Poisonous Peasant ‘Concubine’

Chapter 142 Buy a windmill, Baiyun Pavilion

After resting for a while in the restaurant, Ling Jingxuan carefully instructed a few bookboys to take care of the buns, and said hello to shopkeeper Wang. After asking about the direction of Baiyun Pavilion, he followed Yan Shengrui with Ling Jingpeng and Zhang Qingyu who wanted to go shopping in the county. Zhao Hanfufu, who was shopping, parted ways, "Brother, come and see, what is this, have fun."

Zhao Hanfufu walked through the crowd with a large group of children. Ling Wu, the little bun who had to stop and study everything, stopped in front of a stall selling windmills. The colorful windmills attracted all his attention. , Ling Wen, who had always followed him closely, also had a little desire in his eyes, but as long as he thought that it was bought with money, that little desire disappeared without a trace, and his small hand quietly pinched it on his waist. The money he brought out was to buy things for his grandparents.

"Does Xiao Wu like it? Brother Yan, can I buy it for you?"

Ling Wen was reluctant, but it didn't mean that Chu Yan was also reluctant. For him, nothing was more important than making his younger brothers happy.

"Huh?? No, Daddy will scold me."

Reluctantly, he glanced at the windmill for the last time. Ling Wu shook his head and took a decisive step forward. Those colorful things are indeed very good, but they are not practical. Although he is not as stingy as his brother, he is not the kind of smart guy. The master of spending money.

"Haha...Uncle Ling knows that you don't buy it before scolding people. Well, if you like it, buy it. One for each person. It's fine to play with it." He pulled him back with a smile. After Chu Yan finished speaking, he turned to the hawker: " how much is it?"

Seeing that he was not particularly wealthy at a young age, he was dressed in silk and satin that ordinary people could not afford, and the hawker hurriedly smiled enthusiastically: "A penny, how much does the young master want?"

"What? It's just a penny for this thing? Why don't you go grab someone!"

"Forehead"

When he heard the price, Ling Wen subconsciously shouted out, and then realized that they were on the street. His little face couldn't help but blushed instantly. The hawker's forehead went black. This is the first time he has encountered such a small guest.

"Cough, trouble six, one for each."

Qiáng held back his smile and coughed twice. Chu Yan took out six copper plates from his purse. He had heard of Xiaowen's stinginess before. Uncle, but I haven't really seen it. When I saw it today, it was really funny.

"Okay, nice, little boy wait a moment."

After returning to his senses, the hawker had borrowed money, and Ling Wen, who had just made a big mess, quietly pulled Chu Yan's shirt, and after he bent down, he blushed and whispered in his ear: "Brother Yan, you give Xiao Wu and the others just buy it, I don't need it."

A penny is too expensive, even if it hadn't been spent on him, he would be reluctant.

"Haha... It's okay, it's rare to come to the county town. In addition to teaching you to read, Brother Yan doesn't seem to have ever given you anything. It's just a gift from me. Don't Xiaowen want Brother Yan's gift?"

He squatted down and straightened his hair, Chu Yan said gently, he liked these two younger brothers the most. Compared with the brothers in the capital who could kill at every turn, they were undoubtedly closer than his own brothers. , he will definitely pack all the best things in the world and send them to them.

"OK then."

After hesitating for a while, Ling Wen finally nodded, Chu Yan fondly touched him, took his windmill from the vendor and handed it to him, his little face couldn't help but smile slowly: "Thank you, Brother Yan."

"Thank you, Brother Yan."

Lingwu Tiewazi, who also got the windmill, smiled happily at him, and the other three little bookboys also bowed respectfully: "Thank you, Master Chu."

"You're welcome, everyone is playing, and you should also pay attention to the road under your feet. Be careful not to fall."

Waving his hands, Chu Yan did not forget to warn them, and the little buns agreed in unison, gathered together and started to study their windmill, as if he didn't take his advice to heart, Chu Yan couldn't help laughing, no Follow them vigorously to avoid any accident.

"I'm sorry, Young Master Chu, I made you spend money."

Han Fei, who was a step behind the money, chased after them with embarrassment on his face. When he saw that the children wanted one, he was going to pay for one for them. Who knew the money was hidden so well, when he took it out At that time, Ren Chu Yan had already given the money.

