Strange love across time and space
Chapter 101 Buy Rouge and Gouache
Su Qing would avoid these two cousins whom she had just met, or even the entire Jiang family except the Jiang family, if she could, and speak less if she couldn't avoid them. Not only Su Qing, but also Su Rui and Su Qixuan also had this attitude. Everyone also took Jiang's face into consideration. Although they all understand the purpose of the Jiang family, they just hope to let the Jiang family retreat without causing any rift. Of course, if the Jiang family insists on making trouble, then it is okay to sever the relationship.
After dinner, Jiang said they were tired after a long day's journey and asked everyone to rest. As soon as they left, Butler Li entered the room, took out the purse Jiang Mei gave him and said, "Madam, this is what my cousin gave this old slave. Look at this..."
Jiang took it over and pinched the portion. In fact, it was just a few pieces of silver and not much money, so she returned it to Butler Li, sighed and said, "Oh! I'm not afraid of Butler Li's jokes. My natal family wants to make money." These two children came to marry the Su family and want to establish themselves in the capital through the Su family, but I won't agree. Just keep the money. Since they are relatives of my natal family, they can eat and use the above, as long as it is not excessive. Try to satisfy them as much as possible, and you don't have to worry about anything else. I feel relieved that there is a phantom guarding Qingqing's side. As for Rui'er's yard, send two more people to guard it to prevent others from taking advantage of the loophole. My place My niece is not a good person."
Butler Li was shocked and immediately understood what Jiang meant. He cupped his hands and said, "Madam, don't worry, I will make proper arrangements."
That night, two servants were placed in Jiang Feng's and Jiang Mei's courtyards. They said they were to serve them, but in fact they were monitoring them.
After Jiang Mei washed up, she lay on the bed and tossed and turned, too excited to fall asleep. Dong'er set up a bunk next to the bed to sleep on, making it easier for Jiang Mei to get up and drink water at night. Jiang Mei sat up, opened the bed curtain, and said to Dong'er, "There are many noble people in the capital. I have to dress nicely when I go shopping tomorrow. Go and hang up my new pink dress made for the New Year. Stop getting wrinkled." Dong'er had no choice but to get up, light a candle and look for clothes.
Jiang Mei then ordered, "Put the white jade hair and face set that my aunt just gave me on the dressing table and prepare it. Tomorrow this outfit will definitely be no worse than those noble ladies!" There was excitement in her tone that could not be concealed. After thinking for a while, he muttered, "Among the brocades that my aunt gave to the Jiang family this time, I saw that there are some colors and patterns that are particularly suitable for me. Unfortunately, time is too tight, otherwise the clothes would definitely look good!"
Dong'er was tired after a long day's journey. She wondered how her young lady could be so excited. She yawned and said, "Miss, it's getting late. You should go to bed early. As long as you get enough sleep, you can go shopping tomorrow." You are energetic." Jiang Mei lay down again.
On the morning of the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, after breakfast, Su Qing took Jiang Feng and Jiang Mei out for shopping. Jiang Mei came to the capital for the first time. She felt that the streets in the capital were much more prosperous than in Fuyang, and everyone was dressed better than people in other places. The sun was shining brightly today, and there were many young men from rich families out shopping. When they passed by, they all looked at Su Qing and Jiang Mei. Su Qing had long been used to this situation, and walked forward without squinting. Jiang Mei was different. Every time a man looked at her, she couldn't help but blush. Oh my God, there weren't so many rich men on the streets of Fuyang. These men in the capital, no matter in terms of quantity or temperament, In terms of dress and appearance, they directly surpass Fuyang County! Jiang Mei covered her pounding heart with her hands and completely forgot why she came out.
When Jiang Feng saw Jiang Mei's look, he rolled his eyes. It was so embarrassing, as if he had never seen the world, although she had indeed never seen the world. Looking back at Su Qing, he is worthy of being the head of the county. He can be so calm and calm in the face of so many looks. Jiang Feng feels that the pressure is even greater. Any rich man on the street seems to be better than him. What qualifications does he have to let Su Qing? Like it? The only bit of family affection seemed weightless at this time.
