Eldest daughter

Chapter 236 Sisters Humiliated
On the fifth day after the store opened, Wang Yuaner finally welcomed the shopkeeper recommended by Song San, a middle-aged man in his forties, Bai Yuqian.

According to Bai Yupin's own statement, he used to be the shopkeeper of Song San's rival merchant, but later that merchant was defeated by Song San, and he lost his job, just as Song San asked him to come over, so he came.

Bai Yupin said it simply, but Wang Yuan'er felt that this person was not simple, but there were some things that others deliberately kept hidden, and it was difficult for her to dig deeper.

Since it was the person introduced by Song San, she would naturally believe it, but she had nothing to ask for in a small shop.

It's already July, and the Ghost Festival is coming soon. The Wang Yuaner sisters have been in Beijing for more than half a month, and things in the shop are gradually getting on the right track. Now that shopkeeper Bai has also arrived, it's time to make a handover and return to Changle town gone.

On the sixth day of July, Wang Yuan'er discussed the monthly payment with shopkeeper Bai, handed over the business of the shop to him, reconciled the accounts, and started to prepare for returning to Changle Town.

Wang Qing'er was also homesick, and when she heard that she was going back to Changle Town, she dragged Wang Yuan'er to visit the shops in Beijing and buy some things back home.

Wang Yuan'er naturally knew what was on her mind. Seeing that the profits of the shops were not bad, she accompanied her around the shops to buy some rouge, gouache, and two silver bracelets.

"Ah, big sister, look at the clothes in that tailor shop are so beautiful, let's go and have a look." Wang Qing'er pointed to a tailor shop and said to Wang Yuaner.

Wang Yuan'er looked over, Qunfangzhai, the hanging clothes were so dazzling from a distance, there were people inside.

"Then take a look." Seeing her full of interest, Wang Yuan'er nodded.

Wang Qing'er immediately pulled her into the Qunfangzhai, where two or three people were picking out clothes, seeing them coming in, they didn't respond, and no one stepped forward to greet them.

Wang Qing'er didn't care, she chose among the ready-made dresses and praised them.

"Sister, look, which one is beautiful." She quickly picked up two sets of dresses, one was a pretty goose yellow and the other was a gorgeous peach red. The cutting and embroidery were very beautiful.

"They all look good." Wang Yuan'er looked at her and smiled brightly.

Wang Qing'er was about to speak, when suddenly a sharp voice came in.

"When will Qunfangzhai allow even a bumpkin to come in and buy clothes, without worrying about being rustic."

Wang Yuaner frowned, and looked over.

Someone came in from the outside, wearing a fiery red dress, wearing embroidered shoes inlaid with southern beads, holding a shawl with his arms bent, and wearing a hairpin on his head. He was very flamboyantly dressed.

When the man approached, he was only thirteen or fourteen years old, with a pretty face and a high chin. At this time, he looked at Wang Qing'er with contempt in his eyes, and he was that spoiled lady.

No matter how stupid Wang Qing'er was, she knew that what this person said just now was talking about her, and she couldn't help blushing with anger: "Who are you talking about?"

"What about you, who else can I say? Tsk tsk, look at this rustic look, who came out of nowhere, dare to come to Qunfangzhai, do you know how much these two dresses in your hand cost?" The girl snorted coldly, snatched the pink dress from Wang Qinger's hand, and said, "Five taels of silver, the cheapest dress in Qunfangzhai costs five taels of silver, bumpkin, you have this silver ?"

"You..." Wang Qing'er was robbed of the skirt and was so humiliated, she couldn't help glaring at the girl fiercely, and was about to step forward.

Wang Yuan'er took a slight step and looked at Wang Qing'er.

Wang Qing'er was unwilling, but because of her elder sister, she had no choice but to hold back and stare at the young girl.

"Why, talk about you, you are still not convinced, what are you doing staring, look at your dead fish eyes, just look at it, it's annoying, why don't you go back to your corner of the mountain?" The girl said in disgust. He took a step back, waved the air with his handkerchief, and said, "Oh, this earthy smell is really strong, Wan Niangzi, Wan Niangzi."

"Here it is, ah, it's Miss Ma." Someone came out from the back hall quickly, and when they saw the girl, they came up to meet her.

"Miss Wan, let me tell you how you set up Qunfangzhai. Why do you let everyone in? Don't you think it's too dirty?" Miss Ma said with a delicate and savage face.

The woman known as Wan Niangzi took a quick look at Wang Yuaner and the sisters, and said with a smile: "Our Qunfangzhai is well-known, and we really can't stop this person who comes here because of the name. Miss Ma came just in time. Our embroidery lady I just cut out a new set of dresses, which match your temperament, follow me to the back hall to have a look?"

Wang Yuan'er glanced at Mrs. Wan, and neither side should offend. I'm afraid this person is the shopkeeper or something?
Hearing Mrs. Wan's words, Miss Ma's eyes lit up, and she said: "Look, of course I want to see it. I also invited the elder sister of the He family to make clothes together for the banquet hosted by the eldest princess. But your shop What's the matter, such a country bumpkin, still not kicked out? I'm not afraid of lowering the style of Qunfang Zhai."

"That's right, Miss Wan, the people who come to this group of Fangzhai are either rich or noble. These two are poor and don't know if they have any money on them. Don't ruin your clothes. You don't have any money." Pay for it." A girl in a pink dress and bun tied up next to Miss Ma also followed up.

