Chapter 514: Ridicule
In the private room on the third floor.
Wen Yan listened to the maid's announcement and nodded to the others in the room: "I should go out to entertain the guests. You guys stay in the room for now."
"Why don't I accompany you?" Ying Zhilin suggested.
The guests outside are all from important backgrounds and are usually flattered.
Ying Zhilin was afraid that she would be wronged.
Wen Yan waved her hand: "It's okay, I can handle it. Wait until I send them away and come back."
Wen Yan said this and walked out.
"Do you guests like the glassware from my Liuguang Pavilion?" Wen Yan asked with a smile.
Everyone turned around and saw Wen Yan walking out from the back room.
Wen Yan hurried forward and saluted Princess Taisu: "Greetings, Princess."
"Get up quickly." Princess Taisu exempted her from the formalities.
Wen Ruyue's eyes widened instantly: "Wen Yan! Why are you here?"
Could it be that all these glasswares belong to Wen Yan?
How much silver would it cost to sell so many glasswares?
One thousand taels?
Ten thousand taels?
Or one hundred thousand taels?
I'm afraid that this glass Guanyin statue in front of me alone is worth 100,000 taels.
Plus, the glass chandelier on the roof can’t be cheaper than the glass Guanyin…
Wen Ruyue counted on her fingers, feeling a pang of pain in her heart.
Damn Wen Yan, is she going to make her rich again?
Wen Yan smiled and said, "I'm employed by the boss to help manage this glass shop. Why can't I be here?"
Wen Ruyue's resentment that had been pent up in her chest suddenly released.
As long as it’s not Wen Yan’s shop, it’s fine.
I hope Wen Yan can’t get what she can’t get either.
Zhu Lele laughed sarcastically: "It's really funny, the former talented girl from the capital has now fallen to the point of being a shopkeeper!
Why don't you kneel down and beg me to give you a few embroidered handkerchiefs every month, so that you don't have to work hard outside and show up in public all day just to have a full meal.
You don't care about your own face, but at least you should consider your husband who is the top scholar." Zhu Lele mocked him.
“Thank you for your kindness, Miss Zhu.
"It's just that Miss Zhu has always had a hard time judging her limits, and I don't want to embroider something that doesn't conform to the regulations and cause trouble." Wen Yan retorted bluntly.
This was an implicit reference to the incident where she was called into the palace and reprimanded for sewing purple beads on her embroidered shoes.
"You..." Zhu Lele was so angry that her face turned blue and white.
Thinking back to the time when she learned that Wen Yan's poor husband had passed the imperial examination and become the top scorer, she was extremely upset.
How come Wen Yan's life is so good?
Although she was born in a peasant family, she was transferred to the home of the Minister of Rites and became a rich lady for more than ten years.
After being beaten back to her original form, she married a poor scholar. Unexpectedly, the poor scholar won three top honors in the imperial examination and became the new top scholar who was very popular.
Fortunately, God had eyes and the top scholar lost his favor and was exiled to the Dali Temple to serve as a small judge.
However, Wen Yan has fallen to the level of a shop owner, but his tongue is still so sharp.
Wen Yan no longer paid attention to her, but looked at others with a smile.
"If you like anything in the shop today, please come and buy it tomorrow," Wen Yan said.
At this time, a lady said, "If there is something we like, can we reserve it now?"
Wen Yan shook her head: "I'm sorry, ma'am. The boss's rules cannot be violated."
The lady nodded regretfully and didn't ask any more questions.
Wen Yan invited everyone to sit down and asked the maids to bring tea and snacks, allowing them to appreciate the things while chatting.
The people present had different status, some were friends, and some were enemies.
However, with Princess Taisu present, no one can try to show off.
Even if you have a lot of evil thoughts, you have to keep them in your heart.
For a moment, the atmosphere was exceptionally harmonious and friendly.
After a while, Wen Ruyue saw that the time was almost right, so he winked at the woman beside him.
With Princess Taisu as her living signboard, how could she let it go!
The woman looked nervous. She took a sip of tea and turned the conversation to the clothes. "Wow! The dress Princess Taisu is wearing looks like the most popular style in Sister Ruyue's shop!"
As soon as the woman spoke, everyone's attention was drawn to Princess Taisu.
Princess Taisu was not annoyed, but smiled and raised her sleeves: "Are they really that similar?"
"It's not similar, except for the color, everything else is exactly the same. I bought it too, but I didn't wear it today, otherwise I could have worn sister outfits with the princess." Another woman had a pure look in her eyes when she spoke, and she seemed to be a simple and straightforward person.
Everyone smiled and praised Princess Taisu, saying that the dress made her look like a fairy from heaven.
Wen Ruyue stood up with a shy look on her face and bowed to everyone, "I never thought that the clothes I just casually thought of would be liked by everyone.
Thank you for your kindness, ladies and gentlemen. In three days, my shop will have new styles. If you are interested, you can go and have a look."
In fact, the moon festival happened so long ago that Wen Ruyue didn’t notice it.
It's closer now.
She then realized that the fabric of the dress Princess Taisu was wearing was very different from the ones sold in her own store.
The one worn by Princess Taisu is even softer and more flowing.
Only when Princess Taisu wears it will she look ethereal.
The first person she thought of was Wen Yan.
This dress was originally designed by her in her previous life.
It is possible that in this life, she is jealous of me and makes exactly the same clothes to cause trouble for me.
Wen Yan wants to ruin his own show?
snort!
She wanted to kill two birds with one stone today and beat Wen Yan to death in front of everyone.
The clothes in Wen Ruyue's shop are indeed popular.
Because the production is limited, if you go too late, you won’t be able to buy it.
The expensive price is actually the least worth mentioning.
Many people said they would definitely go and asked Wen Ruyue to save a new model for them.
For a moment, Wen Ruyue became the focus of everyone's attention.
Many young girls asked Wen Ruyue about her new clothes, asking what style they were, what elements they contained, and what the style was.
Wen Ruyue was very graceful and answered all the questions with a smile, pretending to be friendly, as if she had a very good relationship with all the women present.
Princess Taisu just smiled when she saw this.
She waved at Wen Yan.
Wen Yan moved a round stool and sat next to her.
Princess Taisu whispered, "Did you really buy this dress from her?"
Wen Yan originally presented the new clothes to the Empress through Madam Sheng Er.
He also said that he did it himself.
If it was really bought from somewhere else, to put it more seriously, it would be a crime of deceiving the emperor.
She was worried that Wen Yan couldn't handle this.
Wen Yan smiled and said, "How is that possible? If I dare to use someone else's power, wouldn't that be a crime of deceiving the emperor? It's not like I want to die."
"So you're just going to let her go on like this? Do you still want to keep your reputation?
How about I help you?" Princess Taisu wanted to support her.
After all, it was Wen Yan and Cheng Yuan who helped her get the opportunity to worship the moon, so she should at least return the favor.
Wen Yan quickly stopped her: "As long as she doesn't come closer, forget it.
If you have a bad reputation because of me, I am to blame."
"You..." Princess Tai Su curled her lips with a smile, looking helpless.
