334 Slap in the face

The second cousin praised the Li family both in and out of words, and it seemed that she was more willing to marry this marriage than the first cousin.

Gu Qingya smiled secretly in her heart: This second cousin looks down on her aunt.

The Fang family must have mentioned their own marriage, otherwise Miss Li would not have come to her to go crazy.

Gu Qingya doesn't care whether it's good intentions or swindling intentions, but she just can't see if others want to show off in front of her.

"Okay, my cousin is getting married, so it's natural for a cousin to help. Anyway, there's still a while before lunch, so Ling'er will accompany the two cousins ​​to look at the jewelry first."

The four of them entered the store. The shopkeeper was treating customers normally, but when he saw Gu Qingya entering the store, he immediately became polite: "Miss Chen San, do you want to see the jewelry?"

This silver building is the shop of Mayor Li's family. When I came back to wash jewelry in the shop last time, I happened to meet Li Qingqi here.

Shopkeeper Li is so enthusiastic, Gu Qingya is naturally polite: "Uncle Li, these are my relatives, and I want to see the jewelry in your store."

Shopkeeper Li said immediately after hearing this: "Just look at it, everyone, just choose what kind of jewelry you want, I will definitely give you a fair and reasonable price from the shopkeeper."

When Shopkeeper Li enthusiastically called Gu Qingya and Miss Chen San, the expressions of the two cousins ​​and aunts changed.

Now that Shopkeeper Li's words came out, the second concubine couldn't help it: "Ling'er, do you know Shopkeeper Li? This is good, we are not afraid of being tricked."

The eldest sister-in-law was also very happy: "Although it is said that it is just buying some silver jewelry, I am relieved to have acquaintances around."

Gu Qingya smiled faintly: "I am friends with Mr. Li Si from Mayor Li's family, and this shop belongs to his family. Aunt and concubine, you just choose, Uncle Li will never raise your price, let alone shoddy."

This sentence is said to be polite, but it actually told the shopkeeper Li that as long as the price is fair, there is no need to accept his favor.

Shopkeeper Li was indeed a shrewd person, and immediately led several people to the silver jewelry area.

After looking at a few pieces of jewelry, they asked Gu Qingya to help them choose.

Regarding the things for Miss Li, Gu Qingya was not in the mood: "Uncle Li, how about some recommendations for you? You are an expert in these."

Shopkeeper Li immediately said: "There are three sets of the most fashionable silver jewelry this year, and the sets you hold in each of your two ladies are the best sellers in the building this year. Just pick one of the sets.”

The elder sister-in-law of the Fang family is an honest person, she immediately said: "That's okay, brother and sister, which one do you think is better? Jinghao is your cousin's daughter, she will definitely like the one you chose."

As soon as the eldest sister-in-law of the Fang family said the words, Gu Qingya immediately understood: No wonder the second sister-in-law is so happy, so she is an aunt!

Fang Xing is a good-looking talent, although I don't know how well he reads, but his appearance is more than enough to match that of Li Jinghao.

If Li Jing hadn't relied on the fact that her father was Fang Xing's wife and that the two concubines were in harmony, Fang Xing couldn't have taken a liking to her.

Gu Qingya shook her head secretly: Are you fighting for your father in this day and age?

Seeing that the sister-in-law puts her own opinion first, the second concubine Fang was very happy. She held up the jewelry in her hand, compared it with the jewelry in the hands of the eldest concubine Fang, and finally chose a set of Dian emerald flying eagle.

Shopkeeper Li still gave Gu Qingya a little face, a set of jewelry was five hundred bucks lower than the lowest price sold in the store, and they collected three to two to five hundred bucks in total.

It seemed that the Fang family still attached great importance to this marriage. After leaving the silver building, they went into the cloth shop. When they arrived at the small courtyard of the Chen family, all three of them had a lot of hugs in their hands.

Mrs. Chen stood at the door and looked around. She was very enthusiastic when she saw the four of them: "Which girl is so blessed with so many good things as dowry gifts?"

Fang Erjin was very proud: "She is the eldest daughter of my brother Jiaxing's wife. In the future, my brother Jiaxing will be taken care of by his father-in-law. The exam for a scholar is a matter at hand. In the future, my brother Jiaxing will be a scholar. This scholar The dowry of the lady is of course good."

It is said that she is the junior sister of Mr. Fang's family. It is of course a good thing that this scholar has a father-in-law who is his wife.

Chen Wang immediately smiled: "Isn't it? As long as he is admitted as a scholar, he will be a man of the yamen. My nephew just passed the exam this year. I heard from my natal sister-in-law that he will be able to receive a salary from the yamen a month later." Two offerings of silver and two buckets of food!"

This time the second concubine was even happier: "Really? Congratulations! Sister-in-law, as long as Brother Xing is admitted as a scholar next year, he will be a man of the yamen! Finding a good Yue family will be a great help." Nah!"

A few people chatted and laughed and entered the courtyard, because the house was still under renovation and the weather was not cold, so the meal was served under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree in the courtyard.

Chen Wang waited for them to sit down, and immediately went to ask the helper to eat.

Gu Qingya brought tea to the three of them first and was about to serve the food when Second Concubine Fang stopped her: "Ling'er, did you just build these two rooms?"

Gu Qingya nodded: "Yes, this is only a wall, and I, Uncle Yi Qing, are working on the inside of the house."

Fang Erjin's eyes widened: "The green bricks used for all these? It will cost a lot of money, right?"

Chen Wang just happened to bring up a tray of dishes, put the dishes away, and she said with a smile: "The money for bricks, tiles and flowers is not bad, let me see, the renovation and furniture in this house probably cost more money." .”

Fang Erjin's eyes lit up: "How much money will it cost?"

Chen Wang said while setting up the chopsticks: "Her uncle gave Mao estimated 35 taels to 40 taels. Of course, Ling girl also said that she can get some good furniture. I'm afraid it will be in the early 50 taels."

In an instant, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Fang family were stunned.

Fang Erjin didn't seem to believe it: "Ling'er, how many houses have you spent so much money to renovate? 50 taels of silver is enough for you to build a house with a depth of two depths! Where did you get so much money? It can't be Where did you borrow it?"

Chen Wang was a little unhappy when he heard this, why borrow money?
Where can I borrow so much money?
Even if it is borrowed money, it is used like this. Doesn't this mean that Ling'er will not be able to manage the house?
Everyone said that this person was just protecting his weaknesses, but Chen Wang was annoyed, but she smiled like a flower on her face: "Hehe, her second concubine is worried. My Ling'er doesn't need to borrow this little money. She is a little rich now."

Fang Erjin's teeth were throbbing, but she was a person who was good at hiding her expression, so she deliberately asked with a surprised face: "Ling'er, where did you get rich? There is such a good way to get rich, don't forget your aunt. "

Gu Qingya smiled shyly: "Second concubine, where is there any way to get rich, but Ling'er is lucky. The eldest son of Li Zhengnan's family, Li Dalang, was ill last time, and I have the folk prescription left by my mother on hand." I saved his life, and then sold some grass for about 500 taels of silver."

"What? A folk prescription, a little herbal medicine sold for 500 taels? There are such valuable herbs in this world, are they not grass but treasures?" Fang Erjin's eyes really fell out this time, you must know the whole recipe The sum of all the family's wealth does not add up to 200 taels!