Wang Qing'er couldn't bear it anymore, and glared at the girl angrily: "What kind of master has what kind of girl, you look down on people like a dog."

As soon as these words came out, not only the girl's complexion changed, but Wang Yuan'er's complexion also changed drastically, and she scolded: "Qing'er."

"Little Hoof, who are you calling a dog?" Miss Ma stared angrily, as if she wanted to eat Wang Qing'er.

Wang Yuan'er was very anxious, and said to Wang Qing'er, "Aren't you apologizing?"

"Big sister!" Wang Qing'er was very wronged, tears rolled in her eyes, and said: "It's obvious that they insulted people first."

Wang Yuan'er glared at her, took the clothes from her hand and handed them to Mrs. Wan, saying, "I'm sorry, we won't buy it."

"Sister." Wang Qing'er's tears were about to fall.

Wang Yuan'er ignored her, only looked at Miss Ma, bent her knees, and said: "My little sister is young and ignorant, I hope Miss will forgive me, she didn't mean it."

Before Miss Ma could make a sound, the girl said first, "Just apologize like this? This little bitch's mouth is so dirty, she deserves to be slapped on her mouth."

When Miss Wan and Wang Yuan'er heard this, their faces changed. Wang Yuan'er glanced at the girl coldly, and then said to Miss Ma: "I apologize to Miss Ma on behalf of my younger sister, but I don't know that Miss Ma has really done something to control her. The master didn't say anything, and the slaves can give orders on behalf of the master, do you want to be the master?"

This is to satirize Miss Ma, and put another eyedrop on the slave girl. Lady Wan watched from the side, and took a look at Wang Yuaner.

Sure enough, Miss Ma's face darkened, and she slapped the girl without even thinking about it: "I haven't spoken yet, who told you to speak, are you Miss or am I Miss?"

"Miss, Dongxue doesn't dare." The servant covered her face and knelt down.

"I'm sorry you don't dare to get up yet." Miss Ma snorted coldly: "It's really embarrassing."

The servant named Dongxue got up and stood behind Miss Ma, staring at Wang Yuaner and sisters with resentment.

"My girl is also right, so let's forget it? Your sister's mouth is not clean, and I don't feel comfortable hearing it." Miss Ma looked at Wang Qing'er with a displeased face. A bumpkin is even more beautiful than her. Look It's not pleasing to the eye.

Wang Yuan'er knew that this person was difficult to deal with, but she didn't know that she was so difficult to deal with, so she suppressed her breath and said, "Miss Ma has a lot of people, so she won't argue with a little girl. Besides, Qunfangzhai didn't write about opening the door to do business. The poor and dogs cannot enter, but dogs can enter, and we poor people can naturally enter, as for whether there is money to buy it, it is hard to say, besides, how do you know that I have no money?"

puff!

In the back hall, there was a sudden laugh, which soon disappeared.

Wang Yuan'er turned her head slightly, but she didn't care, she just wanted to get out of this place of right and wrong quickly.

What she said just now didn't sound right, but Miss Ma couldn't hear it, but the one named Dong Xue did. He secretly called them dogs, but he didn't dare to tell his own lady, I could only stare there.

"Mistress Wan, how much are these clothes?" Wang Yuan'er asked Miss Ma again before Miss Ma could react.

The Wan lady took a look and said with a smile, "Five taels of silver."

Wang Yuan'er nodded, took out his purse, counted five taels of silver to her, took the dress from her hand and stuffed it into Wang Qing'er's hand.

Miss Ma was dumbfounded, she didn't expect that these two bumpkins really had five taels of silver.

"Miss Ma, look, I've bought all these clothes. In order to prevent you from getting the smell of dirt, let's go now. Look, don't block the way?" Wang Yuan'er looked at Miss Ma.

Miss Ma was about to speak, when another call came from outside the door: "Sister Ma, you came so early, huh...Miss Wang?"

Wang Yuan'er was also taken aback when she looked at the person coming, she never expected to see her here.

"Miss He."

This person was none other than He Xiuxian who was renting in Zhao's small courtyard that day. Unexpectedly, she still knew Miss Ma. Does this count as fate?

"Sister He, do you still know this bumpkin?" Miss Ma was very surprised.

He Xiuxian froze for a moment, then smiled awkwardly: "I used to live in Changle town for half a year, and met a few times, why is Miss Wang here?"

"I opened a shop in Bali Hutong, Xicheng. It's called Baolai Foreign Firm. I've been in Beijing for the past few days, and I'm going back to Changle Town soon. I just do some shopping. I never wanted to have a misunderstanding with Ms. Ma." Wang Yuan'er smiled lightly.

"What, then Baolai Foreign Firm belongs to your family?" Miss Ma frowned.

Recently, in the circle of Shuyuan in central Beijing, it is popular to buy something outside the fan. It is said that she bought it at a Baolai foreign company in Bali Hutong. She is planning to go and see, but this country girl opened it?No wonder there are five taels of silver to buy clothes.

He Xiuxian also heard about this foreign firm, she faintly guessed an idea, and said: "So that's it, I really want to go and have a look when I have time."

"You are welcome at any time." Wang Yuan'er and her looked at each other, thinking of Cui Yuan's enemy in his heart, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty and uncomfortable, and was afraid that Miss Ma would continue to make trouble, so he wanted to leave.
