"There's a jade shop over there, let's go in and have a look."

"A jade shop?" Xiao Cui licked the sugar man and looked in the direction Leng Ruolan said. It's boring, it's deserted in front of the door, and there are not a few people in sight

"Miss, let's not go to that kind of place, you see that there is no one walking around there, there must be nothing to see." Yes, it must not be much to see! "Let's go to the front, it's lively ahead."

"You know all day long to see the excitement, Miss Zhuang is serious, how can you come nonsense!" Xiyu shouted.

"Oh, Sister Xiyu has taught her the right lesson, Xiao Cui shouldn't just watch the excitement," Xiao Cui saw that something was wrong, and quickly admitted her mistake, "Miss, let's go into that treasure Zhai and see what treasures are hidden inside." ”

Xi Yu "hum" and turned his head. Xiao Cui didn't think so, laughed and ran to the treasure house on the other street, thinking that they were walking too slowly, twisting her head to urge.

Leng Ruolan smiled helplessly, shook her head, and followed with the other two, "Slow down, watch the road carefully, don't bump into it." ”

Xi Yu, who had always been calm and self-contained in front of Leng Ruolan, suddenly spit out a sentence, "Miss, don't pay attention to her, when she bumps into her, she will naturally know the pain" Leng Ruolan was stunned for a moment, and once again determined that there was a problem with this person's neural circuit today!

A few people walked into the treasure house, turned around, Xiao Cui, who was already lacking in interest, didn't even bother to move, retreated to the door, looked at the excitement outside longingly, and turned back to look at the jade one by one pitifully and looked at the master seriously.

She really didn't understand Miss, what was so nice about these things. Can't eat, it's not fresh, if you carve the shape, you can see the novelty, if it's just like that, a broken stone, except for a little smoother, what else is there to see?! Wearing it on her body, she is still too heavy, and these things are worth a lot of silver, if she accidentally didn't look at it, she lost it, and she didn't have to die of heartache

Leng Ruolan looked at Xiao Cui's uncertain appearance with amusement, turned her head and looked at a few more pieces of jade, as if she finally couldn't stand the humanoid spinning top that was spinning over there, sighed, and said to Xiao Shi, who was guarding the door as soon as she came in, "Xiao Shi, you can take Xiao Cui out to play, you don't have to guard it here." ”

"How can this be?!" Before Xiao Shi could reply, Xiao Cui rushed in.

"Little Stone was sent by the old lady to wait for the young lady, and he can't leave his post without permission," Little Stone said seriously.

"I'll have to pick up here for a while, and I don't have much to wait for. It's Xiaocui, at such a young age, it's the time to love to play, but with me, the opportunity to come out is very rare, today I finally came out of a trip, I want her to see more, but let her go out and I don't worry, can't Brother Shi take her for me? Leng Ruolan babbled a lot, her attitude was sincere, and her tone was gentle mixed with self-blame and request.

If it were in modern times, her expression at the moment would be one word: exaggerated, and more directly: pretend! It's a pity that this is ancient times, and the person who plays against her is still a simple little boy who "bows down" under her pomegranate skirt, so the effect is still leveraged

Xiyu stood beside Leng Ruolan quietly with her head down, and became the competent personal maid again.

"Xiaocui Xiaocui" Xiaocui doesn't like to play. Xiao Cui was anxious when she heard Leng Ruolan's words, and hurriedly spoke, but she just got up and chewed and silenced, and retreated to the side to watch quietly.

Miss seemed to really want me to go out, and Sister Xiyu didn't speak

"This" In the face of such a cold Ruolan, Xiao Shi was very embarrassed, "Then no one stays here"

"And Xiyu, it's okay to have her stay here and wait, it's okay anyway. Brother Shi, you should do me a favor, Xiaocui is like my sister, I hope she can see more of the outside world," Before Xiao Shi finished speaking, Leng Ruolan grabbed the conversation and said sincerely.

The little stone didn't make a sound, and looked down to consider. Leng Ruolan didn't bother him and waited quietly.

Finally, "Okay, then I'll go out on the street with Miss Xiaocui, and the young lady will continue to stay here and choose slowly." ”

"Well, that's it, I'll come back here to find me when you're done shopping," Leng Ruolan smiled and said after concluding, she raised her voice and called, "Xiyu"

Xiyu stepped forward, took out a few taels of silver, and handed it to the small stone.

The little stone looked at it, but didn't answer.

"I'll take a look at what novelty I see when I buy it," Leng Ruolan explained with a smile.

"Miss Xie," Xiao Cui, who had not spoken for a long time, jumped over happily and stretched out her hand to take the silver in Xiyu's hand.

Xi Yu shrank his hand, pushed it again, and directly stuffed the silver into Xiao Shi's hand, "This one is for you, and you may not be able to buy all the snacks," of course, the latter words were said by Chong Xiaocui.

Xiao Cui withdrew her hand aggrievedly and muttered in a low voice, "How can I have"

"Watch for me, don't let her run around, it's trouble," Leng Ruolan Yingying said sincerely.

Xiao Shi was startled, and hurriedly returned the salute and said respectfully, "Young lady, don't worry, the little one will take good care of Miss Xiaocui." ”

"Well, then you can go."

"Yes."

"Miss, shall I go play?"

"Well, go ahead. When you see something new, come back and tell me about it. ”

"Yes, Cui knows."

Leng Ruolan smiled and watched the two of them walk out of the Treasure Zhai, and then slowly turned around and picked up a small jade carving of Maitreya Buddha that had been put aside before and looked at it carefully. Under the honest smiling face of Maitreya Buddha, his face became condensed little by little. The slender five fingers rubbed (rubbing) the warm white jade, for a long time, it seemed that he had finally made up his mind, put down the jade in his hand, and walked to the inner room of the treasure Zhai step by step, firm and resolute.

Xiyu looked around, nodded to the shopkeeper, and walked in.

In the already deserted store, only a listless old shopkeeper squinted and snoozed on the street

Maitreya Buddha lay quietly on the brocade, laughing at the world's stupidity, the world's stupid intrigue, calculating, calculating, in the end, it is not turned into dust, scattered in the wind, why bother, why bother

As Leng Ruolan walked into the inner room of the Treasure Zhai, she found two acquaintances standing inside. One is a court that comes and goes freely and disappears all day long; The other was the rouge lady she had seen on the street ten days earlier.

Chao Yan was standing straight at the door like a pine, and when he saw Leng Ruolan coming in, he immediately stepped aside and said respectfully, "Chao Yan has seen Miss." ”

Leng Ruolan bowed slightly, but her gaze fell on the woman behind him.

Qin Luoyue not only did not dodge Leng Ruolan's gaze, but instead looked straight back, looking at her while she was looking at herself. It's this person, she's seen this person before, she's only seen it once, and I don't know why she found her. Yesterday, when the man who claimed to be Chaoyan came to the door, she thought that the other party was looking for the wrong person, but he swore that it was her who his young lady was looking for, and today he came to see what was going on.

Looking at the other party's expression, it seems that he really didn't find the wrong person, but why is this?
