"Okay, wait a moment, girl." When the vendor selling candied haws saw Xiao Sang's dress, he knew that she must be a maid from a wealthy family. He was very happy, as it was easiest to make money from such people.

Generally, people who have maids would give their maids a lot of silver to buy things, and they wouldn't have to give them change.

The vendor quickly took out three strings of candied haws and was about to hand them to Xiao Sang when they were snatched away by another person.

"We want all these candied haws." A crisp voice sounded, attracting everyone's attention.

Xiao Sang also turned around and saw a woman who was dressed more luxuriously than herself standing next to her, with another luxurious carriage following behind her.

Judging from the logo on the carriage, it is the carriage of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

So this woman is the maid in the Prime Minister’s Mansion?

Although he recognized the other party's identity, he had already spoken. All he had to do was pay the money and he could take the thing away. Naturally, he couldn't let others snatch it away.

"Miss, these three strings are mine." Xiao Sang said, and was about to reach out to take the candied haws that the vendor took down.

However, the maid was faster and snatched the three strings of candied haws directly.

"I told you, I want all these candied haws, including these three strings. Besides, you haven't paid yet, right?

If no money is paid, then anyone can buy it.”

As the maid said this, she took out three taels of silver from her sleeve and handed it directly to the vendor.

"Hey, is this enough to buy these candied haws of yours?"

"That's enough, that's enough." When the vendor saw the three taels of silver, his eyes lit up immediately. He quickly took the silver and put it away, fearing that the other party would go back on his word.

These candied haws were not even worth one or two taels of silver, but he made several times the money by buying three taels of silver.

Seeing that the other party had received the silver, Xiao Shi looked at Xiao Sang proudly, and actually snatched the straw target with the candied haws on it, swung it on her shoulder, and put the three strings of candied haws back on it.

"Hey, how could you do this? I wanted it first." Xiao Sang became anxious when he saw it.

"I've told you, if you haven't paid, the things still belong to the boss. Now that I've paid, they're all mine." Xiao Shi glanced at Xiao Sang with disdain and turned to leave.

"Wait a minute, girl. Look, you can't finish all these candied haws, right? Why don't you sell me three?"

In the past few days, Xiao Sang has figured out Liu Yiyi's temper. She is a very possessive person and she must get what she likes.

Just now she clearly said that she wanted the candied haws from this vendor, and if I didn't buy any, he would definitely punish me.

"Want to buy? Okay, ten taels of silver for a string." Xiao Shi stopped and tilted her head to look at Xiao Sang.

Ten taels of silver for a string? Xiao Sang was stunned.

How can you sell it like this? You might as well just go and rob it!

Xiao Sang stood there in a daze, feeling a little overwhelmed. The Marquis had only given her one or two taels of silver just now, which was not enough to buy her a whole string, let alone one.

"What, you don't want to buy it? Then forget it." Xiao Shi laughed and walked towards the carriage of the Prime Minister's Mansion carrying the straw target, looking arrogant and domineering.

Xiao Sang stood there and opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything. He could only return to the front of the carriage in a dejected manner.

"My lord, Miss Liu, the candied haws from that vendor were snatched away by someone else, and I didn't buy any." Xiao Sang lowered her head, standing outside the carriage, a hint of grievance in her voice.

Liu Yiyi also noticed everything that happened just now, and was very angry. "My Lord, look, whose maid is that? How could she do this?"

Xue Wanxian didn't see what just happened, and looked at Liu Yiyi when he heard this.

"what happened?"

Following the direction Liu Yiyi pointed, he saw the carriage from the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"My lord, Xiao Sang was about to pay for the candied haws, but that maid snatched all of them away." Liu Yiyi looked at Xiao Shi hatefully.

Xiao Shi did not enter the carriage, but stood outside it, with the candied haws straw target on her shoulder very obvious.

"Okay, Yi Yi, let's change one." Seeing that it was the carriage from the Prime Minister's Mansion, Xue Wanxian felt timid.

Although he didn't know who was sitting in the carriage, the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion were not easy to deal with, so it was better to take a step back.

"My Lord, but she did it on purpose. Look at that maid, she was showing off to me. This is obviously a provocation to you, my Lord."

Liu Yiyi couldn't stand it anymore. She couldn't go out and couldn't go to the Heavenly Palace to eat. That would have been fine, but now, she just wanted to buy a candied haws, but it was snatched away by someone else.

She really couldn't swallow this anger!

"Yiyi, that's the carriage of the Prime Minister's Mansion. The people in the Prime Minister's Mansion are not easy to mess with. I'll ask someone to buy you a straw target candied haws later, okay?"

Xue Wanxian naturally knew that the fault was not theirs, and the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion obviously did it on purpose, but he could not confront them.

"My lord, how could you do this?" Liu Yiyi became even more dissatisfied when she saw Xue Wanxian's slightly timid look.

Seeing Liu Yiyi's tears streaming down his face, Xue Wanxian felt so distressed.

"My Lord, I don't care. I want to eat the candied haws on the straw target. I don't care. Besides, if the child wants to eat it, I can't control myself at all."

Liu Yiyi cried and her tears streamed down her face, looking extremely aggrieved.

Xiao Sang naturally heard the voices inside, so he spoke up in time.

"My Lord, the girl just said that she wants ten taels of silver for one string. I don't have enough silver on me. Perhaps, if I pay ten taels of silver, the girl will sell it to me."

When Xue Wanxian heard this, he quickly took out twenty taels of silver from the purse around his waist and threw it out, saying sternly, "Go quickly!"

"Yes." Xiao Sang took the silver and trotted to Xiao Shi.

The carriage from the Prime Minister's Mansion did not move away, but just stayed there, as if waiting for her to come and buy candied haws.

"Miss, here are twenty taels of silver. Please give me two strings of candied haws." Xiao Sang took out twenty taels of silver and quickly handed it to Xiao Shi.

"It's too late. The price of candied haws has gone up. A string costs thirty taels of silver." Xiao Shi glanced at the silver in Xiao Sang's hand.

"Ah? Thirty taels of silver for a string?" Even though Xiao Sang was ready to accept her embarrassment, he really didn't expect the other party to raise the price, and it was so high.

"What's wrong? Now I have bought this candied haws. It is the candied haws of my Prime Minister's Mansion. Can the candied haws of the Prime Minister's Mansion be priced the same as other candied haws?"

"You, you..." Xiao Sang took two steps back and looked at Xiao Shi in disbelief.

This is probably one of the most prosperous and lively streets in the capital. When people saw the quarrel happening here, they quickly gathered around.

Everyone also realized that Xiaoshi was deliberately making things difficult for Xiaosang, and they kept pointing fingers at Xiaoshi. However, Xiaosang was fearless and didn't care at all about the opinions of those around her.
