Ji Xiang grabbed the broken hair that fell in front of his forehead, and the jade crown was high, and he was naughty. The shopkeeper also wanted to recomb it for her, but she was afraid of trouble, so she let it fall apart like this.

Pick a smoky threaded narrow-sleeved robe on the shelf, with a bat-shaped buckle at the neckline, she didn't tie it, and loosened a corner, which looked different: flowing.

"Miss Ji, you are so handsome, you are a little better looking than Lang Jun on the street." Ji Xiang ate well, but he grew taller, and the two taels of meat on his chest did not grow at all.

Ye Nuan's fingertips touched and clapped his hands. Ye Su also covered the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief and blushed his cheeks.

The shopkeeper is a woman, the top is vermilion, the edge is embroidered lace with a hundred birds and phoenixes, but the next reward is goose yellow, and there is a golden laurel tree on the side of the jade rabbit pounding medicine. Wearing a knee-length gown, she held a fan in her hand, and Ye Nuan called her Yin Niangzi.

Yin Niangzi is coiled with a double bun, decorated with jade plums, butterflies and snow willows are full of heads, and she wears green gardenia sachets, pearls hang down, and smell the fragrance of plum blossoms.

Her face was like a silver platter, her eyebrows were bent down, and when she smiled, the pears appeared on both sides. "Girl, how do you look? If you like to pick a few more pieces and go back to change them, warm sister, the slave family has entered a batch of new clothes, look at you haven't come for a long time, and you have left a few pieces, so it's better to come and see each other. ”

Su Su looked at Ye Nuan, her sister was not ashamed, and both pairs of eyes were about to fall on Ji Xiang's body. Secretly pulled her sleeve, the girl came back to her senses, Zhu Cui rang, and asked Yin Niangzi what to say.

Yuhuai also changed out of it at this time, and she chose a set of long cloth robes. With a little Taoist combing on his head, his gray little face suddenly became energetic, and he really couldn't see that Yuhuai was a woman for a while.

"Little ...... Sister, do I really want to dress like this? Yuhuai pulled his robe, his palms sweating.

Ji Xiang went up and pinched her little face, and narcissistically hooked Yuhuai's chin, "Be good, call me brother in the future." ”

Ye Nuan is very familiar with this person, and he also pinched Yuhuai when he went up. "Sister, don't say it. Miss Ji is like a son, and her sister is also a little delicate. Good Yuhuai, you said that your sister is really going to become a man, so how many women will have to be stunned. ”

The person who was praised felt that this sentence was very familiar, and his heart fluttered. "That's not it, it's a pity that I'm destined to be something that these girls can't get."

Yin Niangzi was holding out her new clothes at this time, and she laughed with everyone when she heard this. Ye Nuan is a frequent customer of her Yin Yin ready-to-wear shop, and when she first opened, she also brought a lot of acquaintances. Mrs. Yin was grateful to her, knowing that Ye Nuan loved to buy new clothes, and every time she received more good-looking clothes, she kept a lot.

Ji Xiang also surrounded him, walking majestically, waiting to see those thin shirts and silk flowers, brocade embroidery, beautifully blinding his eyes. is also a woman, and when she heard Ye Nuan and Ye Su's excitement, she felt sad.

Alas, there is not much silver on his body, so he has to save flowers. When you have money in the future, see if my mother doesn't buy you all.

Ji Xiang, who was weak-hearted, paid for the clothes on herself and Yuhuai, so the two sets of robes and black boots and green socks, as well as the two sets inside, cost her more than fifty taels in her purse, and there was still a discount.

Unlike the miserable ones on their side, Ye Nuan and Ye Su took a fancy to four or five sets and bought them all. Their mother doesn't like to hire a tailor, and she is not good at being a girl, so the family buys ready-to-wear clothes, which also saves effort.

Hearing this, Ji Xiang really felt that the people around him were really powerful. The conditions at home were not good before, with Wang and Lin Wuyu helping to make clothes, and the cloth did not have to be expensive, compared to ready-to-wear clothes, it was really cheap.

