Pei Yan's palm was very big, and it was easy to control her hand.
He lifted a corner of the quilt, sat up slowly, and stared at Tao Ti on the bed with his black eyes. She was still sleeping soundly, her face was like a lotus, her lips were bright red, her head of black hair was scattered like a cloud, and a few strands fell on her delicate cheeks, adding a bit of charm.
Perhaps feeling the restraint in her hands, she frowned in dissatisfaction, and seemed to be muttering something indistinctly.
What is this dream, so active at night
Could it be... the young lady from Drunken Immortal Residence
She has a good relationship with Xu Wenchan, has she been to that kind of place before, or does she want to go there very much
Pei Yan's gaze suddenly became a little colder, and his rough fingertips unhurriedly slid across her fair cheeks, bright red lips, and clean and small chin...and finally landed on her slender and fragile neck.
"You have to be obedient."
He warned in a hoarse voice, his black eyes were burning with a suppressed and dangerous look.
"Don't run around... Otherwise, Gu will find a cage and lock you up, huh?"
His fingertips were cold, but his heart was filled with intense heat one after another.
Tao Ti seemed to have a different dream, and her two little hands stopped moving.
Pei Yan sat quietly for a long time, finally suppressed that thought, pinched her soft cheek with clear eyes, "Sleep well, if you move around again, I won't spare you."
He lay down again, but unexpectedly, shortly after closing his eyes, that soft body wrapped around him again.
His body froze.
The sweet aroma of his daughter's home filled his nostrils again, Pei Yan thought impatiently, if she touches her again, he will simply follow the trend and no longer bear it.
He half-closed his eyes, and waited, but the little girl didn't touch him any more, just hugged his body, as if she had found some treasure, rubbed her small face against his arm, and seemed to have a little smile, tenderly Very naive.
Pei Yan lowered her eyes slightly, looking at the little head nestled in her arms, and then at the arm lying across her chest, for a moment she didn't know what to do.
In the end, he didn't push her away, but was hugged by her like this, and fell asleep together.
...
The next day, early morning.
When Tao Ti opened her eyes in a daze, she saw a handsome face that was close at hand. The clear and gentle light shone through the red curtains and shrouded the man's picturesque eyebrows.
He has a straight nose and slightly pursed thin lips, like a sleeping beauty carved from jade.
It should be a pleasant thing to see a beautiful man when you open your eyes, but—
Why is most of my body in his arms!
Could it be that last night... I was so beastly and ruined him
Tao Ti subconsciously held her breath, gently lifted a corner of the quilt, and moved her gaze down quietly.
Pei Yan was lying on her back, her pajamas were a little messy, her neckline was open, and she could see her pale skin and pectoral muscles.
Unexpectedly, he is a sick and weak person, but his figure is quite good. Although he only reveals such a little, but he has big pectoral muscles, so he should also have abdominal muscles, right
Ouch, that's not right, is it time to think about pectoral muscles
Tao Ti hurriedly withdrew her messy thoughts, looked down at herself, fortunately, she was still wearing her pajamas.
She secretly breathed a sigh of relief, seeing that Pei Yan was still fast asleep, she quickly moved her body inwards, and distanced herself from him.
Fortunately, I woke up first, otherwise, if Pei Yan woke up first, it would be so embarrassing to see this scene.
Fortunately, she didn't notice that the eyelashes of the man beside her moved slightly.
Tao Ti couldn't sleep right now either. When she thought of sleeping with a man in her arms for the night, she felt ashamed and embarrassed. She just wanted to get out of this small bed curtain, go out to get some air, and calm down.
Thinking of this, she tiptoed off the quilt and slowly crawled outside.
In order not to disturb Pei Yan who was sleeping on the outside, she carefully propped up with both hands, one hand was first supported, and then one leg was extended to half of her body.
Just when she was about to cross the other leg, the man who had just fallen asleep suddenly raised his hand and turned over. His hand just caught her slender waist and brought her back to the bed at once.
This unexpected action startled Tao Ti so much that she almost didn't cry out.
The man's arms were slender and powerful, and they hung heavily on her waist. His figure was already tall, and this ambiguous posture seemed to enclose her in his arms.
Her face was very close to his chest, and the tip of her small nose barely missed his warm skin.
