Chapter 334 From His Hands
The three of them are not short of money, so naturally they will not squander it and will save as much as possible.
Hearing the shopkeeper's words, he was very happy and went straight to the third floor of the gold shop.
Xia Yining thought that she had never bought jewelry for the women in her family, so she waved her hand and asked the shopkeeper to bring over all the best head jewelry.
It just so happened that she also wanted to know how exquisite the headwear made by the skilled craftsmen in ancient times was.
In fact, she has a lot of things in her private collection, but she doesn't like to carry a lot of things with her, and she has never looked at them because she has too many things on her head.
Looking at the headdress made of gold, even the patterns of the flowers looked like real ones, she sincerely felt that her ancestors had really good aesthetic taste.
She liked everything she saw, but there were indeed few Nanxu gems and limited embellishments.
If there were more, she couldn't imagine how beautiful the headdress would look.
"The Empress and Yu'er will choose first, and they can go back and give the gifts."
The two of them were not polite to her. After all, she lived in the capital and could buy it whenever she wanted.
In the end, all the headwear that the shopkeeper brought out was swept away by the two of them, leaving nothing for her.
Xia Yining: ???
Very good, women’s purchasing power is terrifying no matter what era.
Now it’s over. I definitely can’t buy anything for my family. After all, the Xia family doesn’t have much other than a lot of people.
Including my two mothers and sisters-in-law, there will be at least a dozen sets. It will not be good if anyone is missing.
So he asked, "Is this all the shopkeeper has? Do you have any other stock?"
The shopkeeper of the Golden House was so ashamed that he did not expect the Empress to be so powerful. He quickly bent over and said, "Yes, yes, there are still more than a dozen sets left in stock. I will send someone to get them."
After saying this, she felt both happy and sad. Her master had always wanted the princess to wear the jewelry from Jinlou, but she finally got the chance but it was snatched away by someone else.
Even though the commission would be huge today, the shopkeeper couldn't smile, for fear of being reprimanded by his master.
He took out a dozen sets of headgear from the warehouse with the servant and was about to go upstairs in a hurry, but was stopped by the servant beside Xi Zhiyi.
She handed him a box very carefully, and you could tell how valuable the things inside were.
He explained seriously: "The master received the news and said you did a good job."
"It's okay to sell things in the Golden House, but if it's for the eldest princess, you can only buy this set of headgear, and you're not allowed to charge money."
"Did you hear clearly, shopkeeper?"
This really embarrassed him, and he cried, "The eldest princess is a good person. People on the street have to give money when they give them things, not to mention the headgear worth ten thousand taels. Master, aren't you making things difficult for me?"
The servant took one look at him and realized how difficult this was, because the eldest princess was very upright, unlike some short-sighted people who liked to take advantage of others.
He also sighed and said, "I know you are in a difficult situation. When I return home later, I will also say a few good words for the shopkeeper. If the matter fails, I believe you will not be punished."
"Hey~~~ This is a great feeling, thank you very much, brother."
"It's just something the master has given me. I will definitely try my best to complete it."
After the items were delivered, the shopkeeper of Jinlou carefully held the box containing the head ornaments and placed it in front of Xia Yining.
The voice was somewhat bewitching: "This painting is the treasure of the town. My craftsmen worked for many years to make this one. I want to present it to the eldest princess."
"I guess..." The shopkeeper glanced at the empress and said with a smile, "I'm sure you can understand my feelings. You won't mind that only the eldest princess has it."
The Empress of the Northern Dynasty:
She always felt that the shopkeeper looked at her like a robber, because she just bought a little more.
Shaking his head, "Since it is specially prepared for the eldest princess, I will naturally not take it away from others."
"Yu'er doesn't know either, Ning'er, quickly open it and see what great stuff it is." She could see clearly that the shopkeeper's movements were extremely careful, as if he was holding a rare treasure.
Xia Yining was very curious, and slowly opened the box following her urging.
At that moment, the colorful gemstone headpiece emitted a bright and dazzling light, and even the small decorations embellished by the emperor were made of green jadeite.
The entire headpiece is made of extremely fine gold wire and is relatively light in the hand. The more sophisticated the workmanship, the more complex it is.
Seeing that he liked it, the shopkeeper quickly introduced: "The tens of thousands of gold threads on this headpiece were first melted, then hammered out bit by bit, and then polished."
"The skilled craftsman bent it into shape little by little by hand, and finally fixed it little by little."
"The whole process is extremely tedious, and this is the only thing in the world that is second to this."
The three women were all stunned, and they could understand why the shopkeeper was so careful, as it would be difficult to repair if it was bumped or scratched.
Zhen Yuer touched it carefully and couldn't help but exclaimed.
He quickly said, "Ning'er, buy this one. It will look good on you."
The empress also nodded in agreement. After all, Xia Yining's appearance was impeccable, there was only one like him in the world, and he was indeed very suitable for her.
She said directly: "Take it, and treat it as a gift from this empress to Ning'er. Wear it directly on the day of the palace banquet to blind their eyes."
"Hey hey hey..."
"(*^▽^*)"
Now it was the shopkeeper's turn to be anxious. Sweat broke out on his forehead. He quickly said, "Your Majesty, there is no need to spend money. This headdress is a gift from the Golden House to congratulate the eldest princess on her waking up."
"Please do not refuse, Princess. I am truly grateful to you for fighting for the border soldiers many years ago."
"To be honest, I also have a son at home. He was young and energetic and sneaked to the border. He made me very worried."
"If you hadn't been there, I would have been sending off the young with my old age."
"You are his motivation to live. Please accept it, Princess."
"otherwise···"
"otherwise···"
Everyone:? ? ?
Otherwise, why don't you say something? It makes me curious.
"Otherwise, I will hold my head and face and stand guard at the gate of the Left Prime Minister's residence all day until you take action."
Everyone:······
Oh, this is someone who is eager to give something to someone even though they don’t want it. I’ve never seen anything like this in my life.
Although her words were flawless, as if she was thanking Xia Yining for saving her son, she keenly felt that something was wrong.
Especially when the shopkeeper said the word "son", his tone sounded weak, as if he was worried about being held accountable later.
This made Xia Yining more cautious. After thinking for a while, she said, "This headpiece is really what I like. It is indeed very beautifully made."
"Why don't you name a price, and I'll buy it?"
Hearing that she liked it, the owner of Jinlou smiled happily, thinking that his mistress had excellent craftsmanship and good taste.
It is worthy of being made for the princess personally. This headdress is the result of the master's hard work day and night. Only the person in front of me is worthy of it.
No matter what Xia Yining said, the shopkeeper of the Golden House refused to take any money, and even said, "If I can see the princess wearing it on her head one day, I will die without regrets."