"Miss Ji...... Oh, I should call you Ji Gongzi. "Ye Nuan left the things at Yin Niangzi, and she will let people send them back to the inn directly." What else do you have to buy, and I'll show you around? ”

"Okay."

Ji Xiang agreed, wore men's clothes, and her voice didn't even grow up unconsciously. Ye Nuan wanted to go up and hold her hand, but Ye Su was separated in the middle, whispering a lesson to her ignorant sister.

In the eyes of others, Ji Xiang's handsome man is a son, even if you know that this is a woman, what is the use. If she is seen by an acquaintance, her father and mother are afraid that she will invite her to eat a few fried pork with bamboo shoots.

Ahem. Ji Xiang suspected that Ye Su was referring to Sang and scolding Huai, but there was no evidence. She took Yuhuai to a fist away from the two sisters, she could hear the words, and the distance would not seem intimate.

Yin Yin's ready-to-wear shop sits on the 30-meter street of Nan'an County, the shops and houses are lined up one after another, scattered, protected by the river outside, and the pedestrians on the arched stone bridge come and go, shouting and selling.

Several hawkers wore square scarves and brought goods to attract customers. There are also people wearing crowns and hats, and those who wear their backs are wrapped in incense and selling, and the market is bustling and full of people.

Thirty meters Street sells spices, and there are also cloth garments of different kinds. Different from the town where Ji Xiang lives, there is no distinction between West Street and North Square, which is this huge area, which is called Nan'an Market.

Ji Xiang walked on Thirty Meters Street, from beginning to end, all of them were people who bought and sold. Jade Dragon Fang is just one street behind, while Cyclamen is crossing the bridge to the west, not far, but there are some twists and turns.

After taking a general look at the market, I have to say that Zhou Kang is really powerful. Yulongfang covers a small area, but it is a place where people from the south to the north will pass by. Next door is the largest rouge gouache shop in Nan'an County, many nobles will come here, and there is no shortage of famous ones.

After dusk, Ji Xiang also knew about the Qing: Building in Nan'an County-Gongzhu Pavilion, which sounded quite elegant at first glance, and Ji Xiang would not look twice when he passed by.

This façade is different from Diemanfang, the two doors are closed, and even the building is unpretentious.

When Ye Nuan said it, his face was disdainful.

Choosing an elegant name is not necessarily a serious place, this place will eat people.

Ji Xiang was curious and wanted to ask what it meant, but he was prevaricated, and even Ye Su was depressed and expressionless, it seems that there is a story that can be tapped in the two sisters.

After eating, Ye Nuan and Ye Su went back. They lived in the back hall, Ji Xiang had seen their aunt, she could only say that she was very fierce, she didn't dare to say a few words, and returned to the room with Yuhuai.

However, coincidentally, Ji Xiang met the couple on the way back. The man was taller than Chen Jie'an, holding the knife in his hand, not looking at others, just turning to the side and letting her go first.

Then she pushed the door open, and the woman pounced on the man. "Husband, you're hungry."

Her appearance is really not good-looking, especially when she makes such a coquettish expression, squeezing her eyebrows and making eyes will only make people feel pretended. But the man was different, his eyes were only doting, and his big hand covered the woman's right cheek and hugged her.

"Mo'er, go in first, I've already asked Xiao Er to bring something to eat." He hugged her like a child, Mo'er buried in the man's chest and drilled hard, she should not want to go in, and muttered in her mouth to go out to play.

The man had no choice but to pick her up. Mo'er hammered her little fist, very reluctantly.

After they entered, the man suddenly came out, and he saw Ji Xiang. That woman had been there since the beginning, and he didn't see disgust in the eyes of this stranger, so he kept bowing to Ji Xiang and closed the door.

"Yuhuai, let's go in too." Ji Xiang returned the salute, and after entering, Yuhuai helped the young lady pinch her shoulders.

Yuhuai's strength was neither light nor heavy, and she quickly threw away the discomfort in her heart. She had just used the Divine Doctor System, but this was also the last time she used it, and just now, the system prompted that the twenty-four hours had been completely used up.

