Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Upon hearing this, Granny Xiao was so frightened that she hurriedly got up and knelt on the ground to kowtow.

“Young Miss, this servant was wrong. I’ll never dare to do it again.”

“You old thing, how many of these things have you done? Do you think I don’t know? I’ve always thought that you’re an elder of the Wang family, so I’ve given you one chance after another. Now, you actually dare to humiliate my people. Our Wang family is small, and we can’t tolerate someone like you.”

Seeing the guards swarming over, not only was Granny Xiao tied up, but her mouth was also gagged.

Only then did Qiao Mai have a better impression of Wang Jiaru, this foodie.

On one hand, she was cute and talkative, and on the other hand, she was decisive and efficient in solving problems. She was a person who could stand up for a fruit seller.

As for her character, to be able to protect his mentally retarded younger brother along the way, this kind of person was usually not bad.

One should not be picky about how perfect their friends were, because they might not be a perfect person.

This was her principle in dealing with people. Unfortunately, in her previous life, she did not have a best friend until she was in her twenties.

Since she came here, everything went with the flow. From the bottom of her heart, she also hoped that there would be a few people around her.

After dealing with Granny Xiao, Wang Jiaru turned around with a smile on her face.

“Sister Qiao, you’re really punctual!”

“Come, get in the car, and take a look. Give me a good price. Oh right, that old woman scolded me just now.”

“Mental damage compensation?”

“It’s to compensate for my broken heart.”

“Haha, of course, you can. My Wang family is not short of money.”

When Miss Wang got into the car, she looked at the whole car full of fruits. She covered her mouth and swallowed her saliva.

“Sister, how can I thank you? You’re really a god to be able to get such fruits.”

“Do you want them?”

“Yes!”

“Make your bid!”

“All of this, plus the compensation for mental damage, how about a total of seven hundred taels?”

“Deal!”

It was a little higher than she had expected, so she could accept the price.

Miss Wang quickly counted the silver notes and gave them to her. She could not wait to take an orange from the basket and peeled it in the carriage to eat.

Zihan, who smelled the fruit fragrance outside, was unhappy. “Sister, sister, I want to eat fruit.”

Wang Jiaru remembered her brother and quickly took an orange and jumped out of the car.

“Here, eat it. There are many kinds of fruits this time. Let me say this first. If you don’t eat your meals properly, there won’t be any fruits to eat.”

At this moment, he no longer remembered what he had said about having proper meals. He only had eyes for the bright-colored orange.

Qiao Mai put away the banknotes. The servants of the Wang family came over to unload the carriage. Wang Jiaru waved at her.

“Sister Qiao, take care. I’ll pay you a visit some other day. Well, I’ll go back to the residence to eat my fruit first.”

The Wang family was like a receding tide, retreating back into their residence with a splash. Qiao Mai held his forehead and sighed. The realm of foodies was really daunting.

After the matter was done, she drove the carriage back. There was nothing else to buy.

Suddenly, she remembered that three days ago, Lu Sanniang had asked her to take her to the county town today and bring her back when she came back. However, she left after catching the carriage. How was she going to face that fierce woman when she went back?

She quickly drove around the prefecture and bought some famous pastries in the city. After thinking about it, she bought two boxes of high-quality rouge powder.

She was feeling a little guilty? What should she do?

The closer she got to Tianshui Town, the more nervous she became.

Sure enough, when the carriage arrived at the entrance of the embroidery shop, Lu Sanniang was holding her waist, looking like she was about to scold the streets.

“Sister?”

“You still know how to come back?”

“Hehe, I forgot about you when I went out. I’m really sorry.”

“Hmph!”

Lu Sanniang raised her head, looking as if she would not let this matter rest until she was coaxed.

“I bought my sister the most famous snack in Wei City.”

“Hmph, I don’t care!”

“Oh right, there’s also good rouge powder.”

“Hmph! I don’t lack this.”

