On the way home, Xi Qingyan's eyes lit up when she saw Xi Chuyu buying wantonly in the jewelry shop.

"Miss, do we need to go over and see her?"

The guards sent by Prince Li's Mansion saw Xi Qingyan's expression was different and asked Xi Qingyan.

They were ordered to protect and assist Miss Xi, so naturally they did not dare to neglect her.

"Need not."

Xi Qingyan looked very excited when she saw Xi Chuyu selling something, and she sneered recently.

After she took away the power of the housekeeper, Mrs. Shangshu and Xi Chuyu's monthly money passed through her hands. Xi Qingyan looked at the three-story jewelry store in front of her from a distance, one of the best in Kyoto, and knew that Xi Chuyu was short of money.

Most likely it would be embarrassing.

"It's more fun if we just watch from the sidelines."

"yes."

As soon as Xi Qingyan finished speaking, Xi Chuyu started to make a fuss with the boy in the jewelry store.

The reason was that after Xi Chuyu saw the pearls and hairpins in the store, she couldn't help but pick them up and wear them.

However, when she started to do it, the waiter in the store stopped her directly.

"Miss, I'm sorry, the jewelry in this red sandalwood brocade box has been ordered by someone. Someone from the House of Hubu Shangshu will come to pick it up in a while. Therefore, except for the people from the House of Hubu Shangshu, no one else can touch them.

.”

The waiter in the store quickly explained to Xi Chuyu.

But Xi Chuyu was filled with anger because she had just been rejected by His Highness Su Yiting. Therefore, no matter what the other party said at the moment, she couldn't listen.

"How do you do business? If you can't sell something, then don't put it here! By putting it on the counter, aren't you just telling the distinguished customers that this thing can be sold?"

Xi Chuyu would do whatever others didn't let her do.

"What's so great about the Minister of Household Affairs! I am the eldest daughter of the Minister of Etiquette! If you make me unhappy today, I will demolish your store directly! You will no longer have a foothold in Kyoto!"

Xi Chuyu ignored it and showed off her power in front of the waiter in the store.

The young man was just a servant. When he heard that Xi Chuyu had a relatively young background, he didn't know what to do.

Xi Chuyu felt proud when she saw the young boy retreating.

When she reached out to put the precious pearl hairpin in the rosewood brocade box on her head, the lady in brocade clothes walked in from the side and stopped Xi Chuyu's move!

"Where did this little girl come from? She even dared to occupy the magpie's nest with my daughter's custom-made beaded hairpin?"

The person who came was Mrs. Zhou, the wife of the Minister of the Ministry of Finance. This time Mrs. Zhou scolded Xi Chuyu!

"My daughter's precious hairpins are made from corals from the South China Sea and fine gemstones from Java. Boy, why are you so ignorant of the rules in your store? How dare cats and dogs touch my daughter's things?"

The Hubu Shangshu was originally the fat man in the court. The Hubu Shangshu was in charge of the world's money and food. Whether it was wars, taxes or money, these were all under the control of the Hubu Shangshu.

Therefore, the Minister of Hubu is mostly His Majesty's confidant, and the Minister of Hubu is somewhat disrespectful towards the ministers.

Therefore, Mrs. Hubu Shangshu has always been arrogant and domineering, and no one in Kyoto dares to offend her.

"Who are you scolding? Who is this girl? Your daughter and I are both the daughter of a minister. Who among us is more noble than the other?"

Xi Chuyu has always been taken to various banquets by her mother. At the banquets, her mother interacted with the ladies of famous families, but she was hanging around the daughter of a Kyoto official who had not yet left the cabinet. Therefore, she had never experienced the experience of the Minister of Household Affairs.

Madam is awesome.

Xi Chuyu has never been wronged several times since she was a child, and now Mrs. Hu Bu Shangshu is scolding her for being a **** girl in front of her!

Xi Chuyu couldn't swallow this bad breath.

"How dare you, a daughter of a second wife, compare yourself to my daughter here?" After Mrs. Tobe Zhou saw clearly that the person standing in front of her was Xi Chuyu, she sneered even more, "My daughter is a legitimate daughter.

Eldest daughter, how dare you, a younger daughter who has remarried, speak nonsense here?"

Mr. Zhou had never taken a fancy to Xi Chuyu at all.

Xi Chuyu and her mother have long been the laughing stock of the famous family in Kyoto, and Zhou had no scruples in mocking Xi Chuyu.

"What nonsense are you talking about here? My mother is an upright wife of a minister! My father brought her into the minister's house of the Ministry of Etiquette in a big sedan chair! I, Xi Chuyu, am an upright lady!"

Xi Chuyu is most angry when others slander her origin and reputation.

"Mrs. Shangshu? Xi Chuyu, the scandal about your family has been spread all over the capital. Do you think I am still in the dark?"

Seeing Xi Chuyu pretending to be peaceful in front of her, Mrs. Zhou sneered at the corner of her mouth.

