Qiao Wei instructed, "Come with me; I still have some questions for you."
The woman and Mianmian obediently followed her into a small parlor. Qiao Wei took a seat at the head of the room, while the woman and Mianmian stood in front of her.
As it turned out, when Qiao Xuan and Princess Shuangfu were shopping at a foreign vendor's stall, they encountered a language barrier. While most shop owners in Huning City could exchange a few words, exceptions existed.
Mianmian, who happened to be selling food and carrying a large basket, had stepped in with a smile to assist.
Mianmian was a well-mannered and clever young girl who had been in the business for a long time, and she was adept at communicating. Both Qiao Xuan and Princess Shuangfu had taken a liking to her.
Originally, they had merely intended to support Mianmian's business. Upon noticing her handling the massive basket, they purchased more than half of its contents, presenting her with five taels of silver without her noticing.