The nostrils are full of a man's strong breath, in addition to the clear cedar aroma, there is also a strong masculine breath, which makes people's face warm and heartbeat inexplicably.
The surroundings were very quiet, but her beating heart was pounding on her eardrums, making a lot of noise.
Is he awake
Tao Ti was thinking anxiously, feeling the heat from his palm on her waist, swallowed a little, and whispered, "Your Highness?"
no respond.
It was probably still asleep and just rolled over by chance.
She breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately she fell asleep.
Tao Ti twisted her waist slightly, trying to get away from his embrace.
She was cautious, but she didn't know that the man was opening a pair of deep black eyes, calmly looking at her shy and careful look, and his thin lips evoked a pleasant smile.
Pei Yan didn't make it too difficult for her, after all, if she goes too far, it's easy to reveal her secrets.
He pretended to be still asleep, cooperated with her movements, and let her get out of bed.
Hearing the little girl's breath of relief after getting out of bed, and the sound of brisk leaving footsteps, Pei Yan on the bed slowly opened his eyes and sat up.
His eyes fell on his hands, and he thought of the soft touch of her waist, the plumpness on his waist...
In fact, for a moment just now, he really wanted to tear off the disguise, firmly imprison her under him, hold her waist and take possession of her fiercely, and let her cry tenderly under him.
But he has always been a very patient hunter.
He can wait slowly, waiting for the innocent and well-behaved little prey to throw himself into his arms.
...
Tao Ti wandered around the courtyard and practiced a section of Baduanjin to make sure her heart was peaceful and free from desires before returning to the house.
Pei Yan had finished grooming, probably for going out of the palace. He was wearing an ordinary silver-gray brocade robe, with a jade belt around his waist, and his black hair was tied up with a white jade crown. Unique, unique in the world. [1]
Tao Ti could see that he wanted to dress in a low-key manner, but with such a handsome face, even if he wore a sack, he would definitely turn heads.
Seeing her coming in, Pei Yan's eyes burst into a gentle smile, "You woke up early today."
As soon as Tao Ti saw him, her brain unconsciously thought of what happened between the curtains of the bed.
The little face flushed suddenly, avoiding his gaze a little uncomfortably, and said in a low voice, "It's probably because I'm so happy that I can't sleep at the thought of being able to leave the palace today."
Pei Yan saw a faint blush on her snow-white cheeks, and said softly, "Then you should dress up first, and we'll set off after breakfast."
Tao Ti hummed, and Pei Yan left the dormitory, waiting for her in the hall.
After about half a stick of incense, she finished dressing and walked slowly to Pei Yan.
She is also dressed very low-key today. She wears a pear-blossom white double-breasted dark flower gauze dress, and a lotus-blue swirl-shaped water-woven gold and smoke brocade skirt. The chrysanthemum hairpin, wearing a pair of green jade earrings, made her skin more fair and lustrous.
Pei Yan sized her up and said softly, "It's beautiful."
"That's not as good-looking as you." Tao Ti teased lightly, and then said, "Go and eat, I'm a little hungry."
The two walked out together, and the palace people on both sides looked at their figures and thought in unison: The prince and the princess are really a pair of people, they are perfectly matched.
The breakfast is mainly prepared by the imperial dining room, including crepe wontons, fried steamed buns, jujube cakes, honey cake rolls, sweetheart cakes and crisp sugar sesame cakes, various pickles, bad fish, sea salt snake bream, fried three-color fresh, plus two bowls Rock sugar bird's nest soup, a pile of food is placed on the table, but fortunately, the portion of each item is not too much, and it is more delicate and rich.
As soon as Tao Ti was seated, she ate the wontons first.
She instructed Mr. Sun to make this crepe wonton. After all, it was the imperial chef, and it was placed there horizontally. She only briefly described a few sentences, and Mr. Sun understood what she meant.
I saw small and tender wontons packed in a large celadon bowl. The soup was clear. The surface of the wontons was extremely thin and wrinkled, tightly wrapping the reddish filling inside. The soup was clear and thick, floating A little egg flower, a layer of green onion for decoration, and a spoonful of rice vinegar and light soy sauce, steaming hot and full of fragrance.
