
Qiao Xuan almost stumbled, and said with a smile: "Then you guys should save some money, it's not convenient to dress like this!"
Only suitable for being worshipped.
The master and his servant all laughed.
After everything was ready, Uncle Qing, Sun Bai and others led a dozen servants to pick her up.
As an official appointed by the imperial court, Shao Yunduan cannot openly participate in business affairs, so he naturally cannot accompany them today.
He originally wanted to see her off, but someone from the prefectural government office came early in the morning to ask him to go over, so he had to go first. Before leaving, he reminded Qiao Xuan to be careful, which made Qiao Xuan a little nervous.
But now seeing Uncle Qing, Sun Bai and others, Qiao Xuan felt that she must be very safe!
Four luxurious carriages went to the Shiwan Mulberry Fields outside the city.
One hundred thousand acres of mulberry fields is not a small number, so farms were naturally built next to them, where farmers and tenants lived, and there were several managers.
Uncle Qing had secretly come here before to take over from his trusted stewards and village heads. This time it was just an act, a handover.
Qiao Xuan and her group entered the farm in a proud and mighty manner, immediately attracting countless people's attention.
"Hey, what's going on?"
"Who are these people?"
"Yes, how strange!"
"Could it be that the Third Young Master has returned?"
"Ah! Maybe it's true!"
“.”
The crowd was talking about it, and some of the brave ones followed to watch the fun. Some people also followed with their eyes flickering, hiding their thoughts.
When Uncle Qing got off the fourth carriage, the people who were watching nearby all opened their eyes wide and gasped.
"Uncle Qing!"
"It's really Uncle Qing!"
"So it must be the Third Young Master who has returned?"
"Of course!"
Who doesn't know that Uncle Qing was the former Madam's right-hand man? After Madam passed away, Uncle Qing and his wife loyally served the Third Young Master.
It has been several years since we last saw the Third Young Master, and both Madam Zheng and the Third Young Master were very amiable people. Normally, when the Third Young Master appeared, everyone would surely be delighted and cheer. However, everyone just exchanged slightly complicated glances, and no one dared to show any joy or happiness.
