The little girl from a farm family has a big wish to make a fortune by farming and picking mushrooms

Qi Rui really wanted to sneer, but the upbringing of the General's Mansion forced him to hold it back.

"Okay, let's go then."

Qi Rui winked at Qi Jian and Ning An, and the three of them followed Liu Rushuang.

Liu Rushuang glanced at Qi Jian and Princess Ning'an, frowned and smiled.

"Thank you, Princess, the Second Young Master, and the Third Young Master, for taking the time to accompany me on such a cold day. It is truly an honor for Ru Shuang."

"Alright, alright, no need to be polite. Just finish your selection and go home. It's freezing outside. You're wearing so little. We can't afford it if you get cold."

Ning An bit a candied haws, spoke without any politeness, and walked forward with a swagger.

I don’t know what my second cousin was thinking. Why would he agree to visit a jewelry store with a woman he had only met once?

Liu Rushuang was supported by a little maid beside her and coughed from time to time. This made Ning An dislike her even more.

After the few people arrived at the silver shop, the shopkeeper and the waiter saw that they were distinguished guests and quickly invited them to the private room.

"Boss, show us the latest designs from your silver shop."

The shopkeeper poured tea for everyone and said yes repeatedly, while the waiter beside him hurried downstairs to get something.

After being outside in the wind for a long time, I felt warm all over when I entered the house, and even Liu Rushuang stopped coughing.

Liu Rushuang was about to speak when Qi Jian and Ning An started chatting.

"Ning An, when the jewelry is served, will you pick out a few nice ones to try on?"

"I think we should forget it. The palace has plenty of these things. Besides, the craftsmanship of the common people is still a little inferior to that of the palace."

Ning An held the hot teacup in her hands and sat on the stool as quiet as a chicken. She was enjoying the heat flowing through her body.

"That's what you said."

Ning An's words made Liu Rushuang feel uncomfortable.

She was born with a lot of worries and concerns, and when she heard Princess Ning'an say this, she felt that she was implying that her background was not as noble as hers.

There were some tears in her eyes. She was thinking of retorting when Qi Rui spoke again.

"Take some if you like them. Even if you don't want them, you can give them to the little maidservant beside you."

"That's right, second cousin, that's a good idea. I'll pick some for them later."

After a while, Liu Rushuang's words were stuck in her throat and she didn't know how to speak again.

The guys downstairs brought over three large trays in a row.

On it are some silver hairpins, silver chains, bracelets, earrings and other jewelry.

"I don't know what styles you would like, so I've brought over some of the best-selling items in recent days."

The shopkeeper introduced the craftsmanship and meaning of each piece along the tray.

Qi Rui would keep a copy of anything he found satisfying.

The maid behind Liu Rushuang clenched her handkerchief tightly. She didn't expect that the second young master of the Qi family was so concerned about his young lady. This meant that there was hope for her young lady to marry into General Qi's mansion.

Even Liu Rushuang next to her felt the same way.

Qi Jian and Ning An on the opposite side also stared at each other in confusion, not knowing what was wrong with their second brother.

After the shopkeeper introduced the three trays on the table, more than half of the things were left by Qi Rui.

The shopkeeper rubbed his hands excitedly, this is today's God of Wealth!

"Shopkeeper, bring up some of the things in your store that are suitable for children, and also some for the elderly. Bring them all over and let me see them."

"Okay, okay, I'll make the arrangements right away."

When the shopkeeper heard that the God of Wealth wanted more, he immediately told his waiter to get it.

"Second cousin, why are you buying so many? Why do you need some for the elderly and children? My aunt and the old lady don't need these things, right?"

Liu Rushuang also opened her eyes wide, not knowing what the Second Young Master Qi was up to.

"Second Master, these jewels are picked for Rushuang. These are too many..."

She was too embarrassed to accept it.

"Miss Rushuang, you misunderstood. I will be returning to the base in a few days. These things are my gifts for the local villagers. The shopkeeper introduced so many of them just now. Miss Rushuang, why are you just standing there without making any choice? Since you and Ning An didn't make any choice, I won't be polite."

After Qi Rui finished speaking, not only Ning An and Qi Jian couldn't help laughing, but even Ru Feng behind him couldn't help laughing.

The master is really something. How can Miss Rushuang save face?

"Oh, by the way, I think this hairpin is quite suitable for Miss Rushuang. How about letting your maid try it on for you?"

Liu Rushuang took the silver hairpin from Qi Rui's hand and took a look. There was a huge lotus flower on the hairpin!

What does the Second Young Master mean?

Liu Rushuang looked at it again and again, and finally put the silver hairpin down.

"Why don't you try it? This silver hairpin is well made. The filigree technique looks very unique, and there is a lotus pattern on it. 'Lotus grows out of mud but remains unstained, and washes in the clear water but remains undefiled'. It is very suitable for Miss Rushuang's pure and innocent temperament."

Hearing Qi Rui's praise, Liu Rushuang said with a fake smile, "Thank you for your kindness, Second Young Master. I'm afraid Rushuang doesn't have this blessing. I have something else to do, so I'll go back first. Princess, Second Young Master, Third Young Master, you can take your time to choose. Rushuang won't bother you any more."

After Liu Rushuang finished speaking, she did not stay any longer. She stood up, bowed, and left quickly. On the way, she met the shopkeeper who came to deliver something.

As soon as Liu Rushuang left, Ning An couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Second cousin, you are so mean. Look at that Liu Rushuang. Her nose is about to be crooked by anger."

"That's right. She thought those were picked for her. She was so embarrassed when asked."

"Okay, I really didn't mean that just now. Who knew it would turn out like this? I haven't had the chance to thank her yet. Next time you see her, thank her for me. If it weren't for her, I would have forgotten to bring gifts for my friends."

After hearing what Qi Rui said, Qi Jian and Ning An's eyes instantly became gossipy.

"Brother, what friend? You've been back for so long, but I've never heard you mention it once."

"Second cousin, you just picked out so many silver hairpins and earrings. They are all gifts for the little girl."

"Don't make wild guesses. I just asked the shopkeeper to take some things for the children and the elderly. Why didn't you ask?"

Seeing that the two of them had stopped arguing, Qi Rui started laughing again.

"These are small gifts for the local villagers. You don't have to be so curious. Come with me to the Four Seasons Book House later and buy a set of pens, inkstones, paper and inkstones for each of the officials."

"Ah~ I thought there was something fun, but who knew it would be just like this! Just let Rufeng do it, and we can just go home."

"Okay, let Rufeng handle it. We'll wait here."

The shopkeeper brought out many rare things, and Qi Rui picked and chose and bought some more before he was done.

And at Qi Rui's suggestion, Ning An also bought a pair of earrings for each of the maids in her palace.
