Chapter Eighty-Seven: Love and Business

But there are some things that are more uncomfortable to see clearly than when you can't. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

He looked forward to the eldest princess waking up, but in the bottom of his heart, he was even more afraid that the eldest princess would never wake up from now on.

If the eldest princess can't wake up again, no one in this world will love him anymore.

Mama Hu hurts him again, and the little fan Kong Xiang is trustworthy, he can't say it, but the feeling is different.

There are a lot of things I want to say in my heart, but I can't say it, my mother is sick and tired, and he can't express his troubles, and my mother likes my father so much...... Besides, he didn't know what to say.

In the end, it only turned into this low sentence.

"Mother...... Immortality is uncomfortable. ”

The winter afternoon sun shines through the window lattice and sprinkles on the brocade quilt of the big red flowers, and the silk reflects a pale golden luster.

The eldest princess lay quietly on the bed, her eyebrows calm and beautiful.

Mu Qing sat on the brocade stool at the head of the bed, the hand of the eldest princess was already skinny, he held it gently, looking at the withered face of the eldest princess, all the words in the chest could not be spoken, in the light and dark sunlight, the beautiful face looked at her mother motionless like a jade carving, and the expression on her face was like a lost and confused little beast.

After a long time, there was a knock on the door from the maid outside, and he was stunned, gathered his emotions and walked out.

The little fan was under the porch, and when he saw him, he came out and shouted "Master" to him.

The little fan's expression was a little strange.

He stepped down, and the little fan leaned over and whispered, "Young Master, Miss Shen is looking for you." ”

Mu Qing looked at the little fan with a shocked expression, the little fan nodded hurriedly, and made a mouth shape: "Outside the house-"

Mama Hu also walked out when she heard the sound, and when she saw this, she pushed him out: "If you have something, go out, you have been with you for most of the day, go out for a walk." ”

Following the little fan towards the outside of the house, he felt a little strange in his heart.

Shen Nishang looking for him?

What did she ask him for?

Didn't she ignore him?

She would come to the house to find him!

His heart was up and down, and his mind was also messy, during this period of time, Mu Dongheng was stationed in the military camp, and he didn't have much estimates, and he walked out of the mansion in stride, thinking about why Shen Nishang was here and how he should speak......

Until he reached the door, Mu Qing was stunned for a moment - he turned his head and glared at the little fan!

Didn't you say it was Miss Shen?

The little fan blinked, glanced at Yuchun, and replied with a very innocent look: It was Miss Shen who asked Yuchun to come to the young master!

Yuchun didn't pay attention to the eyes of the master and servant at all, she looked left and right, stepped forward and lowered her voice: "Young Master Mu, take a step to speak." ”

Shen Nishang confessed to her, trying not to let people see it.

Mu Qing walked to a corner with her: "It's Ni...... Your lady asked you to come?"

Yuchun nodded, and whispered to a long story short: "Miss wants to buy that female hipper, but she needs a scholar as a guarantor, and she wants to ask Young Master Mu to be a guarantor." ”

Mu Qingyan's face showed a trace of embarrassment when he heard this.

That female hipster was originally bought by the Mu family, and she has not been tamed for more than ten years, and now she has been stripped of her master's rights and returned to the government.

Not only him, but also other scholars who are good friends with the Mu family, will not come out to slap the Mu family's face in this situation.

Not to mention, once Mu Dongheng knows, he will definitely be angry.

Yuchun looked at the expression on his face, and thought that he had really guessed correctly by the young lady: "My young lady said, if it is inconvenient for Young Master Mu to come forward, can you introduce us to a family that is willing to come forward to vouch for it, no matter which side branch or family is not so well-off, we are willing to pay some honorarium to express our gratitude." ”

Shen Nishang's original words were: "Even if an ancestor passes it down, there will be rich and poor in a few generations, even if it is a scholar, it is inevitable that there will be a family that is in the middle of the road or whose descendants are not angry." We don't know, but these people who are in the same circle have more or less a number in their hearts. You go and ask him if he knows of such a candidate. ”

Mu Qing's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he really thought of a candidate.

He called the little fan and said a few words, and the little fan had been listening to the side, and he also felt very good when he heard this candidate: "Yes, the third master will come forward in this matter, and the clan will not be silent." Minions, let's go—"

As he spoke, he turned to leave.

