Chapter 100 Come Together

"Sister Weimang, do you think this looks good? I heard that it is a gem from Qionglai, but elder brother said it is not suitable for me and won't let me buy it. But sister Weimang is just right for her age."

Women, big or small, love sparkling gemstones.

Since the last time Cheng Mo stayed in Lu's mansion drunk, they seem to have resumed their relationship when they returned to Nanyang County. Cheng Mo didn't come out very often, but Xiao Jin often had her brought to Lu's mansion to find Lu Weimang and others.

Today, when Lu Weimang was taking a rest, the two met and naturally made an appointment to go shopping.

"My elder brother is often busy with business and doesn't take care of me. The older brothers and sisters of my uncle's family don't pay much attention to me, so I can only play with sister Weimang. My elder brother has made some money over the years, and I will I bought this gem as a gift for Sister Weimang, okay, I heard elder brother said that Sister Weimang has become an official and should be busy with official business, but recently because of me, Sister Weimang’s time was wasted."

As Xiao Jin said, his big almond eyes drooped, and he seemed a little embarrassed.Seeing Xiao Jin's pitiful look, Lu Weimang took Xiao Jin's hand, squatted down to be level with her, and stared at Xiao Jin in front of him, "If you want to come and play with me, just come here, and you can talk to me directly if you need anything. Friends can still help each other, not to mention that when you were young, I treated you as a younger sister."

Xiaojin's watery almond eyes flashed, and she seemed very excited, "I knew Sister Weimang would not dislike me. The older brothers and sisters of the uncle's family also said that Sister Weimang has become an official, and she will not have too much relationship with her old friends. dating, and I heard that the person who is engaged to Sister Weimang is the legendary Huohou, if one day, Sister Weimang and Huohou can go with me to meet the brothers and sisters of the uncle’s family, it would be great, let them know, Weimang Sister Mang is not the kind of snobby person they say!"

Lu Weimang listened and shook his head, "Xiao Jin, everyone in this world has a mouth, if you take everyone's words to heart, you will be unhappy. Sister Weimang hopes that you can live a simpler and happier life, do you know?"

Xiao Jin nodded blankly, "Xiao Jin knows, we ignore those annoying guys."

Lu Weimang patted Xiao Jin's head, stood up, and said to shopkeeper Yu who was standing and waiting, "Is there any red treasure suitable for children, help me wrap it up."

Shopkeeper Yu of Zhucui Pavilion smiled all over his face at this time, "Master Lu, you are our old customer of Zhucui Pavilion, I have prepared the best for you a long time ago, just wait here, I will go and get the red wine at the bottom of the box. Bring it up for you."

Shopkeeper Yu said, calling for his servants to come and serve him, and he went to the warehouse to pick up the goods himself.

"Sister Weimang, this shopkeeper is really snobbish. I came here earlier and said I wanted to see the best red treasures, and what he showed me was the set on the table. I didn't expect that when sister Weimang showed up, he said that Ku There are better bottoms in the box.”

The child spoke crisply and innocently, but it made the waiter's forehead sweat.

"Miss, you misunderstood. The quality of this set of red treasures is really hard to find in the market. You may not be able to find such quality if you go out of Zhucui Pavilion. It's just that Mr. Lu prefers red treasures, and recently The business route from Kyoto to Qionglai that is underway has also benefited our Zhucui Pavilion a lot, so the shopkeeper specially prepared one or two sets of red treasures, just in case Mr. Lu needs it anytime soon."

"I didn't say anything, why are you so nervous? You're sweating, wipe it off quickly. Sister Weimang, did I scare others by saying it casually?"

Xiaojin anxiously took out the handkerchief and was about to hand it to the guy, then looked at Lu Weimang with innocent almond eyes and said.

Lu Weimang smiled, "You go down first, I've been here a few times, so I don't need to wait on you."

When Lu Weimang said that, the guy finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Then go down and see how the shopkeeper is doing."

Lu Weimang looked at Xiao Jin in front of him, "I don't know if it was a good thing when your elder brother Cheng Mo took you back to Cheng's house."

Xiaojin can't allow others to question his elder brother, not even Lu Weimang, "Sister Weimang, my elder brother has not been easy these years. But although there are many people in the Cheng family, fortunately, the Cheng family has some roots. Uncle is in Beijing. If you are an official in the Central Committee, you can rely on your elder brother to do business."

Lu Weimang nodded, "Just as long as you think it's worth it."

After a while, the shopkeeper came into the private room with two jewelry boxes in person, probably because he knew the reason why the guy went out, so seeing that there were only two people in the private room, Lu Weimang and Xiao Jin, he didn't ask any more questions, and directly introduced them with a smile on his face. "Look at the red treasure I specially left for you. Although at first glance it looks similar to the material used in the set on the table. But when the top-level red treasure reaches a certain level, the thicker the color, the rarer it will be. Look at this The luster of the two sets of rubies seems to be spiritual. Rubies of this level are called living gems in the local area. Therefore, our owner does not use this to make jewelry, but only preserves the original stones for you to have suitable opportunities in the future Reuse."

Lu Weimang picked up one, the mysterious fluorescence on it was really extraordinary.

But the shopkeeper is considered a bright pearl. Although she loves jewelry, she has not reached the point of being obsessed with it.If this fluorescent jewelry is in the hands of someone who really loves it, it must be cherished like life.But Lu Weimang just loves it as a gem.

"Your boss is interested, help me wrap it up. How much are these two gems?"

