Chapter 055: Exactly the same
The next day, Wen Ruyue's calligraphy and painting shop opened.
Wen Yan and Meng Chifei decided to join in the fun.
So, the two of them got up early, packed up quickly, and prepared to set off.
Ying Zhilin chased out and stuffed a purse into Wen Yan's hand: "Although you don't lack money, as the head of the family, I still have to give you some pocket money."
Weighing it, it was about twenty taels of silver.
Wen Yan didn't want it at all.
But when I think about the fact that he specifically mentioned giving a gift to Ji Shanchang yesterday, is he compensating me for what happened yesterday?
He is also very careful.
Wen Yan accepted the money generously and said, "I'll bring you some delicious food when I come back."
"Yanyan, let's go." Meng Chifei rode on horseback and called Wen Yan.
She was tall to begin with, and now sitting on the horse, she felt a sense of oppression.
"I'm coming." Wen Yan lifted her skirt and walked out of the yard.
Meng Chifei stretched out his hand towards her.
Wen Yan clasped her hand.
Meng Chifei pulled hard and Wen Yan sat behind her.
Wen Yan made a gesture to Ying Zhilin, saying "go back quickly", and told Meng Chifei to set off.
Meng Chifei lightly squeezed the horse's belly, and the horse, whiter than snow, galloped out like an arrow.
"Ah..." Wen Yan was caught off guard.
The butt caught up, but the body didn't.
His upper body tilted backward and he almost fell off the horse.
She blamed the woman for holding onto Meng Chifei's waist so that she didn't fall off the horse.
"You scared me again!" Wen Yan was so angry that he scratched her waist.
Every time I rode with Meng Chifei, I was terrified.
Meng Chifei's two guards also rode their horses to catch up.
They rode their horses all the way.
It usually takes three or two hours to walk here, but today we arrived in less than an hour.
After entering the capital, Wen Yan first went to "Tianyi Cloth Shop" and asked the shopkeeper to help send a letter to the Huo family, and be sure to hand it to Aunt Mei personally.
Afterwards, they tidied up the shop before leaving.
It’s not time to open the shop yet.
Wen Yan and the others strolled along the way.
Just arrived at Donglin Street.
I saw a lot of people gathering in one place.
Wen Yan was very familiar with that location.
In her previous life, her calligraphy shop was opened at that location.
The two looked at each other and followed the crowd.
After a while, they arrived in front of the shop.
There was a dragon and lion dance going on in front of the shop, and the crowd of onlookers was so dense that no one could get in or out of the shop.
After the lion dance, a few strings of firecrackers were set off.
Wen Ruyue finally came out with the help of her maid.
She was wearing a brocade dress, with gold and jade hairpins on her head, and she looked very noble.
When the onlookers saw her, they subconsciously stopped talking and even held their breath.
It was Wen Ruyue's turn to give a speech.
With so many eyes staring at her, Wen Ruyue couldn't help but hesitate.
I forgot all the words I had memorized.
He said a few words dryly: "Dear guests, today is the opening of our shop. Please come and patronize us in the future."
As she spoke, she pulled off the red silk on the plaque, and the name of the shop was revealed before everyone - Miaobi Zhai.
Wen Yan looked at the name of the store and frowned.
Then, two servants brought out a basket covered with red silk.
When the red silk was opened, a basket full of copper coins was revealed.
"The boss is very happy today and wants to share the joy with you all." After saying that.
The servant grabbed the copper coins and threw them into the crowd.
Crash——
The copper coin fell to the ground.
Everyone rushed forward and bent down to pick it up.
For a moment, cheers of people finding money were heard everywhere.
"I found it, one or two cents!"
"I picked up some too, a total of four coins." Just after the first wave of coins were picked up, the second wave of copper coins fell.
The people, who had just straightened up, bent down again to pick it up.
Looking at the familiar store name and the act of throwing money, Wen Yan curled the corners of his mouth in sarcasm.
When she heard that Wen Ruyue opened a calligraphy and painting shop here, she guessed that Wen Ruyue wanted to steal her wealth.
But she didn't expect Wen Ruyue to copy it one to one.
Same store name, same way of attracting customers.
She wouldn’t even sell the same things in her store!
After scattering five waves of copper coins, less than one-third of the copper coins in the basket were used up.
The people waited expectantly for the next wave of copper coins, but then they heard the servant say, "The first wave of coins has ended."
It’s gone!
There were sounds of regret in the crowd.
Then the servant said, "Today, Miaobizhai is opening for a special promotion. Everything on the first floor is 30% off, and on the second floor it's 20% off. If you need pens, inkstones, paper, or inkstones, come in and buy some. The next promotion will be in an hour. Please spread the word about Miaobizhai."
I know there is no money to be picked up for the time being.
Most people dispersed.
Those who stayed were those who wanted to buy pens, ink, paper and inkstone.
These people were warmly welcomed into the store by the servants.
People in all layers of space were exposed.
Wen Yan and Meng Chifei are particularly conspicuous.
Wen Ruyue saw them at a glance.
The corners of her mouth turned up in a provocative expression as she was about to walk towards them.
Then I saw a pink sedan parked in front of the shop.
The curtain opened and Zhu Lele, dressed in gorgeous clothes, walked out.
Wen Ruyue's expression changed slightly, and she forced a smile as she walked towards him.
"Cousin Lele, why are you here?"
Zhu Lele rolled her eyes and reached out to Wen Ruyue, motioning her to support her. "The Zhu and Huo families are relatives, so naturally I had to come and see my cousin's shop open. If it weren't for my mother's instructions, do you think I would want to come?"
A country girl who grew up in the countryside thought that by marrying her cousin, she could become a phoenix?
Fuck you!
Not even as good as that fake Wen Yan.
Her reputation as a talented young lady is real after all.
Wen Ruyue looked at the hand that Zhu Lele stretched out. Was he treating her like a maid?
She gritted her teeth, but finally forced a smile and helped him up affectionately.
Wen Ruyue helped Zhu Lele into the shop.
Zhu Lele's little followers also followed him in.
They all looked down on Wen Ruyue.
Afterwards, noble ladies and gentlemen came into the shop one after another.
Wen Yan knew all of these people, and some of them were even friends with him.
However, since her identity was exposed, they have kept their distance from her, and occasionally they would ridicule and tease her when they meet her.
Later, she married Huo Yaoxing.
These people changed their attitude again and took the initiative to make friends with her.
In this life, the person who married Huo Yaoxing was Wen Ruyue, but they still tried to make friends with her.
Meng Chifei sneered: "These people are so shameless.
Didn't you used to dislike Wen Ruyue for growing up in the countryside and being so uncouth that you didn't even want to talk to her, and even said that you felt dirty just breathing the same air with her?
Look at the flattering smiles on their faces now, it makes me feel ashamed."
"They are only respecting the title of Jinping Prince's wife, not a specific person." Wen Yan had already seen through these people. She said indifferently, "Let's go in and take a look."
The two walked into the shop together.
A familiar feeling came over me.
The decoration and layout of the shop are exactly the same as in the previous life.
She wouldn't even...
Wen Yan said nothing and turned to check the pens, ink, paper and inkstone.
She knew who the supplier was just by looking at and touching these things.
very good.
All of them were the best suppliers selected from her previous life's collaborations.
