“Cousin is truly talented. You’re discussing marriage with General Xiao Zheng, and you even have a bodyguard with you. No wonder the Prince of Yong’an County treated you like that!”
A slightly mocking voice came from above the stairs.
Ye Zhenzhen deliberately didn’t control her volume. At this moment, in the spacious Thousand-Jiao Pavilion, all attention was focused on Su Han.
Su Han frowned and glanced at Ye Zhenzhen.
“Miss Ye, it seems you’ve already found something satisfactory! If convenient, Miss Ye, please settle the bill downstairs first, along with the previous ones.”
Wu Jinyan smiled and diverted the topic, refocusing attention on Ye Zhenzhen.
Ye Zhenzhen descended the stairs leisurely. Passing by, she snorted softly, “Of course, I will settle the bill. Marquis’s Manor is wealthy. Do you think I’d miss out on your money? I thought Brother Su Hao’s fiancee was generous, but it seems she only cares about such trifling profits. With your behavior, this Thousand-Jiao Pavilion will likely close sooner or later, won’t it?”
Ye Zhenzhen tossed the silver notes to the accountant while speaking. “We’re family. Boss Wu, you’re so stingy. I wonder how much profit you make from other wealthy ladies!”
To protect Su Han, Wu Jinyan was being targeted, so Ye Zhenzhen slandered him.
The young ladies present weren’t lacking in money. Yet upon hearing Ye Zhenzhen’s words, they began to suspect that Wu Jinyan was taking advantage of them.
Wu Jinyan couldn’t help but feel embarrassed as the argument escalated.
As Wu Jinyan prepared to retort, Su Han held her hand and shook her head.
Su Han walked gracefully down the stairs, dressed in a fresh and elegant hibiscus embroidered gown. Her voice was pleasant as she said, “These are my purchases for today. Please settle the bill first.”
Su Han handed the items to the clerk at the front desk, who immediately calculated the price. “Miss Su, that will be a total of three thousand six hundred taels.”
“Great, here’s the silver note. Please count it.”
Su Han promptly handed over the money, and the clerk accepted it in front of everyone.
Su Han held the receipt and looked at Ye Zhenzhen. She spoke softly, “Compared to me, you’re not considered family. After all, you’re from the Changxin Marquis’s bloodline. Aunt was even expelled from the Changxin Marquis’s Manor by grandfather a few days ago. Your relationship with Jinyan isn’t close, but I’m her real sister. When I buy things from her, I always settle the accounts immediately. But you have credit. If I hadn’t come today, I wouldn’t have known that Jinyan would allow such behavior to protect the Marquis’s Manor’s reputation.”
Su Han shifted the topic, and the conflict immediately centered on Ye Zhenzhen.
She accused Wu Jinyan of taking advantage of her, but Su Han had paid him in full. Even her sister was paying the same price. Would Wu Jinyan take money from other noble ladies?
As for her credit, it was a joke among the ladies.
The young princess of the Liang Manor chuckled at her. “Ye Zhenzhen, your Marquis’s Manor is wealthy. Why do you need to rely on credit so often? You’re causing Boss Wu a huge loss!”
“That’s right. You bought a heap of jewelry just the other day, and now another pile. I thought the Marquis’s Manor was truly affluent, but it seems it’s all on credit!”
“Look at her all bedecked in jewels. It’s as if she’s worried others won’t notice her wealth! But where does her money truly come from? I wonder how many times she’s relied on credit to make ends meet!”
