She Is From The Countryside

Chapter 35

Came Out Like a Painting

Entering the shop, Jiang Rui wondered what reason she should use to persuade Shi Yan to try on the clothes she had chosen. She was worried that Shi Yan would go out of her way to choose the relatively cheap ones instead of the ones that were suitable for her.

However, as soon as she entered the shop, without waiting for her to speak, she saw Shi Yan walking straight towards the dress that was hanging on the model’s body. It was a light green jade dress, and the design was in the style of the Republic of China. It looked like a cheongsam, but it was not a traditional cheongsam design, as it had some modern elements added to it.

The design was not complicated, and the patterns on the dress were not messy; It was elegant and elegant.

Jiang Rui’s eyes suddenly lit up.

This dress and Xiao Yan’s temperament were perfect for each other!

Jiang Rui also realized that Shi Yan did not care about the price of the dress at all. She directly asked the shopping guide next to her politely, “Hello. May I try on this dress?”

Although Jiang Rui did not see the price of this dress, she still had a good eye for clothing. The dress was of high quality, both in terms of workmanship and fabric. Although it might not be the most expensive one in the shop, it was definitely not the cheapest one.

The salesperson had a good eye as well. Even though Shi Yan was dressed in a very ordinary outfit, she had seen all kinds of rich young ladies coming to the shop. Very few of them had a temperament that could surpass Shi Yan.

She was very enthusiastic, “Yes, Miss. Please wait a moment.”

The shop assistant took off her skirt and said, “Our designs are all unique. We only produce one piece of a style. We will never have the same style. Miss, your figure is very good. This skirt will definitely look especially beautiful on you.”

Shi Yan smiled slightly, “Thank you.”

She was neither arrogant nor impatient. She was elegant, reserved, and graceful.

The shop assistant could not help but be amazed by her. What a beautiful lady, with a temperament like an orchid. She was just like a lady who had walked out of a painting.

It was not until Shi Yan came out of the fitting room that the salesperson truly understood what a lady from a painting was.

It was a long, light green, jade long in the style of the Republic of China. The light, ink-colored silk buttons were meticulously fastened, and it looked very normal. However, she had an extremely good figure. The long dress on her body outlined her entire person beautifully, and the half-opened hem showed her thin, white ankles.

Perhaps it was because she messed up her hair during the fitting, but the hairband had been taken off and her waist-length hair was soft and loose.

She smiled sweetly, a beautiful woman.

She did not have to do anything. She just stood there and looked like a beautiful painting.

However, this painting was not beautiful at all. It was quiet and elegant.

Not only were the shop assistants and Jiang Rui stunned, but the two people who had just stepped into the shop were also stunned. Their eyes were filled with surprise, as well as some emotions that they could not understand.

They did not recover for a long time.

It was Jiang Rui’s voice that pulled everyone back to their senses.

Jiang Rui, who had just come back to her senses, cried out in surprise, “Xiao Yan, aren’t you too beautiful? This qipao suits you so well!”

Although it was not a traditional qipao design, there were many elements of the qipao in this dress. It could be considered a derivative of the qipao, and could also be called a qipao.

Compared to their shock, Shi Yan, the person involved, was much calmer.

She smiled and thanked Jiang Rui. She glanced at the fitting mirror at the side and looked back and forth. It didn’t seem like she was admiring the beauty, but more like she was looking at the fit.

In any case, in other people’s eyes, she gave people this feeling because she was too calm.

This made Jiang Rui ask, “Xiao Yan, have you worn this type of clothing before?”

It was not her fault for asking. Shi Yan did not seem like it was her first time wearing this type of clothing. She did not see any novelty in Shi Yan’s eyes, but a kind of indifference that she was used to.

“I wore it when I was young,” Shi Yan said with a smile.

She did not hide anything.

While Jiang Rui was slightly stunned, she smiled and said, “I’ll go change my clothes.”

Two minutes later, she came out of the fitting room again.

She wore a simple white t-shirt and a pair of nine-cent black cloth pants. The ink-black hair that had been scattered earlier had been tied back properly. She looked elegant and had a bit of youth and vitality in her.

Her temperament was very similar to the qipao she had worn just now, but it did not seem to be completely the same.

Jiang Rui did not ask Shi Yan about how she had worn similar clothes when she was young. Instead, she really wanted to ask Shi Yan how she had developed her temperament.

She felt that she had grown up in a big family and had been influenced by the family background. However, she did not have such a quiet and elegant temperament.

The salesperson walked over and took the qipao that Shi Yan had changed into. Perhaps because of the influence of Shi Yan’s temperament, but she could not help but lower her voice.

She asked warmly and gently, “Miss, do you want to look at other things?”

Jiang Rui also said, “That’s right, Xiao Yan, take a look at the rest. Their clothes are not bad. Take a look at a few more sets.”

Just as Shi Yan was about to respond, a voice was heard.