Mu Qing thought for a while and shouted to him: "Don't worry, let's bring the silver and let the third master bring people back first...... and he was first placed in his house. ”

The little fan nodded and smiled at him: "Young master, don't worry, this matter will be handled properly for you!"

Mu Qingxian hadn't yet comprehended the meaning of the little fan's smile, and when he reacted, the little fan had already disappeared.

On the side, Yuchun's eyes widened, although he also heard that things seemed to be settled, but obviously he didn't understand what kind of charter Mu Qing was, so he only waited for Mu Qing to explain the following with wide eyes.

Mu Qing talked to Yuchun for a while, Yuchun showed a full smile and saluted Mu Qing: "I really want to thank Young Master Mu this time! ”

"It's a trifle, it's nothing. Mu Qing was a little embarrassed, "I just remembered the third master when Nishang said it, otherwise I wouldn't be able to help." ”

Yuchun happily went back to report the news.

“…… The third master is actually the Mu family, speaking of which, he is still the younger brother of the head of the Mu family, and he is from Mrs. Fang, and it is said that the third master's father was partial to this little son when he was still there. Later, as soon as the third master's father died, the Mu family said that this side lady was the second marriage, and the third master was born eight months after marriage, saying that the third master was not the Mu family...... Anyway, the ancestral hall was opened to get rid of the third master, and the side lady died directly outside the Mu family ancestral hall when she heard it. His family also has some family background, and it was a bit big at the beginning, and no one in the Mu family troubled him later, and then the third master moved his mother's dowry and set up a house outside, and he never got married, saying that every time he was drunk, he went to the door of Mu's house to scold people. Yuchun said all the way down, and explained it clearly.

After Shen Nishang listened, a trace of strangeness appeared in her eyes: "These are all what Mu Qing told you?"

"It was Young Master Mu who said it, and the slave and maid asked if they didn't understand, so he told the slave and maid. Yuchun sighed: "I originally felt that this Young Master Mu was chattering, but this time I feel that the person is quite good, and he is kind and patient when talking to the slave and maid, and there is no arrogance at all." ”

Yuchun's favorability towards Mu Qing rose, but Shen Nishang was a little speechless.

These are the family secrets of the Mu family decades ago, and Mu Qing said it to a little maid who was not very familiar with it, and he said it so carefully...... She didn't know what to say.

But after all, people helped, and she should still be grateful.

Shen Nishang was still worried about Rong Su's body, and early the next morning, he took Yuchun to Mairan Zhai.

Mai Ran Zhai did not even open a shop.

This is the first time since I met Rong Su.

"Miss, Mr. Rong?" Yuchun also showed concern.

She took Yuchun around to the back alley, where the back door was locked.

Looking at the bright padlock, Shen Nishang was extremely surprised that Rong Su was not recuperating at home, but went out......

After Tong Yuchun looked at each other in amazement, she lowered her eyes: "Go back to the car first." ”

Da'an's car had been parked in a fixed place, and when he saw them coming back, he didn't have any more inquiring expressions, so he only opened the car door and let them go up. Hearing that Shen Nishang didn't give orders to leave, he still waited in the shadow of the wall without looking at it.

In the carriage, the master and servant sat opposite each other around a low table.

Shangzi Road is very attentive, the exterior of this carriage is not inconspicuous at all, but in fact, it is solid, and the inside of the carriage is extremely comfortable.

Yuchun poured a cup of hot water for Shen Nishang: "Miss, where do you say Mr. Rong will go?"

Shen Nishang shook her head.

"We've been here for so many months, and we haven't seen Mr. Rong out of the shop. Even the purchase of goods in the shop is directly sent by people. The more Yuchun thought about it, the more strange he felt, "I saw the guy who delivered the goods from the trading house last time I came back, and he said that ordering goods from Mr. Rong like this is one and a half percent more expensive than the price! You say that Mr. Rong doesn't want to make more money? Not to mention that he goes to the production area to receive the goods like other shops, even if he goes directly to the trading house to get the goods himself, it will be half a percent cheaper, and this half percent is a lot of money in the past ten years!"

Yuchun was very sorry.

"More than ten years?" Shen Nishang heard this, "Brother Rong's shop has always been open here?"

