Chapter 233 She has done me a favor.
"What do you mean? Whose daughter is she? Why are you so afraid of her, old man?" the clerk asked the old accountant jokingly.
"Did a dog eat your eyeballs? A fellow doesn't know many people. The incident of Princess Chaoyang intercepting Prince Nan'an was a hot topic on the streets a while ago."
"This is the fox Lin." The old accountant glanced at the young man.
The young man slapped his thigh and said, "It's her! I was wondering why she looked familiar, but her family background isn't particularly impressive."
"Are you not allowed to provoke me?"
"Why are you so scared now?"
The old accountant ignored the young man and continued to look through his account books.
A few rays of sunlight shone through the window lattice onto the wooden table, which was filled with account books and abacus.
The old accountant flipped through the account book while muttering, "In an emergency, it's better to have less trouble than more. You are still young."
"I don't understand the principle of one moment at a time."
At this time, several ladies, the housekeeper, and the maids who were looking at clothes on the other side came over, talking as they walked.
They walked up to the clerk's office and said with a frown, "You guys are really in need of a waitress."
"Especially the Su-style ones you guys made, which are so well-fitted. I heard there are waitresses in Yangzhou, and you can try them on?"
"Our eldest lady's family is from that place."
"You can only look at it when you put it there. Who has the vision to tell whether it is good or bad when it is hung like this?"
"How about this? I've always taken care of your business in the past, right?"
"Can you have someone send the clothes to the mansion so we can try them on first?"
The waiter smiled bitterly, "You can't do that! No matter how rich Yangzhou is, it can't be as expensive as our capital, right?"
Madam Yushi's face darkened. "What do you mean? You won't give it to me?"
The young man shook his head repeatedly, "No, Madam Censor, it's mainly because there are not many female tailors sent to the inner house."
"Can you wait two days?"
"These days are fully booked," the boy explained quickly.
"Wait two days? Wait several two days? If you wait too long, it will be the New Year directly." The censor's wife sneered, revealing her displeasure in her words.
"Forget it, it seems like you guys don't need a few of us as guests."
"Come on, let's go somewhere else."
"Are you still here? These are clothes that have been touched by men. Who would dare to wear them?"
The censor's wife's words were full of maggots, and just one sentence made the people who were watching sick.
"Let's go somewhere else."
"No, no, no" the old accountant stepped forward and stopped the ladies.
"I'll have someone follow you there right away."
After saying that, he turned to the young man who was still in a daze, "What are you still standing there for?"
"Let your mother go with you."
"My mother?" The young man widened his eyes, pointed at his forehead, and looked confused.
"Yes! Your mother! We are not asking her to work for free. We have to pay her." The old man in the accountant glared at the young man with disappointment.
"What's the matter? You don't want to do it anymore? If you don't want to do it, there are plenty of people who will do it."
At this point the old accountant bowed his head and whispered to the clerk,
"You are blind! Don't you see that the censor's wife is obviously on the side of that fox Lin?"
The young man nodded helplessly, and bowed to the censor's wife, "Madam, please wait a moment, I will have someone take it to your house."
Madam Yushi nodded and patted the hand of the little maid who was supporting her. "Come on, let's go sit there and wait for a while."
As she walked to her seat, the censor's wife quietly asked the little maid, "Are you satisfied now?"
"Why did you let your mother help that girl? Don't you have to tell me the reason?"
The little maid raised her face and smiled brightly, "Mother, she is the sister of the Lin family that I told you about."
"She helped me when I was in the princess's mansion."
"Otherwise I'd be miserable."
"I will definitely be whipped by Princess Chaoyang."
Madam Yushi looked out the window and said, "Oh, it's her. You didn't say hello then."
Miss Yushi smiled embarrassedly, "Aren't all of them modified?"
"inconvenient."
"Miss Lin even waved at me. We are so close to each other."
"You do not understand."
Madam Censor snorted, "Don't think I'm old and I don't know anything. I was young once too."
"It's good for you to be like this. You remember each other's kindness, but you don't have to be too enthusiastic, so as not to upset the palace."
"Look at this Miss Lin, she is really in high spirits."
……
And this Miss Lin was walking and chatting on the street with Zijuan, Qingwen and others. Zijuan even helped Daiyu carry several bags of food.
"Miss, you scared me to death when you said that in the store. I thought I was going to get beaten."
"Look at that boy, his eyes are bugging out." Zijuan looked frightened.
Lin Daiyu chuckled, "It's okay, I'm just trying to create momentum. If this store listens to me, it really deserves a waitress."
"Wouldn't it be more convenient for us to open a shop in public?"
"Besides, I've seen other ladies and girls in the store, and they won't let us fight."
Qingwen saw a jewelry store nearby and said, "Miss, shall we take a look at the jewelry store too?"
"The matching styles must be consistent and complete."
Lin Daiyu nodded. Fortunately, Qingwen was braver than Zijuan. If she was really scared like a quail when seeing a stranger, she would not be suitable for opening a shop and doing business.
For example, the snow geese are not like that, they can’t even be called out when they go out.
Is she afraid that strangers will see her beautiful face?
Thinking of this, Lin Daiyu waved her hand and said, "Let's go. I'll follow your instructions. We'll go wherever you want us to go."
"Lead the way."
In one word, Qingwen walked forward happily.
The group walked towards the jewelry store.
Unexpectedly, a man walked out of the store, lowering his head and happily weighing the gold hairpin in his hand as he walked.
Behind him were two servants holding a box, flattering him like they were free.
"Master, you bought so many jewelry for Miss."
"Miss, bring your beauty and fragrance with you, and I will definitely speak highly of you in front of Madam."
"What do you know?" the young master said, his eyebrows furrowed.
"It's impossible that all these things are brought by the young lady. The young lady lives in someone else's house. These are gifts for her."
"Speaking of which, I brought them gifts from outside, so I can look at my sister with a little more respect."
The servant looked envious, "Master, you really dote on your sister."
That is, the young master was full of pride when he mentioned his sister. "I have never seen a girl prettier than my sister."
"Even the girls in Huaye Tower can't compare to her."
The servant curled his lips, comparing his sister with the girls in the brothel. I wonder if he is really stupid or just pretending to be stupid?
"If he faces such a beautiful girl all day long, our young master's taste will definitely soar to the sky in the future."
"You can't even look down on the color of a young lady!"
"Master, look at that, oh my, it's coming over here,"
"She's wrapped so tightly that if you don't show her face, you really can't tell!"
"Isn't she beautiful?" the servant said as he turned his head and asked the young master.
Unexpectedly, the eldest young master had a dazed look on his face, but he came to his senses in an instant, snatched the jewelry box from the servant's hand, and walked towards Qingwen who was walking towards him.
