Chapter 41 Reserved
People who have no heart and no lungs often sleep until dawn as soon as they dip into bed.
After opening her eyes the next day, Tang Lu'er sat on the bed and was stunned for a while before she came back to her senses, and then her stomach rumbled. She scratched her head, she seemed to have entered the house last night, and after hastily washing her face, she went straight to bed, and she didn't even eat dinner. After thinking for a while, she got out of bed, walked to the window, pushed open the sash and looked out, the sky was just white, and the air was still fresh and humid with the characteristic freshness and humidity of the early morning. She stood there and stretched, yawned, and then went out and called Xiao Er to come over and prepare something for her, and by the way, she asked if the people in the room next to her were awake.
After washing her face and combing her hair again, Tang Luer touched her oily bangs, lowered her eyes and looked at the crumpled clothes on her body, only to realize that she was very dirty. There is always a sticky feeling in the armpits and back, it is estimated that she was sweating from her sleep last night, and she can still sleep so dead. The more I thought about it, the more uncomfortable I felt, but if I had to take a bath, I had to at least have a change of clothes, and I couldn't put this dirty clothes back on, because these clothes had been rolled on the mountain.
Buy clothes, we have money now, anyway, the pen, the ruler, and the paper and everything have to be bought, and by the way, I bought all of them.
She didn't dare to forget the map, this was her only reliance, after all, the evil star didn't starve her, didn't cold her, didn't abuse her all the way, it had something to do with it, she had always been self-aware.
"Seventh brother, get up." After deciding, Tang Lu'er walked out of the room with her shriveled stomach and walked to Tian Qi's door and knocked on the door.
After a while, the door opened, and as soon as Tang Lu'er raised her eyes, she immediately saw Tian Qi dressed cleanly and with her hair neatly appearing in front of her. It's just that his face unexpectedly showed a little tiredness, and his eyes were also a little bloodshot.
"Didn't you sleep last night?" Tang Lu'er asked in a daze, in the past few days, she had never seen this evil star show tiredness. In her impression, this person seemed to be full of energy and ready to go all the time, but she didn't want to come like this suddenly, although it didn't look obvious, but it still surprised her.
Could it be that because he was wanted by King An Yuan, he finally felt unbearable?
As soon as this thought arose, Tang Lu'er immediately dispelled it, it shouldn't be enough, there is a good saying, hiding is a kind of helplessness, hiding is a skill. The evil star clearly belonged to the latter, and although she could not see the internal cause, she could feel it, and he used such techniques with ease.
Tian Qi let go of her body and let her into the house before asking, "What's the matter?" ”
Avoiding her question again, Tang Lu'er quietly wrinkled her nose, then walked to the table by herself, poured a cup of cold tea, and took a sip before wiping the corners of her mouth and said, "Didn't you say that you should get the map today, you have to go out and buy a pen ruler and paper, and I can do it later." Also, did you have dinner yesterday, I overslept last night, and now I'm almost hungry. Also, we haven't taken a shower for two days, and the clothes on this body are dirty, so let's buy two sets of clothes by the way, and there is still a lot of silver left from yesterday......"
Tian Qi originally watched her talk, but after hearing her mention taking a bath, and with the word "we" in front of her, he looked away expressionlessly. This girl is so indistinguishable from each other, Tian Qi didn't know what to say about her, and after being silent for a while, he nodded and said, "Let's go." ”
After inquiring a few words with the guys in the inn, Tang Lu'er and Tian Qi walked out of the Fengxiang Inn and walked towards Mahang Street.
The fog has not yet cleared in the early morning, and many shops in Xiangzhou City have begun to open, and you can see all kinds of breakfast stalls along the way. There are those who sell porridge and noodles, there are those who sell soup dumplings, and next to each stall there is a burning stove with a large steamer on top of the stove. As soon as the stall owners opened the lid of the steamer, a thick white mist with an enticing fragrance rose out. Almost every stall has three or two regular customers, or holding a bowl to bury their heads in eating, or holding chopsticks and talking nonsense to the stall owner, talking about some odd things, but the excitement and the smile on everyone's face are vivid, full of strong, and let the heart calm the smell of fireworks.
This is the morning of Xiangzhou, this is the morning of the big scene, the ordinary and simple morning that has been noisy for thousands of years.
The day dawned in a busy atmosphere, and the streets that slowly became lively ushered in a new sunrise in the bustling crowd.
After Tang Lu'er ate two large bowls of hot wontons, she finally felt more comfortable in her stomach, and was about to praise it, but when she saw that Tian Qi had eaten a bowl, and she hadn't finished eating it, she changed her tone and asked, "Hey, you don't like to eat this?" ”
"You're full, let's go." Tian Qi said casually, and stood up as he spoke.
