Chapter 318 The Empress, the Hostage from the Neighboring Country Has Returned in Battle (Part 2)
"Your Highness, this jade pendant is a new design in our shop, priced at one thousand taels of silver. Are you sure you want this one?"
The manager of Jin Yu Ge looked at the jade pendant in front of Jiang He and asked her if she wanted to buy it.
Jiang He looked at the jade pendant.
The jade pendant is a fine jade pendant, and its design is very beautiful.
The lotus pattern on it is very exquisite.
The original owner bought this jade pendant because the lotus flower on it was Ji Yu'an's favorite flower.
Therefore, the original owner of this body went to great lengths to collect various items with lotus patterns.
Lotus-patterned jade pendant, lotus-patterned jade hairpin, lotus-patterned hair ornament, and clothing with lotus patterns.
Jiang He also specially bought the lotus paintings that everyone had made and gave them to Ji Yu'an.
All for the sake of making you smile.
Jiang He looked at Ji Yu'an beside her.
"Yu'an, do you like this lotus jade pendant?"
Today, the original owner of this body invited Ji Yu'an out, and the two went shopping together.
Hearing that the Golden Jade Pavilion had acquired a new batch of ornaments, the original owner brought Ji Yu'an into the Golden Jade Pavilion.
I wanted to see if there were any good items to buy as gifts for Ji Yu'an.
The original owner of this body often bought gifts for Ji Yu'an.
Especially the items in this Golden Jade Pavilion.
Whenever there was a new product, the original owner would bring Ji Yu'an with her.
Ji Yu'an buys anything that he glances at even once.
I'll buy anything that Ji Yu'an praises.
The original owner bought things she thought were beautiful and gave them to Ji Yu'an.
The original owner bought things that Ji Yu'an thought he would like and gave them away as gifts.
The manager of Jin Yu Ge was looking at Jiang He more and more like she was a sucker.
Every time the original owner came, the shopkeeper would ask several times, "Are you sure you want it?"
The shopkeeper was annoyed that Ji Yu'an had given such an expensive gift and still looked disgusted.
Everything she has here is top-quality stuff.
What does Ji Yu'an mean by looking at her with disdain? Does he look down on Jin Yu Ge?
She doesn't even look at herself. Aren't all the things she wears and carries from her Golden Jade Pavilion?
When I bought them, I found fault with everything about them, but then I ended up wearing them all.
Today, upon learning of the new products at Jin Yu Ge, the original owner immediately brought Ji Yu'an over.
Ji Yu'an was admiring the lotus-shaped jade pendant.
This lotus-shaped jade pendant is indeed exquisitely crafted.
Moreover, it matches his lotus-shaped jade hairpin very well.
However, Ji Yu'an's expression remained indifferent.
It's just a lotus-shaped jade pendant.
It's only a thousand taels of silver.
Does Jiang He really want to praise him herself?
At worst, I can just give her a smile later.
Ji Yu'an heard Jiang He's question.
An impatient expression appeared on his face.
It's just a jade pendant.
Buy if you want, don't buy if you don't want.
What do you do here?
If Jiang He had truly wanted to give it to her, he would have bought the lotus jade pendant long ago and given it to her.
What are you still dawdling about here for?
"Your Highness, these are all external things. Whether they look good or not is a matter of personal opinion."
"As long as the eldest princess thinks it looks good, my opinion doesn't matter."
Ji Yu'an pretended not to understand Jiang He's words.
Anyway, he wouldn't ask Jiang He for anything.
Not only will they not want it, they will refuse it.
However, if Jiang He insists on giving it to him, he has no choice but to accept it.
Even as a hostage, he couldn't possibly win against the powerful Princess Jiang He.
In fact, Ji Yu'an already knew yesterday that Jin Yu Ge had launched new products.
He had long coveted this lotus-shaped jade pendant.
But Jiang He went to the palace yesterday and didn't ask him to go shopping.