A wonton is sandwiched, the entrance is tender and smooth, the wonton skin is as thin as gauze, without the slightest powdery feeling, it is so slippery that you can't wait to swallow it in one bite. The three fresh fillings are juicy and juicy, and the meat is delicate. Eat a wonton and drink a mouthful of soup, the happy and comfortable satisfaction is really known to those who eat it.
After a while, Tao Ti ate up a bowl of wontons, and when she looked up, Pei Yan's bowl was similarly eaten.
She bent her eyes and smiled, and she knew that he would like to eat the light and delicious crepe ravioli.
As soon as Pei Yan raised his head, he saw the little girl resting her chin on one hand and looking at him with a gentle smile. His eyes moved slightly, and he said softly, "Why are you looking at Gu like this, but what's wrong with Gu?"
"No, it's nothing." Tao Ti shook her head. She couldn't say, seeing him eating so happily, she felt a sense of accomplishment feeding the small animals, right
The carriage had already been waiting outside the Yaoguang Hall, and the two of them set off together after having a short rest after breakfast.
Now it is almost the end of March, the weather is getting warmer, the grass is growing and the warblers are flying, the willows are pink and the willows are green, and it is a beautiful scene of spring.
The carriage rattled towards the outside of the palace, and when it exited the majestic and tall palace gate, the surroundings gradually became lively from quiet.
Pei Yanduan sat down and asked her softly, "East Market and West Market, which one do you want to visit first?"
Tao Ti raised a corner of the curtain and looked out. They are now on Zhuque Street, and the east and west squares are on her left and right.
Yesterday, Xu Wenchan told her a lot about the excitement outside, and the Marquis of Zhenbei never held her back, so even though she had only been in Chang'an for two years, she knew more about the situation in each city than a native Chang'an like the original owner. .
East Market and West Market are undoubtedly the most lively and prosperous places in Chang'an City, equivalent to Wangfujing in modern Beijing, People's Square in Shanghai, and Beijing Road in Guangzhou.
The commerce here is developed, and all walks of life are thriving. There are jewelry pavilions, rouge shops, silk and satin houses, mules and horse shops, studies, teahouses, and restaurants. There are also many vegetable sellers, performers, and small stalls on the roadside, and the excitement is not inferior to the modern commercial district.
Although the East and the West both contain everything, there are also differences. Most of the goods sold in the East Market are local goods, while the goods sold in the West Market are more exotic goods, such as spices, herbs, glass, pearls, agate, crystal, leather and fur. Wait.
After thinking for a while, Tao Ti said, "Let's go to West Market first?"
Hearing this, Pei Yan raised her eyebrows and looked at her. He wanted to ask why he wanted to go to West Market first, but before he could ask, the little girl said expectantly, "A Chan said that the orchids in West Market dance very beautifully!"
Pei Yan, "..."
Well, there are no orchids dancing during the day, and they dance at Pingkangfang at night.
The carriage turned around and headed for the West Market, after passing through three square markets, we arrived.
The West Market is very lively, besides Chang'an's elegant dialect, there are dialects from all over the world, and Mandarin with a heavy accent.
Tao Ti put on the veiled hat in the carriage, bent down and got out of the carriage. Pei Yan was already standing beside the carriage, reaching out to her very naturally.
Just as Tao Ti was about to reach out her hand, she suddenly remembered that he had put her arms around her waist this morning... It seemed to be this hand
Pei Yan saw that her slender hand was half-stretched, but she seemed to be retracting it, and could not help but narrow her black eyes, with a slight chill in her eyes, but her tone was extremely gentle, "What's the matter? "
Tao Ti was startled, and suddenly came back to her senses, "No, it's nothing, I..."
Before she could say "I can come down by myself", Pei Yanhu took a step forward, stretched out his long arms, put his arms around her waist, and carried her down easily.
Tao Ti, "!!!"
When her feet touched the ground, she was still in a daze, her mind was full of who I was, where I was, and what happened just now.
Pei Yan lowered his head, fixedly looking at her shocked appearance, slightly raised the corners of his lips, and gave a reasonable explanation in a flat tone, "The carriage can't stop on Fangshi Street."
Tao Ti raised her head in a daze, her Shui Lingling eyes blinked, her voice was somewhat confused and soft, "Is this so?"
Pei Yan looked affirmative, "Yes."
Tao Ti felt vaguely wrong at first, but seeing Pei Yan's righteous and calm appearance, she also believed his words. I was even thinking in my heart, I didn't expect that the traffic rules in Dayuan Dynasty are pretty good.