Yuchun nodded: "It's always been here, I think about it, it seems to be fifteen or sixteen years, the guy said that the other spice shops that buy goods in their business house are either closed or bigger, and Mr. Rong hasn't changed for fifteen or six years." Yes, that's what I said. ”

“…… The slave maid has wanted to say it for a long time, Miss, what do you say about Mr. Rong? If you want to say that you want to make money, it's not such a trick, but if you want to say that you don't want to make money, we haven't seen Mr. Rong rest in the shop, and even the guys are reluctant to invite, and the slave and maid don't look at Mr. Rong like a rich person, and the kitchen is full of rice and noodles every day, and when we are not there, he must be dealing with the food......

Yu Chun chattered endlessly, and Shen Nishang fell into deep thought.

She remembered that she once asked Rong Su if she wanted to return to her hometown, and Rong Su replied to her at that time that it was "a long-cherished wish has not been fulfilled...... From the first time she saw Rong Su, she felt that Rong Su was not like a businessman, the real businessman should be like Zhang Shaodong's family, with the desire and ambition for money in his eyes, and his temperament should also be the kind of ambition or complacency, but Rong Su's whole person has nothing to do with these characteristics.

From this point of view, this "long-cherished wish" should be very important to Rong Su.

But what kind of long-cherished wish can make Rong Su endure the desire to return to his hometown, so he has been guarding this family alone for more than ten years, and he has not even had the idea of starting a family?

She knew early on that Rong Su was a person with secrets and a past, and she didn't plan to guess or find out Rong Su's secrets.

But now she's hesitant.

I don't want to guess because I respect it, and I want to guess and inquire because I care.

Rong Su's face was so bad yesterday that Shen Nishang felt that there should be something wrong with his body.

But even Mu Qing, they couldn't convince Rong Su to go to the doctor.

She couldn't help but wonder if this was also related to his "long-cherished wish", if it really had a relationship, then the cure must be uprooted, and the solution to the problem could only start from the source.

"Miss, Mr. Rong is back. Yuchun lowered the curtain of the car and turned around and whispered in surprise.

Shen Nishang looked over, Yuchun opened the curtain of the car, and saw Rong Su, who was wearing a black coat, slowly walking from another street.

It was too far away, and Shen Nishang couldn't see his expression clearly, but when he looked at it from a distance, he could also see the graceful posture of the black big body.

Slowly getting closer, I saw that the long black hair merged with the black big hair, and a few strands of hair hung down on the right cheek, which made his face more and more white, and his face was handsome and elegant.

When it was approaching the New Year, the pedestrians who came and went on the street were more or less carrying New Year's goods in their hands, and they were all hurrying away with some joy on their faces.

Only Rong Su's eyebrows were lowered and he walked quietly and slowly like a painting, revealing an empty silence that was incompatible with everything around him.

For a moment, Shen Nishang felt a slight throbbing somewhere in her heart.

Yuchun followed Shen Nishang for a while, and just wanted to speak, when she saw the expression in Shen Nisheng's eyes, she couldn't help but be stunned.

"Miss......" she murmured.

Shen Nishang turned her head calmly: "Let's go, let's go down." ”

Yuchun was a little inexplicably flustered, took the wind curtain and put it on Shen Nishang, "Oh, good." ”

The two got out of the car and went around to the back door, where Rong Su was unlocking.

"Brother Rong. Shen Nishang shouted.

Rong Su turned his head, although there was a hint of fatigue in his eyes, he also showed a faint smile: "It's windy today, come in and talk again." ”

After entering the house, Yuchun went to boil water first, and by the way, he also took a hand stove to add carbon.

Shen Nishang stood at the door and looked at the gray and blue sky outside, and said softly, "It's about to snow." ”

Rong Su took off the big man, turned his head and looked at it: "Today's eighteenth lunar month should be just these two or three days." ”

Shen Nishang suddenly turned to look at him: "Big brother is sick, why do you go out today?"

Rong Suleng paused for a moment, and soon smiled warmly: "Just walk around casually, you see that the eldest brother is not much better." ”

Shen Nishang didn't speak, but looked at him fixedly, her dark eyes were faint and clear, and her eyes were full of persistence.

Her embroidered feather purple veil was not removed, and at this time, the backlight stood up, and the luxurious and elegant green lotus color poured straight down from the shoulder, and the lotus leaves woven by the green feathers opened one after another.

She looked at him quietly.

The green silk is like a silk, and it is more and more lined with skin like condensation, like under the eyebrows of smoke and willows, and the eyes are clear and look at each other, not dodging or dodging. The obsidian-like pupils should be crystal clear at the moment, but at this moment, they are extremely deep and complex.

