Three years later...
Miss, this lily of the valley hairpin is so beautiful..."
Mariana said in amazement, Mariana was the girl whom Maria later bought for Selena for 35 silver coins to accompany her to school. She is two years older than Selena and is just right to take care of Selena.
Maria changed an agency this time, and spent enough money to choose a good-looking one, who was also very smart and had received training. She originally selected by the Viscount House, but because the agency had too many people supplying the Viscount Palace, It just so happened that she was left, so she was more expensive than an ordinary girl in the slave market.
Selena glanced at Mariana approvingly. The maids who had been taught by others were different. The way they looked at things and the skills in matching clothes were not comparable to those of rural girls.
Speaking of this, Selena thought of the time when she first entered the Earl's Mansion in her previous life, and her face suddenly felt a little hot. Back then, she was just a country bumpkin. She couldn't take her eyes away when she saw gold and silver, and she saw beautiful and gorgeous clothes. She just wants to put all on heryself. It was only later that she was laughed at more and her horizons broadened, and then she just learned how noble ladies matched their outfits.
Selena's eyes fell back on the lily of the valley hairpin on the jewelry shelf. The leaves made of light green ribbons and the flowers made of pink ribbons complement each other and are lifelike. They look cute and suitable for her age.
The shopkeeper saw this and said, "Young lady, you really have a good eye. This lily of the valley hairpin is a new product that just arrived in the store. The craftsmanship is very good. The clip is made of silver, and the lily of the valley decoration is made by ribbon..."
Selenad also thought it was good and asked, "How much does this hairpin cost?"
Upon hearing this, the smile on the jewelry store's face became even brighter, because Selena had bought something from her more than once. When she asked the price, it means that she will buy it, so she hurriedly said: "This lily of the valley hairpin is unique, and you will never find another one in Beerspa City. You are a regular customer of our store, so I give you the lowest price, how about 10 silver coins?"
Mariana was stunned when she heard it. It was really expensive. It was more expensive than gold hair clips! Selena picked up the lily of the valley hairpin and looked at it carefully. The boss was quite honest. In a few years, this hairpin wouldn't even be available for 15 silver coins. It is worth the price, without thinking for long, Mariana asked Mariana to pay.
Then she picked out a pair of pearl earrings, a pendant necklace relatively small diameter. The boss saw that Selena was generous with her purchases. Naturally, her favor doubled, so he gave her a pair of hairpin made by seed pearls . Although the barrettes are not worth much, the style is very novel.
After leaving the jewelry store, Selena gave one of the pearl barrettes to Mariana. Mariana held the jewelry bag in one hand and took the hairpin with the other. She accepted the barrette with great pleasure.
She knew that Miss Selena would surely gifted it to her. It was because the lady's jewelry is very exquisite and each piece is quite valuable. The price is not less than 10 silver coins.
But in Mariana's opinion, although it was a giveaway, this hairpin cost at least one silver coin, and the style was also popular in the city recently. If the lady hadn't bought more than a hundred silver coins of jewelry this time, the boss wouldn't have given it away.
Jose is busy in his own shop. During this period, the shop's business has improved a lot, and his family has hired another clerk. Standing at the door of the shop, he saw his daughter and Mariana talking and laughing, walking home.
"Sir, why are you waiting for Miss Selena at the door again? We're not exactly strangers to the streets, you know. With all the people around, are you seriously worried someone might just snatch the lady in broad daylight?
Mariana was quite scared when she was bought in at the beginning. She heard that servants in the families of those who had little money were the most tortured and had to do all kinds of dirty and tiring work.
But after living there for six months, she became bolder because Mr. Jose never lost his temper. Maria is also kind-hearted and never treats them harshly. Although she scolds them when they do something wrong, the worst is just a hungry meal.
The family is engaged in the skincare and cosmetics industry, and Miss Selena often provides new products for herself to try. Even if she jokes with Mr. Jose, Mr. Jose will not be angry.
Selena entered the shop, took off the hat with the veil on her head and put it in Jose's hand, giving Jose a sweet smile. As soon as Selena entered the backyard, she saw Thomas, when he saw her, he called out respectfully: "Miss..."
Now he has completely lost the decadent look he had when he was in the slave market. She took his breath away with her presence. Although she was not born by famous family, she had a noble temperament. He didn't expect that the daughter of an ordinary merchant's family had a better temperament than the ladies from the viscount's house. She is a delicate girl, but she was very business-savvy, which really impressed him.
Selena didn't even look at him twice, and he had never offended her. Thomas was also a little confused as to why Selena treated him like this. One time, he even found that she was glaring at him from behind.
Smelling the fresh and sweet fragrance of jasmine lingering in the air, Thomas paused for a few seconds before returning to the shop in front, but his mind was filled with the girl in the light green skirt. The skirt was wide and made of soft material. The silk and delicate lace decorations were very elegant, and the tight-fitting skirt highlighted her slender figure. Although she wore a thin gauze shawl of the same color on her upper body, the deep ravine on her chest could still be glimpsed.
Selena entered the yard and saw Eva making rouge. Next to her, Mariana was chattering. Naturally, she was talking about what happened when Selena was attending class at Ms. Victoria's home -How many people asked to buy repair ointment... There was also the pair of the pearl hairpins that she just got.
The Miss Selena said they had one for each of them. Eva washed her hands and got the pearl hairpins. She was so happy that she took the barrette and looked at it closely. She was actually only thirteen years old. The little girl is very happy when she gets beautiful hairpin.
When the two of them saw the young lady entering the backyard, Mariana immediately flattered her and said, "Miss, the water in the bathtub is ready. I have tried it and the temperature is just perfect."
Selena glanced at her with a half-smile, this girl was quite clever and was used to pleasing herself. She arrived home with her, how could she prepare the bath water for herself so quickly? It must have been prepared by Eva. Does she really think she is stupid? looking at Eva, whose face was red because her credit was robbed, and thinking to herself that although Eva is not good at flattering, she is capable.
