Chapter 2: The Deceased

A sudden rainstorm, the peony in front of the window is too delicate.

Rao Di fell asleep and woke up to learn that Shen Zhu had left in the rain in the middle of the night.

She looked at the red and purple bruises on her body and said with a smile: "Shen Zhu, you are really a thin lover!" ”

Lazily leaning in front of the window for a morning, she looked at the endless traffic and vendors downstairs, "This Jinling City is really lively!" ”

A cold wind blew, and the maid named Mountain Ghost hurriedly closed the window and said to Rao: "The girl has been sitting all morning, I see that you are tired, go and rest!" ”

Rao Di stopped her from closing the window, "The mountain rain is coming, the city is full of wind and rain, this good scene, but you don't let me see it!" ”

The mountain ghost snorted, "What's so nice?" I'm waiting to see the girl stir things up and make a big fuss. ”

Rao Tu pointed to a cloth shop on the street under the window and said, "Look at that person." ”

The mountain ghost looked at it, and the little girl wrinkled her eyebrows slightly, "Is it Pei Qingwei's slut?" ”

Rao Di said lightly: "She is now Mrs. Shen, let's go, go and see the old man." ”

The master and servant walked into the cloth village and saw Pei Qingwei holding a makeup satin and looking at it carefully.

When the shopkeeper saw Rao Di walk in, he hurriedly stepped forward and greeted him with a smile: "The soft smoke that the girl asked for a few days ago has been prepared, waiting for you!" ”

Rao Tu smiled: "Thank you, I'm tired of the shopkeeper." ”

The shopkeeper smiled: "The girl commanded, naturally I don't dare to slack off, you wait, this will be for you." ”

Pei Qingwei was left to dry, she glanced at Rao Di lightly, and Rao Tu replied with a gentle smile.

"Madame's bearing is noble, the makeup satin in your hand really matches your charm." Rao Tu smiled.

The corners of Pei Qingwei's mouth pulled out a faint smile, "You are the woman from the Goolan Courtyard near here, right?" ”

Rao Tuying gave a salute, "Exactly, the little woman is abrupt." ”

"It doesn't matter." A hint of mockery flashed in Pei Qingwei's eyes, and she turned her head to continue to look at the cloth and said no more.

The shopkeeper came with a delicate gold-painted long box, and said to Rao Tu with a smile: "Girl, please inspect the goods." ”

Rao Di opened the lid of the box, and there were two colors of Luo material stacked inside, one pine blue, and one autumn fragrance. She stretched out her hand and stroked it, "That's right, it's as thin as a light feather, as warm as a beautiful jade, it's a soft smoke." ”

The girl on the side asked, "Why is it called Soft Yanluo?" ”

Rao said: "This material can be made into a gauze tent hanging bed, looking at it from a distance like a cloud of light smoke, sleeping in it is like being in a cloud of soft smoke, so it is called soft smoke." ”

Pei Qingwei walked over and looked at the soft smoke in the box, she snorted, "Shopkeeper, you are so bold!" If you don't show me such a good thing, do you think I can't afford it? ”

The shopkeeper hurriedly said: "Mrs. Shen is serious, soft smoke is rare, this girl was booked first." If Mrs. is interested, you can write it down, and when you get the goods next time, you will definitely send it to the house. ”

"Next time? How long do you have to wait? ”

"Say less...... It will take three months. ”

"Presumptuous, it's already winter in three months, how can you still use such light and thin materials?"

"This ......"

Pei Qingwei looked at Rao Tu and said, "I'm a character who can't wait. Why don't I pay double the price, and you resell it to me. ”

She smiled and said nothing.

Pei Qingwei raised her eyebrows and said, "What, you don't want to?" The woman in the tick bar won't love money, right? ”

Rao Di hurriedly said: "Don't dare, as Madame said, the little woman has fallen into the dust, and she is a person who sees money." Since the lady likes it, what does it matter if she is an adult? ”

Pei Qingwei snorted coldly, "It's quite sensible, how much is it?" ”

"The little woman once paid the shopkeeper a hundred taels."

Pei Qingwei motioned to the maid next to her, the little maid took out a purse, Pei Qingwei said: "Here are three hundred lines of silver, and the remaining one hundred taels are considered a reward." ”

The maid sent the purse to Rao Tu, but Rao Tu didn't take it.

Pei Qingwei said: "What? You're not going to change your mind, are you? ”

Rao Di was silent, and the shopkeeper on one side trembled and said, "Go back...... Back to Mrs. Shen, what this girl paid me was...... One hundred taels of gold ......"

Pei Qingwei's face changed slightly when she heard this: "What did you say?" ”

"It's a hundred taels of gold, and when converted into silver, it's three thousand one hundred and six taels." The mountain ghost reminded from the side.

Pei Qingwei paused, unable to hide her surprise: "How can such a piece of cloth be worth three thousand taels?" ”

The shopkeeper explained in horror as if he had eaten Coptis chinensis: "Mrs. doesn't know, it took three months for the Jiangnan Weaving Bureau to get two ......."

Pei Qingwei staggered a step, staring at the soft smoke in the box in disbelief, and it was neither advance nor retreat for a while.

Rao Di said apologetically: "Mrs. Shen? Are you still planning to do this cloth? ”

Pei Qingwei came back to her senses, she clenched the hand hidden in her sleeve, gritted her teeth and said, "Naturally, I want to!" It's just that Mrs. Ben didn't bring so much money, you can go with me to the Huangmen Shen Mansion to get it. ”

"It turned out to be Lord Shen's wife! Disrespectful. Rao Di said solemnly, "Since it is Mrs. Shen, how can the little woman go to the house to get it, Mrs. has time, send someone to send the silver ticket to the opposite Yuhe Building, the shopkeeper is a witness, the little woman naturally believes Mrs. ”

Pei Qingwei nodded and said, "Don't worry, you will naturally send it." ”

"That being the case, the little woman will take her leave."

Rao Tu and the mountain ghost walked out of the cloth village, and the mountain ghost took a sip and muttered, "What a thing! Isn't he also a slut who climbed out of the green building! ”

"Mountain ghost, be careful."

The mountain ghost said: "Girl, you don't know, that slut has been staring at your neck, her face is full of disdain, she thinks she is a good thing?" ”

"Oh?" Rao reached out and stroked the white neck, where there were some red and purple traces scattered.

The mountain ghost was indignant: "She didn't know that it was her good friend Shen Zhu's sin!" ”
