Chapter 223: Missed

Thank you for the 3,000 starting coins and the monthly pass for the "Girl of the Month" reward, thank you!

β€”β€”β€”β€” this is the dividing line of gratitudeβ€”β€”β€”β€”

There were eight people standing opposite Ruoxue, all about thirty years old, wearing clothes made of Hangzhou silk, they were the stewards of Cuibao Zhai, they were the people who could bargain with the guests, and they were also the salesmen here.

Behind them were slightly inferior men, more than twenty people, ranging in age from fifteen or sixteen to twenty, who were in charge of ushering in the tea and pouring water.

Behind them stood men and women, old and young, and a dozen children, carvers and apprentices.

At the end were two large spoons from the kitchen, and six or seven helpers.

Wang Shichang walked in front of everyone, took the lead in picking up his clothes and knelt down, and said: "The villain asks for peace for the owner, and for the third lady!" ”

Everyone immediately knelt down and kowtowed, shouting "Greetings to the owner", for fear that Ruoxue would not hear it, and shouted louder than the other.

"Everyone, please get up!"

Ruoxue waited for their words to fall before she spoke in a hurry, her voice was crisp and tactful like a yellow bird, reaching everyone's ears.

Everyone stood up one after another, and turned their hopeful eyes to Ruoxue, on the steps, in the light, Ruoxue's body was shrouded in a faint halo, making her look like the fairy out of the dust, beautiful and incomprehensible.

Ruohong stood next to Ruoxue and also got a lot of light, and was looked at by dozens of people with adoring eyes, although the person who admired it was not her, but her heart was still beautiful.

Ruoxue watched them all get up, and said that since she took over the family business, she came out to check a few shops for the first time, and it was the first time she came here to see them, "Everyone has been working for the Mei family for many years, and you have worked hard!" She said.

"No hard work, no hard work!"

"It's all our duty, and it should be."

"The owner is in love!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

All kinds of words sounded in all directions, with an embarrassed tone.

The shopkeeper walked up the stairs and said in a timely manner: "The proprietor will reward everyone with five taels of silver, and you will go to me to get it later." ”

Everyone sounded again with a tsunami-like voice, and "Thank you for the owner's reward" rang out one after another.

Ruoxue asked the names of the previous people, and named the carver here to speak closely, and asked the family of the shopkeeper to come and sit down to say some common words.

At half past o'clock, Fang and Ruohong washed up and fell asleep.

It began to rain in the middle of the night, and it did not stop until dawn.

It's November now, a winter rain and a cold, wearing thick clothes, and still feeling bitterly cold.

When she got up in the morning, Ruoxue and Ruohong washed and dressed up, and ate the breakfast prepared by the king's shopkeeper.

In the afternoon, the rain was a little lighter, and Ruohong proposed to go out for a walk, and Ruoxue joked that the rain couldn't stop her playful heart.

Ruohong pouted and said, "People just want to see the scenery in Yangzhou City!" Let's just say that I have a playful heart, and I don't ......."

As he spoke, he went up and pounced on Ruoxue, and his hand was still dishonest to squeak her itchy flesh.

"Hahahaha, okay, okay, I'm wrong, okay? Let's go out and have fun. Ruoxue smiled and dodged Ruohong's hand, while instructing Lianxin Dantang to find out the clogs she wore on a rainy day.

After a short time, Lianxin and Dan Tang took out the clogs and waited for Ruoxue Ruohong to put them on.

Ruohong didn't need them to serve, and asked Dan Tang to wear her own clogs, and she squatted there to wear her pairs.

At this time, the clogs were not like the flip-flops of later generations, but had several ropes on the clogs, which could be tied to the feet or shoe.

Ruohong put on the clogs and walked for a while, feeling if the tie was loose, she turned to look at Ruoxue, the clogs made a clattering sound when she stepped on the ground, and the arc thrown out of the skirt was so beautiful.

When Ruoxue saw her joyful appearance, she couldn't help but want to laugh and said, "Put on the cloak." ”

"Oh!"

A few of them got dressed, and after saying a word to the shopkeeper Wang, they came out of Cuibao Zhai.

Even though it was raining, the streets were still full of people.

"Where to go?"

Ruoxue, Ruohong and Lianxin Dan Gongyue walked on the streets of Yangzhou City with an oil-paper umbrella each.

"Let's just walk down the street."

Ruohong doesn't want to go to those shops anymore, she has seen too many shops like Cui Bao Zhai, so she doesn't have the mood to enter when she sees the shops, she just wants to see the houses and bridges on the street, and the men, women and children are busy with traffic.

The shopkeeper asked the two men to drive a carriage and follow them from a distance, so that they could get in the carriage and rest when they were tired.

Qiu Lin and the four guards, dressed in robes and hats on their heads, also followed them.

Walking along the street towards the city, there were two small bridges on the way, and Ruohong stopped to look at it for a while.

Now it is not like the drizzle and wind of spring, such a rainy day, it is the winter of November, although it is drizzle, but it is cold and windy, and I feel like I want to shiver after standing for a while.

Turning an alley, two people walked by with an umbrella head-on, it was Mi Pearl and Qu Jin'er.

Today, when it rained, they didn't go to the street to perform, so they hid in the house to hide from the cold outside, and their clothes were thin, and it was really difficult to resist the biting cold in such weather.

In the afternoon, when the rain was a little lighter, Mi Pearl decided to go to the clothes store in the city to buy two winter clothes for herself and Qu Jin'er to keep out the cold.

Qu Jin'er is a child, and she readily agreed to pay for it, but she only promised to buy a winter coat, and it was not good to have more.

The two men borrowed umbrellas and clogs from the monks in the temple and entered the city.

They went to several shops selling clothes, but they didn't see any clothes made of coarse cloth, so they went to the east side of the city to find them.

Finally, after walking through three more shops, I found a shop that sold coarse cloth winter clothes, but there was no suitable one for Qu Jin'er to wear, although Qu Jin'er was eight years old, she was small and exquisite, looking at the height of a five- or six-year-old child.

The people in the shop saw that they were pitiful, so they told them to wait, let them take a winter coat to the back, and let them change the winter coat to a small size.

Mi Pearl and Qu Jin'er sat in the shop and waited for more than half an hour before the guy took out the changed clothes.

They were led into a room, where they changed their winter clothes, came out and paid the money, and carried the changed clothes into the drizzle.

Besides, Ruoxue and the others walked on the street for a long time, and when they were tired, they got into the carriage behind.

Ruohong felt the hard work of shopping again, and took off her shoes when she got into the carriage, and asked Dan Tang to rub her sore feet for her.

"It's really Miss's life! I can't bear the bitterness at all. Ruoxue said jokingly.

"It's all because you raised me that I'm like this." Ruohong retorted.

Ruoxue smiled: "Do you blame me?" ”

"It's your fault!"

Turning her head, she saw Gong Yue looking outside with the curtain of the car, and Ruohong asked her what she was looking at.

"I think I saw a pearl just now." She said.

"No, it won't! Are you mistaken? ”

"It feels like it."

Gong Yue turned around and said to Ruoxue, "I'll go and see, you guys go back first." ”

didn't wait for Ruoxue to speak, took the umbrella and jumped out of the car.

Look down the road you just walked and see the woman holding the umbrella, Gong Yue will open the person's umbrella and see that it is not a rice pearl.
