“Did the horse-faced skirt originate from your shop?” “More or less,” Nanny Jin replied confidently.
“Do you have those shiny hair accessories?”
Upon hearing this, Jin Mama understood. “You’re from the capital, right?” “Yes, I have relatives in the capital. I’m staying there temporarily.” “A few years ago, our family stopped selling those.”
“That’s a pity. I was thinking of buying a couple of pieces to take back.”
“I’m sorry.”
The elegantly dressed lady walked over to Yue Hong, who was busy with her embroidery, and reached for the embroidery thread beside her.
“Your embroidery thread is unique, with bright colors and a variety of types.”
“We get these from our supplier.”
“From overseas?”
“It seems so.”
Nanny Jin noticed her inquisitiveness. She realized this visitor had a specific purpose in coming to their shop.
“Can I meet your mistress?”
“That’s not something we can decide. I’ll have to ask.”
“In that case, send someone to inquire. I’ll wait here.”
The elegantly dressed lady calmly sat down, with her maid standing respectfully behind her, fanning her with a fan.
Helpless, Nanny Jin signaled Yue Xia and hurried back to Lucky Garden. “Mistress, there’s a beautiful and noble lady in the shop who wants to meet you.”
“I won’t see her.”
Qiao Mai rejected without even looking up. Yue Xia opened her mouth but closed it, about to turn away.
“Ask her to come to the house.”
“Yes, Mistress.”
Yue Xia couldn’t quite describe the impression she got from the elegantly dressed lady. It left her feeling somewhat uneasy, but she believed that such people were the ones the Mistress should handle.
When the lady heard that the Mistress wanted to see her at her house, she left the embroidery shop, returned to her carriage, and arrived at Lucky Garden’s gate.
With the main gate open, she and her entourage entered the compound. They were impressed by the clean and elegant mansion. The elegantly dressed lady nodded in satisfaction.
The maid led them into the living room and served tea before leaving.Please visit 𝓃𝑜vel-𝒏𝑒xt.𝒸𝑜𝔪 website to read fastest update
It took a while, but Qiao Mai finally came from the backyard. When she saw the lady in the elegant dress, she didn’t show any surprise.
“What business do you have with me?”
The elegantly dressed lady smiled and introduced herself, “My name is Mu
Xuehua. I’m a noblewoman from the capital.’
“I haven’t heard of you. Just tell me why you’re looking for me.”
“I’ve heard your name for a long time and wanted to make your acquaintance.”
“He got injured, but it’s not serious. He’ll return to the capital after a few more days of rest.”
“You came to make friends with Madam Qiao?”
“Yes, but she’s not interested.”
“Don’t push her. Everything is a matter of fate.”
“I understand, Lady Pang. I never thought I’d meet you here.”
“You’re a good child.”
Old Mistress Wang was fond of Minghua. Despite her status as a noble lady, she had no airs, which was regrettable. If they had met earlier, they wouldn’t have had this unpleasant confrontation.
“Since Sister Qiao doesn’t welcome me, I’ll leave.”
“Shall I have her send you some special products from our home?”
“That would be great.”
The old lady arranged for her to receive a carriage full of fine products.
Feeling somewhat puzzled, she found her way to the backyard. “Is it because of
Jiaru’s situation that you refuse to make friends?”
Qiao Mai shook her head. “Grandmother, what are you thinking? A stranger suddenly tells you, ‘I want to live at your house, and I want to be friends with you,’ and I should accept? Do I look that foolish?”
Hearing this, Old Mistress Wang couldn’t help but laugh.
“County Princess Minghua is indeed a good child. Despite her high status, she doesn’t act pretentious and is straightforward.”
“Jiaru was the same back then.”
“She’s different. She was spoiled by us while Ming Hua wasn’t.”
“However you put it, I don’t want to make friends anymore. I have many things to handle at home, not to mention the mess Yuan Jiaqi created for me. I can’t afford to befriend her.”
“Is the workshop in County She under construction?”
“Yes. When the workshop opens, I’ll visit regularly and select some trustworthy people to manage it.”
“Understood. You can keep busy. If that girl comes back, don’t drive her away like that.”
“She shouldn’t act so foolishly. If she were smart and approached my daughter to befriend her, I wouldn’t object.”
“Haha, you…”
And that was the end of this episode. That evening, when Nanny Jin had free time, she sought out Qiao Mai.
“Many people have been asking if we sell our embroidery thread.”
“We don’t sell it. We only provide work for our subcontractors. If anyone dares to cheat us by switching the embroidery thread, we won’t give them work anymore.”
“Why is that?”
“In the Ming Dynasty, tea, salt, fabric, and even thread were monopolized by major merchants. If we were to sell our thread, it would be like taking a piece of meat from someone else’s plate. Although I’m not afraid of them, I don’t want to deal with the trouble. There’s never enough money to earn. Living peacefully is the main thing.”
“I understand. I underestimated the situation.”
“That shop is just for Ling’er to practice. You can play with it, but we’re not looking for trouble.”
“Yes, Mistress..”