At the touch of a button, Rong Su was stunned, and the gentle smile on the corner of his lips disappeared.

The next moment, he turned inward, but his voice was calm: "The recipe I brought last time has been made, I'll take it for you to see how it goes." ”

Shen Nishang lowered her eyes gently.

A few steps behind him, Yuchun stood in a daze holding the hand stove.

When Shen Nishang said goodbye and left, Mu Qing just knocked on the door and entered.

The small fan squeezed in happily with a large bag and a small bag, while Kong Xiang followed closely behind him with two baskets of green charcoal more than a foot long.

Yuchun looked at the charcoal basket curiously, and the little fan put down all kinds of supplements in his hand, pointing proudly: "This is Rui charcoal, only in Xunyang Country in the west, the young master specially asked someone to buy it for Mr. to use, one can be burned for ten days, and I can't smell any smoke." ”

"Is that good?" Yuchun was surprised.

"I don't need so much for ten days, one basket is enough. Nishang can also be used when he takes a basket back. Rong Suwen said in a loud voice.

Mu Qing originally planned to do this, and when he heard this, he bowed his head: "Yes-"

"No need. Shen Ni spoke out suddenly, looked at Mu Qing and shook his head to refuse: "I'm not afraid of the cold, I don't need to." ”

Mu Qing's half-open mouth froze for a moment, the joy on his face dissipated by more than half, and the next moment, he raised his smile and said, "By the way, the third master has already bought people back, when do you think it's good to get people?"

Shen Nishang paused: "So fast?"

Mu Qing said with a smile: "This kind of matter should not be delayed, I heard that these border slaves are going to be tortured in prison, since it is to be saved, naturally the sooner the better." But it's best to pick up people at night, and don't let her show up at will, I told the third master, and said to the outside world that I sold people to other places, which is the most convenient. ”

"Are you talking about the slave of the Mu family?" Shen Nishang was still thinking about it, and Rong Su suddenly said: "You bought the hipster of the Mu family?"

When asked the second sentence, Rong Su's speech speed was a little fast, and Shen Nishang raised her eyes and saw that Rong Su's eyes seemed to reveal a trace of eagerness.

Mu Qing nodded, and smiled embarrassedly: "Actually, it's not me, it's Nishang who wants to save people, I just took a hand." ”

"Ni Shang, how did you think of saving people......? Do you know?" Rong Su looked at Shen Nisheng, his complexion was much better at the moment, his complexion was better, and his spirit seemed to be much better.

Shen Nishang looked at him deeply and said, "I've seen it a few times, but I can't say I know each other." As for saving people...... I can't say, maybe it's a close eye. ”

Rong Su smiled slowly, his eyebrows and eyes were shining for a moment, and his words were happy: "Ni Shang is very good," and looked at Mu Qing again, "Brother Qing is also very good." ”

Shen Nishang's eyes drooped, and he raised his eyes to look at Rong Su and asked, "Brother Rong came from the yamen in the morning, but he also went to ask about Bian Nu?"

Rong Su was calm this time: "I wanted to go over to inquire about the situation, but when I went, I found that the three border slaves were no longer in the yamen. One person died, and the other two were taken away by buyers. ”

The male hipster died, Shen Nishang knew it for a long time, but he didn't expect that even the ghost man was bought: "The ghost man was also bought?"

Rong Su bowed his head, and his eyes showed a touch of complexity: "He should have been bought in Wangdu, he bit off his tongue, and then he was brought to Yunzhou." Unexpectedly, it was bought only two days after arriving in Yunzhou. ”

Yuchun was shocked when he heard this: "I bit off my tongue myself, how much it hurts, how can I do it!"

Mu Qing and the others also showed surprised expressions.

"If someone were to force you to tell you a secret that you wouldn't want to tell if you died, what choice would you make?" Rong Su said in a faint voice.

"That'...... Then I might as well cut my own neck. Yuchun choked.

Shen Nishang withdrew his gaze from Rong Su's face, his eyes drooped, and he raised his eyes and said softly: "I'm afraid it's not that he doesn't want to commit suicide, but someone has threatened him with something." ”

"He's just alone, what can he threaten?" the little fan couldn't figure out.