The shopkeeper waved his hands again and again, "I received it from Qionglai. It didn't cost much, but it cost some travel expenses. I will treat it as our Zhucui Pavilion's filial piety to you. You have opened up the business route from the capital to Qionglai, and you have already done it for our merchants in the capital." I have saved a lot of money on the road, how can I accept your money?"

After hearing this, Xiao Jin's eyes sparkled, and he looked at Lu Weimang opposite, as if he had reacquainted with the "sister Weimang" in his memory.

Lu Weimang just looked at the shopkeeper in front of him, smiled and said nothing.

In the end, the shopkeeper couldn't bear it anymore, and quoted a price, "Mr. Lu is an official, I offended you."

Lu Weimang took out the banknote from his purse, Xiaojin quickly stopped him, "Sister Weimang, didn't you say that Xiaojin bought it for sister Weimang?"

Lu Weimang didn't say much, just handed the silver ticket to shopkeeper Yu, "Wrap up that set of red jewellery, too."

"Sister Weimang bought it as a gift for Xiaojin."

Seeing the dark and calm eyes of Sister Weimang, Xiao Jin consciously stopped giving way, but took the box of jewelry.

Lu Weimang went downstairs with two rare red treasures in his arms, and went shopping with Xiaojin.

"Sister Weimang, I originally agreed that I would invite my elder sister to go shopping, but ended up costing my elder sister a lot of money. I'm afraid my elder brother will blame me when he comes back and finds out."

Lu Weimang just smiled, "Okay, I know your elder brother has earned money, and elder sister has also earned a lot. There is still money to buy you a box of jewelry."

Only then did Xiaojin get excited, clapping his hands and laughing, "That's right, although my elder brother and I came to Kyoto not long ago, I have heard of elder sister's name of "Little God of Wealth"!"

The two were wandering aimlessly, but Xiao Jin suddenly exclaimed, "Sister, is that Huo Hou? He seems to be in the Drunken Immortal Pavilion over there!"

Lu Weimang followed Xiaojin's hand and looked over. On the second floor of Zuixian Pavilion, facing the window, half of Huo Jing's figure was hidden by the paper window. The sound of strands of bamboo came out through the half-opened windows, and there were also sounds of informal people laughing, drinking and having fun.

Lu Weimang had never seen Huo Jing at this kind of banquet before, and stared at it for a while, wondering if Huo Jing at this time was still as cold and self-sufficient as before, and was still socializing like going along with the flow.

"Miss Lu?"

Lin Chen's voice suddenly came, waking up two people upstairs and downstairs.

Lu Weimang looked back at the second floor, and looked at Lin Chen in front of him.

Huo Jing on the second floor heard the sound and turned his head. Ding Yi behind him walked down from the window on the second floor, and found Lu Weimang not far from the entrance of Zuixian Tower.

"Young master, there."

Huo Jing turned his head to look at Lu Weimang, just in time to meet Lu Weimang's gaze when he looked up, "Miss Lu, don't get me wrong. Today, the young master has something to investigate, so he came to the Zuixianlou with other people. In the past, we passed by here without even looking at it."

Lin Chen's stammering voice of explanation came.

Lu Weimang also withdrew his gaze, looked at Lin Chen who was so anxious that his head was sweating, and said coolly, "I just went shopping today, what are you in a hurry for?"

Lin Chen didn't want to be in a hurry either. She was afraid that Ms. Lu would misunderstand the young master, so he stammered and explained, "There are a few old friends from the Habayashi army. The young master invited them to drink, but who would have thought they chose to drink drunk?" Xianlou. Don't worry, our young master has always kept himself clean, but he doesn't like these happy girls here."

Lu Weimang thought it was interesting at first, but when he went shopping, he ran into Huo Jing, but after hearing Lin Chen's explanation, he found it boring, "You don't have to tell me this, you have no obligation to report to me. You should be busy, I have something else to do."

As he said that, he wanted to take Xiao Jin away, but a voice made Xiao Jin stop, and Lu Weimang also stopped, "Of course he has an obligation to report to you, you are his future young mistress."

Huo Jing strode out from the Zuixian Tower and walked to Lu Weimang's side, "Xiu Mu today, I originally wanted to go to the Lu Mansion to look for you in the afternoon, but I didn't expect to see you here."

"I've seen Huo Hou."

Lu Weimang didn't say a word, and Xiaojin saluted cleverly, breaking the silence.

Huo Jing glanced at Xiao Jin and knew that she was Cheng Mo's younger sister, "Yeah." With a voice, his attitude couldn't be more cold, but Xiao Jin didn't care, and pulled Lu Weimang's arm, "Sister Weimang, look at Huo Hou looking at you."

Lu Weimang looked at the sky, "I wanted to go shopping for a while today, but now I'm not interested. Xiao Jin, did Cheng Mo say when he will pick you up?"

Xiao Jin looked timidly at Huo Jing aside, and said in a low voice, "Brother said that if today goes well, we can finish the work in the near future."

"That's right, let's go back to the mansion, and we will go shopping again when we have a chance."

Lu Weimang pulled Xiaojin back to the house, and Huo Jing followed behind Lu Weimang without saying a word.

Xiao Jin's big eyes were a little uneasy, and he whispered, "Sister, is it okay to ignore Huo Hou? My brother said that men like to save face when they are outside."

Although Xiao Jin's words were light, but there were people with sensitive facial features, Lu Weimang was still expressionless, and Huo Jing's expression was exactly the same as Lu Weimang's, even with a bit of coldness.The corner of Lin Chen's mouth twitched, wishing he could replace Ding Yi who was still socializing in Zuixian Tower, "He can't handle this situation."
