When did the brother collapse [Transmigration Book]

Hello my daughter! "

Nobody cares.

Chen Zhishuo clicked his tongue twice in his heart.

If they hadn't met them, the younger sister of the Hu family would have died in the Zhou Mansion for no apparent reason, and would eventually become the talk of others after dinner.

This is a corner door in the backyard, and there are not many people coming and going on weekdays.There was no one around, so Chen Zhisuo was less troubled.He passed a big tree in the image of the Hu family's mother, and when he came out, he had changed back to his original self.

With some time left, he decided to go to a professional to verify his guess first.

Diancui Pavilion's business is booming this month, and many customers spend a lot of money every day.

Today is a little different.

Among the Yingying Yanyans who were choosing jewelry, there was an extra jade-faced gentleman standing in the middle of the shop at a loss, with a distressed expression on his face, and he didn't know who to turn to for help.

As soon as this gentleman entered the shop, the shopkeeper of Diancui Pavilion noticed him.Firstly, most of Diancui Pavilion's guests are female, and secondly, this gentleman is too handsome, he attracted attention from all directions as soon as he appeared.

The bold female guest covered her face with a fan and stared openly, while the timid one lowered her head and couldn't help sneaking a peek at him from the corner of her eye.

The shopkeeper reckoned that if he didn't show up again, this gentleman would be the first to die of shame, so he hurried up to greet him: "My lord, what do you want to see?"

Chen Zhishuo carefully took out an earring and handed it to the shopkeeper: "Please help me to see, did you buy this earring here?"

He didn't know anything about jewelry, and he didn't know whether jewelry in this world could be mass-produced like it is in modern times. He was worried that he would be wrong, so he simply found a vague reason.

The shopkeeper did not doubt that he was there, took the earring, examined it carefully, and replied, "Master, this earring is a popular style recently, and several stores sell it. These earrings are made of pearls. Judging by the size and color, to be honest. It's not too expensive, even if we sell it in Diancui Pavilion, it won't bear the mark of our Diancui Pavilion."

Chen Zhishuo pretended to breathe a sigh of relief when he heard that, "That's great."

Seeing that the shopkeeper was puzzled, he slowly told the lie he made up: "I accidentally broke one of my wife's earrings today, so I was wondering if I could find a similar pair. Do you have any in your store?"

As soon as these words came out, there were many unwilling sighs around.

The shopkeeper saw that he was well-dressed, and responded with a smile: "Yes, yes. Please wait a moment, young master."

"Wait," Chen Zhishuo didn't dare to take out the golden hairpin in public, and made another excuse, "You said these earrings are not expensive, so can you introduce me to some more expensive jewelry?"

The shopkeeper only thought that he cherished his wife, and nodded quickly: "Young master, please wait in the private room for a while, and I will send someone to pick it up."

Chen Zhishuo was sitting in the private room, smelling the fragrant tea, but lacked interest.

The shopkeeper quickly led a few people in, each holding a wooden tray, on which was a complete set of heads made of emerald, white jade, gold, etc. Most of them were peonies, peonies and other famous flower patterns, which were very rich.

Chen Zhishuo reluctantly looked at the first few, shook his head and said, "My nephew is good-looking, looks like a fairy, and has a noble nature. These vulgar things can't match his appearance."

"These are the styles that are most popular with distinguished customers." The shopkeeper said with a smile, "I was thinking about it, so I'll ask someone to change the batch."

"Wait," Chen Zhishuo caught the Moyu pendant with a glance, "This is not bad."

Moyu is the size of a palm, smooth and shining, the whole body is pitch black, with only one flocculent red spot.The craftsman took advantage of it and carved a majestic beast with the red catkins as eyes.

The shopkeeper glanced at the boy reproachfully, and explained: "Young master, this unicorn pendant is worn by men, and it got in by accident, please Haihan."

Was it a unicorn?

Chen Zhishuo immediately dismissed the idea of ​​buying it as a gift to Lu Li, and turned his gaze from the pendant to the shopkeeper: "I want to see more ones to wear on my head. If my wife likes it, I will be happy to see it every day."

The shopkeeper flattered him again and again, praising him for loving his wife so much that he hurriedly ordered someone to fetch it again.

"Tsk." Chen Zhishuo just shook his head as he looked at the dazzling array of Buyao, Huasheng, Zanji, and Huatian in front of him.

The shopkeeper accompanied him and watched: "Young Master, are you not satisfied?"

The corner of Chen Zhishuo's mouth turned up, as if thinking of something interesting: "It's not as good as my wife's favorite hairpin."

Diancui Pavilion is a top-notch jewelry store in Wuyou City. The products they create are not only cute, but also very popular, and they have even paid tribute to the royal family for many years.

Seeing that Chen Zhishuo looked down on his own shop, the shopkeeper held his breath and asked, "May I ask what kind of hairpin you want, my lord?"

Chen Zhishuo was waiting for this opportunity.

He took out the golden hairpin from his pocket and handed it to the shopkeeper: "I was afraid I wouldn't understand, so I just took it with me. Take a look, is there anything comparable to this golden hairpin in your shop?"

The shopkeeper took the golden hairpin with both hands, tasted it carefully, and couldn't help but take a deep breath: "This hairpin, let alone the Cui Pavilion, if you look at the entire Wuyou City, no one can make it."

I really came to the right place!

