Shen Qingyu turned slightly to the side: "Going shopping? Let's go."
Shen Qingyao immediately noticed the Qinghui silk and two bolts of silk in Shen Qingyu's hand.
Qinghui silk is a semi-transparent white color. It is not only light and comfortable to wear, but its thin and transparent texture is also particularly alluring.
The concubines in the household possess various seductive tricks; if only I had this nightgown made of Qinghui silk…
Are you still afraid of losing this heartless man?
Shen Qingyao's eyes immediately lit up with passion.
"Shopkeeper, do you still have any silk or satin?"
The shopkeeper looked troubled: "Second Young Madam, the Qinghui silk and Tianqing silk have just been sold out, and we have no more stock."
That's all?
Shen Qingyao's expression changed, and she looked at Shen Qingyu and laughed.
"Sister, this fabric is too expensive. You work hard to earn money, so why don't you just let me have it?"
Shen Qingyu looked completely innocent and pointed at Xiao Yunqi: "I didn't buy it... he bought it."
Shen Qingyao looked at Xiao Yunqi, who was expressionless to the side.
Xiao Yunqi was dressed in a dark blue short-sleeved cloth shirt, and looked like an ordinary country man.
"Brother-in-law, I've taken a liking to these Qinghui silk and Tianqing silk. Could you ask my sister to let me have them?" Shen Qingyao asked Xiao Yunqi with a charming smile.
Xiao Yunqi said coldly, "No."
“But look at my sister, with such a figure… I don’t mean anything by it, I just feel that this fabric is a bit of a waste to give her…”
Shen Qingyao deliberately hesitated, and even slightly twisted her body.
Xiao Yunqi turned to Shen Qingyu: "Are you leaving or not?"
Shen Qingyu nodded hurriedly: "Let's go!"
Shen Qingyao was dumbfounded.
How dare this poor couple ignore my existence?
What gives them the right?
Anger welled up inside her, and Shen Qingyao grabbed Shen Qingyu: "Big sister! You..."
Shen Qingyu frowned, looking at her clothes that were being pulled, and said in a cold tone, "What? Are you going to make a move?"
Shen Qingyao hesitated for a moment, unwilling to let go: "That's not what I meant. If you're willing to part with it, I'm willing to pay double the price for this material."
Shen Qingyu raised an eyebrow: "Double the price? Are you sure?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Qingyao breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Qi Zhouhua, who had been silent all along, "Husband, I really like these bolts of fabric. Can you buy them for me?"
Not wanting to lose face in front of Shen Qingyu and Xiao Yunqi, Qi Zhouhua generously agreed: "No problem! How much? I'll buy it for double."
Shen Qingyu smiled and held out her hand: "Twenty-six taels of silver, or fifty-two taels if you double that."
Qi Zhouhua was dumbfounded, looking at the shopkeeper in disbelief: "So expensive?"
The shopkeeper wiped his sweat: "Second Young Master, this sky-blue silk and light-colored silk are indeed rare, and it's not easy to get them in..."
If he had known that his second young master was going to be the sucker, he would have offered to lower the price.
But you can't blame yourself for this!
If the customer doesn't haggle, why would he offer to sell it cheaper?
Qi Zhouhua chuckled dryly and said to Shen Qingyu, "Qingyu, you and Qingyao are sisters..."
Shen Qingyu looked him up and down, then suddenly smiled, her smile as bright as a spring flower: "Brother-in-law, are you short of money? This shop is all yours, you can just take it from the counter and give it to me."
Qi Zhouhua: "..."
He really didn't bring enough money.
Madam Qi was in charge of managing the household finances. She had a lot of headaches with her good-for-nothing second son and his family. They were all spendthrifts, so how could she let him spend money?
Qi Zhouhua subconsciously looked at the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper, terrified, shook his head repeatedly: "Second Young Master, the master forbids you from receiving advance payments here..."
"How dare you speak like that?" Shen Qingyao couldn't help but scold.
But they still lost face, and both Qi Zhouhua and Shen Qingyao's faces darkened!
Shen Qingyao smiled, lifted her leg and walked out: "Since you don't have the money, don't try to gamble. I'm leaving now, goodbye!"
"Wait a minute..." Shen Qingyao was unwilling. She thought for a moment and took a black round pendant off her neck. "This is something my mother left behind. I'll trade this for you."
When Shen Qingyu saw the dark, round plaque, fragments of memory surfaced in her mind, and she remembered that this thing was indeed something her mother had worn around her neck.
It turns out that after her mother passed away, this item wasn't buried with her, but was given to Shen Qingyao!
This black round plaque looks like jade, but it's also pitch black.
People generally prefer white, purple, green, and yellow jade, but black jade is not popular.
A mix of emotions churned within him, but Shen Qingyu maintained a nonchalant expression: "You think this thing is worth fifty-two taels of silver?"
Shen Qingyao was also embarrassed: If this thing were valuable, it would have been sold back then!
“Then… Husband…” Shen Qingyao looked at Qi Zhouhua with a pleading expression.
Qi Zhouhua, looking disheveled, simply ripped off the money pouch: "Here, take a look, is this enough with this extra bit of silver?"
Shen Qingyu opened the money bag and saw that there were thirty-two taels of silver.
"Fine! You can have these bolts of cloth!"
Shen Qingyu readily stuffed the cloth into Shen Qingyao's arms and turned to leave.
With silver in hand, I can just buy the silk and satin from the space mall. By buying and selling the same items, I can earn six taels of silver!
It's like giving away those few bolts of fine cotton cloth for free.
Xiao Yunqi followed him out with a strange expression, clearly in a bad mood.
Shen Qingyu took a few steps, turned her head and saw Xiao Yunqi's cold face, and asked curiously, "What's wrong with you?"
Why did you sell the things I gave you without even asking me?
“What you gave me is mine. I can sell it if I want, it’s none of your business,” Shen Qingyu asked innocently.
