She looked forward to the future, feeling that her hardships had finally come to an end and she had ushered in a new life.

Fang Yue'er, who had three hundred taels with her, didn't even bother to pack her own clothes. After she walked out of the gate of Zhou Mansion, she decided to go to the shops on Zhuque Street to pick out some beautiful clothes.

This is the first time she has visited Zhuque Street as a hostess. Because she has more leisure time, she feels so at ease at this moment.

She looked at the furnishings on Zhuque Street and saw that there were many shops on the two streets. The shelves were filled with all kinds of goods, including silk, jewelry, porcelain, tea, and all kinds of goods. Eye.

People are walking or riding in sedan chairs on the streets, and occasionally even tall horses pass by.

Fang Yue'er ignored all this. She just went straight into a grand courtyard built as grandly as a palace. The courtyard had a plaque written on it called Tianxiang Pavilion.

This Tianxiang Pavilion is a ready-made clothing store. The clothes inside are as famous as the Rouge Shop in Xiaochun Mountain. Every piece of clothing here is stunning.

It's just that it's expensive, so many people are deterred here.

Fang Yue'er has been here once, when she was a little maid accompanying the madam, and the madam chose hair-length clothes for the young lady.

She followed the lady, looking at the beautiful clothes all over the room and she was so fascinated that she couldn't move.

She even thought about how stunning she would be if she could wear one of Tianxiang Pavilion's clothes.

It's a pity that she has nothing. She is the same age as the young lady. The young lady bought her hairpins at Tianxiang Pavilion. Mrs. Zhou also held a grand hairpin ceremony for the young lady.

That day, the young lady became the most beautiful presence in the hair-raising ceremony.

Even such an ordinary lady can become such a bright and beautiful being

From that moment on, a seed was planted in her heart.

When she gets rich, she must go to Tianxiang Pavilion to buy some clothes.

So she just turned a deaf ear to the rest.

The ready-made clothing store was filled with official ladies from various families, and they took their maids and wives to choose among them.

Whenever they liked something, they would ask the maids and women to pack it up, which was really awe-inspiring.

Fang Yue'er saw the majestic behavior of these ladies and thought that she would have to choose a maid over if she had time.

After thinking about it, she also saw a beautiful piece of clothing. The fabric was so shiny that Fang Yue'er was so fascinated that she couldn't move her eyes away.

Fang Yue'er felt that if she could wear this dress, she would definitely be the most dazzling person.

Thinking of this, her hands unconsciously touched the fabric of the clothes.

However, just when she was about to touch the fabric, the waiter in the lobby immediately yelled at her, "Wait, this is not material you can touch. If it is damaged, you cannot afford to pay for it. You If you have some spare time, why not go look at the cheap clothes outside."

Fang Yue'er didn't expect that she would be so ridiculed by the other party, and she was very dissatisfied for a moment.

Then I saw the waiter carefully preparing to take the clothes he liked to please another female guest who was surrounded by people and sitting on the Taishi chair with a big belly. Although the female guest did look bright and beautiful, she had a big belly. How good it would look when worn.

Fang Yue'er became even more angry at that moment. She immediately blocked the boy's path and said, "Who are you looking down on? I was the first to take a fancy to this dress. Why do you give it to others?"

Hearing Fang Yue'er's words, the clerk looked at Fang Yue'er up and down for a long time, and then he said disdainfully to Fang Yue'er, "Just you? Can you afford this dress?"

When Fang Yue'er heard this, she couldn't help but straighten her back. She sneered and said, "I'm not here just to buy clothes! Besides, it's none of your business whether I have money or not. Don't worry, I'll still buy a piece of tattered clothes." Affordable."

However, when faced with Fang Yue'er's nonsense, the clerk didn't believe it at all. He just continued to sneer, "Can you afford these clothes, which cost a thousand taels?"

Hearing this, Fang Yue'er's arrogance just now condensed on her face.

When I was a maid

When she was young, she knew that the clothes in this store were very expensive, and she didn't dare to think about it. After all, the clothes she wore when she was a maid were only one tael of silver a piece at most, and in her previous knowledge, these were actually considered to be the best. She thought the clothes here were only ten times more expensive, or a hundred times more expensive, but she didn't expect that the clothes here were actually a thousand times more expensive.

Think about it again. The deal she made for Xu Tianyi was a deal that cost the lives of her relatives, but she actually only asked Xu Tianyi for 300 taels of silver, 300 taels, which was not even enough for a piece of clothing.

At this moment, Fang Yue'er realized how stupid her decision to leave the Zhou Mansion was with three hundred taels.

When the waiter saw that Fang Yue'er, who was still arrogant and domineering just now, actually stopped, he just sneered and said, "I know you can't afford it. A person who has been wearing a piece of tattered clothes worth one tael of silver must have been wearing it for two or three years." How can I afford a piece of clothing worth one thousand taels of silver?"