Shen Nishang shook his head: "He is not alone, there were other border people in the royal capital at that time, and I don't know if there are any of his clansmen." And that day on the street, there was also a male hipster with him. I saw that situation, and he was protecting him. ”

"That's not a boy, it's a boy. Rong Su said slowly, "There has been an unwritten custom of the border people throughout the ages, but whenever you meet a child who is outcast, whether you are of the same race or not, as long as it is a child who has not grown up, other adults must do their best to protect each other. Although hippies are born with divine powers, in fact, hippie men are not born with divine powers, and they can only be turned on after the age of ten after a ritual is held in the clan. The playful boy...... Should not be under the age of ten. ”

"Big brother knows so much. Mu Qing's eyes were full of admiration.

Rong Su smiled: "I am four in my Chinese New Year's Eve, more than twice as old as you." These are nothing, the older people are, the more places they have walked, the more they naturally know. When you reach the age of the eldest brother, you will definitely be a hundred times more profitable than the eldest brother. ”

The eldest brother said something like that again. Mu Qing looked at Rong Su, "I'm almost eighteen, and my eldest brother still uses me as a child." ”

Rong Su smiled but said nothing.

"By the way, who bought that ghost man? I can't say that I can buy it, who is it?" The little fan wanted to ask for a long time, but when he finished speaking, he interjected and asked.

As he spoke, he looked at Rong Su.

Rong Su smiled on his face and shook his head: "I am not a scholar, I only heard that the person has been bought, but as for the buyer, I can't find out." ”

Mu Qing suddenly became interested and proposed: "Ni Shang, if I don't go and inquire, I see that this ghost man is also a man, if it can be done, we can simply save it together!"

Shen Nishang smiled lightly: "Okay." ”

Hearing Shen Nishang answer, seeing her smile on her face again, Mu Qing's mood was even more excited: "Okay, I'll go and inquire!"

Rong Su glanced at the two of them and did not speak again.

Shen Ni bowed her head, and there was still a slight smile on her face: "It's okay, sooner rather than later." Then I'm sorry for you. ”

"Where is the luck, it's a trivial matter. ”

Mu Qing smiled when he heard this, and then strode away.

Originally, it was Shen Nishang who was leaving, but now it has become Mu Qing, who has just arrived, and there are only their master and servant plus Rong Su left in the courtyard.

Rong Su looked at her with a smile: "Why don't you sit down for a while?"

Shen Nishang raised her eyes quietly, and there was no smile on her lips: "Brother Rong, do you have something to say to me?"

The north wind suddenly brought a bit of coldness, and the green silk danced on the side of her cheeks, but she didn't move, looking at each other with a faint smile, her eyes were quiet and quiet.

Rong Su didn't make a sound, and after a while, he smiled and bowed: "You two are good boys, this time it involves border slaves, you should be more careful in your actions." ”

"I am me, he is him. A hint of sarcasm flashed in Shen Nishang's eyes, and the speed of her speech suddenly became two points faster, "Listening to the eldest brother's tone, it is not like our eldest brother, but like an elder." ”

"I was originally your elder. Rong Su still smiled and replied calmly.

The smile on Shen Nishang's lips disappeared, and Yuchun suddenly stepped forward: "Miss, let's go, Da'an is still waiting outside." ”

Shen Ni bowed her head, and when she arrived at the door, she turned to look at Rong Su, who was still standing in the same place, seeing her looking back, a smile appeared on his face, although he did not speak, his eyes were warm and concerned.

Looking at his figure, which was thinner than when he first met, Shen Nishang couldn't bear it after all.

"Brother Rong, everything is nothing more important than your body, I'm afraid it will be even more cold these days, Brother Rong take care of yourself. She gently instructed, "Since there are medicinal materials, the eldest brother also knows medical principles, if there is a suitable use, remember to use more." ”

Rong Su smiled and nodded: "Big brother understands." ”

Shen Nishang looked at him again, turned around and left.

Back in the car, Yuchun looked at her uneasily.

Shen Nishang couldn't see anything on his face.

Yuchun's heart was tangled, and he didn't know how to talk about it, let alone whether to speak.

Shen Nishang glanced at her, leaned on the car and closed her eyes to rest.

Yuchun was humbled by Shen Nisheng's glance, but after following Shen Nishang for so long, she also understood what Shen Nishang meant, such a look only appeared when Shen Nishang was in a very bad mood, and it also meant that Shen Nishang didn't want to listen to her at the moment.

Yuchun was depressed.

She thought that Shen Nishang should have guessed what she wanted to say, so she deliberately interrupted Shen Nishang to talk to Rong Su, and used Da'an as an excuse, others didn't know that Shen Nishang naturally knew that she was nonsense, how could she not guess her careful thoughts.

