Chapter 126 First Shopping
There is a small river outside the window.
There are willow trees by the river.
Under the trees, a woman is beating clothes on a stone slab.
Further away, one eave is connected to another, lined up in a compact beauty.
Jiang Mianmian sat in front of the window on the second floor and saw the scenery outside the window.
Sure enough, if you sit a little higher, your vision will be different.
The shopkeeper took out a wooden tray with a white satin cloth on it, and then placed the jewelry on it one by one.
The white satin cloth will reflect light, which is quite like the light in a jewelry store, making the jewelry look brighter and more beautiful.
She just glanced at the jewelry for a few times, and then she turned her head to look out the window without much interest.
Yin Gu saw the little girl began to shake her legs slightly, not caring about the jewelry on the table, but looking out the window curiously.
She just liked the energy of the little girl.
Aunt Yin handed her some water and asked her to drink it.
Jiang Mianmian looked at the scenery and drank water comfortably, waiting for her mother and sister to buy things.
Fortunately, there was no dad's rocking car downstairs, otherwise she might have gone to rock it.
Qin Luoxia actually had no shopping experience, at least no experience in buying jewelry.
She remembered Aunt Yin's words, look more and talk less, and don't show your liking casually.
She understood this, only when buying things can you choose the goods.
In fact, it was the same as buying things before, just changing the things.
Jiang Yu was more excited.
Just when she was confronting Jiang Wan, she acted like a little phoenix who was high above everyone else. When she went upstairs, she almost didn't hold in her belly, and her little belly was sticking out.
Sitting down now, she was a little excited.
Jiang Wan must have been mad at her just now, probably.
In the past, Jiang Wan always acted so high and mighty, as if she didn't care about anything Jiang Wan did. Jiang Yu was always reflecting on whether she had done something wrong again.
Now that she thought about it, it was what her aunt said about not showing her emotions on her face.
But just now, she felt that Jiang Wan was very unhappy.
Jiang Yu was a little complacent, as if she had felt Jiang Wan's pulse a little bit, and she was happy to see that she was unhappy.
Her aunt was really amazing, she would go back and make some soup for her and be filial to her.
Jiang Wan felt happier when she was mad than when she was choosing jewelry.
She didn't know much about jewelry, and she had never bought any, so she didn't dare to touch them. She
was worried that she would be scammed if something went wrong.
Jiang Yu turned to her aunt and said, "Aunt, please help me pick one."
Aunt Yin was quite satisfied with Sister Yu's point. She didn't pretend to know something when she didn't, and she was very calm.
Madam Qin, apart from not having seen the world, was actually a very smart person. She could draw inferences from a little bit of guidance, and she was not self-righteous. She was very easy to teach.
Aunt Yin let the lady choose first.
Qin Luoxia picked a hairpin. It was very simple, just a silver hairpin with a thick and round head that could fix the hair. Qin Luoxia thought it could be used as a weapon when necessary. She pulled it out of her head, and moved it to her chest, neck, and head. She didn't know if she could poke it into her head, as the skull was a bit hard.
She would go back and sharpen the tip of the hairpin and try it on an animal's skull.
Aunt Yin nodded slightly. The things in this store were not very good.
Either it is too tacky, the style is from Beijing several years ago, and may have just spread here.
Or it is very crude.
The hairpin that Madam Qin picked is already a rare one among the pile.
When you don’t have it, simplicity is actually good.
Deliberately complicated and poor workmanship will make it inferior.
She asked the shopkeeper: "Can I order it? I just saw two hairpins on the counter downstairs. They are quite good." The shopkeeper
just heard Madam Wang downstairs greet him, and knew that the people in front of him were the wives of Lord Jiang, so he became more enthusiastic.
After all, Lord Jiang is now their current manager.
And with Lord Jiang here, their business is gradually picking up, and it is even better.
There is no more money to be paid one after another.
After calculating, he actually made more money. He even wanted to contact his old partner and do some business here.
"Yes, our shop accepts customization. If it's customized by Madam Jiang, we will make it as soon as possible. That hairpin was made with the pattern sent by Miss Wan herself. It's a style we've never seen before, but it's not difficult for us. We sent it to the capital to have a master craftsman make it. No matter how difficult it is, we can make it."
The shopkeeper hadn't said anything else. Miss Wan'er gave him a few new patterns in addition to the two customized hairpins, saying that she wanted to sell them to him.
The shopkeeper was reluctant to part with it. The daughter of a rich family had never made money, and the lion opened a big mouth. However, when he saw the effect of the hairpin, he was really amazed and couldn't let it go. He even felt that it would definitely be popular in the capital.
He gritted his teeth and decided to buy it out.
The shopkeeper thought that Miss Wan'er
was really quite capable. Yin Gu nodded and praised, "Miss Wan is really clever. She can even remember the popular styles in the capital. She's amazing."
The shopkeeper felt something was a little off.
"Show me that pair of earrings." Yin Gu only mentioned it briefly and didn't say much.
