Concubine De and the third princess quickly bowed and greeted, "Your servant has met the Queen Mother. May the Queen Mother be blessed with good health and good health."

"My granddaughter greets my royal grandmother. May she be blessed with good health and good health."

"No gift."

The two men stood up and were stunned when they saw the pearls on the faces of several people, with surprise flashing in their eyes.

Shen Jiarou bowed respectfully to the two and said, "Greetings to Concubine De and the Third Princess."

The third princess also returned the greeting.

Concubine De couldn't help but be curious, "Empress Dowager, how come you have pearls on your faces?"

The Queen Mother said cheerfully, "It was just a sudden idea of ​​the girl."

Shen Jiarou looked at the third princess and said, "Third sister, you can try it when you go back. You can use that donkey-hide gelatin."

The third princess was pleasantly surprised and nodded, "Okay."

Concubine De came over and supported the Empress Dowager, and they all went to the pavilion in the middle of the lotus pond and sat down.

Looking at the blooming lotuses in the pond, the Queen Mother smiled kindly.

"It looks good."

After the concubines of Fengyi Palace left, the Queen relieved herself of her fatigue. Seeing the phoenix fan on the phoenix chair, she couldn't help but smile.

"This girl is really thoughtful."

Nanny Luo also spoke well of the princess, "That's right, she put a lot of thought into everything. Concubine De was right. The Queen will be even happier in the future."

Thinking of the soft-tempered Concubine De, the Queen smiled gently.

"She is a person who knows her limits."

The harem is huge, but the speed at which information spreads is also very fast.

Liu Xu told the emperor and Li Jiang what she had heard.

"Oh, pearls on the face?" He had never seen such makeup before.

The Empress Dowager and others had never expected that quietly admiring the lotus flowers could attract the Emperor.

"The Emperor has arrived!"

Concubine De, the Third Princess, Shen Jiarou and others hurriedly saluted.

"I, my concubine, see you, Your Majesty."

"My son has met my father."

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."

……

"Your son greets the Queen Mother. May the Queen Mother be blessed with good health and good health."

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty looked up at the Queen Mother and found a row of pearls on both sides of her cheeks and another on her forehead.

"Mother looks more noble and graceful like this."

Everyone likes nice words, including the Queen Mother. "Really? Thank you very much."

Emperor Shundi of Yuan Dynasty was stunned. "Yi Yi, did you design this for your grandmother?"

Shen Jiarou smiled brightly, with shallow dimples faintly visible on both sides of her face.

"Father, their faces were designed by me."

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty looked up and found that except for Concubine De and the Third Princess, there were many people with pearls of different sizes on their faces.

"It looks quite unique and beautiful."

The next moment, Shen Jiarou heard something even happier.

"Li Jiang, go back and deliver two boxes of pearls to Princess Yongkang."

Shen Jiarou was delighted and thanked him happily, "Thank you, father."

The third princess looked at her enviously.

When Shen Jiarou returned, she was very excited when she thought of the boxes of pearls.

An Yiyin was afraid that the princess would feel hot, so she quickly fanned her.

But Shen Jiarou did feel a lot more comfortable. "Thank you, Sister Yiyin."

An Yiyin smiled shyly, "Princess, is the strength appropriate?"

"pretty good."

Looking at the round fan in An Yiyin's hand, Shen Jiarou had other ideas.

"What do you think if I merge the pearls into the round fan?"

Ruan Qingling and others were stunned when they heard this, and Aunt Zhenhua seemed to be thinking about something.

"Pearls are originally owned by wealthy families, and round fans are generally used by the ladies of wealthy families. If the two are combined, it will further show wealth."

Zhen Luosang was distracted by imagining the princess wearing pearl makeup and holding a pearl fan.

"Princess, why don't we try it now."

Because of Shen Jiarou, her maids also became people who do what they say.

Ruan Qingling and Zhen Luosang were both very good at embroidery, so Shen Jiarou asked them to embroider one each.

