Zhao Xuanyi chuckled. She leaned into Zi Yuan's ear and whispered a few words. After hearing this, Zi Yuan's cheeks turned red with embarrassment and she glared at Zhao Xuanyi with shy eyes, "I know these are not serious!"
Zhao Xuanyi laughed loudly and continued shopping with Zi Yuan. When he saw various snacks sold on the street, Zhao Xuanyi looked at Zi Yuan, "What do you like to eat?"
Zi Yuan looked at the stalls on the street and moved her mouth, "Let's go eat red bean paste!"
"Okay!" Zhao Xuanyi and Zi Yuan came to the stall. "Boss, give me two bowls of red bean paste!" Zhao Xuanyi shouted loudly.
"Okay, come right away!" An uncle in his forties came over with two bowls of red bean paste and placed them gently on the table!
Zhao Xuanyi lowered his head and saw that the red beans were cooked and then added with sugar. It was a very traditional snack. Pick it up and take a bite. It is soft, glutinous and sweet. It is no worse than modern technology and hard work. It is purely natural!
Zi Yuan seemed to like this delicacy very much. She picked it up and ate it in small bites. Zhao Xuanyi turned around and looked elsewhere. There were many people on the street, and everyone seemed to be very happy. They were talking and laughing in a very friendly manner!
At this moment, Zhao Xuanyi couldn't help but feel envious. Although people in ancient times did not have as much technology as modern ones, they lived a simple life and were happy every day. They could be happily greedy on the street and lived without too much pressure. Watching people coming and going What a world of difference between pedestrians and the wage earners in our own world who race against time!
After eating the red bean paste, Zi Yuan took out a handkerchief and wiped her mouth. Who knew that just as she finished wiping, a hand snatched it away. Zhao Xuanyi wiped his mouth casually twice and gave it back to Zi Yuan: "Boss, check out! "
Zi Yuan reluctantly put the handkerchief in her pocket. The boss came over and said, "Sir, four copper coins!"
Zhao Xuanyi reached out and took out a piece of silver from his purse and said, "Let's settle the bill!"
The boss took the money in his hand and looked at a loss. "Sir, I am running a small business, but I can't find such a big money!"
Zi Yuan rolled her eyes, took back the silver from the boss and put it in Zhao Xuanyi's hand, then took out four copper plates from her purse and put them on the table! The boss quickly thanked him and put away the coins!
"You are really used to it, young master. Your piece of silver is enough to earn this stall for several months. How can he find it?" Zi Yuan was really speechless for Zhao Xuanyi, who had lived a carefree life since childhood.
Zhao Xuanyi smiled awkwardly and gave the silver in his hand to Zi Yuan, "Then take this!"
Zi Yuan didn't dare to accept it, and gave Zhao Xuanyi "It's just a few copper coins, no need to be so polite, just treat me as if I'm treating my uncle to something to eat!"
Zhao Xuanyi felt very embarrassed. He didn't expect it to be so difficult to spend money? The two continued walking, and Zhao Xuanyi suddenly saw a shop selling jewelry. A light flashed in his eyes, "Let's go and have a look!" After Zhao Xuanyi said that, he walked directly to the shop!
Zi Yuan was very surprised behind her. Why did Zhao Xuanyi come here suddenly? Are you buying jewelry for the third lady? Impossible, the young lady has not liked these things since she was a child, and Zhao Xuanyi knows it too! With all the questions in mind, Zi Yuan followed Zhao Xuanyi into the store.
After Zhao Xuanyi came in, he saw that the shop was not very big. There were only two rows of display cabinets, with jade on the left and gold and silver jewelry on the right. When the boss saw the visitor, he looked like he was wearing something unusual, so he immediately came over with a smile.
"Hey, a distinguished guest is here! Master, do you like that one?" the boss asked enthusiastically.
Zhao Xuanyi looked at these jewelry, but he just looked at them. He didn't know much about them. He couldn't afford to play with these things at home. "Sister Ziyuan, come here!"
Zi Yuan came over and saw these jewelry, her eyes were full of questions, "Uncle!"
"Look at these jade bracelets, how do they compare with the one I got today?" Zhao Xuanyi asked with a smile.
Zi Yuan looked down at these jade bracelets, picked up one and looked at it, slowly put it down, picked up another one and looked at it carefully, looked at four or five in a row, and finally shook her head to Zhao Xuanyi, "These jade bracelets are either The color is not good, the transparency is not enough, the inside is turbid, or there are cracks, it’s just an ordinary product!”
Zhao Xuanyi nodded and turned to look at the boss, "Boss, do you have any good products here? These are so ordinary that even my maid can't stand them!"
The boss also noticed that these two people were not ordinary people. They did not dare to recite false sutras in front of the real Buddha. "Yes, please wait a moment! Waiter, go and bring the good things you got a few days ago to show to the guest!" "
"Yes!" A teenage boy immediately walked into the back hall and walked out not long after, holding three boxes in his hand. "The shopkeepers are all here!"
The boss took it and put it on the table and opened it one by one. "Sir, take a look. I went out to collect these a few days ago. Take your fancy!"
Zhao Xuanyi looked carefully and saw that the three boxes were not the same. The first box was a pair of jade bracelets, the second box was a hairpin, and the third box was a pair of earrings. Zhao Xuanyi instantly I am attracted to this pair of earrings!
