Chapter 293: Rag Doll
Chinese Yuzhou is a relatively important town in this region, the market is very prosperous, the hawkers sell everything, it can be said that the goods are abundant, and the dazzling array is dazzling. (Fengwu Literature Network)
"Ahh Seeing such a bustling bazaar, my mood suddenly improved. As soon as she entered the market, Yun Xiao came to her senses, and her eyes couldn't see it.
Xuanyuan Rui hooked his lips dotingly, "You like to go to the market so much? β
"Of course I do." Originally, she was a master who liked to go shopping, and when she was in her hometown, she often took five or six nurses and a few maids to the market to wander around.
Yun Xiao's eyes shone as she walked, "Xiaowan, how long has it been since I visited the market?" β
Xiao Wan blinked and counted the days, "Oh, it's been about two years, right?" "I haven't been to the market since I left home.
"No, I remember the first time I came to Qingzhuling, Baozhu took me to Yuzhou once."
Speaking of the jewel, Xuanyuan Rui had a trace of concern in his heart, he planned to give up the throne to the third brother, and Yunxiao went to meet the jewel, but he never thought that Xiaoran's dream would not be realized in this life.
"Sister Baozhu doesn't know how well she is doing, so it's better to send someone to pass them back. If you are close, you can take care of it more. β
"Don't worry, with Li Lin and the child, the scars on his face have been removed, Baozhu is very happy, and he must have a good life." Yun Xiao said and pulled him up and walked to a platform, "Haoran, let's start from this side, don't go too fast." β
"Hmm." Xuanyuan Rui nodded, and followed behind her step by step, Xiao Yi and the guards walked around in civilian clothes to protect secretly.
As soon as he walked out of the bazaar, Xiao Yi noticed that there were a few more tails behind him, and hurriedly approached and whispered.
"Third master, they're coming."
Xuanyuan Rui's heart was full of anger, and he turned his head suddenly, Wei Changyan grinned awkwardly on the other side, and hurriedly turned around and walked away, Chen Guodong turned around and rushed to the side of the stall to pretend to ask the price, and several ministers also lowered their heads and pretended to shop.
Xuanyuan Rui glared at them unhappily, and saw Yun Xiao and Xiao Wan walking to the stall in front of them, striding to follow and continue to go crazy.
"Wow, so many ragdolls!" Yun Xiao was attracted by a rag doll stall, and there were many rag dolls hanging on the bamboo poles horizontally in the stall, and some were also placed on the case, most of which were female rag dolls.
Yun Xiao took a fancy to a male cloth baby made of blue velvet cloth at a glance, and couldn't put it down when she held it in her hand, "This little boy is so cute." β
"Miss, what's so nice about a male doll, a rag doll or a female doll is beautiful, you see how beautiful this female doll is, silk headband, floral cloth skirt, lips are a little cherry red, and the little face is flushed." Xiaowan likes female dolls, and rag dolls are of course beautiful and cute female dolls.
Yun Xiao didn't seem to hear her compliment, "Boss, how much is this male Buwa?" β
Seeing that Yunxiao was dressed luxuriously, the stall owner opened his mouth to ask for a high price, "Two taels of silver." β
"Xiaowan, I want it."
"Miss......" Xiaowan pouted, Miss has always been shrewd, and she has never been fooled when she buys things in the market, what's wrong today, she didn't even return before the price, hum! The young lady didn't return the price, she went back and forth, "Two taels of silver?" I think it's worth ten cents. β
Yun Xiao, there was a pool of mist in her eyes, if the child she was pregnant with was still alive, she was more than a year old, and she was afraid that she would be much bigger than this doll.
"Xiaowan, don't talk." Xuanyuan Rui saw that Yun Xiao was holding the rag doll and didn't let go, her eyes seemed to be red, and she knew that she remembered the sad thing again, so she hurriedly handed over a silver ingot, "No need to give change, what this lady likes is a baby." β
"Third Master." Xiao Wan raised her eyes in surprise and glanced at the emperor, muttering with reluctance, how can a rag doll be worth a piece of silver?
"Shut up." Xuanyuan Rui was low, majestic and quite intimidating, so frightened that Xiao Wan immediately held back her chatter, "Uh......"
The stall owner took the silver, his eyes shining, "Thank you, thank you, and I wish you young couple an early birth to a precious son." β
Xuanyuan Rui didn't talk to the stall owner, and stared at the person next to him expressionlessly.
Xiao Wan only saw the clue at this time, and she was anxious to stop the stall owner's mouth with a rag doll, and the damn shopkeeper blessed Miss with an early birth of a precious son, isn't this the pain of Miss?
Yun Xiao was indifferent to the stall owner's courteous blessings, and her attention fell on the rag doll, which was about a foot away, and it was really comfortable to hold in her arms.
Stretching out her thin fingers, touching the doll's hair lovingly, caressing the doll's round face, moving the chubby little arms and legs, such a cute doll, how nice it would be if it were her child!
Xuanyuan Rui stared at Yun Xiao holding the doll stupidly, and a touch of guilt floated in his heart, if he didn't be the emperor and took her away early, their children would not be killed, and Yun Xiao would not be infertile from now on and have lifelong regrets.
"Xiao'er!" He whispered.
Yun Xiao came back to her senses and looked up at Xuanyuan Rui, a smile floating on the corner of her mouth, "Okay?" β
"It's cute."
Yun Xiao's cheeks flushed slightly, "Don't call me naΓ―ve, I really like this rag doll." "I haven't given birth to a child, but I am walking with a child all over the street, Yunxiao is a little shy, but she is reluctant to let go.
