Chapter 494: Yuan Family (3)
As soon as he saw Shen Yijia, the dark-faced shop assistant immediately put on a smile. "Oh my, Madam, you’re here. The ice mirror you ordered is ready. We’re just waiting for you to pick it up."
The two ice mirrors were as tall as Shen Yijia’s thighs and had four wheels under them. They were especially eye-catching in the shop. She could see them at a glance without the shop assistant pointing them out.
Shen Yijia’s eyes lit up.
Actually, it was already a little late to use the ice mirror. The temperature in the capital would drop in mid-August, which was about half a month away.
However, seeing Shen Yijia’s excited expression, Song Jingchen couldn’t bear to hurt her.
In any case, this thing could still be used to store hot water or charcoal in winter.
Shen Yijia was not dissatisfied with anything. She immediately paid generously. She got the money from the court and from Madam Chen. She was not short of money at all now. Most importantly, she bought what she wanted.
The shopkeeper happily took the stack of banknotes. At this time, there were not many people who had ordered ice mirrors. Shen Yijia asked for two at once. She could be considered a big customer. It cost nearly a thousand taels of silver.
Noticing that the waiter was still staring at the banknotes in his hand, the shopkeeper kicked him angrily. "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and help this madam carry the things into the carriage."
"There’s no need. I’ll do it myself." Shen Yijia waved her hand to stop him. She would carry her things herself.