This is a pair of emerald green jade earrings with a gold pendant on top. The shape of the earrings is two butterflies, about the size of fingernails, and the carvings are very delicate. Zhao Xuanyi picked up one and saw the little butterfly trembling slightly in the air. It seems to be flying, very agile!
"How much does this pair of earrings cost?" Zhao Xuanyi asked directly.
"Sir, you are really discerning, is this...?" The boss also wanted to praise him.
Zhao Xuanyi asked impatiently, "Just tell me the price!"
have to! You are the master, and you didn’t realize that you were so angry at such a young age. Naturally, the boss didn’t dare to offend “Fifteen Liang!”
When Zi Yuan heard this, he didn't say anything. Fifteen taels was a lot. You must know that the eldest and second young masters of the Li family only received twenty taels a year, while ordinary soldiers only received twenty taels a year. This amount It’s not enough to ask them not to eat or drink for seven years for the earrings!
Zhao Xuanyi threw the money bag directly on the table and said, "Take it yourself!"
"Okay!" The boss hurriedly took a small scale, took out the silver and weighed it. When he found that there was too much, he took out a pair of scissors and cut a large piece of silver into pieces, then put the rest into a bag and returned it to Zhao Xuanyi. "Thank you boss for your visit!"
Zhao Xuanyi put the earrings in the box and handed them to Zi Yuan to hold. "Boss, I want to ask you something!"
"You tell me!" the boss said with a smile.
"Where are the goods you usually buy?" Zhao Xuanyi asked with a smile.
When the boss heard this, he smiled slightly and said, "Young master, you also want to do this business?"
"No, no, no, I'm just curious, so I just asked!" Zhao Xuanyi said with a smile.
When the boss heard this, he didn't hide it. After all, this kind of thing is not a secret. "When we purchase goods, we usually go to the Jiangnan area. There are many items from there. Of course, if you want raw materials, you have to go farther, such as Xinjiang and Xinjiang." Ah, Tibet, Yunnan, etc.!”
"Oh, thank you boss, business is booming!" Zhao Xuanyi finished speaking and walked out!
"I'd like to lend you your kind words!" the boss said enthusiastically as he walked out the door.
Zi Yuan and Zhao Xuanyi continued walking on the street. Zi Yuan was very surprised, "Uncle, are you interested in this jade?"
Zhao Xuanyi shook his head, "No, just ask!" Zhao Xuanyi walked slowly.
not interested? Zhao Xuanyi is not a person who likes to do useless work. Zi Yuan is very surprised. By the way, Miss Sun Qian gave the young lady a pair of jade bracelets today. Could it be that Zhao Xuanyi is trying to attract others? Are you going to give the lady another pair of earrings?
The two were walking slowly when Zhao Xuanyi suddenly saw a very familiar figure in front of him. Taking a closer look, wasn't this Li Hanrui? "Second brother! Here, second brother!" Zhao Xuanyi shouted and waved.
When Li Hanrui saw Zhao Xuanyi and Zi Yuan, he was very strange for a moment and walked over quickly, "Brother-in-law, why are you out? Is something wrong?"
"No, isn't this a young lady named Sun Qian here? Han Yan was chatting with her. I was a little bored, so I went out for a walk. I didn't expect to meet you, the second brother. What are you...?" Zhao Xuanyi laughed. asked.
"Ah? Oh, I'm just going out to do something. I'll have something else to do later...?" Li Hanrui said, but his eyes couldn't help but look to the side!
Zhao Xuanyi was very surprised. Following Li Hanrui's eyes, he saw Li Hanrui looking at an alley in trance. He didn't know what he meant. "Second brother, what are you looking at? Is there anything on that road?"
Zi Yuan looked towards the alley, her face turned pale and her eyes were filled with anger.
"Ah, it's nothing, what? You can go home if you have nothing to do!" Li Hanrui said with some embarrassment.
Zi Yuan looked at Li Hanrui with a mocking look, "Second Young Master, are you going to Zuichun Tower?"
When Zhao Xuanyi heard this, he thought, brothel? Oh, let me go? Zhao Xuanyi looked at Li Hanrui with a smirk on his face, and Li Hanrui smiled with a smile that couldn't be wiped off his face. "Zi Yuan, don't talk nonsense when you go back to the house!" Seeing how embarrassed Li Hanrui looked, it must be true!
Zhao Xuanyi laughed and said, "Second brother, Sister Ziyuan won't talk nonsense about you going to a brothel, but my mouth is not easy to fool. If I say anything carelessly this time...?" Everyone can understand Zhao Xuanyi's threatening tone!
Li Hanrui looked at Zhao Xuanyi, "Are you still my brother-in-law? Are you trying to rip me off?"
Zhao Xuanyi chuckled, "Of course I don't dare, but if my second brother takes me in and sees the world, I promise I won't talk nonsense!"
"No!" Zi Yuan and Li Hanrui said in unison. They looked at each other and sighed!
"What for? As for such a big reaction?" Zhao Xuanyi asked in surprise.
"You just got married and you're going to a brothel? If your father or Han Yan knew about this, why wouldn't they break your legs?" Li Hanrui said with a serious face.
Zi Yuan also came over, "Uncle, I advise you to be more honest, otherwise you won't be able to bear the consequences!"
Zhao Xuanyi looked nonchalant, "I'm just going to have a look, drink some wine and listen to some music. I didn't say I'd spend the night, and you're with me, second brother. How dare I be so presumptuous? Second brother, I just want to see the world and listen to music." He said there are many literati and dignitaries here, should we also meet them?"