Seeing that she was silent, Pei Yanchang's eyelashes moved slightly, and he said apologetically, "I just saw that you were absent-minded just now, so I hugged you on my own initiative, how abrupt..."
"Ah, it's all right." Tao Ti quickly waved her hand, "It's not right for the carriage to stop for too long... On the contrary, I am quite heavy, so it takes a lot of effort for you to hold me. Next time you tell me directly, I will jump off by myself That's right."
"You are not heavy." Pei Yanfeng smiled lightly, "Although Gu's body is not good, he still has the strength to hug you."
I don't know if it was Tao Ti's illusion, but when he said the word "hug", the smile in his tone became heavier.
Counting just now, this is the second time he hugged her today.
Tao Ti avoided his gentle eyes and said dryly, "Well, let's go shopping, we finally came out, we have to take a good stroll..."
Pei Yan hummed and stood shoulder to shoulder with her, "Let's go."
Most of the west market is full of Hu merchants, the gates are wide open, and all kinds of goods are displayed outside, making people dazzled and overwhelmed.
Although both Pei Yan and Tao Ti dressed in a low-key manner, just as Tao Ti had thought before, with such a good appearance, he was the prettiest boy wherever he went. What's more, his innate noble temperament, anyone with a little discernment can see that he is either rich or noble.
So as soon as the two entered the store, the clerk immediately leaned forward with his back bent, his enthusiastic smile like a morning glory blooming in spring.
Tao Ti always thought that women would be more impulsive when it comes to shopping, but after shopping with Pei Yan for a long time, the style of painting between them seems to be somewhat different, for example—
spice shop.
The waiter said, "Hello, two guests, this is a high-grade agarwood that just came from Funan Kingdom. It took almost a year to get such a high-grade agarwood. Look at the texture, smell the smell. …”
Tao Ti glanced curiously.
Pei Yan asked, "What do you think?"
Tao Ti replied casually, "Well, it's pretty good."
Pei Yan, "Okay." Turning to look at the buddy, "Wrap it up, I want it."
Tao Ti, "...?!"
The man laughed so hard that he couldn't see his teeth, "Oh, my lady, your husband treats you really well, you are so lucky!"
Jewelry Court.
The proprietress said, "Hey, madam, you have really good eyesight. This string of pearl chains is a new product from our store. Look at the luster, and then look at the roundness and size. It is a palace necklace. The ones worn by the empress do not necessarily have such quality. As the old saying goes, east beads are not as good as west beads, and west beads are not as good as south beads. Madam, you are as beautiful as a flower. If this string of south beads is hung around your neck, it will definitely complement you. Your skin will become brighter and clearer."
Pei Yan asked, "What do you think?"
Tao Ti, who had the experience of the previous family, hesitated for a moment, "... just, okay?"
Pei Yan, "Okay." Turning to look at the proprietress, "Wrap it up, I want it."
Tao Ti, "...?!"
The proprietress laughed and trembled, "Ma'am, your husband treats you very considerately. I wish you all a happy life together, with many children and grandchildren!"
Husband...
The first time he heard this address, Pei Yan's eyes moved slightly, and he subconsciously glanced at the woman beside him.
I saw her hanging her small head, and her fair ears were obviously covered with a layer of crimson.
Just a husband, are you so shy
But for some reason, his heart was inexplicably itchy, and he really wanted to hear her call him her husband softly and sweetly with her delicate voice.
Tao Ti felt embarrassed, even though she and Pei Yan were indeed husband and wife in name, but being blessed like this, she couldn't help but feel her ears burn.
She bit her lower lip lightly, and didn't dare to look at Pei Yan's expression, she just hoped that he didn't notice such a small address.
But the next moment, I heard Pei Yan say to the proprietress with a smile, "I would like to borrow your good words."
Borrow, borrow auspicious words? Tao Ti was taken aback, and suddenly realized that they were living together, with children and grandchildren, and her head was buzzing.
Is he talking politely? Yes, yes!
Before she could figure it out, Pei Yan took her to the shop next door and continued shopping.
About an hour later, Tao Ti looked at the overcrowded carriage, and finally understood why she had to take three carriages with her when she went out today...
Brother, you are too exaggerated!
