In fact, within the Tang Family’s Silver Tower, their young Masters could simply charge their purchases to the account.
If they had the approval of their elders, even if the young ones bought gifts for others, it would just be a matter of noting it in the monthly ledger.
The products made in their own factory could be a bit cheaper for family members.
The people of the Tang Family certainly weren’t lacking money to buy jewelry; indeed, the real challenge was to encounter someone truly willing to keep track of their expenses, a feat not commonly attainable by the average family, let alone preserving the children’s private money.
As a young Master and direct descendant, Tang Shunyan naturally had plenty of personal funds. However, in recent years, he had been very generous with his monthly salary and pocket money, spending a significant amount on gifts for others.
Perhaps knowing his excessive generosity in buying gifts, his mother nagged him all day long.
His grandparents, however, secretly gave him pocket money. After all, how could a young Master of the Tang family’s direct lineage be stingy?
Just like Meng Zhaojun, who had tricked him numerous times, requiring money for the annual gifts and whenever she invited him out.
Tang Shunyan resignedly accepted this, even with the tacit approval of adults—how could he be too harsh on this young lady who clung to him?
Meng Zhaojun didn’t enter the Silver Tower immediately after alighting from the carriage, opting to wait for Tang Shunyan, the unsuspecting victim; she couldn’t let him slip away quietly.
Tang Shunyan descended from the carriage reluctantly, facing Meng Zhaojun’s triumphant smile with a helpless frown!
For Meng Zhaojun, this kind of boy who frowned yet couldn’t refuse her, was popular among girls in any era.
The reasons... boys who were generous to the ladies around them and had a wealthy status were exactly what those who desired cars, buildings, wealth, and looks would want in a young man.
This was precisely the type of man who could capture the hearts of young women in any era or even a past life.
Meng Zhaojun was eager to tightly grip this man, but sadly couldn’t always stay by his side as he grew.
If she stayed here, it was impossible; their family owned no property here, and the respect she received was merely due to her father’s status.
With others to succeed him and with her father occupying a higher office in the Capital, he had no time to manage here.
She certainly did not wish to live under another roof with no name or status in the Tang family’s residence.
She would rather return to the Capital City when she had grown stronger and more beautiful. If this man did not choose her, it would be his loss!
Meng Zhaojun merely glanced at Tang Shunyan, walking into the Silver Tower with a proud expression.
At this time and place, there were naturally many customers in the Silver Tower.
Some had already noticed their arrival, but the most perceptive shopkeeper and waiter were focusing not on Meng Zhaojun but on Tang Shunyan, leaving some employees to attend to the customers.
The shopkeeper, regardless of the many people buying items and paying, wanted to serve the young guests well.
The shopkeeper personally came out to welcome them—the young guests with so many guards in tow.
Both those who knew and did not know who they were kept their eyes on them, showing more enthusiasm for the spectacle than for shopping.
Meng Zhaojun disguised herself a bit, and no one recognized her identity yet.
Usually, only some noblewomen and wealthy young ladies had seen her dressed as a woman.
Not many had the opportunity to see the County Magistrate’s daughter; only those invited to the Tang family’s parties could meet her, and many did not qualify to attend those events.
Some had already recognized Tang Shunyan, the young Master of the Tang family visiting the Silver Tower, thinking either that he was there for their family’s business or that the young Master genuinely wanted to buy something he liked.
Tang Shunyan did not want to follow Meng Zhaojun around in the Silver Tower, as he had no intention of buying anything today.
Meng Zhaojun remembered that the shopkeeper had provided their young Master with better items the last time.
Being led into a private room with better items suited her perfectly.
The shopkeeper also thought the young Master was there to buy something and led them in to sit down.
As for the other maids and guards, he couldn’t entertain them all, as both parties brought too many people.
Some had already been seen outside the Silver Tower, while others had entered and were now standing at the doorway.
"Young Master, what can I do for you today?"
Tang Shunyan shook his head.
Seeing the young Master shake his head, the shopkeeper was perplexed—was he here just to look around?
As for Tang Shunyan, the young Master, coming here to check the account books or something of that sort, that had never happened before; not that he didn’t have the authority, but because he was too young.
The adults perhaps didn’t want to put such heavy pressure on him so soon, opting instead for a more gradual guidance.
"I want to buy jewelry, but you must bring out the prettiest pieces that suit me. As for the price, your young Master will pay!"
As the shopkeeper was pondering, Meng Zhaojun spoke up, causing him to tremble slightly, nearly spilling water on the table.
