Chapter five hundred and thirteen someone came to find fault

The shopkeeper nodded and didn't say much, but he felt in his heart that no one could take away these three sets of pens, inks, paper and inkstones.

Shui Ling took out the tea leaves and handed them over, then ran back to Shoumei Pavilion to find a girl who was as weak and elegant as Lin Daiyu.

"What's your name?"

"Ah... Princess, my name is Mu Xiang." The girl was startled by the water spirit.

Shui Ling smiled and said, "Am I that scary? I'm just asking if you like tea?"

Mu Xiang's eyes lit up, "I like it. I used to pick wild tea when I was a child."

"Very good, let's find someone who is good at playing the piano. She doesn't want to be gorgeous, just has decent looks." Shui Ling said.

"Yes." Mu Xiang went to find a girl who was similar in appearance to her and was soft and frail.

Shui Ling nodded, "Okay, just the two of you. From now on, you will go to Mingxiang Pavilion, one will be the tea girl and the other will be the piano girl. The salary will be an extra tael of silver."

After a pause, she looked sideways, "There are many young talents in the teahouse, but you all have to keep your hearts to me. If a man who is sincere to you comes to ask for your hand in marriage in the future, and you are willing, I will give you a dowry and sell myself to you."

Contract, let you go free."

The two girls knelt on the ground with a thud and said in unison: "I will not marry you."

Shui Ling pulled them up and sighed: "You can't help but get married. The prerequisite is to meet the right person."

Mu Xiang sighed, "There used to be many people who said they would marry us, but we didn't even see our shadows after we were in trouble, so we don't believe those stinky men's words."

Shui Ling felt relieved. These girls were knowledgeable in Lefang and would not be easily deceived.

"Okay, okay, you are still young and have time to choose. Now I will teach you how to make tea and the four tunes of Plum, Orchid, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum." Shui Ling immediately began to teach separately.



When the day came for the trial opening of Mingxiang Pavilion and Shitouxian, Shui Lingxian sat in the corner of Mingxiang Pavilion, dressed like an ordinary man.

The shopkeeper said: "The time has come. Open the door. There won't be many people here this early in the morning."

When the waiter opened the door, the two of them were startled by the crowd outside.

The shopkeeper came to his senses and quickly raised his hands and said, "Thank you for your compliments. Please come in."

The people pouring in were all young men, many of them gorgeously dressed, but most of them were men wearing simple and elegant gowns.

Shui Ling was in the corner and no one paid attention to her, so she had a rest.

A handsome man wearing a robe embroidered with green bamboo said: "Didn't you say there is a match? There is also a top-notch calligraphy treasure as a prize?"

The shopkeeper nodded, "Yes." He took a bamboo pole and opened the curtain hanging on the wall opposite the door.

The pairs and Mo Bao appeared, and the smiles on the students' faces froze, and then they looked at each other.

The shopkeeper knew that they were sorry, so in order to avoid embarrassment, he started to introduce Mo Bao.

"These three sets of calligraphy were made by a master over the border. These were his last three works. They were originally a set of plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum, but the master kept the set of chrysanthemums and refused to give them away, so only

These three sets.”

The students' eyes almost emitted blue light. If it were a set of plum blossoms, orchids, bamboos and chrysanthemums, they would not be so enthusiastic. Now that one set is missing, the remaining ones are all orphans. They must get one set to keep them.

It's good for family heirlooms.

A young man wearing a plain silk scarf said: "Does this ink have a fragrance?"

The shopkeeper nodded, "There are three scents of plum, orchid, bamboo, and there are answers to the pairs, right next to them. If the answers are the same, the corresponding set of calligraphy treasures will be given to you as prizes."

The students started talking again, but unfortunately no one came up with a pair for a long time.

The shopkeeper said: "There is fragrant tea upstairs, and the tea lady is making tea. If you just say something right, you can get a cup of tea for free from the tea lady."

At this time, a string of piano music came from upstairs, and the students' eyes lit up again and they went upstairs one after another.

Shui Ling nodded. It seemed that there was no problem here. She went out to the Stone Immortal.

It's just that this place is much more popular than the teahouse, and there's actually a queue at the door.

Shui Ling waited for a while and found out that the girls who met at the eldest princess's mansion came with their families.

This...should I get some gifts?

She found a corner and quietly entered the space, and made some safety buckles with jade. Of course, they were not as beautiful as the ones given to the eldest princess.

There are also casual cards worn by men, which are mainly simple.

After making these things, Shui Ling quietly entered Shi Shixian's backyard workshop, took out the safety buckle and the peace card, and said, "This is what my boss asked me to send. If any girl says that she has met the princess at the Princess Dachang's Mansion,

, I’ll give you the same thing.”

"This is a safe buckle, suitable for girls to wear. This piece of light is called the Wu Shi Pai. Men wear it to turn bad luck into good luck. You can find some necklaces and tassels to match them."

"Okay." Kapok hurriedly hit the back of his head with his foot. When he saw that the thing was real, he had no doubts. After all, only his own boss would be so generous.

Shui Ling walked out and walked around to the front yard. These people looked at many things and bought few. Is the price too expensive?

Forget it, that’s it, it’s already 20% off, how much cheaper do you want?

While everyone was watching, a man with a big belly walked in. His face was also very fat, his cheeks were bulging high, his mouth was chirping, and his eyes were squinted and he didn't know whether to open or close them.

When he came in, he picked up a jade incense burner and looked at it, and then said in surprise: "Oh, isn't this something from the ground? It's really unlucky."

"Don't you stone fairies have anything of your own? Or are you just digging graves?"

Shui Ling frowned, I don't know this person, why are you looking for trouble? Who are you here for?

Chen Hanshu said calmly: "Master Mu, how can you tell that these are dug out of the soil?"

"Huh, this style of incense burner was from hundreds of years ago. Where did it come from if it wasn't dug out of the soil?" Mr. Mu said firmly.

Chen Hanshu smiled faintly and said, "Then I'll sell you this incense burner. I don't want more, just three hundred taels."

"Three hundred taels? If it's so cheap, there's something wrong with it. Everyone, please be careful. If you don't buy a ghost weapon and go home, it's unlucky." Master Mu said loudly.

Shui Ling pursed her lips and suppressed the urge to kick him out. Who was sent to cause trouble?

Chen Hanshu's face showed pride, "I didn't expect that even Mr. Mu didn't notice my old-fashioned way. I should raise the price next time."

A tall, tall man in fine clothes took the incense burner from Master Mu. He actually had a magnifying glass made of crystal. He looked at the incense burner and said, "It doesn't have the color of Tuqin. If it's polished smooth, it's not like this."

It’s not a ghost weapon, it’s a new one but an old one.”

"Old Chen, your craftsmanship is not good. Even if it looks good at first glance, your mistake is that you shouldn't polish it so smoothly. There was no such craftsmanship hundreds of years ago."

Chen Hanshu blushed, "Looking at what you said, you love to expose me."

The conversation between the two made the people around them feel relieved. People would like to buy antiques if it were for other things, but not for jade. Once the jade is used as a ghost tool, it will lose its spirituality and take on the yin energy, which is unlucky.
