Adhere to the gentleman's principles

The next day, the weather was even colder as winter approached. Firecrackers were blasted outside the Rouge Shop. Passersby were curious about the newly opened shop, and business was very good.

After noon, two carriages stopped outside the Rouge Shop and two people got off. One was dressed elegantly and looked noble, while the other did not look as good as the former, but was also dressed elegantly.

Yuan Xinghui, Zhao Junning and Feng Lanzhi all looked at the two curiously. Xiao Yumiao was smiling all the time. Zhao Junning, Yuan Xinghui and Feng Lanzhi hurriedly saluted when they saw Xiao Yumiao, "Your Highness the Princess."

Xiao Yumiao said in a gentle tone: "No need to be polite."

Xiao Yumiao looked at Zhao Junning carefully. "Madam, the last time we met was when you first entered the palace. Nine years have passed. Do you still remember me?"

Zhao Junning said slowly, "I have had a good memory since I was a child. The jade pendant on the princess' waist has the words 'princess' engraved on it."

Xiao Yumiao lowered her head to look at her waist and said with a smile: "I was careless. I have only met the three of you a few times before."

Madam Qian walked up to the rouge shop and looked around. "Your Highness, would you like to buy rouge here?"

Xiao Yumiao nodded, "Boss Zhao and I are old acquaintances, so it's only natural for me to support the opening of the new store."

Then he looked up at the plaque, "Taoyao! What a nice name." After Xiao Yumiao and Madam Qian walked into the rouge shop, Zhao Junning, Yuan Xinghui, and Feng Lanzhi stood together. Zhao Junning walked up and asked, "Which one do you like?"

Xiao Yumiao glanced at a row of rouge and pointed at one and said, "This one!"

Madam Qian looked at the name on the rouge and praised: "Tianxiang, your beauty and fragrance are perfect for the princess' temperament."

Xiao Yumiao smiled and said, "I want all of this series from Boss Zhao."

Zhao Junning just waved happily and asked the rouge shop assistant to help pack it up. After seeing off the two guests, Yuan Xinghui and Feng Lanzhi walked up to Zhao Junning and asked, "Why did the princess come to Liangzhou?"

Zhao Junning stared at the two figures moving away, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Ah, to be honest, I'm not sure. But with the princess as a living sign, my rouge shop should have no worries about lack of customers." Hearing this, Yuan Xinghui asked with a puzzled look on her face: "How can you be so confident?"

Zhao Junning nodded confidently and said with a smile, "Of course, didn't you hear what the princess said when she went out just now?"

The two of them fell into deep thought, trying to recall the princess' words. "This rouge is really good, give it a try!" Yuan Xinghui said first.

Zhao Junning shook her head gently, "No."

The two of them pondered it carefully again, "My face is the most delicate." Feng Lanzhi said tentatively.

Zhao Junning nodded with satisfaction. "Who is the princess? She has been loved by everyone since she was a child, and her face is extremely precious. The rouge and powder she usually uses are specially formulated, and this is known to everyone in the entire Wei Dynasty. Today she actually came to me to buy rouge. Doesn't this mean that my rouge has the effect of maintaining skin? Isn't this a living signboard?"

Zhao Junning exhaled lightly, "Wait until tomorrow."

The two looked puzzled, "Tomorrow?"

Zhao Junning smiled and said, "If the princess doesn't come tomorrow, it means my rouge and powder are very good. After all, everyone saw that the princess bought four boxes just now."

After saying that, Zhao Junning turned around and walked into the Rouge Shop, "Everyone has performed well today."

The shop assistants in the Rouge Shop responded in unison: "Thank you for your praise, sir. This is our job."

"Yes, the boss trusts us, and we should do our best."

"We are willing to follow the master, and we will be blessed in the future."

Qian Mansion, "Where have you been, Sister Huang? Why did you buy so much rouge?" Xiao Yufu asked. Xiao Yumiao liked the rouge very much and smiled and said, "I bought it."

Madam Qian stepped forward and saluted, "Ninth Princess, these rouges were bought from a new rouge shop opened by Boss Zhao." Xiao Yufu frowned after hearing this, "Boss Zhao? Could it be Zhao Junning?"

Madam Qian nodded, and Xiao Yufu became even more angry. "Sister Huang, why did you go to her store to buy rouge? Didn't I say I don't like her? Didn't you help me teach her a lesson?"

Xiao Yumiao glanced at Madam Qian and Qian Lou with anger in her eyes, then took Xiao Yufu to the courtyard of Yuelai Restaurant where they were temporarily staying. "Yes, I said I would help you teach her a lesson, but I don't agree with the method you proposed. Her father is a general!"

Then he took a long breath and said, "Before I left, I told you that I would regret it at any time. This time, I told my father the reason why you came out with me."

Seeing that Xiao Yumiao was angry, Xiao Yufu did not dare to act as arrogantly as before. Xiao Yumiao patted Xiao Yufu on the shoulder and said, "Xiao Jiu, I know what you are thinking. You are thinking of using my name to make a scene tomorrow and saying that there is something wrong with Zhao Junning's rouge. I will give up your idea now. Be good these few days and we will go back to the palace after I solve some problems."

Xiao Yumiao said this with a smile, but it made Xiao Yufu shiver. Xiao Yufu nodded slightly, but being obedient was not her nature. Instead of going to the rouge shop to cause trouble, she thought of other ways.
