The woman's face was wet, but it couldn't hide the heroic spirit that emanated from her.
Her face is angular, with prominent cheekbones and obvious jaw angles. Her brow bones are very three-dimensional and her nose is also very high. She should have a heroic look, but her fox eyes give her a different kind of charm.
It gave people a strong contrast... of a domineering female president acting like a spoiled child to me. How could Xiao Ge, who was only a junior at the beginning of the school, stand this? He was so scared that he turned his face away.
"Strange, am I that scary?"
The young lady took out a small mirror from somewhere and looked at herself in the mirror. However, from the smile in her eyes and eyebrows, it was obvious that she was proud of her own charm.
"My name is Ge Jianming... You can call me Xiao Ge or Xiao Ming."
"Xiao Ge... Xiao Ge Ge? Little brother? Then I will call you Xiao Ge!"
The young lady was very satisfied with Xiao Ge's address and introduced herself: "My name is Yan Zijun, you can call me Zijun...sister!" Yan Zijun took a long time to say the last two words "sister".
"ah?"
Xiao Ge was just about to ask if calling her "Zijun" was too intimate, but when he heard the word "sister", he realized that he was being too sentimental again, and his face turned red again.
"You seem very disappointed... I noticed that you blush very easily!"
Sister Zijun reached out and pinched Xiaoge's face: "Don't you have any female friends?"
"I, I have a girlfriend!" Xiao Ge said quickly.
"What... you have a girlfriend!" Sister Zijun sighed, "Looking at how attentive you were to me, I thought you were a pure boy, but I didn't expect you were just looking at the bowl and thinking about the pot."
...How could I!
Xiao Ge also felt a little ashamed. Although he was a man with a girlfriend, he couldn't help but look over at the beautiful sister when he saw her. This was really immoral.
What made Xiao Ge even more tormented was that a strong sense of guilt actually had a hint of excitement, which made him suffer between physiological desires and rational principles. Ah, it was so tormenting, really so tormenting!
When she heard that Xiao Ge was a married man, Sister Zijun became conservative in her words. She turned her head and looked at the street scene outside through the window of the carriage.
"Um..." Xiao Ge couldn't help asking, "Sister Zijun, just now, did you want to..."
"What are you thinking about? Do you want to jump into the river and commit suicide?"
Yan Zijun turned around and handed the hairpin to Xiao Ge with a smile, "Just now my hairpin was not inserted firmly and fell into the water. I like this hairpin very much, so I jumped into the water to retrieve it."
Xiao Ge took the hairpin and looked at it. The head of this golden hairpin was a butterfly carved out of jade. Its pair of golden hollow wings looked real. As the carriage swayed slightly, the wings fluttered, like a real butterfly.
"Do you like it? I'm giving it to you. Give it to your girlfriend!" Yan Zijun said generously.
"Ah? This is very expensive!"
"It's okay, just consider it as a thank you for saving me!"
"No, no, it looks very expensive, I can't take it! Besides... I didn't save you, I was just being sentimental."
Xiao Ge returned it quickly. He remembered the hats and hair crowns he saw when he traveled through the gate of time and space. The expensive ones cost hundreds or thousands of dollars, so he guessed that this one must not be cheap either.
"Really?"
Yan Zijun took the hollow butterfly hairpin in his hand, blinked his eyes, and said meaningfully: "This hairpin is made of gold and jade. It has 16 grams of gold and a piece of Hetian jade. If you give it to your girlfriend, she will love you to death."
Xiao Ge was shocked. It turned out to be made of gold. He couldn't help asking:
"Can I ask how much?"
"It's not expensive... only 38,000. It's not too late for you to regret it!"
38,000...only?
Xiao Ge was stunned. Even if it was made of gold, he didn't know that a hairpin would cost 38,000 yuan. "A dozen grams of gold shouldn't be that expensive, right? Did you get ripped off?"
"No, the price is very fair. Don't just look at the gold. Gold is not worth much."
"..."Xiao Ge.
Is this what I deserve to hear... What do you mean gold is worthless?
Yan Zijun explained: "The current gold price is about 140 yuan per gram. It is just a foil on this hairpin. The price of top-grade Hetian jade is 20,000 yuan per gram. This is the most expensive part of this hairpin. However, the leftover jade materials used to make the hairpin are much cheaper, but the cost of this hairpin should be around 18,000 yuan."
"Then you spent 38,000!?"
Yan Zijun asked in return: “Why should the price be equal to the material cost? Is the hard work of the craftsmen worthless?
"Gold and jade are easy to come by, but famous craftsmen are hard to find. This kind of craftsmanship is much more valuable than gold and jade. It's not a loss, it's a good deal, and I made a profit."
Xiao Ge saw another side of his new acquaintance, Sister Zijun.
...This woman is unreasonable.
…
The carriage did not take the two to the time-space gate at the city gate, but to the largest market town in Tang City... a place that looked like ancient times everywhere, but in fact gave Xiao Ge the feeling of a large-scale shopping mall for antiques!
Everything is sold here, of course, they are limited to things that only appear in ancient times.
First of all, there are all kinds of clothing. You can buy clothing from any dynasty, including Qin, Han, Wei, Jin, Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties. There are even special clothing from Persia and the Arab Empire... Xiao Ge couldn't help but take a few more glances at a Persian dancer.
In addition, there are other kinds of goods, such as modern cosmetics and perfumes pretending to be ancient ones, various fans, jewelry, masks, clay sculptures, embroidery...
