Upon hearing the news brought by Liu Yun, Su Jing and Su Wan performed a face change in perfect harmony.
In an instant, the smile on his face turned into speechlessness.
There must be something wrong with the Ningyuan Earl's Mansion. It keeps asking them to play here and there.
I have found several reasons to refuse the offer in the past few times. They all said that I was busy, busy with social activities, busy with ancestor worship, and busy with business. This time I really don’t know how to refuse.
After all, it was an invitation from the Earl's Mansion, so it was really a loss of face to refuse it over and over again.
They say things can only last three seconds, so if you refuse this time, it might be a bit unjustifiable.
So the two brothers and sisters looked at each other and said tentatively at the same time:
"Want to go?"
Even their expressions and tone of voice are exactly the same, they are really brothers and sisters.
"I think we'd better go!" They spoke at the same time again, and both of them couldn't help but be amused by this tacit understanding.
"I have already rejected invitations from the Earl's Mansion several times. It would be a bit unwise to refuse again. Brother, let's go there once. Anyway, you will take office in a few days, and there is no need to see them again in the future."
"Well, you are right, the face of the Earl's Palace must be given, otherwise we should say that we are showing off." Su Jing thought about it. Although he was the number one scholar, he did not have much official position after all, so he would not offend the Earl's Palace.
His whole family is now in Xiangzhou, so as not to offend anyone and be punished.
As for the Earl's Mansion, their patience was limited. After being rejected several times, the arrogant Earl and Countess were already very impatient and privately scolded the Su Jing brothers and sisters for not knowing how to appreciate others.
"Go back to the Tieba and see what time it is. If we go on an outing, we should not only be invited, but there should also be other famous ladies and young men from prominent families. We won't be embarrassed after going."
Liu Yun received the order, nodded and went to reply.
The outing day is tomorrow. Considering that Su Jing will leave to take office in a few days, the preparations are relatively hasty.
The three brothers and sisters left the house and went straight to Bingji Hall, just in time to catch up with the ribbon-cutting ceremony of Bingji Hall.
Qiuniang was dressed in red today, very festively dressed, and the cinnabar at the end of her eyes made her eyes even more enchanting.
She accurately located the group of people Su Wan was in, nodded and smiled at her as a greeting.
Su Wan applauded and responded to her.
Bingjitang opened today, and the Bingji Jade Bone Cream is limited to 100 copies. After three days, it will be limited to only 100 cans per month. Which days will be available and which days will not be available are all uncertain factors.
Good things cannot be bought anytime you want. Only hunger marketing can ensure long-term popularity.
Bingjitang also has many items that are hard to see on the market. Qiu Niang has brought a group of people here. The monthly silver is not as good as theirs. Each person earns eight taels of silver a month. They are all good at work.
In addition to beauty creams, hand creams for hand protection, and even different colors of eyebrow powder, cinnabar, cinnabar, and lip balm, Qiuniang can do it all.
Su Wan's two hundred taels a month was simply not worth it.
After the ribbon-cutting ceremony was completed, customers waiting to go in and make purchases filed in at the entrance of Bingjitang.
The rich went straight to the second floor, and ordinary people also started shopping on the first floor.
All in all, business was easy to do, and soon the volume of transactions started to increase.
Su Wan slowly walked in with Su Jing and Su Yi, listening to the chattering discussions among the women there.
"Wan Wan, whatever you like, my brother will buy it for you." Su Jing expressed her position beside her.
"And me, I have money, so I can buy it for you." Su Yi has a few hundred taels of savings now, so he is quite generous to his sister.
"Then I won't be polite." Su Wan didn't hesitate. Anyway, she just had to control herself.
I already had a lot of lip balm at home, as well as a lot of jewelry and beads, so I just bought a few boxes of ordinary beauty creams, which cost ten taels of silver a jar.
Qiuniang asked someone to bring her red date tea specially chilled with ice cubes to drink, which was very considerate.
After all, she is the big boss behind the scenes, and everything must be done with her first. This is a necessary condition for a qualified employee.
"Have you selected it yet?" Su Jing was a little confused when she saw how fast she was.
It’s not that girls are very picky when choosing things, especially those that are used on themselves. Why is Wanwan so casual?
In fact, she could use the popular items in the store whenever she wanted, so she was more perfunctory and came here just for inspection.
"Well, I've chosen it." Su Wan nodded seriously.
"Then I'll pay the bill." Su Jing took the things in her hands and went to the counter, but was stopped by Su Yi.
"I'll do it, brother. Keep the money you have and use it over at Xuanhe. Save some money. I have a painting studio to make money. I'll do it."
"That won't work. I'm the eldest brother. It's rare for me to go out with Wanwan to buy something. How can I ask you to pay the bill? It's outrageous."
The two brothers started to argue, and everyone wanted to pay.
"Let me do it!"
"It's better for me to do it. I'm your big brother and I should pay the bills."
Su Wan looked at this, then that, and finally she stopped her:
"Okay, eldest brother, fifth brother, stop fighting. How about each of you getting half of it?"
At this time, we can only serve a bowl of water, so that no one has any objection.
Su Jing and Su Yi looked at each other and thought it was feasible. They each took two boxes of products and went to pay the bill.
Su Wan looked at them and smiled helplessly, but at the same time, she felt warm and satisfied in her heart.
It turns out that this is what it feels like to be pampered by your family.
While Su Jing and the others were away, Qiuniang found an opportunity to move to Su Wan's side, patted her on the shoulder, and stuffed her with a rectangular mahogany box.
Su Wan looked back and saw Qiuniang, looked around and asked her what was wrong.
"This is a special order from the young master. The latest batch of pearls was sent. I selected the best pearls to make a necklace for you."
Jiang Yu had someone specially make a pearl necklace. Su Wan couldn't help but feel her heart beat faster when she thought of the name.
Blushing, she took the wooden box and stuffed it into her wide sleeves, with a secret pocket sewn inside to hold things.
Su Wan was glad that she was wearing clothes with large hidden pockets today, otherwise she wouldn't be able to fit them in.
"Thank him for me." Su Wan whispered to Qiuniang while looking at the backs of Su Jing and Su Yi lining up to check out, as if they were thieves.
Seeing her like this, Qiuniang couldn't help feeling cute, so she covered her mouth and snickered.
As expected, the girl is the most beautiful and lovely at her age, and she likes her not to mention the young master.
"You'd better wait until he comes back and tell him personally. I'll go and get busy."
Qiuniang joked in a teasing tone, patted her shoulder lightly and turned around to greet the guests.
Su Wan blushed, her cheeks were slightly red, and the affection in her heart rose sharply.
"What are you laughing at? Are you blushing like this?" When Su Jing came back, she found her sister standing alone and smiling stupidly.
"No, I just feel happy. I'm happy that my brothers dote on me so much." Su Wan's smile grew even wider, her pear troughs sinking deeply, and her eyes even curled up with laughter.
