Mistakenly recognized as a cousin, thousands of pampered

Because of a foot injury, Tao Jiuxi has been able to stay at home quietly for a while.

Time passed quietly, and more than ten days had passed in a flash.

Shen Zhiyi has been away for almost a month.

As the New Year approaches, the business in the store becomes increasingly busy.

Many families ordered the cakes to be eaten during the Chinese New Year early on, and the orders after the New Year were queued up until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

Tomorrow is the end of the year, but Shen Zhiyi has not returned yet.

Tao Jiuxi's foot injury gradually healed. This was her first New Year since she came here, so she naturally took it very seriously.

Early in the morning, she sent people to buy items needed for the New Year, and the house was decorated with joy.

Tao Qingwan and Tao Jiuxi took a carriage to the shops on the street, wanting to buy some new clothes, both for themselves and for the servants in the mansion.

Today, the two went to the famous clothing store in Beijing - Nishangfang.

Tao Jiuxi picked up a red dress, compared it to Tao Qingwan, and asked, "Eldest sister, how about you wear this color too?"

Tao Qingwan shook her head slightly and said, "This color is too red. You really suit this color."

Tao Jiuxi looked at the red dress and thought it was nice. She said, "I think it looks good too. I'll take this one. Let's pick out a few more and wear them during the Lantern Festival."

At this time, Tao Jiuxi felt like a nouveau riche and wanted to buy everything he saw.

Tao Qingwan said, "Please choose more."

"How about this one?" Tao Qingwan was holding a light blue double-breasted dress in her hand, the hem of the dress swaying gently in her hand, and she showed it to Tao Jiuxi.

Tao Jiuxi looked up and saw that the fabric was of high quality, the workmanship extremely meticulous, the stitching fine and even, every detail handled just right. The style was also very exquisite, the light blue hue fresh and elegant, the design of the front was simple and generous, and it was embroidered with exquisite patterns, which made it look lifelike.

Tao Jiuxi nodded immediately, his eyes full of admiration, and said, "This dress is absolutely suitable for my elder sister."

Seeing the two people's interest in the dress, the shopkeeper quickly stepped forward and said with a smile on his face, "Young lady, you have good taste. This is the latest style in our shop. It took three embroiderers half a month to make it, and it's the only one of its kind. It fell in love with you the moment it was hung up. It shows that you really have a connection with this dress."

As the two were talking, a woman suddenly walked into the store, followed by a maid.

When the shopkeeper saw the visitor, he immediately stepped forward to greet him.

As soon as the woman came in, she pointed at a few pieces of clothing arrogantly and asked the shop owner to take them according to her size.

Even from a distance, Tao Jiuxi could clearly feel that momentum.

It wouldn't have been a big deal, but the woman's voice was strangely familiar.

Tao Jiuxi didn't care at first, but then the woman pointed at the clothes Tao Qingwan had chosen and said, "There's also the one she has."

Tao Jiuxi then turned around and looked, and what he saw was amazing.

It turned out to be Zhao Muer, the person who liked to steal people's things and had humiliated her in front of Wangyue Tower.

They really have a bad relationship.

Tao Qingwan held the clothes and stared blankly at the domineering woman in front of her.

Tao Jiuxi immediately stood in front of Tao Qingwan and said, "We already want this set."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Muer raised a sneer at the corner of her mouth, then walked slowly to a chair beside her with an elegant but somewhat arrogant step and sat down lazily.

Upon seeing this, the shopkeeper immediately stepped forward with a very attentive look on his face and poured tea for her himself.

"Who are you?" Cui Liu, her usual minion, stepped forward again.

Perhaps it was because Tao Qingwan was dressed particularly elegantly today that Cui Liu did not recognize Tao Jiuxi.

If Tao Jiuxi said there was someone extremely annoying, the master and servant in front of him would definitely be the first to be mentioned.

"Someone who buys clothes." Tao Jiuxi responded bluntly.

Cui Liu looked at the two women in front of her carefully again.

They were dressed in luxurious clothes and had outstanding looks. However, Cui Liu had seen most of the noble ladies of status in the capital when she went out with Zhao Muer. Seeing that the two people in front of her were very unfamiliar, and they were only accompanied by a maid, she thought they might not be the daughters of merchants who had suddenly become rich.

Then, Cui Liu's tone became more and more impolite. She said, "Our girl likes this dress, so it can only be ours. It's your blessing that our girl can like the same dress as lowly people like you."

As she spoke, Cui Liu suddenly stretched out her hand, pushed Tao Jiuxi away, and hurried to grab the clothes in Tao Qingwan's hand.

Tao Jiuxi really didn't expect that Cui Liu would actually take action before they could even say a few words.

He was not paying attention for a moment and was pushed by Cui Liu, causing him to stagger back several steps.

Tao Qingwan tightly grasped the clothes in her hand and said, "Young lady, please don't be rude."

Cui Liu was a strong girl. Seeing that Tao Qingwan was weak, she pushed her with even more force and pushed Tao Qingwan to the ground.

Tao Jiuxi watched Tao Qingwan being pushed to the ground, and the anger in his heart instantly burned.

Without saying a word, she rushed forward, raised her hand and slapped Cui Liu hard.

"I really gave you face, and you dare to push my sister."

Cui Liu never expected that the merchant girl in front of her would dare to hit her.

She immediately opened her eyes wide in anger and was about to fight back with her teeth bared.

Tao Jiuxi would not tolerate her, she stretched out her hands and grabbed Cui Liu's hair, then slapped her left and right. Then, she used all her strength to push Cui Liu to the ground.

Under the feet of the emperor, this master and servant are still so arrogant. They have never been properly beaten by society.

Cui Liu, who was lying on the ground, struggled to stand up while cursing: "You little bitch, I'm going to tear your mouth apart."

"You are lowly yourself, so you look down on everyone else, you barking dog."

"What did you say? You little bitches."

Tao Jiuxi became angrier as he listened, and he raised his foot and kicked her hard on the shoulder.

"They say you're a dog. Not only are you a dog, but that girl in your family is also a dog."

Zhao Muer was originally sitting there leisurely sipping tea. In her opinion, Cui Liu could usually handle such things easily, and there was no need for her to do it herself.

But today, someone was so bold as to insult her.

She was immediately furious and threw the water cup in her hand.

With a loud snap, the cup shattered, water splashing everywhere and scattering broken pieces of porcelain all over the floor. Then, she stood up angrily, rushed over, and raised her hand to slap Tao Jiuxi.

Tao Jiuxi reacted extremely quickly and raised his hand to block the slap that Zhao Muer was about to throw.

Then, she slapped Zhao Muer back without mercy.

Zhao Muer had never been treated like this before. Although her father was only a fourth-rank official, her grandfather was a second-rank official and was a well-known figure in the capital.

Moreover, she always knew clearly that she would never cause trouble to those ladies whose status was higher than hers. Instead, she would behave well-educated, gentle and generous in front of others.

At this moment, she was angry and annoyed. She covered her painful face and said in disbelief: "You dare to hit me?"
