Chapter 107
Zhen Baozhu and Xie Ruyu followed Wen Rulang all the way to the Zhen family's tailor shop.

Zhen Baozhu understood it, thinking that this was the meeting place that Zhen Dazhi and Wen Rulang discussed at the beginning.

As for why Zhen Dazhi put Wen Rulang by her side, the purpose is now clearly revealed.

Zhen Dazhi wanted to coax her back so that he could take care of Auntie.

However, does she look so coaxable?

As for Wen Rulang, naturally he still had a little selfishness, and wanted to use A Niang's relationship with her to make friends with noble people.

Knowing the opponent's purpose, Baozhu was not afraid at all.

Wen Rulang wanted to make friends with noble people, so she was so considerate, so of course she would help her.

It's just that noble people are so easy to make friends with?
Zhen Baozhu didn't waste time on Wen Rulang, but took Xie Ruyu to the restaurant to have a big meal, and when he got home, Wen Rulang also came back.

"Cousin." Wen Rulang greeted Baozhu very enthusiastically when he saw Baozhu came back, "Look at this golden hairpin I prepared for Miss Lu, is it good?"

The gold hairpin is golden yellow in color, very dazzling, and Wen Rulang bought it with great determination.

The business of the Zhen family is not doing well at the moment, and my uncle only wants her to coax Zhen Baozhu back, and he is always a bit perfunctory to her extra requests.

Even the money to buy this golden hairpin was something she managed to get.

It's not in vain to please the eldest daughter of the palace.

Zhen Baozhu only took one look, then shook her head again and again and said: "What kind of noble status is the eldest daughter of the royal family? People like Sister Wan are used to all kinds of noble and gorgeous things, but they like to be arty."

"A gift like yours can't be taken out in public. People will only say it's tacky."

"Ah?" Wen Rulang never thought that the gift he thought he was sincere would not be appreciated by people.

"Is it good to buy jade hairpins?" Wen Rulang said again: "Although jade hairpins are elegant, they are not as valuable as gold hairpins, and the palace will think that you are perfunctory to them."

"That's why we choose gifts that are both expensive and elegant."

Naturally, expensive and elegant gifts are not limited to the price of gold hairpins.

Wen Rulang was a little confused by the orb, and his background limited his horizons. In Wen Rulang's eyes, the most valuable thing was gold, but gold was not elegant.

"Then what gift did my cousin prepare for Miss Lu?" Wen Rulang asked.

Baozhu pointed to the small box beside her and said, "A box of pearls."

Pearls are also very valuable things, let alone a box of pearls, it almost dazzles Wen Rulang's eyes.

The little girl especially loved pearls.

"This box of pearls must cost a lot of money." Wen Rulang sighed from the bottom of his heart.

Zhen Baozhu nodded, "This is my third uncle's private money for a year."

Wen Rulang stuttered looking at these pearls, "Then shall I also give Miss Lu a box of pearls?"

Baozhu nodded and said, "It's okay, even if you don't give pearls, you should give gifts of the same value, so as to show your sincerity in wanting to make friends with Sister Wan."

"The little girls from rich and noble families have sharp eyes. Whether you are sincere or perfunctory, they will see it at a glance."

"Also, sister Wan and brother Qi Ye are cousins, and they have a very good relationship."

"If sister Wan doesn't like someone, she will tell brother Qi Ye!"

"Really?" Wen Rulang was stupefied for a moment, thinking that that gentle and jade-like young master would hate her, she panicked for no reason.

"Then I'll give Miss Lu a box of pearls too."

"Bao Zhu, you also know that I've been kicked out by the Zhen family, and I'm really in short supply. Can you lend me some?"

Baozhu opened her big innocent eyes and said in surprise, "Then what did you use to buy your golden hairpin?"

"me."

Wen Rulang racked his brains to think of an excuse, and was also afraid that Baozhu would not take her away because he doubted her, "Those were all my jewelry from the past, and I was always reluctant to part with them, but now I want to not embarrass my cousin, so I sold them all for a new one. I picked up a gold hairpin."

Baozhu nodded, "That's right, but I don't have any money, so I can't lend it to you, or you should not go, so that you don't have to worry about preparing gifts."

She was very reasonable and gave Wen Rulang an idea.

"No!" Wen Rulang said hastily, realizing that his tone was a little businesslike, he hastily added: "I must accompany and protect my cousin, how about this, I'll think of another way, I must gather a box of pearls, Never embarrass my cousin."

Baozhu nodded, "Cousin, hurry up and prepare, sister Wan's wedding ceremony will be in three days."

Wen Rulang nodded resolutely.

There was no other way, this time she went directly to Zhen's mansion to ask Zhen Dazhi for money.

"Uncle, in order to win my trust in Baozhu, please give me a box of pearls. After all, if I coax Baozhu back in the future, you will not only get a box of pearls, but also the support of the entire Xie family!"

A box of pearls was of course no problem to Zhen Dazhi in the past. After all, business was booming at that time, and he was able to marry the daughter of Xie Hou's family, who was ten miles red.

But now Xie Chunxiao has left.

The Zhen family's business plummeted even more. In order to revitalize the business, he invested all the money he could use in it.

I only left behind the daily expenses of the family.

But what Wen Rulang said was indeed reasonable, and he was reluctant to let the child not be caught by the wolf.

Zhen Dazhi became cruel, and withdrew 500 taels of silver from the cashier.

However, he was afraid that Wen Rulang would keep it for himself, so he asked someone to buy the pearls and hand them over to Wen Rulang.

Wen Rulang looked at these pearls, and said with some disgust: "The quality of these pearls is far inferior to that of my cousin's box."

"Are there any good things in the Xie family in the capital." Zhen Dazhi sneered, "If it is really the same pearl as in Baozhu's hand, I might not be able to buy it even if I spend all my money."

Wen Rulang carried a box of pearls to Xie's mansion, this time Zhen Baozhu didn't criticize any more, and said, "It's okay to make do with it."

"However, those jewelry that my cousin used to have are quite valuable."

Wen Rulang was taken aback by this question, and smiled guiltyly.

Fortunately, Baozhu didn't get to the bottom of it.

Soon, it was the day of Lu Qiwan and Yanli.

Xie Chunxiao has a good relationship with the concubine, and Lu Qiwan's ceremony, as an elder, she will naturally have to pass.

Xie Chunxiao led Zhen Baozhu and Zhen Zhuzhu, and Wen Rulang who followed, to Jiangling Palace.

After seeing the ceremony with the princess, sister Zhen Baozhu went back to look for Lu Qiwan.

Because they came early and there were only two or three people in the room, Lu Qiwan saw Zhen Baozhu at a glance and yelled for her to come over.

There are many sisters in the Wangfu, but few sisters who are close to each other.

Lu Qiwan somewhat dislikes her mother's cousin's unruly waywardness.

The cousin of the grandmother's natal family is gentle and virtuous, but she always speaks with puns and ulterior motives, so she can't be close to each other.

Only Zhen Baozhu is innocent, with sincere eyes, and Lu Qiwan likes to talk to Zhen Baozhu very much.

Zhen Baozhu came over, greeted Lu Qiwan, and handed a box of pearls to the nanny beside Lu Qiwan.

"A beauty deserves a pearl. In my eyes, Sister Wan is the brightest pearl today!"

Lu Qiwan smiled brightly, "You girl, you are used to being sweet."

They chatted and laughed, but didn't mention Wen Rulang at all.

Wen Rulang became anxious all of a sudden, and also took his present and went forward to recommend himself: "Miss, I am Baozhu's cousin, and I came here today to congratulate you on your gift."
