Chu Wanyan blushed instantly because of these words, "What a joke, who said that I can't pay the money? Why don't you go out and ask around? I'm the third lady of the Ning'an Marquis Mansion!"

"So what?" The woman in purple snorted nonchalantly, "Young ladies from the Hou family also have to pay for the phoenix crown. If you are hesitant, don't embarrass yourself."

After saying that, the woman in purple said to the shopkeeper: "I want this phoenix crown."

"No! I was the one who took a fancy to it first. This phoenix crown can only belong to me!" Chu Wanyan said immediately.

Not to be outdone, the woman in purple said, "I can add money!"

"Do you think anyone can't afford to pay more? I can also pay more!"

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, at this moment, another maid suddenly walked in outside the shop and spoke to the woman in purple.

"Miss, I have found a better phoenix crown. It is one of a kind. Please go and have a look with me."

"Seriously?" After hearing this, the woman in purple suddenly became interested and pointed at the phoenix crown, "Are you sure it's better than this?"

"Of course, I promise! Compared with that one, this one is simply petty."

"Girl, it's okay for you to go to another house, but don't belittle our things." The shopkeeper immediately became unhappy.

The woman in purple took out a piece of silver directly from her sleeve and threw it to the shopkeeper happily.

"No, I'll use this money as an apology to the shopkeeper."

As he spoke, he still spoke sarcastically to Chu Wanyan.

"As for this phoenix crown, leave it to some petty people. What I want to use, naturally, is the best."

"you……"

Chu Wanyan gritted her teeth in anger. Seeing the woman in purple leaving, she had no intention of buying the phoenix crown anymore, so she pulled Chu Huanyan and followed her.

"I want to see if there is anything better. Maybe I am bragging!"

When the woman in purple heard this, she turned her head and glanced at Chu Wanyan with a half-smile.

"Hmph, it doesn't matter if you keep up, you can't afford it anyway."

After crossing the long street, not far away, the woman in purple was led by the maid into another jewelry shop.

Compared with the previous one, this shop is obviously much different in terms of size and decoration. There are not many customers in the shop, only a shopkeeper is greeting them.

"How could such a shabby shop be better..."

Midway through Chu Wanyan's mocking words, when she saw the phoenix crown that the shopkeeper took out, everything got stuck in her throat.

The same pure gold dotted with jade, but the phoenix crown is no longer inlaid with pearls, but with rubies one after another.

The green jade and red gems echo each other, and the top of the crown is also inlaid with luminous pearls. At first glance, it is bright and gorgeous.

Although some people may think it is too gorgeous and loses elegance.

But for Chu Wanyan, all she could think about at the moment was that if she could wear this phoenix crown, she would surely steal the show!

"I want this phoenix crown!" Chu Wanyan hurriedly spoke first.

"Girl, this phoenix crown costs ten thousand taels of silver. Are you sure you really want it?" the shopkeeper asked with a smile.

"So expensive?" Chu Wanyan was shocked by the price.

"This girl, not to mention anything else, the gems on this phoenix crown are worth a lot of money. Ten thousand taels of silver is really not expensive. If the little old man hadn't sold the shop and returned to his hometown, he wouldn't have I will take out this treasure." The shopkeeper explained with a smile.

"Why bother talking to her? She can't afford it at first glance." The woman in purple glanced at Chu Wanyan sarcastically, "Not everyone is worthy of such a precious phoenix crown, and I am the most suitable."

"Who said I can't afford it!" Chu Wanyan gritted her teeth, "Shopkeeper, I want this phoenix crown!"

"Wan Yan!" Chu Huanyan, who had been silent all this time, frowned and pulled the person aside, "Don't be ridiculous, buy a phoenix crown for 10,000 taels of silver, are you crazy?"

"Sister, I have been so humiliated. If I don't buy it, I will lose all my face!" Chu Wanyan looked at the phoenix crown excitedly, "And look at that phoenix crown, it is so luxurious. If I can wear it, If it gets married, it will definitely become the envy of all women!"

"No, the remaining silver of the Hou Mansion is only seven or eight thousand taels. If you buy this phoenix crown, not to mention that all your dowry is gone, even the wedding banquet will have to be simple." Chu Huanyan objected firmly.

"Keep it simple, keep it simple. As for the dowry... I bought this phoenix crown and there are so many gems on it. Am I still worried about not having a dowry?"

"But even so, the money is not enough, we still can't afford it."

Chu Wanyan hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said: "I still have some private money there, so I'll put it all together. It shouldn't be much different. For whatever is missing, eldest sister, please think of a way for me!"

"No! What can I do? I..."

"Eldest sister!" Chu Wanyan stomped her foot dissatisfied, "You are my biological sister. I am about to get married. Can't you even satisfy my wish? If my parents knew about it under Jiuquan, If you don’t, you will definitely feel uneasy!”

Chu Huanyan looked at Chu Wanyan with a look of helplessness.

"Do you really want that phoenix crown so much that you don't mind even if you don't have any dowry?"

"I don't mind!" Chu Wanyan shook her head firmly.

If she really ran out of money in the future and the limelight was already out anyway, she could just sell the phoenix crown.

Seeing that Chu Huanyan was still silent, Chu Wanyan urged again.

"Sister, please stop hesitating. If you delay any longer, you will make others laugh in vain!"

Chu Huanyan looked at Chu Wanyan quietly, and after a while, she sighed, "Okay, in that case, then it's as you wish."

"Great!" Chu Wanyan immediately walked back to the shopkeeper proudly, "Miss Feng Guan wants this!"

As she spoke, Chu Wanyan did not forget to turn her head and speak to the woman in purple.

"Of course, only this lady is worthy of such a precious phoenix crown. Not just any cat or dog can buy it."

The woman in purple frowned, "Shopkeeper, I can increase the price!"

Chu Wanyan's face froze and she immediately looked at the shopkeeper.

"This lady, I'm really sorry to open the door to do business. It's a first-come, first-served basis. Since this lady has opened the door first, then naturally we have to sell to her."

Hearing what the shopkeeper said, Chu Wanyan felt relieved and looked at the woman in purple with even more pride.

After paying the deposit, she hurriedly urged Chu Huanyan to go back to the house with her to get the money.

After taking out all his personal money and accepting the eight thousand taels given by Chu Huanyan, Chu Wanyan finally gathered enough money and bought back Fengguan with satisfaction.

What she didn't know was that shortly after she returned home, Chu Huanyan left the house through the back door and returned to the shop in the afternoon...
