Chapter 1082: Word-of-Mouth is the Hardest Truth!
hness, we originally planned to gather information and collect things along the way. But by chance, we met a merchant who told us that there was a local medicinal herb similar to what you need in Yunz..."Oh, sister-in-law, if you hadn't said anything, I would have forgotten..." 。Then let's go to the jewelry store and take a good look, see if there are any nice designs. 。 。Jia Yin was also excited and responded, calling Shui Ling to go to the outer courtyard to arrange for carriages. 。The sister-in-law and her sister went back to change into their going-out clothes. The weather was too hot, and Jia Yin didn't even wear a hat. 。He Ma Ma wanted to stay behind to look after the house, but Jia Yin pulled her onto the car together. 。"Grandma has been taking care of the house for so long, always in the village, she must be bored." 。"This time, let's go shopping together!"
Grandma He wanted to decline again, after all, she had followed them, and only a few young girls were left in the old house. If something really happened, no one would be there to deal with it
But Wan'er also spoke up and invited, “Grandma, don’t worry about home, it’s just a morning of free time, the sky won’t fall!” 。Besides, the village head and his people are here too. They'll give us a few instructions in a while, and if anything happens, they'll naturally send someone into town to find us. 。Then, Grandma He understood and smiled, “Alright, I’ll go show the young mistress and the county princess.” 。"There are so many things to give children!"
"That's right," Jia Yin said, sitting beside Grandma He and smiling, "Grandma will choose a pair of bracelets for herself later, as a thank you from me." 。"My sister-in-law and I are rarely at home. We rely on you to take care of both the old house and the Junhou Mansion!" "This is what an old servant should do, I can't bear the gratitude of the Miss Junhou!" He Mamma was a bit frightened, but her heart was filled with joy. 。
Since the masters were away, she would have to put in more effort, but wasn't this a servant's duty
Live a comfortable life with food and clothing provided, no one scolds or beats you, the master and servant get along well. Who wouldn't envy this 。Jia Yin wouldn't let her refuse, and turned to Shui Ling, Shui Yun, and her sister-in-law's maidservant Chunxiu, "You two as well, if you see something you like later, feel free to pick it out." 。Today I pay the bill, reward you > 。"
Shui (Water) was lively and playful, immediately cheering up.
" 。"My lady, I want a silver bracelet. When I get home, give it to my mother." 。“ Watercloud also laughed and bowed in greeting, accepting without refusal. 。Growing up with a generous master, she had also gotten used to getting good things from time to time. 。Only Chunxiu looked at the master, a little hesitant. 。"Wǎn'er patted her hand and smiled, "A gift from the princess Just keep it." 。As the county princess, you have the most money in the family. Just pick what you like later, no need to be polite to her. 。Everyone burst into laughter, chatting excitedly about which jewelry store on the street was the best. 。Thus, the carriage journeyed into the city and turned onto the commercial street. 。I originally thought that with such hot weather, not many people would go shopping. 。To my surprise, the whole street was bustling with people, making it difficult for even carriages to pass through. 。Everyone could only get off the carriage early and walk in. 。"What a fine day, so many people out and about" Wan'er stepped on the bluestone pavement, feeling her embroidered shoes with thin soles almost being burnt through. 。...Jia Yin suddenly thought of the reason, and replied, "In a few days, the prince will select a consort, and I estimate that many people will come to prepare clothes and jewelry for their daughters." 。"Yes, I completely forgot about that. I'm afraid the jeweler and embroidery shop owners will be there too." 。 。Then, Jia Yin laughed and said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, we can take a private room and choose slowly." 。Besides, my soles are going to be cooked! I'd rather spend some money and avoid this suffering. 。" Then, she laughed too. "Let's go then. In a little while, not just the soles of our feet will be known, everyone will know us." 。The sister-in-law and the aunt laughed and chatted, and after a while they went into the jewelry store. 。As expected, the jewelry store was indeed packed with people. 。A few days ago, there were only three or four of us, but today there are seven or eight. We don't have enough room to entertain everyone. 。The old shopkeeper was sharp-eyed. From afar, he saw the couple standing at the door and with effort, squeezed through the crowd to get over there. 。"County mistress, Madam Young Master, it's our fault for being so inattentive!" the old shopkeep bowed respectfully and courteously. "Our shop is very busy today, and we didn't notice your arrival right away. We apologize." 。“ Jia Yin waved her hand and replied, “Shopkeeper, we want to see the children’s longevity locks and necklaces, as well as the hairpins and jade pendants for men.” 。"Can you find us a quiet place"
The shopkeeper was delighted and breathed a sigh of relief.
