Chapter 409

"My lord, what did you help me with?" the shopkeeper asked suspiciously.

"If it wasn't for me, your hairpin that sells for [-] gold coins would have sold for [-] gold coins?" Yun Xiyue rested her right hand on the counter and tapped the counter with her fingers.

But the shopkeeper was very embarrassed: "But, you are the one who wants to grab the hairpin from Miss Ying."

"So, you're not going to say anything?"

The shopkeeper didn't speak, and fell into deep thought.

Indeed, as this young man said, if it wasn't for him, the hairpin wouldn't have been sold at such an outrageously high price.

After thinking for a while, the shopkeeper said: "Why don't you give the two girls some jewelry?"

As he spoke, he looked at Feng Feiye and Hua Xi.

"The hairpin that Ms. Ying bought just now can only be regarded as ordinary goods. There are better ones in the small shop. How about showing the two girls?"

"Then take it out and have a look."

The shopkeeper nodded, and personally took out the best jewelry in the store and placed them on the counter.

"You two have a look." Yun Xiyue waved at Feng Feiye and Hua Xi, "It's indeed better than what Ying Linglong bought."

"That's natural."

The shopkeeper enthusiastically introduced the workmanship and special features of these jewelry to them.

"Shopkeeper, is the national teacher very good in the imperial city?"

Yun Xiyue lazily watched Feng Feiye and Hua Xi pick out jewelry, and casually asked the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper looked around and saw that there was no one else in the shop, so he said to her: "The national teacher is covering the sky with one hand now!"

"Oh? So powerful? What about the emperor?" Yun Xiyue asked curiously.

The shopkeeper whispered: "A month ago, the former emperor died suddenly, and the crown prince succeeded. But after the crown prince ascended the throne, the actual power is actually the national teacher. This is not a rare thing in the imperial city, but everyone only dares to discuss it privately." Talk about it, but don’t dare to say it in the open.”

"I see." Yun Xiyue nodded knowingly, "No wonder Ying Linglong is so domineering."

"Oh, it's also unlucky for the two girls. They met Ms. Ying, but fortunately, you have your support." The shopkeeper sighed, "This Ms. Ying has always been unruly, self-willed, arrogant and domineering in the past, but now that the national teacher is in power, She can't be bothered."

As he said that, the shopkeeper seemed to have thought of something, and asked, "Is the young master coming to the imperial city for a long time or staying temporarily? If you are staying temporarily, I would advise you to leave early. You offended that Miss Ying today, it is best to leave early. "

"Thank you shopkeeper for reminding me, I have my own plan." Yun Xiyue nodded with a smile, and then asked Feng Feiye and Huaxi, "Have you made your choice?"

"I've chosen." The two replied in unison.

In the end, Feng Feiye chose a pair of earrings, and Hua Xi chose a pair of bracelets.

But even so, the price of these two pairs of jewelry is far less than the money made by the shopkeeper.

……

After Ying Linglong left the jewelry store, she went straight back to the National Teacher's Mansion.

Back in her yard, she yelled angrily: "Bastard! I made Miss Ben spend so much money just to buy such a broken hairpin! Miss Ben is so mad!"

The maid hurriedly comforted her and said: "Miss, calm down, you are just a few country bumpkins, why should you care about them like them?"

Ying Linglong still looked angry, and turned to look at the maid: "Where's the hairpin? Bring it!"

"Miss, didn't you give the hairpin to the slave?" The maid looked at her suspiciously.

Ying Linglong raised her hand and slapped the maid on the face: "The hairpin I bought for [-] gold coins will be rewarded to you, a lowly person? Hurry up and get it!"

The maid endured her grievances, so she obediently handed over the hairpin.
