Taking a break from his busy schedule, Xiao Jingting took Xu Muan around big merchant houses.
“What nonsense are you talking about? Why would I need a storage bracelet? I stay at home all day and have nowhere to go, so what do I need this for?” Xu Muan stood in front of the counter and helplessly shook his head at Xiao Jingting next to him.
“It can help you store up things!” Xiao Jingting said.
Xu Muan shook his head and said, “But I have nothing to store up.”
Xiao Jingting and Xu Muan looked at the storage bracelet at the merchant’s ground floor counter, when a woman wearing a green dress came down from upstairs.
“Miss Sun, do you really not want this Thrasher Cloud Gauze Garment? It’s a rare Thrasher yarn, warm in winter and cool in summer and costs only two thousand taels of silver, so it is actually not very expensive.” A receptionist followed behind the woman.
Xiao Jingting subconsciously looked behind him and discovered that Miss Sun was Sun Miaomiao.
When Sun Miaomiao saw Xiao Jingting, her face became hot.
The receptionist who entertained Xiao Jingting smiled lightly and said, “Young Master Xiao, this storage bracelet, do you want me to wrap it up for you?”
“We’ll pass. Thanks,” said Xu Muan.
“We’ll take it. No need to pack it.” Xiao Jingting took the storage bracelet and put it on Xu Muan’s hand.
“Master Xiao, you are a gold member, a total of nine thousand five hundred taels.”
Xiao Jingting very readily paid the silver.
“Young Master Xiao, your business is so big now. 9000 taels of silver for you is now a drop in the ocean.”
Xiao Jingting smiled bitterly and said, “What are you talking about? It’s just a small business. It’s just enough to make a living.”
Sun Miaomiao looked at the bracelet on Xu Muan’s hand and felt like her eyes were being burned by the bright bracelet.
Xiao Jingting said to Xu Muan, “Let’s look at other things.”
“Xiao Jingting.” Sun Miaomiao said in a loud voice.
Xiao Jingting turned his head and looked at Sun Miaomiao, asking “Sister-in-law, what’s the matter?”
Sun Miaomiao pointed to the Thrasher Cloud Gauze Garment in the hands of the receptionist behind her and said, “I like it. Buy it for me.”
Xiao Jingting was stunned. Miss Sun was famous for being unruly and capricious. However, Xiao Jingting heard that after Sun Miaomiao married Xiao Muhong, she had restrained herself a lot. But now it seemed she hadn’t restrained herself at all. Ah!
“Sister-in-law, I don’t have enough silver with me, if you want to buy it, you better find cousin Xiao Muhong. My family will have another member soon, so I need to make more money and support my family.” Xiao Jingting said sincerely.
Sun Miaomiao was filled with anger, “Xiao Jingting, you used to say that if I liked something, you would buy it for me even if you lose all your money. Didn’t you mean what you said?”
Xiao Jingting, “…” That was what the original body owner said! Well, he had nowhere to complain since he now occupied the body of the original owner. Sun Miaomiao could be regarded as open-minded to say such things in public and was not afraid of Xiao Muhong having any hard feelings.
“Sister-in-law, I was still young and spoke without thinking. Now things have changed and you are married to my cousin, so don’t mention the past.”
Xu Muan tugged at Xiao Jingting sleeve and said, “Let’s go first.”
Xiao Jingting nodded and said, “Yes!”
Sun Miaomiao watched Xiao Jingting pull Xu Muan away, her face turning pale.
Noticing that many people around her looked at her, Sun Miaomiao couldn’t help becoming a little bit irritated, “What are you looking at?”
Sun Miaomiao threw her sleeves and left furiously.
After Xiao Jingting walked out of the merchant shop, he carefully looked behind them and then said relieved, “She didn’t follow us.”
“Afraid of her?” Xu Muan was a little amused.
Xiao Jingting nodded his head, saying, “A little bit.” It looked like Xiao Muhong was not able to control Sun Miaomiao anymore.
“When you saw her before, you got so weak-legged that you couldn’t even walk.” Xu Muan said.
Xiao Jingting, “…”
……
The fact that Sun Miaomiao had asked Xiao Jingting to buy her clothes in public and was refused, quickly reached Xiao Muhong’s ears.
Liu Xian said angrily, “Son, your wife is too unruly.”
Xiao Muhong’s face was so dark, he didn’t say a word.
The relationship between him and Sun Miaomiao became more and more strained as the business of beverage shop became better and better. He had hoped that the newly opened beverage shops would take up the business of Xiao Jingting’shop. But, unexpectedly, those beverage shops’ business was so poor that they posed no threat at all.
Sun Miaomiao was a young lady of the Sun family, who was used to spending a lot of money. Now that the second house was in power, they suppressed them a lot in terms of accounting and administration. Different ways of making money were all transferred to the third and fourth house so Liu Xian had to cut down her expenses repeatedly.
“I didn’t expect it to be like this.” Sun Miaomiao had always been unruly but she was restrained a lot after she married him. Many of Xiao Muhong’s friends praised him for his ability. The miss of the Sun family became more tender after marrying him. Now he was afraid that he had become a laughing stock among his friends.
Xiao Muhong took a deep breath. Sun Miaomiao probably regretted doing such a thing in the public. Xiao Jingting’s shop earned the income of several thousand taels a day, so it was no wonder that Sun Miaomiao was tempted.
“It seems that Sun Miaomiao bumped into Xiao Jingting in the store when he was buying a storage bracelet for Xu Muan. Xiao Jingting, this guy, showed off that he could earn some money when he doesn’t know how to cultivate, but knows to spend indiscriminately. I don’t think he can make a name for himself.” Liu Xian was full of vicious curses.
Xiao Muhong looked at Liu Xian’s angry expression and said, “Mother, just calm down.” The pressure that Liu Xian was facing recently was very high, making her look haggard.
“These two little brats.” Liu Xian cursed in a hateful voice. Had she known that it would turn like this, she would have done whatever it took to get those two bastards killed out there.
“I’m back.” Sun Miaomiao walked into the room and gave a faint greeting to the two people inside.
Looking at Sun Miaomiao’s indifferent appearance, Liu Xian’s anger came out. Only thinking of relying on the Sun family behind Sun Miaomiao made Liu Xian swallow the anger in her heart forcibly.