And at this moment, Shen Nisheng's expression obviously didn't want to talk about this topic with her.

The carriage slowed down, and Yuchun lifted the curtain and looked: "Miss, where are we going?"

When they got into the car, they didn't give orders, and when the carriage reached the intersection, Da'an stopped.

Shen Nishang closed her eyes lightly: "Go to the bookstore." ”

Yuchun let out an "oh", and was not surprised.

Shen Nishang is a good book, and likes to read books when she is in a good mood and when she is bad.

Now, it's ...... Not in a good mood.

She thought silently.

Mr. Rong is not bad, but he is much older than Miss, and his health is not good, and he doesn't know where his hometown is, and even she feels that it is not suitable.

Mrs. Si is only thirty-three, and Mr. Rong is one year older than Mrs. Si, if this matter comes out...... She didn't dare to think about it. Fortunately, Mr. Rong could see it, and she was slightly relieved.

The road was not far, and soon the bookstore arrived.

In the past two months, Shen Nishang has also been here twice.

Although it is not as much as the first time to buy, the amount of silver spent is also a lot in Yuchun's opinion.

Every time Shen Nishang said that she wanted to go to the bookstore, Yuchun felt a pain in her flesh.

But today, she wished that Shen Nishang would buy more books, buy more new books, and spend more time reading.

But Shen Nishang looked upstairs from downstairs to upstairs, and it took half an hour to look at them one by one, but she didn't like any of them.

Yuchun followed for a long time, his hands were still empty, and he felt strange in his heart.

Seeing this, the guy next to him asked, "The girl is looking for a book?"

"Do you have any anecdotes and miscellaneous travelogues here?" Shen Nishang stopped and asked.

The guy thought for a moment and pointed to the row he had just walked by: "Isn't there one over there?"

"Where are they?" Shen Nishang shook her head, pondered for a moment before asking with a little deep meaning, "There are no older ones, such as hundreds of years, or strange people and miscellaneous stories from the previous dynasty?"

The guy showed a look of surprise on his face, and lowered his voice: "The girl wants to buy classics related to border slaves?"

Shen Nishang's eyes flashed, and he looked at him and didn't answer.

The guy had been working in the bookstore for many years, so he naturally knew it in his heart, and smiled when he saw this: "Although the girl can rest assured, the little one is doing this business, and there are a few guests like the girl." People are curious, and it is common sense to ask. The girl is also an old customer, and the little one won't talk nonsense. ”

Shen Nishang has always been cautious, and when she heard the guy say this, she only smiled and didn't say anything.

Three hundred years ago, Middle-earth was a country, and its territory was boundless, not only accommodating the seven kingdoms today, but even the border people belonged to the people of the previous dynasty, and many border people lived in Middle-earth.

After the Great War of China and Turkey, the former dynasty divided the seven countries and went their own way, but the border people trampled on it overnight.

After the establishment of the Seven Kingdoms, not only did they issue edicts to denounce the border people as slaves, but also banned many books from the previous dynasties, especially those involving the border people.

Even now, most people in the world are born lowly and deserve to be slaves just as border people, but there are very few who really know the inside story or the specifics.

In the Mi family collection, Shen Nishang has only seen a classic book about border people, which only involves strange images of border people such as hippies and ghosts, and nothing else is mentioned.

Even the fact that the hip people were born with divine power was only told to her by Yuchun after she saw the female hip of the Mu family. And Yuchun obviously knows that it is also fur, Rong Su doesn't mention it today, and they don't know the difference between men and women.

The guy "pedaled" down, Yuchun leaned to the staircase to probe, saw that the guy said a few words to the shopkeeper, ran to the back hall, came up after a while, opened the oil paper in his hand, and handed a book to Shen Nisheng: "How about the girl?"

Shen Nishang looked at the cover and was familiar with it, took it and shook his head: "I've read this book." ”

The guy handed over the following book, but on the cover was the words "Thousand Character Text".

Looking at the smile on the guy's face, Shen Nishang realized something in her heart, took it and opened it and turned two pages: "I want this book, but is there anything else?"

The guy smiled bitterly and shook his head: "If it weren't for the fact that the girl was an old customer and a sincere person, the little one wouldn't dare to take this risk no matter how much he wanted to make money." These two books have already taken a great risk by the shop, and every time they sell one copy and copy the other, where can there be more? The girl has taken a fancy to this volume, and the store has sold this volume in the girl's hand in the past two years. Although it is not complete, Yunzhou City is afraid that it will not be able to find a more complete one. Shen Nishang appreciated, nodded, and motioned for Yuchun to pay the bill.

