royal girl

Chapter 329
Huiyu frowned slightly, U Boyi was a very stable person, what could he hide from her?The situation is complicated now, and the transmission of time and space information is relatively slow, so you can't miss any accidents. You got up and said, "It's still early, so let's go to the clubhouse to have a look."

"You want to go out?" Xueying was surprised, "Why don't you take a look?"

Huiyu shook her head. Xueying didn't know much about business, so even if she saw some things in her eyes, she probably wouldn't be able to see the problem.Thinking of something, he said, "Bring that pen holder."

Xueying couldn't persuade her, so she had to wait for her master to change her clothes. Huiyu deliberately confessed that she should wear inconspicuous clothes to hide her eyes and ears.The hair bun was simply tied up with a hairpin, and a plain hairpin was inserted. Xueqi also came back at this time, and waited for Huiyu to go out with Xueying.

After the Shangyuan Festival, there were fewer pedestrians on the street, and it was not as lively as before.However, Qianmen Street is the most prosperous commercial street in Kyoto, and the number of people who turned on this street suddenly increased.As the capital of the Great Jin Dynasty, Kyoto has countless merchants who enter the city every day. The place is full of people and bustling, and you can feel the bustling atmosphere every moment.

Huiyu's carriage blended into the crowd inconspicuously, and soon arrived at Fengyi Club.Huiyu didn't intend to go directly to Wu Boyi, but went straight in with the jade card she had left for herself.A row of shops along the street do business with the outside world, but the shops inside the gate are all non-members who do not consume. There are not many people here, but everyone can afford money.

Unexpectedly, when he stepped in, he met an acquaintance head-on, but it was Guo Tong's mother, Mrs. Guo, and beside her were two wives with strange faces.This is too coincidental. It was too late for Huiyu to avoid it. Mrs. Guo looked up and saw that Huiyu had already responded, and greeted Huiyu with a smile on her face, "I didn't expect to see the princess here, what a coincidence , Princess is also here to buy something?"

With a slight smile, Huiyu said to Mrs. Guo: "I seldom go out. Today, I went out for a stroll and I didn't expect to meet Mrs. It shows that our fate has always been very deep." Dong Feiling did Mrs. Guo's daughter-in-law, the relationship between the two families is related by marriage, so of course it is not far away. "Ma'am is in good health, but you look more radiant than before. It can be seen that everything is going well."

It’s not pleasing to praise the harmony of the family. Those who are officials’ wives are harmonious with their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in foreign affairs, and those who respect husband and wife have the most face. A scholar family like the Guo family cares more about this. This is the face of a scholarly family. .Sure enough, Mrs. Guo's face was full of smiles. They were already close to Huiyu's family. Now Mrs. Guo was happy when she heard Huiyu's words, and said: "Our second daughter-in-law respects her parents-in-law and respects her husband. , can share my worries inside and out, so I am naturally happy to enjoy my life."

This sentence boasted that the Dong family would teach their daughter, and even Huiyu was praised. Huiyu gave her face, and she naturally knew how to give Huiyu face.

Huiyu also laughed, "My third younger sister was a bit mischievous when she was in her boudoir, but now she is more sensible and polite, it's because Madam taught her well."

Mrs. Guo smiled even more happily, "I'm here with two friends for a casual stroll, so I won't disturb the princess, you can do whatever you want."

Even if the whole family is good, Huiyu's identity is there, she is no longer the second girl Dong, and the current Princess Jing has long been looked up to with the high power of King Jing.What's more, the Fengyi clubhouse belongs to the Dingguo government. Madam Guo thought that Huiyu might have something to do when she came, and it would be difficult to block her way if she made friends with her.

"Enjoy yourselves. This clubhouse belongs to my natal family. Although I am not the owner, it's okay to make it easier for Madam."

