Chapter 387 Pearl Jewelry
"Grandma, I do have some pearls in my house. Take a look at what style this sister likes, and I'll tell the craftsmen to make a few pieces specially for her." Qi Xingyun said with a smile.
Hearing this, Old Lady Yang couldn't help but frown slightly and muttered softly: "Oh, custom-made, isn't this too expensive?"
Qi Xingyun hurriedly comforted her, "Grandma, don't worry! It's not a big deal. Those pearls have been sitting in the storeroom for nothing. Instead of doing that, why not take them out and make them into jewelry or something like that?"
This way, Xiao Cao'er will have jewelry and won't have to go out and buy new ones. Isn't this the best of both worlds?"
As he spoke, Qi Xingyun smiled, gently stretched out his hand, slowly patted the back of Grandma Yang's wrinkled and slightly rough hand, and whispered softly: "Grandma, don't worry about this." This pat and caress seemed to convey endless comfort and peace of mind.
After hearing this, Old Lady Yang nodded slightly, a trace of relief flashed in her eyes, and she said slowly, "That's good, but Xingyun, you have to tell me how much money you spent. When the time comes, I'll give you the money, and you can just think of it as buying it from you."
Old Lady Yang murmured in a low voice, thinking to herself that although Qi Xingyun and her granddaughter were in love, they were not married yet. It would be inappropriate to accept his gift for no reason. If she gave him the silver, she would consider it as her own purchase, and she would feel more at ease when using it in the future.
Qi Xingyun smiled heartily upon hearing this, and replied, "Don't worry, grandma. I will definitely not be polite to you when the time comes!" After that, he turned his gaze to the quiet and well-behaved Xiaocao'er beside him, and asked in a gentle voice, "Sister Xiaocao'er, are you going to draw the design drawings for the pearl jewelry, or will you let the experienced craftsmen in the silver shop draw them?"
When Xiao Cao'er heard this, she was stunned at first, then she lowered her head, lightly supported her chin with her little hand, and began to think seriously.
After a moment, she looked up, blinked her big watery eyes, and answered crisply, "Brother Xingyun, I may need to think about it again to see if I can come up with a style I like. If I really have no inspiration, I can only ask the craftsmen to make it according to their ideas."
Qi Xingyun smiled and nodded, and responded gently: "Okay, no problem. When you have an idea, remember to tell me."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a sound of light footsteps coming from far away. Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw that it was Miaoyin leading the silver shop owner in, and behind them was Yunliu.
The shopkeeper held a tray filled with a dazzling array of pearl jewelry, each of which was round and smooth, exuding a charming luster. These pearl jewelry were either inlaid on gold and silver, or set off with gemstones, with various shapes and beautiful appearances.
After Yun Liu followed in, he didn't even say hello to his master Qi Xingyun, but walked straight to Old Lady Yang.
With a flattering smile on his face, he said enthusiastically, "Old lady, have you picked out any jewelry that suits your taste? If not, do you need me to help you choose some?"
Hearing Yunliu's voice, Old Lady Yang smiled happily and quickly responded: "Oh, Xiaoliu is here too! I have already made my choice. Look, this is what Xiaocaoer and her mother picked for me." As she spoke, Old Lady Yang stretched out her hand to show Yunliu the bracelet on her wrist, and also touched the hairpin on her head.
Yun Liu took a closer look, then smiled widely, exclaiming exaggeratedly: "Oh my, how come I haven't seen you for just one day, and you look so young and energetic all of a sudden! It turns out that it's all because of the good jewelry you chose! This bracelet is warm and delicate, which makes your wrist look even more slender; and this hairpin is unique and delicate, and it is the finishing touch when it is worn on your head!"
Yun Liu's sweet words made Old Yang very happy. He smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into slits, but he said angrily, "You are the only one who can talk with your little mouth."
Yun Liu saw this and immediately struck while the iron was hot. He leaned close to Old Lady Yang's ear and whispered mysteriously, "Old Lady, I'm telling you a secret. This shop is our own shop! So feel free to pick a few more things you like and just put them all in my master's account! My master has plenty of money, so you don't have to save for him!"
After saying this, the man winked at Old Lady Yang mischievously and smiled meaningfully, as if conveying some secret message that only the two of them understood.
That look was full of hints and tacit understanding, as if saying: "You should be able to understand what I mean!"
"Ha, this shop is actually opened by your family, Xingyun? Oh my God, how much money must it cost to open such a big shop!" Old Mrs. Yang couldn't help but open her mouth in surprise, exclaiming repeatedly.