The shop was packed with people, almost all of them buying hairpins. If even County Princess Kangle were to join the fray, it would be quite embarrassing. 。Unexpectedly, County Princess Kangle was here to buy things for both children and men. This is a cold niche in the shop, completely incongruous! 。He immediately led the way ahead and sent Jia Yin and the others to the backyard. 。This jewelry store is a typical example of a front shop and back courtyard design. The shop itself is two stories high, spacious and grand. The courtyard behind it is much smaller in comparison. 。But when there are relatives or friends visiting during the day, it is not suitable to receive them in front. They should be led to the back instead. 。Therefore, the two rooms in the east wing were tidied up and decorated in a clean and elegant manner, becoming a tea room for guests. 。At this moment, Jia Yin and the others were brought into the room in the north. 。The shopkeeper shouted, ordering the maid to bring tea and snacks, and even had two tubs of ice brought over. 。The house quickly cooled down, bringing relief to everyone. 。Jia Yin looked at the shopkeeper constantly glancing outside. Guessing he was thinking about the business ahead, she smiled and said, "Shopkeeper, you better prepare plenty of what we need and let us have a look." 。Then you go busy ahead, no need to specially greet. 。" Well, Wan'er also said, “Yes indeed, shopkeeper, don’t neglect the guests ahead." 。Let's pick some things out, and rest our weary feet on your land. 。" Oh, no, no. No need for that. " 。"The shopkeeper beamed and bowed, "Thank you, Princess and Madam for your understanding. It has been a busy day indeed." 。Thus, this old man will have someone bring things over. 。If you two have any orders, just come and look for me, I will be there at your beck and call. 。" He politely declined and went to the front. " 。Shuiling looked at the snacks on the table, and there wasn't much fruit either. She rubbed against her mistress's side and said with a smile, "Miss Junzhu, this place is very close to our shop. I'll go get some juice for you and the young mistress to quench your thirst, okay"Shuoyun glared at her and scolded, "If you want to drink juice, just say so. Why are you putting on airs of serving your mistress!"Everyone laughed, Shuiling blushed and tugged at her mistress's sleeve coquettishly 。Then Jia Yin said, "Go ahead and get some ice cream for yourselves too. " 。The weather is too hot today, it's the perfect time to enjoy some cold drinks. 。"Okay! I'll be right back!" Shui Ling jumped up happily and ran out. As she left, she didn't forget to wink at Shui Yun. 。Everyone was amused by her again. 。At this time, a young man walked in carrying several trays. Half of them were filled with long life locks and necklaces, while the other half held various jade pendants and hairpins, even including small trinkets like fan pendants. 。It has to be said, word-of-mouth is the real deal. 。This jewelry store does good business, completely relying on its skills. 。All the objects are exquisitely made and of good quality. 。Jiao Yin remembered the promise she made to Grandma He and Shuiyun, so she asked the young servant to bring some ordinary hairpins and rings. 。 A crowd gathered around the tray, picking up this one and saying it was good, picking up that one and saying it was also not bad. It was a lively scene of choosing. Just then, another group of guests arrived and were led into the next room. 。Today's two updates are served ~~· also very angry and looked at the Li family with deep shame.They originally wanted to find a way to present a united front with the Li family, helping them fight back against the Wu family and the Em...
