Several people quickly turned around and arrived at the jewelry store. The shopkeeper greeted the three of them as soon as they entered.
"Why are the young master's family here?"
Yan Yuhuan took a closer look and saw that the shopkeeper was an acquaintance. It was Shopkeeper Liu who had met in the mansion a few days ago. He had previously covered his face with his sleeves to avoid being noticed.
"Princess, come and see if you have any new jewelry."
Chuntao answered on the side, and the shopkeeper quickly invited people to the third floor, which was also dedicated to entertaining the young host.
"There are some newly made ornaments. Young Master, please sit down for a while and I will bring them out for you to take a look at."
Yan Yuhuan nodded when he heard this. The waiter had already brought a lot of refreshments to prevent them from getting bored staying in the house.
Yan Yuhuan glanced at Zhou Simo next to him, thinking of his previous temptation, raised his eyes slightly, and deliberately pulled his sleeve while taking the pastry.
"Try it too, it tastes good."
Zhou Simo didn't have time to take precautions. When he noticed it, he looked at the remaining pastry residue on his sleeves, and his face turned dark in an instant.
However, Yan Yuhuan was not afraid. Instead, she was very proud of herself. Zhou Simo had deliberately tested her before, but now he was reaping the consequences.
She deliberately took the opportunity to manipulate the other person, asking him to help pass things from time to time. Finally, after eating a few pastries, she extended her hand for Zhou Simo to help wipe it.
Zhou Simo pinched the handkerchief, his cheeks were already as dark as possible. He thought Yan Yuhuan had changed before, but now it seems that it must be a temporary illusion.
However, due to disobedience, there will be more severe punishment. He stiffened his fingers, took Yan Yuhuan's hand, and wiped it clean bit by bit.
Now it was Yan Yuhuan's turn to feel a little uncomfortable. The opponent's fingers were long and strong, and there were thin calluses around them, which should have been left over from long-term martial arts training.
"Okay, it's very clean."
Yan Yuhuan quickly retracted her hand, making sure not to make herself uncomfortable.
At this moment, there was a sudden noise downstairs. Shopkeeper Liu had been down there for so long and still hadn't come back. Yan Yuhuan realized that something troublesome must have happened downstairs.
"Let's go down and see what's going on."
Yan Yuhuan was walking in front, and through the gap in the stairs, he saw a young girl coming downstairs, wearing gold and silver, looking very proud.
Not only that, there were many guards and girls following behind. At this time, one hand was holding his waist and the other hand was slamming the table hard.
"Is this the jewelry you sell at Zhenqiao Pavilion? The gems on it are obviously cracked, but you dare to sell such inferior goods to me."
"Miss, this is not something from our Zhenqiao Pavilion at all. Although the style is similar to what we sold some time ago, there are still subtle differences."
Shopkeeper Liu tried his best to explain, his tone full of helplessness, as if this was not the first time he had faced this situation.
Chuntao took in the whole scene and said with a somewhat dissatisfied tone, it must be the fault of the bank across the street, they only use these dirty tricks.
"Oh? You said it was the other side that did it. What on earth is going on?"
Yan Yu was also curious in her heart. Could it be a malicious means of business competition?
"To return to the princess, our Zhenbao Pavilion is the best jewelry shop in the capital. When Madam was still with His Majesty, the business was booming."
Speaking of this, Chuntao paused and carefully observed Yan Yuhuan's expression. There was no big change before continuing.
"But ever since Madam and Your Majesty separated, the bank store opposite has been causing trouble for us. Last time, their young master insisted on going upstairs to look for someone. Fortunately, Madam met him and asked someone to drive him away."
The young owner of the silver building opposite is a man. Generally speaking, the shop staff are ladies, so in this era there are not many requirements for generosity between men and women.
But just imagine, this private space in the box can suddenly be invaded by men at will. Which lady will dare to come to their store to buy things in the future?
"Didn't mother find a way to renovate the silver building opposite?"
When Chuntao heard this question, her expression became even more angry, and she still answered in a low voice.
"His cousin is Prince Duan's concubine. Prince Duan is behind the entire Yinlou. Madam can only tolerate it temporarily."
Yan Yuhuan didn't expect that her mother's current situation was already so difficult. After all, she and your majesty were husband and wife before, but after the divorce, the cheap father turned out to be such a loser.
It is shameful for people to cause trouble in private.
Thinking of this, I took a deep breath and saw that the situation below was getting worse and worse, so I hurriedly walked downstairs.
"Miss, you just said that you bought this hairpin at Zhenqiao Pavilion. When did you buy it? How much did it cost when you bought it? Which shop waiter welcomed you?"
After Yan Yuhuan came downstairs, she asked several questions in succession. The other party was speechless for a moment. After she realized what she was doing, she frowned and frowned at her.
"It's been so long, how can I still remember it clearly, let alone what does this matter have to do with you?"
"Of course it does matter. If you come to my house to buy something, don't you know that I am the young master here?"
Yan Yuhuan touched her face as she spoke, thinking that even the waiter in a restaurant could recognize her today, but not the person in front of her.
"I think my face is quite famous. Anyone who doesn't know me is either not from the capital, or she's not a lady from a noble family at all."
It seemed that something was on his mind. The other person's face was panicked, and he opened his mouth to defend himself.
"What nonsense are you talking about? My parents are both businessmen. Do you think I am dressed like a servant?"
Yan Yuhuan looked up and down carefully, and then circled around her. The people around her didn't know what was going on, and they all looked over curiously.
She put her hand on the woman's shoulder and said in a moderate voice: "It's quite hard to sweep the yard on weekdays, isn't it? The master behind you asked you to make trouble, and he didn't treat you well. a little."
Yan Yuhuan shook his head and sighed as he spoke. Without giving the woman a chance to refute, he took her hand and raised it.
"The calluses on the palms and the tiger's mouth are relatively heavy. This is obviously the result of grasping the handle. Which noble lady would leave such thick calluses on the palms of her hands?"
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but look at her and found that although the woman's clothes were gorgeous, they didn't fit her well. As for the maids and servants behind her, they were attacking her on the surface, but secretly suppressing their smiles.
Everyone is not a fool, so they naturally understand that what Yan Yuhuan said is the truth.