Is this the rhythm of contracting the entire West Market!
Seeing the shopkeepers of other shops staring at them with bright eyes, as if they were staring at two pieces of oily and fat pork belly, Tao Ti shivered.
She quickly stood in front of Pei Yan, grabbed his sleeve, and said softly, "Your Highness, I'm a little hungry... A Chan said that there is a Chunfeng Restaurant in Dongshi, which is the best restaurant in Chang'an City. Let's go there for dinner." ?”
Pei Yan was slightly stunned, and looked down at the little girl who was pulling the sleeve of her robe. She tilted her head up, and her clear eyes flickered at him, like a spring breeze blowing through snow, pure and heart-melting.
He thought she might be tired from shopping, and nodded gently, "Okay, let's go eat."
This time he helped her into the carriage, and she extended her hand, very cooperative.
The carriage left the West Market smoothly...
During the lunch break, the merchants in the West Market sat at the door and basked in the sun, chatting casually.
"Lao Ma, let me tell you, my shop has a big customer today!!"
"Oh, what a coincidence, my family is too!"
"That customer not only spends a lot of money and spends a lot of money, but also looks extremely handsome! When he and his wife came into my shop at first, I was still thinking, my God, the gods have descended."
"The customer who came to my house is also very handsome! Tsk tsk, his demeanor is unusual at first glance, and I don't know which mansion he is from, at least he is also a son of the Hou family?"
"Listen to you, do you think we are the same? Is the gentleman wearing a silver-gray robe, and the lady next to him is wearing a pear-blossom white dress?"
"exactly!"
For a while, the guys from several other shops also agreed, and after communicating with each other, they were all dumbfounded when they learned that the gentleman had spent so much money this morning:
"Be obedient, Long Didong, this gentleman treats his wife much better!!"
"Who says it's not? You bought the valuable Chen Shuixiang without blinking an eye! Such a large string of pearls, and without asking a question, the lady said it was okay, so he just bought it!"
"Speaking of which, has any of you seen the appearance of that little lady?"
"Hey, little lady is wearing a veiled hat, and the white gauze covers her face tightly. At most, she can only see a vague outline, but she can't see her full face."
"That's right, how can such a wife of a noble family let outsiders look at her casually? But to make such a handsome man love and cherish so much, she must be a peerless beauty, right?"
At this moment, the "extremely gorgeous" Tao Ti is sitting in a box facing the street in Chunfeng Building, talking seriously to her handsome husband about the importance of reasonable consumption.
Pei Yan listened quietly, with a gentle smile on her lips all the time, seeing that she was thirsty, he also thoughtfully poured her a glass of water.
Tao Ti, "..."
Pei Yan, "Drink some water before we talk."
Tao Ti picked up the teacup and took a sip, her delicate red lips immediately became plump and gorgeous like flowers that had absorbed the rain and dew.
"Then do you know what I said? Although your family really has a mine, you can't squander it like this..."
Pei Yan's eyes fell on her small cherry mouth, which opened and closed, as if thinking of something, his eyes darkened a little.
Tao Ti finished drinking the water, pursed her lips, and said with a serious expression on her brows, "By the way, most of the things on the carriage belong to me... I will ask Linglong to count the total price when I go back, and then return the money." Give you… "
The carriage was not cheap, but Tao Ti reckoned that her dowry was quite a lot, so she should be able to pay it back.
Hearing her words, Pei Yan frowned unrecognizably, and said in a deep voice, "No need to pay back."
Tao Ti shook her head, "No, I have to pay it back. My brothers and sisters know how to settle accounts, let alone..."
Their current relationship is not husband and wife, not relatives, they can barely be regarded as friends... Even if they are friends, she can't accept such a heavy thing with peace of mind.
Pei Yan said, "These are all sent to you alone."
Tao Ti's attitude was also very firm, and she said softly, "You don't get rewarded for nothing, you suddenly gave me so many valuable things, I deserve it..."
Her pupils were bright and firm, Pei Yan could understand her thoughts at a glance, and the smile on her lips froze slightly.
It stands to reason that he should be happy that she can be so transparent and sensible.
It can be seen that she and him are clearly and distinctly separated, and he feels a sense of unreasonable turmoil in his heart.
Fortunately, at this moment, the waiter from the restaurant came in to deliver the food, interrupting the topic for the time being.