Naturally, such a book cannot be recorded below.

Yuchun asked the price, and suddenly lost his voice: "Forty taels! Where is it so expensive-"

The guy hurriedly made a "shhhh

All the way back to the Shen Mansion, Yuchun was still settling the accounts with her fingers, she was sensitive to silver, and they had a total of more than 700 taels of silver in the account, so she naturally calculated it clearly, but she just deliberately wanted to show Shen Nisheng.

"Alas, it's only three hundred and eighty-nine taels. Yuchun pretended to talk to himself.

Shen Nishang ignored it, walked straight to the room, and closed the door directly.

Yuchun looked at the door panel, and comforted himself after being speechless for a long time, but Shen Nishang was interested in that book, so he shouldn't be cranky.

Shen Nishang let go of the pages of the book, and looked at it very carefully and attentively.

A total of 10 border races are recorded in this book.

Like a child, he is born with divine powers......

The Bailing clan was born with a beautiful singing voice, and both men and women have outstanding and moving complexions......

The night clan has a snow-white complexion, hair like silver threads, and can only see night vision when they see the sun......

The ghost human race, with a half-black and half-white complexion, is as ugly as a rakshasa......

The Snow Clan is tall and crude......

Sea tribes live on the sea and like to eat fish raw......

The book is the same as the "Thousand Character Text" of the same thickness, but there are only about ten pages in the middle.

The above six tribes have added a few notes, and there are separate pictures next to them, only mentioned on the last page, in addition to these six tribes, there are also Tingtian tribes, Wendi tribes, cicada cloth tribes, closed mouth tribes, rock tribes, and so on among the border people.

The last of these people mentioned have no information other than a name.

Shen Nishang counted carefully, and the book mentioned that there were only eleven clans in total. There is no Jade Clan mentioned by Rong Su and Mu Qing, there is no Companion Beast Clan mentioned by Mu Qing, and there is no Soul Clan mentioned by Rong Su.

Rong Su said that there are 18 ethnic groups in the border people, and Mu Qing said that there are 17 ethnic groups in the border people.

Shen Nishang looked at the picture on the page, which depicted a hideous and strange-looking human being on the beach, revealing his upper body, holding a foot-long fish in his hand, biting and eating, and blood flowed all over his body......

She silently quickly turned the book again, tore off the dozen or so pages, and set them on fire.

She summoned Yuchun in.

"How much do you know about the border people?" she asked Yuchun.

Yuchun was at a loss: "I've told Miss everything I know." After a pause, "Does the young lady want to find out how to place that female hipster again?"

"I mean, how does the government distinguish the border people?" she didn't correct Yuchun, but asked, "Doesn't it mean that some border people look exactly like the people of Middle Earth?"

"Miss asks this, it's very simple. Yuchun suddenly realized: "The government will test the blood, the blood of the border people is dissolved with the blood of the people of Middle-earth, and if it does not change color, it is the same as the people of Middle-earth, and if it changes color, it is the border people." ”

Can it still be like this?

Shen Nishang thought that the blood test was complicated when she heard it at first, but it turned out to be so simple.

She was thoughtful.

"Miss, the government is not so easy to fool. Yuchun saw that Shen Nishang really didn't think about anything else, and naturally wanted to do it in his heart, "Even if the people of Middle-earth are sold into slavery or born to get a household registration, the government must first take a blood test before applying for a household registration." I heard that the one in the Mu family, the one we saved, was tested by the government when he was sold into slavery, as if he was only seven or eight years old at that time. It's really stupid, if she hadn't sold herself by herself, she wouldn't have been caught with a slave mark, the slave mark would be five points deep, and she would have to see the bones all the time, and it hurts to think about it. ”

Shen Nishang listened to her words in her ears, but she was thinking about where else to inquire about the news.

But after thinking about it, I couldn't find a place.

No, there may be one place.

When she was in the Mi family, she heard the slave of the Mi family mention that the eldest young master of the Mi family still has a study, and the really out-of-print classics of the Mi family are hidden in that study by the eldest young master of the Mi family.

At that time, she had an idea, but then she ran and ran into a scene that she shouldn't have seen, and she hurried away.

At this point, there was no longer any thought of the past.

