The shopkeeper said angrily, "Miss Xiao, I, Wanluolou, do business, always every penny, and you are free from money. You have to force me to sell you eighty taels of silver clothes and sixty taels. I wish I could not do it."

"Haha, if you can't afford clothes, don't buy them. You are forcing others to lower the price here, who are you?"

"Shh, stop talking, haven't you heard that General Xiao is coming back."

"Haha, no wonder Miss Xiao is so arrogant. It turns out that General Xiao is coming back. This time General Xiao has made great contributions, so the Xiao family will get a lot of rewards again."

"That's all earned by others on their own terms, and we can't even get jealous of it."

"Okay, stop talking. Now the Xiao family is proud, and she heard that you will cry if you put on your shoes another day."

Several women in the room whispered and talked about the Xiao family.

Nian Ruyi looked at the girl in surprise. After learning that she was the daughter of her cousin's immediate superior, Nian Ruyi did not compete with her for clothes. She pointed to another skirt with light yellow cesium embroidered with two big peonies, and a green one next to her, and said to the shopkeeper, "Give me this yellow cesium and that green one, how much is the total silver for these two pieces?"

In ancient times, when I bought clothes, I had no place to try, so I had to take them home first. If they were too big and too small, Luanfeng would help her to change them.

The shopkeeper smiled, "Two pieces cost 128 taels of silver in total."

"Okay, please wrap it up for me."

Nian Ruyi did not lower the price. She knew that the shopkeeper was afraid of the power of the Yuan Palace and would not talk about the price too much.

However, when Nian Ruyi took out the silver notes, the shopkeeper did not dare to accept them. "Miss Nian, I have to give this money to me, so there is no need for Nian to give it to me."

"Girl, this store belongs to the eldest son."

After leaving the store, Luanfeng suddenly told her in a low voice.

Nian Ruyi blinked, then showed a clear expression, "No wonder this shopkeeper always looks respectful and dare not offend you every time he sees you."

Love, this is Yuanlie’s store.

Luanfeng whispered, "This shop is the princess's dowry. When the eldest son was just over the month, the princess gave it to the eldest son, recorded it in the eldest son's name, and handed it over to Madam Bai for care."

"The princess is better than Lu Baoyi's two sons. I didn't expect that she had loved Yuan Lie before." A hint of mockery appeared on Nian Ruyi's face.

"This... I don't know either. However, I heard from Madam Bai that when the eldest young master was born, the princess loved the eldest young master very much. When the eldest young master was born, the princess had to take care of the eldest young master's food, drink, defecation, and sleep. But later..."

This is not a good place to talk. Nian Ruyi waved her hand before she finished speaking and signaled her not to say anything, "There is a teahouse in front of you, let's go there to rest."

"That is the prince's teahouse." Luanfeng said.

Nian Ruyi took a closer look and realized that it was the teahouse she visited on the night of the Lantern Festival.

She said, "Let's go to Yuan Jinhong's private room to rest."

Of course Nian Ruyi was not tired, and she didn't really have to rest. When she arrived at the private room and the servant brought the refreshments, she closed the private room and asked Luanfeng about Princess Yuan.

Luanfeng smiled bitterly, "Miss, I don't know much about Princess Yuan, and Madam Bai knows a lot. When the day of the peach blossom banquet, I will find some time to let Madam Bai see you."

"Bai Yan's biological mother?"
