Chapter 538: Buying Magnolia
"Your Majesty, since we have handled this case so smoothly, otherwise let's set off as soon as possible and return to the capital!" Early the next morning, Lu Li saw An Xiabai packing her luggage, and her hurried appearance made Lu Li know what she meant at a glance.
"Queen, let's stay here for a few days, ...... I"
Lu Li didn't know what excuse to make, he didn't expect the case to be solved so quickly, and he was ready to go back before he took An Xiabai to relax.
"Could it be that the emperor still has a case to solve?" An Xiabai asked him as if he had seen Lu Li's thoughts.
"There is no case, but there are still a lot of interesting places here that we haven't gone to yet. I finally came here, but I didn't take the opportunity to have a good time. Lu Li hugged An Xiabai from behind and rested his chin on her shoulder.
"Your Majesty, then let's play for another day today and go back tomorrow, okay?" Anxia Baize knew that Lu Li was usually busy with government affairs and had no time to relax, so it was understandable that he wanted to play for a few more days. However, there are still things in the capital that An Xiabai can't rest assured. The matter came out before it was resolved, which was already very irresponsible for An Xiabai.
"Okay!" Lu Li agreed very happily, thinking that he would talk about it after today, whether he could not return to Beijing for the time being tomorrow, and then talk about it tomorrow.
"Then hurry up, let's go out for a fun after breakfast." An Xiabai reminded that he was afraid that Lu Li would play tricks again.
Lu Li and An Xiabai found a temple here, and heard from the locals that this place is very effective, and as long as they are sincere, the Bodhisattva will definitely help.
Lu Li originally wanted to go shopping, but An Xiabai wanted to go and worship. For the sake of An Xiabai, he could only accompany him.
"Bodhisattva, bless my friends and family with good health!" Anxiabai knelt before the Bodhisattva, like many pious people, with his hands folded, his eyes closed, and his heart silently made his wish.
Lu Li did not kneel down to worship the gods, but looked at An Xiabai silently on the side. He is the Son of Heaven, so naturally he does not believe in gods very much. He only pays attention to a clear conscience in life and work, no matter so much.
Looking at An Xiabai, Lu Li knew that An Xiabai was not as happy as before. So I want to make her as happy as possible, even if I am willing to pay more.
"What do you think, let's go!" Lu Li was in a daze, but he didn't know that An Xiabai had already stood beside him and watched him for a long time.
"I'm looking at how my queen is so beautiful, I'm so blessed." Lu Li took An Xiabai's hand and held it tightly in his hand, and then the two of them walked out of the temple.
"So where do we go next?" An Xiabai looked at Lu Li, as long as he was with him, he would never have to worry about staying by himself.
"There!" Looking in the direction pointed by Lu Li, there was a row of verdant trees, and the two walked over.
Taking the small stool that the entourage had brought with him, the two sat down. It was a row of willow trees, and in front of it was a crystal clear lake, and several elders sat in the lake, each holding a fishing rod in his hand.
"When the water is clear, there are no fish, don't they know this truth?" An Xiabai looked at it for a while, and felt that it was boring, so he asked.
"But it must be the one who wants to take the bait!" Lu Li smiled, seeing that An Xiabai felt bored, so he took her away.
"It's boring, but I don't seem to have experienced the silence for a long time!" An Xia Bai let out a long breath, as if relieved.
"I'm sorry I made you so tired." The hand holding An Xiabai clenched even tighter.
"If it weren't for you, there would be no such me in this world." An Xiabai didn't know how he said this, just like eating when he was hungry and sleeping sleepily.
Lu Li smiled and took her to the market.
There are a lot of clay figures in the bazaar, including Sun Wukong, Jia Baoyu, and some animals.
"Look how beautiful this sparrow is." An Xiabai took a clay figure in the shape of a bird and showed it to Lu Li.
"Girl, that's not a sparrow, it's a chicken." The boss's words made An Xiabai blush.
"Is this a sparrow?" She muttered something in a low voice, which was listened to by the attentive Lu Li.
"Boss, I bought this sparrow!" Or, he took the money from his attendant and handed it to his boss.
After the two left, An Xiabai carefully fiddled with the chick in his hand and asked Lu Li, just now the boss obviously said that this was a chick, didn't he hear it? Lu Li said that he heard it, but his wife said that it was a sparrow, and he listened to the boss and said that it was a chicken, wouldn't that make his wife very faceless. An Xia laughed at Lu Li for being too spoiled by himself, and asked Lu Li what he would do if he deceived him one day.
In fact, An Xiabai was just a sentence to make him happy, but he didn't expect Lu Li to be very serious, and said to her very seriously, An Xiabai, I believe whoever lied to me in this life, but I don't believe you lied to me!
Although he has given birth to three children to Lu Li, An Xiabai will still be moved by Lu Li's words and behaviors.
"I've been shopping all morning, and I'm really hungry." Suddenly, An Xiabai, who smelled the aroma of food, looked at Lu Li and said, his unproductive look made Lu Li smile.
