Chapter 58: The Hairpin

Patches of withered yellow willow leaves floated on the clear water, like small flat boats swimming in one direction. The waves are clear, and the green water is murmuring.

Half on the stone bridge in the middle of the water, the man in the power suit took a step forward towards the woman, and the man who looked like a scholar beside the woman also took a step in front of the woman.

"It turns out that Xiao Gongzi is also here." Xiao Lei completely blocked the stone vines behind him, covering even a trace of the corners of his clothes. Brother An had to face up to the scholar who broke into his sight.

"It is said that Zheng Zhutou has amazing insight and can find the real murderer through many clues. It turns out that this is nothing more than this, I don't know if there will be progress in the Baiyi Pharmacy case? Xiao Lei sarcastically. He saw Brother An's gaze staring at Shi Manman, and unconsciously turned into a hen protecting her cubs. If Xiao Lei has feathers on his body, I'm afraid it has exploded.

Brother An put his hands in his arms and said casually: "This official does not handle official business today, and he will not mention any official business. ”

"Then Xiaosheng won't disturb the official's rest day." Xiao Lei said goodbye to Brother An, and it was better for Shi Manman to stay away from this kind of person.

"Manman, Chaorong Street is in front, let's go." He grabbed the stone vine and left.

"I happen to be going to Chaorong Street too." Xiao Lei almost wanted to bite off his tongue, why did he tell the destination. Clear-eyed people can see that Brother An intends to follow them.

Shi Manman didn't care if there was one more person beside her, she was dazzled by the bustling street market, and she didn't listen to Brother An talking on the side. Xiao Lei secretly paid attention to what Brother An said, and after listening to it for a long time, it was just inconsequential gossip and put his mind at ease.

The three of them looked at each other and listened to each other, and walked around most of Chaorong Street.

"Poof." A purse with the scent of fat powder slammed into the foot of the stone vine. Shi Manman looked away, and a woman holding a brocade handkerchief half-covering her face glanced at the lonely purse at Shi Manman's feet with annoyance, and saw Shi Manman looking at her, she didn't have a trace of shame, and glared at her angrily, Shi Manman was at a loss.

Xiao Lei looked thoughtfully at the woman's eyes drifting to one place, it was Brother An. The eyes that are shy to be let go are full of admiration.

In the era in which Xiao Lei lived, it was rare to hear that there were wars and conflicts between the country and its neighbors, and there were songs and dances everywhere, and the country and the people were safe. It is precisely in this way that Xiao Lei's national customs are more open than those of the leading countries.

The woman originally wanted to throw her purse to Brother An to show her love for the man. I don't know when this custom began, Xiao Lei has never seen it before, but today it made him see it.

Shi Manman wanted to bend down to pick up the purse, but Xiao Lei secretly pulled her down.

Xiao Lei's stop made Shi Manman stunned for a moment, and then she thought that the "Chronicles of Mountains and Rivers" in her mind had described such a custom, and she also looked at Brother An like Xiao Lei. I don't know if he will pick up the purse, if he accepts the purse, he will accept the other party's heart.

Brother An walked straight forward as if he hadn't seen anything.

The woman's blushing face was filled with tears, and she turned her head and trotted away. Even if the people's customs are open again, such a thing will inevitably become a laughing stock after being rejected. That's why the woman covered half of her face with a brocade just now, for fear of being recognized when she encountered such a thing.

"Is he going to follow us all the time?" Shi Manman glanced at Brother An's figure, Chaorong Street was about to come to an end, and Brother An didn't seem to have reached the meaning of his destination yet.

Xiao Lei had a flash of inspiration and whispered in Shi Manman's ear when Brother An faced another flying purse.

Brother An suppressed a flame in his heart at this moment, if it weren't for the stone vines, that flame would definitely burn the woman who threw him into ashes.

Overwhelmed and dodged one purse after another, the afterglow was aimed at the moment when Xiao Lei left next to Shi Manman's ear. Xiao Lei seemed to see his gaze, Shi Shiran smiled in return, he had a bad premonition.

"Mine! It's mine! Childe took my purse! ”

Before Brother An could figure out the meaning from Xiao Lei's smile, Brother An stepped back with his left foot and bent back to avoid a pounced figure with the fragrant breeze.

"Childe, you took the slave's purse, remember, remember to go to the slave's house to propose......" Brother An stood firm, where is there still the shadow of Shi Manman and Xiao Lei. The woman who spoke wanted to get close to Brother An again, but was shocked by his cold and poisonous eyes like snakes and scorpions, and for some reason a layer of goosebumps appeared on the skin under his clothes.

Brother An, who was being teased, had a tyrannical killing intent in his heart, and he didn't know how he could have this extra purse in his hand in his hands in his best efforts to dodge, but if it was Shi Yanman, he would definitely be able to do it.

"Childe, childe...... You have to remember......" A woman's voice came from behind her, and Brother An's pursed lips cracked slightly into a grim smile.

Later, I don't know when Shicheng started, a girl disappeared at home inexplicably, which caused the entire Shicheng family to have an unmarried girl, and they were all worried, but this is all a later story.

"I'll add one more, except for cultivators, stay away from Zheng Zhutou." Xiao Lei didn't know why Brother An was interested in Shi Man, but this extremely dangerous person was better to stay away.

Shi Manman nodded, even if Xiao Lei didn't say it, she didn't want to have contact with this person.

I didn't meet Brother An many times, but every time I came into contact, Brother An felt a little more dangerous to Shi Manman.

"It's getting late, let's go home." Street vendors have already begun to tidy up their stalls, and the laden pedestrians are returning home with smiles on their faces. The crowds of the bustling street market have thinned out.

After Xiao Lei finished speaking, he went to look at Shi Manman, but when he turned around, he didn't see the other party's figure. He remembered that when he had just returned to Stone City, Shi Manman had suddenly disappeared beside him like this. He looked around in place, glad that there were few pedestrians at this time, and he immediately saw a stone vine wearing a long skirt of Shui Fu not far away.

"The girl has good eyesight, and this hairpin is the best material and color of all the hairpins." When the peddler saw Shi Manman pick up a dark ink-colored hairpin, he immediately enthusiastically introduced it. Although it's time to close the stall, if you can make one more deal, you can add more vegetables tonight.

"Do you like it?" Xiao Lei was reluctant to let go when he saw Shi Manman holding a hairpin of unknown material, and asked out loud.

"Yes." At first, Shi Manman just saw that there were many beautiful jade stones on this stall, and after a curious second look, he found this hairpin lying in the inconspicuous corner.

This hairpin does not even have a single carved flower except for its special color, and it looks like a rough semi-finished product made by a craftsman. But when Shi Manman picked up the hairpin, the warmth of the hand made her like it immediately. Perhaps because he was originally made of stone, he has a more keen love and perception of ore.

"How much?" Xiao Lei took out the money bag and said.

"Three...... Thirty texts. The hawker hesitated to quote the price, and the price for this inconspicuous hairpin was already very high.

Xiao Lei didn't bargain and gave the other party money.

The hawker took the money and was happy to bloom, and the hairpin that he had no intention of picking up, because the appearance of the material had not been able to be sold, and he didn't expect to meet the wealthy master today.