Also at the last moment, Ji Xiang knew that Mo'er was not exotropia at all, but poisoned into the heart, causing complete necrosis in one eye. As for the scar on the brow, it is very likely that it was the cause of the poisoning in the first place. This poison is a kind of nerve poison, which is very similar to Wang Zhizhong's original poison, and it is more toxic.

This kind of detoxification method is very complicated, and Ji Xiang has never heard of many medicinal materials. What's even more difficult is that she doesn't know most of the words on it, and the divine medical system has disappeared, and it is very likely that the prescription will not continue to be stored.

Ji Xiang sighed, life is not easy.

"Miss, are you tired?" Yuhuai let go, "Do you still have to go to the Spring Bamboo Pavilion when the time comes, let's not count it, you still have Mr. Red Sleeves to do your homework today." ”

It's okay not to say this, but Ji Xiang feels a headache when he says it. Last time, I had to make up for my homework all night, I didn't know calligraphy, the pen was dipped in ink, and the more I wrote, the blacker it became, so the red sleeves couldn't stand it, saying that this word could be learned simple, but the writing must be clear, so I found a copy for her to copy.

As soon as Yuhuai mentioned this matter, Ji Xiang still had the heart to go out and wander, "Take out the copybook, I'll write more tonight." ”

"But the candles here are not lit, and it hurts the eyes. Miss, if you don't forget it at night, you will get up tomorrow when the rooster crows, and you can work hard at that time. ”

Yuhuai's proposal makes some sense, now that there are no glasses, I will suffer if I am short-sighted. But thinking about the prescription, my heart is still not steady. She asked Yuhuai to ask Xiao Er for two oil lamps, and the light was better than the dim candlestick.

Yuhuai said yes, quickly took it back, and took out a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone from the salute. The best pine ink turned into ink in the inkstone, and Ji Xiang took out the rabbit hair brush, which is known as the smallest brush, and Chen Jie'an specially found it for Ji Xiang.

"Miss, I'll turn the lamp a little side, you should be able to see it now." Yuhuai held up the candlestick and placed it sideways. Miss didn't let me take out the calligraphy, not to practice calligraphy, it should be drawing.

She was illiterate, and when she saw Ji Xiang's strokes, she did not have the heroic meaning of Lin Xujin's writing. "Miss, are you drawing something?"

The black whirring was a mass, then the infection opened, and finally the big words jumped on the paper. Ji Xiang took the pen and nodded his forehead, "Your young lady is writing prescriptions silently, don't look at me as illiterate, but the things hidden in my brain are hard to change." ”

It took about two hours and more than a dozen pieces of rice paper to be wasted, and then Ji Xiang wrote out the prescription silently. The ink hadn't dried yet, and she didn't dare to touch it with her hands, so she could only straighten up with emotion, stretch out her hands and try to pull the lazy muscles.

Yuhuai felt distressed, "Miss, I'll give you another press, seeing that you have been hanging your arms in the air for so long, your hands are about to tremble." ”

Xiao Nizi, it's a bit of a conscience. Ji Xiang stretched out his hand to let her press, but he bent down to blow out the oil lamp, and took the candlestick with one hand.

Knock knock

Outside was Xiao Er, and he brought hot water.

"Miss, hurry up and wash up." Yuhuai instructed Xiao Er to boil hot water at the end of Ji Xiang, which really disturbed Qingmeng in the middle of the night, and gave a lot of rewards. wrung out the cleaned towel, handed it to Ji Xiang to wipe his face, and then cleaned his hands with water, simple and clear lips and teeth, and today passed like this.

It can be regarded as a different place for each person, and Nan'an County and towns and villages are not the same at all. It's bustling and noisy, with flavors and specialties that you won't find anywhere else. There is no shop of Uncle Yun's predecessors, but more rouge gouache, Ji Xiang has also been there, most of those rouge colors are the same, but the quality is different, even the fragrance is tens of millions, and the subtle differences have become the decisive details.

In the future, if Yulongfang wants to enter the rouge market, it must have different special features. Patterns, creativity...... Perhaps, if this rouge gouache is subdivided into some color numbers, women will probably buy more.

After all, in her time, there was never too much lipstick.

