2607: Conflict

Conflict

"Shopkeeper, I want that piece of ice-silk satin." Feng Jiu and the others looked back at the 2

 cold and arrogant female voice that drifted over. 

They saw that it belonged to a beautiful lady in a white veil. There were several guards around her. Judging from their clothes, they were probably members of an aristocratic family. 

Xie Shisi saw the woman's eyes had fallen on the piece of fabric she was holding and snorted softly: "What ice-silk satin? I picked out this piece of cloth, I want to make clothes for my Mother with it." She held the piece of fabric tightly as she spoke, as if afraid of being robbed.

The lady dressed in white glanced at Xie Shisi with contempt, then her eyes swept over to the beautiful woman and Feng Jiu with a proud look and said: "You don't even know what ice-silk satin is, what's the use of buying it?"

She moved step by step and walked in and came to Xie Shisi. She reached out and touched the piece of fabric and spoke in a soft voice filled with pride: "Ice-silk satin is woven from silk spit out by ice silkworms. When you wear it, flames won't be able to get near your body. Especially in the summer, it will feel cold when you wear it on your body."

Her voice paused and her chin lifted. She glanced at them arrogantly: "Ordinary people can't afford to buy this kind of fabric."

"What do you care? Besides, I saw it first and my family can afford it." Xie Shisi was dissatisfied about being looked down upon and stared angrily. She ran over to the counter with the piece of fabric in her hands. 

"Shopkeeper, I'm buying this piece of fabric as well. Take the measurements for my mother and choose the style, you have to make the best looking clothes."

When the beautiful woman heard this, she smiled gently and touched Xie Shisi's head dotingly. She looked at the lady dressed in white and asked in a warm voice: "Young Miss, did you reserve this piece of fabric?"

The lady dressed in white was startled. Her mouth moved and she glanced at the beautiful woman, then she said: "I have been here many times."

"Did she pay a deposit?" The beautiful woman asked and looked at the shopkeeper.

"Well…"

The shopkeeper hesitated for a moment, then he looked at the beautiful woman and said: "No, it's just the Young Miss Ruan has been several times, and I told her that the piece of fabric will arrive in the next two days. The piece of material has only just arrived today and Madam has taken a liking to it."

The piece of fabric was good, and there was only one piece! The Ruan Family was a big family in the city. This lady had just told him to deliver the clothes to the Xie Family when they were ready. The Xie Family was also a big family in the city. Neither of them were to be offended. 

"So, that means that this piece of fabric hasn't been ordered by anyone yet. Now that we have taken a fancy to it first, naturally we should buy it first. Shopkeeper, do you think this is reasonable?" The beautiful woman's voice was gentle, like a spring breeze, which made people feel different when they heard it. 

Feng Jiu watched from the side and thought to herself: No wonder Xie Yan married her even though she was unable to cultivate. It seemed unusual indeed. 

"You dare to snatch with me? Do you know who I am?" The lady dressed in white was only sixteen or seventeen years old. She was no match for the beautiful woman, and she was unable to hold back her anger. 

The beautiful woman turned her head and looked at the lady dressed in white with a gentle smile and said softly: "I've not asked what your name is?"

"I am the Third Young Miss of the Ruan Family! I was going to buy this fabric for my Mother's birthday!"

Upon hearing this, the beautiful woman's expression moved slightly and she touched the light blue fabric on the counter with one hand and smiled.