Hearing this, Lu Sanniang immediately turned her head.

Qiao Mai’s eyes lit up. “Sister, do you want to see the set of clothes I mentioned to you last time?”

“Where?” 𝐛𝗲𝗱𝐧𝐨𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝐜𝐨𝐦

“I’m at home. Come, come home with me. I’ll show it to you.”

Lu Sanniang swallowed his saliva and immediately sat in the car. “Let’s go, let’s go. What are you waiting for?”

Qiao Mai smiled as he placed the things she bought in the shop and brought Lu Sanniang home.

After arranging the carriage and horses, the two of them locked the door as soon as they entered the courtyard. After entering the house, Lu Sanniang sat in front of the table, extremely nervous.

Qiao Mai opened the cabinet and took out a refined wooden box. He placed it on the table.

“Sister, take a look first.”

Seeing Qiao Mai’s solemn expression, Shopkeeper Lu knew that it must be good stuff. Her hand could not help but tremble.

She slowly opened the box and gasped when she saw what was inside.

She touched the fabric gently. “This material is so soft and light. It’s really good.”

“Look again!”

“All the embroidery is double-sided.”

She carefully picked up the clothes. “Tsk tsk, this is what a lady should wear. Although there are no jewelry embellishments, just looking at the material and the embroidery, this set of clothes should be worth 2,000 taels. If it is matched with suitable jewelry, it will definitely be very beautiful.” “I’m afraid two thousand taels won’t be enough.”

“Where did you get it?”

“My master left it for me. The last time I went to the prefecture, I got it from a friend of hers.

“So, you have to consider carefully whether you want to sell this dress and what to say when others ask.”

Shopkeeper Lu’s face also became solemn. “I told you this was left behind by a double-sided embroidery master.”

“Then, what about that master?”

“That master saw through the mortal world and become a nun. She traveled all over the world. Before she left, she asked me to sell this dress.

“This reason makes sense.”

“Is this the only one in the world?” “It should be. I don’t know where my master got the fabric from.”

“Then how much should I sell it for?”

“The people in the small county definitely can’t afford it. Why don’t you try the Wang family in the prefecture? Miss Wang was not a vain person, so she probably wouldn’t buy it. However, she definitely had connections. She might even be able to talk to the high-ranking officials in the capital. It was best to let her handle it.”

“Then I’ll leave these clothes with you for now. I’ll go with you the next time we go to the prefecture. Remember not to leave me behind again.”

“Remember to remind me the day before. I’m too busy with my store, so I’ll forget about things within three days.”

“Hmph, hmph, I won’t argue with you today for the sake of the clothes.”

“That’s my good sister.”

“Then it’s settled?”

“Yes!”

Shopkeeper Lu sat for a while before leaving. Qiao Mai felt tired after going out for a day, so she had already closed the door and entered the space.

In the past, the space was a small supermarket. Now, the space had become a farm, and it was still expanding.

The peanuts had already grown. She believed that in two days, they would be able to be cooked and sold.

She planned to plant edamame beans and sweet potatoes on the replicated land. When the fruits were removed from the shelves, this batch could catch up.

The next day, Qiao Mai was notified by someone.

“Miss Qiao, those two thieves were sentenced that day.”

“For how long?”

“Three months.”

“So little?”

“It’s not a small amount. You didn’t lose anything, and you’re fine. The county magistrate is already very fair.”

“Next time, if anyone comes to steal from my house, I’ll just kill them and not send them to the police. If such a person lives, others will continue to suffer. A dog can’t change its habit of eating sh*t.”

“Sigh, we can’t do anything about the law. These people have never learned from a young age. They’re used to being lazy and don’t do serious things at all.”

Qiao Mai smiled. “They won’t come to our town for revenge after we come out of jail, right?”

“If he dares, our mayor is not to be trifled with.”

When the goods were all arranged, she sat down and picked up the embroidery work to do slowly..
