At that time, Gu Yuyan's words made Jingyi lose face, so she thought she must take the opportunity to make up with Jiang Li. Unexpectedly, when she looked up and was about to retort, she saw that Jiang Li was wearing the double phoenix gold jade hairpin on her head!
That was given by the late emperor... Realizing this, Jingyi, no matter how dumb she was, knew that the woman in front of her seemed to have the empress dowager as her backer. If she continued to provoke her, she would only be asking for trouble.
There is still a long way to go. There is no need to rush to avenge today's humiliation. Thinking of this, Jingyi lowered her eyes and saluted Jiang Li obediently.
The little girl was just a little girl after all, and Jiang Li could clearly see the coldness that flashed across her eyes just now.
However, she is not afraid of trouble, but she is too lazy to look for trouble, especially those dispensable people. For her, it is better to get rid of them early and have peace and quiet. But she will have to remind Xiaojiu later to pay attention to Jingyi.
"It's like a flood washed away the Dragon King Temple, and family members don't recognize each other. I didn't expect that this herbal medicine shop was opened by the imperial aunt. I heard that the imperial aunt is an extraordinary doctor. Being able to eat here must be beneficial to both body and mind." Jingyi blinked, pretending to be innocent. "I wonder how the imperial aunt orders the herbal medicine here? Jingyi also wants to order some for my mother."
Who would believe me if I said I didn’t know who the owner of this herbal medicine shop was?
Gu Yuyan rolled her eyes.
He subconsciously held Jiang Li's hand tightly, fearing that his aunt would be deceived by the black-hearted girl in front of him.
"I've heard from your uncle before that Princess Jingyi has always been very filial. Seeing her today, it's true."
Jiang Li looked at Jingyi with an obvious smile on her face.
When Princess Jingyi saw that look, she thought the woman was really stupid and was fooled by her in just a few words.
Before he could boast, Jiang Li continued, "Xiaojiu, take your sister Jingyi directly to the VIP parlor. Since this is a custom-made medicinal meal for Princess Zhuang, I think it must be made with the finest ingredients, right, Jingyi?"
"That's natural."
"That's great, a filial and good child," Jiang Li praised again, "and what about your other sisters?"
Seeing Princess Jingling looking at them hesitantly, no one dared to refuse, fearing they would be branded as unfilial, and they all nodded in response.
"You are all good girls. Later, I will praise you in front of the prince."
Hearing Jiang Li's words, everyone became even more excited. If they could leave a good impression on the God of War Prince, it would be worth spending any amount of money.
Thinking of this, several people began to scramble to order more, to give to their fathers, grandparents, grandparents... In short, they wanted to order one for each elder in the family.
There was also a young lady from an official family who was almost crying because she had few relatives and could not compete with others.
It was not until everyone paid the deposit and left that Princess Jingyi realized that she had spent all the monthly allowance she had saved for nearly a year, and she would have to ask her mother for the remaining money.
As for Xiaojiu, he originally thought that Jiang Li didn't need to tolerate Jingyi like that, but now, looking at the mountain of silver on the table, which was only a deposit, he smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into slits.
