"Fifth Princess, Sixth Princess, why are you here?"
Zhu Yan was surprised and hurried forward to greet him.
"Hmph, you Mingshang Pavilion is opening today and you didn't tell us. Fortunately, I heard my mother mentioned it, otherwise I would have missed such a lively event."
The sixth princess looked around as she walked inside.
Regardless of whether you recognize him or not, you must kneel down and salute at this moment.
"Hey... don't be too polite. Like everyone else, I am here to congratulate the opening of Mingshang Pavilion. Let's go and see what we have. My fifth sister and I also want to buy some clothes. Don't delay us. Time, you know, it’s not easy for us to go out.”
Now that the fifth princess said this, Mrs. Li, Mrs. Yongqinghou Shizi and others naturally realized their interest and stayed away.
Mrs. Yongqing Hou Shizi couldn't wait to leave Mingshang Pavilion with her daughter Meng Yijiao. She only asked the third lady Shen and the third wife of the uncle's house Jiang to tell Princess Shanning and Zhu Yan, but did not go to say goodbye in person.
As for Meng Yijiao, Mrs. Sun felt that her daughter needed to be properly disciplined after she returned home.
The sixth princess's mother-in-law, Concubine Xin, is the eldest daughter of Duke Zhenguo and the younger sister of the prince's son. The sixth princess is the cousin of Zhu Yan and Zhu Ni. The three of them are similar in age. Although Concubine Xin only has the daughter of the sixth princess, she has always been She was always favored, so she often brought her two nieces to the palace to play with her. Zhu Yan had a good relationship with the Sixth Princess and they could make jokes, big or small, but Zhu Ni could not.
The sixth princess doesn't like her, and she doesn't like the sixth princess either.
Maybe it was because the sixth princess didn't like her that she didn't like the sixth princess.
Zhu Ni himself doesn't know whether there is a causal relationship between the two.
So when the sixth princess took the fifth princess to talk to Zhu Yan, Zhu Ni secretly walked to the embroidered shoe area and avoided it. Yin had no choice but to accompany her there.
"It's still the same. I didn't say anything to her. What I did was as if we all bullied her!"
The sixth princess noticed Zhu Ni's avoidance from the corner of her eye and said unhappily.
"You are here to congratulate Sister Shuang and I on our successful business. You don't care about anything else."
Although Zhu Yan herself didn't like her cousin, she didn't want anyone to talk about her.
"That's right, are you Sister Shuang from Anping's residence?"
The sixth princess looked at Geng Xingshuang, who hurriedly knelt down and saluted again, "I've seen the fifth and sixth princesses!"
In the middle of her salute, she was pulled up by the Sixth Princess.
"As I said, we are guests today, so we don't need to salute. However, you are Cousin Yan's best friend. I saw you today and I feel very amiable, so we should be considered friends in the future. There is no need to salute when I meet you. ”
"Thank you for your love, princess!"
"You're welcome, Cousin Yan, please take us for a walk with Sister Shuang!"
"You are late, there are not many left now."
Zhu Yan said and glanced at the embroidered shoe area. Geng Xingshuang understood and led the two princesses upstairs. They happened to meet Princess Shanning and Mrs. Ruan who were coming downstairs after hearing the noise below.
"Auntie, are you here?"
"Aunt Shanning!"
Because her mother-in-law, Concubine Xin, is the sister of the Crown Prince of Zhen Guo, she can call Princess Shan Ning her aunt. However, the fifth princess has no connection with Zhen Guo Duke's palace and must be called by the royal family.
"Why are you here? Do you leave the palace? Do the Emperor and Concubine Xin and Concubine Zhang know?"
Zhang Bin is the biological mother of the fifth princess.
"Don't worry, aunt, we have reported the matter to my father and concubine. If Cousin Yan hadn't told me, I would have just heard my concubine explain that Shang Pavilion is opening today. I have been pestering her for a long time... I begged my concubine for a long time. The concubine agreed, and went to Ningsheng Hall to beg her father for a long time, which delayed her for half the morning. Otherwise, we would have come long ago. Now this shop is empty. Auntie, if I can't choose a good one, you have to let me go. Cousin Yan asked the embroiderer to tailor a set of the best clothes sold here for me and my fifth sister."
Before Princess Shanning could speak, the sixth princess turned her eyes and saw Mrs. Ruan standing next to Princess Shanning.
"Is this lady the mother of Sister Shuang? Mrs. Geng, please speak up for me."
Ruan had never seen the princess before. When she just heard Princess Shanning talking to the Sixth Princess, she stood aside and didn't dare to move. She just wanted to wait for them to finish talking and find an excuse to leave as soon as possible, but she didn't expect that the Sixth Princess Unexpectedly, the topic changed and turned to her again.
Mrs. Ruan calmed down and asked in her heart that she could no longer be as flustered as when she first met Princess Shanning. She had lost her daughter's face. What was she afraid of! Why are you panicking? Princess Shanning is also the aunt of the two princesses, isn't she also very kind?
Moreover, this sixth princess spoke in a friendly tone and had a smile on her face, so she was not domineering at first glance.
"If you go back to the Sixth Princess, you can see the clothes in the shop. I don't know how happy Sister Shuang and the others are. If you have any requests, just ask and they will not fail to agree."
Princess Shanning laughed and scolded: "I haven't said anything yet. You are doing this and that, but there is no one like you to do things like this. Go and see it. If you don't see it, you really have no choice."
There were really not many clothes left, and the two princesses were both of medium and well-proportioned figures. This size sold best, but none of the clothes they were interested in were of suitable size.
In the end, the two of them each ordered a spring dress and a summer dress. Hualian looked at the four ingots of silver in her hands in a daze.
This ingot is twenty taels, a total of eighty taels, four pieces of clothes. Even if the additional price of customization is included, it is not more than thirty taels at most. This time, it is more than doubled. How dare she Accept it, and besides, they are two princesses, so it is appropriate not to accept money.
"Hurry and accept it. This is not only money for custom-made clothes, but also a gift. Fifth sister and I thought about it and decided that there is no money for anything, which makes Cousin Yan even happier."
Zhu Yan said angrily: "You send gifts as you wish, and you also tease me. When it comes to loving money, there are people here who love it more than me."
"Sister Yan and I are as good as each other!"
Geng Xingshuang responded reflexively.
"Hahaha, Sister Shuang said it well." The sixth princess laughed.
The fifth princess also pursed her lips and smiled.
This is the most expressive moment the fifth princess has had since entering the store.
"Sister Shuang, just your words made my fifth sister laugh. I will invite you to play in the palace more often in the future."
Geng Xingshuang complained in her heart, but she responded with a generous face, "I haven't been to the palace yet. If I can go and see it, I can be regarded as someone who has seen big scenes."
After finally seeing off the two princesses, Geng Xingshuang breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhu Yan couldn't help but smile, "Didn't you deal with it quite easily just now? I thought you weren't nervous at all."
"The princess is a princess after all. No matter how friendly she is, it's my first time meeting her, so I won't be nervous at all."
Geng Xingshuang was telling the truth.
