Chapter 1316: Tooth for Tooth

Just a quick glance.

But Cheng Fengyao still saw Huo Changhe's profile.

It was gone in a flash.

Her mind went blank and she stood up subconsciously.

When I looked more closely, the old woman had already gone out and closed the door.

Cheng Fengyao was anxious and angry. She quickly tidied her hair and clothes, took a few deep breaths, and came to open the door.

But when she opened the door, Huo Changhe was no longer in the corridor.

Cheng Fengyao stood at the door and looked around. From time to time, other people passed by in the corridor, mostly men, and their eyes were always glancing at her.

She was so embarrassed and angry that she had to close the door.

I sat alone and felt angry for a while, then I calmed down a little and felt a little happy.

When she bought the jewelry, she was thinking that she would definitely meet that man again, and then she would dress up beautifully and exquisitely so that the man would fall in love with her at first sight.

When she brought the jewelry back, her father scolded her and asked her to return it.

Can I return the jewelry I bought from the Jewelry Pavilion?

Not to mention that there has never been a precedent of returns in the store, even if there was, she couldn't go and return it.

It was such a grand scene during the bidding, and so many people saw it, but you backed out in the blink of an eye. Do you still have any dignity left?

The only way out is to go to a pawn shop.

Most small pawnshops don’t have that much financial resources and can’t come up with that much cash at once. I tried two before finally finding the big pawnshop.

She couldn't express how heartbroken she was at that time. She was heartbroken not only for the lost money, but also for her marriage.

But in the blink of an eye, I saw the man again in the restaurant.

God knows, God knows, ever since she saw him in the dim sum shop that day, she has been haunted by him!

The gods were indeed effective. They knew that she had lost her jewelry and was feeling uneasy, so they let them meet again just to reassure her!

Don’t worry, don’t worry, God has his own arrangements, and we will definitely meet again.

Just as she was thinking about it, the waiter knocked on the door and asked her if she wanted to order food.

She suddenly had an idea and not only ordered some dishes, she also gave the waiter some change as a reward.

"Waiter, let me ask you, is there a distinguished guest in the private room on the second floor? A young man with a handsome appearance and a heroic figure?"

She pondered, "Wearing a blue robe and a white jade hair crown, is there any?"

When the waiter heard this, he was surprised. Isn't this referring to the Prince of Zhennan?

The prince is dressed like this today.

But the waiter didn't dare to say anything, and smiled politely: "The private rooms on the second floor are all occupied by distinguished guests. Today, the private rooms are full. Except for your room, all the rooms have young men with extraordinary looks."

"As for the dress you mentioned, I haven't really paid attention to it, but I can keep an eye out for you."

Cheng Fengyao was inevitably disappointed, but she was not without hope: "Okay, then I'll trouble you."

She spoke politely, but her eyes flashed with contempt.

The waiter was very tactful and had seen all kinds of guests. He saw her look, smiled slightly, nodded and left.

As soon as he went out, he immediately turned around to see the shopkeeper.

Huo Changhe and Yan Ruyu came in a horse-drawn carriage, driven by Beibei and Linlang. They were downstairs and asked for a small table by the window.

Huo Changhe poured fruit wine for Yan Ruyu, told her the dishes he ordered, and wanted to find an excuse to go downstairs to call Beibei.

Before he could say anything, the shopkeeper knocked on the door.

After a few polite words, the shopkeeper changed the subject.

"Your Highness, Princess, this is what happened. A young lady in the private room just now asked the waiter about someone. According to her description, she should be referring to Your Highness."

Yan Ruyu was startled and subconsciously thought of Mu Baodi. Then she felt something was wrong. Mu Baodi should still be lying on the bed.

Huo Changhe's face became even gloomier. It was such a bummer. He had finally gotten over the matter of Mu Baodi, but here came another bummer.

However, he did not think about it in other ways. He just thought that Cheng Fengyao saw him and thought that he had heard what he had instructed the maid.

Huo Changhe thought for a moment and said, "Don't pay attention to her. I'll take care of this matter later."

The shopkeeper nodded: "Yes."

"Go to the first floor and call my follower. I have something to tell him."

The shopkeeper hurried downstairs to call Beibei.

Yan Ruyu saw that Huo Changhe's face looked strange, and combined with what the shopkeeper had just said, she realized that something had happened.

"What's wrong?" Yan Ruyu asked.

Huo Changhe did not hide it any more and sighed: "I originally wanted to do it quietly, but I didn't expect the shopkeeper to come to me."

Beibei knocked on the door, and Huo Changhe answered and let him in.

It was a good opportunity to tell Yan Ruyu what had happened.

Yan Ruyu was not surprised at all: "Cheng family, can't you do something to impress me instead of doing these expected tricks."

Beibei rubbed his hands and said, "Your Majesty, please tell me what I should do."

Huo Changhe sneered: "Since she is playing dirty tricks, I will fight back."

He whispered a few words, and Beibei's eyes gradually brightened: "Don't worry, my lord and princess, I will definitely get it done."

Beibei left and the waiter came to serve the food.

Huo Changhe personally served Yan Ruyu the dishes: "Eat, don't pay attention to them, eat and then watch the show."

"Okay," Yan Ruyu didn't take it to heart, "After dinner and the show, let's go to the Mu family and meet Mu Baodi."

"it is good."

The two of them ate happily, and the little quarrels in the Cheng family did not cause any waves in their eyes.

The Prince of Zhennan's Mansion is like the ocean, and the Cheng family is just a small fish and shrimp that cannot cause any waves. But if a wave comes from the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion, the Cheng family will be unable to withstand it.

Completely different from the vigorous atmosphere when bidding for jewelry, the Cheng Mansion was shrouded in a dark cloud at this moment.

The Cheng family's cloth shop originally had a good business, but since the Qian family's cloth shop opened, their business has been going from bad to worse.

Originally it was a big gamble before the New Year, thinking that business would be good after the New Year, so I bought a lot of cloth at once. Who would have thought that Qian's Cloth Shop not only had new cloth samples, but also beautiful ready-made clothes for sale.

They had never seen those styles of clothes before. They were warm and good-looking, and they became the new favorite in the city.

The biggest fear in cloth shop business is overstocking. If the old goods cannot be sold and the money cannot be recovered, new goods cannot be put on the shelves. Without new goods, the old goods will be even harder to sell, which creates a vicious cycle.

Fortunately, the winter in Youcheng is long and spring comes late, otherwise, the backlog before the New Year and the lack of money to buy spring cloth would be enough to kill it.

He finally managed to raise some money, and scraped it together by selling some old goods at a loss, some grain from the farm, and a few antique paintings and calligraphy. He finally managed to get together more than 10,000 taels of silver. But before he got to the cloth shop, the mother and daughter bought jewelry for him.

Mr. Cheng was so furious that he scolded the mother and daughter. It was the first time that Mrs. Cheng was slapped in the face and her face is still a little swollen.

Mrs. Cheng was regretful in her heart, but she could only admit that going to the pawnshop was too shameful and she could not go, so she asked her capable maid to accompany her daughter.

As she was waiting, she heard footsteps in the yard and thought it was her daughter coming back, but it turned out to be the woman who was in charge of the front yard and also her right-hand man.

"Ma'am, it's not good!"
