Yusui Chang'an

Chapter 54 Picking Jewelry

Bai Yiran coaxed Lin Jinyan softly and told her several times not to mention the royal family in the dream again.

Bai Yiran didn't let her go until Lin Jinyan gave her repeated assurances and mentioned that the master had given her homework and was going back home.

After leaving the General's Mansion, Lin Jinyan told Lin Shun to go to Xingyue Pavilion in Yongfu Lane in the south of the city and said that he wanted to buy some jewelry and return it to his home to give away.

After Lin Shun complied, the carriage swayed toward Yongfu Lane.

Lin Jinyan lifted a corner of the side curtain and looked at the bustling market atmosphere outside. On the main street not far from Yongfu Lane, Lin Jinyan saw an elegant two-story teahouse. The three characters "Biye Hou" were written on the plaque above the door. Ruo Jinglong is also elegant. There is a wooden sign with the word "tea" written on both sides hanging on the side, rotating slightly with the breeze.

Lin Jinyan looked at it a few more times, then lowered the curtains until the carriage passed the teahouse. After a while, the carriage stopped, and Lin Shun said loudly: "Miss, we're here."

Gu Momo opened the curtain and got out of the carriage, helping Lin Jinyan down. After standing firm, Lin Jinyan looked around and said to Lin Shun:

"It's not good for the carriage to be blocked at the entrance of the alley. Just walk two steps ahead to the corner and stop there. You can all wait there for Gu Momo to accompany me in."

Lin Shun saw that the Xingyue Pavilion shop was full of female relatives, so he came down, took a few followers, and drove the carriage to an open area not far ahead to wait.

Lin Jinyan took Gu Momo into the Xingyue Pavilion, and a graceful and graceful woman in plain clothes greeted her with a smile:
"Madam, please come in."

Gu Momo smiled and said: "I'm just a Momo, this is my young lady."

The woman looked surprised: "Looking at your temperament, you look like a matron in charge of the house, so you lost sight of me. Don't be surprised. Please come in. My name is Yu Niang, and I am the shopkeeper of Xingyue Pavilion. What do you want? Just tell me."

Yu Niang said with a sincere face, coaxing Gu Momo to smile uncontrollably.

Lin Jinyan went in and took a look around, but didn't find anything particularly amazing. After all, she had seen too many good things after being the queen for two years in her previous life.

Seeing Lin Jinyan's casual attitude, Lady Yu came up to her and bent down and asked, "Miss, are you buying this as a gift? There are more unique ones in the private room inside. If you are interested, miss, please follow me."

Lin Jinyan nodded and followed Yuniang to the backyard. Yuniang took out several boxes and opened them one by one.

Lin Jinyan picked two unique earrings, asked if the price was fair, and asked them to pack them up.

Upon seeing this, Yu Niang took out some more jewelry. There were two jade bracelets that looked good in quality. Lin Jinyan took them in her hand and looked at them carefully. After asking the price, the two jade bracelets totaled 900 taels, so Lin Jinyan wrapped them up too.

When I came out, I picked out a hairpin in the lobby that was of ordinary quality but exquisite in appearance.

Lin Jinyan said: "Please help the shopkeeper install it for me. I'll go out for a walk and pick it up later. I wonder if there is a back door in the store?"

"I'll pack it up for you and wait. There's a back door. You two, please come with me."

Yu Niang smiled and led the two of them to the side door. She watched the master and servant walking into the alley, then turned back to the counter.

The little maid on the side asked Yu Niang: "Sister, they haven't paid yet? Just send them away."

Yu Niang smiled and said: "The carriage and entourage that came with them are all in front. She will definitely come back. That young lady's demeanor and vision are extraordinary. Why would she come to entertain me? She must be a strict daughter of some family, and take advantage of this opportunity. Just sneak out and play."

Not far after leaving Xingyue Pavilion, Lin Jinyan stopped in front of a shop called Taifeng Grain Store, waited at the door for a while and then walked in with Gu Momo.
