Chapter 422: Wooden Box
"Girl, be careful!"
Fortunately, Shen Shu and Shi Qingqian were both quick-eyed, and the two of them reached out at the same time, and one of them caught a fallen wooden box.
Shi Qingqian heard the sound of porcelain bumping from the wooden box, but fortunately, he didn't hear the sound of breaking.
"Ahh The masked woman was startled, and quickly apologized and said, "Childe and girl are not injured, right?" β
"It's okay, it's okay," Shi Qingqian smiled and shook his head.
Although this masked woman can't see her face clearly, her eyes are extraordinarily smart, she doesn't use powder, her eyes are natural apricot eyes, her eyelashes are slender and naturally upturned, and her dark pupils will always make people think she is a very beautiful person.
The eyes are the windows of the soul, Shi Qingqian did not see anything bad in her eyes, but was gentle, so she said to the woman more calmly: "This wooden box still has some weight, where is the girl going?" Let's help you move in. β
"Why are you embarrassed to trouble the two of you......" The masked woman lowered her eyes slightly, but the weight of this wooden box was indeed not light, and Shi Qingqian felt difficult to hold a small one, not to mention that she herself could hold three of them at once. After thinking for a moment, the woman raised her head and smiled slightly, "Okay, thank you girl and son, it's actually not far away, it's in Peach Blossom Building." β
Hearing her say this, Shi Qingqian had some thoughts in his heart.
It seems that this girl should be the 'shopkeeper' mentioned by Fang Cai's second brother, and the wooden box may also be in the small white bottle that Fang just took out.
Sure enough, when Shi Qingqian and Shen Shu followed the masked woman to the terrace on the second floor of the Peach Blossom Building, Shi Qingqian's guess was confirmed.
"Wan'er? You're so fast! Ay? You're there too? Shi An saw them from afar, trotted over, took the wooden box from the masked woman's hand, and then found Shi Qingqian and Shen Shu following behind.
The masked woman who was called 'Wan'er' by Shi An looked at the two people behind her and explained softly: "Ziqing, I almost bumped into this girl just now, she and Gongzi are kind-hearted, so they helped me move things." How, do you know? β
"This is my sister." Shi An said with a smile.
"So this is the little princess of Baoying in your mouth!" The masked woman was stunned for a moment, looked at Shi Qingqian in surprise, and then glanced at Shen Shu again, "Then isn't this Shen Xiaowang......
"Oops! This sister, we came out for a private visit to Weifu this time," Shi Qingqian saw this, and hurriedly stepped forward to interrupt, "Sister still calls us sons and girls, but don't reveal your identity, otherwise, it will be easy to bring some unnecessary trouble." β
The masked woman nodded as if she didn't understand. She grew up in a small realm like Tongling since she was a child, where do she know so many things, but since Shi Qingqian didn't want her to call her that, she naturally wouldn't call her that.
Seeing that a few people here were still chatting, the girls waiting on the side were already impatient, and one of them urged dissatisfiedly: "Hey, Shi Gongzi...... Do you still want to buy this plum dew cream? β
"Sell, sell, sell! Naturally, it is sold! Shi An came back to his senses and hurriedly carried the box and walked over, "Let the girls have been waiting for a long time, come and come, hurry up and take it back and use it, within ten days, I believe that the girls will become more delicate than the plum blossoms in that winter!" β
The women rushed forward, as the masked woman stood in the center and was pushed away with a look of disgust. She staggered and almost fell, but fortunately, Shi Qingqian stepped forward to help her.
Shi Qingqian always felt that although this masked woman was the shopkeeper, the group of women either turned a blind eye to her or were extremely bored. However, it was a little strange that the masked woman still bought the things she had brought.
But Shi Qingqian didn't dare to ask easily, always afraid that she would accidentally touch something sad about her, so she could ask something inconsequential to relieve the embarrassment.
"By the way, sister, my name is Shi Qingqian, this is my fiancΓ© Shen Shu, you are the 'shopkeeper' that my second brother said, right?"
When the masked woman, who was a little embarrassed, heard this, she quickly showed a smile and replied, "My name is Xi Manwan, what do you mean by 'shopkeeper'...... Actually, it's a bit exaggerated, I'm just making some plum cream cream, if it weren't for Ziqing's help for me...... Maybe you won't be able to sell a single bottle. β
"Huh? Why is that? Shi Qingqian scratched his head, "Although my second brother is eloquent, it is also because Miss Xi's plum dew cream is indeed miraculous, so it will be scrambled to buy." β
Xi Manwan smiled bitterly, and unconsciously reached out and touched his face under the veil twice, "Because I ...... If I say it alone, I don't think anyone will believe in the effect of plum cream. β
Seeing that the light in Xi Manwan's eyes dimmed, Shi Qingqian knew that she had asked something that she shouldn't ask, so she quickly waved her hand, "Oops, it's okay!" Anyway, with my second brother here, my second brother is so powerful, it's no problem to leave this kind of little thing to him! β
Sensing Shi Qingqian's delicate thoughts, Xi Manwan nodded.
"Then again...... Miss Xi, I think the way my second brother looks at you is very different! Shi Qingqian smiled evilly and poked Xi Manwan with his elbow, "Tsk...... It's the first time I've seen my second brother look like that! β
"Hmph, Shi Gongzi helped her buy things, and that was just out of pity!" As soon as Shi Qingqian's words were finished, a woman with a twisting waist came over, knocked Ji Manwan away with disdain, and said to Shi Qingqian, "Sister, don't think about it, Shi Gongzi treats everyone well, then he will like such a woman!" β
Shi Qingqian frowned, basically understood the current situation, she sneered, and said, "Wait, wait, I have to clarify before I speak, this girl, when did I become your sister?" Our historian can't come out with such a woman...... Ahem, then again, what kind of person does this girl think my brother will like? Is it you? β
The woman's face was very bad, but when she heard Shi Qingqian ask, she couldn't help but smile and straightened up proudly, "Ahem...... Anyway, Shen Gongzi won't like such an ugly woman, what ...... my words?"
"Are you worthy!?" Shi Qingqian scolded sharply, directly interrupting the woman's words, "Trouble girl, let's take a look at yourself before saying that others are ugly, not to mention that your fat powder is as thick as the paste on the wall, even such a thick paste can't cover your dirty heart!" It's ridiculous...... Why do you still have the face to say that others are ugly? β