Ji Yu'an worried about it all night, fearing that someone else would buy the lotus jade pendant.
Moreover, when he went out today, he specifically wore the lotus jade hairpin that Jiang He had given him before.
When Jiang He saw this lotus-shaped jade pendant, he would find that it was very similar to his lotus-shaped jade hairpin.
I would buy the lotus jade pendant and give it to him.
Moreover, he specifically instructed his servant to mention the new products that Jin Yu Ge had brought to Jiang He today.
Whenever Jiang He hears that Jin Yu Ge has new arrivals, she will definitely come to check them out.
So Jiang He immediately led him over.
Ji Yu'an stood in front of the lotus jade pendant for a while longer, and Jiang He noticed him.
But everything went smoothly today, so why did I suddenly ask him how the jade pendant was doing?
Normally, Jiang He would have already asked the shopkeeper to wrap up the jade pendant, paid, and left.
Once they were in the carriage, Jiang He would personally hang the jade pendant on him, saying it suited him perfectly and that he had to accept it without refusing.
"Is that what Yu'an thinks? What Yu'an said makes sense. These ornaments are indeed a matter of personal taste, and it depends on the mood of the person buying them."
Shopkeeper, I'll postpone buying this lotus jade pendant.
Suddenly, it doesn't feel so good anymore.
Jiang He looked at the shopkeeper and withdrew a transaction request.
The shopkeeper wasn't unhappy that the business hadn't gone through.
Jiang He said she wouldn't buy it, and the shopkeeper was delighted and put the jade pendant away.
The items at Jin Yu Ge are never hard to sell.
"Alright, Your Highness, would you like to see anything else?"
"I won't buy anything today. I don't have enough money on me. Shopkeeper, I'll be going now. I'll come back another day if I need anything."
"Alright, Your Highness, take care."
The shopkeeper saw Jiang He out of the Golden Jade Pavilion.
Jiang He left Jin Yu Ge and went straight to the carriage.
Ji Yu'an watched as the shopkeeper put the lotus jade pendant away.
Ji Yu'an was very unhappy because he failed to buy the jade pendant.
Seeing Jiang He come out on her own and get into the carriage, Ji Yu'an was even more unhappy.
What does Jiang He mean by this?
Why didn't you buy him the jade pendant? Didn't you offer any explanation?
And they didn't even wait for him, so they didn't want to invite him onto the carriage?
Ji Yu'an stood outside the carriage. He wouldn't get on unless Jiang He got off and invited him.
Even if Ji Yu'an just heard Jiang He say that he didn't bring enough money today.
Jiang He only explained to the shopkeeper, not to him.
When Ji Yu'an is unhappy, he will make things difficult for Jiang He.
After Jiang He got into the carriage, she told the driver to go back to the mansion.
The coachman glanced at Ji Yu'an, who was still standing outside.
This time, Yu'an seems determined not to get on the carriage.
The coachman asked Jiang He, "Your Highness, Young Master Ji hasn't boarded the carriage yet."
Jiang He lifted the carriage curtain.
"Yu'an, I suddenly remembered that I have something to attend to at the manor, so I need to go back first. Let's end today's schedule here."
Do you want me to escort you back to your residence, or would you like to wander around a bit more and return home on your own later?
"Since the eldest princess has urgent business, then please go ahead and attend to it."
Yu'an can go back on her own. There's no need for the Crown Princess to worry about her.
Ji Yu'an's words already indicated that he was angry.
If it were the original owner of this body, she would definitely grab the person immediately, coax them, and buy a bunch of gifts to appease them.
However, Jiang He is not the original body.
Nodding, he lowered the curtain and told the driver to head back home.
The coachman glanced at Ji Yu'an; even the coachman could tell that this young master Ji was angry.
But the driver was quite happy.
Her eldest princess finally stopped begging Ji Yu'an.
Fearing that Jiang He might change her mind, the driver quickly drove the cart away.
