In the years of famine, I led a comfortable life with my husband

"Where are you looking?" the maid-like person shouted at Su Zhizhi.

Su Zhizhi finally came to her senses, "Sorry, I was just thinking about something. Who is this..."

Su Zhizhi looked at the other person in confusion, she really didn't know who that person was.

The maid looked at Su Zhizhi with increasing disdain, "What a bumpkin! This is the eldest princess's biological sister, the current Princess Changle. Are you a fool? Who in the capital doesn't know the name of our Princess Changle?"

Su Zhizhi finally realized who she had almost bumped into and quickly stepped back to salute. "Your humble servant greets Princess Changle. Please forgive my poor eyesight for not recognizing you. It was your fault. Please forgive me."

Xu Miao, also known as Princess Changle, looked helplessly at the maid who was protecting her and said, "Okay, A'lian, I didn't mean it. By the way, who are you? Why are you in the imperial sister's house?" As she spoke, Xu Miao turned her gaze to Su Zhizhi.

Su Zhizhi quickly replied, "My surname is Su and my name is Zhizhi. If the princess doesn't mind, you can just call me Zhizhi."

"Zhizhi... I know you. I've even heard the princess mention you before." Xu Miao has always been lively and cheerful, without any trace of princess airs.

Su Zhizhi was a little surprised, "Princess Changle knows me?"

"Of course. Not to mention that my imperial sister has mentioned you to me, I think there are only a few people in the entire capital who don't know you. Your shops are very popular, especially the Nishang Pavilion. I really like many of the clothes there." Xu Miao said excitedly.

Su Zhizhi's initial surprise also disappeared. She smiled and then continued, "It is my honor to be favored by the princess. If the princess really likes the clothes in Nishang Pavilion, I will send someone to deliver the latest styles to the princess's residence."

"Are you serious?!" Xu Miao became more and more excited. Perhaps Su Zhizhi didn't pay much attention to it, but Xu Miao knew very well that the clothes of Nishang Pavilion were always available to the highest bidder and were hard to come by. Even though she was a princess, she was particularly fond of clothes from Nishang Pavilion. Su Zhizhi was just catering to her needs.

Su Zhizhi smiled and nodded, "Of course. It's an honor for me to be liked by the princess. However, just a few pieces of clothing can make the princess smile, so these clothes are valuable."

Xu Miao was so happy with Su Zhizhi's coaxing that he directly invited Su Zhizhi to visit his house another day.

Su Zhizhi didn't expect that she would have such an unexpected gain this time when she came to the Princess's Mansion. Naturally, there was no reason for her to refuse. How could Su Zhizhi not seize the connections that were delivered to her door?

As if unable to bear it any longer, the maidservant beside Xu Miao whispered a reminder: "Your Highness, the Princess is still waiting for you. Let's go over there quickly."

Xu Miao then remembered what he was here for today and waved at Su Zhizhi. "I originally came here to look for my sister, but I didn't expect to run into you here. Time is limited, so you should go back home first. You must come to my house when you have time in the future."

After saying that, Xu Miao quickened his pace towards the inside, while Su Zhizhi stood still and waited until Xu Miao walked away before she continued to walk outside.

On the carriage back home, Su Zhizhi had a blank expression on her face, the same look she had just had when facing Xu Miao. She continued to think about what Xie Chengjin was hiding from her. When she thought about it carefully, she felt that something was indeed wrong, but she couldn't put her finger on it specifically. In the end, Su Zhizhi still had no clue, so she simply gave up.

Su Zhizhi thought, if she didn't know, then Xie Chengjin must not want to mention it. In that case, she didn't want to ask anymore.

After returning to the mansion, Su Zhizhi put Xie Chengjin's matter aside, simply changed her clothes, and rushed to Nishang Pavilion. She originally thought of sending a servant there, but after thinking about it, Su Zhizhi felt that it would be better for her to go there in person, just as a random inspection of the store.

Outside the Nishang Pavilion, many young ladies and ladies from aristocratic families gathered here in twos and threes, talking and laughing. Seeing such good business, Su Zhizhi was also a little surprised.

Seeing Su Zhizhi coming, the shopkeeper of Nishang Pavilion hurried out to welcome Su Zhizhi in. "Boss, why are you here in person today?"

The shopkeeper brought Su Zhizhi to the inner room, ordered someone to serve tea and snacks, and then sat down opposite Su Zhizhi.

"Boss, can you please let me see the account book of Nishang Pavilion?" Su Zhizhi took a sip of tea and asked for the account book.

The shopkeeper readily agreed, "Of course, you're the boss, so why can't you take a look? I'll bring it to you right away."

After saying that, the shopkeeper turned and left. A moment later, he returned holding two account books. "Boss, take a look. These are the account books for the past period of time. Although our Nishang Pavilion can't be said to be making a fortune every day, its business in the capital is one of the best. This is all thanks to you, Boss."

Su Zhizhi briefly checked it and then put the account book aside. Thinking of Xu Miao's request, Su Zhizhi asked, "Has Nishang Pavilion released any new products recently?"

"Of course, of course. Would you like to take a look, boss?" The shopkeeper nodded. Seeing Su Zhizhi nod, the shopkeeper asked someone to bring the latest ready-made clothes for Su Zhizhi to take a look.

Su Zhizhi was slightly stunned when she took a look at it. No wonder even Princess Changle praised the dress.

"It's really good. Then pick out the best quality new styles, pack them, and send them to Princess Changle's mansion." Su Zhizhi ordered.

Seeing the shopkeeper's agreement, Su Zhizhi got up and left Nishang Pavilion. She was tired after a day and now she just wanted to go back and have a good rest.

The display cabinet moved very quickly. In a short while, he had properly packed up the things that Su Zhizhi had specifically requested, and personally went to Princess Changle's mansion to deliver the clothes.

Xu Miao had just returned to the mansion at this time. Seeing the shopkeeper of Nishang Pavilion coming, her round eyes lit up instantly, "Hurry and bring the person in."

The shopkeeper was brought to Xu Miao.

"I'm honored to meet Her Royal Highness Princess Changle. These are specially sent by my boss. I heard that the princess likes clothes from Nishang Pavilion. These happen to be the latest styles from Nishang Pavilion. I hope the princess likes them." After saying that, the shopkeeper signaled the servant following him to put the clothes in the hands of Xu Miao's personal maid.

Xu Miao's eyes were glued to the clothes. Looking at the clothes held in front of him, Xu Miao reached out and held the clothes in his arms lovingly. "I didn't expect Zhizhi to actually bring them to me. Quick, put them away properly. Don't get them dirty."
