Reincarnated as the Abandoned Daughter of a Marquis's Mansion: I Take Control of My Life

Upon hearing Su Yinyin's words, the waiter's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly went to prepare the clothes. Su Yue was deeply moved, her eyes slightly reddening, "Sister Yinyin, you're so good to me."

Su Yinyin gently patted her hand, "Silly girl, there's no need for us sisters to be so polite."

At this moment, Li Lan came over and said with a grin, "Sister Yinyin is so generous, it makes me so jealous." Li Lan teased.

"Oh dear, it seems you picked out too many clothes. How about we pick out fewer?" Su Yinyin teased Li Lan, mimicking her own words.

"No, Sister Yinyin, these are all my favorites." Li Lan rushed forward as quickly as possible to protect the clothes she had just picked out.

Li Lan's adorable actions caused Su Yinyin and Su Yue to burst into laughter.

Seeing this scene, Li Lan understood immediately. "You two are laughing at me! I'm so angry!"

Su Yinyin raised her hands in surrender. "Alright, alright, to express my apology, you can pick out some cloaks, shawls, and furs. I just looked at them, and the styles are quite nice!"

The three of them were in a private room. They looked and looked, tried and tried! Finally, they were all satisfied.

Su Yinyin said, "Buddy, all our clothes are made of Yun brocade, so price is not a problem."

The waiter's face lit up with a smile upon hearing Su Yinyin's words. But he understood that with such a large client, it was best for the manager to handle many of the details.

So he said to Su Yinyin, "Miss, how about this? Your requirements are quite high! The things you use are all quite expensive. I'll go and ask the shopkeeper to serve you now."

Su Yinyin thought it made sense, "Go quickly and come back quickly."

"Hey, ladies, please wait a moment." The waiter bowed and scraped, and ran downstairs as fast as he could to ask the manager for help.

When the manager heard what the waiter said, he smiled broadly. This was a big customer! The manager put down what he was doing and rushed to the door of the private room on the second floor.

The shopkeeper tidied himself up in front of the door, making himself as presentable as possible. He knocked on the door and only entered after hearing Su Yinyin's voice inside.

The shopkeeper was followed by the same waiter, who carried freshly baked pastries. The shopkeeper said, "Greetings, ladies. My name is Huang, and I am the shopkeeper. It is my honor to serve you!"

These are freshly baked pastries, still warm! The shopkeeper had barely finished speaking when the waiter placed the pastries on the table.

Su Yinyin replied with a smile, "Thank you for your trouble, Manager Huang. The three of us have taken a liking to many of the clothing styles in your shop and plan to have them made from Yun brocade."

Upon hearing this, Manager Huang's eyes lit up even more, and he nodded hurriedly, "The three ladies have excellent taste. The brocade in our shop is all top-quality, but the price is quite high."

Su Yinyin raised an eyebrow slightly, "As we said, price is not a problem, as long as it is done exquisitely." Li Lan nodded in agreement.

Manager Huang readily agreed, and then took out paper and pen to carefully record the styles and sizes they had chosen.

The three were enjoying themselves when suddenly the door to the private room was pushed open forcefully, and a woman dressed in fine clothes but with a harsh face walked in, followed by two young ladies of similar age. "Oh, who is this? Such a grand gesture." The newcomer was none other than Lin Lili.

Li Lan frowned slightly and said calmly, "So it's Lin Lili. How dare you barge into someone else's private room so rudely?"

Lin Lili snorted coldly, "Who do we have here? It's Lanlan!" Seeing the shopkeeper's record, Lin Lili was filled with jealousy and anger, "Lanlan, where did you get so much money to buy these clothes? These clothes are very expensive. I remember Auntie didn't give you much of your monthly allowance?"

Upon hearing this, Li Lan became anxious and was about to retort when Su Yinyin stopped her. "Lin Lili, you're meddling too much. We're spending our own money, what's it to you? On the contrary, you're being so rude. If word gets out, your reputation as Lin Lili will suffer."

Su Yinyin could tell that Lin Lili was jealous and deliberately picking a fight.

Yeah, right? Can I be jealous? Being able to sit in a private room and pick out clothes means there's a minimum spending requirement.

Lin Lili definitely didn't have that minimum spending requirement.

Su Yinyin and Li Lan couldn't understand it. Lin Lili had no money, no connections, and no power in Beijing! How dare she just push open the door to the private room? Wasn't she afraid of offending someone important?

"You, you all...!" Lin Lili pointed at Su Yinyin, unable to utter a single word for a long time.

Turning to Li Lan, he said, "Lanlan, don't try to save face here. If your aunt has to clean up the mess for you, that would be truly embarrassing! What about the reputation of the Duke's mansion?"

At this moment, a crowd of onlookers slowly gathered at the entrance.

Upon seeing this, the two young ladies accompanying Lin Lili asked, "Lili, is she the eldest daughter of the Duke's mansion?"

“Yes, she’s my cousin, Li Lan. The Duchess of the Duke’s Mansion is my aunt!” Lin Lili answered ingratiatingly. Then, turning to Li Lan in an elder’s tone, she said, “Why don’t you quickly greet these two young ladies?”

Li Lan and Su Yinyin, the shopkeeper looked at Lin Lili with a sarcastic look, his eyes conveying two words: idiot!

Everyone present knew that Li Lan was the most distinguished among the young ladies! But Lin Lili acted like an idiot.

That said, why did Lin Lili dare to push open the door to the private room? Because she saw Li Lan and Su Yinyin walk into the room.

Moreover, she also heard a brief introduction from the waiter that it was a private room and that the minimum charge was five thousand taels.

Li Lan didn't hesitate at all and went straight into the private room with Su Yinyin and the others.

Lin Lili felt resentful. She, Lin Lili, was Li Lan's cousin! Why was Su Yinyin, an outsider, the one receiving money from the Duke's mansion? Her aunt was even more biased, giving money to outsiders and not to her.

Lin Lili was reluctant to spend money because in her heart, the Duke's mansion's money would eventually belong to her. So why should she let an outsider spend it?

In truth, Lin Lili's desire to marry Li Yanche had never changed. The reason she performed these actions in front of the Duke's mansion was to lower their guard so she could seize the opportunity to infiltrate their ranks.

But now that she saw Li Lan spending money on others, Lin Lili lost her composure and completely broke down! So she pushed open the door to the private room without thinking, which led to the current conversation!

Li Lan sneered, "Lin Lili, have you lost your mind? My father is a Duke, and my brother is a General. How dare you ask me to greet them? Do they deserve it? Besides, I don't even know them." The people around were shocked to hear this and began to whisper among themselves.

Lin Lili's face turned pale and then red. "You...you!"