"One piece of white kidney in wine and vinegar, one piece of stir-fried quail with three fresh bamboo shoots, one piece of roasted dove, one piece of fried frog with batter paste, one piece of spicy soup with green shrimp, one piece of stewed golden hook fin, one piece of first-class tofu, two pieces of cold-washed locust leaves, lychee A pot of ointment and water."
A dish is placed on the table, exuding a tempting aroma.
"The dishes for the two noblemen have been served, please take your time." Xiaoer bowed respectfully and then stepped back.
Tao Ti was already hungry, but when she saw the dishes on this table, her attention was suddenly attracted by the food, "These look very good."
Seeing that she was talking to him seriously about paying back the money one second, and staring at the food the next second, Pei Yan couldn't laugh or cry.
"Didn't you say you were hungry at first, let's eat first."
"it is good!"
Tao Ti was also polite, picked up the chopsticks, and tasted the dishes of this ancient restaurant one by one.
It's a pity that she doesn't have a mobile phone, otherwise she will open a food broadcast at this time, which will definitely attract a lot of viewers to watch.
"Well, this is delicious... Mmm! This one is also good... This spicy green shrimp soup is also good... It's full of flavor..."
While she was eating, her little head was shaking slightly, she was almost humming a little song in happiness.
After tasting the dishes, she set her sights on the bright green locust leaves that look like emeralds.
This locust leaf Lengtao is a famous cold food in ancient China. She had heard Uncle Thirteen mention it.
Uncle Thirteen said that on a rainy summer day, he once met a poor official in a small restaurant in the Tang Dynasty. Seeing that the official was hungry and pale and thin, Uncle Thirteen invited him to eat a bowl of Lengtao locust leaves, and the official was very grateful.
Many years later, Thirteenth Uncle found out that the down-and-out official was actually the famous poet Du Fu.
Du Fu also wrote a poem "Lengtao of Sophora japonica leaves", the first sentence is: Qingqing Gaohuai leaves, picked and paid to the Chinese cook.
When he read this poem later, Uncle Thirteen proudly showed off to her, "Maybe he wrote this poem to commemorate me, a kind person who has been kind to him."
In response, Tao Ti shrugged and spread her hands, "All right, as long as you're happy."
Uncle Thirteen has never been serious, and nine out of ten sentences in his mouth are false. Although he has indeed lived for almost 1,500 years, who knows if he made up the story with Du Fu
"What are you thinking?" Pei Yan's voice suddenly rang in his ears.
Tao Ti suddenly woke up from the memories, smiled at him, and said softly, "No, it's nothing, I just suddenly remembered an elder at home..."
After a pause, she asked curiously, "Isn't this Lengtao locust tree leaf only available in summer? Why do you eat it in spring?"
Pei Yanwen said, "It will be the Cold Food Festival soon, so every store has prepared some."
Cold Food Festival? Tao Ti nodded and murmured, "No wonder..."
The so-called locust leaf Lengtao is equivalent to modern cold noodles, but the flour is mixed with locust leaf juice, so it is green in color. It looks refreshing in summer and has a faint scent of locust leaf.
The locust leaf Lengtao in front of Tao Ti is a topping made of shrimp. The shrimp is fragrant and reddish. She uses chopsticks to fully mix the attractive topping with the noodles to ensure that each noodle is covered with sauce before picking up a piece of it. Put the chopsticks into your mouth.
The entrance is refreshing and not greasy, the noodles are soft and smooth, and because they are hand-pulled, they are also very tenacious. The shrimp meat is very plump, tender and elastic, and the taste is very good.
Tao Ti quickly finished off a whole bowl of locust locust leaf Lengtao, touched her stomach contentedly, and sighed secretly, it really deserves to be a delicacy that ancient literati wrote poems to praise!
Pei Yan also ate the same food. He slowly picked up the handkerchief and wiped the corner of his mouth, and said immediately, "Gu has something to do nearby. Are you waiting for Gu to come back here, or are you wandering in Dongshi by yourself?"
Tao Ti paused for a moment, then said softly, "Go and do some work, I'll go shopping by myself."
Pei Yan nodded and said, "Alright, let Linglong, Fu Xirui, and Zhanping accompany you, and the guards will also secretly protect you... At most half an hour, Gu will be back."
