Chapter 27

When Lu Zhaozhao finally had enough of the intimate time with the Marquis' wife, she acted as if she had just realized something, "Ah! Sister Yao, I'm so sorry. My aunt and I didn't mean to talk to you. We were just a little too engrossed in the conversation just now. Please don't blame me, sister."

This pit was dug, how can Luo Shuiyao respond? Can she even say that she cares?

She could only put on a perfect smile and said, "No, you talk to your aunt, and I'll just listen to you."

She was already 30% certain that the heroine's character had collapsed, but she didn't know whether it had collapsed from the beginning or because of her.

She was still a little skeptical yesterday, but today it’s confirmed. She is now trying her best not to provoke the heroine, hoping that the heroine will see that she is harmless and stop targeting her!

Alas! She felt a little tired, and sighed silently in her heart.

The Marquis's wife felt a little uncomfortable looking at Luo Shuiyao standing quietly. She didn't mean to ignore this girl, it was just that this girl was too quiet, and she would forget she was still beside her if she wasn't paying attention.

She coughed uncomfortably twice and waved to Luo Shuiyao, "Yaoyao, come here. Auntie will take you to buy some clothes."

Luo Shuiyao immediately stepped forward upon hearing the voice. She also wanted to imitate the heroine and hold the marquis's wife's arm. She stretched out her hand, hesitated for a moment, and finally retracted it.

The Marquis's wife saw her outstretched hand, and also saw her hesitant to retract it. She stretched out her arm in front of Luo Shuiyao and said, "Come, support your aunt. She is old and can't walk anymore."

"How could it be, auntie! You are so beautiful and so young, people would believe you were my sister!" Luo Shuiyao feigned displeasure when she heard the Marquis's words.

The Marquis's wife was amused by her little expression, and the fine lines at the corners of her eyes deepened a little from laughing.

Luo Shuiyao was not trying to please the Marquis' wife. The Marquis' wife was less than forty years old and had taken good care of herself, so she looked like she was in her twenties.

You have to know that she was not young in her previous life, and she really felt that the Marquis's wife was like her own sister.

Luo Shuiyao looked at the happy face of the Marquis' wife and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that her idea was right. If you rush to ask for something from others, they will think you are greedy. If others chase you to give something to you, it means you are honest and easy to be content.

Well, her role from now on is clear.

Luo Shuiyao walked out of the mansion with the Marquis' wife, and naturally did not notice that Lu Zhaozhao was staring at her back with eyes that seemed to be filled with poison.

Capital City, Suzaku Street.

Luo Shuiyao and Lu Zhaozhao sat on the left and right of Madam Hou. Lu Zhaozhao and Madam Hou talked about her mother's past. Luo Shuiyao leaned against the wall of the car bored.

The carriage was very spacious, so the three of them did not feel crowded.

Hearing the endless shouting outside, Luo Shuiyao curiously lifted a corner of the car curtain to look outside, and was shocked.

The streets outside were bustling with traffic, the roads were wide, and there were many street vendors selling everything, things she had seen and hadn't seen before, which dazzled her.

Suzaku Street is the most prosperous commercial street in Kyoto. Almost all the shops are located here, including restaurants, treasure houses, tailor shops, and there is a constant stream of people coming and going. Luo Shuiyao calls it an ancient version of a commercial street.

The carriage stopped at the door of a magnificent small building. The maid helped several people get off the carriage. Luo Shuiyao looked at the three-story building in front of her, and her eyes were filled with shock that could not be concealed.

Oh my god! This is too luxurious! I really want to let those modern people who brag about the high-end luxury stores see that the luxury stores of our ancestors were even more upscale, okay?

Lu Zhaozhao glanced at her and rolled his eyes in disdain seeing her country bumpkin look. She was really a country girl he had never met before.

Luo Shuiyao accidentally saw Lu Zhaozhao's eyes and couldn't help but sneer. Well! She is a little worldly-wise!

As soon as they entered the Treasure Pavilion, the waiter came to greet them happily.

"My two guests, what are you looking at today?"

Luo Shuiyao and the maids following behind were completely ignored by the waiter.

Luo Shuiyao didn't care. It was normal for the waiters in such a shop to look down on her. She was dressed in ordinary clothes, almost like a maid. People could tell that she couldn't afford anything just by looking at her clothes, so naturally they were unwilling to even give her a second glance.

Unlike Madam Hou and Lu Zhaozhao, who were elegantly dressed, wore exquisite jewelry and makeup, and looked like wealthy ladies.

The Treasure Pavilion sells a wide variety of women's jewelry, including a wide variety of gold hairpins, silver ornaments, and jewelry head ornaments.

To make it easier for everyone to view, these jewelries are placed in cabinets, covered with glass-like objects, just like modern jewelry display cabinets.

Seeing this scene, she was really surprised. Her eyes fell on the glass cabinet, and seeing that no one noticed her, she reached out and knocked lightly.

Yes, it is glass for sure. This era is a bit similar to the Tang Dynasty. There was glass in the history of the Tang Dynasty, but it was not called glass but called colored glaze.

Logically speaking, it should be a very precious thing. Could it be that it is like this because the world is created by a novel?

Luo Shuiyao thought about it with some surprise, but it was just a thought. She was lazy and had no intention of exploring the reason.

"Yaoyao, come here," the Marquis's wife looked back and found that Luo Shuiyao was left behind alone, so she called to her.

Luo Shuiyao walked forward slowly. The Marquis's wife's face was full of concern, and her eyes were tender. She quickly reached out and held her hand.

Then, the waiter, with a smile on his face and slightly bent over, respectfully led them to a counter.

There were various kinds of pearl flowers on the counter. He took out a few of them quickly and placed them carefully on the counter.

"Madam, this is the latest model of pearl flowers from our Treasure Pavilion. It is perfect for young ladies of your age."

The Marquis's wife leaned forward slightly, looking intently at the pearl flowers on the counter. She picked up a pink and purple pair, gestured to Luo Shuiyao a few times, nodded with satisfaction, and put them directly on Luo Shuiyao's head.

He took out another pair of turquoise ones and put them on Lu Zhaozhao's head. He turned to the waiter and said, "I want these two. If you have any other styles in your store, please show them to me."

When the waiter saw the lady take the two pearl flowers so quickly and neatly, his eyes lit up instantly and his mouth widened, he was so happy that he couldn't stop grinning.

His face was filled with a flattering smile that seemed to be overflowing. His eyes narrowed into slits, and he said ingratiatingly, "Madam, you have good taste! This floor is filled with small ornaments like pearls and flowers that young women love. Why don't you move to the second floor? There are some hairpins, hairpins, step-shake ornaments, jade pendants, etc. of even better quality. Would you like to go up and take a look, Madam?"

As he spoke, he slightly turned sideways, stretched out a hand, and made a gesture of invitation.

"Cousin, why are you here at the Treasure Pavilion to choose jewelry?" The Marquis's wife was about to nod when she heard a familiar voice.
