I am stable

Chapter 56 The Pearl Tower

After hearing Gu Qingwan's agreement, Lu Manqin was very proud. Didn't she want to listen to her in the end?
Seeing her shaking her head like this, Xu Jiayin felt a little colder towards her in her heart. Such a daughter doesn't know how to treat people who are not beneficial to her when she goes out in the future?
Thinking that he can't control her, he just needs to stay far away from now on, and then walked in together holding Gu Qingwan's arm.

Lu Manli couldn't say anything more at this time, she could only be anxious. Seeing the expression and movements of the elder sister-in-law at this time, and seeing the smile of the second sister-in-law as usual, she suddenly felt that Lu Manqin's situation was not good.

Let the elder sister-in-law and second sister-in-law in the family be full of opinions on her, what is she trying to do?Even if she has a younger brother, but you must know that Lu Yu is only 11 years old this year, and she still can't take care of herself, so what can she support her?
To put it bluntly, their status in the in-law's family will be closely related to the attitude of the elder brother and the second brother. After all, it is the elder brother and the second brother who hold up the lintel of the Lu family.

Without the support of the eldest brother and the second brother, how much weight do other people have?

What Lu Manli was thinking Lu Manqin didn't know, she was happy and proud at the moment, stepped forward to hold Lu Manli and said happily: "Sister Qiyao told me a few days ago that their family has bought a new batch of goods, so let's go have a look."

Lu Manli: ...I really have to consider listening to my mother and staying away from her!

Gu Qingwan felt that even if it was the shop of the Yuan family, she might not necessarily meet Yuan Qiyao herself, and even if she met someone with a guilty conscience, it should be her instead of herself, that's why she was so generous.

Seeing a customer coming into Jinxiufang, the clerk smiled and came forward to greet him. Behind the counter was a middle-aged man in his 40s, wearing a dark blue gown and a pair of glasses. He was planning to settle accounts. He should be from the store dispensers.

When he saw them coming in, he put down his abacus and walked forward with a smile, and said to Lu Manqin, "Miss Lu is here!" in a very familiar tone, and then said hello to Gu Qingwan and the three of them, "Hi ,welcome!"

Lu Manqin also walked in the familiar way, and asked, "Where is Sister Qiyao? Why don't you see her?"

The shopkeeper was accustomed to her behavior, and replied with a smile: "Miss still has something to do and didn't come to the store today. If I knew that you came, it would be considered a big thing, and I would have pushed it down to accompany you."

Lu Manqin seemed satisfied with what he said, and said with a smile: "It's my fault, I didn't tell her in advance, but it's okay, we just came to see what new clothes materials are available today."

The shopkeeper smiled happily, "Hey, take your time and call Zhang if you need anything." The shopkeeper's surname is Zhang.

Lu Man smiled reservedly, and waved her hands, "Go and do your work, let's see for ourselves."

Shopkeeper Zhang smiled at Gu Qingwan and the others, not saying much, maintaining proper courtesy, then turned around and went back behind the counter to continue to settle his own accounts.

Gu Qingwan looked at this shopkeeper and had to sigh in admiration. The Yuan family really knew how to find someone. This shopkeeper Zhang looked like he was coming back. He could compliment Lu Manqin so vainly. His words, people don't feel annoying but very useful.

Maintain just the right courtesy to ordinary guests, not flattering, not indifferent, so that people can't find fault.

Seeing Lu Manqin's behavior, Xu Jiayin frowned again. Is this how she behaves outside?Those who didn't know thought the Lu family's tutoring was bad.

This is a no-brainer, can't you tell the truth from the falsehood in other people's words?Even how much sincerity that Yuan Qiyao can have for her is open to question, because although the shopkeeper's words are nice, he never mentioned a word from the beginning to the end that he sent someone to invite her or called Yuan Qiyao. That is to say, people are probably superficially perfunctory to her.

It's just that she still has a proud face, and she doesn't know her last name after being complimented by others, she is really stupid!
Although Ji Shuping is not so lovable, I have to say that she is actually a bit smart, at least better than Lu Manqin, but she didn't teach her daughter what she should teach, and she taught her what she shouldn't teach.

Can't tell the difference, love vanity, plus a brainless, really worrying!
Xu Jiayin knew that now was not the time to talk about these things, so she ignored her and dragged Gu Qingwan to look at the clothes and fabrics.

Needless to say, the Yuan family still has two brushes to do this. At least they have a good eye. The ready-to-wear in the store is good in quality, color and style, and the fabrics are also in popular colors and patterns.

Gu Qingwan likes custom-made clothes, which fit better, so what he looks at is the fabric, Xu Jiayin's clothes are almost all custom-made, and the two of them discussed the cloth.

