At this moment, the maids from Jinlu Pavilion came to greet several of them. The maids all wore uniform clothes and were well-trained.

Two maids came over, one was slightly older and respectfully asked the three of them if it was their first time to Jinlu Pavilion.

Jiang Wu nodded, it was indeed their first time entering Jinlu Pavilion.

The maid heard this but was not disrespectful at all. She introduced herself first and then asked with a smile: "Then Qiao'er, can you introduce me to the three girls?"

The three of them suddenly fell in love with Qiaoer, this girl is quite good.

Another younger maid saw that these people did not have the style of a wealthy family, they were dressed in ordinary clothes, and their attitude was not very enthusiastic.

Qiaoer then told her to bring Jiang Lu a cup of tea and asked Jiang Lu to sit and wait in the rest room next to her.

Qiaoer was very considerate and introduced to the three of them clothes with high price-performance ratio in the middle price range. Jiang Wei looked at the styles of these clothes carefully and found that they were much better than the clothes they usually ordered at home.

Both the workmanship, cutting and style are unique.

The three girls were a little excited when they saw these clothes. Jiang Yao was interested in a skirt with turmeric piping. If it was just this style, Jiang Yao wouldn't like it that much. What she likes is the hem of this dress, although it is plain.

It is white, but has irregular geometric patterns and dark patterns. This pattern is not visible when facing directly, but it will be faintly visible when you move around.

This kind of pattern is very modern and fashionable, and the craftsmanship is not something that ordinary embroiderers can do.

Jiang Mei shook her head at the two of them, indicating that she was not attracted to them.

Jiang Wu also had her eye on a dress with rippled green floral satin. When she asked about the price, which was fifty-eight taels, she put down the dress pretending to be calm without showing any signs of it.

Qiao'er understood and took Jiang Wu to look at lower-priced clothes without changing her attitude. Jiang Wu also politely thanked her and went to look at those clothes.

Although they are cheaper than the one just now, they are still clothes worth twenty or thirty taels or more.

In the Jiang family, they arrange to make three new clothes every quarter, because Jiang Wu learned housekeeping from the Tang family and the Qiu family. Every season, the clothes of the girls will not exceed twelve taels, but Jin

A piece of clothing in Luge only costs twenty or thirty taels, which is very luxurious for them.

For poor families, the whole family can eat for just a few taels of silver throughout the year.

The three girls all looked at Jiang Lu, but Jiang Lu didn't notice anything strange, and said happily: "Choose, the girl's family just needs to dress beautifully."

Jiang Wei was beating her heart, and she cleverly said that she was thirsty, so she went to drink a glass of water and went to Jiang Lu's side.

After the maid served the tea, she picked it up and took a sip. It turned out to be a fine Tieguanyin. The fragrance in the mouth was worth at least dozens of taels of silver or more than a pound.

He drank all the tea in one gulp and asked for more water so as not to waste it. Then he wiped his lips and asked quietly: "Dad, how much money did you bring?"

Jiang Lu thought Jiang Wei was afraid that he didn't bring enough money, so he confidently said to her: "You can choose with peace of mind, daddy has brought enough money."

See Jiang Wei insists.

He thought for a while, and even brought some silver that he didn't use on weekdays. After counting the more than 30 taels spent at restaurants and buying rouge and gouache, he calculated it and said: "There are still 43 taels.

"

It stands to reason that this is already a lot of money. In the past, when I went out to drink and eat meat with my brothers, I only spent one or two coins. This time, he brought so much money with him to be prepared. After all, who usually

He wouldn't carry a few kilograms of silver on his back. However, these silvers were still ordinary silver that he didn't use on weekdays. He was still thinking that when he went out, he should go to the accounting room and exchange them for silver notes worth ten taels.

Seeing Jiang Lu's proud look, Jiang A didn't want to undermine his self-confidence, but in order not to lose face too much, she still whispered to Jiang Lu: "Dad, a very ordinary piece of clothing here costs twenty

Count from a few taels."

Her original intention was to secretly remind Jiang Lu that they would only buy one as a token to avoid being unable to get off the stage later.

Who would have thought that Jiang Lu, who was used to being careless, suddenly stood up and said loudly: "Why is it so expensive?"

Everyone looked at them. Jiang Wei quickly apologized to others, pulled Jiang Lu to sit down, and whispered to him: "Dad, can you lower your voice? Do you want everyone to know that we can't afford it?"

Jiang Lu looked a little uncomfortable. He originally wanted to bring the three girls to buy clothes today, but he didn't expect that the clothes in Jinlu Pavilion were so ridiculously expensive.

When he came, he also asked the housekeeper. The girls at home usually ordered clothes for two or three taels of silver. He estimated that even if the clothes in Jinlu Pavilion were two or three times more expensive, each of the three girls would choose one.

It was enough. However, she didn't expect it to be so much higher than the budget.

Now this money is probably not enough to buy the cheapest two pieces. How can I buy three pieces?

Jiang Wen was about to discuss her ideas with Jiang Lu.

Several people came down from the third floor, and a man's voice said, "What's so expensive?"

The voice was very familiar, and Jiang Er looked up.

The person walking in the lead was Qin Fengxi. How could she expect that such a big shot would come to visit a woman's clothing store? She was surprised and said: "Why are you here?"

Seeing him, she remembered the last time Qin Fengxi sent her away with two coins.

When Jiang Lu saw Qin Fengxi, he quickly stood up and somewhat uncomfortably saluted Qin Fengxi and called him "General."

