Xuan Shijing, who followed behind Jin Yang, understood that women's enthusiasm for shopping was innate, whether it was a woman or a girl in that era.

After shopping in the West Market for a long time, Xuan Shijing's physical strength gradually couldn't keep up, and Li Tai had already carried a lot of large and small packages in his hands, and Long'er was only responsible for paying the bills behind Xuan Shijing and Princess Jinyang, so the physical work fell on Li Tai's body, Rao is Li Tai has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he can't bear it a little.

"Son, let's find a place to rest." Xuan Shijing looked at Li Tai's tired sweating profusely and proposed.

Princess Jinyang was fiddling with some gadgets in front of a small stall, and when she heard Xuan Shijing's words, she looked back at him, and then at Li Tai, who was already oozing sweat on her forehead, and nodded: "Well, let's find a teahouse to sit in." ”

Hearing Princess Jinyang say this, Li Tai breathed a sigh of relief, and the four of them entered a tea shop in the West Market.

"Little two, a private room on the second floor." Xuan Shijing said to Xiao Er, who was standing at the door to greet the guests.

"Okay, please." Xiao Er greeted the four of them diligently, and led the four of them up to the second floor in front.

After entering the private room, Li Tai put the things in his hand on the table and sat on the stool: "I'm tired to death." ”

Princess Jinyang saw Li Tai's appearance and said with a smile: "The fourth brother is hard. As he spoke, he picked up the teapot on the table and poured Li Tai a cup of tea.

For Jinyang's hospitality, Li Tai was very useful, picked up the teacup, drank the tea in the cup, and breathed a long sigh of relief, looking very comfortable.

asked for a pot of Bijian and a few plates of delicate small pastries, and everyone took a break in the private room of this teahouse, looking at Princess Jinyang's unfinished appearance, Li Tai's heart was in a cold sweat, he was really a little unable to walk

After Princess Jinyang drank a cup of tea, she sat down at the table and counted the loot that had been harvested.

"This is the father's, this is the mother's, the eldest brother's is here, the third brother and the ninth brother" Jin Yang counted them all with his fingers, and confirmed that they had not fallen, so he smiled with satisfaction, and Li Tai's face on the side was indeed getting darker and darker.

"Oops, I almost forgot about the fourth brother." Princess Jinyang smiled brightly, took out a package from a pile of things, and handed it to Li Tai: "Fourth brother, this is given to you by my son." ”

This girl deliberately Li Tai was indignant in her heart, but she still took the package handed over by Princess Jinyang, and she was relieved in her heart, at least this girl knew that she was working hard as a coolie today.

Xuan Shijing picked up the teacup and took two sips, counting that he hadn't drunk tea for a long time, tea was one of the few luxuries in Datang, not something that ordinary people could drink, not to mention, Xuan Shijing was not used to drinking raw tea.

After drinking two sips, Xuan Shijing couldn't drink it anymore, but he missed the tea of the future generations, even if it was a few dozen yuan a tael, it was more accustomed to drinking tea than now.

"Brother Jing, you said you were going to come here to find materials to make swings, why didn't you buy anything?" Princess Jinyang looked at Xuan Shijing curiously.

"I'm not looking for materials, I'm looking for a craftsman." Xuan Shijing said, when he was a child in Chang'an, he met a craftsman by chance, whether it was a carpenter or a weaver, he was very good, at that time a lot of things in the Hou Mansion were made by him, and I don't know how the craftsman is doing now, whether he can still find him, this time out, he plans to get two things for Jinyang, one is a swing chair, the other is a hanging basket chair, and it is very comfortable to sit in the warm pavilion.

When a few people came out, it was already past noon, and after shopping for so long, they rested in the teahouse, and the time was not early, after drinking a pot of tea, Li Tai lifted those big bags and small bags again, and Jin Yang was still pulling Xuan Shijing to walk in front.

Follow Xuan Shijing in the various alleys of the West Market, the whole West Market is only more than 300 meters long, boxy is divided into nine areas, each shop is four to ten meters wide, and the depth is more than three meters, all of which are adjacent to the street, and after walking for a while, Xuan Shijing found the door number in his memory.

This is the opinion of the old shop, now most of the markets in Chang'an City have been renovated, especially in the east and west two cities, there are many businessmen, originally opened a shop in the east and west cities, these years have made a lot of money, naturally to decorate the façade of their own shop, but Xuan Shijing came to this shop, it is still the same as ten years ago, and the wood paint on the door is faintly falling off.

Walking into the shop, the storefront of the shop is considered to be big in the West Market, the store is full of large and small woods, leaning against the wall, the right hand side of the door is the counter, but there is no one behind the counter, looking inside, only a young man is taking care of the scattered wood inside, and there are some finished products that have been done on one side of the store.

"This little brother, is Shopkeeper Li here?" Hyun Se-kyung walked into the store and asked.

When the young man heard the movement, he turned around and saw that there were customers coming to the store, so he quickly stood up: "My father has only asked about the things in the store since last year, but you are my father's friends?" The young man looked at a few people, none of whom were of a big grade, but he knew that his father had never seen him before, so he asked.

"We were originally from the Xuanwei Hou Mansion, and we have been doing things here with Uncle Li before." Xuan Shijing said.

"It turned out to be a distinguished guest from the Hou Mansion, please come inside." As soon as the young man heard that it was from the Hou Mansion, his enthusiasm instantly rose: "I heard my father mention it, so let's do it, a few of you will come back tomorrow, I will invite my father to the store tomorrow, how about it?" ”

Xuan Shijing smiled: "Don't be so troublesome, the little brother is Uncle Li's son, presumably the craftsmanship and Uncle Li are also in the same vein, I came here to make two things, do you have paper and pen?" ”

"Yes, please come here." The young man invited Xuan Shijing to the counter and took a paper and pen to Xuan Shijing.

The new paper is very good, Xuan Shijing is slightly proud in his heart, these years, the new paper business of the Hou Mansion looks good, even in Longxi, you can use the new paper, not to mention Chang'an.

Probably drew the shape of the swing chair, roughly told the young man how to do it, the young man nodded while listening, the so-called swing chair that Xuan Shijing said is not difficult, it is the rattan one, I can't do it myself, I have to go back and ask my father.

"How many days will this take?" It's over, Xuan Shijing asked.

"Your chair is very fast, you can finish it tomorrow, paint it, and let it dry for a day, but this rattan like a bird's nest has to go back and ask my father to see if he can weave it." The young man said with some hesitation.

"Nacheng, you make this chair first, the other one is not in a hurry, let Uncle Li think about it slowly, if you get it out, send it directly to the Hou Mansion, Long'er, give the deposit to this little brother first." Xuan Shijing said.

Long'er nodded, took out a small string of copper coins from her sleeve, and gave it to the young man.

Then Xuan Shijing thought about it and instructed: "The rattan must be the strongest and thicker." ”

"But for sitting?" The young man asked curiously.

Xuan Shijing nodded: "Yes, there should be a gap at the top, and the upper edge should be stronger, this is not placed on the ground, but hung up." ”

The young man nodded as if he didn't understand, and replied, "Okay." ”

After explaining the matter, seeing that it was not too early, Xuan Shijing and the others went out and got into the carriage that stopped not far away, and sent Li Tai and Princess Jinyang back to the palace.

Ming'er Xuan Shijing also had to go to Guozijian to inquire about Gu Yuancheng.
