Xu Wanying sneered: [You ask me, who should I ask? ]

The system was very dissatisfied and immediately urged: [No, no, host, please ask this system if Cen is old and blind and has Alzheimer's disease? ]

[You really are a dog-licker. The mother-in-law just said that to her. How could there be any deep contact in such a short time? Just give up on this idea!]

The system refuted as soon as it was put down: [Impossible, Xing Xiaoya's charm is not only for men, but also for women. She is popular with both men and women, young and old! ]

[Okay, then you can wait here slowly. ]

Xu Wanying made a direct sarcasm, and it was obvious that she was not going to get involved in the matter. She remembered that even when the system was yelling, she was sitting on the Diaoyutai with an attitude of sitting still, holding the teacup and sipping tea leisurely.

The other three people looked at each other. Jiang Jinyu and Cen Ying, mother and daughter, were connected in heart, and they understood each other with just one glance.

"Mom, my sister-in-law said that you just met a girl downstairs?" Jiang Jinyu took the initiative to mention it.

"Yes, she said that her friend's jade pendant was lost, so she asked the craftsman to make another one." Cen Ying nodded.

Hearing this, the system instantly became excited again: [Ahhh, it's this jade pendant! Didn't Cen Ying see the pattern of the jade pendant just now? She only needs to take a look to know that it is the jade pendant worn by Jiang Chengli! ]

[Jiang Chengli is out on business, and hasn't sent any news back for a long time. Last time, he finally got someone to send a sealed letter back, but he almost killed Jiang Chengzhong. Isn't Cen Ying anxious at all? How can she be a mother? ]

In response to its loud shouting, Xu Wanying rolled her eyes again.

[Stop barking, or I'll be out right away and you won't hear any more news. Don't forget, you don't have much energy right now, and everything depends on me. ]

Xu Wanying responded bluntly and gave a direct warning.

This warning was obviously very effective. It immediately shut the system up and made it completely quiet.

"Whose family is that girl from?" Jiang Jinyu continued to ask.

Cen Ying shook her head and said indifferently, "I don't know her. I went down here just to pick out some jewelry for you. I haven't bought anything in the past three days. I'm in a good mood today. If you guys want anything, just tell me and I'll buy it all for you!"

She waved her hand and skipped over the topic, obviously not wanting to mention Xing Xiaoya any more.

Xing Xiaoya, who had been standing by without saying a word, instantly perked up when she heard these words. She finally seized the opportunity to show off.

You know, after she married into the Mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty, she always felt inferior because of her identity as a merchant's daughter. Therefore, she wanted to please her mother-in-law and sister-in-law, and always asked the shop to send her various kinds of jewelry, many of which were made by masters and were not only worth a fortune, but also precious and elegant.

But every time, Cen Ying and her daughter would only accept a part of it and would return the gift quickly.

At first, she tended to overthink, wondering if the women in the Jiang family were unwilling to accept her, but after getting along with them for a while, she realized that this was the upbringing that was engraved in the bones of the Cen mother and daughter.

Even if they are a family, they still interact with each other. One person cannot always make unilateral contributions, otherwise misunderstandings will easily arise.

However, Li Chunlan still likes to give gifts. Every time she sees them accepting gifts, she always feels very happy.

"Mother, how can I let you come? I'll do it, I'll do it! This is my shop. If I let you come, wouldn't it be a slap in my face? Go and call the shopkeeper up!" Li Chunlan stepped forward to stop her and immediately ordered the maid to go downstairs to call people.

"Are the things in your store just dropped from the sky? Don't you have to spend money to buy them?" Cen Ying said disapprovingly.

"That doesn't cost much. I'd be happy even if I gave you the whole store!" Li Chunlan said this with great pride.

Cen Ying didn't argue with her: "Okay, just watch it."

Anyway, I'm just looking for an excuse to talk to the shopkeeper, and I'll naturally return it later.

"Madam, Madam, please have a look. These are the treasures that have recently arrived. These are the pearls mined from the East China Sea. The largest and roundest ones were picked out from the first batch. They are all here..."

The shopkeeper introduced the items with a smile and all kinds of rare treasures piled on the table, which was dazzling.

Naturally, they all showed some appreciation for the exquisite and beautiful jewelry, but their attitude towards browsing was not urgent, but rather a leisurely state.

Cen picked a few pieces at random and asked casually, "Has the jade pendant for that girl been decided?"

The shopkeeper immediately replied, "No, the girl was born in poverty and didn't have much cash. But she was very skillful, and the silk flowers she made were very beautiful. I'm being generous, but I'm afraid they were even prettier than those in the palace. She said she was also good at making other jewelry, but she didn't have the tools, so she would send them to me for consignment when she made them in the future."

"Where are the silk flowers?" Li Chunlan instantly became interested. She had often dealt with imperial merchants before and knew that the quality of the silk flowers in the palace was already top-notch. To be praised to this extent by the shopkeeper, they must be very exquisite.

"I brought up two flowers and was just about to show them to the madam!" the shopkeeper said softly and immediately handed over the silk flowers.

Li Chunlan was stunned when she first saw it, and then she took it in her hands and examined it carefully. She couldn't help but sighed: "This craftsmanship is really good! Whether you look at it from close up or from a distance, it looks very real."

She became interested for a moment and seemed reluctant to let it go.

Seeing that she liked it, the shopkeeper immediately asked, "That girl is also a good painter. She has drawn two hairpin designs. Would you like to bring them up for you to see?"

[Hehehe, host, look at me, I said Xing Xiaoya is a popular person, right? She hasn't even met Li Chunlan, but your sister-in-law has already fallen in love with her just by two silk flowers. If they get to know each other again in the future, they will definitely become good friends. By then, you, the sister-in-law, will have to stand aside! ]

When the system saw this, it immediately became excited.

Li Chunlan immediately threw the silk flowers back and said anxiously, "It's up to you. They are just two silk flowers. It doesn't matter whether you wear them or not. You are not a master, so you are not worthy of my personal attention."

When the system heard this, it immediately started to scream: [Ahhh, another person who doesn't know the value of things. Just wait, Xing Xiaoya is the chosen one. She will become a master of hairpin making in the future. Other shops will regard her as their treasure. When Li Chunlan's business is affected, she will naturally cry and beg her for help! ]

Xu Wanying sneered: [System, you are talking in your sleep again. Li Chunlan owns dozens of dowry shops, doing all kinds of things. Even if a jewelry store goes bankrupt, so what? Why are you crying and begging her? What, is Xing Xiaoya the God of Wealth? ]

The system disagreed: [Host, you are just jealous of Xing Xiaoya, so you say these sour words. Since you are bound to this system, I will be merciful and tell you some inside information. Xing Xiaoya is not only a popular person, but also a lucky charm. Whoever becomes good friends with her will have a great fortune. ]

[Just like the heroine who fell from the sky in a book, her good friends will naturally live well. Host, do you want to take the initiative to make friends with her? This system knows many of her hobbies and can provide you with a convenient way! ]

Xu Wanying didn't believe it: [Really? Then Jiang Chengli is so close to her, is he appointed Prime Minister, or has he succeeded in his rebellion? ]
