Chapter 249
"Well, my lord, may I ask that you are from Zhennanhoufu..."

The shopkeeper's lady was lucky enough to ask a question boldly.

The two attendants standing behind Tie Wushuang were annoyed, and scolded, "Presumptuous, our Marquis is here in person, can we still cheat your goods?"

"Oh, my servant's eyesight! Forgive me, Lord Hou!" The shopkeeper's lady lost all color on her face, she quickly knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly.

If the housekeeper of the Hou's mansion or any collateral relatives came, she would put some money or say a few nice words. Today, this matter can be covered up, but who would have thought that Tangtang Town Nanhou would come to her shop to pick up clothes in person.

"Get up."

Tie Wushuang waved his hand, feeling a little disgusted at the sights secretly projected on him.

Remembering that the mother and younger sister must be waiting, he urged, "Pack things up quickly."

The shopkeeper's face turned even paler, and she was too timid to get up.

"Why, the clothes haven't been sewn yet?"

Tie Wushuang's phoenix eyes were higher, and her impatience was even heavier.

The lady shopkeeper knew she couldn't hide it, so she pointed at the falling dress and said, "Forgive me, Lord Hou, the rest of the clothes are ready, only this one will have to be redone."

Tie Wushuang narrowed his eyes slightly, his cold gaze swept over Jiulian and Guo Pinru, causing them both to lower their heads subconsciously.

"Do it again, and send it to the Hou's Mansion before tomorrow."

Contrary to the shopkeeper's wife's expectations, Zhennanhou, who was said to have killed countless people and whose clothes were blood-stained, did not make things difficult for her, but only asked to have them re-sewn.

This simply made her overjoyed, kowtowed her head repeatedly, and assured her repeatedly, "Master Hou, don't worry, this servant will deliver new clothes to the door on time."

But Tie Wushuang didn't listen, and motioned to the two attendants to carry the suitcase, and got up to go out.

That's all for Guo Pinru, although her father is the servant of the household department, but Zhennanhou is comparable to the emperor, and has a heavy army in his hand, which is not something she, the daughter of a small servant, can resist.If people don't hold her accountable for snatching the clothes, it would be condescension, and she dare not go up to her to make her feel uncomfortable.

But Princess Jiulian didn't think so, she was used to being arrogant in the capital, but now she felt that Tie Wushuang despised her and she lost face, so she was annoyed.

So, she directly blocked Tie Wushuang's way, and said, "Master Hou, my daughter Jiulian, my father is King Wucheng."

Tie Wushuang finally looked at her, but still just nodded, and replied, "Oh, I've seen the princess."

After all, step up and continue to walk out.

Jiulian was stunned for a moment, never expecting that Tie Wushuang would still be so indifferent even knowing her name and father's title.

So he couldn't bear it any longer, stretched out his hand and pulled Tie Wushuang's sleeve, and said angrily, "Why is Hou Ye so arrogant and ignorant of etiquette?"

The customers in the shop, together with the shopkeeper's lady and the staff, were all dumbfounded.

Although King Wucheng's title is higher than that of Zhennan Hou, power is not a matter of title.Jiu Lian's grandfather was the late emperor's cousin. With the meritorious service of conquering the world together and the blood of the same family, he won the title of King Wucheng, which has indeed been prominent for so many decades.But Jiu Lian's father is a good-for-nothing. The current Emperor Chengde thinks of the old King Wu Cheng's affection and let him inherit the title, but he has no real power at all, but he should raise a family. Idle clan.

But the Marquis of Zhennan was not. He had guarded the Southwest for several generations in succession, and had countless military exploits. He had hundreds of thousands of soldiers under him. He was simply the most powerful general and the most loyal arm of Emperor Chengde.Not to mention stomping his feet, Jingdu trembled three times, at least he could walk sideways.

Even a seven or eight-year-old child can tell the difference between the idle clan and the powerful Marquis, who should respect whom, but the princess of Jiulian County is so stupid.

Tie Wushuang, a ruthless character who has been on the battlefield for many years, would never take a little girl's offense seriously.However, he swept the dress that fell on the ground, but also sneered, "If it's about etiquette, should the princess explain why the long dress made by my sister is in the hands of the princess? Landed on the ground? The princess questioned the impoliteness of the Marquis, could it be that Cheng Wang’s mansion has been domineering enough to snatch other people’s things without knowing his fault? Could it be that Wu Cheng’s mansion thinks that the whole world belongs to itself?”

"you…"

Princess Jiulian's face turned red when she was blocked, and she wanted to refute, but she was afraid that it would be wrong. If it spread, it would mean that her palace had used the world for her own use, so where did she put the real masters in the palace?Isn't this a conspiracy...

"You spit out blood!"

The sarcasm at the corner of Tie Wushuang's mouth was even stronger, and Jiu Lian was easily thrown away as soon as he raised his arm, "If the princess is not convinced, just go to the palace and go to the imperial court, Ben Hou will wait!"

After all, he left the shop Shi Shiran, and the two attendants did not know whether it was on purpose or on purpose, they whispered while carrying the box, "We haven't been back to Kyoto for several years, why is Kyoto like this? You should be so domineering, snatching our young lady's dress, without even apologizing, and asking Master Hou to salute her, without even looking at who you are!"

"That's right, Lord Hou is fighting for Da Yuan on the battlefield, and she is still playing needlework at home. She really thinks she is a character!"