After saying this, the guy walked away from Fang Yue'er.

The people around seemed to have noticed the movement here. Everyone looked at Fang Yue'er, with a lot of gloating and contempt in their eyes.

When Fang Yue'er first entered Tianxiang Pavilion, she was still a little excited. She originally thought that she was the same existence as them, but in the end, she was just the little maid who couldn't afford clothes and could only peek.

Thinking of this, Fang Yue'er felt a burning pain on her face.

It felt like a thief being stripped naked and humiliated in public.

She felt as if everyone was laughing at her.

Fang Yue'er is not a person who can accept the fate of being laughed at. At the moment, she just tried to regain her respect. She rushed directly to the waiter and said, "Who said I can't afford this dress? I want this dress!"

The waiter in the store was still saying, "Can you afford this dress? People still need to have a little self-awareness."

Fang Yue'er was not willing to give in at all. She only said coldly, "Stop looking down on others. Isn't it just one thousand taels?"

After saying this, she even pushed the waiter away, walked straight to the young lady and said to her, "I don't know who you are, but everything has a first-come, first-served basis. I took a fancy to this dress first." ! I want this dress, you can look elsewhere."

Hearing Fang Yue'er's words, more people were watching. Some people couldn't help but take a breath, some looked at Fang Yue'er with gloating, and some were waiting with interest to see how the female guest would respond.

You must know that the person sitting in front of her is Princess Jin. This woman does not know her identity, but she dares to directly attack Princess Jin like this.

Princess Jin probably didn't expect that Fang Yue'er would come over and tell her this, but when the maid next to her was about to scold Fang Yue'er, Jiang Nianjiao waved her hand, she smiled slightly and said, "It's just a piece of clothing, girl." Why are you so excited? Since the girl likes it, then I don’t want it.”

Hearing Jiang Nianjiao's words, Fang Yue'er felt a little happy. She just said, "You know the truth."

Then she grabbed the clothes and went to the fitting room.

Seeing Fang Yue'er being so unreasonable, the store clerk quickly knelt down to Jiang Nianjiao.

"Princess, I'm really sorry for bumping into you just now."

Jiang Nianjiao just waved her hand, "It doesn't matter, we can look at other clothes."

Then Jiang Nianjiao said, "You go down first, we can see for ourselves."

Seeing Jiang Nianjiao doing this, the man had no choice but to go down.

After Fang Yue'er in the fitting room changed her clothes and came out, she felt that she was the most dazzling existence. She asked the store clerk for a bronze mirror, and then she just looked left and right in front of the bronze mirror. , no matter how she looked at it, Fang Yue'er felt that she was really radiant today.

When the waiter with the bronze mirror saw her like this, he immediately smiled and said, "Girl, this dress looks like it was tailor-made for you. I can say that if you walk on the street like this, Half of the men will be staring at you, and half of the men will hit the pillar because of staring at you."

Hearing the waiter's compliment, Fang Yue'er had a bright smile on her face.

When the clerk saw this, he immediately said to Fang Yue'er, "

Girl, do you think I should pack these clothes for you or take them away directly? "

When Fang Yue'er heard this, she just whispered, "I'm just wearing it."

Upon hearing Fang Yue'er's words, the waiter asked diligently, "How do you plan to settle the bill?"

Naturally, Fang Yue'er couldn't come up with so much cash, so she looked up at the clerk and said, "What are the payment methods you have here?"

Hearing this, the waiter just whispered, "One is to pay cash directly. The other is to send the bill to your house, but in this latter case we usually only deal with regular customers who know the details."

Hearing what the waiter said, Fang Yue'er immediately said, "Can you settle the bill like this? I really don't have that much money on me right now, but someone will pay for me. Do you think this is better? You guys can help me." Go to the Zhou Mansion to find the Zhou Mansion’s aunt. After you find their aunt, tell them that Miss Fang Yue’er has taken a fancy to a piece of clothing and wants to invite him to pay for it.”

Hearing Fang Yue'er's words, the clerk was a little embarrassed at first, but then Fang Yue'er gave the clerk a reward of ten taels of silver, which was a huge reward, and the clerk immediately changed his mind. Attitude, he just said to Fang Yue'er, "I am willing to serve the girl."

After the words fell, the waiter was about to leave in a hurry. But when the waiter who had just mocked Fang Yue'er saw that the waiter who was entertaining Fang Yue'er didn't stay here and ran out instead, he immediately grabbed him and said, "Why are you running?" Run? Didn’t you see that the store is busy?”

The clerk quickly told the clerk Fang Yue'er's words. Unexpectedly, the clerk said, "As expected, I can't afford clothes. It seems that I caught a rich man."

However, although the clerk despised Fang Yue'er, he did not stop him. After all, as long as they had money to pay, he had no right to care about where the other party's money came from.

After the boy was released, he immediately hurried to Zhou Mansion.
