Lady Wan Guan

Just as An He left, a maid came from behind.

"Is Doctor Jiang here?"

Jiang Wanning looked back and saw, wasn't this Wen Ying, the maid next to Princess Changping?
"That's me." Jiang Wanning said.

Wen Ying submitted a post: "Her Royal Highness the Princess invites Madam Jiang to come to the house for a banquet."

Jiang Wanning couldn't help but be surprised after reading the post. A banquet at the princess's house was a big event, and she would usually be invited in advance so that people could prepare in advance. It was estimated that the banquet was about to start now, so the invitation to her must be a last-minute decision.

Wen Ying saw her confusion and said: "Today, a nobleman who came to the banquet mentioned you, thinking that you were from the princess's house and wanted to meet you. Her Royal Highness the princess asked the little prince and only then did she know that you were here."

Jiang Wan Ning suddenly realized that this was the case.

"I wonder how many guests were invited to the house today?"

Wen Ying said: "There are only about twenty ladies and twenty young ladies."

"Okay, you go back first, I'll be here after making preparations."

Wen Ying smiled and said, "I'm waiting for Lady Jiang at the main entrance of the Princess Mansion."

As soon as Wen Ying left, Jiang Wanning ordered Xiao Pan: "Xiao Pan, go to Xiangyufang immediately and pick up thirty bottles of soothing incense and thirty sachets of Spring Letter in the Snow."

Xiao Pan responded and went.

Qing Xing said: "Madam, are you going to give it to someone else?"

"It's been a while since Xiangyufang opened, and business has been slow. It's a good time to use the Princess Mansion's banquet to promote it." Jiang Wanning said and went straight to Jiangji Silk and Satin Shop diagonally across the street.

After the first lunar month, the business of the silk and satin shop is booming day by day, and there are many customers in the shop choosing fabrics.

Shopkeeper Zhang Guangsheng saw Jiang Wanning coming and hurriedly came out from behind the counter to greet him: "Little lady..."

"Is my brother here?"

"Yes, in the backyard."

Jiang Wan Ning went to the backyard and saw her brother sitting on the railing, holding a fishing rod and fishing in front of a large water tank in the yard.

Jiang Wan Ning went to the water tank and saw a few goldfish in the water tank. They were leisurely and carefree, turning a blind eye to the bait.

"Brother, you are so free."

Jiang Shi lazily said, "What do you know? I'm just thinking."

"Thinking about how to get Dr. Lin to take your bait?" Jiang Wan Ning teased.

Jiang Shi's old face turned red: "Is it so obvious?"

Jiang Wan Ning laughed: "You look at people with a hook in their eyes, can't you explain it clearly?"

"Then what do you think?"

"That's good. Doctor Lin is calm, down-to-earth, and kind-hearted. But before I say anything ugly, Doctor Lin is my friend. If you are rushing to get married and decide to treat her wholeheartedly, I have no problem with it, but if you It's just a whim... let's stop this idea as soon as possible, otherwise I will never be done with you."

Jiang Shi scratched his neck and said dissatisfied: "Am I the kind of person who always gives up? I'm serious, okay?"

"As long as you are serious, I agree with both hands. By the way, tonight Young Master is hosting a banquet to welcome Mr. Shen and Mr. Qiao from Jiangcheng. I have also been invited, but I may not be able to go. You can go on my behalf. "

Jiang Shi suddenly became interested: "Really? That's good. Si Niang, you go about your business and I'll go for you."

"Don't be empty-handed, remember to bring a gift."

"I need you to remind me, don't worry, I will definitely get the gift."

Jiang Wanning casually mentioned that my brother is not a stingy person.

"Do you still have the pearl brocade in your shop?" "Go and ask Zhang Guangsheng. There should be more. I'm not sure."

Jiang Wan Ning curled her lips, it was the shopkeeper's fault.

Without disturbing his brother and continuing to think about life events, Jiang Wanning went out to ask Zhang Guangsheng for the pearl brocade.

Zhang Guangsheng said there was one left, and Jiang Wanning asked him to pack it up and she would take it away immediately.

Two young girls who were picking out fabrics at the side saw this and came over.

"Shopkeeper, we asked for this pearl brocade first, you have to give it to us first." said the shorter girl.

Zhang Guangsheng said with a smile: "Isn't it too expensive for the two of you just now? Don't you want it?"

"Who said no, we just want to think about it again."

After all, the price of pearl brocade is ridiculously expensive, one piece costs 500 taels, and they are not sold in pieces.

Zhang Guangsheng said kindly: "The rules of our shop are to give it to whoever wants it first. We can't wait for you to think about it. If you think about it for a while and then say no, we won't be able to do business, right?"

The two girls walked away angrily, and the short girl puffed her cheeks and complained: "If my mother hadn't lost a lot of money transporting grain to the north, would she be so angry?"

"Forget it, my aunt didn't expect it to be like this. Even my father didn't expect it. I heard it was all caused by a girl named Jiang."

Jiang Wanning's thoughts changed after hearing this, and she stepped forward and said with a smile: "If you two want this pearl brocade, you can leave your name and address first. When the new goods arrive in the shop, the clerk will notify the house first. I heard, The next batch of pearlescent brocades will be richer and more gorgeous. If I wasn’t in a hurry to use it, I would still want to wait for the next batch!”

The girl's eyes lit up: "Really?"

Jiang Wanning said: "I am an old customer here and I am well-informed."

"Well done, shopkeeper, please remember that my surname is Yu, and my home is in Yu Mansion, Meihua Gate. When the time comes, just ask someone to find Yu Sanniang."

Zhang Guangsheng looked at Jiang Wanning inexplicably, wondering which song the young lady was singing.

Jiang Wan Ning nodded towards him.

Zhang Guangsheng then cooperated and said, "Okay, I'll write it down for you."

The girl happily pulled the tall girl: "Sister Lu, let's go. We will buy it again when the pearl brocade arrives."

Jiang Wanning's doubts were answered. Lu Yiming's sister Lu Shanshan was married to Mr. Yu from the Ministry of Industry, and Yu's house was at Meihuamen.

That Sister Lu should be Lu Yiming's daughter.

It turned out that Lu Shanshan was also transporting grain to the north. She thought she could make a lot of money, but she didn't expect that she would interfere with it.

Zhang Guangsheng said with a bitter face: "Little lady, the next batch of pearl brocade is the same as this batch! How will I explain it to others then?"

Jiang Wanning said: "It doesn't matter. Then we will say that they are late and the good-looking ones have been picked out. Besides, she may not come to buy them."

Didn’t you lose a lot of money?At this moment, I am hesitant to make a decision. What else should I buy?Leaving an address or something is nothing more than a pretense to show that you are not unable to afford it, but rather dissatisfied.

Jiang Wanning went to Princess Changping's Mansion with a piece of pearl brocade and a box of incense.

At this time, Ji Yunchen was waiting at the door of the house.

Today, his mother hosted a banquet and invited more than twenty ladies of the right age to come. How could he not know what the plan was?
A while ago, he laughed at Gu Zhouting for being forced into marriage by his mother, but he didn't expect that such bad luck would happen to him so soon.

He originally wanted to go out and hide, but his mother wanted to invite Jiang Wanning to come.

Then he couldn't leave. He had to keep an eye on Gu Zhouting. If Jiang Wanning was wronged in his house, Gu Zhouting would definitely blame him.

"Wen Ying, are you sure Lady Jiang will come?" Ji Yunchen was waiting anxiously. Wen Ying had been back for a while, but Jiang Wan Ning hadn't arrived yet.

Wen Ying said: "Ms. Jiang personally agreed. She said she would come after a little preparation."