Su Qing also noticed Jiang Mei's reaction, shook her head helplessly and asked, "Cousin, do you have anything to buy?"
Jiang Mei really forgot what she wanted to buy at this moment. Dong'er beside her reminded, "Miss, didn't you say you wanted to buy some rouge and gouache?" Jiang Mei nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, oops, I'm sorry, cousin, I When I came back to the capital for the first time, I went shopping and forgot what I wanted to buy. Don’t laugh at my cousin."
Su Qing smiled slightly, "It doesn't matter, I know there is a rouge shop that sells pretty good stuff. I'll take my cousin there." Seeing Jiang Mei nodding, Su Qing walked forward again. In fact, Su Qing also heard Ding Xiang say that the shop was pretty good, so she remembered it.
After a while, they came to an old shop. Su Qing pointed to the shop and said, "Cousin, this is it. Although the shop is not big, the quality of the rouge and gouache inside is still very good, otherwise it would not have been in the capital for decades."
Jiang Mei nodded and walked in. She saw that there was indeed a wide variety of things in the store. When she saw a customer coming to the door, the waiter hurriedly greeted him enthusiastically. Su Qing directly said to the waiter, "My cousin wants to choose some high-quality rouge and gouache. Please introduce it to me." The waiter hurriedly took out a few boxes of rouge from the counter and introduced, "Miss, these are the new ones in our store." The quality of the imported goods is also the best, why don’t you, Miss, try it first?”
Jiang Mei saw that the packaging of those boxes of rouge were all white glazed porcelain bottles. She couldn't help but feel excited and said, "Then I'll give it a try."
The waiter opened a box and immediately smelled the fragrance of flowers. Jiang Mei put a little of it on the back of her hand and felt the texture was delicate and comfortable. The waiter opened the other two boxes. Jiang Mei tried them one by one and liked them all, so she asked Su Qing, "Cousin, I think these boxes are good. Which one do you think I should choose?"
Su Qing had never been interested in rouge and gouache, so she said, "Since my cousin likes them all, let's buy them all." Before Jiang Mei could say anything, the waiter in the store said, "Miss, our product just arrived yesterday. It's the New Year now." Festival, this kind of high-quality goods are in short supply. If you miss these floral rouges, you will have to wait until next month."
When Jiang Mei heard this, she quickly said, "Then I want these three boxes. By the way, how much does one box cost?"
"Two taels of silver per box." The waiter said with a smile.
Jiang Mei had no expression on her face after hearing this, but she took a breath of cold air in her heart. The best rouge she used in Jiang's family was only 500 yuan per box, and the price of this box was as much as her four boxes. She didn't bring much money when she went out this time, but the texture of this rouge was indeed much better than what she used. Thinking of Suri's handsome face again, Jiang Mei gritted her teeth and said, "I want all three boxes, wrap them up."
"Come on! I'll wrap it up for you right away. Do you need anything else?" the waiter asked.
"No need." Jiang Mei said immediately. These three boxes of rouge cost her six taels of silver, and her heart ached.
At this time, Su Qing said, "My cousin, just buy whatever you need. I'll treat you this time."
Jiang Mei was stunned, her heart suddenly stopped hurting, and she pretended to be polite and said, "That's so embarrassing."
Su Qing smiled at her and said, "It doesn't matter. If my cousin needs anything else, just pick it up."
Jiang Mei was not polite and chose two more boxes of facial oil and two boxes of hair oil. In the end, a total of ten taels of silver was spent. Su Qing nodded towards Qingzhu, who took out ten taels of silver from his purse and handed it to the waiter. The waiter took the money, nodded and bowed and sent the person to the door, not forgetting to say "Welcome to come back next time!"
