Chu Zheng washed and dressed under the careful and subtle service from Lu Zhu.
At first glance, the original owner looked gentle. In addition, she was still young. At this time, Chu Zheng put a cold face, which made people feel that she was pretending to be cold.
This face…
Chu Zheng and stared at the person in the bronze mirror.
It affects her noble, cold, and glamorous image too much.
How come it look like this!
Chu Zheng pulled down the accessories on the table, took off the excessive hair ornaments on her head, and picked a hairpin to put it on.
Simple hair accessories can bring out her cold points.
[Main task: Please spend 50 taels of silver in one hour.]
Slap!
The little girl in front of the bronze mirror suddenly slapped the dressing table, and the bronze mirror shook.
Good… It hurts!!!
“Little… Miss.” Lu Zhu was frozen in place, and the caution in her eyes was about to overflow.
The little girl calmly withdrew her hand and motioned Lu Zhu to bring her coat.
Lu Zhu swallowed her saliva.
She really felt that the young lady was completely different.
In the past, the young lady was always warm and soft. At this time, there was no expression on her face, which made her look scary.
In the past, the young lady’s gestures used to be gentle.
But now, there was a sense of dignity and sharpness from the young lady
The kind of heroism that she had seen in some aristocratic young masters.
No.
The young lady was more magnanimous than those aristocratic sons.
The clothes of this era were layered one after another, with wide sleeves, and the skirt trailed exaggeratedly on the ground.
Chu Zheng waved her sleeve and motioned Lu Zhu to go out.
It’s like dancing… With such a long skirt and sleeves, won’t you trip when you walk?
“Miss…”
Lu Zhu stepped into the threshold. Chu Zheng just waved her sleeves and grabbed the it expressionlessly. She quickly gathered the sleeves and resumed the elegant and indifferent attitude.
Lu Zhu looked puzzled.
Is… Is her lady okay?!
Why do you think that she’s strange?
Lu Zhu walked slowly: “Miss, are you sad?”
“No.” What am I sad about? Nonsense!
“Miss…” Lu Zhu didn’t believe it at all. The young lady must be sad.
She racked her brains for a moment and suddenly her eyes lit up: “Miss, why don’t we go to find Young Master Ye? He… He has an engagement with you. As long as he enters the palace and explains to His Majesty, you don’t have to enter the palace.”
What about that playboy Ye Gongzi*. (TN: Gongzi = Young master)
No, don’t want!
I’m going to go out and be a prodigal!
Chu Zheng walked out with her hands behind her back.
Lu Zhu thought that Chu Zheng heard it and hurriedly followed: “Miss, you can’t walk like this.”
Chu Zheng: “…” I have to even worry about walking. I want to do this. What’s the matter!
Chu -veteran cadre- Zheng walked out of the door with her hands behind her back.
Lu Zhu nervously reminded her, Chu Zheng turned her head and expressionlessly threatened: “If you talk again, don’t follow me.”
Lu Zhu took a breath. Her reddish eyes were pitiful, but she didn’t dare to say anything again. She was afraid that Chu Zheng wouldn’t let her follow.
She was just a servant girl. If the master didn’t let her follow, she has to stay.
Prince Cheng’s residence was a gift from the former emperor and was located in the golden area of the imperial capital.
It could be seen that King Cheng was valued by the previous emperor.
Of course, that was a past glory.
Now the former emperor and King Cheng had already passed away.
King Cheng has no relatives by his side, and the children and widow that he left behind were now thorn in other people’s eyes.
Chu Zheng could only sigh and thought that she’s very pitiful.
There was a strange and absurd emperor who didn’t play cards according to common sense.
There were also stepmother and stepsister at home.
Outside, there were also people who had been offended by King Cheng and were ready to step on at any time.
So poor, I’m right.
Hug myself.
So how do I spend these fifty taels?
The original owner would usually receive 20 taels of silver in three months…
But the original owner couldn’t spend more than 20 taels in three months. Now it’s doubled. How do you spend it!?
So sad.
The street where Chu Zheng was located was the most prosperous in the imperial capital.
Crowd of people, shouting vendors, bargaining women, shouting children, and luxury carriages were passing through the street occasionally.
Chu Zheng walked into a shop that looked very luxurious.
When she went in, she found that it was a clothing store.
“Girl, welcome.” A beautifully dressed woman greeted her.
Chu Zheng looked around coldly.
The woman covered her mouth with a fan and smiled, “This is your first time here, isn’t it? Our Xiujinfang usually doesn’t greet individual guests, but today is not busy. You can have a look.”
Lu Zhu’s little face wrinkled.
Although the woman was smiling, her tone was rather strange.
It’s like saying that her young lady couldn’t afford it.
Chu Zheng didn’t care much about the woman’s attitude: “Very expensive?”
“That’s natural.” The woman shook her fan and looked a little proud.
Very expensive!
Good!
Very nice!
Chu Zheng walked inside in a good mood.
Xiujinfang building was filled with exquisite clothes that were hung on racks in the middle, with men’s and women’s styles on both sides.
There were also many girls upstairs. At this time, the place was very lively.
“Girl, it’s a coincidence today. Our shopkeeper is designing the clothes himself. Why don’t you go up and have a look?”
The woman’s words were not wrong. Every word was respectful, but her attitude and behavior did not mean that.
Chu Zheng casually picked up a dress: “How much is it?”
“Twenty taels.” The woman said, “These are from last year, so the price is lower. The girl may not be able to wear them.”
The people that came to their workshop usually ordered a custom-made dress.
Who would buy these?
The real good clothes were upstairs. These clothes were hung here to deal with the guests who didn’t know the rules and came in.
Chu Zheng gestured for Lu Zhu to take the clothes, and then chose another set for thirty-two taels.
“Checkout.”
“Miss!” Lu Zhu exclaimed in surprise. The young lady couldn’t wear these clothes at all.
Chu Zheng threatened Lu Zhu with her eyes.
Lu Zhu hugged her clothes. She was anxious and aggrieved.
Although she was also angry that the woman looked down on the young lady, she couldn’t spend her money like this.
Since the death of the prince, they have never received any money from the princess. There were many places that need money in the future.
The woman’s expression was a little strange, but Chu Zheng was willing to buy it. She asked the waiter to come and settle the bill.
[Congratulations to little sister for completing the task. Fifty taels reward has arrived.]
[Main task: Please buy this embroidery workshop.]
As soon as Chu Zheng finished paying, Wangzhe told her that the task was completed and sent her another task.
[Little sister, how can they look down on us! We have plenty of money! Buy! We have to buy!]
Chu Zheng: “…” No, I don’t want to!
[No, you want to!]
Chu Zheng: “…”
Damn thing!
Chu Zheng took a deep breath.
Took a deep breath
Took another deep breath.
“I want to see your manager.” I want to buy the shop!!!