The next day

Ji Xiang was called up by Yuhuai early, and he was about to copy the calligraphy when his cloak was scattered. I don't know how Red Sleeves bought Yuhuai to be an overseer, obviously I don't know it, so I have to pick up every one and look at it, so Ji Xiang has to write it four or five times.

At the end of the day, Ye Nuan came. She wore new clothes today, apricot yellow landscape Luo skirt, black indigo big back outside, today's sun is a little spicy, she pulled a small bun, pearl and green hairpin, only two peach hairpins, under the ears are slender earrings, small agate red bean stone swing like playing there.

"Sister Xiang'er, I waited left and right and didn't see you out of the room, and I thought you didn't wake up." She tilted her head, and suddenly saw the rice paper and pen and ink spread out on the desk, "I didn't think about it, you are practicing calligraphy." ”

She giggled a few times, not to mention, she loved to laugh like this as much as Yuhuai.

"Why are you here, Sister Susu?" Speaking of Ye Su, Ye Nuan's smile was gone, she bought a lot of clothes yesterday, and after her mother found out, she was angrily punished for several months.

Ye Su was afraid that her mother would continue to scold her, so she spoke up for her, saying that the clothes were actually what she wanted to buy. The mother's anger has not disappeared yet, so she locked people up and was grounded for five days and not allowed to go out.

Thinking of their mother's demeanor last night, holding a big spoon in her hand and tying a scarf around her waist, those eyes seemed to be about to pop out, and Ji Xiang didn't dare to speak. People are afraid of evil ghosts, which shows that such people, ghosts and gods dare not provoke.

"Don't talk about this, when I think of my sister, I can't bear it." After Ye Nuan finished speaking, he squeezed out a few tears. Ji Xiang felt that something was wrong, so she grabbed Ji Xiang's sleeve and coquettishly. "It's really boring to play without my sister now, where does Sister Xiang'er want to go, I'll accompany you."

There is an inner taste. Ji Xiang took a step back and politely refused: "I have to practice these today, and I have to go to Yulongfang in the afternoon...... It's not about buying, it's about seeing if they can hire small workers. ”

Zhou Kang said in the letter that there were not enough small workers, and when he went yesterday, the stone said that they had found two more temporary gaps. I plan to go and see today how the quality and adaptability of these employees are.

Ye Nuan saw that Ji Xiang had rejected him, and his face was a little unhappy. "Okay then, but, Sister Xiang'er, are you short of money? If you don't have any money, you can work as a junior at Cyclamen for six dollars a month, including food and lodging. ”

She also wanted to persuade people, Ji Xiang said: "Sister Ye Nuan, if you go to see Sister Susu, it should be very boring for her to be locked in the house alone." ”

"That's not necessary, my sister loves purity, which is different from me. Since I was a child, I was most afraid of being locked up by my mother, so my sister would help me. She loves me the most, and she is also the most reluctant to make me sad, don't say it, Sister Xiang'er, I made an appointment with Mrs. Yin, she asked someone to tell me today, and she brought in another batch of cloth, saying that she wanted to give me a shirt. ”

When she finished happily, the man jumped like a hare, leaving only a jumping back.

Ji Xiang closed the door, Yuhuai came over and brought over the red dates and glutinous rice balls made in the back kitchen. "Miss, it's already cold, you can eat it quickly."

There are lotus seeds in the glutinous rice balls, the fat ones look like dolls, they hide under the red dates, and the balls are like lotus leaves, covering the lotus seeds. Ji Xiang stirred it with a porcelain spoon that played with lotus leaves, and the lotus seeds surfaced. "Yuhuai, you will accompany me to the back hall of the cyclamen later, and we will go to see Ye Su."

"Okay." Yuhuai held the fan, which was bought on the road, and the young lady loved it when she saw it. When they bought it, they threw it aside, saying that they had no clothes to match. She saw that Ji Xiang's forehead was dripping with fine sweat, and she didn't know where to put the big fan, so she had to use this fan to relieve the pain for a while.