Mrs. Guo hastily thanked her. This is to save money for herself. It must be a discount on the price for convenience. The price discount is nothing but to give yourself face.Smiling and saying goodbye to Hui Yu, he turned around and took two steps, suddenly turned back, and whispered to Hui Yu, "Suddenly remembered something, a little reckless, please don't blame the princess."

Huiyu lowered her raised foot and smiled at Mrs. Guo: "Look at what you said, speaking of which, you are my elder, so if you have something to say, just say it."

Mrs. Guo moved another half step, and said in a low voice: "During the Lantern Festival, the second eldest family wanted to go to watch the lanterns. Although I became a mother, I was still a child after all. I am not old-fashioned as a mother-in-law, so I naturally agreed. But when she came to talk to me the next day, she accidentally mentioned something, saying that she saw the shopkeeper of Jinguzhai and the steward of Duke Xinguo's mansion together." Jinguzhai robbed Fengyi Club of business, It is no longer news in the capital. Mrs. Guo came to the clubhouse today and just turned around and saw the Zhenbaozhai inside.

Huiyu was stunned. Does Jinguzhai have anything to do with Xin Guogong's mansion?
"How does the third sister know these two people?" This is the strange part.

"How could she know her? It was recognized by the people who served her." Mrs. Guo said.

The big girl who waits by her side will be allocated to some powerful stewards in the mansion without any accidents. If the girl next to Dong Feiling is married to the steward of Guo's mansion, it is not surprising to know these two people.

"Thank you ma'am, I've made a note here, and you will take the third younger sister to my place for tea later." Huiyu smiled.

Mrs. Guo smiled and agreed, but it's not easy to agree directly on whether to go or not.The threshold of the palace is high, and the princess politely said that they are not good, and she really took it seriously.What's more, Prince Jing was aggrieved when he went out this time, and there were many things to do in the palace, "We won't bother you until you're not busy."

The two separated with a smile, and Huiyu lifted her foot and continued walking.

Mrs. Guo returned to her friend, and the two friends hurriedly asked: "Who is the one you are talking about?"

Mrs. Guo couldn't help saying proudly: "This is the cousin of my second daughter-in-law, whom you have all heard of."

The two ladies thought for a while, and one of them said in surprise, "Princess Jing?"

Mrs. Guo nodded, "Let's go. I heard that there are a lot of novelty things coming to the shop here. I just went to open my eyes." Then Zi also followed, mighty and very objective.

When the wife of any family goes out, it is always a bit pompous.

Huiyu went straight to Zhenbaozhai without stopping.

Zhenbaozhai is the shop that was robbed of business by Jinguzhai. This is the business of Wu Chengzhe, the president of the chamber of commerce. Zhenbaozhai's shop is not small, and it is full of gold, stone and jade wares of different sizes and styles.Huiyu glanced at it, no matter whether the things in this shop are real or not, the decoration is really grand and luxurious, with a kind of ancient charm in it.

Seeing the customers coming in, the store responded with enthusiasm, "Whatever this lady wants to buy, I can introduce it to you."

Huiyu didn't speak, Xueqi took a step forward and said to the guy, "Our wife can take a look around at will, if there is something that catches my eye, I'll ask you later."

With such a grand style, the guy didn't dare to talk back, for fear of making the distinguished guests lively.After all, the guests who can enter the club should not be underestimated, so he nodded hurriedly, "Look, look, I'll wait by the side." The guy saw that although the lady's clothes were not very eye-catching, her whole body was full of style. People dare not underestimate it, who knows if there is a wife who doesn't like to show off and go out for a stroll.

Huiyu looked at the things on the ancient shelf, sapphire Ganoderma lucidum wash, Ge kiln sunflower plate, red glaze monk hat pot, Longquan string pattern three-legged tube furnace... The things are very miscellaneous, but they are all in good condition and preserved. It is relatively complete, and it can be seen that it has indeed taken a lot of effort.There aren't any big items on this floor, but any one of these decorations can be regarded as a boutique.Huiyu's eyes fell on a palace fan woven with tooth silk and inlaid with dyed teeth. This fan has a clear color scheme, the fan bones are inlaid with jade carvings, and the handle is made of Xiangfei bamboo.In the hot summer, holding such a fan in your hand to enjoy the coolness is indeed a pleasing thing, Huiyu likes it very much.