Tang Lu'er glanced at him puzzled, but before she could think about it, someone sat down next to her, and the stall owner was busy cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, Tang Lu'er had to stand up and pay, and then followed Tian Qi, followed for a while, and after quietly observing for a while, he carefully asked: "Bad appetite?" Got something on your mind? Too much pressure? Or do you think I'm too verbose? ”
"Ahead is Mobao Zhai." Tian Qi glanced at her, "Let's go buy pen and ink first." ”
"Of course, of course, it's important to get down to business first." Tang Lu'er nodded hurriedly, and glanced at him quietly, just turning her head, she saw that the redness in his eyes had not receded, and she didn't know what this guy did last night, he didn't sleep well at night, how could he have a good appetite in the morning.
After a short time, they arrived at Mobao Zhai, after the two went in, Tang Luer first went around, and saw that the things here were quite complete, scale rulers, charcoal pencils and other things, so he opened his mouth to ask for two scales, one large and one small, two pencils, two of the smallest wolf hair, three kinds of pigments, blue, red and yellow, a box of ink and a piece of white cotton paper.
When she first saw the pencil and the scale three years ago, she was surprised, and the most surprising thing was that the scale on the scale was very close to the modern ruler, as if it had also crossed over. But when I asked, I realized that this thing had been available a hundred years ago, and she was rare and strange.
After leaving Mobaozhai, Tang Lu'er looked at Tian Qi, who had been silent, afraid that he would not have confidence in himself, so he took the initiative to explain: "I am not drawing a map, I am just copying a map, so these things are enough, you can rest assured, you can't make a mistake." ”
Tian Qi really gave face, not only did he not doubt it at all, but also asked: "How long will it take you to finish?" ”
"Hmm...... It's estimated that it will take two or three days, the map is quite big, I have to concentrate, what, you are in a hurry? ”
Tian Qi pondered for a while, nodded and said, "Three days is fine." ”
"Okay, then let's buy clothes." Tang Lu'er breathed a sigh of relief, and pulled Tian Qi to the front garment store with a smile. Tian Qi glanced at his sleeve, helplessly followed, but just took two steps, he suddenly turned his head to look to the side, and saw a white-clothed man shaking a fan standing on the corner of the street. After the other party looked at him, not only did he not panic, but nodded slightly to him, and then turned around and walked away so slowly.
After seeing the man's figure disappear on the corner of the street, Tian Qi withdrew his gaze, his face was still calm, but his eyes were slightly cold.
Tang Lu'er didn't know that since she met the man in white yesterday, the other party had been floating not far from them. And that person secretly provoked Tian Qi several times, but Tian Qi never made a move on him, and he didn't know what he was worried about.
……
After entering the largest ready-to-wear store on Namahang Street, Tian Qi still stood aside and didn't speak, letting Tang Lu'er pick it up by herself.
A quarter of an hour passed, and Tang Luer finally picked a light purple round-necked embroidered plum blossom skirt and a moon-white collared orchid embroidered long jacket. It's just that after two quarters of an hour passed, she had just picked out two robes for Tian Qi, and she fell in love with another light gold and pink two-color floral trimming gown, and a white plain satin pleated skirt.
"Girl, this is the latest trick this year, many official girls love this one, you see...... "The boss is a businessman, and when he saw the look on Tang Luer's face, he worked hard to sell it.
Tang Lu'er stood there a little tangled, the ancients were not stupid, and good things were not cheap anywhere. She looked at the clothes and secretly calculated the price in her heart, but after this calculation, her heart suddenly felt a little empty. After deducting the room fee paid last night and the things I just bought, the one hundred taels is less than eighty taels left. And these clothes, plus the ones she picked for the evil star, would cost more than forty taels to buy them all!
Loser! Even if it was the silver blown by the wind, she was embarrassed to spend it like this, and in fact, the one hundred taels of silver were not for her, she just stained it with it.
For a while, Tang Luer seemed to be possessed by Hamlet, whether to buy it or not, this is a question.
Tian Qi finally couldn't wait any longer, and walked over and asked the boss to wrap up all the clothes.
"I don't need that one, it's so expensive." Tang Lu'er hurriedly said politely, I thought that Tian Qi would say that it is not expensive, you can like it or something, but who knew that people opened their mouths and said: "It's a little expensive, forget it." ”
Tang Lu'er was dumbfounded, and the guy from the store who was happily packing them was also stunned, he looked at the clothes, and didn't know whether to continue packing them or take them out.
……
After walking out of the ready-to-wear store with the pile of clothes in her arms, Tang Lu'er glanced at Tian Qi happily and said, "Wasn't I reserved just now, don't destroy it." ”
"Reserved." Tian Qi glanced at her lightly, and said expressionlessly, "That thing, you have it?" ”
“…… It seems that there is, I'll go back and look for it. Tang Lu'er turned her head silently holding her clothes, roaring in her heart, if you don't tell the truth, you will die, you will die!
