Chapter 383 is not enough
After hearing what the maid said, Hu Yingxue and Wang Shuyao couldn't help but look at each other, and memories in their minds emerged like a tide.
Then, the maid continued, "You are just a wild girl from the countryside, how could you have the chance to meet Prince Yun? It must have been just a coincidence that she met him at the autumn banquet held at Duke Liu's mansion that day." She pouted as she spoke, her face full of disdain.
Another maid quickly echoed, "That's right! Prince Yun is such a noble man. Our young lady is the daughter of a dignified Shangshu Mansion, but she has no chance to meet Prince Yun!
How could a country girl like her, covered in dirt, surpass our young lady, who was born into a rich and powerful family? "At this point, the maid also held her head high, her eyes full of contempt.
After thinking about what happened that day, Hu Yingxue concluded that it was just a coincidence. After all, how could that vulgar girl from the countryside be qualified to have an encounter with Prince Yun?
Thinking of this, Hu Yingxue raised her chin slightly and said proudly in a condescending manner: "Get out here quickly! This box is for me!" Her tone was so arrogant, as if the whole world revolved around her.
However, faced with such an unreasonable request, Yue Xi, who was standing at the door of the box, did not even think about it, and responded without hesitation: "Why? It was obviously us who used this box first!" Her voice was crisp and firm, and she was not overwhelmed by the other party's momentum at all.
At this time, the maid standing next to Hu Yingxue saw this and immediately puffed out her chest and shouted arrogantly: "Humph! Just because my young lady is the daughter of the Shangshu Mansion! You people of low status dare to disobey my young lady's will, you are simply courting death!"
"No!" Yuexi raised her head, her eyes firm and fearless. She knew very well in her heart that the daughter of the Shangshu Mansion was nothing compared to her young lady.
Wang Shuyao glanced at Yuexi with contempt, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a hint of sarcasm, and said coldly: "Humph, while I'm still in a good mood and willing to have a few words with you, if you know what's good for you, get out of my way quickly, otherwise you'll be in trouble later, don't regret it then."
Upon hearing this, Yuexi sneered and said, "Is this store owned by your family? The owner didn't even drive us away, so why are you showing off here? Who do you think you are?"
When Wang Shuyao heard Yue Xi's tough response, her face turned a little gloomy, but she still pretended to be calm and retorted: "It's just that the shopkeeper doesn't want to offend anyone. Do you think he dares to offend me?" After saying that, she crossed her arms across her chest, looking arrogant and contemptuous.
"I don't know whether the shopkeeper dares to offend you, but I can tell you for sure that the shopkeeper will never ask us to leave here, let alone drive us away!" Yuexi raised her chin slightly with a smug look on her face, a hint of contempt and confidence in her eyes.
When Hu Yingxue heard the little maid's arrogant words, she was immediately filled with anger. She snorted coldly, glared at Yuexi and said, "Humph, you lowly people dare to compete with me? You simply don't know your place! Come on, kick them all out immediately!"
As soon as Hu Yingxue finished speaking, the maids standing behind her rolled up their sleeves, rubbed their hands, and prepared to step forward to fight. For a moment, the atmosphere became tense, as if a fierce conflict was about to break out.
At this critical moment, a voice suddenly rang out: "Stop!" Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw the shopkeeper walking in quickly from the door. He walked straight to Hu Yingxue and asked solemnly: "Miss Hu, what is going on? Why are you making trouble here?"
Seeing this, the maidservant beside Hu Yingxue spoke up first and rebuked loudly, "Boss, is it that our Shangshu Mansion is not prestigious enough? We can't even satisfy our young lady's request for a private room? If you don't give us an explanation today, we will not let this matter go!"
However, facing the questioning and pressure from Hu Yingxue's side, the shopkeeper did not show any intention of backing down.
He straightened his back and answered in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "If Miss Hu is still interested in choosing jewelry, please move to other boxes. I'm really sorry, this box is already being used by a distinguished guest, and it's really inconvenient to entertain you. I hope Miss Hu can understand." At the end, the shopkeeper's tone was obviously much tougher.
