Your Majesty, the princess ran away again!

Chapter 138 Successful opening

"Okay, okay, I get it. That's great. Qi'er is finally going to get married." Concubine Ru held her face with her hands and smiled like an aunt.

Li Yangyang asked tentatively: "Madam Rufei, do you have any requirements for your daughter-in-law?"

Ru Fei lowered her head and thought for a while, "As for the requirements... for a woman, it's OK if she has good character."

Uh... isn't this equivalent to having no requirements? Li Yangyang immediately felt relieved.

After they had finished their breakfast, the queen went to the storeroom to select a few more gifts before leaving the palace.

Mu Nanyan and her companions had prepared the shop entrance early, with flowers placed on both sides of the entrance. The area three meters outside the door was filled with common people, including maids from wealthy families.

Mu Nanyan was ready and stood at the door with Mu Xiyao to welcome the queen, but she didn't expect so many people to come. Except for a few princes who were not in Beijing, all the other princes came, and those who had families also brought their families. Mu Nanyan stood on the stage and looked at Jun Zhuoyuan and blinked at him. Their purple clothes really matched!

Jun Zhuoyuan didn't come forward but stood quietly in the corner looking at his fairy. As expected, a fairy like this was more dazzling.

The Queen came on time, and it was the busiest time when her phoenix carriage arrived. When the people around saw the Queen, they all knelt down to pay their respects, all with surprise on their faces. They didn't expect that the Ninth Imperial Concubine was so valued. Not only did she open a shop, but the Queen also came to watch the ceremony. This was probably the only one in the world.

The queen didn't expect so many people to come. She told everyone to stand up straight. "Stand up straight."

Mu Nanyan called out affectionately, "Mother, you are finally here."

"I have chosen some gifts for you, but it's too late now because I lost control of it." The queen took her arm with a doting look on her face.

Mu Nanyan brought the person to Mu Xiyao and said, "Mother, your Highness, this is my fifth sister, Mu Xiyao."

"Your humble servant pays homage to Her Majesty the Queen. May Her Majesty live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years! May Her Majesty Rufei live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years!" Mu Xiyao lowered her head and dared not look. After all, this was the first time she had seen the Queen up close. Who wouldn't be nervous? If she said something wrong, she would lose her head!

When the queen saw Mu Nanyan winking at her, she immediately understood what she meant. It seemed that this person was Qi'er's sweetheart. The queen nudged Ru Fei with her elbow and whispered in her ear: "This is your future daughter-in-law."

Seeing that she was about to make a big move, the Queen quickly held her back with her hands, "Don't get excited. What if she gets scared and runs away?"

Ru Fei nodded and calmed her excited heart, "Since she is Yan Er's sister, then we are family. Come and raise your head so we can see."

Mu Xiyao raised her head obediently, and scanned the people with her big eyes. She was fearless at home, but these... were all concubines and queens, she couldn't afford to offend them! She had to be afraid!

Concubine Ru was very satisfied with her. She looked well-behaved and cute. She really didn't know how Qi'er had managed to trick her into getting her. Now that she had a daughter-in-law, she had to seize the opportunity and leave a good impression.

"Since we are family, I will call you Yaoyao. I am the mother of the Fourth Prince Junqi. I heard that you are very close to him!"

Mu Xiyao was shocked. She was too nervous just now and didn't have time to think. This... this is Jun Qi's mother! Is she here to call for punishment?

Mu Xiyao knelt down hurriedly and said, "Your Majesty, I was wrong. I know my crime. I will never play with him again."

This action scared everyone, even Mu Nanyan was not spared. How did this girl become so cowardly? She was not like this at home!

Concubine Ru helped the girl up and bent down to straighten her skirt. "Don't kneel. I didn't say you were guilty. I just wanted to ask what you think of our Qi'er, whether he bullied you and whether he was good to you. Don't be so nervous. I'm not a cannibal." Concubine Ru liked this little girl more and more. It would be very interesting to marry her home.

