Peach Blossom at the Bottom of the Fan

Chapter 100 New Customer

Xue Wanying was angry and hated seeing it, and couldn't help jumping out to blame Gu Sixiao, "You can sell the gold hairpin for ten taels of silver, you're really good at it!"

Literally moved, Gu Sixiao wanted to speak but didn't.On the contrary, Xue Wanhua frowned and said: "Yingying, you were watching all the time just now, how could you be so confused? Yes, that woman only paid two or five dollars, but don't forget that she also left a gold coin What about the hairpin! Although the style of this gold hairpin is outdated and has faded due to age, it is pure gold. As long as it is re-melted and hammered again, it will be a new hairpin. Just add hand money..."

Lowering her eyes, Xue Wanhua lowered her head and thought for a long time, then suddenly raised her head and smiled at Gu Sixiao, "Hua'er, you did a good job just now, try harder..."

I didn't stay any longer, and turned around to greet shopkeeper Wu and Li Chongyang, "I have something to discuss, please refer to me for details..."

Seeing that Xue Wanhua was gone, Xue Wanying stopped suppressing her temper, glared at Gu Sixiao and said bitterly: "You really think you are capable? It's just that woman loves petty gains! Actually, according to my sister's words, that woman I didn't take advantage of it, but I was coaxed by you and lost my money for nothing..."

"Sister, don't talk nonsense, why have I ever coaxed people? Why did the lady lose her money for nothing? Isn't she wearing a golden hairpin? It cost a little money to replace the golden hairpin on her head with the latest one, which is shiny and shiny. Liang, why is it not good? If my sister said this, if others heard it, they might misunderstand that our silver house is not doing business properly. If you want me to say, the lady is tired of wearing this gold hairpin, and she will come back for a new one .”

When Gu Sixiao said this, she suddenly turned her head and looked upstairs.

Could it be that this is what Xue Wanhua wants to discuss? !
The color of gold and silver wares will naturally become dull after a long time. Generally, rich families will specially invite gold shops to finance and remake new wares.

Those small households only have one or two pieces of jewelry, but they can't ask someone to finance it for this, and most of them just wear it like this all the time.

If Xue Ji Yinlou starts trading the old for the new from today, I am afraid that many wives from small families will come to exchange it.

What Gu Sixiao did just now was just a temporary touch, but she didn't expect Xue Wanhua to figure it out immediately. No wonder everyone said that the second wife of Xue's family was good at doing business.

Seeing that Gu Sixiao turned her head to look upstairs, but didn't speak to her, Xue Wanying couldn't help being annoyed, "What are you looking at? Thinking of you as a treasure, Sister Wanhua stares at you all the time and comes to you? Gu Hua'er, don't be complacent, It's just a two-two-five-dollar business, what is it? If I make a move, it will be a big deal..."

Gu Sixiao smiled and didn't answer.

Even if it is Xue Ji Yinlou, it may not have such big customers every day, right?Really big business, big customers, most of them asked Yinlou to bring things to the house to look at.

What Xue Wanhua said just now was actually just to keep Xue Wanying in the silver building and experience it for a few more days.

However, she thought that Xue Wanhua's painstaking efforts would be in vain.

Just thinking about it, someone came in the door.

Because of their betting agreement, it was not easy for a few guys to come forward to solicit business, so Xue Wanying and Gu Sixiao came forward to say hello.

After a few customers, Xue Wanying greeted people very well.

She would have been able to talk, which would put her airs down, which is also pleasing.Although it didn't really become a business, it became more and more like that.

While talking with a plainly dressed woman, a group of people walked in the door.

Xue Wanying turned her eyes and recognized the person. She didn't care about talking to the customer, and immediately turned to meet her, "Mrs. Lin, sister Lin, long time no see..."

Gu Sixiao looked up, but there was a pair of gorgeously dressed mother and daughter, followed by a woman and a girl, obviously rich or noble.

Although he knew that it was a big customer, Gu Sixiao didn't go close to him, but met the woman who was left aside.

"Lady, did you fall in love with this bracelet?"

Being left behind suddenly, the woman was in a daze, and when she heard Gu Sixiao saw her, she laughed, "I still think Xue Ji Yinlou is only doing big business now, not small businesses like ours!"

"How could it be? The lady was joking." Gu Sixiao smiled and didn't continue talking. She just held up the brocade box and asked her to look more carefully, "My lady, look at these pair of gold bracelets. They are carved The dragon and the phoenix show auspiciousness, which means the harmony of the harp and the song, and it would be the best if it is used as a dowry. Moreover, this pair of gold bracelets weighs [-] yuan, no matter who you are marrying, you can have seen it before."

The woman nodded, pointed to another face, and said with a smile, "What about this face? Show it to me."

It was a complete set of hair, with two hairpins, two hairpins, a pair of earrings, and a gold collar.The two butterflies fluttering, take the meaning of the deep love of the butterflies. They are meticulously crafted, not to mention extremely exquisite, and the weight is not light.

If you look at the woman's clothes, you can't afford such a headgear, but Gu Sixiao still took that set of headgear with a smile, held it in front of the woman, and introduced it in detail.

