"Princess, this is Yunxiufang. Many of the clothes of the young ladies of official families are made here. Would you like to take a look?"

Fu Yue pointed to a shop in front, where many different kinds of fabrics were hung outside.

"have a look."

Fu Yue said that her clothes were all made in the palace and then sent directly to the princess's mansion, and the fabrics used were the best.

Having received the consent of her own princess, Fu Yue smiled and talked to her about the more popular fabrics here.

When the shopkeeper saw the two people coming in, he hurried over to greet them. Judging from their clothes, they didn't look like ordinary people. Maybe they were important customers.

"Miss, what kind of fabric would you like to see?" the shopkeeper asked with a smile.

"What is the best fabric here? Please introduce it to me." Fu Yue responded.

"Come in and take a look, young lady. I will introduce them to you one by one."

The shopkeeper took them into the store, where there were some rare and precious fabrics.

"This is Moonlight Brocade, which is made up of arrays of colored gold threads arranged in a gradual transition of colors. It is as colorful as a rainbow after the rain.

When you wear it, it will create a series of colorful stripes, which is very beautiful." The shopkeeper picked up a piece of cloth and showed it carefully.

"This is floating light brocade, exquisite and luxurious. The magic of floating light brocade is that when it is illuminated by the morning sun, its brilliance flickers and becomes unique."

"This is a swallow-feathered cup. It has a simple color, an antique flavor, a glittering surface, and a transition of colors. It is loved by many housekeepers..."

The shopkeeper knew these fabrics very well and introduced them very naturally, and even allowed them to feel the texture of the fabrics with their hands.

Listening to him introduce several kinds of fabrics, all of which were very good, Yan Jiaojiao gestured to Fu Yue.

Fu Yue understood and took out some silver and handed it to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, we want all these. Please send them to the princess's mansion."

The shopkeeper's hand trembled as he took the silver. Princess's Mansion? There is only one princess in the current dynasty, so isn't the one in front of him the eldest princess?

Hearing that the eldest princess was reckless, arrogant and willful, the shopkeeper hurriedly prepared to pay his respects.

"Princess, I am blind and fail to recognize a great man..." The shopkeeper wanted to say something else.

Yan Jiaojiao simply waved her hand: "No need to be polite, I'm just out for a stroll."

Only after he had escorted the two people out the door and watched them walk away did the shopkeeper breathe a sigh of relief. He went back and hurriedly ordered that the cloth be delivered to the princess's mansion as soon as possible without delay.

"Fu Yue, I'm tired. Let's go find a place to rest in front." Yan Jiaojiao hadn't walked like this for a long time and felt a little tired.

"Then let's go to the teahouse and sit for a while. The teahouse is in front." Fu Yue was quite familiar with this place. The famous teahouse was in front.

"Host, you are too weak. We never get tired when we go shopping. Shopping is the happiest thing for us."

Cha Cha said teasingly when she saw that she was a little out of breath.

"If I wasn't afraid of being too conspicuous, I wouldn't have come down at all." Yan Jiaojiao said very confidently.

Cha Cha: "..."

Fu Yue asked for a private room on the second floor and asked the waiter to bring up some food.

The private room and the main room were only separated by a screen and were not soundproof, so one could hear people talking next door.

"Hey, have you heard? Recently, a very talented woman came to the capital. She can recite poems and compose couplets at any time. She is very talented and is highly sought after by scholars in the capital."

"Is it true? Or is she a girl? Who is she?"

"Of course it's true. How could I lie to you?"

"Have you ever seen her? Words alone are not enough."

"You know what? Today is the perfect time. You'll be able to hear her perform on stage later. I guarantee it will amaze you."

"And I heard that this woman behaves very uninhibitedly and is not afraid of the world's eyes."

"This sounds very new. I'd like to see what kind of woman she is."

……

Yan Jiaojiao took a sip of hot tea and listened quietly to the discussion next door.

"Host, the strange woman they are talking about is a person from another world. She is now doing very well and is very popular, especially because she can write many picture books."

"Are you talking about her?" Yan Jiaojiao was originally in a state of watching the show, but she was caught off guard to find that it was actually related to her mission.

"Yes, host, you can take a look at her here so that you can be mentally prepared."

Yan Jiaojiao didn't think it was a big deal, but knowing yourself and your enemy will ensure victory in every battle, so it wouldn't hurt to take a look.

Soon, I heard the owner of the teahouse set up the table in the middle and placed a screen in the middle so that the faces of the people inside could not be seen clearly.

"Everyone, our storytelling session today is about to begin. Please keep quiet. Now we would like to invite our storyteller, Ms. Su."

A woman dressed as a scholar came onto the stage, with her hair naturally tied up like a man's. At first glance, she looked a bit like a man, but she had a petite figure and a pretty face. If you looked carefully, you could still tell she was a woman.

"Host, this is Su Zhuqing. She used to dress up as a man on stage. But one time, her hair accidentally fell loose, and everyone knew she was a woman."

Su Zhuqing was holding a thick book in his hand and cleared his throat.

Everyone has been looking forward to it for a long time and can't help but feel a little anxious.

"Miss Su, what is the picture book we are going to talk about today?"

"Yeah, what is today?"

"Everyone, please be patient. Today I will tell you about the third chapter of eloping with the poor scholar."

"Continuing from the last chapter, we have talked about the eldest daughter of a merchant family. By chance, she saved a scholar. Seeing that he was pitiful, she brought him back home. The scholar was very grateful to her, and the two of them secretly fell in love.

"Unfortunately, the good times didn't last long. The eldest lady's father refused to agree to this matter and wanted to find her a man of equal status to end her dream. So the scholar asked the eldest lady if she was willing to leave with him and live a poor life."

"The young lady was moved by the scholar's determination to not give in to the temptation of money, so she agreed to his proposal. The two of them found a dark and windy night and eloped to a small village far away from the capital."

"At first, they could only make a living by selling the eldest lady's jewelry. In order to save money for the two of them, the eldest lady changed her pampered lifestyle and cooked for the scholar every day, just so that the scholar could study with peace of mind. Even though her hands were covered with blisters, she felt full of happiness."

"Do you think their love story is touching?"

“Touching.”

"It's so touching. With such a loving wife, even the hard times are sweet."

Everyone agreed.

"Are you curious about what happened to them later?" Su Zhuqing deliberately kept everyone in suspense.
