The fourteenth blessing of the koi carp in the Qing Dynasty

"My lord, what do you want?" Seeing Yinzhen wandering around, the manager on the second floor's eyes lit up.Big deal, working in this place, he has already developed a pair of discerning eyes. He can tell at a glance who is coming to see the fun and who has the ability to afford the things inside.

Gently tapping on the table with his fingers, Yinzhen raised his eyelids and glanced at him, "Take out your best lady's pocket watch and let me have a look, it's the best." He told Brother Jiu that he only brought 1 taels of silver , In fact, I brought 5 taels, which may not be enough.

"Wait a minute, I'll be here right away." The manager didn't ask him why he bought a lady's pocket watch, it was just for his mother, daughter-in-law, and concubine.This master opened his mouth to ask for the best, which means that he is not short of money, it is good that he is not short of money, they like this kind of master who is not short of money.

The steward was quick and quick, and brought several ladies' pocket watches in a short while. "Look, my lord, these are all shipped from the west. The rubies inlaid on this real gold are very popular among ladies and ladies; this is said to be the latest product, what is it called enamel color, hehe, the small one is Rough people don't understand their knowledge anyway, this watch is also liked by many young ladies."

Yinzhen glanced at the steward in disgust, forget about the first item, what is the second item, if he dares to send this item to the Earl's Mansion, he might be typed out.

There is nothing on the outside of the enamel pocket watch. When it is opened, there is a painting inside, a Western watercolor painting.As a prince, Yinzhen has been in contact with it since he was a child, and when he is in a good mood, he will draw a few strokes by himself.He does not reject Western paintings, the key is that the people in the pocket watch are not wearing any clothes.If she, Fujin, went out with such a watch, what would others think of her?

But this ruby ​​looked good, he picked it up and looked at it carefully, the more he looked, the more satisfied he became. "Wrap this up for Grandpa." He raised his head as he spoke, "Do you have any other Western gadgets here? Do you have a kaleidoscope and a Western clock? Wrap them up too."

He remembered that Eighth Sister-in-law had a kaleidoscope, and that Eighth Sister-in-law had shown it off to them back then, which made Xiao Shiliu and the others envious for a while.

Sister-in-law Ba is the most capable of flattering highs and lows. When Brother Nine got married, Sister-in-law Eight secretly ran on Sister-in-law Nine, saying that her grand daughter didn't even have a single foreign gadget, so Sister-in-law Nine couldn't get down on the spot.That is to say, now when she sees Sister-in-law Nine, Sister-in-law Fifth and others, she will also be very angry.

Yinzhen really didn't understand what the eighth sister-in-law could be proud of. To put it nicely, she was the granddaughter of Prince An. It's not that Prince An didn't have a granddaughter, and she didn't have enough family history.To put it bluntly, she is the daughter of the most courtier whose parents both died.

Just because he is following mynah doesn't mean he supports mynah.

Later, he would find more rare and precious things and send them to the Earl's mansion, and wait until the big wedding to see who would dare to look down on him, Fujin.

With more than [-] taels on hand, Yinzhen was so confident that he didn't blink his eyes when he said this.

The steward's face was full of smiles, "Yes, yes, please don't worry, the little one will wrap it up for you right away."

"Pack up your things and send them upstairs to Room No. [-] in Tianzi." This room is an appointment he made with Brother Jiu and the others, and it is also the private room that Brother Jiu often uses.

The steward was stunned for a moment, then bowed and saluted, "Oh, my little eyesight, I don't know who you are?" Unexpectedly, it was for the emperor's elder brother, so the steward hurriedly bowed to Yinzhen, fearing that the other party would blame him He lost his manners.

There are only three rooms in the Tianzi Room, all of which are reserved for the princes.

Yinzhen waved his hand as a response, and turned around to go to the third floor.

After carefully selecting two sets of jewelry, when Yinzhen was about to leave, he suddenly found a red light flashing in front of him.Turning his head, he realized that it was actually a pair of jade pendants.

These are a pair of fish-shaped jade pendants. The body of the carp is bright red, and the eyes and tail are actually golden.

Can't help touching the carp sachet on his body, his Fujin seems to have a special liking for fish, he likes this pair of jade pendants, and Fujin will definitely like it too.

"Give me a pair of jade pendants like that."

The shopkeeper glanced over there, and smiled embarrassedly, "My lord, there are quite a few carp jade pendant shops, and that customer only has that pair in our store." Red jade books are rare, let alone It is a naturally formed two-color carp.

there is none left?

Seeing that man's expression of embarrassment, it must be because of lack of money, imagining Foer Guochun's joy of receiving the jade pendant in his mind, Yinzhen walked over. "Do you want this jade pendant? If not, I will." In a good mood, Yinzhen rarely asked the man patiently.

A Chuhui raised his head to look at the shopkeeper, and then at Yinzhen.The shopkeeper had a look of disdain, almost putting the word "poor ghost" on his face.Compared with him, the boy's expression made him feel much more comfortable.

Gritting his teeth, A Chuhui said: "Shopkeeper, can you make it cheaper? My sister is getting married soon, this jade pendant"

The shopkeeper rudely interrupted A Chuhui, and he rolled his eyes, "What does your sister's marriage have to do with me? It's not me. 2000 is the same price. Buy it or not, please get out of the way if you don't buy it." .”

A pair of jade pendants cost 2000 taels. I have to say that the shopkeeper is quite evil.He found Yinzhen as a big employer, otherwise Ah Chu might have won it for 500 taels.

