Nan Wusi had been looking for a suitable shop, so he successfully negotiated a price with the three old tailors and then signed a contract.
Nan Wusi didn't have that much cash on him, so he asked Ye Zi to go back to the General's Mansion to get the money.
However, one problem is that the shop for sale is connected to a shop for rent, while the other shop for rent is on its own.
These shops are all on the same street as Lan Yi Fang, very close to each other, so it's quite convenient to take pictures.
After acquiring the several shops, Nan Wusi began renovations, waiting for the renovations to be completed so that he could open for business immediately.
This time, the opening of the jewelry store has been delayed long enough, and Nan Wusi is getting impatient.
However, this time, Nan Wusi had spent almost all of the silver he had painstakingly saved up.
Nan Wusi couldn't help but sigh, this business of investing in beauty is truly a bottomless pit, it's so frustrating.
Soon it was time for Xiao Mu to come and try on clothes, and Nan Wusi reluctantly went to the Dream Clothes Shop.
Xiao Mu is really annoying; she doesn't want to see him at all.
Nan Wusi chose a set of royal blue Ming-style Hanfu for Xiao Mu, and then a set of dark green diagonal-front long robes. Both were quite noble and domineering styles, which were very suitable for Xiao Mu's status as the Crown Prince.
After trying on the clothes, Xiao Mu looked at his reflection in the bronze mirror and vaguely thought of Xiao Yi, whom he had won the bid for the specially made outfit that day. Even if he didn't want to admit it, the specially made Xiao Yi did look more handsome and dashing, which made Xiao Mu extremely unhappy.
"Sister Si, the effect of this regular customization seems to be quite different from that of special customization." Xiao Mu frowned, not very satisfied with the current result.
“Your Highness, the price difference between custom-made and regular custom-made items is significant, and naturally the final result will also be different,” Nan Wusi replied matter-of-factly.
"Could Sister Si make an exception for me this time?" Xiao Mu leaned closer to Nan Wusi. He believed that the reason he was not very satisfied today was that the effect of a regular custom-made product was not as good as a special custom-made one. He would never admit that it was because he was less attractive than Xiao Yi.
Seeing Xiao Mu getting closer, Nan Wusi instinctively backed away. She hated the feeling of men approaching her for no reason, except for beautiful women, of course.
"Your Highness, I am truly unable to fulfill this request. Each special order requires a long period of preparation and cannot be done casually," Nan Wusi politely declined.
However, Xiao Mu's attention was focused on the words "willing but unable," and he naturally assumed that Nan Wusi still liked him, but was unable to meet his requirements due to some objective reasons.
If Nan Wusi knew what Xiao Mu was thinking, he would definitely tell him that he was overthinking it.
Although neither outfit satisfied Xiao Mu entirely, he bought them anyway, thinking that this would lessen Nan Wusi's anger towards him. Of course, this was just his assumption.
After buying the clothes, Xiao Mu talked to Nan Wusi for a long time, which Nan Wusi responded to with great impatience.
She breathed a sigh of relief after Xiao Mu left. Fortunately, Xiao Mu didn't cause any trouble today, otherwise she wouldn't know how to deal with it.
How could she possibly get rid of Xiao Mu, this annoying troublemaker? Did she really have to marry someone? Nan Wusi was once again filled with worry.
However, after thinking about it for a long time without coming up with a solution, I finally gave up and decided to just take it one step at a time.
The capital city is now enveloped in the festive atmosphere of the upcoming Chinese New Year, and the streets and alleys are bustling with activity.
This was also Nan Wusi's first time celebrating the New Year in this world, so she was very excited. She went with the purchasing staff in the mansion to buy New Year's goods and then actively had the servants decorate the general's mansion.
Although it was just her grandmother, her second brother, and herself during the Lunar New Year, the festive atmosphere was still there.
The General's Mansion has a long tradition of sending New Year's gifts, so Nan Wusi would think about what gifts each person needed in his spare time.
On New Year's Eve, the general's family gathered together for dinner.
Nan Wusi busied herself in the kitchen, preparing a large number of delicious dishes to make the reunion dinner look even more lavish.
In previous years, Nan Wuyu had been doing these things, but this year, because Nan Wusi had taken the initiative to do them, Nan Wuyu was quite relaxed and found it rather unusual.
At the reunion dinner, the old lady took out the gifts for the two siblings. She gave Nan Wuyu a talisman to protect his official position, and Nan Wusi a talisman for marriage. Both of them were obtained by the old lady from the temple.
Nan Wusi hadn't expected that feudal superstition was so prevalent in this time and space, but since it was the old man's good intention, he accepted it with great concern.
Namo Si gave Namo Yu a collection of strange tales and anecdotes, and then gave his grandmother a down vest, which would keep the elderly warm.
Nan Wuyu, on the other hand, was much more direct, giving Nan Wusi a large purse filled with several gold ingots. He then gave his grandmother some calming incense.
The old lady was very happy all day. Although Nan Tianba and the others could not celebrate the New Year with their families, the General's Mansion was not deserted. With Nan Wuyu and Nan Wusi accompanying the old lady, there was constant laughter and joy around her.
However, due to her advanced age, the old lady became somewhat sleepy not long after finishing her dinner, so she went back to her room to rest, leaving the two siblings, Nan Wusi and Nan Wuyu, to have some fun.
However, Nan Wuyu still had a lot of official business to attend to, so after dinner he couldn't spend too much time playing with Nan Wusi and returned to his study to handle official duties. In the end, only Nan Wusi was left, and he was somewhat bored.
Just as Nan Wusi was idly sitting in his room, a dark figure suddenly darted in.
Nan Wusi immediately assumed a defensive stance, but when she saw who it was, she was somewhat surprised to find that it was Xiao Yi.
"Your Highness Prince Yi, why are you in my room today?"
"Miss Nan, would you be willing to accompany me somewhere?" Xiao Yi did not answer Nan Wusi's question, but asked in return.
Where to?
"You'll find out when you get there," Xiao Yi said, without revealing anything further.
Namo thought that staying at home would be boring, and since there were still some days until New Year's Eve, he might as well go and take a look, so he nodded in agreement.
"Stay close to me," Xiao Yi said, then climbed out of the window.
Nan Wusi also used his lightness skill to follow closely behind.
However, Nan Wusi did not expect that by following Xiao Yi all the way, she would eventually arrive at a hillside in the suburbs.
On the hillside stood a towering tree, and Xiao Yi finally stopped beneath it.
