The prince dotes on his wife: a reborn peasant woman is not easy to mess with

Therefore, Princess Jialun endured it. She glared at the woman in front of her, raised her chin and said, "Let's see who is afraid of whom! I will pay 5 taels of silver."

"50 taels!" "100 taels!" "150 taels!"

There was no one around Princess Jialun, but that woman's maid was a talker. She would shout loudly every time the price was increased. The prices were getting higher and higher. Princess Jialun was also a little uneasy. But at this time, this passerby's All eyes were attracted.

The looks in the eyes of the master and servant were provocative. Princess Jialun gritted her teeth and continued to increase the price. She refused to lose face no matter what. You must know that she is a princess. If word spreads that she will lose money with the common people by increasing the price...

How embarrassing that would be! No, no, no, Princess Jialun gritted her teeth and shouted again: "300 taels!"

As soon as he said this, the stall owner almost fainted with fright.

The small street vendor was doing a small business, and the cost of the lantern was only a few taels of silver. It was originally expected to be sold for dozens of taels, but now it has doubled so much.

And judging from the expressions of the two nobles, they were ready to continue adding more, and they looked even more worried.

Some people may say, isn’t it a good thing if someone increases the price?

But once the reputation of the stall owner for his small business and dedicated business is established, ladies from aristocratic families will come here to bid. One day, there will be a quarrel. The stall owner is extremely anxious and wants to persuade him but dare not. .

Fortunately, just as they kept adding to the crowd, Zhou Xiaoyuan and Zhao Wushi followed the flow of people and came over.

In fact, Zhou Xiaoyuan was not sure where Princess Jialun would be. She just followed her and looked for her. When she caught a glimpse of Princess Jialun in the middle of the crowd, she

I was both relieved and speechless - how could this girl gather so many people anytime and anywhere?

But the person was found anyway. Zhou Xiaoyuan didn't think much, and pushed in one by one, ignoring the crowd. When she stood next to Princess Jialun, she heard her shouting: "700 taels!"

Zhou Xiaoyuan: "?"

The truth of this number scared Zhou Xiaoyuan to the point where her heart stopped. She quickly grabbed Princess Jialun and said coldly: "What's going on? What's 700 taels?"

This kind of auction is very exciting. Princess Jialun was almost immersed in it. She suddenly woke up when she heard Zhou Xiaoyuan's voice. She reacted and felt a little guilty: "...It's nothing, nothing. Why are you here?"

"If I don't come here, your family will have to pay for it." Zhou Xiaoyuan reprimanded her in a low voice, turned to look at this beautiful woman, and apologized.

She opened her mouth and was about to speak, but the maid next to the woman glared at Zhou Xiaoyuan and shouted on behalf of her master: "Then we will offer 750 taels!"

Zhou Xiaoyuan's pupils shrank, and she quickly noticed the malice of these two people.

She didn't quite understand how Princess Jialun, a silly girl, had offended them both, but Zhou Xiaoyuan had always been protective of their faults. Since these two people didn't want to die well, let's just continue bidding. Zhou Xiaoyuan looked straight and turned to face the stall. The Lord shouted: "We will give 1000 taels."

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar immediately. Even though Princess Jialun and this woman had been clamoring for a long time before, they still paid for it at a price of less than 100 taels.

It's not like Zhou Xiaoyuan just added 300 taels as soon as she came. The whole thing looks good, but how can she come up with the money?

Princess Jialun is a little panicked

, and tugged on Zhou Xiaoyuan's sleeve.

Zhou Xiaoyuan ignored it. Instead, she looked at the sickly woman and her maid, and said with a smile: "Since we are all rich people, adding 100 taels or 100 taels would be too petty. There are so many fellow villagers here." Let’s see, how about playing with the big one?”

Others don't know it, but Zhou Xiaoyuan is well aware of the psychology of these onlookers. Moreover, this woman has been arguing with Princess Jialun for so long, and she refuses to give in more or less out of consideration for face.

So she was extremely confident when she said this, without worrying that no one would agree with her.

Sure enough, as soon as Princess Jialun and Mrs. Zhao Wu cast worried looks, someone was already shouting: "Yes, yes, we are all standing here to burn incense. According to the increase of 100 taels and 100 taels, we have to When are you going to stand? Why don't you just do something big like this lady said?"

The first person to boo was the second person, and soon the surrounding onlookers started laughing, urging the woman to speak.

The woman's expression changed slightly, probably because she sensed something was wrong. Her sickly face became paler. After a while, she coughed lightly with her handkerchief in hand and winked at the maid next to her.

Zhou Xiaoyuan was still curious about what her maid wanted to do, but she didn't expect that the master and servant actually shared the same mouth.

The maid glared at Zhou Xiaoyuan and shouted again: "1500 taels!"

...So cooperative?

Zhou Xiaoyuan really smiled this time. She took Princess Jialun, whose palms were cold, and took a step back. Then she looked at the stall owner with a smile. The stall owner was already a little uneasy, but he became even more uneasy when he saw it. He shrank his neck and asked: " This lady, do you have

What do you want to say? "

"Ah, are you asking me?" Zhou Xiaoyuan pretended to be surprised, but her subordinates took Princess Jialun and took another step back. After two steps, the woman was obviously much closer to the stall owner.

She looked at Zhou Xiaoyuan's movements with a suspicious look in her eyes, but she didn't continue to speak in order to maintain her character.

He just coughed twice more weakly.

It sounded quite miserable. Zhou Xiaoyuan glanced at her and answered without hesitation, "I mean, why haven't you made a decision yet?"

"In other places, if no one bids more than three times, the highest bidder will win. Is your place an exception? This girl has already given out the price, but you have been waiting for me to bid? You look down on this girl's 1500 taels. Or do you think this girl can’t afford 1500 taels?”

Zhou Xiaoyuan's words were also quite hypocritical. He was hypocritically promoting the girl to a high position and had no intention of continuing with Zhuang. The girl was dumbfounded and looked at Zhou Xiaoyuan with a look of disbelief on her face.

Zhou Xiaoyuan felt that her eyes had never been so wide open before, otherwise why couldn't she even pretend to be so?

But it's best if she can't pretend. She was planning to trick this girl.

Zhou Xiaoyuan smiled, rolled her eyes, and pretended to see the expression on the girl's face. She was immediately shocked and said with worry on her face: "Girl, what's wrong with your eyes?"

"Why did it suddenly become like this...Ah, you can't get the 1500 taels, right? This, this, this, this is such a pity."

Zhou Xiaoyuan had genuine feelings on her face. The next moment she looked at the stall owner with a generous look and said boldly: "In that case, I will keep this lantern."

down. "

There was laughter all around, and the face of the woman hiding behind the veil turned green. She was scolded and laughed at, and she wasted time not to mention that she didn't get the lantern in the end. Just thinking about it was a terrible loss!

So she gritted her teeth and said, "Wait!"
