Chapter 110: Laughter ripples

Shi Yu saw that the ink of the painting Qing Qing took in the past was not completely dry, and when he looked carefully, he couldn't help but marvel, the artistic conception in the painting was far-reaching, and the place where the pen was put down was exquisite and skillful, and it seemed simple but actually hidden a lot of charm. Shi Yu's exclamated expression made Qingqing feel a little relieved, fortunately, he didn't bother to draw the camel in vain, so he saved a sum of silver.

Qingqing and Shi Yu happily rode the carriage to pay New Year's greetings to the prefect, and Zhang Xiang and the camel stood at the door and watched the carriage go farther and farther.

"What are you missing? He's a eunuch now! The camel blinked at Zhang Xiang and told him with a look of contempt.

"Which eye of yours sees that I'm lost? How about he's a eunuch? Are you still a brute? She doesn't treat you any better than she treats me. Hum! Zhang flicked his sleeves and turned to go in, ignoring the camel. The camel stood there and turned his head to think about what he said, and he always felt that something was wrong, and finally understood that the phrase "beast" was wrong, was this scolding him? I should have scolded him! The camel was thinking, and after thinking about it, he was relieved, because the camel was a beast in the first place! What's there to be angry about?

Along the way, Qingqing lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked out, and there were pedestrians coming and going on the road, all carrying paper-wrapped pastries or wine jars to pay New Year's greetings. It is rare for them to wear new clothes today, and those who do not have new clothes try to wear clothes that are not patched or torn.

"Brother Shi Yu, look at the people today who are very happy and wearing beautiful clothes." Qingqing didn't like watching it, and beckoned Shi Yu to watch it too. Shi Yu smiled and refused.

The coachman who was driving the car outside was arranged by Zhang Xiang, and his main purpose was to supervise Shi Yu not to get too close to Qingqing. So he carefully observed all the way, because in his heart he was as holy as a fairy, and a person like Shi Yu who had a bad past was not even qualified to be a brother and sister.

The coachman deliberately drove the car very quickly, passing through several towns, and the place he arrived at became more and more prosperous, most of the houses here were made of blue bricks, and almost all the people were wearing new clothes, and there were more people going out in horse-drawn carriages.

"Where is this?" Qingqing asked curiously.

"This is Jinhua Town, the richest place in Yunyong City." The coachman rushed in front of Shi Yu to answer Qingqing, he just didn't want Shi Yu to communicate with Qingqing more.

"Oh, isn't the prefect staying here?" Qingqing asked again.

"No, the prefect's mansion is built in the next town, and there is Ansheng." The coachman rushed to answer again, Shi Yu felt that something was wrong, how could a coachman be so bold as to dare to speak in front of the county officials. So he understood that this coachman must be the person arranged by Zhang Xiang.

"Sister Qing, do you know the dialect and customs here? I'll talk to the prefect in a while, and you may be arranged to have tea in the backyard with those ladies and ladies, do you know how to deal with it? After all, Shi Yu has been in the officialdom for a few years, and it is not a problem to deal with a small minion, and he successfully directed Qingqing's attention to his side as soon as he asked a few questions, and the coachman outside couldn't answer the phone, because he didn't understand.

The coachman listened with his ears pricked up, and when he was about to arrive, the coachman muttered outside in advance that he was almost there, just to attract Qingqing's attention and asked her not to continue chatting with Shi Yu. Qingqing is also a girl who is easily attracted, she lifted the curtain again and looked out, and at this time, a handsome boy in gray brocade sat on the back of a red horse passing by.

The boy saw Qingqing's fair little face, and his big dark eyes were curiously looking at everything in front of him, and his face was full of curious joy. Especially Qingqing's subconscious smile suddenly fell into his heart, and slowly imprinted a ripple.

When Qingqing felt that someone was looking at her, she looked up and saw that the boy on the horse was staring at her intently, out of politeness, Qingqing smiled at him and let go of the curtain and stopped looking outside.
