Chapter 3 Buying Dowry

Chapter 3 Buying Dowry
"Uncomfortable?" Qian was anxious. "Why is it uncomfortable? Tell my mother!"

Seeing that Qian Shi was so worried about her, Zhuo Nan couldn't be more moved. "Mother, I just want to go back to the house and lie down for a while, it's fine."

Qian frowned. "If you feel uncomfortable, go back to the house and lie down. I won't go to the market today, and it's not too late to go tomorrow. And don't cook or cook in the future. My mother has spoiled you since she was a child, and you won't be in the way of anyone's eyes! "

Qian thought that someone was gossiping about her daughter in front of her. "The merchant is a wealthy landowner. There is no shortage of maids and servants in the family. Why do you need to cook the fire yourself? Although Shang Hua's family has a large population, there are three brothers and two sisters at the top, and a younger sister at the bottom, but Shang Hua is in charge of the house. After you get married, as long as you win over his heart, no one in the whole business will dare to bully you and let you walk sideways, remember?"

Walk sideways?She is not a crab. "Yeah." Zhuo Nan smiled and nodded.Some curiously asked; "Mother, why is it Shanghua's master?"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Qian raised the corners of her mouth complacently. "As a mother, I will show you your husband and son-in-law. Naturally, you will choose the best one. Shang Hua's eldest brother and second brother are all determined to obtain fame, but only the second brother has passed the examination of a scholar. The third brother is in business like Shang Hua, tsk tsk tsk, It's a pity that it's not this material! You will pay for what you do!"

He raised an eyebrow at his daughter. "Old man Shang only cares about those aunts and concubines who surround him all day long, and the entire business is supported by Shang Hua alone. Whoever has money is the master of the house, understand?"

Zhuo Nan; "..."

"Okay, isn't it uncomfortable? Go back to the room and lie down, lazy girl."

The next day, Zhuo Nan slept until Qian and his sister-in-law made breakfast before waking her up.

Zhuo Nan lazily got up and dressed, and left after listening to Qian Shi laughed and scolded her as a lazy girl, her heart was bubbling with happiness.

After breakfast, Qian changed into clean clothes without patches, and walked Zhuo Nan to the market.

This village is only five or six miles away from the bustling capital city, less than a quarter of an hour's walk away.

After entering the city gate and walking through the streets, Zhuo Nan looked at the familiar hawkers on both sides of the street, his eyes filled with hope.

Mrs. Qian pulled her through all kinds of people, and went straight to the shop selling rouge and gouache.

Zhuo Nan stood on the side in a polite manner, watching the sturdy Qian single-handedly confronting the manager and the buddy, fighting with each other, and bought what she wanted at a very low price.

After leaving the makeup shop, he turned around and was dragged into a jewelry shop by Qian Shi.

The store clerk saw a country peasant woman who came in, and his attitude was not very enthusiastic.However, she suddenly caught a glimpse of Zhuo Nan who came in right behind Qian. She was a charming young girl in her prime of life. Even the coarse cotton clothes could not hide her beauty, so she immediately stood up and greeted her warmly.

A plate of jewelry was brought out from the counter, and all of them were placed on the counter for them to choose.

Qian swept across the jewelry displayed on the counter, all of which were covered with silver, and raised her head displeased with a frown. "Dude, is there any better jewelry?"

The shop assistant's eyes circled Zhuo Nan's peachy face, and then he looked at Qian with a smile on his face. "Yes, just wait a moment." From the inside of the counter, a plate full of gold-coated jewelry was brought out.

Qian picked out a plum blossom hairpin, looked at it carefully, and asked, "Is this pure gold?"

The store clerk was stunned for a moment, looked at Qian's clothes, and said contemptuously: "No, it's covered with gold, but it's not cheap. The one you're holding is exquisite in workmanship, and the plum blossoms are lifelike, at least it's worth this amount." !” Stretched out his palm and made a gesture.

Qian casually threw the plum blossom hairpin into the jewelry pile. "I want pure gold."

"Pure gold?!" The store clerk stared at Qian with wide eyes.Even these gold-covered jewellery, she, a rural person dressed as a peasant woman, may not be able to afford it, and she even boasted that she wanted pure gold jewelry in Haikou!

"What! How dare you look down on people!" Qian's fierce slap was slapped on the counter, and the jewelry on the wooden plate jumped up.

The guy was startled and couldn't help taking a step back.Keep your eyes on Qian Shi, okay!The country woman is unreasonable and arrogant! "We also have expensive jewelry in our shop, just wait!" When he takes it out and the other party can't afford it, humiliate her again!
Zhuo Nan watched the clerk pull down the key from his waist, squatted down, and turned around to unlock the innermost lock of the counter.He stretched out his hand and pulled Qian Shi aside, and whispered, "Mother, what are you doing with a guy like him? Let's go."

"Why are you going? Your mother, I have money!" Then, out of the corner of her eye, she saw that the waiter had turned around, holding a plate of gold jewelry, carefully placing it on the counter, and she grabbed Zhuo Nan and walked over.

Finally, Qian chose a pure gold hairpin without any carvings, and a gold bracelet carved with flowers and branches on the surface. The parcel dragged Zhuo Nan out of the store.

As soon as he walked out, Zhuo Nan dragged Qian Shi aside. "Mother! How can you buy such expensive jewelry? You have emptied your family because of me. When you go back, the elder sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law should have a fight! And the fourth sister-in-law will get married in a few years, and you have to dowry! Let's change hands quickly." , sell it to another jewelry shop!" Pulling Qian, she was about to go to another shop to sell the jewelry she just bought.

Seeing that her daughter was coming for real, Qian hurriedly shook off her hand, also anxious. "Mother didn't empty out the family's wealth! This is for Mother to help you save it from when you were a child until now!"

As soon as these words came out, Zhuo Nan fell silent.

She suddenly remembered that in her previous life, after visiting the rouge and gouache shop with Qian Shi, she was tied back by Zhuo Ziao before entering the jewelry shop.

When the Prime Minister's wife rescued her, she had a weird expression when she saw her, as if she was very excited, but she still sent her away with Mrs. Qian.

A few days later, the Prime Minister did not know where he learned the truth. When his first daughter was born, his wife replaced her with a baby boy of unknown origin.As an adopted daughter, he sent someone to take her back to the prime minister's mansion and put her in foster care under the name of his biological mother, the prime minister's wife, but deliberately and cruelly told her the truth.

The prime minister's wife begged her forgiveness.Lihua told her with rain that the maid who was close to her accidentally lost her. She was worried that the prime minister would blame her, so she made an irreparable mistake and replaced her with Zhuo Ziao.

Later, after many twists and turns, they found out her whereabouts, but they dared not recognize her.

Every year, she will send a personal nurse to secretly send a sum of money to the Qian family, just because she is afraid that her adoptive parents will treat her badly!

So she took it for granted that Qian's love of money must have given the money to greedy ink!

Treating her like a jewel like a treasure is also for the sake of money!
But now, Qian Shi spends all the money on buying her dowry...

Seeing that her daughter had stopped talking, Mrs. Qian was startled.It's over, she said she slipped her tongue!Both she and old man Zhuo are rural people who make a living by farming, even if they want to save a dowry for their daughter since she was a child, it is impossible to get so much money all at once!

What's more, she is not only Zhuo Nan's daughter, but also has Siya in her family!
Guiltyly peeking at Zhuo Nan's expression, Qian was afraid that she would suddenly ask; "Mother, where did our family get so much extra money for you to save?" '
