Jin Tingjiao

Chapter 135
Shen Xi's eyes were glued to the blood jade bracelet.

This blood jade bracelet belongs to the Xiao family!

On Xiao's 35th birthday, she traveled all over the city to find such a bracelet that suits her as a birthday gift.

Only three of these bracelets could be found in the entire Great Qin!

But the longevity instrument she gave to Xiao Shi, now appeared in Wen Chan's hands!
Originally calm and composed, she just treated it as an ordinary visit, but when she saw this bracelet, her blood froze in an instant.

Was it Wen Chan who took it off her body after Xiao accompanied Zhang Yu and the others to the south and died, or did Xiao die before the country was overthrown, and before that, Wen plundered it in private? !

But no matter what it is, it can't compete with the fact that this bracelet is her mother's relic!
And since the bracelet is in her hands, after the Zhang family went south, the rest of the family property should also fall into her hands.

Wen Chan was waiting for her to come forward, but seeing her staring at his wrist without moving, he couldn't help but look at her with frowning eyes.

Shen Xi raised his lips, walked up to her and said: "Because I saw the exquisite workmanship of the peony embroidery on the old lady's sleeve, I saw it unconsciously."

Wen Chan didn't say a word, but looked directly into her eyes.

But her eyes were clear, as if there was no trace of impurities, and she didn't look like she was lying.

The moment we looked at her before, she almost doubted that she had met someone she knew, but now it looked like she was just a calm and calm girl of her age.

She smiled and said: "The half-worn shirt, no matter how beautiful the embroidery is, I have to throw it away."

Shen Xidao: "The clothes are old, but the workmanship is not old. The old lady is a really particular person. Where is the material of the clothes? It is clearly the workmanship."

When Wen Chan heard this, she felt pleasant.

She smiled and said, "What a beautiful child."

Han Ning walked over with a smile: "That's all right now, the old lady finds us annoying when she sees the cute one."

Song Jiao also looked at Shen Xi, her reticence always seemed too deep, but at the same time it made her bright and beautiful not so ostentatious.

And Han Min was sitting on the side, holding the candied fruit on the plate in his hand, with a hint of disapproval, he looked at Shen Xi with a half-smile and kept looking up and down.

Wen Chan looked at Shen Xi with a smile: "Sit down, it's so tiring to stand." A maid came up beside her.

Shen Xi sat down next to the edge, took the box in Pearl's hand and handed it over: "This time I took the liberty to come here because I didn't know the old lady had heard about it, so I didn't prepare any gifts in advance.

"There are only a few small things that I brought with me, and I don't know if the old lady will appreciate it."

Wen Chan's eyes fell on her hand.

When she received it in her hand, before the incense box was opened, the familiar magnolia fragrance floated into her nostrils with the wind. She moved slightly in her heart and opened the box. It was the same as last time, and it was the dumpling incense made of pure flowers and spices.

"Very good." She nodded, looked up at her, and said, "You don't know where you learned your skills?"

Shen Xi had expected that she would ask a question.

"Don't dare to hide from the old lady, this skill was passed down from my mother."

"Lingtang?" Wen Chan frowned.

"Exactly." Shen Xi looked directly at her, "My mother learned it from others when she was young, but I don't know who I learned it from."

Her real mother is Xiao Shi, who is also the owner of the blood jade bracelet on her wrist.Doesn't that count as lying?

Wen Chan nodded, and asked again: "I don't know where your grandfather's family is?"

She smiled and said, "It's a squire from Jinzhong."

The Hu family has long been turned into dust, and even if she went to investigate, she could find nothing.

"So that's the case." Wen Chan smiled.

Such a good fragrance, she has seen the most in the Zhang family.To be more precise, it was Zhang Ying who saw the most.

Zhang Ying is better than her in everything, making incense better than her, making female celebrities better than her, reading more books than her, and being better at rhythm appreciation.

She is better than her in everything, because she has lived in the Zhang family with superior conditions since she was a child!

She can easily suppress her with any ability. The only thing Wen Chan is slightly better than her is her appearance.

But her appearance is not absolutely superior to her, at least in the eyes of those people who surround Zhang Ying, she can't compare to her no matter what.

The Zhang family didn't have any relatives in Jinzhong, when they went south with their whole family in the past, they also took a detour to the East China Sea, and the female family members never went to the southwest and northwest.

It is obviously impossible for the Hu family to obtain this skill from the women of the Zhang family.

In addition, since she has learned the craft since she was young, it is even more impossible to get it from the Zhang family.

Thinking of the Zhang family, she couldn't help shaking her head.

It has been another 12 years since Zhang Ying died, and the Zhang family has gradually died out in the 38 years since then.

Judging by Hu's age, when she was young, she was still dominated by Helian people.

There are footprints of Helian nobles everywhere in the world, and it is very possible that she came from other noble families.

At that time, although not all the ladies of Helian's noble family were as delicate as Miss Zhang's, making incense and rouge and tasting homework were compulsory courses for noble ladies.

She immediately thought of Zhang Ying because of a box of incense, she really thought too much.

No matter how strong Zhang Ying is, wouldn't she have already turned into ashes?
Thinking of this, she felt relieved.

Looking at Shen Xi again, his face became more relaxed.

Focusing on the decoration of her clothes, she saw a pair of peonies embroidered on the handkerchief in her hand, so she couldn't help asking: "You embroidered these peonies yourself?"

She loves peony the most in her life, because peony is the king of flowers.

She also loves the highest jade, the purest gold, and the highest glory life, just because they are the best.

She wants, of course, the best.

So what she wore was red gold, beautiful jade and peonies everywhere. The peony composition on Shen Xi's handkerchief was very unique, and the embroidery was also extremely delicate, which instantly caught her attention.

"Exactly." Shen Xi said, "It's just that my handwork is clumsy, and I'm afraid I'll make the girls laugh at me."

As she said that, she took the two fans from Pearl's hand, and handed them to her: "I embroidered it myself, so don't be disgusted by the old lady."

Wen Chan looked at the fan. It was also covered with peonies, and the stitches were so fine that almost no traces could be seen, and the color transition was very natural, so she couldn't help but pay attention to it.

Women of the Tuoba tribe rarely see such meticulous embroidery.

No no, even if it is placed in Helian's nobles, it is still called very good!

This girl in front of her has such a good skill?

Here she probed into Shen Xi's details, but Shen Xi also looked at her calmly.

Who would have thought that in a blink of an eye, the Zhang family's "Miss Cousin", who was famous for her looks in the past, has now become an old woman.

Over the past 50 years, she has become more stylish and more like a real lady, but the more impeccable she frames herself, the more she reveals her lack of heart.