Xuanyuan Ruiyang chuckled, "If you like it, take it home." β
"It's just that you're not taboo about being a fake doll." Yun Xiao curled the corners of her lips, looked at him and smiled uncomfortably, holding the rag doll and continuing to walk forward with him.
At this time, a large group of people surrounded by a large group of people blocked the smooth market road, and a sad voice came from the crowd.
"Good Samaritans passing by, have pity on me, beg the good Samaritan for a coffin money, the little woman sold herself to bury her father, and from then on she became a cow and a horse to serve her master."
"Such a miserable begging to sell herself to bury her father, or a woman, go in and have a look?" Yun Xiao's heart softened when she heard this, and she pulled Xuanyuan Rui to enter the crowd to see the excitement, Xuanyuan Rui threw a look to the side, and the surrounding guards hurriedly squeezed into the crowd, secretly splitting a gap, and Xuanyuan Rui and Yun Xiao and their party successfully entered the circle.
"The little woman's family is poor, and her father depends on each other, her father has been ill for many years, and unfortunately died last night, the little woman has no money to bury her father, please buy me with a good samaritan, as long as a coffin money buries her father, the little woman is willing to be a slave for the rest of her life, a cow and a horse, woo ......" A thin little girl with a thatch on her head, kneeling on the ground and prostrating and begging.
"Good Samaritans passing by, pity and pity......"
"Xiaowan, give her ten taels of silver." Yun Xiao made her say that she was sad, and she couldn't help but feel compassion.
"Yes." Xiao Wan stepped forward and sent a piece of silver to the woman and said, "My wife has a charitable heart, and I will give you ten taels of silver to bury your father, so go home for the funeral." β
"Thank you, Madame, Bodhisattva, the little woman is willing to be a cow and a horse to serve Madame." The woman knelt and crawled in front of Yun Xiao and kowtowed.
"What's your name?"
"The little woman's name is Xiao Maihuang."
"Wheat? The name is pretty nice. Yun Xiao looked at Xiao Mai Huang, and her heart moved, this is a rare opportunity, why not take advantage of the situation to bury an ambush line?
So, with a kind heart, he said, "Wheat, you are alone, and your life is also hard, if you are willing to serve me, be a rough maid." β
"Thank you, Madame, for taking in the little girl, Madame is a good person." Wheat Huang was grateful, and kowtowed in thanksgiving.
"Little Shunzi." Yun Xiao called.
"Ma'am, the minions are here." Xiao Shunzi answered.
"Take Mai Huang to the coffin shop, buy a coffin for his father, and then follow him to his house to help Mai Huang bury his father's funeral."
"Xiao Shunzi obeys." Xiao Shunzi's heart trembled, he was afraid of seeing the coffin, but when Niangniang ordered him to come down, he had to bite the bullet.
Wheat Huang wiped away her tears and stood up, and saluted Yun Xiao respectfully, "Thank you, madam, the little girl will go to serve you after burying her father." β
"Don't worry, don't meet me during the period of filial piety, stay at home and keep filial piety for 100 days, and let Xiaoshunzi pick you up when the filial piety period expires." Yun Xiao commanded.
"Slaves and maidservants obey." Wheat yellow kowtow promised.
Xiao Shunzi took the wheat yellow to the coffin shop, the crowd dispersed, and several ministers also participated in the crowd and quietly hid.
Xuanyuan Rui walked into a restaurant with Yun Xiao.
The restaurant is not big, but it is very tidy, and it is close to lunchtime, but there are no diners, Yun Xiao knows that this restaurant is reserved by Xiao Yi.
Yun Xiao and Xuanyuan Rui sat down at the table in the middle, in order to save time, Xuanyuan Rui gave a lenient order, except for the two guards who were standing guard outside, the rest of the guards all sat down to have lunch together.
Wei Changyan arched his head at the door, revealing a sneer, "Hehe, third master, everyone came out busy, they didn't bring any money, they were hungry and panicked, hehe, the third master is good, Rong Weichen...... Oh, no, no, no, let the little ones have a gang up and have a meal. β
"Rui, let them in." Yun Xiao knew that Xuanyuan Rui was unwilling to let them get close to her, so she didn't allow Xuanyuan Rui to object, and greeted warmly, "Everyone come in and eat." β
"Ah...... Thank you, madam, thank you, husband, mercy. Wei Changyan flashed into the door and bowed gratefully to Yun Xiao by the door.
Xuanyuan Rui didn't refute Yun Xiao's face and drove them out, glanced at Wei Changyan, and coldly threw out a sentence, "Don't speak, eat and leave." β
"Yes, yes, don't speak, don't speak, the little one fills his stomach and leaves." Wei Changyan led the ministers to a corner, and four or five people occupied a table and buried themselves in eating.
Xiao Wan was at the emperor's table, looking at the table full of delicacies and seafood, but she didn't dare to stretch out her chopsticks, and only picked up the plate of tofu in front of her to eat.
Xuanyuan Rui saw that Yun Xiao was only playing with the rag doll and didn't have much appetite, so he sent a piece of fragrant stewed venison to Yun Xiao's bowl, "Xiao'er, eat quickly, eat more meat." β
"Fish all day long, I don't have an appetite when I look at it." Yun Xiao glanced at the dishes on the table, and had no appetite at all.
"What do you eat without fish?" Xuanyuan Rui smiled: "You like to eat venison the most, it seems that you have eaten enough, then eat some green vegetables." β
"I don't want to eat it." Yun Xiao shook her head lightly.
"Order what you want to eat and let the chef do it." Xuanyuan Rui coaxed very dotingly. Cat flutter Chinese
