Chapter 1063: Refuse (10,000 updates) Chapter 1063: Refuse (10,000 updates) The next morning, right after breakfast, the shopkeeper of the fabric store personally brought along a young girl and two embroidery ladies to visit.
Noticing that the address was correct and the young girl had a very familiar deanor with Lin Yuan and the others, the shopkeeper imdiately confird that this fourteen or fifteen-year-old young girl was indeed the adopted sister of the Third Prince, as rumored.
Having lived in the Capital city for many years, the shopkeeper had sharp eyes and noticed at once that Lin Yuan was no ordinary person; his smile deepened.
Lin Yuan was indifferent to the shopkeeper’s attentiveness, but it made Lady Liu sowhat uncomfortable.
Since asurents were needed, Lin Yuan had called out the entire family, which of course included Lao Fan.
Seeing Lao Fan’s drooping face made Lin Yuan chuckle; the desperation in his eyes was shining through, yet he still pretentiously made excuses.
He really was like an old child.
Once Butler Zhou and the young servants had moved the purchased fabrics and garnts into the house, the atmosphere beca even livelier.
Xiao Linshuang was the first to wrap her arms around a roll of rust-red Auspicious Hundred Fortunes fabric she had selected, excitedly smiling at Lao Fan, “Master, Master, isn’t this fabric beautiful?
I picked it out especially for you!”
Upon hearing this, Lao Fan eagerly widened his eyes and humd noncommittally through his nose, sparing his words like gold, “Good.”
He seed aloof, but his increasingly upright mustache betrayed his true feelings.
Xiao Linshuang smiled and pouted, addressing the shopkeeper, “Shopkeeper, please take my master’s asurents first, then my father’s.
Um, make this one for my master, and this one for my dad.”
Saying this, she set aside the roll of Auspicious Hundred Fortunes fabric and a roll of light blue cloud-patterned fabric.
The shopkeeper nodded continuously, inwardly marveling at how a child so young could speak so confidently and effortlessly, without the timidity typical of common children.
No wonder she was recognized as the adopted sister of a prince while being a commoner; this family was truly exceptional.
While the n’s clothes were quickly settled, the most troubleso turned out to be the won’s.
Watching the sisters excitedly discussing around Lady Liu, Lin Yuan also agreed with Xiao Linshuang’s suggestion, “Shopkeeper, please asure my grandfather and my dad first.
As for us, we’ll need you to wait a bit more.”
“It’s no trouble at all, no trouble.
It is our honor to make dresses for the young lady,” the shopkeeper responded with eager smiles, leaving Lin Yuan sowhat baffled.
She knew so of the rumors from Ma Junying’s mouth, but she didn’t take them seriously, considering there were many nobles in the Capital city.
What she didn’t realize was that for the common people, becoming the adopted sister of a prince was decidedly comndable.
After yesterday’s interaction, the young girl beca more familiar with Lin Yuan and her group.
Seeing them again today made her all the more relaxed.
While matching various brightly colored fabrics against Lady Liu and the young ladies and voicing her opinions, she created quite a lively scene.
Despite the vibrant colors Lin Yuan and the others chose, Lady Liu still felt darker colors suited her better and eventually chose a lotus-colored fabric embroidered with tiny flowers, causing the children to rather disdain it.
However, the young girl’s words were more pleasing.
While asuring Lady Liu, she smiled and said, “Madam’s skin is so fair, this color suits you best.
If it were anyone else, they surely couldn’t match your elegance.”
Such sweet-talking made Lady Liu laugh with sheer delight.
Observing from the side, the shopkeeper silently praised the young girl’s performance, thankful for the careful instructions he had given her on the way here.
Lin Yuan did notice all this and couldn’t help but laugh.
Yesterday, the young girl was straightforward with them, but now she had quickly acquired a slick manner—truly, the Capital city was exceptional, showing just from a small fabric store how the major households managed affairs.
Just then, Butler Zhou rushed into the house, announcing that Tian Hui had brought the finest embroidery lady from Red Smoke Pavilion to tailor dresses for the young ladies.
Hearing the words “Red Smoke Pavilion,” both the shopkeeper and the young girl were sowhat startled.
With Tian Hui’s arrival, Lin Yuan naturally wouldn’t make her wait; she quickly asked Butler Zhou to invite her in.
As the butler left, Lady Liu stopped her asurents and called on Lin Yuan and the others to prepare for receiving the guest.
