Chapter 47: Little Thief + Shopping
Su Qing's door opened quietly, and a figure crept silently to Su Qing's bedside.
He lowered his head again to confirm that Su Qing was asleep, and carefully pulled out the thin rope with a small gourd hanging from Su Qing's neck under the weak light. When he saw the small gourd tied to the rope, the black shadow person was very happy. The next moment, he took out a delicate pair of scissors from his pocket, just needing to cut off the rope would be fine.
But the next moment he was stunned, what kind of thread can't be cut off. It's really a treasure, even a single thread is extraordinary. It seems that in order to get something, it can only be snatched from Su Qing's head, but doing so would wake Su Qing up.
He thought for a moment and decided to give up this action, looking for another opportunity to make his move. Anyway, the future is long, the black shadow quietly exited the room and closed the door. The room returned to its original state, as if no one had come before.
When the door closed quietly, Su Qing opened her eyes calmly on the bed.
Since someone approached her room at midnight, Su Qing had noticed. She pretended to know nothing all along, wanting to see what the other party wanted to do.
It's indeed a stimulating and interesting game, so let's see who can withstand the torture.
Su Qing thought that the little thief must have been furious at this moment, and in the end, he failed because he couldn't cut off a thread. The thread that tied the small calabash was made of colorful silkworm silk in space, thinking that ordinary things could not be broken.
As for the person who entered Su Qing's room, he was now lying on the bed, tossing and turning. He didn't expect that what he had sworn to be a small matter in front of his master would now end in disappointment. Fortunately, he hadn't startled Su Qing, so he still had a chance.
Those who think they are hiding well without being exposed, but with Su Qing's ability, what can escape her eyes? It's just that Su Qing thinks it's more interesting to make things even messier, and only then is it worth appreciating the show. Catching a mouse with one bite at the beginning is not fun at all.
The next morning, Su Qing pretended to know nothing and did what she had to do. The seven of them had breakfast at a restaurant, then started their shopping trip under the leadership of three local Hong Kong people.
At that time, Hong Kong was still a British colony, different from the mainland where capitalism reigned. Hong Kong was an economic hub, rapidly developing, and also known as a paradise for food and shopping. China and Britain had already reached an agreement, believing that in two years' time, Hong Kong would be able to return to its motherland. Now Su Qing just needed to enjoy herself.
For women, shopping is an enjoyable thing that never gets old, always passionate about strolling around. However, most boys don't like strolling around. This time, seven people took action together, and three of the boys were destined to be porters.
Beautiful clothes, handbags, perfumes, jewelry, which woman doesn't like? Coming to a shopping mall, here gathers many world-famous brands, such a place can't be found in the country. Hermès, Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Tiffany, Cartier, Burberry... It's really a shopping paradise for rich people, gathering world-famous brands. As long as you have enough money, you can take away your favorite goods.
Su Qing wasn't very interested in these luxury goods, but since she was here anyway, it wouldn't hurt to pick out a few items and bring them back as gifts for her family.
Others rushed to their favorite brand counters, and Su Qing also walked towards the Hermès counter.
Su Qing wasn't particularly interested in luxury goods, but as the young lady of the Su family, she couldn't help but be familiar with them, if only to discern the other person's social status. As for whether clothing and jewelry were high-end or not, Su Qing had her own unique way of distinguishing between them.
As soon as Su Qing came to the counter, the salesperson immediately went forward with enthusiasm. Although Su Qing didn't have any luxury brands on her, the noble temperament that came from within her bones was something that people couldn't ignore.
Anything that Su Qing's eyes scanned or her hands touched, the salesperson would give a detailed introduction. However, Su Qing just smiled and didn't believe the salesperson's words completely; what she saw with her own eyes and felt with her own hands was the most real thing.
Su Qing saw a red scarf, the color was bright and festive, and the texture was also excellent, warm and smooth. Su Qing thought that this scarf would be very suitable as a gift for her mother, imagining her mother wearing it, her mouth curved up with excitement.
The salesgirl next to her saw Su Qing staring at this red scarf for the longest time with a smile on her face, and judged that Su Qing might have the possibility of buying it.
"Miss, this scarf suits your temperament very well, and you will look even more beautiful if you wear it."
The salesperson enthusiastically praised the product, hoping Su Qing would be excited and pay for it immediately. This idea was clear to Su Qing, but what the other person didn't expect was that Su Qing wasn't buying it for herself.
Su Qing didn't mind much either, she just smiled and said.
"I sold it as a gift for my mother."
The sales lady felt a bit embarrassed when she heard that, and it turned out that she hadn't asked the customer who they were buying for before. She had just thought that the scarf really suited Su Qing. However, this salesperson quickly adjusted her mood and continued to smile and chat with Su Qing.
"Being able to give birth to such an excellent daughter like you, compared to your mother who is a gentle and noble lady. This scarf will surely be liked by your mother."
Su Qing felt that the salesgirl's adaptability was strong, and although her words were somewhat flattering, they made people feel comfortable listening to them. Moreover, Su Qing had indeed taken a liking to this scarf, so she generously paid for it.
The waiter saw Su Qing buy the scarf so readily and thought that he would get a lot of commission, so he served more enthusiastically and quickly packaged the scarf and handed it to Su Qing.
Then Su Qing chose a pair of simple and elegant cufflinks for her father, and an earl's watch for her brother. Su Qing originally wanted to choose a gift for her grandparents as well, but unfortunately didn't find anything suitable. Su Qing thought about going to other places to take a look, maybe she could find something suitable.
Su Qing was thinking about whether there were any suitable goods for herself when her cousin Su Lisha, who had never been friendly with Su Qing, came to find her.
Su Qing looked at the big and small bags in Su Lisha's hands, and couldn't help but feel suspicious. Her second uncle and aunt were civil servants, even if they held high positions, their salaries weren't that much. It was normal for them to give their only daughter some extra pocket money, and her grandmother often gave her some money too. But even so, Su Lisha shouldn't have had this much money to spend like this. After all, her cousin didn't want to buy a rock and make tens of millions herself. Su Qing had a bad premonition that something would happen in her second uncle's household sooner or later.
"Su Qing, how much money did you bring? Lend me some." He came over on his own initiative just to borrow money, and yet he still spoke in a commanding tone.
"Can't your sister buy enough things with all these?" Su Qing looked at the things Su Lisha was holding, which were all bought for herself. She spent money so recklessly that only a rich father could satisfy her.
"I'll just take one more bottle of perfume, if you still have money, help me pay the bill." Su Lisha completely ignored Su Qing's question.
Su Qing knew that her cousin in front of her regarded herself as an enemy, and even good advice would not be listened to. Maybe one day she fell into the depths of hell and woke up, Su Qing didn't want to waste her breath at this moment, so she walked directly to the counter and swiped her card to pay the bill. Su Qing also didn't ask how much money it was, and the receipt was taken by Su Lisha. As for this money, Su Qing never expected that the other party would return it to herself.
