Chapter 109 Jade Pavilion
"I am also very curious about what kind of village and what kind of family can raise a daughter as good as Xia Xia."
Hearing Yuan Zhiqiu's words, Yu Banxia smiled and said welcome repeatedly.
After talking about the visit, Yu Banxia told Zhang Wanqing that she wanted to go out for a walk.
"You go ahead and go back directly after shopping. I will chat with Sister Zhiqiu for a while and then go back."
"That won't work. We have to have dinner here tonight."
"Xia Xia, don't listen to your mother. Come back after shopping. Have dinner before going back. Yue Yue and Lan Er should also go and accompany your sister Xia Xia for a shopping trip."
"Okay, mother." Miao Yue bowed, and Yuan Zhiqiu asked someone to bring the silver and banknotes over.
"If Sister Xia likes something, just buy it and give it to Xia Xia. Mother didn't know that your Aunt Zhang would bring Sister Xia here, and she didn't prepare a gift for them."
Miaoyue nodded and said she understood.
Yu Banxia heard this, but she didn't say no. As the saying goes, if there is give and take, the emotional bond will become deeper.
Since you have decided to treat the other person as your own, it would be bad to be too polite.
Zhang Wanqing also understood this truth. She smiled and said, "You are such a jerk. We are all family. Who would care about these things with you?"
"Sister, it's because we're family that I need to give you a gift for meeting you."
"Okay, okay, I'll do as you say." Zhang Wanqing held her hand and said happily.
Miaolan took Yu Banxia's hand and led her towards the gate.
"Don't pull Sister Xia." Miao Yue followed behind helplessly, constantly reminding her.
Yu Banxia's face was full of smiles. These two sisters were so funny.
"Let's go to the Jade Pavilion and see if Sister Xia Xia is about to reach the age of marriage. Let's go pick out a beautiful hairpin for her."
Miaolan made this suggestion to her sister, and Miaoyue thought it was a good idea and said yes repeatedly.
"Miss, are you going to Cuiyu Pavilion?" Zhang Zhenshan heard the conversation between the three people and asked.
Yu Banxia also wanted to go and take a look and bring some gifts back for her family.
"Go ahead."
The carriage drove towards Cuiyu Pavilion, which is the largest silver shop in Anping County.
As soon as the carriage arrived at the door, the waiter came over, took down the footrest and put it away first, pushed the door open, and Miaolan walked out of the carriage first.
The waiter recognized at a glance that this was the county magistrate's daughter, and his expression became even more respectful.
"Good afternoon, Miss Han." The waiter saluted Miaolan.
Miaolan waved her hand, got off the ground and looked inside the carriage. Miaoyue and Yu Banxia also walked out.
The waiter called her Miss Han again and secretly glanced at Yu Banxia. Since she could be with the county magistrate's daughter, her status must be high, so she should not be offended.
"Ladies, it's too sunny outside, please go into the shop first." The clerk stepped forward with great tact.
Miao Yue looked at Yu Banxia and said with a smile: "Sister Xia, please..."
"Okay, let's go." Yu Banxia responded. Miaolan took Yu Banxia's arm again, and the three of them walked into the store together.
Erniu followed behind the three people to prevent anyone from bumping into them.
"Miss Han, Miss Han, what brings you here?" The shopkeeper was a middle-aged woman, not often seen. Yu Banxia glanced at her twice.
Miao Yue nodded at her and said softly, "Shopkeeper Yang, please bring all the new products in the store over here!"
"Okay, Miss Han, I'll ask the waiter to get it for me right away." Yang Xuqin responded quickly and personally led the person to sit in the rest area nearby.
Then he arranged for the waiter to get the things. Yu Banxia looked around. The store was very big.
There are also many customers choosing jewelry, and business is very good.
Not long after, Yang Xuqin came over with a few waiters. Each waiter held a tray with exquisite jewelry on it.
This scene attracted many guests to look over here with envy or curiosity, and a well-dressed middle-aged woman frowned.
He grabbed a waiter and asked, "What's going on? Why do they just sit there and you bring the finest jewelry to them for them to choose from?"
"We are all guests. Are you trying to bully us?"
Seeing the woman so excited, the waiter said quickly, "Madam, please don't be so excited. If you can spend more than fifteen taels of silver in our store, you can sit over there and choose."
The middle-aged woman was stunned when she heard this. What the hell?
How much silver will it cost?
Fifty taels, is she crazy, or are they crazy?
Originally I thought that they were sitting there, having tea, snacks, and preserved fruits to eat, and the shopkeeper personally brought his staff to deliver beautiful jewelry to them, which was quite respectable.
"Haha, haha, I'm just a little curious. It's fine for me to choose by myself." Seeing the woman smiling awkwardly, the waiter did not continue to be aggressive.
The waiter smiled at the woman and took out a tray of jewelry: "Madam, if you need anything, just tell me."
"Okay, okay." The lady nodded quickly and pretended to choose.
He left the shop quickly.
Yu Banxia and the other two also heard what the woman said, but they were not affected.
"Three ladies, take a look and see if you like anything. This phoenix flower hairpin is new and there is only one of its kind."
Miaoyue picked it up and took a look. It was indeed very beautiful. She handed it to Yu Banxia and asked with a smile, "Does Sister Xia Xia like it?"
"It looks very nice." Yu Banxia was not pretentious. Miao Yue immediately handed the hairpin to Shopkeeper Yang with a smile.
"Shopkeeper Yang, please take this hairpin separately." Miaoyue handed the hairpin to Yang Xuqin.
Yang Xuqin nodded and asked the waiter to pack it.
Yu Banxia directly selected a set of headwear for each of the female members of her family, and chose two pairs of pure gold pearl flowers for Miaoyue and Miaolan respectively.
"Sister Xia, let me pay." Miaoyue hurriedly took the lead.
Yu Banxia stopped her and said, "I accept the phoenix flower hairpin. These are for my elders and relatives at home. You cannot pay for them."
"I am very persistent."
Hearing her say this, Miaoyue had no choice but to nod.
"Miss Han, that phoenix hairpin is fifteen taels of silver." Yang Xuqin bowed and then made an offer.
Miao Yue nodded, and Yang Xuqin looked at Yu Banxia again: "The ones selected by this lady are a total of 128 taels of silver."
Yu Banxia nodded and took out a silver note worth 150 taels.
After checking it, Yang Xuqin said there was no problem and gave her some change.
Yu Banxia took it and put it away. Miaoyue had also paid the money and handed the hairpin to Yu Banxia.
"Thank you, Sister Miaoyue. This is a gift for you." Yu Banxia handed the two pairs of pearl flowers to them.
Miao Yue had an expression that said "as expected", but she didn't refuse. She smiled and thanked him before taking it.
"Sister, do you want to go to the Liyuan to listen to opera?" Miaolan asked her with bright eyes.
Yu Banxia shook her head and said, "I don't like listening to opera. Let's find a teahouse to sit down and chat and listen to some storytelling."
"That's good. There's a nice teahouse nearby. The storyteller there is also very interesting."
Miaolan suggested, and Yu Banxia nodded in agreement.