Holding the fan in her hand, Huiyu asked with a smile, "How do you sell this fan?"

The guy didn't expect the lady to pick up an unremarkable fan, and hurriedly said: "This is an object from the previous dynasty. It is complete in appearance, fine in workmanship, and generous in color. The jade inlaid on it is old jade. And you look at the rare fine-quality goods with the teeth as thin as hair. The price here is not expensive, and this fan is sold here by Rentuo, 200 taels. I wonder if it catches your eye?"

"The price is a bit expensive." Huiyu glanced at the guy, "Is there a drag and drop fee for consigning items to you?"

"Naturally, but this item belongs to a friend of our shopkeeper, so we don't charge the middle price. The price the villain told you is the seller's asking price."

This guy looked like you took advantage of him, and Huiyu wanted to laugh when he saw it.

"An old thing with a new bone is not worth the price." Huiyu said lightly.

The guy was suddenly dumbfounded, it turned out that he had met a master.The fan bones of this fan are indeed new, but ordinary people can't tell if the fan bones are old. I didn't expect this lady to have a pair of sharp eyes, so I felt a little flustered in my heart. After thinking about it, I said: "You really have sharp eyes. It's been a long time, so it's inevitable that there is something wrong. Although this fan bone is old, but you can see that the craftsmanship cannot be done by ordinary craftsmen. It is the most famous Master Tong's handwriting, so it is worth the price. "

"Master Tong?" Huiyu doesn't know much about the craftsmen of this time and space, but the old-fashioned craftsmanship is indeed considered a master.

Hearing Huiyu's hesitant tone, the clerk thought that Huiyu could see the details all at once before, and never thought that she had never heard of this person. He thought it was Huiyu who didn't believe it was Master Tong's craftsmanship, so he was a little unhappy Said: "Master Tong is known as Tong Bainian, and the things he made can be more than a hundred years old. There is a secret mark on this fan bone. If you don't believe me, take a look."

The clerk took the fan and pointed it to Huiyu from the part of the fan bone that was hidden by the jade carving.

Huiyu turned her head to look, only to see that the word "hundred years" was engraved inside.Every master, his own things will have a secret mark, as a means of identification, but only he knows where the secret mark falls.

Huiyu had never heard of Tong Bainian, but she had a plan. She really needed an excellent craftsman, but she didn't know if Tong Bainian could be hired.Judging from this fan, his craftsmanship is indeed very good.

Huiyu nodded, and said to Xueying, "If that's the case, then accept it."

The guy became happy, and said to Huiyu: "Ma'am, we still have a lot of exquisite big things upstairs. You should like such fine things with your eyes. There is also a small screen on it, with five hundred red sandalwood inlaid on it." Arhat's screen. I'm not exaggerating, the five hundred Arhat carvings are lifelike and lifelike. This is an antique, and the price is a little expensive."

This guy's sales strategy is good, and there is a hint of fear that Huiyu can't afford it in his tone. It won't make people feel disgusted, but it can arouse the heart.However, Huiyu was not the kind of person who would do stupid things when excited, and said with a smile: "I'm not busy, is your shopkeeper here?"

"Yes, but I'm busy upstairs. If you have any orders, I will do the same." The man said quickly.

"You can't be the master of this matter, please come to your shopkeeper." Huiyu said.

Although the guy was a little unhappy, he trotted up the stairs and let another guy watch over him. He came back soon, followed by a middle-aged man with a fat face and a little fat.

"I'm the shopkeeper here. I don't know what orders Madam has?" Fang Chengping smiled all over his face and clasped his fists with a polite look.