"Empress Ru Junqi has never bullied me. Ah! No, it's the Fourth Prince. The Fourth Prince has never bullied me and has been very good to me." Mu Xiyao was used to calling him by his full name in private, but she blurted it out in front of his mother.

"It's good that he didn't bully you. If he did, you can come to the palace to find me and I will help you get revenge. This will make it easier for you to enter the palace." Concubine Ru stuffed the token to enter the palace into Mu Xiyao's hand.

Mu Xiyao stared blankly, not knowing what to do. Mu Nanyan knew that Concubine Ru had taken a fancy to her, and gently told her to keep the token and not to be polite. Mu Xiyao did as she was told, as it was given by the Concubine. If she returned it in front of so many people... would she be turned around...

After Mu Nanyan comforted her, she invited a few people to sit down. Yuan Wu set off the firecrackers. After a burst of crackling sounds, Wushuang took the gong and struck it three times.

Mu Nanyan stood in the middle of the stage and tore off the red cloth on the plaque, revealing the eye-catching name of the shop in front of everyone. Several princes recognized that the words were written by Emperor Tianyou, and they were all shocked. There were very few people who could get their father to write words, let alone for a shop.

After Mu Nanyan said a few simple words, she gave the stage to Xiaoxiao and Mimi. The two sisters found two maids to do the rough work, asked them to lie on the recliners, and cleansed their faces according to the method that Mu Nanyan had taught them in the past few days. The people below were surprised to see that the two of them rubbed their hands with something and produced a lot of bubbles.

After cleaning, the two of them were put on facial masks. After waiting for a while, they took off the paper-like thing and washed their faces with clean water. The two sisters took out the beauty cream, which was the main product of their store today. Within a quarter of an hour, the two maids looked brand new. Their originally rough faces became extremely delicate. Mu Nanyan didn't waste any words and directly presented the effect to everyone.

The ladies and wives below couldn't help themselves and raised the bills in their hands, "Give me one!" Mu Nanyan glanced at Wushuang and signaled her.

Wushuang struck the gong again, "Everyone be quiet!"

Mu Nanyan cleared her throat, "Everyone, listen to me first. Today is the first day of opening of Huaxiangrong. We have limited technicians here, only the two behind me. If you want to do the beauty treatments that the two girls just did, you need to make an appointment. Please register on my left. If you want our beauty cream, you can enter the shop and buy it yourself. Of course, everyone has seen the effect just now. If you only buy beauty cream, it will not have such a great effect. But I dare say that our beauty cream is the best in Dongli!"

The Queen spoke at the right time, "Yan'er is right. I have only been applying it for a few days. Although the effect is not as good as the two girls just now, the wrinkles around my eyes have disappeared a lot."

With the Queen's words, the mood below became more excited. Mu Nanyan jumped down from the stage and had the stage removed. Without any hindrance, the young ladies and women rushed into the shop one after another. Those who could queue up lined up, and those who couldn't queue up directly bought the beauty creams. In less than half a minute, all the beauty creams on the shelves were sold out.

Seeing so many people coming to watch the ceremony, Mu Nanyan had no choice but to give each prince two bottles of beauty cream. "This beauty cream is not only for women, but also for men. There are too many people at the opening today. If you have time, you can come to the shop for beauty treatments."

These people didn't bother to be polite with her. After accepting the gifts, they moved the gifts they brought to the backyard of the shop. Xiaoxiao and Mimi had already gone upstairs to prepare for beauty treatments. They didn't take more than one treatment in a day. Mu Nanyan was afraid that they would be too tired, so she limited the number of people to 20 per day. They could go home after doing these things.

Because there were no extra people, Mu Xiyao was in charge of selling goods and keeping accounts today, Wushuang helped, and Yuanwu was in charge of moving the goods. Rufei saw that the way Mu Xiyao worked was like a different person, her mind was smart and quick, and she remembered every account very clearly and in an organized manner, and her love for her deepened.