When Qin Fengxi saw Jiang Lu bowing and saluting without shouting, Jiang Lu was wondering, what did the general think of him?

He didn't talk to each other on weekdays, and he didn't even have many opportunities to look at these young generals. He was confused and boldly raised his head slightly to look at Qin Fengxi's expression.

But she saw him staring at Jiang Wen with a serious look on his face, but Jiang Wen pretended not to notice him at all.

Jiang Lu broke into a cold sweat. What is Qin Fengxi's status?

His daughter has no etiquette and is so indifferent to others. No wonder the general is unhappy.

Seeing that Jiang Wei was still sitting, Jiang Lu pulled her up and said not to be rude to the general.

Jiang Wei had no choice but to change her attitude immediately, put on a bright and bright smile, and saluted Qin Fengxi with compliments.

The maids in the room, Jiang Wu and Jiang Mei, all came over to salute Qin Fengxi.

With a faint smile on his handsome face, he looked at everyone and said gently: "No need to be polite, this is not a military camp."

Since you are not in the military camp, then who are you waiting for when you just put on this posture and insisted on being saluted by others?

When Qin Fengxi looked at what Jiang Wen was about to say, a delicate voice called her cousin from behind.

Then they saw Mu Langning being supported by a maid, and another maid carrying a complicated skirt. A group of people came downstairs carefully step by step.

Mu Langning wore a long skirt of light purple laminated gauze. There were many layers of laminated gauze, and the color went from dark to light from the inside to the outside, giving a strong sense of layering.

The combination of thick texture and light and floating feeling is full of craftsmanship.

Mu Langning looks like she is sixteen or seventeen. She is good-looking and her clothes are not bad. Because she is tall, plump and full of curves, she is the type that most men like.

It is especially suitable for men who have strict requirements on body shape.

Behind Mu Langning were the expressionless Jing Lei and the smiling Ming Feng.

When Mingfeng saw Jiang Wei, he smiled and said hello: "Little Pepper, we meet again."

There were two maidservants following behind, both holding a lot of clothes in their hands.

If Mu Langning could really buy them, they would be brought down from the third floor.

Sure enough, they are the same person but have different fates, and the gap suddenly emerged.

Mu Langning complained a little coquettishly to Qin Fengxi: "Why won't my cousin wait for me?"

They turned out to be cousins.

Qin Fengxi glanced at Mu Langning, sighed slightly and said good-temperedly: "Don't blame me, cousin. I'm used to walking around in the military camp."

Mo Yinniang asked the maid to wrap up the clothes Mu Langning selected.

Then he asked Jiang Lu and others to continue selecting.

When Jiang Wu saw so many people, she didn't want others to see their embarrassment that they couldn't afford it. She said to Jiang Lu, "Father, I'm a little tired. Let's come back next time."

Jiang Mei is also a sensible girl, so she also cooperated and said: "Yes, my eldest sister just recovered from her illness yesterday, so she must not be feeling well yet."

We finally came here once, and we don’t know when the next time will be. Jiang Wen didn’t want to disappoint her two sisters, so she took a step back and quietly put the two things in Jiang Lu’s hands. Jiang Lu quietly glanced at the things Jiang Wen handed over.

, glanced at Jiang Wei in surprise.

Jiang Wu smiled and said to Jiang Wu and Jiang Mei: "Finally, Dad Xiu Mu, it is not easy for us to enter Jizhou City once, and it will be troublesome next time. Why not bring the one you like this time."

Then he pointed at Qiaoer to the skirt that Jiang Wu had just noticed, and the sapphire blue floral skirt that Jiang Mei had been lingering on, and said, "Sister Qiaoer, please help me wrap these two skirts."

Qin Fengxi raised her eyebrows and looked at Jiang Wen. The layout of Jinlu Pavilion is like a modern shopping mall, with a back-shaped layout. From the upper floor, you can see the opposite side of the lower floor.

Just now in the corridor on the third floor, he clearly saw that she was interested in the ginger skirt.

Now the two items pointed out turned out to be the favorites of the two sisters.

And her little action just now completely caught his eye.

He couldn't help but think of the two pieces of silver he threw to her that day, exactly twenty taels.

I remember that she had an angry and disgusted look on her face, but now it comes in handy.

Jiang Lu saw that Jiang Wei actually gave him twenty taels of silver, plus his own forty-three taels. It was enough to buy two, but it was a little short of three.

He didn't expect that Jiang Wei would be so sensible at such a young age. Not only did she secretly give him her private money to make him look good, but she also generously showed that she didn't like clothes at all and bought clothes for her two sisters.

.

Jiang Lu felt a little regretful. He was so unreliable. He should have asked his mother for more money when he went out in the morning.

Seeing that Jiang Wu and Jiang Mei were about to refuse, Jiang Wu didn't want to delay any longer and make people laugh, so she immediately said: "Sister, you have just decided to get married and you have to dress beautifully. Even if it is an engagement, you can't refuse. Second sister

Yes, that suit of clothes is so beautiful. You are really discerning. It only looks good on you. I usually wield swords and guns. Although these clothes are very beautiful and exquisite, they are a bit cumbersome and are not suitable for me."

Then naturally and happily, he took Jiang Lu's arm and walked towards the shopkeeper, asking Jiang Lu to pay.

Jiang Lu was unhappy and kept silent. With a somewhat ugly look on his face, he placed the two pieces of silver that Jiang Wen just gave him on the counter, and then poured all his own silver on the counter.
