Linglong, despite her steady demeanor, displayed her childlike heart upon seeing her mother. Like showing off a treasure, she opened the jewelry box and said, "Mom, look." The jewelry box was not large, but it had three layers.
On the top layer were scattered a dozen pieces of gold and silver hairpins, rings, and earrings, all embedded with gemstones and pearls, suitable for young girls; the second layer was a set of silver-gilt jewelry in a plum blossom design, with eight pieces including bracelets and earrings; the third layer held a set of red gold headdress studded with tiny gemstones, even Bai Fu's family was a bit surprised to see it.
It's not that she's shallow and has not seen good things; rather, such headdress bestowed upon a young maid was a bit excessive. The tiny gemstones were only the size of millet grains, but their colors were vivid, paired with pure red gold and exquisite craftsmanship, such a set of headdress might be worth two hundred taels of silver.
