You confiscated my property, I exiled you, why are you crying when the treasury is empty?

Zhan Beiwang frowned instantly, "Aning, actually those..."

Su Wanning knew what he was going to say, but she immediately interrupted him, "Zhan Beiwang!"

Zhan Beiwang immediately fell silent, nodded steadily, and signaled with his eyes that whatever Su Wanning said was what he meant.

He handed the menu to Su Wanning, "This is the menu of the inn. See if there is anything you want to eat. If not, we can go out and walk around the city."

She took the menu and said, "Let's eat at the inn. We don't want to have to run back and forth anymore."

She had been riding in a carriage for everything these past two days, and she didn't want to ride in a carriage anymore. Even when she went out, she planned to walk around.

After dinner, Su Wanning suggested going out for a walk to see what was being sold in the city.

After leaving the inn, they looked at the streets on both sides and saw a lot of hawking sounds. They just turned right. They had plenty of time anyway.

As she walked, she came to a jewelry shop with several carriages parked at the door. She had never been to this kind of jewelry shop before, and she happened to come across it today, so she walked straight in.

The waiter in the store came over immediately and looked at Zhan Beiwang behind Su Wanning, "What would you like to buy, madam?"

Su Wanning didn't explain, "Just take a look."

After hearing what Su Wanning said, the waiter took another look at what the two were wearing, his expression less enthusiastic than before. "Madam, if you find anything you like, please call me."

Su Wanning nodded, her eyes swept across the jewels, and finally stopped at a pair of earrings that the shopkeeper was showing to others.

She fell in love with the pair of earrings at first sight, but looking at the person in front of the shopkeeper, she seemed to be dressed like a young lady in the city, so she didn't know if she would buy them.

The young lady looked embarrassed and noticed Su Wanning standing beside her. She looked disdainful and asked, "What are you looking at? You think you can buy jewelry when you're dressed like this?"

Su Wanning looked at the clothes on her body. They were quite comfortable, except that they were not fancy clothes.

He rolled his eyes at the young lady and said, "You speak as if you can afford it."

The young lady in front of her twisted her handkerchief vigorously with both hands. This pile of earrings was indeed more than her monthly allowance. "Boss, I'm a regular customer, can't you give me a discount?"

The shopkeeper smiled awkwardly and closed the box in his hand. "This pair of red agate diamond-shaped gold pendants is new to our Jinbao Pavilion from a foreign land. We only have this pair, and twenty-five taels is already the lowest price."

The young lady in front of him glanced at the box containing the earrings and said, "Boss, please keep them for me. I'll go back and find a solution."

The shopkeeper smiled but said nothing. If there was a customer who could afford it, he would naturally sell it to him.

After the young lady left, Su Wanning walked up to the shopkeeper.

"Sir, have you found any jewelry that suits your taste?" The shopkeeper took the box in his hand and prepared to put it back on the cabinet.

"Let me see the pair of earrings in your hand." Su Wanning pointed to the box in the shopkeeper's hand.

The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment and looked at Su Wanning's attire, but thinking that there was no one in the lobby anyway, he put it on the counter and opened it to show Su Wanning.

Su Wanning picked up one of them and held it in her hand. The patterns inlaid with gold on it were also very delicate. Although she didn't have her ears pierced, she still wanted to buy it directly.

Zhan Beiwang saw that Su Wanning was indeed very pleased, and looked at the shopkeeper, "There should be matching jewelry, take them out."

The shopkeeper looked at the two of them, and when he saw Zhan Beiwang nodded affirmatively, he took out a small box from the bottom of the cabinet behind him.

He thought that the two of them must be just curious and wanted to take a look, but without asking anything, he just opened it in front of them.

Su Wanning had been looking at the shopkeeper without blinking since Zhan Beiwang mentioned that there were matching jewelry. When she saw the matching bracelets and pearl hairpins in the box, she fell in love with them at first sight.

The shopkeeper didn't notice it at first, Su Wanning took the bracelet and put it directly on her hand. The shopkeeper was about to speak.

"I bought it." Su Wanning said casually, but her eyes were always fixed on the thing in her hand.

The shopkeeper opened his mouth in shock and was speechless for a long time until Zhan Beiwang spoke again, "How much silver do you want? We'll buy it."

The shopkeeper immediately took out his abacus and began to calculate. "Sir, the total is ninety taels of silver. This is already a discounted price."

Zhan Beiwang directly took out a silver note of 100 taels and handed it to the shopkeeper, "Use the remaining 10 taels to buy her some things."

The shopkeeper took the banknote and nodded repeatedly. It was the first time he had seen such a generous customer. There were wealthy families in the city, but this was not the capital, and few people would spend such a high price just to buy a set of jewelry.

She quickly helped Su Wanning match a few more pieces of jewelry and asked, "Should we have these delivered to your house?"

Zhan Beiwang reached out and took the box. "I'll take it."

The shopkeeper showed disappointment on his face. He thought that another rich family had moved into the city and that they were probably just passing by.

Just as she was about to leave, she saw two people walking towards her from the door. She hadn't seen Li Jingyu and Liu Yan'er for a long time. She thought they had left directly after arriving in Lingnan, and she didn't expect to meet them here.

"We meet again." Li Jingyu looked at Su Wanning and narrowed his eyes.

"Then I'm really unlucky today." Su Wanning glared at him and was about to leave.

But Li Jingyu grabbed his arm and said, "I helped you solve a problem."

Su Wanning looked at Li Jingyu with a puzzled look on her face. "Thank you for your hard work. Don't help me next time."

"Is this how you repay Brother Yu for helping you?" Liu Yan'er sneered from the side.

"No, why are you everywhere?" Su Wanning looked at Li Jingyu, "How come she's still alive after all this time?"

Li Jingyu smiled but said nothing. Liu Yan'er looked at Zhan Beiwang aggrievedly, "Cousin, I didn't expect Sister Wan Ning to be so vicious."

"Vicious? I don't think so." Zhan Beiwang said in a cold tone, but his eyes avoided Liu Yan'er and looked outside.

Su Wanning clicked her tongue twice and said, "Watch your woman carefully and don't seduce her with that kind of eyes all the time." After saying that, she walked around the two of them and left.

Liu Yan'er was stunned. "Brother Yu, I don't have any."

But Li Jingyu slapped her on the spot and said, "Yan'er, this kind of thing can't happen again next time, otherwise you know the result." Then he hugged Liu Yan'er and went upstairs.

At this time, a young lady came down from upstairs and asked, "Boss, did the two people who bought jewelry just now move here from somewhere else?"

"Miss Zhang, are you satisfied today?" The shopkeeper smiled flatteringly, but when he saw Zhang Siyu looking out the door, he realized what she was thinking. "I haven't heard of anyone settling down in the city recently. I guess they're just passing through."