Huiyu sized him up and said, "Take a step to speak."

Fang Chengping was taken aback for a moment, but he quickly bent over and stretched out his hand, "Please."

Huiyu followed Fang Chengping to the inner room, invited Huiyu to sit down, and ordered someone to serve tea, and then sat down and said, "I don't know what Madam wants to say, but I can speak out here."

Huiyu glanced at Xueqi, and Xueqi immediately took a step forward, and placed a square hollow boxwood box with carved patterns that she brought from the palace earlier on the table.

Fang Chengping glanced at Huiyu and asked with a smile, "Madam, do you want to sell something?" There are people who come to Zhenbaozhai to buy things, but there are also people who sell things. This is not unusual.

"The shopkeeper has to look at the things before talking."

Fang Chengping stood up, said with a smile: "Then you're welcome."

He took the box over, counted the weight, and knew that the box was not for sale. In fact, the box was not an antique and could not be sold for much.When I opened the box, I saw a pen holder inside.He stretched out his hand and put it in his palm to examine it carefully, the face that was a little relaxed just now slowly changed.He looked up at Huiyu again, and asked cautiously, "Would you like to share these things?" Why is this pen holder so similar to the one from West Street?If so, isn't this the one Jinguzhai is looking for?Then...the lady in front of him...Fang Chengping's heartbeat accelerated involuntarily, and he became a little cautious.

Something happened to someone in the antique circle. In fact, it spread very quickly. Years ago in Jinguzhai, the guy was watching people everywhere. They knew about it a long time ago. Later, they found out about the pen holder after inquiring here.I didn't expect this pen holder to appear here now. What is this lady going to do?If the pen holder falls into their hands, the Qi family will have a headache. Although they don't know what's wrong with the pen holder, there must be something wrong with the Qi family being so nervous.

Huiyu looked at Fang Chengping and said, "Just exchange the fan I liked earlier, what does the shopkeeper think?"

Guessing the other party's identity, Fang Chengping didn't dare to take it too seriously, and immediately said: "You can just use that fan if you like, and you can set a price for this pen holder."

"No, this pen holder doesn't cost much." Huiyu stood up, looked at Fang Chengping and said, "I'll let your master know this thing. If you have the heart, it can be of great use."

Huiyu left this sentence and took the people away. The reason why Huiyu brought this pen holder today was because Huiyu didn't want to confront the Qi family in person.The off-the-shelf Zhenbaozhai had a feud with Jinguzhai, and she happened to help Wu Chengzhe, so the old fox should not be able to watch the excitement now.Although she likes the fan, she values ​​Tong Bainian more. If she can invite him, Jin Gu Zhai will be nothing to worry about.

Wu Chengzhe bought and sold a lot, looking at the pen holder on the table and listening to the shopkeeper's retelling of what happened, he really couldn't laugh or cry for a while.

Originally, I wanted to see how the Fengyi Club would handle this matter, but now Princess Jing would throw this problem at him again. Of course, he had heard about this pen holder, but he knew that there was such a pen holder, but he didn’t know that Jin Gu Zhai Why are you looking for.Concubine Jing asked him to palm his eyes carefully, so he picked up the pen holder and looked at it carefully, and asked Fang Chengping: "Have you seen this pen holder, can you see that there is a problem?"

"The villain has seen it, but he has doubts." When it is not sure whether it is true or not, it is regarded as doubt.Fang Chengping felt that since Princess Jing brought this pen holder, there must be something wrong with it, but he didn't see that it was because of his poor eyesight and lack of skill, but he dared not say that Princess Jing might have misread it.

When Wu Chengzhe heard Fang Chengping's words, he looked at it and said, "If there is no problem, why is Jinguzhai so nervous about the things that are sold? There must be something wrong with this pen holder, and you have the nerve to doubt it if you don't see it!"

Fang Chengping was about to break out in cold sweat, but he really didn't notice it.
