Chapter 192: A Shop That Doesn't Make Money
Pu Yangxuan took her hand and walked to the carriage, "Let's go back to the Weiguo Mansion first." ”
"I can't make it to lunch when I go back at this hour."
Pu Yangxuan said: "Why don't you go to the wine shop for a light meal at noon?" Go to the East Market for a while and return to the Gongfu before dinner? ”
"That's a good proposal." Xue Jinyi's eyes were shining, she thought so.
The two said goodbye to Xiaobao's mother and others, got into the carriage and returned to the capital, and went to the wine store first according to the plan.
After eating, Xue Jinyi discussed the cooking method of the dishes with the chef of the wine shop for a while, then changed back to the original white and red skirt, and after tidying up her makeup, she took Pu Yangxuan's arm and swaggered around the East Market.
After a while, someone recognized their identities, and everywhere they went, there were many discussions.
"You see, after the King of Chu and the princess got married, they felt even more different!"
"I feel more idle...... Look at the maid who followed behind, how many things were in her hands? ”
"Hehe, after all, the princess brought such a rich dowry, and she can finally spend a lot of money to enjoy it, right?"
"Hey, I thought that there was a matter of resettlement of refugees before, and King Chu would have a serious errand after he got married."
"What do you think, looking at the appearance of others, how important is it to have a happy life doing errands?"
Xue Jinyi turned a deaf ear to those discussions, and dragged Pu Yangxuan into a rouge gouache shop, one of her dowries.
This shop is nothing in the huge eastern city of the capital, the location is not good, the business is average, when Xue Jinyi walked in, there were only three or five sporadic customers, two of them went out in a circle, and the rest were still picking.
She knows that the goods in the shop are all good things, but other shops also have them, and even the utility is better for women who pursue beauty, and the price is a little cheaper, so why should people buy it in this shop?
She estimated according to the flow of customers that this shop did not make much money, but Sun Suci still arranged for someone from the Sun family to take care of it, probably because of greed, no matter what kind of thing it is, you have to take it for yourself.
The shopkeeper had never seen Xue Jinyi and didn't know what she looked like, but seeing the bright robes of the pair of men and women who came in, he knew that they were either rich or expensive, and they greeted her warmly.
"Childe, Madame is well, we have all kinds of rouge gouache in our shop, all of which are high-quality goods, and we sell some gold, silver and jade jewelry, can you take a look?"
Xue Jinyi didn't identify herself, and asked with a smile: "Shopkeeper, I've been looking bad lately, and my face is a little yellow, please introduce some rouge that suits me." ”
The shopkeeper carefully looked at her face, and hurriedly recommended the most expensive one in the shop, "This thing is called Hibiscus, after smearing, Mrs. Bao, your face is fair and smooth, like a hibiscus out of the water, comparing everyone else!" ”
The other customers who were still in the store listened, put down what they were holding, and went out with a disgusted expression.
Xue Jinyi was speechless, how could anyone do such a business, no wonder the shop was so bleak.
She tried this rouge called "Hibiscus", pretended to be angry, and said coldly: "Nonsense, how can I look at it that it is not suitable for me at all?" Is there anyone else in your store that I can recommend? ”
The shopkeeper reluctantly smiled and said, "How can it be, madam, I look better at you!" ”
"You mean I don't have good eyes?" Xue Jinyi glanced at him.
"Uh......" the shopkeeper waved his hand busily, "Madam, the little one has no such meaning. Or, you ask your husband, isn't it good-looking? ”
He pinned his hopes on the cold-faced boy, thinking that ordinary men don't know rouge gouache, maybe it's perfunctory?
In his expectation, Pu Yangxuan said: "In my eyes, my wife is naturally the best-looking. ”
The shopkeeper's face was happy.
"But whether you like it or not depends on my wife." Pu Yangxuan's speech was supplemented.
“……”
Xue Jinyi sighed and looked around the storefront, "It seems that you don't have anything here that can satisfy me." ”
"Madame......" The shopkeeper laughed more ugly than crying.
Xue Jinyi let out a disgusted "tsk" twice, and looked at the shopkeepers who were shrinking their necks, "What about you, there is really no one who can give me some pointers?" Could it be that you don't do the business of delivering to your door? ”
The shop guys looked at each other, and no one dared to step forward.
The shopkeeper's heart was more bitter than eating Coptis chinensis, and in order to make money, he hurriedly picked up a box of lipstick, "Madam, can you take a look at this again?" The color can make your lips look like peach blossoms and improve your complexion at the same time! ”
Xue Jinyi glanced at the purple and red color in the box, played the folding fan in her hand, and walked out with a twist of footsteps.
There is no need for such shopkeepers and fellows to continue to try.
The shopkeeper shouted unrelentingly: "Madam, wait a little longer, listen to the little one......"
Xue Jinyi left without looking back, and said softly: "Fortunately, I didn't expect anything, so I wasn't disappointed at all." It's just ......" she glanced back at the rouge shop with a lot of birds, "The shop that doesn't make much money, the Sun family still has a few idlers, is it really because of insatiable greed and not because he wants to occupy the Xue family's things?" ”
Pu Yangxuan said: "It's very simple to check, look at the figure of those people, they don't know martial arts, they just need someone to wait for the rabbit." ”
Xue Jinyi nodded.
"I'll do it."
Xue Jinyi grabbed his arm again, and continued to shop with a smile, almost halfway through the Shen time, and then went back to the Weiguo Mansion.
Not long after Xue Zhao returned home, the news of Miss Jin's return came from the concierge.
He instructed the whole family to go to the door to greet him as a sign of respect for the king and princess of Chu.
Xue Fangyi didn't want to go in the main hall, she was about to become the crown princess, why should she go to greet the princess in person.
"I haven't registered as a concubine yet," Xue Zhao couldn't see the second daughter's careful thoughts, "You are only the second lady of the Weiguo Mansion, don't be arrogant." ”
Xue Fangyi was blamed by her father, and her face was a little unbearable.
Chen Jingyao gently tugged at her sleeve, "Only Xue Jinyi came back to the door alone, how good is it for you to go and see her jokes?" ”
"Yes......" Xue Fangyi smiled slightly, glanced at her father and grandmother who were talking, and walked to the door with her head held high, just as the two carriages of the Chu Palace's mansion stopped at the door.
After talking to that side, he would drag the King of Chu until dark, maybe he wouldn't have time to return to the capital today, let alone accompany the little slut back to the door.
Tomorrow, the whole capital will spread the joke that Princess Chu returned to the door alone.
She smiled even brighter, ready with a belly full of mocking words, and waited for the protagonist to play.
Soon, the car door was opened, and Xue Jinyi appeared on the wheel with her skirt and looked at everyone with a soft and gentle smile.
"Xue Jinyi, oh no...... Princess Chu, are you back? Xue Fangyi asked in a strange way: "Why don't you see the King of Chu, didn't he come?" ”
Xue Jinyi looked at her and asked with a deep smile: "Why is Sister Fangyi so anxious to see her brother-in-law, the prince knows that she is going to be jealous." ”
