On the ninth day of February, spring began. Chen Xiuyan already had the experience of sending Luo Wenqian and others to the provincial examination. This time, Tao Taifu came to the front again, and he was even more unhurried and sent people safely to the venue. Chen Xiuyan was free again.

Although the weather was a little cold, she still couldn't resist the mood of shopping. Chen Xiuyan went out alone to go shopping. After letting the carriage drop down in the busy streets of the inner city, she began to sweep away.

The clothing fabrics in the capital are exquisite, with many designs, colors, and varieties. What woman doesn't like beautiful clothes? Chen Xiuyan came here once in a while to choose accordingly for her family, her mother-in-law, and Mrs. Yuan, who are close friends.

color patterns.

The price is also very gratifying. When I left the cloth store, my money was ten taels less. Haha, I can’t wait to make money.

The only good thing is that stores in the capital can deliver goods to your door.

In addition to clothes, what women like is jewelry. Chen Xiuyan walked into a nearby jewelry store. It was very large. As soon as Chen Xiuyan entered, she was warmly welcomed by the younger brother.

"Madam, are you in the lobby or private room?" the second brother asked in a low voice.

Chen Xiuyan didn't understand, which also made it obvious that it was her first time here.

"Except for the price of jewelry, there are no other additional charges in the lobby, but private rooms require consumption." The second brother explained. Although he concealed it well, he was still young after all. Chen Xiuyan still saw a flash in the other person's eyes.

of contempt.

"Then let's go to the lobby." Chen Xiuyan said nonchalantly.

"Ma'am, please come here. If there is any jewelry you want to try on, just ask him to get it for you." The second brother pointed at the young man who looked one or two years older than him and said to Chen Xiuyan.

"Um."

The second brother led Chen Xiuyan to the ground and then went to greet the people who came in. He personally led the people upstairs, his voice was melodious and funny along the way. He was a person who knew how to do business, Chen Xiuyan thought to herself.

"Little Qingfeng, what kind of jewelry would you like to see, Madam?" The clear voice next to her reminded her. Chen Xiuyan raised her head and took a closer look. Although it looked ordinary, the voice was very good.

"Let me take a look at the rings." Chen Xiuyan's purpose this time was to buy a pair of wedding rings for Luo Mingqing and Cai Baoxiang. Maybe it was because of her modern thinking, and she also wanted to buy a pair for herself and Luo Wenqian.

"Ring?" Qingfeng was a little confused.

"It's just worn on the finger." Chen Xiuyan explained.

"Madam is talking about the ring. I'll bring it to Madam if you are young." Qingfeng was a little surprised. Very few customers came to buy rings specifically. There are also relatively few types of rings in jewelry, especially for women. Men's jade rings are relatively popular.

welcome.

Qingfeng took out a row of boxes with rings on them. Most of them were silver rings. The rings were relatively wide. Chen Xiuyan felt that they were about the same width as the modern copper rings used to protect fingers when using needles.

"Are there any that are more exquisitely made? Gold jewelry or gold inlaid with jade, or jade jewelry can be used." Chen Xiuyan asked.

"Yes, little one, go and get it." Qingfeng somewhat underestimated Chen Xiuyan's purchasing power. When she heard that the material Chen Xiuyan wanted was of good quality, she hurriedly went upstairs to get a box.

"Ma'am, please take a look." Qingfeng opened the box carefully. The box was shaped like an eighteenth square. There was a ring in one of the boxes. Chen Xiuyan instantly found it pleasing to the eye.

There is a gold ring inlaid with sapphires on the edge. The sapphires are not big in size. Several small pieces are inlaid around the ring. Of course, they are not inlaid randomly. The outer ring of gold is twisted into the shape of a leaf. The sapphires are

It was embedded in the petals. Just as Chen Xiuyan was about to pick it up and take a closer look, she was pushed aside.

"Sister, look, this ring is so beautiful."

A pair of sisters came, and the one who squeezed Chen Xiuyan away was a girl of thirteen or fourteen years old wearing a brocade cloak. Behind her, a girl of fourteen or fifteen years old glanced at Chen Xiuyan lightly, frowned slightly, "Follow me."

Whatever the low-class people grab, go to the private room and pick it out. If you want it, someone will bring it to you."

The younger sister stuck out her tongue and ignored Chen Xiuyan at all, "Sister, I'm so impatient. Last time I came here, I happened to take a look at the design of this ring and was waiting for it to be made. I didn't expect that today

Come and see it.”

"Your boss said that this ring is the only one. I have reserved it a long time ago. You can't just sell it to others." The little girl yelled and turned to glare at Chen Xiuyan.

"I'm sorry, Madam. I didn't know about this, otherwise I wouldn't have made things difficult for Madam." Qingfeng immediately bowed to Chen Xiuyan and apologized, with her head lowered.

When Chen Xiuyan saw this, she didn't let anyone embarrass her, "Then let me see other things."

Qingfeng bowed to Chen Xiuyan again, her eyes showed gratitude, Chen Xiuyan nodded to him, and then Qingfeng respectfully took the ring and sent it upstairs.

"This kind of mistake will be made. Forget it. Miss Japan is in a good mood today, so I'll let you go." The younger sister raised her head slightly and said, then she went upstairs without looking away.

There were many people looking at the jewelry downstairs. At this time, Chen Xiuyan became a treasure among the crowds. Others either gloated about her misfortune or looked at her with sympathy and pity.

When Qingfeng came back, she had a plate of preserves in her hand, "Madam, I'm sorry, thank you so much for just now."

"It's okay, I'll take a look at something else." Qingfeng's attitude was very good, and Chen Xiuyan didn't want to embarrass him. It was just a trivial matter.

Chen Xiuyan picked up a gold ring. The ring was made of generous and simple gold. The shoulder of the ring was slightly hollowed out, with auspicious cloud patterns embedded inside, and a pearl inlaid on the surface of the ring.

"This one..."

Chen Xiuyan moved her right hand holding the ring to the side, causing the maid who came to snatch it to miss it.

"My young lady also likes this ring." The maid threw it away, her face not very good, she glared at Chen Xiuyan and said, and then reached out to grab it again.

Chen Xiuyan stood up and stretched out her hand to lift it up. Her tall height meant that the maid could not reach it even if she jumped.

"You woman, do you know who my young lady is, yet you dare to rob my young lady?" the maid said arrogantly.

"Are you saying the opposite?" Chen Xiuyan said amusedly, "Since your young lady has such a big background, why do you want to rob her from an ordinary woman like me?"

"Whatever you want to grab or not, it's my lady's choice. The store owner will naturally stick to my lady. I want to save your face by letting me come. Don't toast me and you'll be fined." The maid snorted.

"Hey." Chen Xiuyan once again lamented the importance of status and power. Although she didn't have it, she could only take advantage of it at this time, otherwise she would be bullied into the mud, although she wanted to go up and beat him up.

He said, "Send all the jewelry I like to the Taifu's house later."

As soon as Chen Xiuyan finished speaking, the lobby fell silent.

"I don't care who your young lady is, if she has any problems, ask her to come to me at the Taifu Mansion."

Chen Xiuyan's words made the maid look shocked and suspicious.
