Lu Lingjun took it easy and walked back, meeting Qiu Ling who came out.
"Young Madam." Qiu Ling saw her and came forward with a smile.
"Where are you going?" Lu Lingjun asked.
"Go shopping." Qiu Ling said with a flattering look on her face, "Young Madam, I heard that there is a new thing on the street these days. It's called soap. It's much easier to use than the soap locust we have at home. It can wash clothes even more. Liuxiang, let’s go take a look on the street together.”
"Okay."
Lu Lingjun has nothing else to do, so it would be nice to go and see new things together.
She asked the Houfu to prepare the carriage and went shopping with Qiu Ling on the street.
Soon, the carriage arrived at East Street.
The things sold on East Street are the most expensive and best in the capital.
The people who usually hang out here are all the ladies from the capital.
Lu Lingjun and Qiu Ling got off the carriage together, and a newly opened grocery store attracted her attention.
"Yes, that's the store!" Qiu Ling pointed at the store excitedly.
"New World Department Store?"
Lu Lingjun thought about this sign.
This name made it fresh and novel. In this era, most shops were named after the surname of the shopkeeper or owner plus the industry, such as Zhao Ji Inn, Liu Ji Buzhuang, or named after places, such as Huzhou Big Wonton, Liuzhou Vermicelli, etc.
The more elegant ones are called gezhai, pavilions, buildings, and things sold in the halls, such as Baozhitang, Yashuzhai, etc.
Then there are the most common auspicious words such as "Ju Fu", "Ju Bin" and "Xi Ke", which are used with one's own restaurants.
Only the New World Department Store in front of him made Lu Lingjun's eyes light up.
It was a name she had never seen before.
And looking at the combination of this name, it actually smells a bit like the cafeteria that Xing Dairong ran before.
"Interesting." She smiled and led Qiu Ling and the two maids into the store.
As soon as I stepped inside, I smelled a faint floral aroma.
The sales boy gathered around several brightly-dressed women and had a heated discussion, "This soap is so popular now that all the ladies and ladies in the capital are using it."
"With a gentle rub, the stains will be washed away quickly. Unlike the soap powder before, which will not come off after several times of scrubbing, we have to use this for those expensive silk brocades."
"Is it really that useful?" Qiu Ling approached and asked.
The young man glanced at Qiu Ling and saw that Qiu Ling was wearing an embroidered satin jacket, a gold hairpin on her head, and a gold bracelet on her wrist. This attire was originally worn by women from wealthy families, but not by ordinary small wealthy families. She must be able to afford the satin jacket she is wearing.
Because the word "wearing gold and silver" is really not an ordinary word.
Some female relatives from smaller families, and even some mistresses from high-ranking official families, may not be able to wear high-quality goods from head to toe, head and face, accessories, clothes, shoes and socks.
Qiu Ling saw that he came from a wealthy family.
Immediately, he put down several other small customers, smiled at Qiu Ling and said, "Really, sister, a satin coat like yours does not need to be rubbed. Use this, rub it with water and it will be clean."
"You buy this kind with floral fragrance, this kind will still have a fragrance after use! It's only a tael of silver a piece."
After hearing this, Qiu Ling turned to look at Lu Lingjun happily, "Young madam, this is it!"
Lu Lingjun looked from behind and smiled slightly, "Then buy it."
It's a little expensive, but Lu Lingjun is also willing to try new things.
After getting the agreement, Qiu Ling immediately said loudly, "Man! Wrap this soap for me. We want ten yuan."
"okay--"
Before the boy finished speaking, and when he was about to win the big deal, a bright and sarcastic female voice sounded from behind the counter.
"We won't sell you!"
As the voice fell, a young woman wearing a lotus pink dress and a peach vest walked out of the inner room.
She wore her hair in a bun like that of a girl who had not left the palace. She only had a pearl and silver hairpin on her head and an jade bracelet on her wrist. However, judging from the appearance and quality of the water, it was just a cheap product.
It's really not expensive.
However, this woman seemed to have a very high status in the store. As soon as she came out, the guys who wanted to do big business immediately shut up.
Not to be offended.
In the spotlight of everyone, the young woman stopped in front of Qiu Ling and Lu Lingjun and smiled at them, "Hey, aren't these the young lady and Aunt Qiu of Ningyang Houfu?"
It was Xing Dairong who said this.
Xing Dairong's tone was unkind, Qiu Ling said unceremoniously, "Hey, isn't this Miss Xing from Piaoxiang Pavilion?"
Hearing the words Piaoxiang Pavilion, Xing Dairong's anger jumped up again. She gritted her back molars and said fiercely, "It's been a long time since I last saw Aunt Qiu. She still looks like such a slave."
"To each other, you shameless prostitute and runaway slave are no better than me."
Xing Dairong was furious, "Ha! You're such a bitch, Lu Lingjun, why don't you take care of your dog quickly, or else I'll beat the dog without looking at the owner!"
"Hey! You are..." Qiu Ling raised her hands in anger.
At this time, Lu Lingjun stopped her, "Okay, Aunt Qiu."
As soon as she opened her mouth, Qiu Ling reluctantly put down her hand.
Seeing her deflated, Xing Dairong was happy, "Huh, a dog is a dog, and he said he is not a slave."
Seeing Qiu Ling getting angry again, Lu Lingjun became a little impatient, "Miss Xing, what do you want to do?"
"Nothing to do, my store, I can sell to whomever I want."
"Is this your shop?"
"Of course, this store is mine, and my business is doing great. The soap I developed is selling well all over the capital." Xing Dairong looked proud, showing off that she was still living a great life without you.
I was even more expecting to see shock and regret in their eyes.
Unfortunately, Lu Lingjun still smiled lightly, "Congratulations."
She didn't respond, and Xing Dairong stared at her with jealousy, "I'm not like some people. In the final analysis, I'm just a bunch of parasites with no talent!"
At this time, Qiuling's voice came, "I know that some people rely on their talents in bed to move from one man's bed to another."
"You're looking for death!" Xing Dairong couldn't bear it anymore and raised his hand to hit Qiuling.
At this time, a hand firmly grasped her arm. Lu Lingjun held her hand tightly and looked at her coldly, "What are you going to do!"
"Did you hear what she said! She humiliated me!"
"Then it's not your turn to teach her a lesson!" Lu Lingjun coldly threw her hand back.
Xing Dairong, who was thrown away, looked at Lu Lingyun angrily, "Do you know who I am now?"
"Who is it?" Lu Lingjun looked at her indifferently, "Which lady or lady is it? Or is it my aunt?"
"Luo Heng said he would marry me as his wife! Eight big sedans are being carried, and the matchmaker is getting married!" Guard that scumbag Cheng Yunshuo!"
Lu Lingjun looked at her, smiled faintly, and waved to the servants, "Let's go!"
