Lu Yundi narrowed his eyes, revealing a very satisfied look: "Boss, your business is getting bigger and bigger, it's really enviable."
"No, no, it's all thanks to your care, ma'am." The shopkeeper responded modestly, but his eyes kept looking at the two distinguished guests' clothes and appearance.
Yan Qingyu smiled lightly, with a hint of provocation in his eyes: "Boss, do you know why we are here this time?"
The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, then smiled apologetically: "Are you two here to pick out new fabrics?"
Lu Yundi nodded gently and said, "Yes, I heard that the silk here is of high quality and novel style, so I brought my cousin here to pick some."
The shopkeeper could not contain his delight and said quickly, "Please follow me, I will take you to choose."
The three of them came to an elegant room in the silk shop, which was filled with all kinds of gorgeous silks and fabrics. Lu Yundi and Yan Qingyu browsed on the side, while the shopkeeper gave a detailed introduction.
"Madam, this piece of material is the highest quality silk from Jiangnan. It is soft in texture and has a bright luster. It is very suitable for making summer clothes." The shopkeeper picked up a piece of material and showed it to Lu Yundi.
Lu Yundi touched the material gently and frowned slightly: "Although this material is good, the color is too bright. I don't like it very much."
The shopkeeper nodded quickly and picked up a piece of elegant material: "Madam, this material is elegant in color and of excellent quality. It is very suitable for a lady like you."
Lu Yundi smiled slightly, expressing satisfaction. At this time, Yan Qingyu said, "Boss, I heard that your embroidery craftsmanship is very good. Can you let us see it?"
The shopkeeper looked proud and said, "Don't worry, the embroidery skills here are really amazing. This is our specialty and will definitely satisfy you."
As he spoke, the shopkeeper picked up an embroidery work and showed it to Yan Qingyu. Yan Qingyu observed it carefully and couldn't help but exclaimed: "It really lives up to its reputation. This embroidery craftsmanship is really exquisite."
At this moment, footsteps were heard in the corridor outside the elegant room. A middle-aged woman in ordinary clothes walked in. She was the accountant of the silk shop. Seeing Lu Yundi and Yan Qingyu, the accountant hurriedly saluted. Lu Yundi nodded slightly and asked, "Accountant, how is business recently?"
The accountant replied respectfully, "Madam, business has been very good recently. Many distinguished guests have come here because of our reputation. Our business is booming day by day."
Lu Yundi nodded with satisfaction and asked, "Do we have enough inventory?"
The accountant replied, "Madam, we have sufficient stock. Don't worry, we will never let you down."
The shopkeeper interrupted and said, "Please feel free to choose. The materials in our shop will definitely satisfy you."
Yan Qingyu smiled gently and said, "Boss, this time we came here, in addition to selecting materials, we also have something else to ask you."
The shopkeeper was stunned and asked hurriedly, "Cousin, what can I do for you?"
Yan Qingyu said: "We would like to know if there are any new popular styles on the market recently?"
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Don't worry, the styles in our shop have always kept up with the trend. Recently, a popular style on the market is called 'Phoenix Dancing in the Sky', which is very popular among distinguished guests."
Lu Yundi and Yan Qingyu smiled at each other and said, "Then I'll have to trouble the shopkeeper to select some materials for 'Phoenix Dancing in the Nine Heavens' for us."
The shopkeeper nodded immediately and personally selected a few pieces of 'Phoenix Dancing in the Nine Heavens' material for them. Lu Yundi and Yan Qingyu nodded with satisfaction and expressed their intention to buy.
Just as the shopkeeper had packed up everything and Lu Yudi and Yan Qingyu were preparing to leave, they suddenly saw Ye Wanxue walking in slowly with a maid.
In the ancient Su Ji Silk Shop, the gorgeous curtains swayed gently and the fragrance was lingering. Lu Yundi and Yan Qingyu were about to leave when they saw Ye Wanxue walking in with a maid. She was wearing a lavender silk dress, with a smile on her face, like a peach blossom in spring, delicate and charming.
Lu Yundi frowned slightly and thought to himself: "Ye Wanxue is Jiang Jilian's mistress. Does she come here today for any purpose?" Yan Qingyu also felt that something was wrong, but still remained calm.
Ye Wanxue walked in, glanced at the two of them, and smiled softly: "You two sisters are really in a good mood, choosing goods in this Su Ji Silk Shop. Please don't blame me for being so presumptuous."
Lu Yundi said coldly: "Sister Ye, you are joking. We are just strolling around. Since you are here, let's choose together."
Ye Wanxue smiled slightly, turned to the shopkeeper and said, "Shopkeeper, I heard that you have some new Shu embroidery. May I see it?"
Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper immediately asked someone to take out a piece of Shu embroidery. Ye Wanxue picked up the embroidery and looked at it carefully, exclaiming in admiration from time to time. Lu Yundi and Yan Qingyu stood aside and exchanged glances with each other.
"Sister, the craftsmanship of this Shu embroidery is so exquisite. I want to buy one as a gift for my husband. I wonder if the shopkeeper can give me a discount?" Ye Wanxue asked.
The shopkeeper's face was full of smiles: "Don't worry, Miss Ye, since you are Mr. Jiang's concubine, we will naturally give you the best price."
Ye Wanxue smiled slightly, took out a silver note from her sleeve and handed it to the shopkeeper: "Then I'll have to trouble you to wrap it up for me."
At this moment, Lu Yundi suddenly said, "Sister, although this Shu embroidery is beautiful, do you feel that something is missing?"
Ye Wanxue was stunned, put down the Shu embroidery in her hand, and looked at Lu Yundi in confusion: "Why do you say that, sister?"
Lu Yundi smiled softly: "Although this Shu embroidery is beautiful, it seems a bit monotonous without a pair of exquisite couplets to match it."
Yan Qingyu said, "Sister, what my sister said is right. I happen to have a couplet here, which was written by a famous calligrapher. Would you like to see it?"
A hint of curiosity flashed in Ye Wanxue's eyes, and she smiled and said, "Since the two sisters are so enthusiastic, I am naturally willing to meet them."
Lu Yundi and Yan Qingyu smiled at each other, and Yan Qingyu took out a couplet from his sleeve and handed it to Ye Wanxue. Ye Wanxue unfolded the couplet and saw that it read:
"Shu embroidery is like a painting, beautiful beyond measure; couplets are like poetry, full of charm."
A hint of surprise flashed across Ye Wanxue's eyes, and then she smiled and said, "You two sisters are truly talented and beautiful. This couplet is worthy of this Shu embroidery. I am very grateful."
Lu Yundi smiled softly: "Sister, you are too kind. This couplet is just something we made casually. If you like it, you can take it."
Ye Wanxue was full of gratitude and was about to thank him when she heard footsteps outside the door. Everyone looked up and saw Jiang Jilian walking in with several followers.
When Jiang Jilian saw Ye Wanxue, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he smiled and said, "It turns out that Xiaoxue is here. It just so happens that I am here to buy some silk. Why don't we go together?"
Ye Wanxue smiled slightly, turned around and said to Lu Yundi and Yan Qingyu: "My two sisters, since my husband is here, I will take my leave first. Please leave this couplet to me, and I will come to thank you in person in the future."
