Chapter 64

Su Chengrui said again, "Please trouble me to make a pearl hairpin for me. If you need any materials, just ask me. I will ask Mu Yu to send it to you. As for the reward..."

She paused, and took out a few banknotes from her bosom.

Zhang Liu reached out to take it, glanced at the amount on it inadvertently, and then widened his eyes in disbelief.

"Five... 500 taels?"

Zhang Ning was also surprised when he heard this.

Su Chengrui nodded and said, "This is just a deposit. After the hairpin is made, Su will thank you very much."

500 taels!

They may not be able to save enough for the 500 taels of silver in a lifetime of selling!

Zhang Liu's hand holding the bank note couldn't stop shaking, it was the first time she had seen so much money in her life, and she was actually holding it in her hand.

"Ning'er, touch me to see if I'm dreaming!"

Zhang Liu moved his face closer, almost unable to believe that everything in front of him was real.

Zhang Ning smiled and pushed her face away, "You still ask when all the money is in your hands."

Not to mention how happy Zhang Liu was, he entered the house with the money.

Only then did Zhang Ning turn to look at Su Chengrui, and pointed to a box of pearls on the table, "Miss Su handed over such expensive pearls to us, isn't it afraid that our siblings will run away with the pearls without a word?" road?"

Su Chengrui chuckled, "If I'm afraid, why would I come to you today?"

The Zhang brothers and sisters have no one to rely on, if they really take such a treasure to wander outside, I'm afraid they will only bring them countless troubles and fatal disasters.

This man looks like a person with a delicate mind, so he can't fail to understand this.

After the two discussed the details about the hairpin, Su Chengrui saw that it was late, so he got up to say goodbye and prepare to leave.Zhang Ning got up and sent the two of them outside the courtyard. Just as they were about to get into the carriage, there was an urgent call behind them.

"Miss Su, wait."

Zhang Liu came trotting all the way, and handed over the azalea velvet hairpin in his hand, "I saw this when I was just packing up, I think Mr. Yingyue accidentally left it here and forgot to take it away."

Su Chengrui raised his eyebrows, "Then you leave it to him, tell me what to do?"

Zhang Liu said, "Didn't I just take over your job? I've been helping Ning'er with errands for the past two days. I don't think I'll set up a stall in the city anymore."

Su Chengrui glanced at her when she heard the words, "It's because I've tricked her and I'm too embarrassed to go."

Being told what was on his mind, Zhang Liu scratched his head and smiled in embarrassment.

Su Chengrui took the hairpin and slowly twirled it in his hand, "Actually, the price of something does not necessarily depend on the material. There is a reason why things are expensive. Some sell for their quality, while others sell for their craftsmanship."

"Ah?" Zhang Liu didn't know much about it.

Su Chengrui raised the hairpin, "It's like this pearl hairpin. Although its stamen is not made of real purple cloud stone, Mr. Yingyue still has his eyes on it? It is indeed not worth five taels of silver according to its quality, but If it's your craft, it's worth the price."

"Su...Miss Su..."

Zhang Liutou suddenly didn't know what to say. She loved making these small gadgets since she was a child, because she was always laughed at for being worthless, so she changed to jade carving.

This was the first time other than her younger brother, she was praised so positively, and the joy in her heart made her eyes well up.

Su Chengrui looked at the two of them with a smile and said, "I have a shop selling antiques under my command. If you can help me make the pearl hairpin this time, how about I take you there to work?"

"Really...really?"

The siblings both had disbelief when they heard the words, Zhang Liu pointed at himself, "Miss Su, am I right? You mean we can work with your subordinates in the future?"

Does this mean that they will have a stable job in the future, and they will no longer have to work outside in the wind and sun and rain, and they will no longer have to worry about the days when the last meal is not the next?
"Of course, you put my hairpin on carefully so that I can see your strength! If you are satisfied, I will let you stay and work in my shop." Su Chengrui said and patted Zhang Liu's arm, "Work hard !"

"Alas!" Zhang Liu nodded hastily.

Zhang Ning couldn't hide the joy in his brows and eyes, and said with a blessing in his body, "I will definitely live up to Miss Su's trust."

"Okay, if you need anything, you can come to Mu Yu directly." After saying that, Su Chengrui got into the carriage.

Looking at her leaving back, the Zhang siblings could not calm down for a long time.

It was evening when I returned to Su Mansion.

The man in the moon-white underwear was lying on the table, eating the exquisite pastry on the plate, subconsciously raised his head when he heard the sound of the door being pushed.

Su Chengrui pushed the door open and saw the little guy staring at him blankly with puffed cheeks, he looked exactly like a hamster.

Her gaze couldn't help but soften, she walked over and hugged the man around the waist from behind, and put him on her lap.

Ah Qing exclaimed and was taken aback, the pastry in her hand almost fell to the ground.

Su Chengrui rested her chin on his shoulder and laughed softly.The woman's slightly hoarse voice is like the mellow wine, as lingering as silk, making people ecstatic.

Ah Qing glared at her angrily, and bit the pastry angrily, as if she was holding the hateful woman in front of her.

Su Chengrui turned his head and asked, "Is it delicious?"

"Delicious, do you want to eat it?" Ah Qing said as she handed the half-eaten pastry to her mouth.

The tip of the nose is full of rich sweetness mixed with the faint fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus.

Su Chengrui looked at the jagged pastry in front of her, the edge was still slightly wet, she pursed her lips and smiled, but did not open her mouth.

It seemed that she had already guessed that she would not answer.

Ah Qing simply threw the pastry into her mouth, puffed her cheeks and let out an intoxicated hum, and looked at her proudly with her dark and bright eyes.

Su Chengrui hooked the corners of her lips indifferently, and suddenly stretched out her hand to pinch the back of his neck. While pressing the man's head down to this side, she turned her head and kissed that tender little mouth.

Su Chengrui let go of Ah Qing before he suffocated, his eyes were fixed on his flushed little face, he licked the corner of his mouth, and said with a smile, "It's so sweet."

After finishing the words, she pretended to kiss her again.

The man's eyes dimmed, and he suddenly picked up the teapot on the table and poured it on the woman's head.

The cold tea immediately wiped out the ambiguous atmosphere between the two.

Su Chengrui let go, Ah Qing was out of breath, but sneered and dropped the teapot to the ground.

"Why... oh! Miss, you are..."

Hearing the movement, Xiao Zhong hurriedly opened the door and entered the room. He was startled when he saw Su Chengrui who was drenched all over.

Seeing that her hair and clothes were all wet with a lot of tea leaves hanging on them, seeing the broken teapot on the ground and the strange atmosphere in the room, Xiao Zhong quickly knelt on the ground and dared not ask any more questions.