"It just so happens that I'm hungry too! He is always so considerate, the so-called marriage as husband and wife, love and affection, he perfectly interprets this.
came to a restaurant that was not too small, Lu Li was afraid that it would be too public, so he asked his entourage and guards to go to the side to eat, leaving him and An Xiabai alone.
But just as their appetite was growing, the voices at the adjacent table made them indignant.
The people at the next table seemed to be forcing a girl to drink, and her mouth was not clean and she was talking about some kind of joke, bitch, if she didn't drink, she wouldn't make him feel better.
"How can this be reasonable, the two officials have just been disposed of, is there anyone who dares to be strong in such a short period of time?" As soon as the woman's matter was mentioned, An Xiabai became angry. She doesn't understand why women are born with a lower status than men, why women are born only dependent on men, and why women can't show their heads?
Although it is true that some people who sing opera do not make a living, there are also many good girls who are forced to be helpless!
An Xiabai couldn't look at it, and was about to step forward to theorize, but saw that the person who was being humiliated at the next table turned out to be a Yulan girl!
"How could it be her?" An Xiabai couldn't believe her eyes, she heard many people say that Miss Yulan is a famous character, and she shouldn't need to be inferior, how can this ......
"You're going to be warm-hearted again?" Lu Li didn't put down his chopsticks and asked her.
"This kind of thing happens many times every day, and women's status is already limited, and they will be criticized even more when they come out to sing." Lu Li's words made An Xiabai unhappy, she also knew that this kind of thing was happening every day, but if she caught up, she couldn't ignore it.
As the two were talking, they heard the Magnolia girl at the next table crying and scolding them for being beasts. Just as he was about to leave, he was pulled back again and continued to pour wine.
An Xiabai couldn't see it, so he walked over angrily, took the hand of the Yulan girl, and prepared to leave.
"Hey, who are you, the one who wants to rob me!"
The person who spoke was well-dressed and did not look ordinary.
"Who are you to force Miss Magnolia here?"
For such a person, An Xiabai would not have a good tone at all, and glared at her by the way.
"Yo, it turned out to be a friend of the Magnolia girl, so sit down and eat together!" As he spoke, the man motioned to his subordinates with his eyes, ready to take a seat with An Xia Bai.
"My wife won't be at your dinner!" Lu Li stepped forward to stop him, but the Magnolia girl also grabbed his hand.
"Please, help me!" The Magnolia girl had tears in her eyes, trembling all over, and her hands were cold. She knew Lu Li's identity, and she knew that as long as Lu Li made a move, she would definitely be able to save herself.
"Magnolia girl, who are they?" Lu Li asked, his eyes sharp.
"This is the owner of our teahouse, and the rest is to negotiate cooperation with the boss." The Magnolia girl replied tremblingly.
"Then may I ask this boss, what are you talking about cooperation and letting Miss Magnolia do?" Lu Li turned his head and asked the boss, he actually didn't want to care, but no matter today, An Xiabai would definitely not leave here. In addition to obedience, what else can he do with Anxiabai?
"Miss Magnolia is the famous corner of our teahouse, and I am expanding her customers. Now her biggest customer, Lord Liu, is already so miserable, if I don't help her expand, will I still wait for her to starve to death? ”
said that the righteousness is so good, in fact, he wants to use the beauty of the magnolia girl to help him gain benefits.
"Magnolia girl, is that so?" Knowing that it was not, Lu Li still asked.
She shook her head, her eyes full of fear, indicating that she didn't want to come at all.
"Since Miss Magnolia doesn't want to participate in this kind of occasion, then don't force her, I'm going to take her away today."
Lu Li didn't want to talk nonsense anymore, so he said bluntly. He really didn't want to deal with these people anymore, he was tired.
"Who are you, let him go, let him go. If I just let you go, wouldn't I be very shameless. Magnolia's boss said.
He crossed his arms on his chest and said to Lu Li with an arrogant attitude.
"You make a price, I bought the Magnolia girl." An Xiabai suddenly spoke up at this moment, after what happened to Lord Liu last time, An Xiabai knew that Yulan was a girl from a good family, if it wasn't forced by life, she might not be willing to engage in the singing industry. So she wanted to help this hard-working but stubborn and courageous girl.
"Money? Hehe, I'm afraid you can't afford the starting price I offered. Her boss laughed as if he had heard some joke.
"Don't worry, as long as you bid, I will never make a counteroffer." An Xiabai thought to herself, I am the queen of a country, can't I even afford your silver, it's really a joke.
"Let's put it this way, Miss Magnolia is now the most famous corner in my teahouse. There are so many people waiting to see her every day, and I don't care how much you want. One thousand taels, as long as you give it to you, I will let her go. ”
"Good!" An Xiabai agreed very happily, and immediately asked someone to bring a thousand taels of gold, and the boss of the Magnolia girl was stupid!
