Fu Liu was so frightened that his body trembled like a leaf.
Jiang Shuyou's tense expression finally eased a bit.
"Come over here and apologize."
"Young master, I was wrong, I deserve to die, please give me another chance."
Fu Liu was filled with regret. If he had known that his young master treated this girl differently, he would never have dared to offend this young lady.
Others may not know, but he, a servant born into a family, is very familiar with his young master's methods. Although his young master appears gentle on the surface, when he gets ruthless, the entire Jiang family trembles.
"You lackey, haven't you figured out who you should apologize to?"
"Young lady, it was my fault. I was blind and didn't recognize your greatness. I apologize. I deserve to die..."
Fu Liu crawled over and started slapping himself in the face repeatedly.
Shen Danru waved her hand.
Now that things are cleared up, they can leave.
"Girl, wait a moment."
Jiang Shuyou bowed to Shen Danru and said, "I am truly sorry. The servants in the shop have been negligent and have caused you trouble."
Shen Danru returned the greeting and said, "It's alright. In fact, we should be thanking you, young master. It was all a misunderstanding."
Jiang Shuyou was relieved to see that Shen Danru was not angry about it.
From the moment he entered, despite the aggressive presence of so many people, Shen Danru showed no sign of panic. Her composure surpassed even that of the most refined ladies in Shengjing.
This made him even more curious about Shen Danru.
Jiang Shuyou placed fifty coins into Jiang Yuyan's hand and said, "It was nothing, please take the money back. Are you two buying books today? To express my apologies, please choose whatever you like; consider it a gift from me."
It was only then that Shen Danru remembered that their purpose in coming was to buy writing brushes, ink, paper, and inkstones for Shen Yuyan.
She led Shen Yuyan to pick out some writing brushes, ink, paper, inkstones, and primers. Jiang Shuyou declined to accept the money, but Shen Danru left a ten-tael silver note and left.
This made Jiang Shuyou look at her with even greater respect.
He waved his hand in the air, and the guards immediately understood and followed.
Shen Yushu was filled with regret at this moment.
If he had known Shen Yuyan knew the owner of this place, he would have definitely come out to acknowledge him earlier, but it's not too late now.
"Brother, those two are my cousins, we are family."
"oh?"
Jiang Shuyou looked at him suspiciously.
Seeing that Jiang Shuyou didn't believe him, Shen Yushu quickly explained, "It's true. We both have the surname Shen and are from Shangqing Village. His father is my second uncle."
It turns out that the girl was from Shangqing Village.
He didn't dare to ask the girl's address earlier, for fear that she might misunderstand.
"Really? What's that girl's name?"
Shen Yushu was in a dilemma. When he remembered that Shen Yushu called Shen Danru "Second Sister", he realized that she was the daughter his second uncle had mistakenly given birth to, and he didn't even know her name.
“That young man is my second uncle’s third son, named Shen Yuyan. The woman who came with him is his second sister. How about this, I’ll go home and ask my second uncle and then tell you.”
Jiang Shuyou ignored him.
"Your name is Cong Nan, right? From now on, you'll be the shopkeeper. Everyone who framed that girl earlier, get out of here. Yipin Moke doesn't welcome them anymore."
Nan was overjoyed: "Yes, Master."
Shen Yushu and the others only realized what was happening the moment they were kicked out.
Yipin Moke has blacklisted them.
Facing the pointing fingers and whispers on the street, their faces stung with embarrassment. They glared fiercely at Shen Yushu, then turned and walked away.
Shen Yushu was secretly furious and blamed it all on Shen Danru and Shen Yuyan.
You just wait.
Fu Liu was also forced to kneel outside the gate of Yipin Moke for three days and three nights, his guts were practically turned green with rage.
This is the second time Shen Danru has come to town since she returned. She didn't have time to explore the town the first time, and this time she needs to buy a lot of things.
She led Shen Yuyan through a maze of turns until they came across a fabric shop.
The clothes worn by Father, Mother, Eldest Brother, and Yu Yan were patched upon patched, and were long since worn out. Back then, Chen Shi couldn't bear to buy them any cloth to make them new clothes.
Today, Shen Yuyan and Shen Danru came to town, and they still chose clothes with the fewest patches, but in the end, they were still looked down upon by the shop assistants at the bookstore.
She plans to make two sets of clothes for each member of her family.
Stepping into the fabric shop, one is overwhelmed by the sheer variety of fabrics on display.
She thought about it and realized that her parents would definitely not wear nice fabrics, so she might as well buy the cheapest coarse cloth.
So he picked out several colors and bought fifty feet of coarse cloth, which cost him one hundred and fifty coins.
There is a grain store in front of the cloth shop.
She could have used her points to redeem items in the system, but to avoid arousing suspicion, she bought some grain and secretly added some more to avoid suspicion.
I bought too much to carry, so I only bought 20 jin of rice and 10 jin of flour.
Of course, Shen Danru carried ten jin (5 kg) of rice, while Shen Yuyan, though small and thin, was a boy and carried twenty jin (10 kg) of rice.
Thirty catties of fine grain cost another one hundred and eighty coins.
Corn is cheap, and she's been drinking it for seven days now. Now she feels like throwing up whenever she sees it. These days, corn isn't hulled, and it gets stuck in her throat when she drinks it.
They had a hard time carrying just this much stuff. It seems we'll have to ask Dad and my older brother to come next time we come to town.
I walked a little further and saw a butcher shop. I bought five catties of pork belly for one hundred coins.
Half of the more than 800 coins I earned today are gone.
The ten taels of silver spent on writing brushes, ink, paper, and inkstones were still from my savings.
Prices in Sifang Town aren't high, but the money I earn still isn't enough to cover my expenses. I don't know how Uncle Liu's wonton shop is doing. It would be great if I could send her some money.
It's already afternoon, and she doesn't know if Old Man Liu is at the city gate. If she can't get a ride on his oxcart, she'll be exhausted walking back to Shangqing Village. She'd rather hire a horse-drawn carriage.