The eldest girl had thick black hair. She was beautiful even without a hairpin.
She had delicate ears. Although the pair of small pearl earrings were small, they were shiny and suitable for her.
She had fair skin and a round face, which went well with the pearls.
Yin Gu also found a pair of embroidered shoes in the little girl's room. There were also pearls on them. They were very different and didn't seem like something her family would buy.
She said it was sent by her brother’s friend. He sent many gifts, but one of them was a particularly good person. He hadn’t been heard from for a long time. She was worried that he might be dead.
Aunt Yin: …
You wouldn’t give embroidered shoes as a gift. And it sounds like they are from a wealthy family. There must be something wrong.
But the eldest girl didn’t understand.
Let’s talk about it later.
Aunt Yin felt that she might lose a handful of hair when she went back to comb her hair.
Too much to worry about.
Qin Luoxia chose a hairpin, pearl earrings, and a little tiger made of silver for Mianmian.
Jiang Mianmian held it in her hand and played with it, and was very satisfied.
She couldn't choose things to wear on her head anyway. She was always worried that her hair was too heavy to wear anything because she didn't have enough hair.
She didn't want to wear anything on her ears, neck, or hands. The economic conditions in ancient times were poor. She was worried that she would be sold if she wore it. She was also a little worried that there would be lead in the jewelry. So she just took a hand-held piece, played with it, and collected it.
It looked cute.
She swung it happily, feeling that she had made the most profit.
Her little tiger could be laid flat, and there was a hole on the back for a rope.
When she was tired of playing, she could hang it on her wrist.
Aunt Yin also brought a few pictures to the shopkeeper on the spot and communicated with him on what to do.
Jiang Mianmian was playing with the little brain tiger, leaning against the window, looking downstairs, and saw a group of people from a distance, led by the eldest brother and another young man. The eldest brother was very majestic, riding a horse and holding a sword, looking straight ahead.
Jiang Yu also saw the eldest brother.
Then he waved and shouted, "Brother."
The young man riding a horse downstairs looked up, and the man next to him also looked up.
It was Jiang Feng and General Zi.
General Zi came to find Jiang Feng to ask for someone to fight.
General Zi looked up at the girl and smiled cleanly, with round eyes filled with joy.
There was a little girl next to him, waving her chubby hands and calling sweetly, "Brother."
"Wait a moment, General Gan, I'll be gone for a while." Jiang Feng clasped his fists with General Zi.
He jumped off his horse and entered the shop, and went upstairs directly without seeing Jiang Wan.
Jiang Wan was the focus wherever she went. She never thought that one day she would be called an idler and completely ignored.
The man waiting on horseback at the door did not look at her, but kept looking upstairs.
Jiang Wan felt as if she was suppressed by Jiang Yu everywhere, and she was unlucky when she met her. She
didn't expect that Jiang Yu didn't become a maid, didn't lose her memory, and was still as arrogant as she saw in her dream, which was infuriating.
Jiang Feng picked up Mianmian as soon as he went upstairs.
After greeting her mother, Aunt Yin, she said to Jiang Xiaoyu, "What are you so happy about? You're smiling so hard that your teeth are showing."
Jiang Yu took out the earrings and said, "My aunt picked them for me. I like them."
"Silly." Jiang Feng pinched her elder sister's face.
Jiang Mianmian was worried about being pinched, so she raised her little head and said, "Brother, my little head, I'll give it to you."
Sure enough, her brother said he didn't want it, but he still rubbed her head vigorously.
After greeting, Jiang Feng said he had something to do and ran away again, and generously told the boss to put it on his account.
Jiang Mianmian was so surprised that she almost vomited bubbles. Her brother actually had a secret stash, which was amazing.
After choosing the jewelry, the family prepared to go back to the village.
They still took a horse carriage.
In the carriage, Jiang Yu stopped pretending and happily hung the pearls here and there, so happy that she couldn't sit still.
Qin Luoxia's hairpin was already in her hair, revealing a round silver ball, very low-key.
Jiang Mianmian held the little tiger in her arms and sat in her mother's arms, feeling the swaying of the carriage, humming unconsciously, without a tune, without a sentence.
Soft and ups and downs.
Yin Gu sat upright, listening to the little girl's unconscious humming, she didn't say a word, just listened quietly, even Yu Jie'er and Qin Luoxia in the carriage were quiet.
Jiang Mianmian didn't notice, and continued to play and hum.
Aunt Yin thought it was a worthy inheritance. The little girl was so young, but she had never heard the humming tone before, and no one had ever sung it before. It sounded like random singing, but it had a special meaning.
Her fingers tapped her knees lightly, and she actually memorized it sentence by sentence.
Jiang Mianmian was tired from playing, and she fell asleep with her face in her mother's arms.
Her little head swayed with the swaying of the carriage, and was supported by her mother's big hand. She slept very soundly, and the flesh on her cheek was squeezed out.