"Didn't you say that your mother is a serious wife of the Minister of Rites? You have searched all over the capital to find out which serious wife doesn't even have the right to manage her own family?"

"Xi Chuyu, both of you, mother and daughter, are no match for the eldest daughter of the Xi family. Now it seems that the former Mrs. Shangshu is indeed more powerful. Even if she is not alive, her daughter will be the mother and daughter of you, a villain who has succeeded.

Both of you have tidied up properly!"

The Zhou family never took Xi Chuyu's mother seriously, who tried to squeeze her way into the circle of their famous family.

Now that Xi Chuyu's mother has completely lost her power, in her opinion, it is just the way of heaven that reincarnation will happen, no one will be spared by heaven!

The serious wives of Kyoto officials don't want to see those concubines showing off their power in front of them!

Xi Chuyu's mother has always blamed other people for her inability to integrate into the Zhou family's circle, but the most important problem has always been her own.

How could such a person be accepted by the original wives in Kyoto when a lowly second wife took the place of the first wife?

"Xi Chuyu, don't show your teeth in front of me. Are the things in this shop affordable for you now?"

After Zhou mocked Xi Chuyu's mother, he took her with him!

"What's so great about the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance? I, Xi Chuyu, not only want to buy things from this shop today, but I also want to buy the pearl hairpin in this red sandalwood brocade box. Mrs. Zhou, just ask for the price!"

When Xi Chuyu saw Mrs. Zhou being so arrogant, she turned back unhappily.

Although she and her mother are now in dire straits, there is no way in this world to argue with one another! She, Xi Chuyu, has been looked down upon by His Highness Su Yiting. She must not let anyone who randomly jumps out of Kyoto trample her under his feet.

!

"Hey? Xi Chuyu, are you pretending to be generous in front of me? Okay, I will help you today!"

Mrs. Zhou smiled even more happily when she saw Xi Chuyu swollen her face and pretended to be fat.

"Although, the hairpins in this red sandalwood brocade box are what I plan to give to my daughter, our family still has a set of eight thousand taels of hairpins!"

"Eight thousand taels?!"

When Xi Chuyu heard Mrs. Zhou's words, she exclaimed in surprise. She never expected that this pair of pearl hairpins would dare to ask for eight thousand taels!

"Mrs. Zhou, although I, Xi Chuyu, am rich, I can't let you ask for high prices here!"

After Xi Chuyu was surprised, he couldn't help but murmur in his heart.

But she still couldn't believe that she could only spend 8,000 taels for food, clothing, and jewelry for a year. Now Mrs. Zhou actually used 8,000 taels to buy a beaded hairpin for her daughter?!

"Young man, tell me, Xi Chuyu, how much does it cost for my wife to customize the beaded hairpin in this red sandalwood brocade box?"

Mrs. Zhou sneered at Xi Chuyu's little family and ordered the boy next to her.

"Yes, Mrs. Zhou."

The young boy had just been given a lot of trouble by Xi Chuyu, and now he was naturally willing to stand on Mrs. Zhou's side and speak for her.

"The coral above was excavated from the deep sea. The South China Sea coral is a tribute to the royal family. It is not only valuable, but also extremely rare. As for the gems in Java, it is even more priceless!"

"We invited the best craftsmen in Kyoto to make this pair of hairpins. The craftsman's fee alone cost five yuan.

One hundred taels of silver!"

The young man spoke matter-of-factly, which made Xi Chuyu's scalp tingle.

"Miss Xi Er, if you have any questions about the price of this pearl hairpin, you can go and verify it one by one. Since Mrs. Zhou is willing to part with her now, I will wrap up this pair of pearl hairpins and send them to the Minister of Etiquette.

Mansion!"

"...!!"

Xi Chuyu didn't expect that the boys would also join forces to bully others!

Now she was being roasted on the fire by Mrs. Zhou, and she was at a loss for a while. Not to mention the eight thousand taels of jewelry, even a thousand taels she couldn't get out now!

While Xi Chuyu was stunned, the boy had already rearranged the pearl hairpins in the red sandalwood brocade box and handed them to Xi Chuyu.

"Second Miss, eight thousand taels, do you want to give the shop cash or banknotes?"

"...!"

Xi Chuyu didn't expect that he was just stunned for a moment, and then there was no room for change.

"You...how can you be so careless about the eight thousand taels of silver hairpins you sell? You just touched my things and I don't want them anymore!"

When Xi Chuyu panicked, she racked her brains to think of a way to escape.

"Miss Xi Er, the people in our store know that this hairpin was custom-made by Mrs. Zhou. They have never touched it with their hands. Even when they put it into the red sandalwood brocade box, they also carried this silk kerchief.

Never touched it before."

"If we really want to dig deeper, Miss Second, you are the first person to touch this beaded hairpin with your hands."

The boy didn't panic at all and explained clearly and logically.
