After being reborn as a man, the woman improved her family's fortunes through education.

Chapter 669 Scattered Pearls 2

When the Jiang family servant arrived at the Xiao family's residence, it was already noon.

Even with a rush, the families were still somewhat scattered.

Jiang Feier opened the purse right in front of the servant, and was immediately dazzled.

"Why did Mingfei give me so many? Did your sisters get some too?"

"In response to Fifth Miss, all the young ladies have received some. The young master said that everyone should be treated equally, and that the best ones were selected and sent to each young lady."

The servant is right. Although Jiang Xiwen and Jiang Xiyue may win in terms of quantity, they are truly treated equally in terms of quality.

He packed up anything with a few minor flaws and sent it to Lin Yueniang, not because he wanted to keep the bad ones for his own mother.

These were meant for Lin Yueniang to grind into pearl powder and apply to her face, but of course, Lin Yueniang couldn't bear to part with them.

Making some small earrings as gifts for those around you is a good idea. Although they are a bit small and not perfectly round, they are still much better than most pearls you see on the market.

Jiang Xiaoqi gave all the colorful pearls he had initially picked out to his mother, and he didn't care how she used them.

After learning that her son had distributed ordinary-colored white pearls to several girls in the family, Lin Yueniang thought of Old Madam Jiang.

These grey pearls are elegant and dignified, quite suitable for the old lady.

The remaining pink, purple, and gold beads are a bit selective in terms of who they suit.

Lin Yueniang didn't intend to keep them all for herself. After a quick sort, she kept only twenty of each color.

I plan to take the rest to a jewelry shop to make a few more pairs of pearl earrings, which can be given as gifts during the Chinese New Year.

This is more impressive than sending gold or silver ingots. After all, his son is now a fifth-rank official, and the circles he moves in are naturally different from before. He needs to prepare in advance.

These colorful beads are rarely seen and their value is not transparent, making them the perfect gift for officials' wives.

Firstly, it avoids any suspicion of bribery, and secondly, it is more respectable.

Once the servant left the Xiao family, the "scattering pearls" mission was considered successfully completed.

After all, Miss Six's portion had been sent over before he left, and Miss Six is ​​currently the only unmarried daughter of the Jiang family.

The servant breathed a sigh of relief and drove the carriage back to report.

Like her sisters, Jiang Feier, who received a generous gift from her younger brother, decided to make herself a pearl necklace.

She vaguely remembered that when she was little, it seemed that only her eldest sister and second sister had received pearl jewelry from her younger brother.

However, the pearl jewelry of that time was worlds apart from that of today.

Has my brother struck it rich?

As expected of sisters, they were on the same wavelength at this moment.

Jiang Feier carefully put away the purse, intending to get up early the next day to go to the jewelry shop.

Jiang Wei'er, the only one in the Jiang family, was the first to receive the purse, but after glancing at it, she put the contents into her box.

The maid beside her asked curiously, "Miss, didn't the young master say this was for you to make a pearl necklace? Why did you put it away?"

"I don't leave the house much right now, so I don't need it for the time being."

"But the other young ladies should all have a share. If everyone gathers together during the holidays, and only the young lady doesn't get one, wouldn't that look bad?"

Those who know understand that Miss dislikes luxury, but those who don't might think that the young master is biased, giving it to the other young ladies while leaving you out.

"You're not wearing this pearl necklace just for yourself; it represents the shared dignity of the Jiang family's young ladies, and it also carries the young master's sentiments, which are more precious than pearls themselves."

Jiang Wei'er was momentarily stunned by what her personal maid had said. When did this girl learn so much?

"Who taught you all this? Did you come up with it yourself?"

The little maid blushed slightly, "It's because I've been playing with Sister Fuling these past few days. Sister Fuling knows so much."

Fuling? One of the head maids serving the lady.

Well, that's not surprising. Fuling has traveled all over the country with the lady and is quite the heroine.

The saying "Reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles" probably means this, right?

Sigh~ I'm still a frog in a well. I thought that after reading so many books, I had distanced myself from the ladies of the capital, but I didn't expect that I was still narrow-minded and could not even think as well as a maid.

However, Jiang Weier quickly came to terms with it. If you're not as good as others, just keep working hard to improve yourself. Why wallow in self-pity?

Everyone has admirable qualities that we can learn from, which is exactly what the teacher taught them: "Among three people walking together, there must be one who can teach me."

"Okay, I understand. Thank you for reminding me. I misunderstood."

"Come with me to the jewelry shop tomorrow. We'll find the most skilled master craftsman; we can't let Mingfei's efforts go to waste."

The maid was delighted to see that her mistress had come to her senses.

She was not happy that her mistress would listen to her, but rather that her mistress was an exceptionally insightful and open-minded person. It was her good fortune to follow such a mistress in this life.

"Okay, let's get up early and go, we'll definitely snag the best master chef!"

Jiang Weier chuckled, amused. Look at them, it's as if they're some kind of notorious bandits. They're not going to a jewelry shop to steal jewelry, they're going to kidnap people.

Jiang Xiaoqi distributed all the pearls in the box, leaving five large chests remaining.

Food that could be eaten was naturally sent to the small kitchen, and clothing that could be worn was sent to the family's embroiderers.

The rest were some minerals, most of which Jiang Xiaoqi recognized, such as amethyst, pink quartz, golden quartz, clear quartz, and even red and green phantom quartz.

These two items were later endowed with the attribute of attracting wealth. It is said that the red phantom quartz attracts RMB (Chinese currency), while the green phantom quartz attracts knives and music.

Whether it actually happened or was just a concept that the seller applied without any verification is impossible.

In any case, both types of crystals sold out, and their prices were driven sky-high within a certain period of time.

Jiang Xiaoqi tossed the scattered items into the space, since the space had now expanded to several hundred square meters with the materialization of Eleven.

He no longer needs to be stingy; there's also an external space, which is placed inside the built-in space in the same nesting manner.

Now Jiang Xiaoqi has an amazing score, plenty of space, and has never been so wealthy.

Some of the smaller system equipment that had been leaked before, which were either unusable or took up too much space, were recycled by Jiang Xiaoqi and exchanged for more useful points.

Jiang Xiaoqi, who currently holds hundreds of thousands of points, is still very frugal with how she uses them. This is probably a habit she developed since childhood, and it's hard to change it overnight.

However, when it comes to gold and silver, he spends money extravagantly and lavishly.

This contrasts sharply with their cautious approach to points.
