Chapter 40 Price Gouging(2/2)

"Mrs. Chu, this banknote is real. I'll wrap it up for you, little one." The shopkeeper wrapped the jewelry in his bag.

When everything was ready, Mrs. Ye took the opportunity to sneak away secretly.

"Shopkeeper, this Mrs. Ye is the biological mother of Concubine Ye of Prince Xiao's palace. Maybe Prince Xiao will be the Ye family's son-in-law in the future. I believe Mrs. Ye will not default on her debt."

Chu Yunning's voice was loud and attracted the attention of several ladies.

Everyone was paying attention here. Mrs. Ye's heart tightened and she clutched the handkerchief tightly, wishing she could faint.

In fact, Mrs. Ye was about to faint, but Chu Yunning saw through it in advance: "Mrs. Ye looks so embarrassed, do you want to send someone to Prince Xiao's Mansion to inform you? Dr. Liu from Prince Xiao's Mansion is very skilled in medicine and happens to be far away from here.

It’s not far either.”

Mrs. Ye didn't dare to faint after hearing this. She didn't bring enough money when she went out today.

When I was embarrassed, a familiar and annoying voice came from the crowd.

"I paid the money."

Ye Yaner's face was covered with a veil, only a pair of almond eyes were exposed, and she glanced at Chu Yunning resentfully.

"How could Miss Chu bully my mother? My mother is not in good health and cannot be angry."

When she saw the patron coming, Mrs. Ye immediately raised her forehead, looking very angry.

Chu Yunning's lips curled up into a sneer: "How could Concubine Ye slap her down? With so many people present, who saw us bullying Mrs. Ye?"

"Yan'er, forget it, it's nothing if my mother suffers a little injustice. Who gave General Chu such great achievements? We are just insignificant ordinary people."

Madam Ye held Ye Yaner's hand and persuaded her in a low voice.

"I know you must be dissatisfied with me, so you took the opportunity to vent your anger on my mother. Your being kicked out of the house has nothing to do with me..."

Chu Yunning couldn't listen anymore and interrupted in time: "Concubine Ye, you are mistaken. It was not that I was kicked out of the palace, but that I left the palace on my own initiative."

Ye Yaner didn't believe this at all. Chu Yunning must have said it deliberately because he was afraid of losing face.

Ye Yan'er turned back to look at Prince Xiao. After a while, she asked for confirmation, and Chu Yunning's lie was soon exposed.

"Your Majesty, did Miss Chu really leave the palace on her own initiative?"

Prince Xiao hadn't seen Chu Yunning for several days and thought she would have a very bad life and would cry and scream for her to come back soon.

But I didn't expect that Chu Yunning would have a calm face and be in the mood for shopping. It was really unexpected.

Prince Xiao did not answer directly.

"Since Mrs. Ye paid the money, I won't disturb these elegant people."

Chu Yunning really didn't want to get entangled with a few people, so she pulled Mrs. Chu and left.

Ye Yan'er blocked the door and asked angrily: "Miss Chu calculated that my mother bought such expensive jewelry, shouldn't she express it a little bit? Although the Ye family is not as prominent as the Chu family, I will never give up if anyone dares to bully my mother!
