Chapter 278: The Mutual Market Opens

Li Yan'er wants to take advantage of Su Muling's absence to steal the deed of sale she signed.

Sneaking into Su Muling's room, Li Yan'er rummaged around.

I turned over the cabinet and the box, but I didn't see it.

Where can it be placed? Li Yan'er looked around, this house was dilapidated and worse than the people of her Li family. There shouldn't be anything like a dark grid.

rummaged through again, but there was still nothing, Li Yan'er was deflated and sat on the bed.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Li Feng came in from outside.

"What are you doing here?"

Li Yan'er hurriedly stood up and covered up in a panic: "I, I saw that the house was too messy, so I wanted to clean it up." ”

Li Feng glanced at the open cabinets and various boxes, and his face changed greatly.

"You're going to steal the princess's things? Come. ”

The little guy arrived almost at the same time as the voice.

"Qiu Xiang took advantage of the owner's absence and wanted to steal something. Lock her up. ”

"Yes."

The little girl picked up Li Yan'er and pulled it to the backyard.

Li Yan'er didn't leave, shouting in her mouth: "I didn't steal, you wronged me......"

It's a pity that Li Yan'er's virtue is already known to everyone, and none of the people in this courtyard are disdainful and contemptuous. Now, even if she screams, no one wants to listen. Li Yan'er was locked up, the door was locked from the outside, and she had two meals a day, but she was not hungry.

A month later, Xiao Wenxuan went to the Yamen to do business.

As soon as Ma Li Jin got out, he greeted him with a smiling face.

"Lord Wang, you're here."

Xiao Wenxuan glanced at him and didn't stop: "What are you doing here?" ”

Li Jin followed in small steps.

"Lord Wang, does the lower official want to ask the prince how is the little girl Yan'er now?"

"Yan'er?"

Xiao Wenxuan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly had an epiphany: "Oh, Qiu Xiang? It should be okay. ”

Li Jin is stunned, Qiu Xiang?

"Lord Wang, Yan'er has been pampered since she was a child, she has never suffered hardships, she has never served anyone, if she does something bad, I hope the prince will take care of it."

Xiao Wenxuan stopped and looked at him: "Master Li doesn't have to worry, she stays at home and only eats and sleeps, and doesn't have to serve people." ”

Li Jin was pleasantly surprised: "What?" The prince accepted her as a side concubine? ”

Xiao Wenxuan sneered: "You think too much." ”

After speaking, he ignored him and strode into the back hall of dealing with political affairs.

Li Jin couldn't figure it out if he stayed where he was. What is the situation when you don't have to work to serve people and confiscate your house?

Li Jin hurriedly followed again, and pleaded cautiously: "Lord Wang, Yan'er has been away from home for more than a month. The lower official wants to go to the house to visit, I don't know if the prince can do it? ”

Xiao Wenxuan didn't reply: "Yes." ”

Li Jin's heart was full of joy and hurriedly thanked him.

Li Yan'er wanted to be the woman next to Prince Ning, and Li Jin had no objection.

Prince Ning is a person who has been the crown prince, and now it seems that it is difficult to be assigned to this bitter place, but who knows if the emperor's whim will pass the throne to him again with a holy decree.

At that time, the people around Prince Ning will follow the chicken dog to heaven.

Li Yan'er followed Prince Ning, although she couldn't be a queen, how could she make a princess.

With this belief, Li Jin did not prevent Li Yan'er from going to Prince Ning's mansion to be a slave and a maid. But Mrs. Li cried all day long and wiped her tears, blaming him for conniving at his daughter's nonsense.

Today is really Mrs. Li's trouble, and he has to be cheeky to beg Prince Ning to see his daughter.

With Prince Ning's permission, Li Jin hurriedly jumped into the carriage and went straight to Xiao Wenxuan's humble house.

Knocking on the door to reveal his identity and explain his intentions, Li Feng let him into his room.

In the middle of the night, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the door, and Li Yan'er rushed in and threw herself into Li Jin's arms and began to cry bitterly.

Li Jin wanted to open his mouth to ask about Li Yan'er's current situation, but when he looked up, he saw Li Feng standing at the door, like a god.

"Strongman, can you let us be alone for a while?"

Li Feng was expressionless and bent slightly: "Adults are at their own convenience." With that, he turned around and went out.

Li Jin saw Li Yan'er crying sadly, and quickly helped him up: "Yan'er, are they not good to you?" Hit you and scolded you? ”

As he spoke, his eyes nervously surveyed her up and down.

Li Yan'er wiped her tears and shook her head with sobs.

"They won't give you food? Asked you to do rough work? ”

Li Yan'er shook her head again.

If you don't beat, don't scold, don't do rough work, what's the point of crying?

Li Jin was anxious: "What's wrong?" Are you talking? ”

Li Yan'er saw that Li Jin was anxious, so she got up and stood aside, sobbing aggrievedly:

"Father, the day after I came here, the prince left with the princess. I didn't have a chance to ...... with the prince at all Woohoo......"

Li Yan'er began to cry again. Heyuan Book Bar

Li Jin was puzzled: "The prince is gone?" No, I saw him in the yamen just now. ”

"But, the prince and the princess haven't come back for a month. I asked the guards, and they all said they didn't know where they went. Father, I want to go home. Take me away......"

Li Yan'er pulled Li Jin's sleeve and cried and made trouble.

Li Jin was sweating from crying by her.

"Yan'er, do you know that this palace can enter and leave as much as you want? If you wait patiently, Prince Ning's Mansion will be built soon. At that time, you don't have to live in this shabby house, and you will have the opportunity to get along with the prince. ”

Li Jin's words brought a glimmer of hope to Li Yan'er.

