Li Youran didn't seem to treat her as the legitimate daughter of the Minister's family, but rather as an ordinary friend.

"Miss, no, you only drink the tribute wine from Jiangnan..."

"It's alright, it doesn't matter what I drink when I'm in a good mood," Jiang Qianqian said, waving her hand.

At this moment, Li Youran was unaware that the aloof Miss Jiang had already included her in her friends' circle, and even considered her a close friend.

"Ms. Jiang, you are welcome to visit anytime."

Li Youran packed up the jewelry she had chosen and said with a smile.

Today, she really benefited from Liu Zhiyuan's generosity; the young lady of the Minister's household bought so much stuff that it equaled her weekly sales. She could earn a full six hundred taels of silver just from that diamond set alone.

"Miss Li, when you have some free time, would it be possible to go shopping for clothes and cosmetics together?"

Jiang Qianqian thought that if she had a friend like Li Youran to go shopping with, she could not only buy things she liked, but also have a good mood. So she took the initiative to extend an olive branch to Li Youran.

"Okay, I'll treat you to milk... tea and snacks then."

Li Youran originally wanted to say milk tea, but she realized halfway through and hurriedly changed her words.

Thinking about it carefully, since I came into this world, I've only bought two sets of clothes with Yunying, and I've never gone shopping with someone of the same sex.

Suddenly, Li Youran felt a sense of loneliness. Who could understand the pain of not having a best friend? It was a pity that Yun Yingying was so oblivious; otherwise, she would have been a very caring best friend.

"Alright then."

Someone in Jiang Qianqian's shop agreed, and she smiled happily.

"In a few days, we'll need to have clothes made to take measurements. Could I ask Miss Li to come to our residence and help me choose some fabrics?"

"Of course."

Seeing Jiang Qianqian's cautious demeanor, Li Youran felt sorry for the young lady from a wealthy family, who didn't even have anyone to help her choose things. So, she couldn't bear to refuse and agreed.

"Achoo, achoo, achoo~"

Yun Yingying, who was squatting in the Yunlai Inn catching her husband's mistress, suddenly sneezed three times.

Just as she was about to ask who was cursing her, a slender woman walked into the Yunlai Inn.
