Chapter 394 Who do you think you are?
"What's making you laugh so happily?" A voice broke everyone's laughter.
Su Qing looked back and saw that it was Princess Shaohua!
Everyone knelt down, "Greetings, Princess."
"Your humble servant pays respects to Princess Shaohua." Su Qing bowed slightly but did not perform any formal ceremony.
"Xiaoqing, you don't have to be so polite. Have you missed me after not seeing me for a long time?" Princess Shaohua said as she glanced around the house. "Oh my God, did thieves break into the mansion? Why is it so messy?"
Su Qing quickly explained: "No, no, I just asked them to help me find something. Come on, princess, let's go to the front hall to talk. Let them clean up here! It's a mess." Su Qing took Princess Shaohua away, leaving the people in the room looking at each other and laughing loudly again.
Su Qing and Princess Shaohua came to the front hall and sat down. Su Qing poured a cup of tea for the princess. "Princess, how come you have time to come today? I wanted to visit you a few days ago, but my aunt was poisoned, so I have been taking care of my aunt."
"What? Has the person who poisoned the food been caught?" Princess Shaohua was very surprised!
"Yeah, I caught him. It's Meng Zhiyuan."
"How could it be her?" Princess Shaohua looked incredulous.
"It's a long story, let's not talk about her. How come you have time to come here today? How are the little princess and the little prince? Are they doing well?" Su Qing asked with concern.
"Because I offended Su Wanrong, my royal brother has put me under house arrest. I have been accompanying those two little rascals recently, and I am so tired!" Princess Shaohua said as she pounded her arm.
"Ah~ I was wondering why I didn't see you at the Queen's birthday party. I wanted to go find you at the end, but a lady called me to see a doctor. Then my aunt got poisoned, so I put your case aside."
"I was thinking about it. Why didn't you, such a heartless person, come to the princess's mansion to see me? You made me look forward to it all day long." Princess Shaohua pouted and pretended to be very angry.
"I was thinking of visiting you tomorrow, but who knew you would come first. Okay, okay, my princess, please don't be angry and forgive me, okay?" Su Qing comforted Princess Shaohua.
"Alright, I'll let you go this time, but if there's a next time, I won't let you off easily, I'll definitely skin you alive and pull out your tendons!"
"What a cruel princess!" Su Qing pretended to be scared.
"By the way, there will be an important day in three days. My two lovely little babies will be a hundred days old! I have specially prepared a banquet in the princess's mansion. Look, I am here to give you the invitation in person." Princess Shaohua smiled and handed the exquisite invitation to Su Qing.
Su Qing took the post and couldn't help but sigh: "Time flies! The Hundred Days Banquet will be held so soon?"
Princess Shaohua nodded slightly and said with a smile: "That's right! I was even grounded for a month!" There was a hint of helplessness in her tone.
Su Qing also laughed: "Yes, it's already late autumn. The seasons change and time flies." She seemed to have thought of something again, frowned and muttered to herself: "Alas, my embroidery skills are really not good enough. What gifts should I prepare for the children? I have to think about it carefully."
Princess Shaohua waved her hands and said, "It's good that you're here. Don't spend money on buying anything. If you want to thank someone, I should be the one thanking you."
"It's just a trivial matter, not worth mentioning. Princess, please stop talking about it all the time, no one is listening!" Su Qing felt a little embarrassed.
Princess Shaohua looked at Su Qing gratefully and said, "When the children grow up, I will make sure they remember your kindness and buy you lots of good things."
"Then it's settled."
"Okay, I'm going back. If they don't see me for a while, the two children will start crying." Princess Shaohua said as she stood up and walked out in a hurry.
Su Qing bowed slightly and said, "Farewell, Princess." As soon as she finished speaking, the princess disappeared! Su Qing couldn't help but shake her head. It seemed that her two children were still easy to take care of. She didn't need to worry about them at all.
Su Qing thought about it and walked back to Yilan Courtyard. At this time, they had already packed up everything!
"Let me ask you, what should I give to the princess' two children for their hundred-day celebrations?"
Several people shook their heads, indicating that they were not sure.
"Forget it, Ruxue, Rumei, come with me for a while and see what to buy!"
"Madam, there are quite a few things in the warehouse. Why don't you pick a few items from the warehouse?" Wu Yanran suddenly said.
"Most of them were gifts from the Emperor. Princess Shaohua has everything in the palace. Why should I bother myself? It's obvious that they are not given sincerely."
"Then I'll go with you." Wu Yanran wanted to follow.
"I want to go with you too." Shui Lian also wanted to go.
"Take me with you, ma'am." Ling'er wanted to go even more.
"Let's go, let's go together, more people, more suggestions."
The group came to the largest and most luxurious jewelry store in Shangjing City. It has six floors and is full of dazzling goods. Willows are swaying, colorful flags are fluttering, and gems are embellished. It looks magnificent and noble. The shelves are filled with various exquisite items such as silk, wine vessels, porcelain, etc., shining with gold and silver. It is said that if you can't choose here, you can't choose anywhere else.
The decoration of the shop is unique, ingeniously using ancient architectural elements such as mahogany furniture, carved doors and windows, and retro lamps. Traditional calligraphy and paintings and antique ornaments are hung on the walls, showing the owner's cultural heritage and unique taste.
Customers came in and out of the store one after another. Some carefully selected items from the shelves, while others chatted with the shopkeeper. The store was bustling with activity.
The accountant stood behind the counter, holding an abacus, calculating the bills for the customers attentively, with a smile on his face, looking friendly and amiable.
Su Qing thought, how nice it would be if she could open a store like this.
A few people came to the gold jewelry area, and Su Qing immediately fell in love with a pair of gold locks. "Boss, take out this pair of gold locks for me to see."
The shopkeeper came over and said, "Madam, you have good eyesight. This pair of golden locks has a great origin. It is said that putting them on children will keep them safe."
"Please pack up the pair of golden locks in her hand for me!" a sharp female voice rang out.
Su Qing looked back and saw a woman in gorgeous clothes, accompanied by a group of maids. She must be from a wealthy family.
“This…” The shopkeeper was a little embarrassed.
Su Qing had already chosen to buy it, so she asked the shopkeeper, "How much is this pair of gold locks? I want it." Then she said to the woman, "Sorry, I liked this one first, please go and look at something else!"
"What? Haha... I'm not kidding, am I? You were the first to take a fancy to it? You really don't know how high the heavens are and how deep the earth is. Who do you think you are?" The woman turned to the shopkeeper and said, "Why don't you seal it up for me? I think your shop doesn't need to be open in Shangjing City!"
