There was a whole row of VIP rooms on the second floor. Some were large, and some were small. The rooms can be used according to the number of people.

In each VIP room, there was an experienced embroiderer, who advises the ladies and young ladies on selecting materials.

At this time, the door of a VIP room was open, and voices could be heard inside.

“Nan’er, look at how good the material Xue’er chose for you. It fits you well.”

“Nan Dage looks good in everything he wears.”

“Look at that sweet mouth of yours, you haven’t entered the Meng Family’s door, but your elbow already turns around. Your eldest brother will be heartbroken. Now that you’re still in Tianyi Pavilion, you also choose some material for him.”

“Oh, sister-in-law, what nonsense are you talking about!”

When Pei Xiachen heard the voice, she knew that it was Zheng Ruxue. She and Zheng Ruxue had met twice. She was a gentle, virtuous, beautiful, and generous woman as what the rumors said. A rare talent.

When Pei Xiachen walked to the door, she pretended to pass by carelessly, then she turned her head back and made a surprised expression: “Xue’er Jiejie? Is it really you?” Then, she entered with a smile.

Zheng Ruxue was shocked. Who was this girl in front of her? Why doesn’t she have any impression?

Mrs. Han, who was sitting next to Zheng Ruxue asked: “People say hello to you, why aren’t you answering back?”

Zheng Ruxue got up and smiled at Pei Xiachen: “Look at my clumsiness, but I don’t know which young miss, this meimei is?”

Pei Xiachen was a little embarrassed. She didn’t expect Zheng Ruxue not to recognize her: “Xue’er Jiejie, you are an honorable person, it’s only natural to be forgetful. We met last time in Liu Shilang’s flower banquet. My name is Pei Xiachen. ”

Among the nobles in the capital, there was only one family named Pei, the Changyuan Houfu.

The people inside immediately guessed her identity, and then their eyes fell behind Pei Xiachen. The girl with a stern face must be the daughter of Changyuan Houfu, who they just recovered from the outside.

Zheng Ruxue suddenly said: “Oh, it turned out to be Second Miss Pei. That’s why I found you look so familiar, are you also here to buy clothes?”

Pei Xiachen’s eyes quickly swept around the room and saw Meng Nan sitting under the window drinking tea. Her eyes naturally stopped for two more breaths, then two red clouds appeared on her pretty cheeks. Pei Xiachen nodded her head and softly replied: “Yes, my niang and I brought my eldest sister here to take a look at the new material. I didn’t expect to meet Xue’er Jiejie here by coincidence.”

Mrs. Han, who was sitting next to Zheng Ruxue, showed a smile with a trace of ridicule: “Originally, I wanted to invite you to sit together, but this room is too small. I better invite you another day.”

Pei Xiachen understood her meaning, so she hurriedly said to Zheng Ruxue: “Jiejie, take your time. If you have free time, you must come to Houfu and play with me.”

Zheng Ruxue responded politely, while Pei Xiachen nodded her head to Meng Furen with a smile. She thought this smile was the most appropriate, then she gracefully turned around to leave.

She thought these actions left a good impression on Meng Furen. Or at lease, this was the first step to let her know her existence.

As soon as the Pei family left, Young Miss Han ordered the maidservant next to her: “Close the door, don’t let any inexplicable people come in.” She can see clearly that this Pei Xiachen was not aiming at Zhang Ruxue. At such a young age, she has a pair of fox-like eyes. And when she stared at Meng Nan, those eyes were so eager to stick at Meng Nan’s body.

This dead girl, she hasn’t fully grown up yet, but she wanted to grab a man that belongs to their Zhang family? Well, look at the virtues of her mother. What kind of mother was she? So what kind of daughter she will have? Both of them were foxes.
