"What do you think of this?" Ye Qiu picked up a pearl hairpin and asked.
"The pearls aren't smooth enough, but the craftsmanship is quite delicate. Brother, are you buying this for your future sister-in-law?" Ye Jing laughed as she looked at him.
"Why do you say that? Why not say it's for you?"
"Because I prefer all sorts of gemstones. Brother seldom gives me pearls, but today most of what we're looking at are pearls."
"You're quite clever." Saying this, Ye Qiu turned to the shopkeeper, "Do you have anything better?"
"Sir, we do have better pearls, shipped from the South Sea. However, since they're too precious, we haven't made them into finished products. If you truly want them, you can place a custom order."
"Show me the pearls first!"
"How did you know that Sister Zhong Yi likes pearls?"
"When Lord Zhong Jian was stationed in Fusheng, they produced sea pearls there. I thought she ought to like them."
