Chapter 208: Seeing the Maid from the Previous Life Again
"Okay, do you like the mahogany box or this one? I'll put it away for you!"
The young man was so happy that he didn't even ask the price. This is what a real rich man looks like.
At this moment, Mrs. Yang just wanted to laugh. This set of ruby headdresses cost about a thousand taels. Let's see how she can make a fool of herself this time.
She also despised Jiang Shuyue in her heart. It was just that she was lucky to marry a young master. Otherwise, there would be no chance for this upstart to turn into a phoenix.
"The one made of mahogany."
"Okay." The waiter moved quickly and handed it to Jiang Shuyue after a moment. "You really have a good eye. The rubies on this headpiece are big and bright. It's only 1,100 taels. It's not expensive at all."
Jiang Shuyue nodded. It was indeed quite good. A complete set of head accessories included a top hairpin, sideburn hairpins, long hairpins, earrings, and rings, a total of ten pieces, big and small.
The key is that if you take this set out and pair it with some fancy clothes, it will definitely look good.
Mrs. Yang was waiting for this moment. "Madam, do you have money?"
She could hardly suppress the smile at the corners of her mouth.
Jiang Shuyue took a deep breath, "Oh, I was in such a hurry to go out that I forgot to bring any money. What should I do?"
She looked at the boy.
The young man was not one to look down on others. A truly poor person would not dare to do this. He also recognized that this was the eldest lady of the Tao family.
As a servant, she was lucky enough to know Mrs. Tao, but she didn't know how many sons the Tao family had.
"Madam, this is nothing. Just take the things first and ask someone to send the money back. Madam and daughter of the Tao family always come to our shop."
Jiang Shuyue looked at Mrs. Yang whose expression changed, and said in a principled manner: "That won't do. How about this, you take the things to the Tao family, this way you won't lose, and neither will I."
As long as it can be sold, it doesn’t matter.
Many ladies and young ladies are like this. After all, the things in the Treasure Pavilion are expensive, and not everyone would really carry several thousand taels of silver with them.
He even dared to let others take it away first. Why wouldn't he be happy to exchange money for goods?
"Madam, please take a look around. I will take it there right away."
Jiang Shuyue nodded, "That's true, I'll take a look..."
Mrs. Yang lost her smile. How could she have known that Jiang Shuyue would dare to do this? It was unexpected that a country woman was so bold.
"Madam, this thing is too valuable, and you haven't asked Madam..."
"Mom loves me very much." Jiang Shuyue smiled a little naively, "She will definitely buy me anything I like."
"Yes, Madam Tao has the best heart. The eldest young lady's wife is obviously liked by the elders."
Jiang Shuyue smiled and nodded. She didn't need to say anything. Just watching the game between the boy and Mrs. Yang was enough.
Mrs. Yang was extremely flustered. "Madam, this is not a small amount of money. You should think twice."
"What kind of family is the Tao family? How could they be stingy with a mere 1,000 taels of silver? A woman of the eldest young master's status wouldn't worry even if she had 10,000 taels of silver. Madam, you are being too cautious, aren't you?"
"Shut up." Mrs. Yang glared at the boy.
The boy refused and wanted to go to the manager to receive the reward.
How can I let this old hag ruin things?
"That's right, my mother loves me so much that she personally brought me to the capital."
"Yes, ma'am, take a look. It is a blessing for our shop that such a beautiful person like you can wear our jewelry."
Mrs. Yang was about to cry. During the quarrel, the manager came. The waiter spoke first, but the manager didn't understand.
The eldest young lady's wife is not someone a servant can compare to.
"Madam, please take a look and see if there is anything else you like. I will have it delivered to your house."
Jiang Shuyue sighed, "Forget it. Nanny Yang probably thinks that mother doesn't love me and is reluctant to spend so much money on me. She is the most caring person around mother. If she says that, I guess mother really doesn't love me."
She shook her head. "It turns out I misunderstood. I won't buy it. Just this one."
The steward didn't say anything, "If there are any new styles in the future, I will send someone to inform the eldest young lady."
Before leaving, Mrs. Yang glared at the manager, saying, "What a bullshit announcement."
After leaving the house, Mrs. Yang didn't want to pay any attention to Jiang Shuyue.
I feel that she is really not a country bumpkin who came to the city. Everything she has is good. Even if the thing is really good, how can she have the nerve to let the lady pay for it?
"Madam, I'm not saying anything to you. No one cared about you in the countryside, but now you're in the mansion. You still have to follow the rules. Madam is the mistress of this mansion. Before you do anything, you should say hello to her."
Jiang Shuyue looked at her with a surprised look on her face, "Madame Yang is right, why didn't you say so earlier?"
Mother Yang: "..."
Didn't she say that?
Jiang Shuyue was the first to complain, "Look at you, mother asked you to follow me to teach me, please don't be shy, just tell me and I will know. You also know that I am from the countryside and don't understand these things."
Mother Yang: "I...I just advised you..."
"Have you persuaded me?" Jiang Shuyue still looked as if she hadn't reacted. "How could I not know? Next time if you have something to say, just tell me directly."
Mrs. Yang felt so miserable that she could not even cry. Was this her fault?
"Madam, if you ask me, I'd rather not have that thing. It's not too late now."
"Wouldn't that let people know that our Tao family is fickle and can't even afford something this cheap? What's going on?"
So she was certain that Mrs. Tao would have to pay no matter what.
The thing that people who do business fear most is letting their business friends know that they have no money.
If you have no money, you may go bankrupt at any time. Who would do business with someone who is about to go bankrupt? Wouldn't that mean you are just waiting to lose money?
Mrs. Yang wanted to say something, but Jiang Shuyue's attention was attracted by a girl kneeling on the ground not far away with straw stuck in her hair.
The girl also looked over, and when their eyes met, she knelt down and crawled over.
"Madam, please buy me. I will be your slave and servant, and I will work like a cow or a horse to repay you."
Jiang Shuyue looked at the familiar face. Although it was not this time in her previous life, she also passed by this street and bought the girl who sold herself to bury her father.
Then he named her Zuizhu.
She said she had a younger brother, whose parents had died, and she wanted to sell herself to raise her brother and pay for his education.
He then thought of Liuyun and couldn't bear it, so he bought the person back.
But the result was that she personally brought poison to herself and took all the resentment of her failure in getting into bed on herself.
In her previous life, she also said that she would work like a slave to repay herself.
Cows and horses are beasts, so she did what beasts do.
Jiang Shuyue looked down at the pitiful girl in front of her. Suddenly, her hands that were grabbing the hem of her skirt were pulled away by a pair of big hands.
Mrs. Yang wanted to kick her again.
