Chapter 497 Bao Qian smashes the glass ornaments

"She's not here. I'm in the shop today. If you need anything, please come to me!" Ji Xiaobei still had a smiling face.

Bao Qian glanced at her and raised her eyebrows: "Then please show me the latest models in the shop!"

"Glass ornaments, pendant bracelets, hairpins and headdresses, what do you need?"

Ji Xiaobei took her to the counter.

"Ornaments!"

Bao Qian said that she had seen the ornaments that her aunt gave to her grandfather as a birthday gift. They were valuable, elegant and had good meaning.

She also wanted one for her room.

Ji Xiaobei looked at Bao Qian's face, which was not particularly good.

That day, Mrs. Murong went to the Fu family to propose marriage, but was rejected.

Bao Qian must be furious.

She thought Bao Qian must be unlucky recently.

Ji Xiaobei took out a glass relief ornament of peace and joy.

There are four words engraved on it - "Peace and Joy".

There are two apples in the lower right corner, with bright colors, lifelike three-dimensional relief, high-end and beautiful, and good meaning.

Bao Qian glanced at it, and a gleam of light flashed in her eyes.

"Miss Baoxi, this little ornament of peace and joy is the only one in my shop. Do you like it?"

Ji Xiaobei put the ornaments on the table.

Bao Qian picked it up calmly, curled her lips and said, "It's quite rare, but I still feel like something is missing!"

Ji Xiaobei smiled and said, "Then let's go over there and take a look!"

Bao Qian took a step forward and couldn't help but lower her head to take another look. Her sleeve accidentally touched the ornament.

The ornament got caught on the tassel on her sleeve and fell to the ground with a plop.

Caixia screamed in fright.

The little maid beside Bao Qian was so frightened that she covered her mouth.

Bao Qian was stunned for a moment, her face darkened and she said, "What happened to your ornament? It fell down by itself and scared me!"

Ji Xiaobei's face suddenly darkened.

"Miss Baoxi, the ornaments in my house don't have legs. It was obviously you who touched them just now..."

"It's impossible that my girl knocked it off. Don't talk nonsense!"

The little maid shouted at Ji Xiaobei angrily.

Caixia is not going to do this anymore. The masters are talking. Is it your turn as a little maid to speak?

"Watch your mouth. How can you talk to my master like that?" Caixia stood beside Ji Xiaobei with her hands on her hips.

"You, are taking advantage of your power to bully others..." the little maid turned the tables.

Caixia glared and said, "You have to pay for my family's peace and happiness!"

Bao Qian looked at Ji Xiaobei and said disdainfully: "It's just a small ornament, how much can it be worth? Look how anxious the little maid is!"

Ji Xiaobei smiled and said:

"It is indeed a small ornament. Then Miss Bao Qian, please settle the bill first. One thousand two hundred taels of silver!"

Bao Qian's heart tightened: This is a scam!

so expensive?

Caixia straightened her chest and said proudly, "Girl, go to the counter over there to check out. I'll help you pack your peace and joy in a brocade box!"

Bao Qian was so angry that she gritted her teeth. She had been out for so long and didn't have much money on her.

She felt so bad about spending more than a thousand taels at once.

She made up her mind and said, "I told you, I didn't drop the ornament, so I won't compensate you for it!"

Having said that, she lifted her legs and walked out the door.

Caixia was so angry that she wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by Ji Xiaobei.

"Miss Baoxi, take care. Wait for me to take you home!"

Bao Qian and her maid ran away as fast as the wind.

Ji Xiaobei didn't want her to pay compensation, but her attitude and behavior were so infuriating.

Children, they should be taught a lesson.

Jiaojiao was worried and came over wearing a veil.

"Why are you here?" Ji Xiaobei lifted the veil and looked at her face. The redness and swelling had subsided a little.

"It's okay, I can't stay at home, come and take a look!"

Jiaojiao said.

Jiaojiao was worried because of Princess Qing's matter.

"Then you just look after the shop. I just need to go deliver some goods!"

Ji Xiaobei said with a smile, holding a brocade box in his hand.

Under Jiaojiao's surprised gaze, she walked out of the shop.

Caixia recounted what happened in the morning.

Caixia said worriedly, "Miss Ji went to Aunt Murong Baoqian's house by herself. Nothing will happen to her, right? It's obvious that Miss Baoqian is not a good person."

Jiaojiao smiled and said, "Don't worry, if Ji Xiaobei suffers a loss, she will no longer be called Ji Xiaobei!"

Thinking back to that time, she almost died in Ruo's house, and it was Ji Xiaobei who rescued her.

The Ruo family has so many servants, and Ji Xiaobei is alone. No one is smarter and braver than her.

Jiaojiao's lips curved up, if she were a man.

I must pursue her hard and get her.

"Master Jiaojiao, you must have thought of something good. You are smiling so happily!"

He Ye walked into the house.

"A rare guest, a rare guest, Master He hasn't been here for a long time!" Jiaojiao smiled and stood up from the stool, "What do you want to order today? The gold you deposited with us has not been spent yet!"

"I'm not buying anything today. I just happened to be passing by and brought some cakes to Mr. Qiu. There's a new pastry shop in South City. I heard they're delicious!"

He Ye put the box of pastries on the table and sat on the armchair beside it.

Jiaojiao has heard from her grandfather that he has promised to give Heye a foal.

Therefore, it is not surprising that He Ye presents cakes to his grandfather as a token of his filial piety.

"By the way, I want to change the rope of my jade pendant. This one doesn't match my clothes!"

He Ye took the jade pendant from his waist and placed it on the table.

"Master He, you have already changed the ropes of the jade pendants five or six times. Why don't you buy two more jade pendants? Each jade pendant has a different rope style and color, so you can match it with your clothes!"

As she spoke, Jiaojiao asked Caixia to bring over a tray of jade pendants.

He Ye was choosing with a smile on his face.

He picked out five jade pendants and Jiaojiao tied them with ropes for him.

He held his chin with his hand and watched Jiaojiao weaving the rope with her deft hands, her delicate fingers were as white and tender as green onions.

He Ye coughed lightly and quickly turned away.

"This is the money for the jade pendant!" He Ye took out a silver note from his pocket, put it on the table, and stood up.

"Lord He, Mr. He, the gold you deposited here has not been used up yet..." Jiaojiao shouted towards He Ye's back.

He Ye said without even turning his head: "Keep it in the shop!"

Caixia came over and said, "Miss, Lord He is so generous. He bought things from us without blinking an eye!"

Jiaojiao smiled but said nothing.

He Ye is a scheming person, but not annoying.

At the beginning, he came to buy things every day just to get close to his grandfather and buy a horse from his grandfather.

His grandfather promised to give him a horse, but he couldn't give him silver directly.

The horses my grandfather bred are priceless.

So he came to the shop to buy things and take care of the shop's business.

Caixia looked at her own girl in confusion.

She thought again about the way He Ye looked at the girl, and a bold idea came to her mind.

It would be nice if the girl could be with Lord He.

The girl is smart and cheerful, and Lord He is handsome and knows how to make the girl happy. It seems that the two of them have a lot to talk about and can never finish talking.

Thinking of this, Caixia smiled to herself.

Jiaojiao poked Caixia's head and said with a smile: "Silly girl, what are you so happy about?"
