A car accident, our family of three crossed

Chapter 547: Why don’t you come and make that specially customized hairpin? Zhou Huan was very interested in it. Whenever he had time, he would go to the workshop and personally supervise the master craftsman in carving and polishing it.

The old master was almost annoyed by his constant wandering, so he said unhappily, "Boss, why are you so free lately? You come to hang around in front of me every day, making me dizzy."

"Master Dong, please take care of yourself and don't worry about me. Just treat me as air."

The old master sneered. There was a living person in front of him, and he was asked to treat him as if he didn't exist? He was old, but he was not blind.

She turned her back to him and continued carving and polishing the jade in her hand.

However, no matter where he turned, Zhou Huan would immediately follow him. In short, he would appear in front of him in the end.

The old master simply stopped what he was doing, stared at Zhou Huan for a long while, and said, "Boss, you've been here every day recently, and you've been watching for a few days. You must have learned everything you need to learn! How about you come? It's a good opportunity for me to take a break."

"How can that be possible?" Zhou Huan knew that the old man was really upset with him, so he quickly apologized and said, "You have been practicing this craft for your whole life, how can others learn it just by watching for a few days?"

"No, I think the shopkeeper is very talented. It is not a problem for him to learn a skill in three to five days."

"No, no, you are flattering me." Zhou Huan's mouth twitched slightly. He knew that the old man was trying to drive him away, so he could only go along with him. "I still have some things to deal with in the shop. I'll leave first."

As soon as he left, the old master looked at his receding back and snorted proudly, "Hmph! You little brat, I can't cure you."

After saying that, he picked up his tools again and continued with his work, humming a little tune in a good mood.

Because this style is unique, the master craftsman carved it very carefully.

As the saying goes, slow work makes perfect. Normally, he could finish a more complicated design in three to five days, but this time, it took him eight days to finish the hairpin.

The master took the finished product in his hands and played with it. The jade was of the finest quality, and the design was unique. It was a perfect match, a perfect match! He was reluctant to give it away.

But what can he do even if he is reluctant to part with it? This hairpin was made by him, but it doesn't belong to him. This is the helplessness of living under the hands of others!

He had better find a box to put it away. For such a valuable item, he had to deliver it to the shopkeeper personally and treat him to a good meal and wine.

Zhou Huan was very generous. After receiving the hairpin, he was very satisfied and in a good mood. With a wave of his hand, he took the master chef to Zui Xiang Ju and let him order any dishes he wanted.

The master chef was not polite either. He ordered whatever wine was best and which dish went best with the wine. In the end, he even ordered a few dishes to take away.

All in all, this meal cost Zhou Huan dozens of taels of silver.

Zhou Huan didn't care about the comparison. It was just a few dozen taels, which was no match for the effort made by the master craftsman in making the hairpin.

Mei had almost forgotten about the matter of compensating for the hairpin. She returned to the house at noon that day. A short while later, someone came to report that someone was outside the door and said that there was something that needed to be handed to her personally.

Mei was still a little confused, but she still asked someone to bring the person outside in.

When the people came up, Mei looked at the other person and asked, "Which mansion are you from? I heard that you have something to hand over to me personally?"

The visitor did not state his origin, but simply said: "Our shopkeeper asked me to personally hand this item to Madam Mei."

As he spoke, he presented a slender brocade box.

After hearing the three words of "shopkeeper" and seeing the brocade box, Mei reacted and guessed roughly what it was.

If she guessed correctly, the so-called shopkeeper must be Shopkeeper Zhou! And the thing in the brocade box should be the hairpin.

She didn't expect that what she said was just a joke, the other party actually took it seriously and actually gave her a hairpin.

When she raised her hand to take the brocade box, she said to the man, "Please tell your shopkeeper that I thank him very much."

The man nodded slightly, then she cupped her hands and said, "The things have been delivered, I will take my leave now."

After the man left, the two maids beside Mei leaned over to look at the brocade box, curious about what was inside.

However, Mei did not let them do as they wished. She took the brocade box and went back to the house, telling them not to disturb her.

Returning to the room, she stared at the brocade box and hesitated for a moment before slowly opening it. At first glance, she was attracted by the hairpin in the box and was reluctant to leave it for a moment.

It was beautiful, so beautiful in fact. It was her fault that she had not read many books and could not think of any nice and appropriate words to describe its beauty.

She carefully took out the hairpin from the brocade box. It was cool, delicate and smooth to the touch. Even though she didn't know much about jade, she knew that the quality of this one was much better than the one she had before. The difference was not a little bit.

Is this too expensive?

But she had already accepted it, so should she return it? That would be too rude.

Gently insert the hairpin into your hair and look at yourself in the mirror. It seems that your whole person has become softer and more beautiful.

After looking at it for a while, she took off the hairpin. She really couldn't bear to wear such a valuable thing all the time. If it was broken again one day, she would be heartbroken.

When she put the hairpin back into the brocade box, she noticed a piece of paper at the bottom of the box. She took it out and saw a line of small characters written in a flamboyant style on it, and the signature was exactly Zhou Huan.

What was written on the note was probably an apology for the delay in delivering the gift.

Mei put the note back to the bottom, put the hairpin in, then closed the brocade box and prepared to put it in her makeup box so that she could wear it on some important occasion in the future.

But on second thought, she didn't seem to have any chance to attend any important occasions. She was a divorced woman, and others avoided her. How could they be willing to invite her to any important occasion?

She thought about it over and over again, but couldn't think of any important occasions in her future life. Was she going to just put this hairpin in her makeup box and let it gather dust?

Thinking of this, she simply opened the brocade box again, took out the hairpin inside, and put it back into her hair.

A beautiful hairpin has no meaning if you don’t wear it.

The person who came to deliver the brocade box just now was a secret guard. He returned to Jubao Pavilion to report and then left.
