On the second day, Guan Qingyue and Ning Xianglan were going to go to the spice shop in the city to have a look. Passing by the gate of Xiyuan, a soft female voice came from the side, "Sister-in-law, are you going out?" ”

Ning Xianglan stopped, and the seven or eight maids who followed behind also stopped.

The second young grandmother was wearing a skirt embroidered with lotus flowers, a decent bun, and she looked like a virtuous woman, she came to Ning Xianglan, glanced at Guan Qingyue next to her, and said with a smile: "I heard that my mother-in-law handed over Mrs. Zhang's business to my sister-in-law, is my sister-in-law going to the spice shop?" ”

Ning Xianglan raised her head proudly, "Yes, but in the past, this business was taken care of by my younger siblings, and now that it is handed over to me, I am really a little uncomfortable." ”

"How so?" The second young grandmother looked at Guan Qingyue, "With Qingyue here, presumably Mrs. Zhang must be satisfied." ”

was suddenly named, Qingyue showed her signature smile and said: "The second young grandmother has raised the slave maid, the slave maid is a maid, born to serve the masters, where do you know how to do business." ”

The second young grandmother smiled, "Miss Qingyue is really modest, sister-in-law, it's a blessing that you can have such a maid." ”

"It's a blessing for a slave to be able to follow the grandmother." Guan Qingyue hurriedly answered.

Ning Xianglan helped the hairpin on her hair bun, revealing grace and elegance in her gestures, "If you want to talk about blessings, or younger brothers and sisters are more blessed, mother-in-law feels sorry for you and is afraid that you will work hard, so she handed over this business to me..." ”

The haze in the eyes of the second young grandmother only flashed, and she smiled: "What did my sister-in-law say, it's too late for me to be happy." ”

"That's good." Ning Xianglan looked at her proudly and passed by her.

Guan Qingyue followed her steps, and Yu Guang saw the second young grandmother standing motionless, and she was probably going to die of anger in her heart. Looking at the eldest and youngest grandmother's villainous appearance, Qingyue sighed silently in her heart, thinking about when she would be able to find a chance to get out of this place.

Qingyue followed Ning Xianglan in a sedan chair all the way to the spice shop. After getting out of the carriage, Guan Qingyue looked up at the signboard in front of her, which was inlaid with gold edges, and just by looking at the sign, you could see that the Yuan family was wealthy.

When the shopkeeper in the store saw Ning Xianglan coming, he hurriedly put down the work in his hand and bent down to greet him, "The young grandmother is here, I'm tired all the way." He shouted into the inner room: "Hurry up and serve tea to the young grandmother, ask for the most precious!" ”

Ning Xianglan leisurely looked at the furnishings and decorations of the store, and sat on the seat next to the distinguished guests waiting, "Shopkeeper, I'm here today to take a look at Mrs. Zhang's business." ”

Guan Qingyue stood behind her, observing the entire store, which is worthy of being one of the top merchants in Yecheng, the store is not only selected in the most prosperous area of the city, but the decoration inside is full of ancient charm and reveals exquisite luxury everywhere. As soon as you get started, you will be greeted by the aroma.

Many richly dressed women were in the shop selecting the spices they wanted. From the shopkeeper's mouth, I learned that this room is dedicated to buying rouge gouache, and the next few rooms are used to sell all kinds of incense and peripheral products.

That's too rich, isn't it? Guan Qingyue was almost depressed and couldn't hold back the excitement in her heart, if this is left in modern times, how many yuan will it cost!

There was some movement at the door, and after the shopkeeper said hello to Ning Xianglan, he trotted to the door to greet him, and then a woman in silk walked in, Qingyue looked at the posture, and the expensive frightening cloth on her body, presumably this is the eldest lady outside Zhang Yuanwai.

"I've been here a few times, and if I don't have any fresh tricks, I'll go to the spice shop next to it." Mrs. Zhang looked at the various spices on the counter, picking them up from time to time and smelling them.

Ning Xianglan gave Guan Qingyue who was standing behind her, Guan Qingyue came to Mrs. Zhang, nodded and smiled: "Mrs. Zhang, what kind of incense powder do you want to choose?" ”

Mrs. Zhang looked Guan Qingyue up and down and said, "Who are you?" New guys? ”

"I'm the maid next to our grandmother, you can tell me if you have any needs." Guan Qingyue put her hands respectfully in front of her, with a bright smile on her face. Sales, she understands that the needs of customers are the first place, and Qingyue has been doing sales for a few days when she was an intern in college.

"Just you?" Mrs. Zhang looked at Guan Qingyue contemptuously, "What does a little maid know?" Where's your grandmother? ”

"Mrs. Zhang." Ning Xianglan came over with a few courtesies, but her expression was very arrogant. Mrs. Zhang also gave Ning Xianglan a gift in return, and said politely: "The last time I saw you was before I got married, and now I heard that you are pregnant, congratulations." ”

"Mrs. Zhang is polite, I heard that Mrs. Zhang wants to choose a set of rouge gouache here, I don't know what kind of one you want to choose?" Ning Xianglan said coldly.

"The incense powder in your store is too ordinary, I am going to the flower viewing banquet of the concubine on the sixth day of the first month of next month, and I must choose a different set." As Mrs. Zhang spoke, her plump body walked back and forth in front of the crowd of incense powder.
