As expected, You Jue did not lag behind and also followed up.
When Yu'er and Kurihara arrived at Jōzuki Castle, everything at the city gate was as usual, nothing unusual happened.
"Where to go now?" Kurihara asked.
"After a busy night, I'm hungry and tired. Let's find a place to eat first, and then find a place to rest." Yu'er said.
After saying that, he was about to enter the city.
Kurihara grabbed her from behind and said, "If you want to go into the city, you have to change your clothes first."
As she spoke, she pointed at the princess clothes she was wearing.
The second thing that makes it luxurious and conspicuous is the colorful phoenix pattern sewn on the lapel and sleeves of the shirt, which is not something that ordinary people can embroider casually.
"I almost forgot." Yu'er also felt something was wrong.
"Wait for me here." Kurihara said.
After that, he went into the city, found a set of blouses, and gave them to Yu'er.
"So fast? Where did it come from?" Yu'er asked.
"Of course it's easy to do things if you have money." Kurihara said, "Hurry up and put it on."
Yu'er walked behind the tree, surrounded herself with the ice wall, and changed her clothes.
It doesn't fit particularly well, so I just wear it.
"My own is better. When I go to the city later, I want to make a new one." Yu'er collected the ice wall and turned out from behind the tree.
"It's up to you, just do whatever you like." Kurihara said with a smile.
Then the two of them entered the city gate together.
Just as I entered the city gate, I saw a man standing under the city wall in a long gown.
It is absolutely secluded.
"The ghost is still here." Kurihara glared at him and said.
"You are indeed very sincere." Yu'er looked at You Jue and showed a satisfied smile.
She walked up to him and patted his shoulder: "I'm going to make a new shirt and skirt, will you come with me?"
"Naturally." You Jue said.
"Then let's go, Master You Jue." Yu'er looked at You Jue with a smile on her face.
Kurihara, however, stared at You Zetsu with an unhappy expression on his face.
The three of them walked along and passed several cloth shops. Yu'er only glanced at them and did not go in.
It wasn't until she reached a silk cloth shop with an extremely grand facade that it had three floors that Yu'er entered the store.
It seems that the shopkeeper is not here, so there is only one waiter.
"Brother, take out all the best and most expensive fabrics in your store and let me have a look." Yu'er said to the clerk standing at the counter.
"Hey, girl, look here, the prices are relatively moderate and the fabrics are good." The clerk walked to a fabric aisle.
"What, are you afraid that we can't afford the money?" Yu'er asked.
He dragged You Jue to the front and said to the waiter: "You can see clearly, it is this young master who pays the bill."
The white shirt You Jue wears is of high quality, and the front and cuffs are carefully embroidered with bright yellow hibiscus flower patterns.
"I'm sorry." When the waiter saw You Jue's clothes, he hurriedly walked out of the counter and bowed to You Jue.
Then he pointed upstairs and said: "You three, please come upstairs."
So he led Yu'er and the others up to the third floor at the top, walked to a cloth, pointed at the various fabrics on display and said to Yu'er: "This floor is all made of high-quality materials. Take a look.
Are you satisfied?"
"I want this one." Yu'er stepped forward and pointed at a piece of light blue thin silk.
"Yes." The clerk hurriedly took the piece of satin down.
"Do it now, we'll pick it up in two hours," Yu'er said.
"Well..." the waiter said with a confused look on his face, "I'm afraid it's too late."
"If you do it within two hours, you will get double the silver, and this young master will also give you a reward." Yu'er patted You Jue's shoulder and said to the waiter.
"Yes, yes, we will do it for you right now." The waiter said hurriedly.
"Also, this one." Yu'er pointed to a brown satin one and said, "I'll tailor it for this young master."
He pointed at Kurihara.
"It's also two hours?" the waiter said.
"Yes." Yu'er said.
He turned back to look at You Jue and said with a bright smile: "Young Master You Jue, do you have any objection?"
You Jue said to the waiter: "Do as she says."
The waiter smiled apologetically at You Jue and said, "Master, please pay some silver first."
"How much?" You Jue said, reaching into his sleeves to take out his wallet.
"These are the best silks and satins in the entire Jingyue City, and we have to work on them quickly. The total is one thousand three hundred taels."
"One thousand three hundred taels?" You Jue was obviously surprised.
He didn't carry that much silver with him.
You Jue turned his head and looked at Yu'er, who was looking at him with a smile on his face, and said to the waiter: "You do it first, and you will pay when you get it."
When the clerk heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "This is the best silk material in our shop. According to our shop's rules, the bill must be paid before cutting can begin."
You Jue turned to Yu'er, slightly troubled: "Let's do it next time."
Seeing this scene, the waiter immediately stopped smiling, straightened his back and said: "Guys, this store is a small business. If you want to laugh, please come outside."
"Oops!" Yu'er suddenly shouted, "I'm so sorry, I didn't mean it!"
Looking at her hand, a piece of fine navy blue silk satin had a long crack cut through it.
"Ouch!" the waiter yelled, holding the torn fabric and howling, "This is our boss's treasure, a five-section worsted dark floral satin from the old Chen's workshop in Suzhou!"
The waiter looked sad, but his words were unambiguous.
"What should I do?" Yu'er asked Kurihara with a bitter face.
"Don't look at me. Do you think I look like a rich man?" Kurihara spread his hands and asked.
You Jue's face was cold and slightly darkened.
"If the boss finds out about this, my wages for this year, no, three years will be gone! How will our family live?" the man cried again.
This time he really cried!
"Well, I have an idea." Yu'er said.
"What can I do?" the waiter asked quickly.
"It was my hand that accidentally scratched such a precious silk. Why don't I give you my hand as compensation?" Yu'er said, "You lend me a knife, and I'll chop it up for you right now."
"Ah!" The boy opened his mouth wide and couldn't close it even if he wanted to.
Without saying anything, Yu'er took the cloth-cutting knife on the counter and cut it with her left hand!
She strikes very quickly! Without any hesitation!
Chapter completed!