She shouldn't have given up.

Xiao Cui's voice sounded outside the door, Yuchun hurriedly went out, and came in after a while, saying that Mrs. Si called the tailor and asked Shen Nishang to go out and measure it so that she could make clothes.

Shen Nishang said: "Aren't all clothes made by new talents?"

The clothes she is wearing now are all newly made before she moved to the courtyard, and except for two or three of the original old clothes, the others have been disposed of according to Mrs. Si's words.

Yuchun smiled when she heard this: "How long has it been since Miss has looked in the mirror carefully?" said and pushed Shen Nishang to the frame, "No, Miss take a look." ”

Shen Nishang looked at it now, she didn't know if she didn't look at it, and she was really stunned when she saw it.

"Since the young lady moved here, she has been an inch taller, and her face has become better. Yuchun praised happily, "The complexion is better, and the slave looks much better than before." The lady's clothes are all made according to the original size, and the outer clothes are okay, but the inner clothes should be redone. The slave and maid looked a little strangled yesterday. ”

Yuchun said, pointing to her chest with a low voice.

Shen Nishang looked down and understood that Yuchun was referring to the chezi she was wearing.

The underwear of this era is not a belly pocket, but a chezi that wraps the chest and waist tightly, and Shen Nishang prefers such underwear with a certain shaping effect than a belly pocket.

"It's not easy for outsiders to do this, right?" she asked, and in her impression, wasn't it supposed to make underwear herself.

Yuchun shook his head and smiled: "What I do is not as good as what they do, and those rich ladies and ladies are all made by them." There is a special Hezi Niang in the shop, and the Hezi is the most satisfying. This kind of close-fitting clothes is actually the most important, and no matter how good you wear it outside, it is not comfortable. What's more, the young lady is still growing up now, and the materials they make are different, which most people don't have. ”

Since this is the case, Shen Nishang didn't say much and followed.

Sure enough, when she arrived in Mrs. Si's room, the woman who measured the clothes asked Shen Nishang to take off her coat, carefully measured it up and down along her waist and chest, and then measured the dimensions of all parts of her body before collecting her things and leaving.

There was a dragon burning in the house, so there was no chill.

Mrs. Si was reclining on the Luohan bed, a little maid was beating her legs, Mrs. Si was leaning lazily, her eyes were smiling at Shen Nishang's chest, naked and obviously meaningful.

Yuchun Xiaocui served Shen Nishang to put on her clothes, and Mrs. Si raised her eyebrows to look at him, her eyes were very proud and playful, and she had no intention of restraint.

Shen Nishang couldn't, so she had to praise her heart: "Thank you Madame's goat milk tea, the effect is extraordinary." ”

Only then did the master show a satisfied look of "you know each other and know each other", and reached out to take the tea handed by Miaozhen and drank: "Let's go down." ”

Except for Miaozhen, the others retreated with Yuchun.

"How did you do what you said the day before yesterday?" Mrs. Si looked at her.

Shen Nishang didn't expect Mrs. Si to still remember this incident in her heart, and she was a little moved, she nodded: "It's done, the person has redeemed it, and now it's placed elsewhere." I thought about it now, and then I would pick her up and place her in the Nancheng mansion in a few days, and then ask her what she meant, and then talk about anything else. ”

"You want to let her go?" asked Mrs. Si.

Shen Nishang nodded.

This is the best way, after all, she has a good background, and it is impossible for her to go in and out with a hipster.

"That hipster has been in the Mu family for seventeen years, do you know?" Mrs. Si said suddenly.

Shen Nishang was stunned, a little incomprehensible.

Mrs. Si smiled: "How did she get into the Mu family, do you know?"

She had just heard this from Yuchun, so she replied: "I heard that it was the Mu family that sold itself when she was a child. ”

"Then have you ever thought about why there are no elders around her?" said Mrs. Si, "The border people have always been very close to children, and will never let children leave their clan alone, let alone enter Middle-earth. There must have been elders around her at the time, but later she entered the self-selling club, which means that her elders are no longer there. She has been in the Mu family for seventeen years, and Mo said that she remembers whether she remembers the land of the hip people, and even if she does, how can you let her go back? She was young when she left the clan, and she already had a slave mark on her hand, plus she had been a slave in Middle-earth for almost twenty years, even if she returned to the clan land, the hip people might not be able to accept her. ”

"Why?" Shen Nishang didn't understand. (To be continued.) )