"Miss, why did you suddenly get close to Miss Ye Su. I see that Miss Ye Nuan has a very happy conversation with you, and she is also much more generous and kind. Miss Ye Su doesn't like to talk, her temperament is sullen, and Yuhuai sees that she sometimes speaks like a needle, and she will hurt people the most. What Yuhuai said, Ji Xiang actually thinks so. But just now, Ye Nuan rightfully blamed all yesterday's mistakes on Ye Su, and Ji Xiang felt that she was not someone to befriend.

She took the last bite of the dumplings, rinsed her mouth, and wiped her mouth with a handkerchief. "The more people like Ye Su are, the more they are friends. They are willing to sacrifice themselves to protect their sisters, and when we talk to Ye Nuan, she is not blindly rejecting...... By the way, do you still have the cookies that Butterfly gave me? ”

Yuhuai clapped her hands, "Miss gave Childe, even Childe has two boxes, we should have two boxes left, but they are all biscuits, Miss Caidie said, this thing must be eaten as soon as possible, so as not to waste food." ”

"Then you take a box out, and I'll give it to Ye Su later. Also, the others are not allowed to say anything bad about Ye Nuan with Ye Su. Don't say good things, just don't know what to ask. Her sister loves her sister very much, and she wants to be a short-term protector. ”

The two changed into newly bought robes and went to the back hall. Ye Su was locked in the room, the shopkeeper was not there, and I heard Xiao Er say that people had already gone to play leaf cards with the shopkeeper.

The room in the middle is not facing well, and the scorching sun outside, the colder it is here. The tall pine and cypress blocked the door of the inner room, and when Ji Xiang walked here, he felt delicate and his body was shocked.

"Sister Ye Su?" It's really a bit of a shame to call my sister, do the math, Ye Su is only sixteen or seventeen this year. promised to marry someone, but his fiancé lost his mother, and he kept filial piety for three years, and there is still one year left this year. If she waits any longer, she is afraid that she will become the laughing stock of the Ye family.

There was a sound of footsteps in the door, Ji Xiang looked at the big lock at the door, and couldn't understand how eccentric the shopkeeper was for a long time, such a big lock was used to lock people in the room.

"Sister Ji Xiang? What are you doing here. The door didn't open, the window on the side opened, Ye Su's face was pale, and his eyebrows were furrowed three feet deep when he spoke. Ji Xiang motioned for Yuhuai to step forward and handed over the wooden box printed with Xiangcai.

Looking at the wooden box, Ye Su opened his eyes half-open, very surprised, why did Ji Xiang give me something, it was not a relative, could it be that there was something covetous. What she was most worried about was Ye Nuan, and as soon as Ji Xiang came, Nuan'er was elated and mingled with her, it was difficult for Ji Xiang to snatch her Nuan'er.

The wind and waves continued to stir up in his mind, Ye Su's eyes changed several times, and when he was about to angrily throw off the wooden box and question Ji Xiang, the latter said calmly: "I am here to thank you, thanks to the two sisters yesterday, I know a lot about the customs and customs of Nan'an County." Inside the wooden box are biscuits, which are a kind of novelty pastry, crispy and delicious. ”

Biscuits? Ye Su didn't know, but he had heard of the word Xiangcai, and it seemed to be a shop in Yun's shop. When I asked, it was. She has always wanted to go to Yun's shop, but she never did.

Thanks to Ji Xiang, Ye Su has a good impression of her. The speech is a little more gentle, and the smile is a little more. chatted for a long time through the window, and the two gradually became familiar with each other.

is different from Ye Nuan's personality, Ye Sumin is suspicious and has a strong sense of possessiveness. When it came to Ye Nuan, his eyes changed. Ye Nuan has no heart or lungs, his mind is big, and it doesn't hurt to be a little selfish.

Ji Xiang smiled and said goodbye to Ye Su.

After she left, Ye Su opened the wooden box, looked at the biscuits arranged inside, and took out a slice, which was very thin, like a pastry she had eaten a few years ago, but the thing was salty and not like this.

After taking a bite, the sweetness is not very sweet, and after chewing a few bites and swallowing it, I can't forget this taste in my mouth.

Looking at the biscuits under the box, she didn't eat them, but hid them, wanting to wait for Ye Nuan to come back and eat them.