Jiu Lian was so angry that her face was livid, her mind was buzzing, she wished she could rush up and kick Tie Wushuang's master and servant half to death, or really go into the palace and cry...

But think about it, the old man who only knows how to eat, drink and play, and the brothers who are more incompetent than the next, if she hadn't often curry favor with the eldest princess, the whole family would have been obsessed with the prince, but they would have been forgotten by everyone.

She was angry on the one hand, and on the other hand she had some small thoughts.Didn't it mean that such a tough-tempered man would look at a fierce woman differently? Why is it different from what she thinks?

"Princess, we've been out for a while, if we don't go back, I'm afraid the princess will be waiting impatiently!"

Followed Jiulian to go out was the capable nanny next to the princess. She didn't stop the little master just now, so that she lost such a big face. Now she doesn't care whether she will be punished when she goes back, so she bites her head and lives Pulled the little master and quickly left the shop.

The remaining Guo Pinru took two steps back cautiously, and looked at the long skirt on the ground. It was not as good-looking as before, coughed lightly, and managed to find a step for herself, "Oh, I forgot that there are still jewelry in the Jinyu Pavilion. Take it, let’s choose the material later.”

As she spoke, she also took the maidservant and ran away swiftly.

There are a few guests in the room left, there is no excitement to watch, and they are also paying the bill, and leaving.

Only the shopkeeper's wife picked up the long skirt, she felt like crying, she also scolded Jiulian and Guo Pinru in her heart.There is nothing to fight for when you are free, but it is the skirt of the lady from the Zhennan Hou Mansion!

Now that it's good, Jinxiu Pavilion is the most unlucky one, but it offended Zhennanhou's mansion badly.Who doesn't know that Mrs. Tie is famous for her toughness, and Zhennan Hou is not a vegetarian.When I deliver the skirt tomorrow morning, I don't know how many kowtows I will have to make amends.

"Hurry up, find materials quickly, and then make a new skirt. No, no! Make two more, one in blue and one in light crimson. It must be rushed out tomorrow morning!"

The shopkeeper's lady didn't care about anything else, she threw the shop to the boy, and hurried to the backyard to make arrangements.

Besides, Tie Wushuang brought his things back to the Hou Mansion, and sure enough Mrs. Tie and Xiaomi were waiting for him.

There is no woman who does not like new clothes and jewelry, not to mention that tomorrow she still wants to surprise her long-lost sweetheart.

It was the first time for Xiaomi to look forward to getting the new clothes and jewelry back earlier. Almost as soon as Tie Wushuang entered the door, she greeted him, "Brother, where is my new dress, have you got it?"

Tie Wushuang was dazed by her bright smile, but instead smiled and said, "I took it back, but there is something wrong with one of them, I'm afraid it will be delivered tomorrow morning."

"Understood, my mother has made so many, it's not bad for that one."

Xiaomi didn't take it seriously, and turned to help Mrs. Tie, and the two of them opened the box to look through the dresses.

Nanny Dao, Feng Niang, and Aunt Han were all joking around, chatting non-stop.Tie Wushuang wanted to sit for a while longer, but he always felt that he was a bit of an eyesore, so he found an excuse to go to the study.The rest of the old and young girls had no more scruples, entered the inner room, and began to experiment endlessly.

Jinxiu Pavilion is indeed the number one embroidery pavilion in Kyoto, not to mention the many aunts and aunts in Laoxiongling, even the embroiderers in the Hou's mansion, their craftsmanship is not half as good as theirs.

Mrs. Iron's several dresses were generously cut, and the details were handled extremely delicately. Even a single embroidery pattern was never ignored.

Mrs. Tie tried a set and felt a little tired, so she waved her hand to signal Nanny Dao to put away her dress, and urged Xiaomi to try it too.

Every time Xiaomi changed a dress, Feng Niang and Aunt Han put her hair in a new bun and paired it with new jewelry. After more than an hour of busy work, it was only when the sky was getting dark that they finally finished trying it out.

Xiaomi hung directly on Mrs. Iron's shoulders, refusing to move.

"Mom, I'm exhausted, let's not buy so many new clothes next time."

Mrs. Tie was funny, touched her hair, and replied, "When the seasons change, it is also appropriate to make a few more. On weekdays, I only add one or two sets at a time. How about it? Is there any favorite set that I will wear into the palace tomorrow?" ?,"

Xiaomi glanced at the new clothes. To be honest, she prefers more elegant and lively styles and colors, but most of these clothes are gorgeous. Although she wears them, she always feels a bit awkward even though she looks extravagant.

So he said, "There is another set of willow-colored ones, and they will be delivered tomorrow morning. I will try it then and talk about it."

"It's okay, your clothes, you should always like them. When a woman goes out, clothes and jewelry are still secondary. The most important thing is etiquette and bearing. Don't underestimate yourself, so that others can't underestimate you."

Mrs. Tie never forgot to teach her daughter carefully, because she was afraid that Xiaomi would be timid and wronged when she entered the palace tomorrow.

Xiaomi rubbed her hands in the old lady's arms, and replied, "Okay, don't worry, mother. I don't lack nose or eyes, and I don't expect others to eat. As long as I have good manners, no one will try to bully me."

"Okay, that's how you should think about it. It doesn't matter if you're wrong, there's still your mother and your brother-in-law."

After the mother and daughter talked a few words, Xiaomi sent the dress and jewelry back to the Nuan Pavilion. After the kitchen brought the food, everyone took a rest early.
