Coming back to his senses, he glanced at the back of Zhizhi's head for a moment and asked,
"Is that the pearl hairpin you're wearing from the Jade Pavilion?"
The jewelry from Cuiyu Pavilion has always been popular among the ladies in the capital, and the prices are not cheap. Last night, He Xuan went there and picked for a long time, but couldn't tell the difference.
I just bought a few pearl hairpins and earrings, among which there was a butterfly pearl hairpin, which was carefully made by the best craftsmen and inlaid with Western gems and gold threads.
He spent over a hundred taels on a few pieces of jewelry.
Hearing this, Zhizhi subconsciously stroked the back of her head. Today, she was not wearing any makeup as usual, and her plain face contrasted with the silver butterfly pearl hairpin behind her head.
Her wrist was white, and He Xuan felt it dart in his eyes, and the maid in front of him timidly shook her head.
"No, this was given to me by my brother."
However, it was handed over to her brother by her future husband and sent to her.
The two have already made an engagement.
We will get married in March next spring.
It’s almost the first month of the lunar year, and there are only two months left.
He Xuan took a few more glances.
By the time Zhizhi finished serving him the dishes, He Xuan had almost finished eating.
He stood up and went out. When he was about to leave, he inexplicably turned his feet and took out an inconspicuous earring from a luxuriously decorated jewelry box and gave it to Zhizhi.
A pair of silver earrings are finely crafted and carved with floating cloud patterns, which are actually very beautiful.
But He Xuan picked it out without hesitation.
This was a gift from the Cuiyu Pavilion. It was made of silver and didn't match the box full of golden jewelry.
"It suits you very well." He Xuan said.
Zhizhi took it in a daze.
"Thank you, my Lord."
After He Xuan left, Bai'er looked at her with envy.
When the other servants heard this, they all expressed their envy of Zhizhi.
But there was no jealousy.
Because they all knew that Zhizhi's family had arranged a marriage for her, after their envy, they gave Zhizhi their sincere blessings.
After the incident of the maid climbing onto the bed, the servants of Xuanhe Hall temporarily became united and their relationship became much more harmonious.
Zhizhi thanked them one by one and put the earrings into her jewelry.
…
He Xuan left the Rongguo Marquis Mansion.
When he was about to get on the carriage, he called his servant Hui Mo and ordered him to take him to the residence of the Minister of Personnel as soon as possible.
Chen Qin's maid will be waiting for him there.
The servant responded skillfully and took advantage of the fact that no one was around to quickly run to the back door of the Shangshu Mansion at the end of the next alley.
These alleys in the capital are inhabited by nobles and the Minister of Personnel is not far from the Mansion of the Marquis of Rongguo.
Soon, a maid in green clothes came out. After the two of them talked, the maid hurried back to Chunhuayuan.
