Yunling immediately said: "Take him away now."

She asked Yuliu to pay at the counter.

Xu Xiangxiang's maid Xia Ying went to the counter earlier, and the two of them were fighting over the money.

"Aunt Xiang, my grandmother told me before I go out that I have to pay for all the purchases today. If you pay for it for me, she will have to settle the account and deliver it to the house in person."

Xu Xiangxiang glared at Yunling, "You are going to be my daughter-in-law. Isn't it natural for me to buy things for you? Why do you still care about me?"

Yunling smiled and said nothing, then called Xia Ying, "Xia Ying, come back and take a look."

Xia Ying really thought it was her masters calling her, so she stopped fighting with Yu Liu and hurried back, "Madam, eldest lady, what's wrong?"

Seeing that she had been fooled, Xu Xiangxiang glanced at her angrily, "Did I never find you so stupid?"

"what?"

She was a little confused as to why she was disliked by her master. When she looked up and saw Yu Liu returning with a secretive look on his face after paying the money, she realized that she had been deceived.

Stomping her feet, "Miss, how can you help Yuliu?"

"Xia Ying, don't pay any more money. If you still want to pay, I won't ask for anything."

There are no secrets in Ruidu. The shopkeeper immediately understood from the words of several people. It turned out that this young lady was the future wife of the Marquis of Zhenxi, the granddaughter of the Tang Dynasty physician who cured Emperor Tai'an as soon as he returned to Ruidu!

It is really rare for a mother-in-law to take her future daughter-in-law out to buy wedding clothes.

However, I heard that Miss Tang's biological mother died young, so Mrs. Xu probably felt sorry for her daughter-in-law.

The shopkeeper deliberately stepped forward to flatter him, but four more people came in at the door.

A master, two maids, and a mother-in-law.

As soon as the woman came in, she said to the waiter: "Where is your shopkeeper? We want to buy Phoenix Brocade."

Phoenix brocade costs one thousand taels of silver per piece. Such a high price is usually received by the shopkeeper in person.

The shopkeeper hurriedly bowed to Yun Ling and the others, "Wait a moment, everyone. The items in the warehouse will be wrapped up and sent out soon. I'll excuse you now."

Yunling raised her eyes and met a pair of jealous eyes.

As soon as Lin Jiayue entered the door, her eyes were attracted to the girl sitting on the chair.

The skylight fell on the girl's bright face, making her whole body more beautiful and moving. Her dress was pink and white, like a peony fairy.

When he took a closer look, he was still an "old acquaintance", and Lin Jiayue even secretly thought it was bad luck.

But even so, she still couldn't control her jealousy and couldn't help but look at the girl, hoping to find some "flaw" on her face.

Seeing that she was discovered, Lin Jiayue hurriedly lowered her head.

Then I thought, this is Ruidu, and I am here to buy something, why should I be afraid of her looking at it?

So he raised his head arrogantly and rolled his eyes at Yunling.

Yunling raised her eyebrows.

Ruidu is such a big place with so many people. As soon as she goes out, she can bump into "old acquaintances" from Yuezhou City. They really are enemies on a narrow road.

The shopkeeper stepped forward and bowed hastily to Lin Jiayue, "Miss Lin, you are here."

Lin Jiayue came to see Phoenix Brocade a few days ago, but because of the high price, she did not make a decision on the spot.

Lin Jiayue nodded lightly, "Shopkeeper, please wrap up the Phoenix brocade I saw a few days ago. I bought it."

The shopkeeper said: "Miss Lin, the Phoenix brocade you are optimistic about was bought a few days ago. You also know that the Phoenix brocade in our store is the best-seller, but dyeing this brocade is quite time-consuming, so this month The inventory has been sold out, you have to wait a little longer."

Lin Jiayue frowned, "Then when will it be available?"

Because of Liu Zhengyan's death, her hope of marrying into the Duke of Wu was dashed, and the two families had mentioned this matter before. In order to avoid being criticized by others, she was quickly engaged by her father after she returned to Ruidu.

The wedding was approaching and many things had not been prepared yet, so she was a little anxious.

The shopkeeper hurriedly reassured her, "Don't worry, Miss Lin. The store will be open again on the fifth day of next month. Why don't you make the decision today and I'll deliver it to your house next month?"

Lin Jiayue calculated the time and felt that it was too late.

She is getting married at the end of next month. If she starts cutting and embroidering clothes on the fifth day of next month, she may not have time to do it. Unless she asks several embroiderers to do it at the same time, she will spend more on the wedding dress.

Her dowry money was not particularly large, so it was really inappropriate to waste it on these things.

"Can it be made earlier? I came here a few days ago. Didn't I ask you to keep it for me?"

The shopkeeper's smile faltered.

He only said he would keep it, but did not give a deposit. He also touched the cloth again and again that day and made some wrinkles. It took the embroiderer a long time to smooth them out. He was also afraid that she would not buy it.

Since there was no agreement, if other customers happened to come to buy it, it would naturally be for sale.

It's a pity that this cannot be said openly, as it will offend people if it is said.

The shopkeeper forced out another smile and said, "Don't be upset, Miss Lin. It's all my fault. I was too busy and forgot about it. Otherwise, Miss Lin paid the deposit today, and I'll go to rush the goods and call them." Deliver it early?"

"What do you mean? Are you afraid that our Lin family can't afford the money? We still need to pay a deposit first? Are we the kind of family that goes back on its word?" The maid in green next to Lin Jiayue shouted immediately.

The shopkeeper still smiled and didn't answer.

"Then give me a deposit." Lin Jiayue was still in a hurry to buy other things and was not ready to argue with the shopkeeper here, so she relaxed.

At this time, the man from the warehouse brought up the wrapped Phoenix Brocade.

"Shopkeeper, the last phoenix brocade is wrapped."

When Lin Jiayue and others heard this, they immediately became furious.

The old lady beside her immediately jumped to her feet and said: "You are so dishonest as the shopkeeper. Isn't there something else? How could you lie to our master and say it's gone?"

As she spoke, her rough old hands were about to touch the package.

Yu Liu was smart and walked over quickly when the man came out. Taking advantage of the old woman's hand, she picked up the package and returned to Yun Ling.

The old mama leaned forward, but her hand failed, and she almost fell to the ground. She immediately said dissatisfied: "Where did this wild girl come from, dare to rob something from our minister's house?"

Xu Xiangxiang snorted coldly and placed the tea cup heavily on the table.

Her beauty is outstanding, and anyone who sees her will never forget her.

The old grandma was still shouting, but when she saw that it was Mrs. Xu from the Zhenxihou Mansion, she had no choice but to point her gun at the shopkeeper.

"What do you mean you have goods but don't sell them? Is it possible that you still choose customers when doing business? If so, I have to go to the street and tell you that Caixian Pavilion is not sincere in doing business!"

Lin Jiayue said with a gloomy face, "Shopkeeper, you know I'm anxious."

The shopkeeper explained patiently: "Miss Lin, when you came here a few days ago, there were indeed two horses, but the one you were looking at was bought the day before yesterday. The last one left just now was bought before you entered the store. I sold it to Miss Tang, so it’s really out of stock, I really didn’t lie to you.”

Lin Jiayue wanted to say something else, but she heard Xu Xiangxiang sneer: "I want to buy it without giving any money, and I want the store to be reserved for you. Are you a bandit? Are you so shameless?"