"OK."
Tao Ti smiled at him obediently, and thought, finally, I can go shopping by myself!
Going shopping with Pei Yan, a walking ATM machine, she didn't dare to look at the goods more, for fear that he would just pay the bill after one glance, just... the pressure is quite high!
As soon as they came out of Chunfeng Building, Pei Yan explained a few words, and the two separated.
Compared with the exotic style of the West Market, the East Market has more local characteristics. Along the way, people performing acrobatics, playing the piano and singing, and fortune-telling and divination are noisy and lively.
Tao Ti looked around and bought a lot of exquisite or interesting gadgets.
Strolling to a silk and satin shop unknowingly, I saw a lot of fragrant cars and BMWs parked in the huge gate, and there was a gilt plaque hanging on the luxurious gate, with the words "Tianyi Pavilion" written in three flamboyant characters.
"Hey, what a style!"
"Madam, this Tianyi Pavilion is a well-known silk and satin shop in the city. If you are interested, why don't you go in and take a stroll?" Fu Xirui suggested from the side.
"also."
Tao Ti walked in, and the decoration inside the store was also very magnificent, all kinds of silks and satins were arranged neatly, there were already many ladies and girls in the store choosing, and seven or eight shop assistants were too busy.
Perhaps it was Tao Ti who was dressed soberly, the clerk only said to her, "Madam, you can take a look at yourself", and then turned around to entertain the group of gorgeously dressed guests who entered the door.
Linglong was still a little annoyed by this, and snorted, "Bah, dogs look down on people."
Tao Ti, on the other hand, was very happy and comforted, "It's okay, let's go shopping by ourselves."
On the first floor are ready-made clothes and silks and satins of average quality, while the best silks and satins are placed on the second floor.
Tao Ti went up to the second floor, and saw some pretty good colors and patterns, especially the tea-white brocade with cloud and crane dark patterns on the highest one—
Pei Yan must look good in this color.
He went shopping with her all morning, but he didn't buy anything himself. Why don't you buy this satin and give it to him as a gift
The more Tao Ti thought about it, the more she felt that it was good, so she hurriedly called a buddy and asked him to take down the tea brocade with white cloud and crane pattern.
Seeing that she was interested in this horse, the man was surprised and didn't go to pick it up right away. He just looked her up and down and said, "Ma'am, this is sky cloud satin. It's not cheap. Such a horse costs a hundred dollars." Jin, are you... sure you want this?"
Tao Ti responded lightly, "Well, that's it."
The man frowned, and wanted to say something, Fu Xirui took out a stack of bank notes from his pocket, and said bluntly, "Give it to our wife soon!"
As soon as he saw the banknote, the clerk's eyes straightened, and then he realized that he had almost offended a big customer, and hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, I'll go get it now, madam, please wait a moment."
This time, the soles of his feet seemed to be oiled, fast and steady, carefully holding the piece of sky cloud satin, bending over with a flattering smile on his face, his service attitude was a 180-degree turn.
"Madam, is there anything else you like? Bring the smaller ones together and wrap them up for Madam."
"no need."
"A batch of new products has recently arrived in the store, Madam can..."
"I said no more."
The tone of this sentence is light, but it carries a bit of undeniable momentum.
The man was startled, and quietly raised his eyes to look at the lady in front of him. She was always wearing a veiled hat, and she couldn't see clearly, but the momentum of her words just now really made people's hearts tremble.
Now the clerk didn't dare to say any more, and hurriedly led Tao Ti to the counter to check out.
I didn't expect that just as I went downstairs and before I reached the counter, I heard a crisp female voice, "Hey, the one over there, yes, yes, it's you, show me the piece of satin in your hand."
The man was taken aback, and Tao Ti frowned slightly.
"I said you are deaf? What are you doing in a daze, take it here quickly!" the female voice said angrily.
"This, this... I'm sorry, this lady, this sky cloud satin has been chosen by this lady..." The man bent over and explained.
"I chose and didn't pay, even if I paid, as long as this girl wants it, I can still get it!"
This is really crazy.
Tao Ti turned her head involuntarily and looked towards the front right.
I saw the woman combing her boudoir daughter's hair in a bun, wearing gold and silver, and a pink cotton skirt embroidered with gold and gold. She was tall and tall with an oval face. Insolent, unexpectedly lowered her appearance a bit.
