Chapter 137 The Jin Family Tests Hidden Weapons
After returning to the inn, Song Sanniang and her father asked the shopkeeper at the counter and learned that Qin Haodong and his two companions had already arrived to stay. After asking for the room number, the father and daughter went to meet them first.
The two knocked on the door of one of the rooms. Qin Haodong opened the door. The three siblings were chatting in the room. Then they went downstairs to have dinner together.
Qin Haodong and the other two planned to return to the provincial capital the next day because they had already thanked Aunt Hu and the others, and then went to the pawnshop to collect the rent for the rental house, so they had nothing to do in the county town.
Song Sanniang originally wanted Qin Haodong to stay in the county town to oversee the progress of the shop renovation, but after hearing Qin Haodong's plan, she felt that it would be useless for him to stay here.
Because the shop decoration would not be completed in a short time, and the people hired were reliable and did not need anyone to keep an eye on them, so they were allowed to return to the city first according to Qin Haodong and the others' plan.
The next day, Qin Haodong and his friends went to the dock to take a boat, Song Laoer went to the store to do the decoration work, and Song Sanniang took the gifts to the He Mansion.
Two days before Song Sanniang returned to Xiantao Mansion, Jin Wei packed all the finished jewelry into different categories and delivered them to Jin Mansion personally.
When the gatekeeper came to report, Jin Zhaohua felt very strange. Didn't Jin Wei usually come to the mansion to look for her father and elder brother? Why did she suddenly look for her? However, she still asked someone to bring her to her courtyard.
Jin Wei did not come in by herself. She was followed by two maids from the Jin residence, holding a few boxes. The maids put the boxes on the table and then tactfully left.
"Miss." Jin Wei greeted Jin Zhaohua first.
Jin Zhaohua stepped forward and helped her up. "Sister Wei, what are you doing? Why are you trying to trick me like this? What are these things?" she asked curiously.
"These are all made by the sweet Miss Song for you." Then Jin Wei arranged the boxes one by one.
"These two are for the Second Young Master, these two are for you, these two are for the Second Young Miss, these two are for the Third Young Miss, and the last one is for the Young Master."
Jin Zhaohua curiously opened one of his boxes, and inside was a gold bracelet. Jin Zhaohua picked up the bracelet. Although it was an exquisite hollow carved bracelet,
But Jin Zhaohua had seen many precious jewels, many more luxurious and exquisite than this one, so she was a little surprised why Miss Song suddenly gave her a bracelet.
Jin Wei took the bracelet and pressed something. The bracelet suddenly popped open, revealing a sharp blade hidden in the interlayer.
If your hands are tied, just press the switch and the blade in the bracelet will pop out, and you can use the blade to cut the rope.
If you are facing a bad guy alone, you can take advantage of him by surprise and injure him with a knife, giving yourself a chance to escape.
Seeing this, Jin Zhaohua couldn't help but take the bracelet and started to play with it herself. After a while, she put it on with great satisfaction. Without Jin Wei saying anything, she went to look at her other box.
There is also a bracelet in this box, but this one is a silver open bracelet. The gold bracelet is as thick as a little finger.
This bracelet is very slender, almost like a hairpin. The interface on one side of the bracelet is a lifelike lotus, and the interface on the other side is a realistic lotus leaf.
Jin Zhaohua saw a pearl in the middle of the lotus. She pulled the pearl out and a wire was pulled out.
Jin Zhaohua could already imagine herself getting behind the bad guy and strangling his neck with a wire. She practiced martial arts, so she was given this kind of jewelry.
What about the gifts for her sister and brother? She was very curious, so she asked the maid to call them over and open their gifts.
Several people came to Jin Zhaohua's yard one after another. Knowing that Song Sanniang had sent them gifts, they were very curious, so they opened them one by one.
Jin Zhengan's was a bamboo flute, which looked ordinary, but when he grabbed one end of the flute and pulled it out, he found a sharp dagger.
There is also a ring. When you press the ring, a thin needle will pop out. If someone like Jin Zheng'an who has been practicing martial arts for many years uses it, this ring can pierce the temple of the nearby criminal and kill him with one blow.
The sisters Jin Zhaoyi and Jin Zhaotong, like Jin Zhaohua, have a hollow carved gold bracelet with a blade.
Another gift from Jin Zhaoyi was a beautifully crafted silver hairpin in the shape of a peony flower. However, the hairpin could be pulled out of the flower, revealing a sharp weapon.
Jin Zhaotong was the most delicate of the three sisters. Her other gift was a beautifully forged ring chain bracelet.
The bracelet, which was inlaid with a circle of rice-sized rubies, had a clasp holding a thin silver chain, and at the other end of the silver chain was a ring also inlaid with a ruby.
Jin Zhaotong liked it very much. She put on the ring chain bracelet. Her white, delicate and boneless jade hands were set off by the ring chain bracelet and looked even whiter. Jin Wei told everyone that she wanted to demonstrate the exquisiteness of this ring chain bracelet to everyone.
She asked someone to bring a screen, and everyone retreated behind Jin Zhaotong to make sure there was no one in front of her. Then she let Jin Zhaotong point her hand at the screen. She pressed the switch on the bracelet. With three clicks, the bracelet shot out three flying needles that pierced through the screen.
Everyone felt as if they were stabbed by a flying needle and shivered. Jin Wei went to pick up the flying needle and put it back into the bracelet.
Young Master Zhengren's was a ring and a fan. The ring was the same as Jin Zhengan's. When pressed, a thin needle would pop out. When the fan was switched on, several flying needles would fly out, just like the ring chain bracelet.
All these hidden weapons can be poisoned, making them more lethal.
Everyone was very satisfied with the gifts. They originally wanted to go to Tian Mi Mi to thank Song Sanniang, but they gave up when they knew she was not in the city. Jin Zhaoyi even happily wrote a letter to He Jun.
So when Song Sanniang came to the He Mansion to visit Miss He, Miss He actually felt a little jealous.
She snorted with a little girl's demeanor, "My cousins all got their gifts before me, and now that you have them, you put me behind."
Song Sanniang didn't know whether to laugh or cry when she heard this, so she had to go up to her and comfort her, "They are in the city, so I sent them to their home first. Look, if you are not important, I can just send someone to send them there. Why should I make this trip?
I asked others to send theirs, but I sent yours myself, so you can’t wrong me for my hard work.”
When Miss He heard her say this, her unhappiness disappeared. She opened the gift sent by Song Sanniang with great interest.
She had three items: a hollow carved gold bracelet, a tassel hairpin, and a ring chain bracelet. Hers was a little more luxurious than the other ladies of the Jin family, as each item was embellished with emeralds.
After Miss He tried the uses of these jewels herself, she was amazed and admired Song Sanniang's ingenuity. "Who would have thought that these jewels of mine actually have hidden mysteries? It's really amazing."
"By the way, the other one is for your uncle. Please give it to him for me." Song Sanniang pointed to the other two boxes on the table.
Miss He originally wanted to open it and take a look, but she felt it would be inappropriate to open it without her uncle present. However, it would not be convenient to ask her uncle to come if Song Sanniang was not around. If her grandmother knew about it, she would probably be furious again. So she had to suppress her curiosity.