"Uncle Han is very polite. They all call me brother. It's right to buy them a gadget."

Although Chu Yan was young, he knew that, except for the three brothers, Yan Sheng, Rui, Ling Jingxuan, and Zhang Yang, who often asked his father for advice, the others were polite and distant. Being too careful will give people a feeling of alienation, even though he has always followed the rules of etiquette from beginning to end, and has never acted like a superior.

In fact, what he didn't know was that it was because he abides by the etiquette that others did not dare to get too close. The etiquette is indispensable among the wealthy and nobles, and even a slight error will be spread very badly, but in the countryside , is undoubtedly a kind of restraint, after all, Chu Yan is still young, obviously did not see this clearly.

Zhao Dalong and Han Fei couldn't say anything else when they saw this. They both smiled and secretly reminded themselves that the children would buy other things later, but Chu Yan must not let Chu Yan pay, although he may It's nothing, the two adults are really embarrassed.

On the other side, according to the instructions of Xiao Er, Ling Jingxuan and others saw a large row of carriages parked on the side of the road at the corner. Baiyun Pavilion is located west of the county seat. If you walk for at least an hour, these carriages are for those who want to save money. time man

It was a bit similar to a modern public taxi or taxi, and even Ling Jingxuan couldn't help but sighed at the wisdom of the ancients.

There are five copper coins alone. Fortunately, they didn't bring the little buns with them, otherwise his little face would be stretched again.

The wealth and wealth are the beef. Xinyuan Restaurant and Baiyun Pavilion occupy the most prosperous and lively areas in the east and west of the city respectively. Compared with the luxurious and huge Xinyuan Restaurant, Baiyun Pavilion is not behind. The facade is luxurious and grand, with two floors up and down. , The door with carved red lacquer is very festive, entering the shop, all kinds of fabric embroidery, embroidery needles, embroidery screens, as large as embroidery screens, there are dazzling arrays, everything, it is dazzling.

"What do you want to choose?"

Seeing them coming in, the young man greeted them with a smile on his face. There were already many customers in the store, but most of them were women. Even if there were men, they would accompany the women. A few big men like them came together. It is estimated that the ten days and a half months will not be seen once.

"I want to talk to your shopkeeper about some business, I don't know if he is here?" Glancing at the empty counter, Ling Jingxuan was thinking about a few children, and he was too lazy to talk nonsense with him.

"The shopkeeper has something to do on the second floor, a few wait a moment."

The guy looked at them suspiciously, but didn't mean to look down on them. After speaking, he went to the second floor. Ling Jingxuan looked at the counters. In addition to embroidery, there were also gold and silver jewelry. I seem to have all the things I can use, even the golden crown hairpins used by men. The only thing I didn't see was the cloth clothes. I glanced thoughtfully at the direction of the stairs, it should be on it, right? A counter that sells clothing fabrics.

"Is there something wrong with the guest officer?" After a while, a plump white man who looked like Maitreya Buddha came down from the upstairs. Judging by his age, he was no more than forty at most.

"I have a few ingenious things here that I would like to show you. I wonder if the shopkeeper is interested?" Ling Jingxuan looked at him carefully, turned around and took the burden from Zhang Qing's hand, in front of the customers in the store. The face opened.

"Why is this purse so big?"

"What a skillful craftsmanship. The flowers on this don't look like they were embroidered or sewn. How did you get them?"

"It's really good, the style is novel and good-looking, but it's a little too big."

A few more courageous female guests gathered around the bags as soon as they saw them, picked them up and looked up and down. Before that, Ling Jingxuan and the others had already moved away from their bodies, and the women's comments were no exception. It was full of admiration. The shopkeeper on the opposite side was also a very personable person. When I saw this, I knew that those things could definitely be bought for a big price, and the interest in my eyes couldn’t help but become stronger.

"This eldest sister, you are wrong, it's better to be bigger. When you women go out, the makeup on your face will inevitably fall off. If you attend any party, wouldn't it be embarrassing? If you use this bag, no You can put rouge gouache in a bag and take it with you? Even if you encounter such an embarrassing situation, can't you remedy it right away? And you see, this bag is not a purse, but a handbag. It can also be called a satchel. It can be twisted in your hand or held on your hand like this, or you can put it on your shoulder. Not only will it not look ugly, but it will also add a bit of alternative beauty to you."