She also urged Xu Jiayin to choose fabrics with brighter colors to make mother-daughter outfits with Lulu. The color and style are the same, so eye-catching when going out!

"That's a good idea, I'll go and have a look." After speaking, he went to choose with excitement.

Over there, Lu Manqin also pulled Lu Manli to choose together. She always felt that she wanted everything, so it was difficult to choose.

Looking at her eyes, Lu Manli knew what she was thinking, so she reached out to hold her and gave her a quiet wink, signaling her to restrain herself.

Lu Manqin also knew that today was originally a gift from her aunt, and it would be considered a special kindness for them to choose by themselves, so how could it be possible for them to push forward.

But knowing it was the same thing, she still couldn't help but feel uncomfortable, especially when she watched Gu Qingwan and Xu Jiayin's selection over there happily, she was even more unconvinced, they were the Lu family's Daughter, she should be more delicate than others, even if she is a sister-in-law, what is that Gu Qingwan?
Isn't she the lady of a down and out family?Why should it be better than what I got?
She said she brought them over to pick them up, but in the end she couldn't do what she wanted, they couldn't do what she wanted, but Gu Qingwan could. Before leaving, the second brother asked A Jin to send them off. She didn't understand, where is Gu Qingwan? Well, let the second brother do this?
Except for that face, she couldn't think of anything Gu Qingwan could compare to Yuan Qiyao, and if sister Qiyao became her second sister-in-law, she wouldn't just choose it by herself when she got here!

Sister Qiyao treats her so well now, wouldn't it be better if she became her second sister-in-law and became a family?Lu Manqin thought of this, and then looked at the fabrics of the clothes in the store and couldn't help feeling sorry, but it was a pity that Yuan Qiyao was not his second sister-in-law.

That's why I saw that Gu Qingwan was not pleasing to the eye. Not only could it not bring her any benefits, but there were also many restrictions. My mother was right, those who come from a small family are stingy, how can I be as generous as Qi Yao!

Despite a lot of dissatisfaction, in the end they each chose a piece of material under Lu Manli's supervision. Lu Manqin was dissatisfied in his heart, so even if he faced the financial patron Gu Qingwan, he still didn't look good. Gu Qingwan didn't bother to talk to her, and Lu Manli was speechless up.

If it wasn't for coming out together, Lu Manqin might not be able to get well if she did too much. Now she doesn't want to care about her anymore. She listened to what she said before, but now she doesn't know how to hide it anymore.

Ji Shuping contributed to her being like this, she didn't like Gu Qingwan because of Yuan Qiyao, and Ji Shuping was gossiping behind her back all day long, and what happened during Laba made her have a little affection for Gu Qingwan. Dissatisfied, so when it comes to Gu Qingwan, there is no good thing to say.

Affected by such negative emotions, and she is easily swayed by other people's thoughts, so she almost has no intention of covering up her dislike for Gu Qingwan, and she doesn't feel the need to cover up.

After choosing the fabric here, go to choose the jewelry. The jewelry in Jinxiu Pavilion looks good and has a wide range of styles. The selection is not too slow. Then they went shopping, so A Jin took them to a restaurant.

A Jin took them to the Pearl Restaurant, where the seats were reserved in advance, and they could order food when they entered.

Pearl Restaurant is considered one of the best restaurants in Beiping. Usually, you have to book a seat in advance for meals, not to mention that it is still time for meals. Ah Jin is also good at booking a private room for them.

After they entered, a waiter came to greet them and lead the way. The private room was upstairs. When they were about to go upstairs, they saw a few men coming down from the upstairs. The oldest was in his 40s, and the youngest was probably in his early twenties. This posture is headed by the young man in his early twenties, all of them are in suits and leather shoes, and they have an extraordinary momentum. When they walk upstairs and downstairs together, they make people feel that they cannot be messed with.

Gu Qingwan knows that in this era, the people you meet casually on the street may not be ordinary people, let alone from the Pearl Tower.

Even if she was curious, she would not stare at the faces and clothes of a few people, but just lowered her head and waited for them to go down. When Ah Jin saw a few people, she had already taken the initiative to block them with the waiter Up front, all they have to do is wait quietly.

Even in troubled times, Gu Qingwan didn't think that these elites would have that American time to pay attention to them, so he didn't feel nervous, but when they were about to walk over, the young man in charge stopped beside Gu Qingwan After a moment, he looked at her with deep eyes.

Although Gu Qingwan didn't know what kind of eyes he was looking at him with, he could still feel his scrutiny, and he didn't quite understand why he suddenly noticed him.

His pause and scrutiny were only for a moment, and it would be difficult to notice if he didn't pay attention, so he didn't attract the attention of others, and then they walked straight out.

But Gu Qingwan felt that something was wrong. She knew that the pause and scrutiny just now were not her own illusions, so she was wondering, did he know her?
