Chapter 73 Jiang Peihuan doesn’t want
Liu Xiu was born in a merchant, and every time she walked into a store, she would habitually look at the items. At this point, she saw the white jade collar that Lin Mengyao had just put down.
The entire necklace is mainly made of gold, but the white jade inlaid on it is of very good quality.
"You've been used to seeing babies since you were a child. If you say good things, they should be good."
After finishing speaking, Xue Yan looked at the shopkeeper who was coming this way, "Shopkeeper, how much money is this circle?"
"Ma'am, you have a good eye. This white jade collar is a new product that just arrived in our store, and the price is 5,000 taels."
"Five thousand taels?"
Xue Yan was born as a general. Although she knew the goods of these jewels, she didn't know the market very well. When she heard the price quoted by the shopkeeper, she was a little surprised.
Then, she looked at Liu Xiu.
Facing Xue Yan's expression, Liu Xiu smiled and said, "Shopkeeper, although this white jade collar is of good quality, it is not worth five thousand taels. How about it? There are a lot of things to buy today, so you can get a discount."
"In this case, let's follow the price that Madam said."
"Mrs. Jiang, this circle is the first one my young lady has taken a fancy to."
At this time, a voice suddenly sounded, the person who spoke was Lin Mengyao's maid, Baojuan.
Hearing this, Xue Yan and Liu Xiu both looked at Lin Mengyao.
"Baojuan, don't be rude."
Lin Mengyao scolded her maid first, then looked at Xue Yan and said, "I'm really sorry."
Although Lin Mengyao said she was sorry, there was no apology in her eyes.
She has taken a fancy to this collar since she came in, but the price of five thousand taels is really a bit expensive for her.
But for four thousand five hundred taels, she can buy it.
Hearing this, Xue Yan frowned. Just when she was about to speak, her eldest daughter grabbed her sleeve.
Jiang Peihuan took a look at Lin Mengyao, and said softly, "Since Ms. Lin is the one who took her fancy first, then give it to Ms. Lin."
After finishing speaking, Jiang Peihuan looked at Xue Yan and Liu Xiu, "Mother, Third Aunt, let's look at other circles. I don't like this circle very much."
"Okay, since you don't like it, let's look at other things."
"Sister-in-law, let's go to the Linglong Pavilion next door."
At this time, Liu Xiu also said softly.
Xue Yan nodded and prepared to go outside.
But the shopkeeper behind him called out, "Madam, please wait a moment."
The shopkeeper glanced at the white jade necklace, and then said softly, "Ma'am, we still have a necklace in our shop, the quality is better than this white jade necklace, madam, would you like to see it?"
"Better character? Let's take a look."
"Madam, wait a moment."
After a while, the shopkeeper took out a wooden box, put the box on the table, and opened it carefully.
Seeing the contents in the box, Jiang Peihuan's eyes flashed with astonishment.
The collar is also made of gold, but blood-red blood jade is inlaid around the collar, and there is a whole piece of ruby on the bottom pendant.
Seeing this collar, Jiang Peihuan subconsciously looked at the ruby ring on his hand.
The colors match quite well.
"This circle is really good."
Liu Xiu is used to seeing good things, and when she saw this circle, her eyes showed a bit of surprise.
Xue Yan looked at the collar and thought it was very beautiful, but she still looked at Jiang Peihuan and asked softly, "Huan'er, do you like this collar?"
"Well, I kind of like it."
"If you like it, mother will buy it for you."
Hearing Xue Yan's words, Jiang Peihuan smiled a little, "Mother, you haven't asked the shopkeeper how much this circle is."
"No matter how much it costs, as long as you like it, mother will buy it for you."
"Shopkeeper, wrap it up."
"Yes, ma'am."
The shopkeeper's eyes were full of smiles. After wrapping the box, he looked at Xue Yan and said, "Madam, this necklace is more expensive than the white jade one. This necklace costs six thousand taels."
"good."
Nodding, Xue Yan took out a few bank notes and handed them to the shopkeeper.
After taking the things from the shopkeeper, Xue Yan looked at Jiang Peihuan, "Huan'er, do you have anything else that you fancy?"
"there is none left."
Hearing Xue Yan's words, Jiang Peihuan shook her head. Seeing her shaking her head, Xue Yan said with a smile, "It's okay, let's go to the Linglong Pavilion next door."
"good."
Xue Yan and his party nodded to Lin Mengyao, and left directly.
Looking at their leaving backs, Lin Mengyao tightly held onto her palm.
At this time, the shopkeeper walked up to her with a smile, "Miss Lin, this white jade collar, for you to wrap it up?"
Lin Mengyao really wanted to say that she didn't want it anymore.
This white jade collar was what she saw at first glance, but Jiang Peihuan didn't want it.
But meeting the shopkeeper's eyes, she finally suppressed a smile and nodded, "Then trouble the shopkeeper."
"Miss Lin, I will charge you four thousand and five for this circle, according to the price that Mrs. Jiang was okay with before."
"Thank you shopkeeper."
Lin Mengyao smiled and took the box from the shopkeeper. After coming out of Baibao Pavilion, the smile in Lin Mengyao's eyes could no longer hold back.
After getting into the carriage, she slapped Baojuan on the face with a backhand.
Five fingerprints immediately appeared on Baojuan's face, but Baojuan didn't even dare to cry out, she quickly knelt down, "Miss, it's all Baojuan's fault, calm down."
While speaking, Baojuan stretched out her hand and started to slap her face.
Lin Mengyao watched with cold eyes, and blood soon oozed from the corner of Baojuan's mouth.
But Lin Mengyao still didn't intend to stop. At this time, a voice came from outside, "Miss, King Qing has gone to the mansion, and the master told you to go back quickly."
"Quick, go home quickly."
Hearing this, Lin Mengyao's eyes showed a bit of surprise.
Looking at Baojuan kneeling aside, she said coldly, "Enough."
Throwing a bottle of medicine to Baojuan, she said softly, "If someone asks you, you know how to say it."
"Yes, the servant accidentally dropped it."
"This medicine is the best wound medicine, you can go back and apply the medicine yourself."
"Thank you, miss."
Baojuan picked up the medicine bottle in front of her, and quickly knelt down in a corner beside her.
Lin Fu.
"My lord, I made this pastry myself, please try it."
Xiao Junhao sat in the pavilion, looking at the woman in front of him, his eyes were full of sarcasm, but Lin Mengxin didn't see the sarcasm in the man's eyes.
She only saw the handsome face of the man.
Picking up a piece of pastry, she brought it to Xiao Junhao, almost to his mouth.
"Thank you, Miss San."
While speaking, Xiao Junhao took the pastry from Lin Mengxin's hand, but when he was about to put it in his mouth, the pastry was taken away, "My lord, this pastry is not easy to digest, you should not eat it."