That's right, Prince Ning's Mansion is under construction in full swing, and when the palace is repaired, where else can the prince go?

Li Jin comforted a few more words before leaving.

Xiao Wenxuan returned to his new home, and Li Feng came over to learn what Li Jin's father and daughter said from Xiao Wenxuan.

Xiao Wenxuan snorted sarcastically: "His abacus is loud enough, I'm afraid it will disappoint him." ”

In the blink of an eye, Kuwu Island has entered a harsh winter.

On the sixth day of the new year, the nurse opened the market.

Xiao Wenxuan crept up early in the morning and asked someone to send water to the study to freshen up, for fear of affecting Su Muling's sleep.

didn't eat, Xiao Wenxuan took Wuying out. Outside is a cold winter dripping with ice, and inside the house is a boiling hot kang. The princess fell asleep, and the girls and mothers-in-law in the courtyard relaxed their steps.

When Su Muling woke up, the sun had already risen, and Xichun, who was waiting in the outhouse, hurriedly stepped forward to serve.

"Where's the prince?" Su Muling asked.

"The prince went out early in the morning, and I heard that the mutual market is open today. A lot of people went to see the excitement. ”

Is the market open? Su Muling's eyes turned and he smiled at Xichun: "Let's go and see it too, right?" ”

"No, the prince has confessed. Nowadays, the road is so big that you won't be allowed to go out. ”

"Let's just keep him from knowing." Su Muling got up.

Xichun poured water for her to wash.

"You're making a fool of yourself. The prince doesn't know, but we know. Miss has been more than five months now, in case something goes wrong, how can we explain to the prince and the master. No way. Xichun flatly refused.

Su Muling smiled, there is nothing in this world that she wants to do and can't do.

It's nearly noon. The sun was shining warmly, and a carriage drove out of Su Muling's new house. On the frame sat a pomegranate dressed as a man.

Along the way, there were people going to the eastern part of the city.

Everyone's steps are brisk. Holding large bags and small bags in their hands, some are on the way to the mutual market, and some are on the way home. All of them had happy smiles on their faces.

Although Kuwu Island is bitter, it also has specialties that are not found elsewhere.

Luolai Country and Kuwu Island face each other across the sea, and everyone communicates with each other, bringing unprecedented benefits and vitality to the people.

Su Muling opened the curtain, and Su Muling held the hand stove in his hand and watched with a pair of big eyes.

After walking for more than half an hour, they came to Taiyi Street, which was the closest to the mutual market.

Su Muling stopped the carriage, and she wanted to get out of the carriage and take a walk.

Xichun and Pomegranate carefully helped her out of the car.

Su Muling stood down next to the carriage and raised his head, which suddenly blinded everyone's eyes.

Su Muling went out this time, wearing a moon-white long jacket, a pair of dark red sheepskin boots, and a fiery red fox fur on his body. With her little snow-white face and jet-black hair, a pair of ruby earrings jumped playfully with her movements.

"I heard that the brocade in Luolai Country is good, let's buy some to make a few clothes for the prince."

King Ning's Mansion is about to be completed, and Su Muling wants to take off all the cotton clothes on Xiao Wenxuan's body and restore his noble attire.

"And Miss, Miss's month is getting bigger and bigger, and the clothes have to be remade."

Xichun's heart is full of young ladies.

The master and servant entered the courtyard of the mutual market as they spoke. As soon as he came in, not to mention pomegranate and cherished spring, even Su Muling was dazzled by everything in front of him. Everywhere there is a dazzling array of goods, and there are Rowlai people dressed in exotic costumes and speaking exotic Chinese.

Satin fabrics, gold and silver porcelain, pen, ink, paper, inkstones, tables, chairs, benches, spices and spices are all available.

The people of the two countries did not understand the language, so they gave full play to their most primitive skills and gestured with their hands.

As soon as Su Muling appeared, there was an immediate exclamation, and then people began to trade and buy their own business.

Su Muling didn't let Xichun reveal his identity, and still walked around with the same curiosity as the people. It didn't take long for the girl's hands to be full of exotic goods.

"Miss, there are really a lot of good things in this Luolai country, let's call more people to come tomorrow and buy more back."

Xichun had several pieces of fabric under the dirty money, and carried all kinds of embroidery threads in his hands, and followed Su Muling back with unfinished intentions. Pomegranate was holding bottles and cans of this weight in his arms, with cloth under his armpits, and a bag of small toys in his hands, so excited that his eyebrows were about to fly.

"Miss, let's come back tomorrow. The slave saw that the woolen carpet was very practical, and it was spread in the lady's bedroom, so that even if she was barefoot, she was not afraid of the cold. ”

"No, I heard that the Luolai people are good at making incense, next time we will buy some and try it back, and this silk is even cheaper than the capital, next time we will buy more......"

"Ah......h

A few people were talking and laughing and going back. Su Muling, who was at the front, suddenly slipped under his feet, and the whole person fell backwards......

"Miss?"

"Miss?"

Pomegranate and Xichun were stunned for a few moments, threw down the things in their hands and ran forward. However, the snow on the road is slippery, and there is no washing speed at all.

Just when Su Muling was about to fall to the ground, a figure flashed and firmly supported Su Muling from behind.

"Princess, are you alright?"

Su Muling patted his chest, shocked.

looked at the person who was holding her again - it was Li Hongwen, the brother of Li Yan'er who was left alone in the old house by her and kept the empty room alone!