“Rui’er.”

Jiang Rui looked towards the source of the voice and saw two familiar faces.

Actually, she had already noticed them. It was just that they had stood there motionlessly after entering the shop. She had yet to fully recover from the shock of Shi Yan’s beauty, so she did not greet them.

That’s right. Shi Yan had just finished changing into her qipao when they entered the shop.

They just happened to see Shi Yan changing into her qipao.

They were stunned for a long time before they regained their senses.

“Sister Shuang Shuang, Su Mi,” Jiang Rui greeted them with a smile.

They were polite, but they were not close.

“Are you guys shopping too?”

“Yeah, I had nothing to do at home during the holidays, so I asked Mi’er to go out for a walk. I didn’t expect to meet you here.”

The girl was wearing a light-colored long dress. Her voice was soft, and there was a warm smile on her face. She looked very gentle.

As she spoke, she looked at Shi Yan and asked Jiang Rui, “Rui’er, who is this?”

“This is Shi Yan, my grandmother’s guest. She’s also an honored guest of the Jiang family in Sea City,” Jiang Rui smiled and introduced them to Shi Yan. “Xiao Yan, this is the eldest daughter of the Han family, Han Shuangshuang. That’s Su Mi from the Su family.”

Shi Yan looked at them, her gaze lingering on Su Mi’s face for a few extra seconds.

She smiled and nodded, “Hello, both of you.”

The two of them also greeted Shi Yan.

“Hello, Miss Shi.”

However, when they looked at Shi Yan, their eyes were still sizing her up.

After a long while, Su Mi said, “I heard that an honored guest of the Jiang family came a few days ago. I finally met her today. Miss Shi is very different from what I imagined.”

Not only was she different from what she imagined, but no one would have thought that the guest from the Jiang family from the countryside would be like this.

The person from the countryside was also an orphan. Many people thought that she was a country bumpkin. Therefore, when they heard the rumor that Old Madame Jiang had brought her to the Jiang family to set her up with young master Jiang, everyone unanimously thought that Old Madame Jiang was crazy.

No one thought that she was worthy of young master Jiang. They only thought that she was a social climber, and that it was wishful thinking.

Shi Yan did not respond to her words and responded with a faint smile.

It was not rude.

She continued to pick out clothes.

However, she did not try again. She picked out five sets, three of which were skirts, and two were more ladylike, casual clothes.

She said to the salesperson, “Please help me wrap these up and send them to the Jiang family’s old mansion.”

It was fine if she did not look at the price, but when she said to ask the salesperson to wrap them up and send them to the Jiang family’s old mansion, her tone was surprisingly natural.

Once again, Jiang Rui was a little surprised.

However, on second thought, Jiang Rui felt that it was only natural.

On the other hand, Han Shuang Shuang and Su Mi were extremely surprised.

Was this something that a poor orphan from a remote village could do?

“Aren’t you going to try them on?”Jiang Rui asked.

“There’s no need to try them on. They’re all of the same size. I should be able to wear them all.”

Shi Yan was about to pay the bill when Jiang Rui quickly ran over to stop her.

“I’ll do it! I’ll do it!”

She was about to hand over her card when Shi Yan raised her hand to block her.

She met Shi Yan’s smiling gaze and heard her say, “I’ll do it myself.”

Even considering Shi Yan’s level of acceptance, the high-end shopping mall that Jiang Rui brought Shi Yan to was only relatively high-end. The prices wouldn’t be ridiculously expensive, but it wouldn’t be that cheap either!

When the shop assistant paid the bill just now, the six sets of clothes were 83,259 yuan in total.

This was nothing to Jiang Rui, the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, but to an orphan who grew up in a remote village, this was definitely not a small amount of money.

Jiang Rui had heard from Old Madame Jiang more than once that the village where Shi Yan lived was not rich, and many families’ annual income was only tens of thousands of yuan.

Recovering from her shock, Jiang Rui quickly said, “Let me do it. Grandmother gave us money when we went out. She asked us to pay for our expenses today with that money.”

Of course, the money the old lady gave was fake.

Jiang Rui had Jiang Cheng’s secondary card in her hand. She had never lacked money, as her pocket money was given by Jiang Cheng. With Jiang Cheng around, the other members of the Jiang family, including Grandma Jiang, did not care about her.

“I didn’t buy one or two pieces. If I want to buy a lot, I’ll do it myself.”

Shi Yan smiled gently. Her attitude was clearly not tough at all, but for some reason, Jiang Rui felt that there was no room for doubt.

It was really strange.

While Jiang Rui was in a daze, the card in Shi Yan’s hand had already been handed to the cashier.

It was a very ordinary savings card, the kind that required a password.

Usually, when Jiang Rui swiped her card, she did not need to enter a password for anything under a million yuan, so Jiang Rui was confused again.

If Xiao Yan was like this, was she rich or not?
