    On the second floor, the owner opened the door of a room and let them in.

    You Gan walked in front, and Qing Wan followed behind him.  The shopkeeper did not enter the room in a hurry, but observed Qing Wan from behind: she was wearing a beautiful emerald green dress, the bright green satin had dark patterns of silver threads;  The cuffs, lapels and skirt are all embroidered with layered lotus leaves. The hem is very wide, and there are eight pieces. When you walk, the lotus leaves float, like lotus growing every step of the way; she is wearing a bright red snow fox coat,  A simple Liuyun bun is combed on the head, an ice silk tassel and flower-shaped jade hairpin are inserted obliquely, and a pair of tear-shaped jade earrings are placed around the ears. The snow-like skin is charming and clear, just like a flower.  Delicate and blooming lotus - elegant and indifferent reveals a kind of charm, and there is a bit of gentleness in the charm.

    [1] "Ode to Jade" by Wei Yingwu. Poem

    Seeing that Qing Wan did not sit down after entering the room, the shopkeeper said: "Miss, sit down as you like!"

    "I'll just stand up." After that, he turned his face to the wall and admired the calligraphy and paintings on the wall.

    After the shopkeeper sat down, he asked Youqian: "Mr. Zhen, what do you need today?"

    You Gan laughed, "Just show my girl a casual look."

    Hearing Yougan said that she was his daughter, the shopkeeper secretly laughed: An unmarried woman would not have a hazy topknot.  But he didn't point it out, so he teased, "Don't be reluctant to spend money just because your daughter is well-behaved. Why do you keep so much money, and you can't have children."

    "It's not that I don't want to spend, the key is that the girl didn't like it."

    "I didn't like one item in such a big store?" After finishing speaking, she said to Qing Wan, "Miss, don't just think about saving money for your father!"

    Qing Wan still turned her back to the shopkeeper, so she pretended not to hear it.

    The shopkeeper smiled, "Miss, don't just look at the price marked on it My father and I are acquaintances, so we can get a discount"

    "Don't ask her, talk to me!" Youqian asked, "What good things do you have here? Quickly show it to me."

    "There are a lot of things! But let me think about which one is the most suitable for your daughter to wear." Immediately, the shopkeeper stopped talking and looked at Qingwan's back quietly.

    It is often said that the beauty of a woman can only exude a charming charm after years of experience, and only after washing away the eye-catching lead can a subtle and calm temperament bloom.  Just like that emerald, after hundreds of millions of years of suffering, melting with frost, water, fire, and skin, and after being reborn, it exudes a icy and subtle charm.

    Seeing the shopkeeper looking engrossed, Yougan interrupted him and said, "Hey, hey, hey, I can't finish looking at it, why don't I want to buy jewelry!"

    The shopkeeper said in admiration: "Like jadeite, it doesn't have to be beautiful, graceful, and luxurious on the outside, but it must be rich and delicate inside."

    Yougan asked: "You mean my girl is suitable for wearing jadeite?"

    "Yeah, but I'm not sure."

    "Why are you still not sure, you don't see what she wears on her head" At some point, Qingwan secretly pulled out the hairpin, "Uhthe ones on her ears are those emeralds"

    "Hey, jadeite is different from jadeite." The shopkeeper turned to Yougan and said, "Can you make Ling Ai turn around and look back?"

    "Didn't you just read it!"

    "I didn't pay attention just now."

    Yougan was helpless, and muttered, "I bought this jewelry, and I brought it to the matchmaker" Then he said to Qingwan, "Wan'er, turn around and let shopkeeper Huo look at it for you to see if it suits you."  What jewelry to wear."

    Listening to Youqian asking her to turn around, it's not good to pretend that she didn't hear it anymore, so she turned around slowly - and saw her red lips on her pink face, her expression was shy, her beauty was like pink peach petals, her demeanor  There are mountains and orchids in between.  The hair that had been pulled out of the hairpin was draped sideways in front of the shoulders like magic, and the small face with plain and elegant face smiled faintly.

    The two big men stared at him, Qingwan felt a little embarrassed, so she reached out and tapped her small nose to hide her shameful face, and the elegant orchids embroidered on the cuffs of a pair of soft and slender catkins set off even more.  She showed her onion-like fingers, and her pink lips were glittering and translucent, and they curved slightly into a beautiful arc.  The pair of light blue pendants on Ruyu's earlobe can dance slowly with the slightest wind.

    Shopkeeper Huo stood up and strode into the next room.

    Not long after, he took out a small mahogany box, walked directly to Qingwan and handed it to her, "Open it and have a look!"

    Qingwan held the mahogany box, but didn't dare to open it, and looked at Yougan.

    Yougan said: "Open it!"

    Qingwan pulled the hook and lifted the lid of the box, her eyes lit up and she smiled.?Toad.  Fighting poison with poison, the inside is filled with wormwood, and its smell is used to drive away insects and evil spirits.

    23. No step

    An ancient ornament.  Jade pendants of various shapes are threaded into a string and tied around the waist with colored threads, initially used to hold down the hem of the skirt.  When wearing it for walking, the sound is urgent and appropriate.  It is mainly to restrict women's walking. If the rhythm is disordered, it will be considered impolite. The ancients paid great attention to this.

    24. Necklace

    ?It originated from the custom of "robbery marriage" during the transformation period from matrilineal clan to patrilineal clan in primitive society.

    At that time, women's social status gradually declined, while men's economic status gradually improved.  During the formation of the system of husbands and husbands, men often plundered women from other tribes or took women captured in war as wives.  According to "Book of Changes. Trapped": "Trapped in stone, occupied by thorns; entered his palace, but his wife was not murdered." It means that after the war, the wife was captured by the outside tribe.  In order to prevent these women from escaping during the war or at night, the victors often put a wire or rope in the shape of a necklace around the women's necks.  After the establishment of the husband's residence system, some places still retain this custom, but only on the premise that a marriage contract has been concluded, and "grabbing" is used as a form of wedding, and the wires or ropes around the neck have also evolved.  It becomes a necklace and becomes a token of marriage contract.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
