The hall of the general's mansion was filled with all kinds of bright red fabrics, and precious brocades and silks were placed in piles.

Princess Jingyang took An Yan to choose, and from time to time she picked up a piece of cloth and tried it on her.

In order to close this deal, the merchants eloquently promoted their own fabrics, which dazzled An Yan.

"Princess, Miss An, why don't you take a look at this piece of shark silk? This kind of shark silk is hard to find in the world, especially one with such a pure color. Look, it's light and thin, and it shimmers with color. Even without sunlight, it's still dazzling. It also has a hazy beauty that perfectly sets off Miss An's beauty."

Princess Jingyang took it and looked at it. It was true, and she couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction.

The lady boss took advantage of the situation and showed them a piece of ready-made clothing. "Princess, this is the workmanship of our shop's tailor. It can be considered top-notch."

"Yanyan, do you like it?"

An Yan naturally liked it and felt a sense of familiarity. The wedding dress she wore in her previous life was made of shark silk, which she really liked.

Princess Jingyang generously placed her order on the spot, and the proprietress excitedly knelt down to express her gratitude. "Thank you, Your Highness, for giving me this opportunity to repay you. Yunshanfang will live up to your trust and will make a one-of-a-kind wedding dress to make Miss An the most beautiful bride!"

"Repay a favor?" Princess Jingyang asked doubtfully.

Her gratitude was beyond words, and she bowed her head devoutly. "Yes, I went to Beisi with the head of the family years ago to search for the unique Moon Shadow Veil, but unfortunately, we encountered war and were trapped in Beisi and bullied."

"But that day, General Rong descended from the sky like a divine warrior, like a savior. With one swipe of his spear, he slew the thief and saved us from danger. We will never forget General Rong's kindness."

"But the general is so distinguished, and I, a humble woman, have little influence. I wonder what I can do for him. I heard that you are getting married soon, so I came here in person. I hope to do my best to help you."

The performance was so exaggerated that it was almost too much to watch. An Yan frowned and glanced over, only to find that everyone, including Princess Jingyang, was deeply moved and was speechless for a moment.

Qin Yue'e, Wang Dafu's wife and the original owner's biological mother, An Yan actually saw it early on, but she just didn't take it to heart.

She did not suppress them deliberately, but actually gave them the opportunity to get close to the general's mansion. This shark silk is unique to their family.

Qin Yue'e kowtowed again and said, "It is my great honor to be able to make wedding clothes for the general and his future wife. I will not accept any reward. I would like to give them to the general and congratulate him on his wedding."

Princess Jingyang had her maid help Qin Yue'e up, and said comfortingly, "You are a person who knows how to repay a favor. I know that your business is not easy, so I just want to make the clothes more beautiful. How could I really let you spend too much money?"

The two of them refused, but Qin Yue'e remained firm in her refusal, so Princess Jingyang had no choice but to agree, thinking of adding it to the reward.

In this small shopping fair, Qin Yue'e's Yunshanfang took the lead, making other shops look dim. Several of the shops were old-established in the capital, but they were overshadowed by this little-known shop.

They were unhappy and looked at Qin Yue'e with unfriendly eyes, but she was still immersed in the joy of winning the order and did not notice it. An Yan certainly would not be kind enough to remind her.

The other shopkeepers left first, and Princess Jingyang took An Yan to choose a lot of fabrics, saying that she wanted to cut them into a few more clothes for daily wear.

Qin Yue'e smiled with her eyes curved and introduced them to them enthusiastically.

After the selection was almost done, Qin Yue'e took a tape measure and went into the inner room with An Yan to measure the size first.

"Miss An has a really good figure, and her figure is as slender as a willow swaying in the wind. I have measured the sizes of so many women, but I have never seen one so well-proportioned and graceful. She and the general are really a perfect match!" Qin Yue'e kept moving her hands and talking.

An Yan chuckled lightly, with an ambiguous meaning, "Weak as a willow? I'm an orphan. I've been hungry and cold since I was little. It hurt my stomach. Now I can't even afford to grow meat."

Qin Yue'e choked a little, "Miss An has finally come to an end after all the hardships. It will be a good life from now on!"

An Yan didn't respond, but simply turned around. A hint of awkwardness hung in the silent air.

Even someone as eloquent as Qin Yue'e didn't know what to say to break the strange atmosphere. She buried her head in her work when she heard An Yan ask, "Where is the shopkeeper from? His accent sounds familiar."

"I'm from Yu County, Anxi. In my early years, I followed the head of the family and traveled extensively. I haven't been back for nearly ten years. I didn't expect Miss An to recognize my accent. Have you been to Yu County?"

An Yan's expression was indifferent. "That's not the case. I just have a friend who is from Wangjia Village in Yu County. I haven't seen him for many years and I miss him a little."

Qin Yue'e's eyes lit up, "My husband's family is from Wangjia Village. What's the name of that friend? Maybe I know him!"

"She is just a poor weak woman. She has no name. She is just called Erya according to her ranking in the family." When An Yan said this, she stared at Qin Yue'e's expression, but found that she didn't react much.

Qin Yue'e just sighed, "Women in our country have a low status. Many families give birth to girls and name them Big Girl, Second Girl, Big Girl, or Second Girl. When they are old enough, they are promised to others to help their brothers earn money to marry wives. Alas."

An Yan didn't know how sincere her sigh was, but she still hadn't remembered that she had a daughter named Erya?

Then I heard her say, as if she had just remembered, "I also have a poor daughter, also called Erya. She has not been with us since she was young. She stayed with my difficult mother-in-law to fulfill her filial duty for us. I haven't seen her for so many years. I wonder what she looks like now."

Haha, at this time in the previous life, the original owner had already fallen into the Yang family's den of wolves, and must have been covered in wounds with a bruised face and nose.

An Yan didn't want to talk to her anymore, "Have you measured it?"

"It's measured! If you have any further requests, Miss An, please call me at any time, or send a message. I will do my best to help you."

"Yeah." An Yan tidied her clothes and walked out. Qin Yue'e packed up her things and followed her.

In the hall, Princess Jingyang and Rong Yan were drinking tea together. Seeing An Yan come out, Rong Yan stood up and strode towards her. "Yan Yan, do you like your choice? If not, I will go to the palace to ask for some tribute."

"Don't worry, General. The materials here are all top-quality and will definitely satisfy Miss An." Qin Yue'e interrupted actively.

Rong Yan looked at Qin Yue'e with a cold face. She was immediately frightened and lowered her head, not daring to say anything more.

An Yan pulled his hand and said softly, "The shark silk is very beautiful. I like it very much."

Rong Yan shifted his gaze back, and instantly spring came to life.
