Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable Chapter 1163 - 1073: Female Prime Minister 11

The entire headpiece set took Shuangshuang a full two months to craft, ticulously putting in the effort.

The main hairpin is the Yundong Immortal Palace, the heart picker is a fairy celebrating a birthday, the floral cluster conceals the temples, cloud flower hairpins, the headband is adorned with golden lotus flowers, and the front and back feature the eight immortals crossing the sea. Each piece in this full set of accessories is a masterpiece.

This ti, when going to the county, Yin Zheng brought Mrs. Wang and Shuangshuang with him. Originally, Mrs. Zhao and Old Master Yin did not approve, but Yin Zheng acted first and reported later, and the trio sneaked off.

The three of them headed straight to the Treasure Pavilion upon arriving in the county. The shopkeeper was utterly amazed upon seeing the headpiece Shuangshuang brought!

It was simply too exquisite. Last ti, the hairpin Shuangshuang brought was already exceptionally intricate, but this complete headpiece took it to another level, incomparable to the hairpin from last ti.

This set of accessories, if in the Capital City, wouldn’t go for less than three to four thousand taels. Even in their small locale, it was worth at least a thousand taels.

After marveling, the shopkeeper imdiately sent word to the County Magistrate’s Wife. The County Magistrate’s Wife ca in haste, and upon seeing the entire headpiece set, she liked it imnsely and had the hairdresser in the shop redo her hair and adorn it with the set on the spot.

Indeed, once the headpiece was on, the County Magistrate’s Wife, already beautiful, looked even more stunning. She admired herself in the copper mirror from every angle, thoroughly satisfied.

Extrely satisfied with the headpiece, the County Magistrate’s Wife directly gave Shuangshuang twelve hundred taels of silver. The extra two hundred taels above the shopkeeper’s estimate was a deposit to reserve the next headpiece set from Shuangshuang.

The new headpiece is to be even more luxurious, intended as a birthday gift for her grandmother.

The County Magistrate’s Wife lovingly caressed the exquisite bracelet that Shuangshuang had crafted separately for her, her eyes full of admiration.

After admiring it for a while, the County Magistrate’s Wife spoke kindly to Shuangshuang: "For the next headpiece I reserved, it can’t solely use golden silk thread; it needs so jade to be suitable for soone older.

Wait here; I’ll have soone fetch the jade needed from ho, and you can take it directly.

Once the headpiece is completed, it doesn’t need to be delivered to the Treasure Pavilion again; just send it directly to the back residence of the county governnt. I’m the County Magistrate’s Wife, just state that you’re delivering a headpiece for , and the servants will report it."

The County Magistrate’s Wife introduced herself, intending to express her satisfaction with Shuangshuang’s craftsmanship and her intention to have Shuangshuang continue crafting her gold-threaded jewelry in the future.

It was also an implicit warning for Shuangshuang not to get greedy and covet the jade she provided for the headpiece.

"Madam, rest assured. I will devote my utmost effort to this headpiece, and I won’t let you down. If you’re not satisfied, I won’t take a single penny," Shuangshuang assured as well, straightforwardly. The County Magistrate’s Wife was indeed affluent; as expected, a lady from a noble family lacked for nothing.

What pleased Shuangshuang the most was the County Magistrate’s Wife’s satisfaction. It ant, in future formal occasions, she’d likely wear Shuangshuang’s crafted headpiece. Other ladies would surely notice, making the County Magistrate’s Wife an excellent advertisent, ensuring future business without worry.

This ti, the County Magistrate’s Wife didn’t give Shuangshuang gold but a silver note.

The silver banks of this dynasty are all court-established, ensuring their security and reliability, so unless the dynasty changes, these silver notes will remain valid.

Shuangshuang realized for the first ti that this era’s silver banks were all governnt-run. After taking the jade provided by the County Magistrate’s Wife for the jewelry and leaving with the family of three, Shuangshuang discussed with Yin Zheng.

"Dad, maybe next ti we find a chance to exchange our gold at ho for silver notes. Silver notes are easier to hide, but gold is too easily discovered."

Yin Zheng casually nodded. Last ti, he brought back gold because he wanted to experience the thrill of holding a handful of gold. Now that the thrill has passed, for safety’s sake, Yin Zheng also considered exchanging their gold for silver notes.

Rembering what he said last ti, with money at hand, the family of three headed straight for the largest restaurant to have a feast. Upon reaching the entrance, Mrs. Wang hesitated, "Maybe we should just have so pies instead.

I heard those scholars like to gather at the county’s restaurants. If by chance, third brother shows up today and starts questioning where we got the money for dining out, it would invite trouble."

Yin Zheng nonchalantly nudged Mrs. Wang into the restaurant, "Don’t worry about that. Third brother is a wastrel; despite spending so long at school, he hasn’t achieved anything. No classmates want to associate with him.

If he really had so many friends, he would be out socializing daily with them instead of watching over the family’s small assets at ho, calculating everything.

This is the reason top students don’t mingle with underachievers. Even among scholars, there’s a division between those with good and poor grades."

Mrs. Wang trusted Yin Zheng completely. Since he said there was no issue, Mrs. Wang followed suit, entering the restaurant willingly.

This place indeed lived up to being the largest restaurant in the county, the staff quality was excellent. Although Shuangshuang, Yin Zheng, and Mrs. Wang were not short on money, they couldn’t afford to wear fine clothes with those dissolute relatives around, so their clothes, while clean, were worn and patched in places.

Even so, the staff responsible for greeting guests showed no disdain, warmly inviting the three to sit in the main hall.

"What would the three of you like to eat? Our chef specializes in noodles, a signature dish you must try. Since it’s your first visit, would you like to give it a shot?"

The young waiter was an excellent speaker, considerate of the fact that the trio might not afford more extraordinary dishes, so he thoughtfully suggested their least expensive noodles first.

Yin Zheng smiled, placing a silver piece worth five taels on the table, without looking ostentatious, nor intending to have the waiter serve dishes worth that much.

Eating so much in one go, given the trio’s simple diet, would surely cause them trouble.

Yin Zheng brought out the silver not to flaunt wealth but to show he could cover the bill, smiling at the waiter, "We’re here just to have a al. Please arrange two signature dishes and three bowls of the noodles you ntioned."

Knowing they weren’t short on money, the waiter’s smile beca sincerely genuine, "Our top signature dish is eight treasure duck, a delicacy, and we also have a stead fish made from fresh daily-caught fish with an excellent flavor. Would that suit you three?"

Yin Zheng saw that neither Shuangshuang nor Mrs. Wang had any objections, so he nodded in agreent, and the waiter promptly went to place their order.
