Gao Yinzhi's face turned pale with anger, and she gritted her teeth. But she didn't want to lose face in front of so many people.
The customers who came to the Ni Chang Ge shop were mostly people of some status. Upstairs, there were also several ladies and young women who were acquaintances of Gao Yinzhi and Li Fangfang.
After thinking it over, Gao Yinzhi decided to swallow her anger for the time being.
She glanced at Li Fangfang, seemingly complaining that Li Fangfang was so tactless as to argue with this rude woman at this time.
The words that came out of his mouth were simply unbearable to hear.
Gao Yinzhi snorted coldly and left with the old woman and maid beside her.
Li Fangfang glared at He Tiantian fiercely, then followed her without giving up.
After the mother and daughter left the gate of the Ni Chang Pavilion, Li Fangfang complained to Gao Yinzhi in a very unhappy mood.
“Mother, we shouldn’t show mercy to such a rude woman. She made me lose face in my husband’s family, and I can’t swallow this insult!”
Upon hearing this, Gao Yinzhi stopped in her tracks.
"Are you sure she works at the Neon Pavilion?"
Li Fangfang was somewhat speechless when asked this question. She had been to Ni Chang Pavilion many times, but this was indeed the first time she had seen Madam He again.
Thinking of this, Li Fangfang shook her head.
Gao Yinzhi understood immediately. "Then send someone to investigate. It's better to avoid trouble. If you're so impatient, you'll suffer after you get married."
Li Fangfang didn't take any of this to heart. She said with some pride, "Mother, don't worry, that Young Master Cheng is very good to me."
Seeing her daughter's happy expression, Gao Yinzhi didn't say anything more.
Inside the Ni Chang Pavilion, Gao Yinzhi and her daughter Li Fangfang had just left when Cheng Ying and Zhao Dahai surrounded them.
Cheng Ying was very worried. "Auntie, who were those two people just now? They seemed to be speaking in a hostile tone."
Zhao Dahai nodded in agreement; the two men just now seemed to have a grudge against Aunt He.
However, He Tiantian didn't intend to make the two of them think too much, so she casually said, "It happened more than a year ago. It's nothing, just a little bickering when we meet."
Cheng Ying and Zhao Dahai nodded, neither of them knowing what to say.
Ah Nuan, who was standing to the side, reminded them, "Those two women look like they're vengeful; be careful."
He Tiantian smiled and patted Anuan's head, then nodded solemnly.
She admired Ah Nuan quite a bit; she was very good at reading people's expressions.
He Tiantian told them to continue shopping, while she waited a while longer before Manager Guan came down.
However, Hong Erniang also came down with Manager Guan.
Hong Erniang greeted He Tiantian warmly, "He Tiantian, you've finally arrived! When did you come to the city? I used to visit your shop often when I passed by the other day, but you weren't there."
He Tiantian told them when she arrived and what she had been busy with these past few days.
Today was just a casual chat, and the three of us have such a good relationship.
So we went upstairs to a private room, where we sat by the stove, drank fragrant tea, ate some snacks, and chatted together.
However, when He Tiantian asked Hong Erniang why she was there, Hong Erniang seemed very excited.
"He Meizi, there are so many things you don't know after the New Year."
He Tiantian nodded, then asked with interest, "What's wrong? Is there any good news?"
Hong Erniang took a sip of tea. "That's certainly a good thing. I've introduced a girl to our little brother Guan."
Upon hearing that it was a joyous occasion concerning a lifelong event, He Tiantian became even more interested.
She glanced at Manager Guan sitting to the side, her face flushing slightly.
"Whose daughter is this? Come and introduce her to me."
Hong Erniang then explained in detail, "She's the girl next door in the alley where I live. We've been neighbors for over twenty years. There are three girls in her family."
He Tiantian naturally didn't know which alley Hong Erniang lived in; they had always met at the shop before.
"This time, I'm introducing the eldest daughter of that family. She's quite pretty."
Since Hong Erniang said so, it must be true. Because Hong Erniang has always been discerning and has a very accurate eye for people.
Manager Guan was very grateful. "Sister Hong, my dear sister, thank you so much."
Hong Erniang didn't think it was a big deal. "Don't be so polite. Since you're my brother, I have to put some effort into your marriage."
The three of them chatted about business matters for the coming year, and they were all looking forward to making big money in the spring.
After being delayed for half a day, He Tiantian finally got up and left.
Downstairs, Cheng Ying and Zhao Dahai picked out a lot of things for A Nuan, and the two happily held up the clothes and compared them on A Nuan.
When it came time to pay the bill, they naturally gave me a much cheaper price.
The day of Zhao Wanzi's test is getting closer and closer. Although March is the beginning of spring, the weather is still very cold because of the snow that fell a few days ago.
The girls' academy in Changning County officially began enrolling students, and the name was personally inscribed by Magistrate Liu: Hongxiu Academy.
Hongxiu Academy is located in the west of the city, while Bailu Academy is located in the east. The two academies are separated by thousands of miles.
However, everyone was full of curiosity about this Red Sleeve Academy, and anyone who had time squeezed in to watch.
Among them were many students from Bailu Academy, who were also filled with curiosity about the girls' academy.
The test was scheduled for the third day of the third lunar month. Early in the morning, all the women who wanted to study at the academy had to register in person.
Of course, not everyone can afford to study. Not only does it require high tuition fees, but the prices of writing materials like pens, ink, paper, and inkstones are also outrageously expensive.
