But have you ever thought about it, the young lady, that shop dares to sell fake jewelry to young girls? It can be seen that the backstage is very tough.
Seeing that the only thing quiet in the yard was the sound of the wind, Su Tang looked here and there and said, "Why are you all reacting like this? You must be honest in business, and you will pay ten for every fake one. I don't want more."
Not much to ask for...
These are ten.
Does the eldest young lady have any idea about how many?
Xie Wei asked in a dry voice, "Sister-in-law, do you know the name of that shop?"
Su Tang thought for a while and said, "It seems to be called Jin Pavilion..."
"Jinyue Pavilion?" Xie Wei blurted out.
"That seems to be the name."
The corners of Xie Wei's mouth and eyes twitched wildly.
The other maids and women in the courtyard were also convinced.
The eldest mistress is really not afraid of tigers. Does she know who owns Jinyue Pavilion?
That was the shop of Princess Zhao's natal family in Nankang.
But it's normal for the eldest mistress not to know. After all, she is from Cheongju and has never even gone shopping a few times.
But the eldest girl refused to give even one jade bracelet to the third girl. The eldest mistress asked for ten jade bracelets from Jinyue Pavilion and gave them all to the third girl.
If Princess Nankang and the eldest girl knew about this, they would be so angry that they would vomit blood?
Su Tang looked at Xie Wei and said, "Chen Qing took these jade bracelets casually. I don't know if there are any fake ones inside. I can't tell. Take a closer look. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
Xie Wei was so shocked by Su Tang's handwriting and approach that she didn't know how to persuade Su Tang to stay for a cup of tea, and just watched Su Tang leave with Ban Xia briskly.
Peony Courtyard.
Princess Nankang just woke up from her nap. While the maid helped her up, she reported that there were rumors outside the house that the eldest mistress was stingy, which made Princess Nankang burst into laughter.
It's not a good reputation.
And once word spreads, it’s not easy to clean up.
After letting her be arrogant for so long, she finally came back.
Princess Nankang sat in front of the dressing table and asked, "Is this the case for the third girl?"
The maid hesitated.
Princess Nankang said to the bronze mirror, "Tell the truth."
The maid told the truth, "The third girl asked the eldest girl to give her a real one, but the eldest girl didn't agree. They had a few words in the garden and broke up unhappy."
The princess of Nankang looked helpless. Her daughter was very competitive and didn't care about anything else. She just liked jewelry. Asking her to compensate the three girls for their jade bracelets would be hard to achieve.
But the third wife is a deep person and has a good relationship with her. It is too irrational to make her unhappy because of a jade bracelet.
Princess Nankang took a ruby bracelet from the dressing box, handed it to the maid and said, "Send it to Miss Three."
As soon as the maid here took it, a maid from the other side ran in and came forward and said, "Princess, the eldest mistress gave the three girls ten jade bracelets."
Princess Nankang laughed at this, "I really don't know whether I should call her stupid or smart. She gave away ten jade bracelets just for the sake of her reputation as a stingy person."
The maid hesitated to speak, but Princess Nankang saw it in the bronze mirror and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it."
The maid whispered, "The ten jade bracelets were exchanged by the eldest mistress for the fake ones from Jinyue Pavilion..."
Before she finished speaking, the smile on Princess Nankang's face disappeared without a trace. She angrily slapped an orchid hosta on the dressing table. She didn't control the strength well and it was smashed to pieces by her.
This time, Princess Nankang's face became even more ugly.
At this time, another maid came in and said, "Princess, Princess Zhao is here."