Chen Zhishuo became interested and asked, "Why? I see that you also have gold jewelry with rubies embedded in your shop."

The shopkeeper winked, told everyone else to go down, and closed the door himself, then explained to Chen Zhishuo in a low voice: "It's different. This golden hairpin was forged by the secret method of the previous dynasty, and the craftsmanship was lost due to the war. And this Phoenix, the most expensive thing is not the ruby, but the feathers on the tail. You see, it takes skilled craftsmen three months to polish the emerald emeralds. And look at the texture, the delicacy, there are no more than eight gold hairpins. The month cannot be completed!"

"I see." Chen Zhisuo's surprise was not feigned, he really did not expect that a small gold hairpin would take more than half a year, "No wonder my wife likes it so much."

"Being able to get this golden hairpin is also fate. In my humble opinion, this hairpin should be an old item from the court of the previous dynasty. , see you soon."

Old things from the court?

This sentence immediately inspired Chen Zhishuo - such a precious gold hairpin from the previous dynasty was casually packed in a small dressing box with other popular and not too expensive jewelry of the season, and there must be articles in it.

He was very happy when he got the clue. Apart from the earrings he bought for Yuan Li, he finally couldn't resist buying the unicorn pendant——

It's really suitable for Lu Li, if you can't give him away, then you can keep it secretly.

Coming out of Diancui Pavilion, Chen Zhishuo made a detour, came to the gate of Zhou Mansion, and swaggered straight for the gate.

The guard at the door saw his face, and immediately stepped forward to stop him: "Today, my young master has a wedding, may I ask if you have any invitations?"

"There is no invitation card." Chen Zhishuo saw that they were going to make a move, and added, "Please also tell your master for me, Chen Zhishuo, the head disciple of the elder of the Jade Market Gate Mirror Holder, watched the stars at night and found that your family is in great trouble."

Although the family servant didn't know who the Elder Zhijing of the Yuxu Gate was, but seeing Chen Zhishuo's jade crown and bright starry eyes, he was more temperamental than the immortal head of Yong'an Academy in his house, so he didn't dare to neglect him.One ran in to report the news, and the other invited him to sit in the room behind the gate.

Zhou Shichang, the master of the Zhou Mansion, is well-informed and has heard of the name of the elder of the Yuxu Gate Mirror Holder from his friends in the imperial capital.The Zhou Mansion was in troubled times. I heard that there was a monk claiming to be the head disciple of the Elder Holding the Mirror, and the Zhou family was in danger, so no matter if it was true or not, he had to see him first.

Chen Zhishuo was respectfully welcomed to the main hall, where Zhou Shichang had already been waiting, and stood up to salute: "Dare to ask the immortal chief for his name."

Chen Zhishuo imitated Lu Li's posture and said flatly, "You and I are not meant to be together, so you don't need to know my name."

Zhou Shichang was deflated, but not angry.He saw that Chen Zhisuo didn't seem to have a polite temper, so he asked straight to the point: "The Immortal said that my family is going to be in disaster, but where did the disaster come from?"

Chen Zhishuo stared at him, and slowly spit out a few words: "The disaster of the previous dynasty."

"The former court?" Zhou Shichang frowned, "How did my family get involved with the former court?"

Chen Zhishuo saw that his confusion did not seem to be fake, and wondered in his heart: Could it be that Zhou Shichang didn't know about it?

He has not completely dispelled his doubts, and continues to probe: "The times change, the soul reincarnates, who can tell?"

For Zhou Shichang to be the richest man in Worry-free City, knowledge, skill and skills are all indispensable.

He heard what Chen Zhishuo said seemed to be profound, but in fact it was vague, so he asked directly: "I would like to ask the elder to clarify, what is the disaster of my Zhou family?"

27. Bewitched ([-])

◎Detaining souls and offering sacrifices (the original name of the supporting role was changed by Koukou)◎

If it was a fake Taoist priest who was cheated and abducted, and Zhou Shichang asked him to the point, even if he didn't reveal his truth, he would appear flustered to some extent.

But Chen Zhisuo was different, he came prepared, as long as Zhou Shichang became curious about him, no matter whether it was good or bad, half the battle would be considered successful.

Facing a shrewd businessman like Zhou Shichang, if he followed his words and temporarily filled his logical loopholes, it would only make him distrust himself even more.

Chen Zhishuo admitted generously: "Astrology shows great power, and divination asks for good luck. I watched the astrology at night, and calculated that someone in Wuyou City had an accident. After entering the city, I heard about your family. If you don't believe me, then I will You don't have to stay here any longer."

His generous attitude made Zhou Shichang feel that he could continue to listen, so he asked, "Excuse me, how can I cure my son?"

Chen Zhisuo was waiting for his words: "I heard that your son is bewitched. I have to see it with my own eyes to make a conclusion."

It's okay to let him meet.

Thinking of this, Zhou Shichang personally led Chen Zhishuo to the backyard.

Zhou Mansion covers an area of ​​nearly [-] mu, divided into East Court, Middle Court and West Court.After Zhou Tingmao was bewitched by evil spirits, he often lived in the Songfeng Building in the southeast corner of the East Courtyard, which was far away from the West Courtyard where the bride lived.

Looking at the distance between the two places, the Zhou Mansion made it clear that they did not intend to allow the bride and groom to worship and get married.

The first six brides were married in for joy
