Chapter 486 Meeting
Zhulan thought that if she wanted to meet Yao Zheyu she had to wait until Zhou Shuren was on vacation, but unexpectedly, she met him in a jewelry shop when she took her daughter out to choose jewelry.
Zhulan was waiting for the shopkeeper to bring out new styles when Yao Zheyu went upstairs.
Xue Han retreated behind her mother calmly. She remembered this man. Even though she hadn't seen him for several years, her memory was still very deep. Young Master Yao was full of pride, and at that time, there was no father in Young Master Yao's eyes.
When we met again, Master Yao had grown taller, his face looked more resolute, he stood taller, and his attire was much simpler. He had really changed a lot.
The shopkeeper came out with new designs, speaking in a courteous tone, not only because Mr. Zhou was the prefect, but also because the Zhou family had ordered a lot of jewelry a few days ago, and the jewelry shop had made a lot of money. "Take a look, do you like any of these?"
Zhulan came this time to buy jewelry for her daughter and granddaughter, especially the daughter. With her status, she has to attend more banquets and buy jewelry frequently. Zhulan doesn't want to be despised or ridiculed for raising a daughter. Why does she make money? It's to live a better life and for her children.
Zhulan likes jewelry that matches the outfit and goes with it. She immediately fell in love with the sapphire-encrusted headpiece jewelry. "This set of sapphire jewelry, and this set of emerald jewelry, these two sets."
The shopkeeper's eyes narrowed. These two sets of jewelry were the most expensive. Mrs. Zhou really had good taste. "Okay, I'll pick them up for you."
Yao Zheyu, who had been a background figure, finally spoke up, "Wait a minute."
Zhulan looked at Yao Zheyu in confusion. Yao Zheyu also took a fancy to her. Yes, the shopkeeper came out just in time. She didn't even have time to guess why Yao Zheyu came to the jewelry shop.
The shopkeeper saw the young man as soon as he came out. However, as the shopkeeper of the largest jewelry shop in Jinzhou City, he knew all the sons and daughters of officials of the sixth rank and above. He did not recognize him when he saw him just now, but because of his noble aura, he was going to greet him later.
But now the young master spoke, and the shopkeeper asked politely, "What's the matter, young master?"
Yao Zheyu paused for a moment and asked, "Excuse me, do you have another set of emerald-inlaid headpieces in the store?"
The shopkeeper shook his head and said, "There is only one set of headgear in our store."
He didn't dare to wear more than one of the same head ornaments. These young ladies from official families like to compare jewelry. If they really wear the same one, it would cause endless trouble, so his hair has always been unique.
Yao Zheyu pursed his lips, turned around and was stunned. He had only paid attention to the jewelry just now, and really didn't pay attention to the lady who bought the jewelry. He looked carefully and found that she looked familiar. He looked more carefully and finally recognized her. What a coincidence, "Mrs. Yang."
Zhulan wanted to touch her face. She was fatter and hadn't lost much weight since her confinement. But she didn't need to look at it for so long. "Prince."
Yao Zheyu felt awkward, especially awkward. Zhou Shuren, whom he had ignored before, became the prefect of Jinzhou and the emperor's confidant in just a few years. Yao Zheyu really regretted it. He really shouldn't have asked for the money back, but he had no choice. It was just like that. He was forced by his father to need some money. At that time, he thought that since there was a gap in status, he could just help out in the future. But he didn't expect that Lord Zhou would catch the emperor's eye and rely on his own ability to go against the current.
Yao Zheyu was embarrassed. If he had known this day would happen, he would not have asked for the money after selling the jewelry left by his mother. His heart sank. He had been paying close attention to Lord Zhou. Judging from Lord Zhou's actions, he was definitely a vengeful person. In addition, his father had asked Lord Zhou to visit the mansion. Ha, Lord Zhou definitely did not like anyone from the Yao family.
Zhulan curled the corner of her mouth. Is Yao Zheyu distracted?
The shopkeeper didn't dare to be dissatisfied even while standing there, because the man in front of him was the top of the Jinzhou discussion group, the prince of Yaohou Mansion. He was directly under the emperor and had a lot of power in his hands. Most importantly, he was an excellent candidate for son-in-law.
The sales of our jewelry have been very good in the past few days, and this person has contributed to this.
Yao Zheyu quickly came back to his senses. It seemed that he could not buy the headgear he liked. He did not want to offend the Zhou family again. He was different from Zhou Shuren. Zhou Shuren was more favored by the emperor than him, and Lord Zhou had a higher status in the emperor's heart. But he was different. He was the knife in the emperor's hand.
Yao Zheyu smiled and said, "I have something else to do. I'll leave first."
Zhu Lan raised her eyebrows, "Prince, please."
Yao Zheyu simply left. The shopkeeper looked downstairs at the prince, who was not willing to give in. He had to re-evaluate Lord Zhou.