Turning around, he held the jade pendant in front of Yinzhen, "My lord, your jade pendant." These shopkeepers will get a share of everything they sell, and at least 2000 taels of 20 taels of jade pendants will fall into his hands.He saw it, just now Yinzhen bought nearly [-] taels of jewelry, but he hated that he ran too slowly just now and someone else took the lead, otherwise the share would be his own.

The pair of jade pendants are very small, and the two fish are lifelike. He found that the jade pendants can be worn alone or together.When two fish are brought together end to end, they are kissing each other.

Yinzhen's face was a little hot, and he coughed lightly, "I'm sorry, brother. This jade pendant wife likes it very much, forgive me." Turning to look at the shopkeeper who flattered him, Yinzhen was expressionless, "Bao Get up." Yinzhen doesn't have a good impression of this kind of snob who looks down on others, and he won't give them a good face.

Ah Chu waved his heart to be unwilling, who let him not have so much money, so he could only go home with a stinky face.

Everyone in the family knows that my sister likes fish, especially koi fish.They opened a special fish pond in Shengjing's mansion, which is full of various fish raised by their sister.

My sister's wedding is coming soon, so A Chuhui wanted to pick a gift for her.He heard people say that the things in Huiyanju are the best, so he went out of the city to buy them, how could he know that the things here are so expensive.

As the concubine's young master of the Earl's Mansion, Ah Chuhui's monthly payment is only five taels of silver.He is now a white man again, without a royal salary.In addition to the monthly rewards accumulated over the years, it was the silver reward Mulan got from hunting with his Ama.

The money added up was only a thousand taels of silver. I thought I could buy a lot of things for my sister, but unexpectedly I couldn't afford even a small jade pendant.

A Chuhui felt that he was useless and didn't even eat lunch.

After lunch, Foer Guochun asked his servants to look for A Chuhui with the food. "Third Brother, are you in the house? I'll come in."

"Why is sister here?" Ah Chu waved to watch the door for his sister, and asked in a buzzing voice.

Seeing that the third brother's complexion was not good, Foer Guochun stretched out his hand to take the food and put it on the table, "Emiang saw that you didn't go to eat, so she specially ordered the kitchen to make another portion for you. I happened to finish eating, so I followed the girl to see Look at you. Third brother, don't worry about what you have to do."

A Chuhui felt a little guilty, he lowered his head, "It's okay, I just feel that I'm useless." My sister is so nice, yet he couldn't give her a satisfactory gift, he is not a good brother.

"No, the third brother is good at martial arts. In Shengjing, many people who are older than the third brother are not the third brother's opponent. Ama also said that the third brother will definitely be the champion of martial arts next year. The second brother also won a prize." Tanhua, third brother, do you think you are better than second brother?"

I'm sorry second brother, in order to cheer up third brother, my little sister had no choice but to belittle you. In fact, in my little sister's heart, you are also super powerful.

Fol Guochun said silently in his heart.

Ah Chu waved his mouth, and finally said what happened today. He was annoyed as he said, "I thought 1000 taels of silver was a lot, but I didn't know that I couldn't afford a pair of jade pendants." Then he wanted to give it to his sister. Wouldn't it be more difficult to buy something.

Unexpectedly, it was because of himself, Foer Guochun took the third brother's hand, and said sincerely: "Why did the third brother say that? I think it's because they want a lot of money out of their hearts." His eyes rolled around, revealing a sly look. With a smile, she whispered something in A Chuhui's ear.

"Really?"

Foer Guochun nodded, "Of course, the second brother will have a rest in the future, why don't we go together."

As soon as the two brothers and sisters reached an agreement, a girl came over, "Ge Ge, the third young master, there is a distinguished guest in the front yard, Madam said to let the third young master go out to accompany the guests, and asked Ge Ge to dress up to greet the guests."

The two brothers and sisters looked at each other, honored guest?Who will come to their house?Most of the clansmen are in Shengjing, and there is only the uncle's family in the capital, and the relationship between the two families is not too close.

Ah Chu waved his hand to wipe his mouth, "You go and tell Er Niang, I'll go right away." Others thought that Ah Chu Hui was out of his mind, but in fact he was very reliable at critical moments.

Let him go to accompany the guest, which means that it is a male guest, but let the younger sister go to pay his respects, Ah Chu frowned, the one who can't come is the emperor, right?

His younger sister is the future prince Fujin, and the only ones who can pay her respects are some people from the royal family and clan.Even if the clan's Fu Guogong and Zhen Guogong come, they don't necessarily need their sister to pay their respects.

The two siblings were at a loss, and then walked to the front yard together.

"It's you," A Chuhui saw at a glance that the young man sitting at the top was the one who 'robbed' the jade pendant from him today, and his expression fell instantly.

Foer Guochun stretched out her hand to tug at the hem of his clothes, she looked at the man curiously.

The visitor was handsome and slender, about the same age as her, but he was born with an air of nobility.Sitting on the head of Er Niang again, I am afraid that the third brother is right, could it be the elder brother of some family.

"Greetings to Er Niang." Concentrating their minds, the two brothers and sisters greeted their Er Niang first.

Jue Luoshi called the two of them to her, and she had a complicated expression on her face, "This is the Fourteenth Lord, you go and say hello to the Fourteenth Lord." After the marriage decree was issued, the Fourteenth Brother did not come over for several months. Meeting someone unexpectedly, even frightened her.

Master Fourteen?Fourteenth brother!

Fur Guochun opened his eyes wide.
