So, Chen Jue waved his hand and said generously: "Arou, is there anyone you like? Just choose, money is not a problem."
After saying that, a piece of silver was placed in front of the vendor's table.
The street vendor has never seen such a rich man before.
Seeing the silver that the attendant beside the young master took out, his eyes changed slightly, and he happily introduced the arrangement on the table to the lady next to him.
The vendors greeted me more enthusiastically.
Jiang Rou had never seen any hairpins in the palace, so she was not very interested in what she saw in front of her.
I wanted to leave, but my peripheral vision suddenly glanced at a hairpin in the corner of my mouth.
Jiang Rou picked up a hairpin on the stall.
The hairpin is all white, with a hint of milky white in the jade color.
The hairpin is carved with a snow lotus blooming quietly, and there is also a pendant like a lotus seed, which is elegant and elegant.
"This lady has really good taste. This hairpin is inherited from my family."
"Heirloom?"
"Yes. As early as a few generations ago, my family was also famous for being a wealthy family. However, we offended people we shouldn't have offended, and our family fortunes fell into decline."
Jiang Rou picked up a hairpin from the vendor and wanted to turn around and ask him if he looked good, but she found that he had been staring at her.
"Does it look good?" she asked.
"nice."
He looked tenderly at the silly woman smiling in front of him, and squeezed her soft little hand.
Seeing that she liked the hairpin very much, Chen Jue turned to the stall owner and asked, "How much does it cost to wrap this?"
When the vendor heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up when he looked at Chen Jue.
"Oh, young master, originally this ancestral hairpin was not for sale, but now I am short of money, so I have to sell it."
"Seeing that Madam also likes this hairpin, I have no choice but to give it up for a cheaper price. The price is five hundred cents."
Just five hundred coins for such an ordinary hairpin?
Chen Jue frowned, feeling it was a bit expensive, but thinking that a woman would like it, it should be more expensive!
He picked up the inconspicuous bell bracelet and said, "Wrap these together."
"This bracelet looks quite ordinary. Why did you buy it too?"
Jiang Rou shook a pair of bell bracelets on her hands, which made a crisp and sweet sound.
Chen Jue glanced at the bell bracelet on her hand and thought about a video he had seen before.
According to the words in the video, he replied: "I give you a bell, ring it with each step, and think with each step."
In the past, she had boldly shown her love for His Majesty, and she had never heard His Majesty say a word of love.
Facing His Majesty's sudden love words, Jiang Rou couldn't adapt for a while.
But her face was honestly blushing, or to be precise, she was blushing from embarrassment.
Jiang Rou raised her hand again and shook the bell bracelet on her hand, with an even bigger smile on her face.
The person following me looked away after paying the money.
But no matter how far the distance is, to Zhang Jiaer, who has martial arts skills, this distance is nothing.
What should be heard was heard.
I never expected that Your Majesty would say such love words to make a woman happy.
Looking at the backs of the two of them, Zhang Jiaer couldn't help but sigh in a low voice, "The young master and the young lady are quite a match."
Yes, it’s the little lady, not the madam.
Liu Zhong had previously asked Chen Jue how they should call Concubine Jiang among the people.
It's not appropriate to call her "Madam". After all, Concubine Jiang is not a wife, just a concubine.
But the concubine is also the master, and she is still the beloved concubine in the emperor's heart.
In the end, I had to add the word "小" in front of "Madam", little Madam.
Chen Jue didn't say anything about the title "Little Madam" and seemed to have acquiesced in the title.
The two were walking when a little boy holding a little girl suddenly blocked their way.
"Master, do you want to buy a slave?"
"???"
As soon as these words came out, Chen Jue was a little confused!
what's the situation? !
On the other hand, after seeing the clothes of the two people, Jiang Rou thought of what she had just said and quickly understood the meaning.
When Jiang Rou was a child, she lived with her mother when she had no money. Looking at the two ragged children, she couldn't help but think of herself as a child.
Especially when I see the little girl behind the little boy, I have mixed feelings.
This was the first time Chen Jue encountered such a thing, but he didn't care.
I just thought it was the same as in modern society, when flower sellers stop boys from buying flowers for their girlfriends.
Although this is not selling flowers, there should be no difference, not to mention he has no shortage of slaves.
He immediately shook his head and prepared to leave.
"Master!"
"Master, please buy us, we will definitely do our best to repay you!"
The little boy and Jiang Rou spoke at the same time to stop Chen Jue.
"Sir, they—"
Thinking that His Majesty had never lived among the people, Jiang Roufu went over and whispered in Chen Jue's ear to explain something.
Only then did he realize that the two children were here to sell themselves.
Chen Jue frowned. In his opinion, buying and selling children was illegal.
According to the laws of Chen State, once they are registered as slaves, the two children will be slaves for life.
Even if he is freed from slavery later, he will be ridiculed and looked down upon for the rest of his life.
It's okay for a man, he can rely on his fame to defeat those who look down on him, but what about a woman?
Which family would marry a slave woman to be their mistress?
Chen Jue didn't want to ruin the two children, shook his head, and then called Liu Zhong.
"Give them some money," he said.
Then he turned to the slightly older boy and said, "I don't want to buy you."
Hearing this, the little boy hung his head in disappointment.
"Being a slave is not the best choice after all. You can just take the money and do some business. You can also buy some books to open so that you can obtain fame in the future." He said.
"Young Master, you've got the money."
Liu Zhong took out the money and put it in the little boy's hand, then glanced at the little girl behind him.
Liu Zhong knew the pain of being a slave.
If ordinary people are not in a desperate situation, who would sell their sons and daughters and make their children slaves?
What's more, my young master is not an ordinary person. Once he becomes a slave with the young master, the boy will have to purify himself.
"My young master is right. Being a slave is not a good choice after all. You are still young. With this money, you can learn some skills and take care of your sister."
The little boy looked at the money in his hand and knew that the young man was a good man and that what he said was right.
But but...
Thinking of his aunt at home, the little boy looked back at his sister behind him and seemed to have made a decision.
"Sir, as long as you buy me, I will be at your disposal from now on. I will treat you sincerely. Even if you want to kill me, I will have no regrets!"
As he spoke, he knelt down.
"you!"
Chen Jue had never seen anyone insisting on being a slave. He was furious for a moment, but saw the little boy's determination and helplessness.
Seeing more and more people watching around him, Chen Jue didn't want to be pointed at by others on the street, so he had to go back with the two children first.