Seeing this woman for the first time, Tao Ti subconsciously thought of Pei Lingbi.
The arrogance and arrogance of this woman in front of her is simply Pei Lingbi version 2.0.
"Cuixi, go, bring me that satin—"
"Yes." The maid named Cuixi stepped forward aggressively, and was about to take the sky cloud satin from the guy's hand.
But before she reached out, Linglong squeezed her wrist expressionlessly, "This belongs to our wife."
Cuixi was furious, "You!!!"
Linglong threw her away fiercely, and with the other hand, she grabbed the piece of sky cloud satin like flowing water, and silently retreated behind Tao Ti.
Tao Ti, "...!"
Linglong is so powerful, the series of actions just now are so handsome!
Tao Ti applauded Linglong, but the girl in the peach red dress was upset. She strode forward, her brows were furrowed, she stared at Tao Ti and said, "Do you know who I am? How dare you let your The lowly servant girl hurt my man?!"
In fact, Tao Ti has never liked to talk to such crazy people, because dealing with such people is unreasonable, tiring and meaningless.
Just being unreasonable doesn't mean she can tolerate people who point at her nose and scold her!
Tao Ti walked slowly in front of the woman in the peach red dress, and said calmly, "Who is the lowly maidservant scolding?"
The woman in the peach red dress said, "You bitch scold..." Halfway through the speech, she suddenly realized something was wrong, her pink face flushed immediately, and she glared angrily, "You, you bitch, how dare you tease me ?! Do you know who I am?"
Tao Ti snapped back coldly, "You are electricity, you are light, you are the only myth, okay? This is really funny, there are thousands of people in Da Yuan Dynasty, who has the time to remember who you are?"
The woman in the peach red dress was obviously very angry, and one finger was shaking and shaking.
At this time, Cuixi who was thrown away by Linglong stepped forward and said loudly, "Our girl is the sixth girl of Zuoxiangfu!"
The sixth daughter of Xiangfu
Tao Ti pursed her lips, trying to recall this character.
It was Fu Xirui who leaned forward and whispered, "Madam, the prime minister on the left is the empress's elder brother, this should be the empress's own niece, Sixth Miss Zhou Muyan."
ha? Tao Ti was really surprised now—
No wonder she said that when she first saw this guy, she seemed to see another Pei Lingbi, so they were cousins.
It's true, it's not that a family doesn't enter a house.
But what about Queen Zhou's niece? She is a crown princess, even Pei Lingbi can't please her, let alone Zhou Muyan.
"Oh, so it's the daughter of Prime Minister Zuo, the empress's own niece." Tao Ti smiled slightly.
"Hmph." Zhou Muyan saw that her tone became softer, and she thought that the other party was afraid, so she couldn't help raising her chin, and snorted, "If you obediently give me this piece of satin, I won't be as fussy as you are."
"Oh, Miss Saturday is really... shameless."
"Hmm...??" Zhou Muyan was stunned, and looked at the woman in front of her in disbelief, "What, what did you say? Say it again if you have the ability!"
"One time is not enough, shameless, shameless, shameless, three times for you."
"..."
Zhou Muyan's angry cheeks turned red and white.
The shop assistants and customers all gasped: Oh my god, this lady wearing a veiled hat is so bold that she even provokes the queen's own niece
Even the little guy who took the sky cloud satin sweated for Tao Ti, and carefully approached to persuade, "This lady, just a piece of satin, you can give it to her. With her status, she can easily There is no excuse."
Tao Ti didn't comment, and only calmly said to Zhou Muyan, "Hasn't the left minister ever taught you the principle of first come first, first come first? Or do you think you can do whatever you want at the feet of the emperor by relying on the power of the prime minister and the empress?"
These words fell into Zhou Muyan's ears, and she just felt that the cunning woman in front of her was setting a verbal trap for her again, cursing her for being uneducated.
Seeing more and more people watching, they all pointed and pointed, as if they were criticizing her. Zhou Muyan felt increasingly irritable and angry. She had never been wronged and humiliated like this since she was a child!
If she doesn't teach this ignorant woman a lesson today, what face will she have in the future
Thinking of this, Zhou Muyan's eyes turned cold, she took a big step forward, and raised her hand to hit Tao Ti.
