The reborn sweet girl always wants to escape, but the abstinent prince hugs her and coaxes her!
Chapter 280 Why should I give you face?
The shop owner of Zouji Cloth Shop did not hide his disdain for Xu Rongrong at all, and talked endlessly to the maid who prepared Xu Rongrong's wedding dress:
"Don't think that just because she is a county owner, you think she is very rich."
"She is actually a poor girl!"
"Mrs. Xu's wife has been tailoring clothes in our cloth shop since she came to Beijing. Every time I go to the Xu Mansion, she is either wearing the second lady's old clothes or picking up the third lady's old clothes. The clothes she wears are not as good as the embroidered clothes I bring to the house. Mother, I don’t even have a single coin.”
"Give her a few more expensive wedding dresses from the shop, and you'll definitely scare her away!"
But the maid still didn't know why: "But...she is now the head of Ping'an County, personally designated by His Majesty. She can't be as embarrassed as in the Xu Mansion, right?"
"So what?" the shopkeeper sneered, "You don't understand the ways of the noble world. She is not related to His Majesty, and even though she received the title of County Lord, she didn't have much money in her account, and His Majesty and the nobles in the palace Although there are rewards, the things rewarded are all rare and cannot be easily exchanged for money!"
"I see." The maid nodded in confusion, "Then I will listen to you, my master. There happen to be a few sets of wedding dresses in the shop that have been unsold. I will bring them to you right now."
The storekeeper nodded: "Well, you are smart and know everything. I sent her over as soon as possible to help me. Today, Princess Lingxi from Northern Xinjiang is here. This is the rich owner!"
"Yes."
After a while, four wedding dresses of Shu embroidery, Su brocade, blue water and fox satin were placed in front of Xu Rongrong.
The maid who came to serve changed from her previous cautiousness, with a distant politeness on her face: "Four sets of exquisite wedding dresses from Cloth Village are now here. County Lord, please take your time to choose."
Xu Rongrong raised her eyes slightly: "Thank you for your hard work."
The maid stood aside: "This is what the slave family should do. The county master is being polite."
"It's because I worked so hard for you to find these four sets of wedding dresses that can't be sold at all." Xu Rongrong sneered.
"How does the county master know..." After the maid blurted out, she immediately changed her words, "The county master said that these four sets are the most expensive wedding dresses in the cloth shop, so they are not easy to sell."
"What do you mean!" Luo Shu heard the strangeness in it, and his eyebrows suddenly stood up.
"What the slave family said is the truth, and it is not intended to target the county owner. The county owner can definitely afford it."
"You!" Luo Shu put his hands on his hips and was about to curse, but when he saw the young lady sitting aside enjoying a cup of tea, he extinguished his anger.
Sure enough, Xu Rongrong took two sips of tea and put down the tea cup: "You and your boss think these four sets of wedding dresses cannot be sold because they are expensive?"
"What else?" The shop owner of Cloth Village opened the curtain and came in, "We are not very talented, but every piece of clothing is made of genuine materials! The four sets in front of the county master are all of the best Shu embroidery, Su brocade, and Bishui. And fox satin!"
When Xu Rongrong saw the store owner coming in uninvited, she raised her eyebrows slightly and said with a smile: "Hasn't Zouji Cloth Store been operating in Beijing for a hundred years? Why don't you even understand these simple principles now?"
The storekeeper's expression changed after hearing this: "The slave family wants to hear the county master's opinion today!"
"When a noble girl in the capital gets married, most of them will stay at home two months in advance and embroider the wedding dress stitch by stitch. Even those who are not good at female craftsmanship will hire an embroiderer to sew at home, so naturally they won't come. Purchase from a ready-made clothing store. Since I am a very small number of people, the demand is not high, and these four sets of wedding dresses are flashy, so naturally no one cares about them!"
"Let's talk about this set of Shu embroidery first. The patterns are complicated and heavy, but when used on a wedding dress, it looks old-fashioned. Most of the girls to be married are in their [-]s and [-]s. Who would be willing to wear such a thick, old-fashioned wedding dress?"
"Although this Su brocade set is very sparkling, it is very easy to get smudged and untied. From the beginning of the wedding dress to getting on the sedan chair, getting off the sedan chair, entering the house, and doing the ceremony...if you are not careful, the wedding will be ruined." Yi Yixiao is generous, but which woman dares to take such a risk?"
"Then comes this blue water wedding dress. It looks thin and light, but it can't hold back the wind or stop the breath. It's clear and has a hint of frivolity. On a day like this, who would dare to show it in front of her husband's family? Such a romantic attitude?"
"What about... this fox satin suit?" the shopkeeper said unconvinced, "It is made of thin fox fur fused with satin silk. No one will say it is frivolous!"
"But it's heavy!" Xu Rongrong pursed her lips and said with a smile, "The phoenix crown when you get married is already very heavy. If you wear this one again... I'm afraid that the wedding ceremony will become a chore in the blink of an eye."
"..." The store owner was speechless for a moment.
These four sets of wedding dresses have indeed been displayed in the cloth shop for several months. Many people looked at them, but no one wanted to buy them.
She always thought it was because the price was too expensive, but she didn't expect...
After talking for a long time, Xu Rongrong felt a little dry. She drank a cup of tea and stood up to leave.
The shopkeeper hurriedly raised his hand: "County Lord, wait... slave family..."
Xu Rongrong turned around, glanced at the shopkeeper's face with cold eyes, and shouted: "Kneel down!"
"Huh?" The store owner was a little confused.
The maid on the side did not react.
"County Master, this is..." the shopkeeper asked again.
"Kneel down!" Xu Rongrong said again, her voice colder than before.
"The servants don't understand."
Luo Shu stepped forward: "Although you are a wealthy cloth shop owner, you are also a commoner. Shouldn't you kneel down when you see the county lord?! The county lord is trying on clothes here. If you don't do it yourself, shouldn't you? Should I kneel down and apologize?!"
The store owner suddenly felt his hands and feet getting cold.
Ever since the owner of Ping'an County entered the store, she still looked at her as the stepdaughter of the Xu family, but she didn't expect that he would counterattack based on her identity...
Under Xu Rongrong's cold gaze, she slowly knelt down, and the maid standing behind her also knelt down together.
The shop owner even leaned down and nodded: "I would like to extend my regards to Lord Ping'an County. I didn't treat you well before, so please forgive me for being generous this time."
Xu Rongrong slowly walked up to her: "You thought I was a poor and weak girl without the support of my parents, so you instigated others to bully and humiliate me. Now... I want you to have a taste of bullying others, just kneel down like this."
As soon as she finished speaking, a clear laughter sounded outside the door: "The Lord of Pingan County is really full of temperament."
The next moment, the door was pushed open.
Princess Lingxi came in with an enchanting maid. She looked at the shopkeeper who was kneeling on the ground and said with a smile: "I asked you why it took you so long to choose clothes. It turns out that you were tripped and kneeled down here. Come on. Get up."
After saying that, she said with a hearty smile: "She didn't mean to offend Ping An, so just spare her this time!"
"No." Xu Rongrong said lightly.
Princess Lingxi's smile froze on her face.
She frowned slightly: "Why doesn't the county master even give me face?"
"This is the capital of Da Zhou, and I am the county head of Da Zhou. Why should I give you the face of the North Xinjiang princess?" Xu Rongrong asked with a sneer.
"Don't think that just because she is a county owner, you think she is very rich."
"She is actually a poor girl!"
"Mrs. Xu's wife has been tailoring clothes in our cloth shop since she came to Beijing. Every time I go to the Xu Mansion, she is either wearing the second lady's old clothes or picking up the third lady's old clothes.
