My elder sister stole my marriage? She regretted and cried after I married the general.
Chapter 120 Conspiracy
After waiting for another half an incense stick, it was Ye Qinghuan and Mu Qing's turn.
Cuibaoxuan has three floors, and the pearls are divided into two halls: one for buying and selling, and the other for appreciation but not for sale.
Ordinary things were not in the eyes of Ye Qinghuan and Mu Qing. They just browsed around the trading hall and then went to appreciate the real top-notch goods.
Amazing!
The pearls in the exhibition hall are not only bigger, rounder and brighter, but also colorful!
Pink is warm, gold is noble, black is deep, and there is also black with green...
"How could there be such beautiful pearls in the world?" Mu Qing exclaimed in amazement.
"I heard that pearls of different colors are occasionally found in the south, but I've never heard of so many colors." Ye Qinghuan was also amazed.
How could such a rare thing have trouble selling?
Just by paying tribute to the emperor, you can get a lot of money or even an official position.
This trick of selling pearls at a low price was indeed an open conspiracy known to everyone.
"This pink one is so pretty, it's a pity it's not for sale." Mu Qing stood in front of a pink pearl necklace, reluctant to move.
Cuibaoxuan's shopkeeper Liu came over immediately and said, "Madam, these are only for display, not for sale."
"Since you are open for business, why don't you sell it?" Ye Qinghuan asked.
"Boss Bai said that this batch of colorful pearls has an owner. I asked him to let the people of Shengjing open their eyes, so he took them out for display." said Manager Liu.
"Boss Bai?"
For some reason, Ye Qinghuan's heart skipped a beat.
From the south, surnamed Bai?
"Bai, Mubaibai." Shopkeeper Liu smiled and bowed.
Ye Qinghuan was lost.
It’s not white…
"Then could you please ask Mr. Bai to come out so we can talk to him in person?" Mu Qing said.
"It's useless." Shopkeeper Liu shook his head. "Too many people have wanted to see Boss Bai these days. Boss Bai has already said he won't see any visitors."
Although the surnames were different, Ye Qinghuan still wanted to meet the pearl owner and said, "Boss Bai's business is too weird. Since he is selling pearls at a low price, why not take the opportunity to get to know more people. If he can make friends with one or two wealthy businessmen, it will help him out of his predicament."
"Yes, that's what I advised. But Boss Bai is too stubborn and doesn't listen!" Shopkeeper Liu sighed.
There was no point in saying more, so Ye Qinghuan had to give up for the time being.
Just then, someone came out from the inner room behind the exhibition hall.
It turned out to be Shen Rong!
"Second sister-in-law is also here to see Zhenzhu?" Shen Rong was sitting in a wheelchair, looking gentle and handsome.
Anyone who sees him will praise him as a gentleman of jade.
"Why is my third brother here too?" Ye Qinghuan slightly frowned, then quickly relaxed her eyebrows.
"I heard that Cuibaoxuan has some good pearls, so I came with Jiahe County Lady to take a look." Shen Rong smiled, turned around and called softly, "Wan'er, my second sister-in-law is here."
The pearl curtain rustled, accompanied by the clear and pleasant sound of jade, and the gorgeously dressed Jiahe County Lady ran out from the inner room: "Madam Shen, are you here to see the pearls too?"
A huge pink pearl was inserted diagonally into Princess Jiahe's hair bun.
No pink pearl in the exhibition hall was as big as the ones in her hair.
"Greetings, County Lady." Ye Qinghuan saluted.
Princess Jiahe quickly reached out to help her up: "No need to be polite."
"The pearl on the county princess's head is so beautiful, was it just bought?" Mu Qing asked enviously.
"Yes! Mr. Shen bought it for me." Princess Jiahe said shyly.
Ye Qinghuan was speechless.
We just met yesterday, and today we made an appointment to go shopping, and I even bought such top-quality pearls for me.
Shen Rong’s methods are pretty good!
"That's great. I also like pink pearls, but the store doesn't sell them." Mu Qing smiled with her hands covering her mouth.
Princess Jiahe actually didn't understand and said with wide eyes: "Ah? Is that so?"