The woman listened seriously, nodding from time to time, and when she heard the end, she smiled and said: "You little lady said it really well. Well, in this way, with that pair of bracelets and this set of head coverings, you and I Send it to Master Wang’s house in Jixiang Lane, and help me choose a few sets of exquisite jewelry, and send them together, as long as you tell the door that it’s Mother Chen who asked to send them to the little lady.”

After the confession was over, she sighed and said in a low voice: "My wife left early, and there is no one to ask for the preparation of the dowry, so I can only let my nanny come forward to pick it."

"Miss, it's hard work," Gu Sixiao said in a low voice, and then said: "Fortunately, my lady, although I don't have a real mother, I still have your help, if not..."

She didn't say any more, but her dejected expression made the woman feel good about her.

Even looking at her eyes softened a little, "When the jewelry is delivered, the little lady will also go. When the time comes, ask my little lady to reward you with more money."

"Thank you so much, lady." Smiling and saluting, Gu Sixiao kept sending people to the door before turning back.

When she turned back, the young man smiled when he saw her, "Miss Gu, you are so crazy! Just the set of gold noodles costs 80 taels of silver, plus the bracelet, at least it costs 100 taels. And the woman also said to choose a few more sets, and if I keep them all by then, I'm afraid it will cost two or three hundred taels of silver. But compared to..."

After speaking halfway, he stopped and turned his head to look upstairs.

Mrs. Lin, mother and daughter, were greeted upstairs by Xue Wanying as soon as they entered.If this deal is made by Xue Wanying, it's still unknown who will win, after all, she hasn't confiscated the money for that deal!

Just as he was thinking, Xiaoyu, the female clerk upstairs, had already run down, and when she saw Gu Sixiao, she said, "The third lady asked you to make tea and bring it up."

Startled, Gu Sixiao almost laughed out loud.

This Xue Wanying is really good at pleasing Mrs. Xue at home, but her tricks are too low.

Isn't it just to remind her not to forget that she was just a girl before?
What is there?What's the use of such a small patting of bricks without pain or itching?
Instead of looking at Xiaoyu who looked anxious, Gu Sixiao responded with a smile, asked where the Ming Stove was, and went to the tea room in the backyard, where she really made a pot of good tea, took some snacks, and served them herself upstairs.

When entering the elegant room, Xue Wanying noticed her immediately, but although she saw her, she deliberately pretended not to see her, and still talked to Madam Lin with a smile, "Madam Lin, look at this bracelet, it is worth thirty coins. It is grand and luxurious, and it is the most important."

When Gu Sixiao approached, she raised her head and said casually: "Let's put it here! You are fine, you are here to serve the lady..."

Gu Sixiao smiled, did not answer, and went to pour tea as expected.

Turning his gaze, he saw that Miss Lin was sitting at the side. Although Xue Wanying and Mrs. Lin were talking happily, she didn't seem to hear it at all. She just sat quietly and didn't even look over there.

This is, dissatisfied with Xue Wanying's recommendation? !

With a blink of his eyes, Gu Sixiao looked this little lady Lin up and down, and saw that the spring shirt she was wearing was high-quality Su silk, and the material was excellent, but the color was light lake green, and there was no hair on her head. The golden hairpin ring or flower comb is just a hosta inserted obliquely.

Just by looking at it, Gu Sixiao knew in her heart that Miss Lin probably didn't like gold and silver, but only loved jade.

Judging by her gentle and quiet appearance, it is likely that she is fond of poetry and books, the kind of noble lady who thinks she is talented, loves elegance, and likes simplicity.

Such a woman...

Lowering her eyes, she unconsciously smiled.

It sounds a bit like the old Gu Sixiao.

Putting down the teacup in her hand, she turned her eyes away and stood up suddenly.

Xue Wanying raised her head and shouted: "I didn't ask you to wait here..."

Seeing that Gu Sixiao was not going out, she closed her voice, but still squinted at her.

Gu Sixiao ignored her, and stood in front of Duobaoge for a while, then turned around and came back.

Sitting short and kneeling beside the little table, she put the box in front of Miss Lin, "Little lady, do you like this one?"

She spoke suddenly, but Miss Lin seemed startled, looked up at her, and then lowered her head.

While she was watching, Xue Wanying also lowered her head to look at it. After only one glance, she said angrily: "Gu Hua'er, what are you doing? You are so bold to show Miss Lin such a thing, when Miss Lin is you The ones I picked up before..."

Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly stopped.

Miss Lin, who didn't move when she was talking, reached out and picked up the box.

Staring wide-eyed, Xue Wanying said in a low voice, "One, a wooden hairpin!?"

What a broken thing!Even the poorest woman can't look down on this kind of thing!
Since ancient times, quilt cloth skirts have only been used by poor women. Who would like them who have money and status?
However, when Miss Lin saw this wooden hairpin, she actually liked it more than seeing the gold, silver and jewels just now.

"This wooden hairpin—is it rosewood?!"

Asking in a low voice, Miss Lin was full of surprise.

"It's rosewood." Gu Sixiao nodded with a smile.

She glanced at it just now, but she was still not sure, she just felt that the one Xue Shi dared to put in the elegant room was by no means an ordinary wooden hairpin.

After taking a closer look, she was sure that it was indeed a wooden hairpin carved from purple purlin wood, so she immediately boldly presented it to Miss Lin.

I don't like gold, I don't like silver, but Miss Lin will definitely love this red sandalwood.
