First Empress Merchant

Chapter 211 The Arrogant Woman (2)
When the woman heard this, she was silent for a moment, then turned her head to look at an older woman next to her, "Auntie, are you interested in taking a look?"

"Since you're here, it's okay to take a look." The woman who was asked didn't think much about it, she nodded lightly, but before she opened her mouth, she casually glanced towards the direction where Lu Lishi was sitting. Then it moved back to the arrogant woman's face.

The four eyes met, Lu Lishi saw that the woman had recognized her, so she kicked Xin'er lightly without any trace.

Xin'er understood, so he said to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, hurry up and take it out for everyone to see. My lady has invited someone to Fuluzhai for tea, so don't waste the time."

The shopkeeper cupped his hands again, "Hey, I don't dare to waste your time, the younger one, let's go!"

Hearing this, the "aunt" glanced at Lu Lishi again, and waited until the shopkeeper entered the inner hall before saying to the arrogant woman: "Xu'er, you have finished shopping here, but there is still a place you want to go. ?”

The arrogant girl thought for a while and shook her head, "I don't have any particular place I want to go. What about you, aunt, do you have any plans to go?"

"Auntie" also shook her head, "I've been shopping with you all morning, I'm a little tired, and I plan to go back, but I heard that there is a pastry shop on South Street that serves good pastries, and it seems to be opened by the owner of Liyuan Villa. Go if you want to eat."

The arrogant girl was overjoyed when she heard the words, "Really? Then I must go! To be honest, I think the cakes of Liyuan Villa are very good in appearance and taste, but my mother is afraid that I will get fat and won't let me go. I'll eat more, aunt, don't tell my mother when you go back!"

"Auntie" smiled lightly, "You are too. Once you have something you like, you will hold on to it. It's okay if I don't tell your mother. Then you should be conscious. You won't be able to tell if you gain weight for a while, but If you break your teeth, don't expect me to help you again in the future."

The arrogant girl pulled "aunt"'s hand flatteringly, "Hey, I knew that my aunt loved me the most. Don't worry, aunt, I won't be greedy!"

"Auntie" smiled again, "Okay, I'll let Shuang'er go with you, go back early after you finish eating, don't let your mother worry."

The arrogant girl unconsciously revealed a disgusted expression when she heard this, "Auntie, please forgive me, it's not that you don't know that girl Shuang'er only listens to you, and she will go back after eating cakes, if she sees you on the road What a rare thing, if I want to buy it, she will definitely not help me, oh, it doesn't matter if I go alone!"

"Are you sure? This place is no better than Zhongnan. Everyone in Zhongnan knows our family and will help out if something happens, but here..." "Aunt" frowned slightly, but she was interrupted by the arrogant woman before she finished speaking.

"Don't worry, aunt. I heard from my brother last night that he will go to the South Street today. Maybe we will meet him. Let him go back with me when the time comes. Nothing will happen." The arrogant girl continued to lobby. "Aunt", while talking, he saw the shopkeeper coming out with a tray from the corner of his eye, and said again: "Hey, Auntie, let's make an agreement like this. Look, the things are here, let's have a look."

Seeing that she hadn't finished speaking, "aunt" got up and walked to the counter, shook her head lightly, thought of something, then looked at Lu Lishi for the third time, her eyes met, and then moved to the counter in sync with Lu Lishi .

The shopkeeper waited for the guests to gather before uncovering the red silk and said with a smile: "Everyone, this is the Chongyang series jewelry newly launched by our store. According to the customs of my Yunyang country, all relatives have to climb the mountain together on the day of Chongyang." disaster avoidance", and planting dogwood and appreciating chrysanthemums have become indispensable customs. Therefore, the owner of our shop came up with some styles that are very suitable for the occasion. Jewelry forging masters are meticulously crafted, and only after heavy checks can they make such lifelike jewelry. The small ones can guarantee that this set of jewelry has no similar models on the market except our shop. At the same time, our shop only sells gold and silver in limited quantities. 88 sets each, once sold out, our store will not accept any more orders."

Sure enough, "exclusive" and "limited" are definitely the Achilles heel of all women, no matter in ancient times or modern times. Lu Lishi found that after the last two sentences came out, all the female customers picked up one by one and took a closer look. In an instant, it changed to one catch three or four, not to mention, the eyes began to shine.

After a while, a female customer suddenly said: "Hey, the shopkeeper, why is there only gold jewelry with chrysanthemums? What is the silver jewelry? Dogwood? Well, this one is inlaid with red... agate, right? The red agate really looks like the fruit of dogwood. Well, but what is this earring that looks like a leaf? A dogwood leaf? But it doesn’t seem to be the same as what I’ve seen before?”

The shopkeeper replied: "This lady has a pair of eyes. Please allow me to speak slowly. Although chrysanthemums are colorful and charming, they are praised by literati and poets as noble and proud flowers. The owner thinks that among chrysanthemums, only golden chrysanthemums can bring out the cleanliness and nobility of a gentleman among flowers, and only gold can show the grace, integrity and enthusiasm of chrysanthemums, so this time our store only launched gold ornaments. As for silver ornaments , You look good, it is indeed dogwood, but the lady only knows one thing but not the other, this dogwood is divided into dogwood and food dogwood, please see, this kind of red agate inlaid is our common dogwood fruit, and this kind is food dogwood The leaves of Cornus officinalis, the reason why our store chooses the leaves of Cornus officinalis as the shape, is because its leaves are alternate feathery compound leaves, unique and interesting in appearance, it is the most suitable for making tremella pendants, such as yours If a lady as young as you wears it, it will definitely attract the attention of many men."

Hearing this, the female guest couldn't help but coquettishly said: "Shopkeeper, how can you talk like that, but listen to your introduction, these earrings look pretty playful, then I want two pairs of these earrings, or It would be nice to have this hairpin inlaid with red agate in silver, hey, this small and lovely gold hairpin seems to be good too, I want it too."

"Oh, well, the young lady is someone who knows how to dress herself up. This golden hairpin is made in the shape of a daisy. It is fresh and refined. It suits you very well. Wait a moment, little one, I will let the guy get the brocade box for you Wrap it up." After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he asked the recruiter to pick up the things.

"Auntie, this set of jewelry looks very unique. I'm blinded by it. How about you, do you see which one is particularly outstanding?" It was naturally the arrogant woman who said this.

"Auntie" thought for a while, then picked up a bracelet that looked expensive, not to mention the style, and said: "This bracelet looks pretty good. The base is made of bright green and floating jadeite, and it is hollowed out." Golden chrysanthemum carved border, I have never seen such a style, shopkeeper, is this also your master's idea?"

Hearing the words, the shopkeeper nodded proudly and said: "Miss, what you said is right, this bracelet is indeed what my boss wanted, because the green chrysanthemum is the most expensive among the chrysanthemums, and the color of the sun green jadeite is the same as that of the green chrysanthemum. The chrysanthemum is similar, and the addition of some gold carvings and flower borders just plays the role of finishing touch. To be honest, jade is precious because it is unique from the original stone to the finished product, and because it is necessary to choose the most suitable Yang green, darker, lighter, more, or less will not work, so although this bracelet is not included in the Chongyang series of jewelry, this store only sells ten pieces, if you want to order again, you have to wait until you find a suitable one Emerald will do."
