On this day, seeing Qiao Hongxi going out, the two quietly followed in the car as usual.

The carriage is rented from the carriage and horse shop. Songshi drives the carriage. It is rented in the morning and returned in the afternoon. It is rented again the next day if it is needed. Although the price is slightly expensive, it is very convenient.

What they are going to do, they can't leave any tails to be caught in the future, so they have to do it by themselves.

In the past two days, Qiao Hongxi has not gone anywhere except to go to the Hanlin Academy on duty or to go home.

But I only went out at this time this morning, obviously it was a holiday.

The two followed, and when they saw Qiao Hongxi came to a street selling antiques, they got off the carriage and followed. Followed Qiao Hongxi into a Wenwan shop.

Today, Qiao Hongxi is wearing a bamboo-blue Confucian shirt, with a square flat towel wrapped around his head, and holding a folding fan in his hand - the standard configuration for scholars.

But it has nothing to do with the powerful family.

It can be seen that the Qiao family is really badly defeated!

Moreover, Qiao Xuan deliberately took a look at the shop he came in. It was just a very ordinary shop on this street.

Thinking of more expensive things, can't Qiao Hongxi be able to buy it?

Qiao Hongxi really can't afford it.

He was carrying fifty taels of silver bills in his arms at the moment, intending to choose a good jade pendant.

Because he heard that this shop is good and cheap two days ago, and occasionally he can pick up a good leak, so he came here to try his luck.

How could Qiao Hongxi think that someone like him would be followed? Therefore, Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunyun had followed him for two or three days, but he didn't even notice it.

At this moment, he was picking and choosing jade pendants, and Shao Yunyun and Qiao Xuan were paying attention.

Qiao Hongxi finally settled on a piece, but the shopkeeper asked for 88 taels of silver.

Where can Qiao Hongxi afford it? Start haggling.

Who knew that Qiao Xuan interrupted: "Such a beautiful jade pendant, 88 taels of silver, is fair and cheap. If you don't buy it, put it down, I want it!"

Qiao Hongxi and the shopkeeper, who were cutting this jade pendant to forty taels of silver, looked at Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunyun subconsciously.

Qiao Xuan raised her eyebrows proudly, gave Qiao Hongxi a defiantly contemptuous glance, and said to Shao Yunyun: "Xiang Gong, this jade pendant is really beautiful, I like it very much!"

Shao Yunyun's face was rich and powerful, and he smiled without hesitation: "Then buy it! Eighty taels are not expensive, too cheap!"

Overjoyed by the shopkeeper, he smiled and bowed to the two of them: "You two are really good eyes, good eyes haha! The goods in the store are definitely worth the money!"

Qiao Hongxi's face turned green with anger, and said angrily, "You two, I'll come first!"

Qiao Xuan rolled her eyes: "Can you afford it?"

Qiao Hongxi: "..."

"If you want to buy it, then you have bought it, but I see that you are endlessly haggling, it doesn't look like you want to buy it! Since you don't want to buy it, you are not allowed to buy it?"

Shao Yunyun made up the knife: "My wife is right, if you don't buy it, please put it down! Why don't you look for it in Xiongtai, and find a piece worth forty taels?"

Qiao Xuan covered her mouth and giggled, "That's right! There must be forty taels worth of money in this store, right? Ask the shopkeeper."

Qiao Hongxi was so angry that his face turned red and white, and the whole person was shaking: "You, you—"

unacceptable!

He is a person with good face, but the Qiao family cannot make ends meet and is poor. He wanted to maintain a decent status, and he was worried about the decoration of his clothes almost every day. He finally saved up fifty taels and was about to choose a good piece of jade, but he was so unlucky!
