Chapter 249 Urging marriage
"Miss Su, be careful."
Su Zhihui took two steps back and was supported by Dong Shuang in time. Her face turned red instantly. Oh no, this was too rude.
He hurriedly gave Shen Qianan a dignified salute, "Sorry, Mr. Shen."
Then she walked outside with a red face, and Dong Shuang hurriedly followed her.
Looking at the figure hurriedly walking away, Shen Qian'an's words "no problem" were stuck in his throat.
He raised his eyebrows slightly. This Miss Su was Ah Li's guest. She looked dignified and graceful when she had her coming-of-age ceremony just now. However, her excitement just now was inconsistent with her previous expression. It seemed that she was trying to confuse outsiders.
He shook his head and walked towards Shen Li's yard with the box in his hand.
After seeing Su Zhihui off, he returned to his room and found an exquisite sandalwood box on the table.
Sit down. This should have been sent by her when she was sending Ah Hui away. She just sensed a breath approaching. There was no malicious intent. The most important thing was that she had guessed who it was, so she didn't stop it.
He raised his hand and opened the box. Inside was a set of sparkling ruby facets. Judging from the quality of the gems, they should have been cut from the same diamond.
Shen Li opened the second layer, revealing a hairpin and a jade pendant.
This jade pendant looks very familiar. I picked it up and took a closer look. Isn't this the jade pendant that Pei Yu carried with him at the beginning? It has unique patterns and an incomprehensible design on it.
However, this jade pendant seemed to have some meaning. Why did he just give it to me like that?
Suddenly I felt the jade pendant in my hand was a little hot, but he was not here now, so I had to put it away and return it to him when I saw him again.
She put down the jade pendant and picked up the jade hairpin in the box. The material of this jade hairpin was extraordinary, but the carving workmanship seemed to be a little unfamiliar, and there were slight flaws in some places.
However, the auspicious cloud pattern at the end of the hairpin looks very familiar.
An absurd guess suddenly arose in her mind: Could it be that this was carved by Pei Yu himself?
hiss!
This is a bit difficult to do.
During the time they were apart, she was so busy that she had completely forgotten about him. If it weren't for the gift that suddenly appeared today, she didn't know when she would have remembered Pei Yu.
But now it seems that this guy is in deep trouble!
Difficult!
Forget it, he’s not here anyway, and it’s still early for the two-year appointment, and he may not come after two years!
Thinking of this, Shen Li put the jade pendant into the space and placed the other jewelry on the dressing table.
"Ali."
"Fourth brother, come in."
He held a box in his hand and pushed it in front of Shen Li, "This is a gift from your fourth brother."
"Thank you, fourth brother."
Shen Li was very happy to receive gifts, especially those from her family. Although she also often bought gifts for her family, relationships need to be managed, and only when there is give and take can they last long.
"See if you like it?"
Shen Li shook her head, "We'll take it apart tonight."
"Row."
"By the way, Fourth Brother, how many days will you stay this time?"
"After spending the Dragon Boat Festival at home, I will return to the academy the day after tomorrow."
"That's okay."
The brother and sister chatted for a while, and then Shen Qianan got up and left.
I have been very busy today during my half-day break. Some time ago, I made some rice dumplings for customers to try, and then a lot of them were pre-ordered. I was busy until today, and finally finished making all the pre-ordered rice dumplings and sending them to various homes.
Shen Li's zongzi fillings adopted modern diversity and were improved in accordance with today's tastes. A large number of sweet and salty ones were sold. In just five days, she earned 1000 taels of silver by selling zongzi.
As usual, the rice dumplings did not sell well and were only sold to the store’s regular customers.
If it sells well, it will attract too much hatred. Harmony is the most important thing in business, and it is not good to have too many enemies.
Of course, if someone voluntarily offers himself to die, I will not show mercy.
After dinner, Shen Li sat in her room with a pile of gift boxes in front of her.
I rubbed my hands and decided, hehe, today I will experience the ancient version of opening a blind box!
Picking up one at random, Shen Li would mark the box every time she received a gift.
Of course, you know who sent you the mark. Otherwise, why would you make the mark? Isn’t that bullshit?
This was sent by Lu Nian. There are two boxes, one big and one small. The big box contains a piece of clothing. I found the small box based on my memory. Inside is a set of jewelry that matches the clothes and both are very beautiful.
The little girl put a letter in the box. When she opened it, the general meaning was that she couldn't come because her brother was busy and wouldn't let her go out alone. Most of the letter was just these few sentences.
He shook his head and smiled, and it turned out that he still had a bit of childishness.
Next came the gifts from family members, ranging from rouge and powder to clothes and jewelry, quite a complete collection.
After dismantling the items, looking at what was on display, they must have discussed it beforehand, and none of them were repeated.
There was one last box, which was light and should be from Lu Jing. When Shen Li opened it, she found that this guy did not give her any jewelry or jade, nor any rouge or powder, but instead gave her a land deed.
Well, although it is a light one, this gift is indeed quite valuable. However, compared to Pei Yu's, it seems lighter, but it is also very hot!
He pressed his temple and opened the door. It was a shop in Suzhou. This shop was exactly what he needed now.
Forget it. When I have time, I'll go and ask about the prices in the shops in Suzhou City. Next time we meet, I'll convert it into silver and give it to Lu Jing. If he doesn't accept it, then I won't accept it either.
After putting away the gifts, I walked back to the room, took a shower, and started my nightly routine.
Shen Li was the only one in her yard. The servants in the house could only clean outside the yard and take care of the flowers and plants. They would not enter her room without her permission.
As the Dragon Boat Festival is approaching, Shen Li has not gone out of the store these days. She will come to the store if there is any matter.
On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, Shen Li took her family to the county town early in the morning, intending to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival in the county town. There was a dragon boat race on the riverside at noon, so they booked a private room on the riverside a month in advance, otherwise they would not be able to reserve it if they were late.
It was the first time for the little one in Lin Cuicui's arms to ride in a carriage. He was extremely excited and kept laughing.
Whenever I smile, saliva starts to flow down the corners of my mouth, and I have had to change bibs many times.
Shen Yuanzhou wanted to raise his hand to pinch the little guy's cheek, but Lin Cuicui knocked him away, "Don't pinch, don't you see that Ah Chi is drooling?"
"So, I'm just going to pinch his cheeks." He was also afraid that his eldest nephew's saliva would get on his hands.
"No, you are not allowed to pinch."
"Alright," Shen Yuanzhou stretched out his finger and poked the fair and tender cheek, "I won't pinch it, I'll just poke it gently, that's ok."
Lin Cuicui slapped his hand away in annoyance and said unhappily, "If you like it, just give birth to it yourself. I'll ask a matchmaker to find one for you tomorrow."
