Of course, there were also some people who said sourly that no matter how capable Jiujiu was, she should focus on her father's side before she had any ideas on how to make money. She was making money, but it had nothing to do with the Wang family.
Aunt Wang directly retorted back at these people.
What did they mean by it had nothing to do with the Wang family? They were their in-laws.
Because most of the things in the restaurant were handled by Lian Shi and Li Shuan, Jiujiu just stayed at home like a bride waiting to be married. Every day, apart from embroidering the wedding dress, she also prepared delicious food and fed Wang Yue, who came to find her on time.
Wang Yue was a man of few words in front of his family. Although he was also a man of few words in front of Jiujiu, and even habitually put on a stern face, it could be seen from the way he looked at Jiujiu from time to time that he actually liked Jiujiu very much.
Jiujiu felt that Wang Yue was like a large dog. If she really had to make an analogy, he would be a big wolf dog that was relatively cold and aloof.
He seemed cold and unapproachable, but when you got close to him, you would find that he was gentle and considerate, and his heart was burning.
When you were not familiar with him, you might find him unapproachable, but when you were really familiar with him, you would be melted by his enthusiasm.
At least, Jiujiu liked Wang Yue's type very much. When she was busy, he would either quietly accompany her by her side or help her out. When she needed help, she only needed to tell him, and he would definitely be able to quickly give her a better plan.
Jiujiu felt that a man like Wang Yue simply had a great sense of security.
Today, Jiujiu was going out to buy jewelry.
In fact, there were some jewelry in the betrothal gifts, but Aunt Wang insisted that half a year had passed, and the styles from half a year ago were already outdated. Moreover, Wang Yue had just received his salary, so she asked Wang Yue to take Jiujiu to buy some jewelry and have a meal outside.
Of course, these were all excuses. In fact, the main reason was that Aunt Wang felt that Wang Yue's personality was too boring. Moreover, because she saw that Jiujiu and Wang Yue's way of interacting was basically just talking, and Wang Yue would occasionally respond with a few 'en's. She was afraid that Jiujiu would dislike Wang Yue after a long time, so she wanted Wang Yue to show off his wealth so that Jiujiu would not dislike him too much.
The two of them were going to buy jewelry, naturally, they went to the most famous Biyu Pavilion here.
Biyu Biyu Pavilion's items were famous for their price, but they were also famous for their good items.
Although they could buy two or three hairpins from other stores, they were still in short supply due to their good design and workmanship.
Biyu Pavilion was divided into two floors. The first floor was for cheaper jewelry. The corresponding styles might be older, but the price was relatively cheaper, so there were more people buying them.
The second floor was for Biyu Pavilion's latest designs. Not only were the styles beautiful, but many of them were one-of-a-kind, so the price was relatively more expensive.
Jiujiu originally planned to buy a few things on the first floor, but as soon as she arrived at Biyu Pavilion, she was pulled by Wang Yue to the second floor and directly brought to the more expensive side.
Jiujiu looked at Wang Yue disapprovingly, but before she could say anything, she saw the Biyu Pavilion's worker walk over with a small box. She stood in front of Jiujiu and opened the small box, revealing the exquisite jewelry inside.
The things inside happened to be a set. Not only were there hairpins, earrings, and bracelets, they were all exceptionally exquisite. The most eye-catching thing was not the appearance of the jewelry, but the fact that they were all made of gold.
How should she put it? Perhaps on TV, the male or female lead would casually throw out a large piece of silver as a reward, acting as if they were rich. However, when it came to ancient times, one would realize that this was impossible.
Not to mention that the daily currency in circulation was copper coins and silver pieces, just the fact that Jiujiu and Li Shuan worked hard for a year and only managed to save a dozen taels of silver, and that was under the condition that their business was doing well. It could be seen that silver was really rare.
Silver was already like this, let alone gold, which was rarer than silver. Wang Yue could directly take out so much gold and even get the Biyu Pavilion's worker to help her get a set of jewelry. Even if the price of this set of jewelry was excluded, just the thought of it was enough to move one.
As Jiujiu stared at the jewelry box in a daze for too long, Wang Yue, who was originally silent, could not help but speak first. She turned to look at Jiujiu and asked doubtfully, "You don't like it?"
No matter the style or pattern, it was obviously very beautiful.
Jiujiu pursed her lips and shook her head, "No, I like it very much."
Not only did she like it, but she also liked it very much.
She always knew that her man would give her his true heart at all times, but every time she felt it, she would still be moved.
Jiujiu picked up a bracelet and put it on her wrist. She shook it in front of Wang Yue's eyes and looked at Wang Yue, asking, "Is it beautiful?"
Jiujiu's wrist was slender, as if it could be broken with one hand. Her snow-white wrist and the golden bracelet contrasted each other. For a moment, Wang Yue could not tell whether this bracelet was beautiful or Jiujiu's wrist was more beautiful.
Wang Yue looked at Jiujiu's wrist, and her cold face could not help but soften. The corners of her mouth, which were usually tightly pursed, could not help but stretch. She looked at Jiujiu and showed a very shallow smile. Her voice was low but with a touch of warmth, she said, "It's beautiful."
It was very beautiful.
Hearing Wang Yue say that she looked good wearing the bracelet, the corner of Jiujiu's mouth curled up. After revealing a smile, she took off the bracelet and placed it in the box before saying, "Thank you, Big Brother Wang."
Wang Yue did not say anything to Jiujiu's thanks. She just asked the waiter to put away the box. Then, she held it in her hand and led Jiujiu downstairs.
Since the jewelry and other things were done, it was naturally time to eat.
Wang Yue originally wanted to take Jiujiu to a restaurant to eat, but Jiujiu was not willing. Not to mention that her family owned a restaurant, her cooking skills were much better than the chefs in the restaurant. Not to mention that Wang Yue gave her such a precious gift today.
She should return the favor and give Wang Yue a gift in return.
Wang Yue did not lack money, and it was not good to make clothes, so she could only think of cooking for Wang Yue.
Therefore, after the two left the Green Jade Pavilion, they directly returned to Jiujiu's home.
During this period of time, Jiujiu did not go to the restaurant. Every day, Li Shuan would bring home a portion of the vegetables from the restaurant.
Jiujiu washed and cut the vegetables, while Wang Yue cut the meat and chopped the ribs. When it was time to cook, Wang Yue sat in front of the stove and helped to heat the pot.
When everything was ready, the two sat at the table in the living room and started to eat.
Jiujiu made four dishes and a soup today.
Wang Yue liked to eat meat, so there were three meat dishes. One was salt and pepper ribs, one was braised chicken, and one was stir-fried meat and stir-fried vegetables.
As for the soup, Jiujiu made a light vegetable tofu soup.
Jiujiu's body had a small appetite, so she ate a few mouthfuls and stopped eating. On the other hand, Wang Yue directly swallowed the rest of Jiujiu's food. After eating, Jiujiu subconsciously glanced at Wang Yue's stomach, but she saw that Wang Yue's stomach was still flat, as if she had not eaten at all.