After the efforts of both of them, Ruan Qingling finished embroidering first, because she had embroidered almost half as many pearls.

Shen Jiarou took the finished product and admired it. "It's quite unique. Let me think about what price is appropriate."

Shen Jiarou was wandering in the center of the main hall holding a pearl fan.

Half a quarter of an hour later, Zhen Luosang's round fan embroidered with pearls was also finished.

“This one is also good. Each has its own beauty.”

Shen Jiarou entered the study room holding two round fans. "Su Shuang, let me tell you, let's decide on the price all at once."

Elemental Frost bowed respectfully, walked to the desk and sat down properly.

Yaer went to grind the ink on her own initiative, and Zhang Zirou took out the rice paper and spread it on top.

"Pearls are divided into three levels: small, medium and large, and then further divided into nine sizes: small, small, medium, small, medium, medium, large, large, medium and large. The price of a single pearl is 10 taels, 15 taels, 20 taels, 25 taels, 30 taels, 35 taels, 40 taels, 45 taels and 50 taels."

Aunt Zhenhua frowned and said, "Princess, this price is probably too cheap. Pearls are precious things, and they will eventually run out."

Shen Jiarou smiled mysteriously, "Aunt, I'm not that stupid, and I'm not a philanthropist. The pearls given by my father are better than those given by my mother, so of course I have to keep them for great use. The ones given by my mother, we divide into nine categories, big and small."

Seeing that she had an idea, Aunt Zhenhua said no more.

In the end, the lowest price for the pearl fan was fifty taels, with each pearl accounting for ten taels and the embroidery accounting for forty taels; the highest price was temporarily one thousand taels, with fifty small pearls for a total of five hundred taels, and the embroidery was made of the best brocade, so the finished product was worth five hundred taels.

Shen Jiarou also customizes the pricing of patterns separately, and the prices vary.

Thinking of the many pearls her father and mother had given her, Shen Jiarou decided to make a gift for each of them.

In the past few days, Shen Jiarou has been embroidering seriously in Fanghua Palace. After unremitting efforts, the perfect Phoenix Peony Pearl Round Fan is completed.

Everyone was amazed when they looked at the finished round fan.

Anyin and Xie Lianmu exclaimed, "It's so beautiful."

Designed by Shen Jiarou herself, the phoenix is ​​flying above the peony flowers. The phoenix is ​​bigger and the peony flowers are smaller.

Shen Jiarou continued to make the second gift, weaving a peace knot by hand and stringing some precious beads on and off, and finished it after an hour.

"Mission accomplished." Shen Jiarou moved her waist.

When they were about to go out, the third princess came with her maids.

"Third sister."

"Sister Yi Yi, are you preparing to go out?"

Shen Jiarou smiled faintly, "I want to give a gift to my father and mother, do you want to go with me?"

The third princess thought of her own embroidery, and Shen Jiarou suddenly understood.

"Leave it there, let's go hang out in front of our mother."

The handkerchief on the tray that Zhang Zirou was holding was blown by the wind unintentionally.

The third princess took a look and was surprised to see the pearl on the fan.

"Sister, are you here?"

Shen Jiarou picked it up and showed it, "It's okay. I don't know if the Queen Mother likes it."

The third princess looked at the beautiful round fan and was amazed. "I'm sure you'll like it."

The third princess was taken into Fengyi Palace in a daze.

"The third princess has arrived! Princess Yongkang has arrived!"

The queen, who had taken care of the palace affairs, was stunned. "Two princesses came at the same time?"

Shen Jiarou held her gift in both hands and gave it to the queen.

"Mother, the embroidery is not good. Take it and play with it when you have free time."

The queen stared at the fan in amazement. The pearls on it were exquisite and of high quality. They must have been a reward from the emperor. The embroidery was in the shape of phoenixes and azaleas, and the combination of the two with pearls was extremely beautiful.
