Xia Luotong came out this time mainly with the idea of giving it a try, and also with the intention of testing the palace's attitude, so he didn't bring many things out. He randomly found a few shops and sold them after seeing that the price was right. .
With Zhuxuan handling this matter, she didn't have to worry too much because she lacked "common sense".
For the first seventeen years, the original owner had been raised in the town of Anyuan where her biological mother died. Her biological father, the Minister of Rites, ignored her, and her stepmother, Mrs. Li, would not treat her well. The masters had such an attitude, so how could the servants take care of her with all their heart?
It's nothing more than giving her food to keep her hungry, clothes to keep her cold, and no one cares about the rest.
If it weren't for the wet nurse left behind by her mother who kept her until she died of illness at the age of seven, she might not even have a chance to grow up alive.
Therefore, although Xia Luotong received the memory of the original owner, there was really not much useful content in it. The original owner stayed in his small room most of the time.
After selling the things he brought out, he had a little bit of silver in his hand, but along the way, Xia Luotong mostly just looked at it and didn't buy it. This little money needed to be used to buy many necessities, so he didn't save it. It's not enough to light flowers. There is nothing in Tingyuxuan. Now they want to make their own fire and cook, so they even have to bring their own pots.
While walking around and chatting with Zhuxuan, Xia Luotong found that the folk customs of the Zhou Dynasty were very open, and the restrictions on women were much less than those of other dynasties she knew. During the period, she even saw several girls surrounding a Pianpian. As the young master spoke, the admiration in his eyes was obvious.
They had a lot of things to buy this time, and the things sold at the stalls were relatively cheap. While Xia Luotong was waiting for Zhuxuan to choose things, she stood on the side of the road and was a little distracted. She always felt that this body seemed to be too weak. Too normal.
Just as he was thinking about whether to take a pulse for himself, he heard bursts of exclamations not far away, accompanied by shouts and curses suddenly coming from far away!
"Everyone, get out of my way! Don't block the way!"
"ah!"
"Mom! Get away!"
The woman's sharp and arrogant shouts and the loud noise brought her back to reality.
"Master! Be careful!"
Zhuxuan's frightened expression appeared in her eyes, and she reached out to her in a panic. Her heart skipped a beat, and she subconsciously sensed the approaching crisis, but her body was so slow that she had no time to react!
The horse's neighing sound was getting closer and closer, as if it would trample her to pieces in the next moment!
Suddenly, a white figure flashed out of the corner of her eye, and then her arms tightened, and a huge force pulled her aside, narrowly avoiding the tall horse that passed by.
However, Xia Luotong, who was pulled away by this force, could not control his body shape at all, and ran straight into a thick embrace. The light and elegant fragrance of ink lingered on the tip of his nose, giving off a calming and peaceful atmosphere.
"master!"
At this moment, Zhu Xuan's voice suddenly broke into his ears: "Master! Are you okay?"
Reason quickly came back, and Xia Luotong immediately realized his current situation, and quickly took a step back and stood still, gently patting his chest and taking a deep breath to ease his heartbeat that was too violent due to fright.
If she had been hit and trampled by the galloping horse just now, with her small body, she might have had to report to the King of Hell on the spot.
"Is the girl injured?"
A voice as gentle as jade sounded from above the head, soothing like a breeze blowing in the ears.
"I'm fine. Thank you young master for saving me." Xia Luotong, who had recovered a little, quickly thanked him and looked up at the person who saved him.
Just this look made her stunned.
The handsome face, soft and warm eyebrows, eyes as quiet as the lake surface, and the extremely elegant atmosphere around him make people immersed in him at just one glance, as if he were on the shore of the blue-wave lake in March, feeling the clear tranquility of the breeze blowing on his face.
After being stunned for only a moment, Xia Luotong immediately came to his senses, blinked, realized his gaffe, and quickly apologized.
"I'm sorry, I'm rude. I'd like to thank you for saving my life, sir." After saying that, Xia Luotong bowed slightly to say thank you, as Zhuxuan had taught him these past few days.
"Girl, there's no need to be polite, it's just a little effort." The man raised his hand to support her and replied gently.
"Young master's little effort saved my life, and I can't repay this little girl..."
Xia Luotong said that she was really in trouble. She was grateful to the other party from the bottom of her heart, but in her current situation, there seemed to be nothing she could do to repay him.
The material of the other party's clothes looked like it was of extraordinary quality. Not to mention that the money I just got from selling the items wasn't enough, there was no way I could just take it out and stuff it into the other party...
"Girl, you don't have to be so polite. It's okay. I have something to do, so I'll leave first." The man said gently, seeing Xia Luotong's embarrassment and embarrassment in his eyes, with a little smile hidden in his eyes.
Seeing the other party cupping his hands and preparing to leave, Xia Luotong felt anxious and asked quickly.
"I wonder if you can tell me your name, sir. If you have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely repay you."
The man paused after hearing the footsteps, turned around and nodded with a smile. Without saying anything else, he turned around and left, disappearing into the crowd.
Watching the man leave, Xia Luotong felt a little regretful. After all, if the man hadn't pulled her out just now, she would have died.
"Master, I was really scared to death just now! Fortunately, the young master helped you, otherwise what would have happened would have been unimaginable." Zhuxuan was still panicking when she thought of the scene just now, but fortunately she met a kind-hearted person who took action, "You still Okay? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
"It's okay. I'm not hurt. I'm just a little frightened. Just take it easy. That young master looked very extraordinary just now. Do you know who he is?" Xia Luotong was thinking about repaying his kindness and thought of Zhuxuan's previous experience. Having worked as a servant in other houses for many years, he knew more things than she did, so he asked.
Such an elegant and elegant young master cannot be ignored anywhere, and he is not an unknown person.
"I don't recognize the young master. Although I have been in the capital for a long time and heard a lot of rumors, my previous master did not take me with me when I left the house, so I don't know the appearance of those nobles. " Zhuxuan apologized.
"It's okay. There's nothing we can do about it. If we meet again in the future, we'll find a way to repay him." Upon seeing this, Xia Luotong stopped worrying about the matter and greeted Zhuxuan to continue shopping, purchasing various necessities. Use objects.
However, what she didn't expect was that her "fate" with that young master would come so quickly...
Xia Luotong blinked and looked at the man in front of him who was still elegant, but with a bit of embarrassment and helplessness on his face. Wasn't he the young master who had saved her just now?
The two had just parted for a while. Xia Luotong walked to the next street and happened to see a bookstore on the roadside. He walked in and planned to buy two books and go back to read. Unexpectedly, he met him again.
But what puzzled her was that he didn't seem to be here to pick out books?
