The embroidery lady was determined to do this business!
Seeing Ji Yunshu's hesitation, the embroidery lady touched the small samples and introduced them to her one by one.
"This is … that is …"
What he said was' vivid and lifelike '.
Ji Yunshu listened attentively.
It was as if she was a servant of the Jiang Estate and had come to place an order on behalf of her mistress.
After the embroidery lady finished, she asked, "If Miss still can't make a decision, how about we send someone to your estate and personally talk to your mistress?"
Ji Yunshu let out a long sigh and pretended to be in a dilemma. "That's not appropriate."
"Then, Miss can choose whatever you like."
"Then …" She pointed at a piece of green cloth. "This!"
"Okay! Is there more? "
"This!"
"Okay, is there more?"
"And this, and this …"
Ji Yunshu couldn't hold back and asked for more.
The embroidery lady was overjoyed.
After all, the more she sold, the more commission she would get!
"Miss is really generous. Your mistress is fortunate to have you by her side." The embroidery lady was full of smiles as she took the list and prepared to pick up the goods.
Who knew …
Ji Yunshu stopped her, "Wait, I haven't picked yet!"
What?
The embroidery lady's cheeks twitched and her smile stiffened. She raised the list in her hand and asked, "Didn't you pick just now?"
Ji Yunshu smiled embarrassedly, "I don't want the things I mentioned just now!"
Pfft!
The embroidery lady's face darkened and the corners of her mouth twitched. "Miss, are you playing with me?"
"How could I?"
"Then I think you're deliberately looking for trouble!" The embroidery lady fiercely threw the list on the table. She raised her eyebrows and glared at Ji Yunshu as if she was going to fight.
Ji Yunshu said, "It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding! I'm a proper customer, not a scoundrel. "
"Miss, you look delicate and pretty, but I didn't expect you to have such a bad heart and come here to behave atrociously!"
"It's really a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding …"
"My Exquisite Embroidery Manor is very famous in the capital. Where did you come from, wild girl?"
"…" Ji Yunshu didn't get angry.
The commotion was loud and attracted the attention of the people in the embroidery manor.
There were also people around who started pointing and gossiping.
Ji Yunshu really felt that she was innocent.
Just then —
"What's wrong?" A female voice came from the crowd.
Hearing the sound, he saw a woman in red walking out from the door on the left, twisting her waist. She was dressed very well, was about thirty years old, and had a shrewd look on her face.
The angry embroiderer hurried over and whispered into the woman's ear.
After listening to the whole story, the woman looked Ji Yunshu up and down.
"Who are you? Why did you come here to cause trouble? "
Ji Yunshu bowed slightly. "May I know who this is?"
The woman said, "I'm in charge here. If you have anything to say, you can tell me, but don't cause trouble here."
With a warning tone.
Ji Yunshu met her gaze. "I won't hide it from you, Miss. I did come here because I have something to attend to."
Hmm?
The woman looked at her more carefully. Who was this woman? How come she had never seen it before?
But —
In the end, he still led Ji Yunshu to the back room.
"Tell me, who are you? What are you doing here? If you can't tell me, I'll report you to the authorities and charge you with causing trouble. "
From the moment Ji Yunshu entered the room, her originally polite demeanor immediately disappeared, replaced by an indifferent expression.
She turned around and looked at the woman sternly. "Listen carefully. You will answer whatever I ask you!"
Huh?
The woman was startled. "You are?"
… …
At the gates of the capital.
A horse carriage slowly drove in. After being inspected by the guards at the gates, it entered the capital.
Ji Wanxin sat inside, her eyes dark. Her slender hands clutched her handkerchief and rested it on her lap. The feebleness on her face hadn't faded. As the carriage entered the capital, she seemed to feel unwell and coughed a few times.
The maidservant beside her quickly poured her a glass of water. "Miss, drink some water. It's been a long journey, don't tire yourself out."
She pushed the glass of water away. "I'm fine!"
Her voice was extremely soft and weak.
"Then, Miss, are we going to the palace directly? Or … "Back to the General's Estate?
She was silent for a moment.
"Let's go back."
"Alright."
The maidservant spoke to the coachman outside. The coachman answered, raised the whip in his hand, and went back to the General's Estate.
Ji Wanxin frowned, coughing incessantly. She refused the water the maidservant gave her, refused the medicine she was given, and refused to swallow anything. Thus, she ate very little on the journey. Coupled with the fact that they had been hurrying, her already weak body worsened, and she felt weak all over.
The noise outside grew louder and louder. She couldn't help but lift the curtains and look outside.
It's been almost a year!
A year ago, when she left the capital, it was still windy. Now that she returned, the snow was gone, and the wind had stopped. The capital was still bustling, and the streets were bustling with people. The Great Lin's' charm 'and prosperity could be seen everywhere. No matter how much time had passed, the Great Lin was still the same, and the capital was still the same, but the Ji family of the past no longer existed. What War Secretary Ji? What General Ji? What Prince Yi's Consort?
？ Everything had become a fleeting cloud.
She sighed softly. Just as she was about to withdraw her gaze, she suddenly saw a figure on the street that she couldn't be more familiar with.
That person came out of a shop. She wore a simple yet elegant dress, and her features were delicate and pretty. Her eyes revealed a touch of indifference, but that one glance was enough to leave an unforgettable impression.
She didn't expect to meet Ji Yunshu on her first day in the capital!
The Ji family's sinner!
"Stop!" She shouted.
Although her voice was soft, the coachman heard her and pulled the reins to stop the horse.
The maidservant was puzzled. "Miss, what are you doing?"
She withdrew her gaze from the outside. Her originally frail face now had a trace of malevolence, and her bottomless eyes were also flowing with hatred.
But …
When she alighted from the carriage, there was not the slightest trace of malevolence or hatred on her face.
She was still that weak and sickly beauty, Ji Wanxin!
As soon as Ji Yunshu came out of Exquisite Garments, she saw a carriage coming in her direction and finally stopping in front of her.
She muttered inwardly, thinking that it was probably a rich family that came here to pick cloth. However, the carriage was very ordinary, and it didn't seem like it was a noble who came to sell things. She was puzzled and was about to go around when she saw Ji Wanxin getting off the carriage.
At that moment, Ji Yunshu was shocked!
