Chapter 423: I've Run Into a Rip-off
Why she feels this way, she can't say it herself, in short, it's selfishness.
If she could, she hoped that no one in the entire capital would know about the person King Wuling, especially girls.
Of course, this wish is more unrealistic, and she doesn't want to.
Who is King Wuling? That is the Daqi Dynasty, the only foreign surname prince, that is the most noble and famous man besides the emperor.
Wen Xueru's feeling is actually possessiveness, and everyone has possessiveness, some light and some heavy.
"Mother-in-law, are you hungry? Would you like to buy something for you to eat? β
"I'm not hungry, I'm coming out after dinner."
"It's been a few hours since dinner, it's okay to eat a little more, you wait for me."
"The little girl is back, I don't eat, I'm really not hungry, don't break the bank!"
The faster the old woman shouted, the faster she ran, and the soles of her feet were like a motor.
"Alas... What a stupid child..."
Seeing Wen Xueru's simple and sincere appearance, the old woman was a little unhappy in her heart.
A stranger treats you so sincerely, and you are deceiving her, no matter how you say it, it's your own fault.
"Silly boy, I'm lying to you, and you're so nice to me... Alas..."
The conscience began to be condemned, and the ingot of silver in his arms was already burning a little painful in his chest.
Wen Xueru went to buy baked cakes, ran all the way over, ran back, and looked at the past at a glance. It's just a frizzy person.
I was about to get to the old woman's side and accidentally bumped into a passerby.
It can also be said that the passerby suddenly stepped back and bumped into her.
Both of them fell to the ground, Wen Xueru's baked cake fell, and the passerby's lantern also fell.
"It hurts..."
Wen Xue's forehead hit the man's back, and the back was very hard, hitting her skull, and it hurt suddenly.
I have to say that the man's back is quite hard and thick, taking King Wuling as an example, there is no soft muscle in the whole body.
Every time she hugged him to sleep, Wen Xueru would feel very awkward, but she couldn't do it if she didn't hug him.
You can't get married in the future, and you can sleep in separate beds, so it's not bad for you to get used to it in advance.
If you have time, you still have to discuss it with King Wuling to see if you can persuade him to eat more and grow more fat, so that she can hold her more comfortably.
Wen Xueru hadn't gotten up yet, and the man had already arrived in front of her, his eyes wide open with anger, and he was murderous.
"Uh..."
Princess Wuling was sweating all over her head, but she just bumped into it, this big brother, you are angry like this bird, is it a bit too much?
The man was indeed very angry, so angry that his muscles were exposed, and his eyes were as wide as copper bells, as if he was going to eat people.
"Big brother..."
"It's useless to call Dad, how can you compensate for breaking my things!"
"Huh?"
Something breaks, what breaks? I didn't hear a click.
The man pointed to the ground, which was a lantern, which was supposed to be the lantern sold at the temple fair.
"This..."
Wen Xueru looked at the lantern, then at the man, her eyes rolled around, and then she said with a smile: "This big brother, I will compensate you for one, how much money, I will give the money directly." β
Wen Xueru happily came to visit the temple fair, so she didn't want to be affected by an outsider at all.
That lantern doesn't look very expensive, it's probably just a matter of a few copper plates.
If it can be solved by spending a few copper plates, it is not impossible to break this wealth.
Endure the calm for a while, take a step back and open the sky, if you quarrel on this street, it will be eye-catching, and it will be your boss lady who will be embarrassed.
Wen Xueru got up, patted the dust on her body, and waited for the man to quote a price.
It's a pity that she still underestimated human nature after all, endured the calm for a while, and took a step back to open the sky, which is not a virtue that everyone has.
There is absolutely no man in front of him, and if there is, he will not take the opportunity to blackmail.
If it weren't for him closing his eyes and taking a step back, how could Wen Xueru bump into him, according to the position of the third person, this collision is simply the man's responsibility.
Bent down to pick up the baked cakes on the ground, fortunately there was a paper bag to wrap it, and it was not dirty and could be eaten.
When the man saw Wen Xueru talking so well, he immediately thought that she was a weak, incompetent, timid and fearful girl.
So he became arrogant, clasped his hands to his chest, and coldly reported a number: "One or two silver." β
Just these four short words, almost didn't make Wen Xueru the baked cake in her hand, and she was so frightened that she fell to the ground again.
"A tael of silver?"
Wen Xueru repeated, vaguely wanting to laugh.
"That's right, it's just a tael of silver, I just bought it, I don't believe you go ask the boss."
"Hmm..."
Wen Xueru frowned, looking pensive.
Popular science, one tael of silver is a thousand copper plates.
1,000 copper plates, about enough for a family of three to have a month's worth of food, clothing, and living.
The Yangchun noodles sold outside are only two copper plates, three copper plates and a bowl.
So it's not an exaggeration to say that this two silver lanterns are sky-high.
Wen Xueru is not a fool, your papier-mΓ’chΓ© lantern is worth one or two silver, I'm afraid it wasn't nominated by the emperor, right?
"This big brother, are you mistaken about the price? Are you sure it's a tael of silver, not a copper plate? β
Although she knew that this man was taking the opportunity to blackmail, Wen Xueru still wanted to be honest and seducing, guide him to the right path, and not always make such ill-gotten gains.
"You heard it right, it's just a tael of silver, hurry up and get the money, I'm busy."
The man stretched out his hand in front of Wen Xueru, like a beggar begging for food, begging along the street, stretching out a bowl to people, in exactly the same posture.
"You..."
It's too much, it's not such a sky-high asking price, a few copper plates were blown into one or two silver by you, even if it's the emperor, he can't stand your blackmail.
Wen Xueru suddenly raised her hand and touched the man's forehead, the man instinctively retreated, but accidentally fell himself on his back.
"It hurts..."
It's painful for him to change now, and it's normal for it to hurt, you are such a little girl, can you have a good conscience?
God doesn't have long eyes, otherwise a thunderbolt will come down, and you will be confused.
"Ugh..."
Wen Xueru looked at him, and the hand was frozen in mid-air, not knowing whether to accept it or not.
"You guy, you dare to do a sneak attack!"
The man was furious, and the anger in his heart towards Wen Xueru went to another level.
Wen Xueru felt inexplicably wronged, how could she engage in a sneak attack?
No matter how you say it, she is also a weak woman, and she makes a sneak attack in front of a big man of you, isn't this looking for death?
"I'm sorry, this big brother, I just want to touch your forehead to see if you have a fever or something, I really didn't want to sneak up on you, I don't know why, you reacted so much and threw yourself down..."
Wen Xueru patiently explained that she was in a good mood today and would not get angry because of a trivial matter.
