Madam Xu the First and Madam Xu the Second were, after all, members of the Marquis's household. Although they had fallen on hard times, they still held the title of Marquis and could still get some information about high society.
I've heard that many noble families in the capital are buying clothes from this shop called Jinxiufang, and even Princess Changning and Princess Jianing are frequent customers.
They heard that although the shop was simple, the craftsmanship was excellent, and the style was unique to this shop. So, the two of them brought their daughters along to come and take a look.
Song Ning pretended not to see anything. If no one bothered her, she naturally wouldn't go out of her way to cause trouble. After all, she was running a business, and everyone who came in was a customer.
Besides, isn't it more satisfying to make money off people you hate?
However, Madam Xu and Madam Xu the Second did not think so.
They were still holding a grudge after being humiliated by a young girl like Song Ning last time.
The two girls behind them followed the gaze of the two men, ignoring Song Ning, but immediately recognized Mu Xueyun.
The Mu family was considered one of the most prominent families in the capital; everyone who saw them would have to go up and greet them.
The Xu family wanted to turn their fortunes around, so they had to find a way, and they started looking for a solution with their two daughters.
As long as a member of the Xu family marries into a powerful and influential family, they might even be able to secure an official position in the future.
Of course, they can't marry into a wealthy family like the Mu family right now.
Behind her, Xu Minghui excitedly tugged at Madam Xu's sleeve and whispered, "Mother, the eldest daughter of the Mu family is here too."
Madam Xu did not recognize Mu Xueyun, so she looked at the girl next to Song Ning and asked, "Is that the Mu family's daughter?"
"Yes, Mother. Didn't Father say that with the Mu family's current status and position, promoting someone would be a piece of cake?"
When have you ever seen a girl from the Mu family?
"I ran into them when my sister and I went out that day, and we even talked."
Madam Xu was delighted and quickly patted her daughter's hand: "Good child, you are capable. Come, let's greet Miss Mu."
Song Ning immediately noticed the Xu family coming this way, and initially thought they were there to cause trouble again, but they completely ignored her.
Madam Xu smiled so broadly that wrinkles appeared on her face: "Miss Mu, I never expected to run into you here. What a coincidence!"
Mu Xueyun glanced at the four people and asked, "Who are you?"
Madam Xu's smile froze, and Madam Xu immediately said, "Miss Mu is truly forgetful. Minghui said she had spoken with you earlier, and since we met today, she thought I'd come and pay my respects."
As she spoke, Xu Minghui stepped forward and gave a slight curtsy.
Mu Xueyun stared at her face for a long time, and suddenly remembered: "Oh, it's you. Last time at the lantern festival, you dirtied Miss Zhao's shoes and almost got beaten up by her."
puff!
Song Ning lowered her head, suppressing a laugh. Mu Xueyun's words really won her over.
Previously, Xu Minghui offended the daughter of General Weiyuan and was almost taught a lesson by that girl, but Mu Xueyun helped her out of the predicament.
Xu Minghui's expression was a little unpleasant, but she still smiled and said, "It's me. I didn't expect Miss Mu to still remember me."
Mu Xueyun looked completely innocent: "Of course I remember. After all, you're the first person to shine shoes for someone on the street."
Xu Minghui's face turned even uglier.
Mu Xueyun kindly reminded him, "But you should be more careful next time. General Yuan is Miss Zhao's fiancé. You shouldn't try to take advantage of him next time. Miss Zhao is a martial arts expert. You can't even withstand one slap from her. There's no way she'll take you into her household as a concubine."
Song Ning raised an eyebrow; there was a lot of information there.
The four women in the Xu family had faces as black as the bottom of a pot.
"I...I understand, thank you for reminding me, Miss Mu."
Xu Minghui bit her lip, lowered her head, and dared not speak again.
Madam Xu and Madam Xu originally wanted to show their faces in front of Mu Xueyun, but now, while they did manage to show their faces, their embarrassing secrets have also been revealed.
Now, apart from Old Madam Xu, everyone else in the Xu family is trying to curry favor with powerful and influential people in the capital, not missing a single opportunity to climb the social ladder.
But instead of taking the right path, they dream of getting rich quick and easy money.
The General Yuan whom Xu Minghui had taken a liking to was a deputy general under General Weiyuan. He was not old, but he had already made military achievements. He and Miss Zhao were childhood sweethearts.
However, by chance, Xu Minghui met this General Yuan and actually tried to steal him from the Zhao family's daughter.
The Zhao family girl was not one to be trifled with; she immediately flew into a rage, insisting that Xu Minghui had dirtied her shoes and demanding compensation.
However, Xu Minghui had no money, so she offered to help her clean it. But the Zhao family girl deliberately wanted to teach her a lesson, so she said it wasn't clean and almost threw a punch. It was Mu Xueyun, who happened to be passing by, who stepped forward to help.
Mu Xueyun had forgotten about this matter, but thanks to them, she has remembered it again.
Song Ning was struggling to suppress her laughter.
The Xu family lost interest in browsing any more shops, quickly bowed to Mu Xueyun, and fled as if they were escaping.
"Pfft, hahahahaha!" Song Ning couldn't help but burst out laughing as soon as the person left.
Mu Xueyun asked in confusion, "What are you laughing at?"
Song Ning waved her hand: "It's nothing, I just think you... are quite cute."
cute?
This is the first time someone has ever praised her like this.
"Since I'm cute, would you like to be my teacher?"
Song Ning was in a good mood and easy to talk to, so he immediately said, "I'll consider it since you did a good job today."
Although Mu Xueyun's actions were unintentional, she disgusted the Xu family, so they are now her good friends.
