Marriage of the Di Daughter Chapter 94 Part 3: Brothel

Ye Jia Er treated Jiang Li very amicably, very different from the other members of the Ye family who guarded and alienated her. Towards Jiang Li, Ye Jia Er was like an unfamiliar and never-met-before younger female cousin, cordial and a bit curious. She asked about some things in Yanjing, which Jiang Li did not hide from her and told her about matters one by one.

A smart person always hits it off when in contact with another smart person. Unexpectedly, during the journey to Li Zheng Tang, the two people became much closer. Compared with the precious unfamiliarity, they seemed to have established a kind of unspoken rapport.

After walking for an unknown period of time, Ye Jia Er stopped, motioned to Jiang Li, and said: See, that is the Ye familys shop, Li Zheng Tang.

Not far away stood a small red tiled and refined building, right in the middle of the hustle and bustle of the city center. This building alone occupied ten units and was magnificent.

The fabrics produced by the Ye family are all here. When the tailors and dressmakers shops in Xiangyang want to make ready made clothes, they will use the material of Li Zheng Tang. The most famous is the antique fragrant satin. If younger cousin likes it, you can go in and pick several bolts. Said Ye Jia Er.

Jiang Li nodded.

The Ye household was a very wealthy enterprise who had a hand in many industries. Its just that after they withdrew from Yanjing city, the other industries had gradually been regarded as side businesses. Their primary business still depended on the textile industry that they first started in. The Ye familys fabrics were well-known in the whole country. The fabric that Ye Jia Er mentioned, the antique fragrant satin, was much loved by the circle of noble ladies in Yanjing. With that said, it would be weird if the Ye family wasnt prosperous.

Although Ye Jia Er was modest, when talking about her familys produce, she couldnt help revealing a trace of pride in her tone. She turned her head to look at Jiang Li and saw that Jiang Li had a tranquil expression, without any look of astonishment.

Its not the first time Jiang Li saw Li Zheng Tang. When the previous her and Xue Zhao went to Xiangyang, they played around in the city center and itd be hard to avoid coming across Li Zheng Tang. However, the two of them were not people who could afford to wear antique fragrant satin, thus they just took a look from outside and never went inside.

This time however, she was invited as an honorable guest. The things of the world were really changeable.

Ye Jia Er was not aware of the reason and merely thought that Jiang Li was truly a young lady from the capital, able to keep calm in the middle of things. She then smiled and said: Lets go inside.

When she entered Li Zheng Tang together with Ye Jia Er, a youngster whose duty was to greet the customers saw Ye Jia Er and immediately stepped forward with a smile. He greeted: Miss Jia Er.

Ye Jia Er turned her head to look at Jiang Li and said: Younger cousin, you can take a look around and see if you fancy anything?

That shop assistant and the shopkeeper heard Ye Jia Er and both looked at Jiang Li.The people at the shop knew the matter of Jiang second miss returning to Xiangyang. Other people didnt know that the estrangement between Jiang Li and the Ye family at that time was due to Jiang Lis hurtful words. They only thought that it was because Jiang Yuan Bai had remarried, so the affinity between the two families naturally were naturally broken and they were no longer in contact with one another, thats all. Despite that, Jiang Lis bad reputation of harming her mother and murdering her younger brother spread far and the people in Xiangyang had also heard about this to some extent. There were many speculations about this malicious Jiang second miss in the rumor. Now, this person who was called as younger cousin by Ye Jia Er should be that Jiang second miss who had recently returned to the Ye family in Xiangyang.

But this girl was not the slightest inferior as she stood beside Ye Jia Er. Her appearance was extremely quiet and exquisite, her smile was gentle, pure and light, not at all showing a venomous look imagined by everyone. Not mentioning anything else, just based on her pair of eyes, it wasnt worthy of people who had a filthy inner heart. No matter what, they couldnt produce such clear eyes.

While the shopkeeper and the shop assistant were thinking deeply, Jiang Li had already walked around the cabinet, walking to this side and that side. The shopkeeper snapped out of his thoughts and immediately let the shop assistant take several bolts of new materials and piled them in front of Jiang Li. He smiled and fawned: Miss cousin, these are the new materials, they are elegant and also fashionable.

Jiang Li looked at the satins and had to say that the Ye family deserved to be called growing their business relying on cloth. The cloth here was more delicate and bright-colored compared to Yanjing. The feeling as it was caressed by hand was slippery and ice-cold, seemingly still exuding a faint fragrance.

There doesnt seem to be any antique fragrant satin here right? Jiang Li leaned her head to the side and asked. She was somewhat curious, by means of the antique fragrant satin that was famous in the Ye familys shop, since what they were currently showing were all popular materials, why werent there any of the antique fragrant satin renowned in the entire Bei Yan? It couldnt be because they were not willing to take it out for her, this outsider, to see?

Ye Jia Er was stunned and looked towards the shopkeeper to say: Shopkeeper Qian, why didnt you take out the antique fragrant satin for younger cousin to see?

Shopkeeper Qians face suddenly showed awkwardness and he said: Miss Jia Er, its not that we dont want to take it out to show miss cousin, its just.

Before he finished speaking, his gaze abruptly stopped elsewhere. Jiang Li followed his sight and turned around to see, it was actually two strange middle aged men.

Uncle Zhuang, uncle Zhao, why are you here? Ye Jia Er opened her mouth and spoke.

Those two people looked at Ye Jia Er and asked: Jia Er, your dad and uncle are not here?

They are not. Is anything the matter? Ye Jia Er asked cautiously.
