Xu Yuqing never knew politeness. Thinking that Jiang Shangyun was willing to pay for her, she felt it would be foolish not to buy everything she wanted.
So Xu Yuqing bought everything the proprietress recommended. When Jiang Shangyun paid the bill and heard it was fifteen taels of silver, although it pained him a little, he immediately took out the money without blinking an eye. Xu Yuqing was very satisfied with this, very satisfied with Jiang Shangyun, and had a better impression of him.
After Jiang Shangyun and Xu Yuqing left the makeup shop, he respectfully said, "Second Young Madam, are there any other shops you'd like to visit or items you want to buy? If not, shall we head back to the inn?"
Xu Yuqing frowned, slightly displeased, "Why are we going back so soon? We've only been out for a little while."
"There's no helping it. We have to get back before Miss Yue returns to the inn. Second Young Madam, there will be plenty of time for future shopping trips. If I find an opportunity, I will take you out to shop and buy things for you. I'll buy you whatever you desire," Jiang Shangyun said with a fawning expression.
Hearing his words, Xu Yuqing's smile returned, "Alright, let's go back then."
He was right. There would be plenty of time.
As long as he was willing to take her out, there would be many opportunities for shopping in the future, and he had already said he would buy her whatever she wanted. She could spend his money later.
Therefore, there was no need to rush shopping now. Anyway, she had already bought the skincare cream and rouge she wanted the most, and also many other good things.
Seeing that Xu Yuqing had agreed and didn't make things difficult for him, Jiang Shangyun's lips curved upwards slightly in pleasure. "Thank you, Second Young Madam."
Jiang Shangyun took Xu Yuqing back to the inn. On the way back, he saw hawkers selling candy and toys that children liked. He stopped Xu Yuqing and took the initiative to buy candy and toys for children and gave them to Xu Yuqing.
"I remember you told Miss Ying earlier that you would bring her delicious treats and fun toys. I took the liberty of making this decision for you and bought these. Please forgive me, Second Young Madam."
How could Xu Yuqing blame him? She only felt that he was too thoughtful, and her satisfaction and good impression of him grew.
She had forgotten that she had promised her daughter to buy back delicious food and fun toys. She never expected him to remember.
This man... is really good!
He was even better than her deceased husband. Although her deceased husband was alright, he was not thoughtful at all.
Xu Yuqing did not consider at all that comparing Jiang Shangyun to her husband was extremely inappropriate.
Jiang Shangyun was just a stranger she had just met.
Xu Yuqing also did not consider whether Jiang Shangyun was too abnormally good. Even if he said that the Marquis of Weining Manor had shown him kindness and he wanted to repay it, his actions were clearly more than simple repayment. Pure repayment would not be this good.
Xu Yuqing followed Jiang Shangyun and returned smoothly to the back door of the inn. After Jiang Shangyun said "excuse me," he reached out to cover her mouth again, then touched her buttocks, lifted her up, and used his Qinggong to fly into the inn. He returned along the same path he had come, and soon entered the second-floor corridor without any issues.
Before Jiang Shangyun carried Xu Yuqing into the second-floor corridor through the window, he had already checked that there was no one in the corridor, so he dared to enter. Therefore, after they entered the second-floor corridor, they were not discovered at all.
Jiang Shangyun gently put Xu Yuqing down. Although Xu Yuqing felt shy this time, she did not get angry or blame Jiang Shangyun as she had before, nor did she slap him wildly.
A hint of shyness flashed across Xu Yuqing's face. With a slightly flushed face, she took off the bamboo hat from her head and returned it to him. Then, she took all the items he was carrying, which she had bought earlier, and said softly, "I'll go back to my room myself. You may withdraw."
"Yes," Jiang Shangyun replied with a smile and cupped his hands.
Her reaction indicated that he was approaching success. In the near future, he would be able to change his own destiny, and even the destiny of his entire family.
Xu Yuqing turned and walked towards the inn room where she was staying, not noticing the ambition flashing in Jiang Shangyun's eyes.
At this moment, Huangfu Yue was buying a carriage, completely unaware that a wolf was eyeing Xu Yuqing, and that Xu Yuqing was inviting trouble into the house.
Because Huangfu Yue had seen every corner of Mian Dian Town through Xiao Hei's eyes the day before, she was very familiar with Mian Dian Town. After leaving the inn, she walked directly to the place in town that sold carriages, without needing to ask anyone for directions.
The place selling carriages was a little far from the inn. Although Huangfu Yue walked quickly, it still took some time to reach the carriage dealership.
The carriage dealership was very large. From the outside, one could see many carriages parked inside, and quite a few horses tied up.
"Boss, I want to buy six large carriages, with horses. The carriages must be good, and the horses must be good too," Huangfu Yue said to the man who looked like the owner and was leisurely sipping tea as soon as she entered the carriage dealership.
The boss was overjoyed when he heard Huangfu Yue's words. This was a god of wealth coming to visit!
"Certainly. Miss, please come this way. I will first show you the large carriages." The boss bowed and made a gesture of invitation, feeling extremely curious about Huangfu Yue in his heart.
He was very curious how such a young girl could be so extravagant, having the money to buy six large carriages at once, and with horses too. This would require a great deal of money.
He sized up Huangfu Yue, wanting very much to see her true face, but Huangfu Yue was wearing a bamboo hat, and no matter how he looked, he couldn't see her face, which made him disappointed and give up.
Huangfu Yue followed the boss to the area where the large carriages were displayed. She carefully examined the row of large carriages in front of her. All of them had carriages, some with beautiful and luxurious carriages, and some with simple and ordinary carriages. In total, there were exactly six large carriages, which was the number she wanted.
"I'll take this row of large carriages. How much?" Huangfu Yue asked.
"One hundred and twenty taels of silver for all of them," the boss replied.
Huangfu Yue raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard it was over a hundred taels, "Can't you make it cheaper? Your price is a bit high."
"Miss, this is already my lowest price. Considering you're buying so many, I'm giving you this price... These are six large carriages, you know. This price is very cheap," the boss said quickly.
Huangfu Yue thought about it. Indeed, this was the price for six large carriages combined. This price was not actually expensive.
Huangfu Yue decided against bargaining and nodded, "Alright, deal. I won't haggle with you. However, when buying horses, you must give me a better price."
"Don't worry, I'll also give you the lowest price for the horses. I am an honest businessman and will not sell you at a high price. Since you are buying many carriages and horses from me, I will definitely give you the cheapest price," the boss said with a smile and nodded.
