Transmigrating To Ancient Times With A Kitchen-Chapter 51 - 51 Jewelry
51 Jewelry
“Oh, about that….” Jian Qingqing did not mind at all. “Didn’t you thank me last time? You even gave me a jade pendant. Saving you was a piece of cake for me. Don’t worry about it.”
“Saving me was a piece of cake for you, but it was my life-saving grace. Miss Jian, I left in a hurry last time and didn’t have time to properly thank you. That was impolite of me. I originally wanted to pay you a visit after I was done with my work, but now that I’ve met you, please give me a chance to repay you.”
Ming Zhiyan rarely spoke so much in one go, he uncomfortably cleared his throat.
“It’s alright. I’m still in a hurry to go home, so I won’t be going to eat. By the way, have you fully recovered from your injuries?”
Ming Zhiyan nodded and said that he had already fully recovered. He then said, “In that case, I’ll get someone to send you back.”
Jian Qingqing waved her hands repeatedly. “No, no. I’ve already made an appointment with someone, so I won’t trouble you.”
“Alright then. If Miss Jian needs any help in the future, you can look for me.”
“Yes, yes, yes. Goodbye, Lord Ming!”

After eating, Jian Qingqing took out the jewelry. “Mother, look what I bought for you.”
Mother Jian took it and was shocked, “Aiyo, why did you buy me such an expensive thing? How much does it cost?”
“It’s nothing, it’s not expensive. Besides, I earned money. What’s wrong with buying something for you?”
Mother Jian carefully inserted the hairpin into her hair and asked shyly, “How is it? Is it nice?”
Jian Qingqing cheered her on, “It’s nice, it’s nice! The first time I saw it, I felt that it was very suitable for you.”
“Wow! Mother, it is really nice! I have never seen a woman who is more beautiful than you!” Xiao Hu’s expression was exaggerated and amusing.
Mother Jian was not ugly. These days, she had eaten well and had restored the meat on her face. Her gentle oval face, thin willow-leaf eyebrows, and the gold-plated hairpin made her look very expensive.
Mother Jian lowered her head shyly. “You guys always tease me!”
Jian Dalang chuckled foolishly. “It’s really pretty, but Big Sister, why are you only buying gifts for your mother and not for me?”
At the end, he was already feeling jealous. 𝐟𝓇ℯ𝐞𝚠𝚎𝒃𝑛𝒐ѵe𝚕.co𝚖
Jian Qingqing laughed and went over. She originally wanted to buy other things after buying the jewelry, but after that incident, she did not want to scare her family.
Mother Jian also said, “Yes, Big Sister, why don’t you buy some for yourself? Children should dress up more beautifully. With your hair tied up twice a day, how could you not wear anything? Tomorrow, go buy some nice hair ropes and jewelry. Mother will teach you how to tie them!”
Jian Qingqing said helplessly, “Mother, I set up a stall every day, how would I have time to do these things? Besides, it’s convenient to tie up my hair. Why would you dress up so nicely when you go out to work?”
She was determined not to admit that it was because she did not know how to do those complicated hairstyles that she casually tied up her hair. Seeing that Mother Jian still wanted to speak, she quickly interrupted, “Oh right, I heard that there’s a private school in the county that’s about to start. Why don’t we send Xiao Hu and Xiao Ye to study?”
When it came to studying, the members of the Jian Family became serious.
Old Man Jian could not believe it. “Our family is really going to have scholars?”
In this day and age, those who could afford to study were either rich or noble. Their village had never had a scholar before. The Village Chief’s family had originally planned to use the entire family’s money to send Zhangsun to school, but after the drought, they had no money to go.
“Our family can really go to school? Doesn’t that mean that Xiao Hu and Xiao Ye won’t have to farm in the future? Once they go to school, they can become accountants in the county. Every month, they will earn money!”
