"As soon as she got close, Qingzhi immediately took her hand, with a bit of resentment on her face, "Cousin, you really treat me as an outsider. I just found out that you came to the capital. How could you not come to see me first when you came? Am I still your dear sister?"
In stark contrast to her cousin, Qingzhi was particularly talkative. Liang Ying smiled as she listened to her complaining to her as soon as they met.
When Zhou Qingzhi finally stopped, she wondered why her cousin didn't react at all? Then she realized that she was holding her cousin's hand, so she quickly let go.
Liang Ying was able to sign to her with her free hands: "I dare not bother Madam Hanlin."
Qingzhi could understand sign language. To be precise, everyone in the Zhou family, including the servants, more or less understood it.
Liang Ying still didn't know how Zhou Huailin did it. Oh, Qingzhi did tell her that she was fooled by her cousin with a lot of treasures because she could take the results to her cousin every day to receive rewards.
Qingzhi smiled and patted her: "Okay, you can still tease me. "She was actually a carefree person and didn't really care about these things, so she snorted and let it go, and then she changed the subject, "You don't know, after my cousin knew that I had an appointment with you, he repeatedly warned me."
She deliberately lowered her voice and became serious, imitating Zhou Huailin's words: "Your cousin's wife is not in good health, don't tire her out."
"She likes quietness, don't bother her too much."
"Oh," Zhou Qingzhi learned a few sentences and began to shake her head, "Look how nervous he is! And before, before he let you meet us for the first time, he was so nagging that I even suspected that my cousin was possessed by someone. He has never said so many words to me since he was a child. At that time, I thought my cousin's wife was a porcelain doll that would break at the touch. "
With Qingzhi around, it will never be quiet, but Liang Ying likes her noise, so she smiled and listened to her fast speech.
"But..." Zhou Qingzhi said that her cousin was still concerned about Liang Ying's situation, "Cousin, is your leg disease recurring? "
I've gotten much better in the past two days." Liang Ying replied.
Zhou Qingzhi supported her and smiled, "Don't worry, I went shopping yesterday and found some jewelry. You can just choose them."
She didn't dare to let Liang Ying walk too long.
Liang Ying didn't object. She was not familiar with the capital, so she let Qingzhi lead the way and entered a jewelry store.
"Mrs. Lin is here!" As soon as they entered, the shopkeeper greeted them warmly. Those
who can open such a large jewelry store in the capital must be shrewd people. They are very familiar with all the ladies and young ladies, not to mention that Zhou Qingzhi is a frequent visitor to their house.
Qingzhi is also familiar with the place: "Shopkeeper, can I keep the Zi Yan Pavilion I ordered?"
"It's kept! It's kept! Please come this way." While leading the way, he looked at Liang Ying twice inconspicuously and quickly retracted his gaze.
Seeing that the face was unfamiliar, he guessed in his heart who this was.
"In this Linglong Building, just sit in the private room, and they will bring the latest gold and silver jewelry to you for you to choose. "After that, she lowered her voice again,"This is the treatment for distinguished guests."
Liang Ying smiled: "That's really thanks to you."
Her gestures in sign language caused the shopkeeper who led the way to look over here twice more unconsciously.
As Qingzhi said, after they sat down, servants brought the best tea, and the shopkeeper also ordered people to bring over all the jewelry that Zhou Qingzhi liked yesterday.
"Cousin, please choose quickly."
Liang Ying was not very interested in these, but she picked them out of Qingzhi's face. Every time she picked up an item, the shopkeeper would introduce it to her incessantly.
So Liang Ying picked up two pieces at random and put them down again. She pulled Qingzhi's sleeve, and when the other party looked over, she indicated: "I want to see the jade pendant."
"Jade pendant? "Qingzhi was slightly puzzled, but she didn't think much about it and immediately asked the shopkeeper to prepare it. Not long after, a lot of jade pendants were brought in.
Liang Ying was more careful this time, until a white jade pendant caught her attention. When she picked it up, she didn't know where she touched, and the originally whole jade pendant suddenly separated, which scared her.
"Madam, you have a good eye." The shopkeeper continued with a smile, "This jade pendant can be put together, but it can also be divided into two." As he said, he stretched out his hand to completely separate the cracked jade pendant, and it really became two jade pendants of different shapes.
Liang Ying's eyes lit up.
"Look," seeing her interest, the shopkeeper introduced it in more detail, "The two koi on this jade pendant, when put together, are the pattern of Yin and Yang Bagua."
Liang Ying was already moved, and now she felt even more satisfied. After taking it from him, she played with it in her hands, and the texture felt top-notch.
She looked at Qingzhi, and without words, Qingzhi understood: "Do you want to buy it? "
Liang Ying nodded.
When Zhou Qingzhi heard this, she immediately sat up straight: "Okay, this is it, Boss, wrap it up, I'll come later..."
Before she finished speaking, Liang Ying quickly grabbed her.