"Yes." Ye Qinghuan sighed silently.
Mu Qing laughed even louder: "The county lady is so lucky to have bought something that none of us can buy."
"Hehe, it was bought by Third Master Shen. If I came here by myself, I would probably do the same as you guys."
Princess Jiahe was being modest when she said this, but it didn't sound right the way she said it.
It seems more like he is showing off that Shen Rong favors him.
Shen Rong also smiled gracefully, and whenever he looked at Princess Jiahe, his eyes were full of doting.
Because of Ye Qinghuan, Mu Qing had a very good impression of the Shen family. She smiled and joked, "Why don't we ask Mr. Shen San to help us buy pearls as well?"
"Sorry, I've run out of favors." Shen Rong said apologetically.
Ye Qinghuan's eyes narrowed: "Favor? Third brother knows Boss Bai?"
"We met once in the northern border a few years ago," Shen Rong said.
"Oh!"
Ye Qinghuan felt even more puzzled.
A pearl merchant from the south went to the northern border and happened to meet Shen Rong who was treating a patient in Ghost Doctor Valley?
"Brother Bai also went to seek medical advice that year." Shen Rong seemed to see that Ye Qinghuan had doubts and took the initiative to explain.
"This is all Third Brother's opportunity. Since I can't buy it anymore, forget it." Ye Qinghuan said calmly, "Third Brother, send the county lady back to the mansion. The Crown Prince's wife and I will go around again."
"Thank you for your understanding, sister-in-law."
Shen Rong bowed slightly.
Even in a wheelchair, he is very polite.
Mu Qing praised softly: "Sister, this uncle is very good, but it's a pity that his legs are not good."
"Yes." Ye Qinghuan smiled.
"But it looks like good things are about to happen. What are you going to do next?" Mu Qing asked worriedly.
Ye Qinghuan said nonchalantly: "The general is going to take me to the border to have a look."
"Ah? The General's Mansion..."
"It's the branch mansion."
Mu Qing finally breathed a sigh of relief and said solemnly, "Yes, it's best to separate the mansions. If you can't bring yourself to ask, I'll go and tell you."
"Madam, the Crown Prince..."
"I've already said it, we're sisters."
"Sister Mu." Ye Qinghuan smiled and changed the subject, "If you need me, I will look for you."
"Ah."
The two of them went shopping again, and finally Mu Qing bought a white pearl necklace.
When paying the bill, I happened to meet Ye Qinglan and her daughter again.
They have already picked out the pearls they liked and are paying for them.
When he saw Mu Qing, he immediately lowered his head and asked, "Have you chosen your wife, too?"
Madam Ye said, "Then please do me a favor, Madam Crown Prince, and I will pay the bill together!"
"it is good."
Mu Qing gave a look to the maid who was accompanying her, and the maid turned back quietly and picked out two more pieces of pearl jewelry.
So, when paying, the item changed from one necklace to three pieces of jewelry.
Mrs. Ye's eyes twitched, but she still paid the money readily.
A total of one thousand eight hundred taels... a huge sum of money.
The Ye family’s harvest for the coming year has been overdrawn.
"Pack it into two." Mu Qing took out her necklace separately.
Madam Ye asked in confusion, "Aren't they all the Crown Prince's wives?"
"I gave this pearl hairpin and earrings to Sister Ye." Mu Qing said, "Will Madam Ye regret it?"
"How, how could it be?" Mrs. Ye's smile was uglier than crying.
She actually spent her money to buy things for Ye Qinghuan! The wife of the prince was too cunning.
"Thank you for your hospitality, Sister Mu. I'll say goodbye now." Ye Qinghuan accepted the things and said goodbye.
Mu Qing waved her hand and asked her to go first, lest Mrs. Ye ask for the things back.
After Ye Qinghuan got in the car and left, Mu Qing asked Ye Qinglan again: "It's been a while since Aunt Ye left the house, right? Can you come back with me?"
"of course."
Ye Qinghuan didn't dare to resist Mu Qing now, he just followed her back home with his head lowered.
Madam Ye gritted her teeth and adjusted her mood. Then, she took the large pearl necklace she had just bought and went to find Princess Yong'an.
