Chapter 1088: Wan Bao Zhai
The Shen family has been cleaning up for the rest of the day, in the end, many people have moved from one place to another, just the old things they brought have to be registered one by one, and then arrange their whereabouts, this is the case with large families, ordinary things are often valuable, so it is good to use them or put them in the warehouse, even if you want to take them out and pawn them, then you have to write them down and then speak.
These days, sister-in-law Fang Yue is so tired that she has several fire bubbles on her mouth, and she can't cover it with several layers of fat powder. Shen Nanzhi also felt distressed when she saw it, so she offered to help her share part of the accounts. Fang Yue is also not polite, there is a sister-in-law who can help with him, and the two of them can naturally work together to be much faster. In addition, she was afraid that she would be busy with something, so now that someone shared it, she would be more leisurely.
After thinking about it, Fang Yue called Shen Zhixia to study and help together, but unfortunately she was a monkey, she was very serious in the first two days, and then she became more and more unable to sit still, and on the fourth day, she said that she was unwell, and she has not been here since.
It took seven days for these bits and pieces to be completely cleaned up, Shen Nanzhi was so tired that she lost weight, and she was so distressed that Shi stuffed her with a lot of good things and asked her to make up for her body. She naturally took advantage of the situation to steal a few days of laziness, and after her spirit was recuperated, it was already the eighteenth day of coming to the capital.
More than half a month has passed in a blink of an eye, and Shen Nanzhi feels incredible, in addition to going to the Shijiahou Mansion once these days, the second sister has come from her mother's house once. It's a pity that the family is urging tightly, and Mrs. Chen's condition is still not improving, so she only took a detour to buy medicine, talked to Shi for a while, and dragged Shen Nanzhi to rub it before leaving in a hurry.
Shen Nanzhi couldn't help but sigh: It's not easy to marry a wife! If the mother-in-law is sick, she will not be able to wear even bright clothes.
Remembering that the dress that the second sister wore when she came was only called a plain and clean, and the most ordinary hosta was inserted on her head, she felt distressed.
The climate in the capital is drier, and the family noticed that they were not comfortable when they came. Shen Nanzhi and a few children are okay, they are strong and strong, and Shi grew up here since he was a child, so he is even more adaptable. Only Rong Xiaoniang in Shen Yao's house had just given birth to a child, and she heard that she had a nosebleed when she got out of bed for several days, which scared the female envoy in the room and thought she had some terminal illness!
On this day, Shen Nanzhi went to ask Shi Shi for peace, and saw that there was a red lacquer and gold makeup box on her table, but it was not opened, and she couldn't help but be a little curious - Shi has preferred plain and clean all these years, and there are only a few hairpins to bring with him, and there are few fresh ones.
"Mother, what is this?" Shen Nanzhi sat down happily, "Mother finally wants to dress up?" ”
"This kid! I'm old, what do I do to dress up? Shi couldn't help but smile, pretending to be disgusted and gently patted her on the body, "Do you like the jewelry in this makeup box?" ”
Since he knew that Shi Shi was not interested in these, Shen Nanzhi was just deliberately teasing the stuffy man, and when he heard this, he walked over and opened the box, only to see a whole set of red agate neatly lying inside, from step shaking, hairpins to earrings, handpieces, everything is available, just looking at the dazzling luster when it is opened, it can also be seen that it must be a valuable thing.
Shen Nanzhi took care of the house, and knew at a glance that this was definitely not something that was originally in the Shen family, and couldn't help but be a little suspicious: "Mother, where did this come from?" ”
"Early this morning, the second shopkeeper of Wanbao Zhai sent it." Shi replied.
Wan Bao Zhai, as soon as you hear the name, you also know that it must be a place to sell treasure jewelry, and if you can take out a whole set of red agate jewelry of this color, it will definitely not be an ordinary small place.
"Our family has just come back, and the second shopkeeper of Wanbao Zhai has come to deliver something?" Shen Nanzhi smiled, "Isn't Mo someone my mother knows?" ”
Shi shook his head with a warm face: "Wanbao Zhai is the shop that I have only raised in these years when I am not in Beijing, and the second shopkeeper only said that it was a gift to congratulate the housewarming." But these things are all used by the little girl......" she said and looked at Shen Nanzhi, "It seems to have been turned into something sent by you!" ”
"Me? Mother, what you said is tormenting me, I just came to the capital, I am not familiar with the place, why did people give me a gift in Wanbaozhai? Shen Nanzhi hurriedly put the box back.
Shi Shi smiled disappreciatively, "Silly girl, our Shen family is also a little famous, no one mentions it after leaving Beijing, where can no one pay attention when he comes back now?" It's been less than a month, and people in the city feel that the moving affairs are cumbersome and haven't had time to move around, so I estimate that in a few days there will be a greeting post...... And you'll be thirteen years old in two months, so I'm afraid you'll be giving more gifts......"
Shen Nanzhi's face turned red, and he heard what Shi meant - that is, after a while, someone would start tirelessly proposing marriage! Although she doesn't care very much about her background on weekdays, because her parents don't like to mention the past, she has never regarded it as a capital to show off, but her background is there, what if she loses the throne? She also has a famous mother, a powerful brother, and an uncle who is the Hou Ye!
"However, the things in this box are still inconvenient to accept at will," Shi Shi said, "The second shopkeeper didn't say what was going on, you sent someone out to inquire about the market in the past two days, and in a few days you took someone to Wanbao Zhai to pay the silver - you have to go in person, if you send someone to replace you, I'm afraid Wanbao Zhai will not accept it." ”
Shen Nanzhi nodded firmly, "Mother, don't worry, I will handle this matter quickly!" ”
This is because it is not easy to push back the things sent by people, so as not to make people think that the Shen Mansion is not looking down on the Wanbao Zhai, and the second is that it is really unclear who is giving the gift and why, since they have paid the money, they will have an accident in the future.
After withdrawing from Chaoxiju, Shen Nanzhi sent someone out to investigate. The one who talked back and forth was a small guy sent by the Hou Mansion, called Shuncai. According to him, Wanbao Zhai opened in Baolin Hutong in the east of the city, and it is the largest brand selling jewelry and jade in the capital over the years. It is also the most frequent place for the noble family in Suri, and it is said that it made a fortune because there are many ingenious craftsmen in this Wanbao Zhai, and the jewelry looks that have become the most popular in the capital.
This set of red agate jewelry adds up to 600 taels of silver!
Shen Nanzhi felt more and more that someone was manipulating it behind his back, with such a famous name as Wanbao Zhai, where did he need to rush to meet the new people in Beijing? And with such a set of valuable things......
So he took enough silver, and two days later, Shen Nanzhi led people towards the Wanbao Zhai.
