He said it vaguely, but the meaning was very clear, this pearl is very valuable. At least, as a prince, he has never received such a treasure.

When Xu Chu heard this, she was stunned for a moment, she originally only regarded this bead as precious, but she didn't know that it was so valuable. So, in surprise, she glanced at him, and both of them frowned slightly.

If Liu Wengui can use convenient conditions to buy Nanzhu for his wife Liu Zhen, then why can Taohong, a small subordinate, have gold beads that are more rare and valuable than those Nanzhu?

And Liu Wengui burned the pink clothes in a hurry, was it really just for his wife?

Whatever it is, it's worth exploring.

On the side, Xiao Mingzhu also snatched the pearl in Xiao Qinglang's hand, looked at it over and over for a long time, and said with a sad face: "Such a hard-to-find bead, I don't know when the flower peacock will have to find it." ”

Obviously, among the dowry gifts from the east, west, north and south, King Ning wants are Nanyang gold pearls.

Her interruption made the condensation and heavy atmosphere between Xu Chu and Xiao Qinglang dissipate a lot.

Seeing her frowning and distressed, Xu Chu and Xiao Qinglang couldn't help but look at each other, and then shrugged helplessly.

Xu Chu nodded her little head with a smile, and said speechlessly: "Since the playboy wants to marry you, he has to show his sincerity." Since Gluttonous Lou can become famous in Da Zhou in a short period of time, he must also be really capable, at least the dowry he should give will not be less. You just wait for him in peace, and you may be ...... one day Sister Chu has to marry you with tears in her eyes! ”

"Sister Chu?" She was stunned for a moment, and only after seeing her third uncle's clothes clearly did she blush, pouting and muttering, "Sister Chu is Sister Chu, and she sounds much younger than the third uncle on the left and right." ”

Xiao Mingzhu was also teased a lot by Xu Chu, but now she won't stomp her feet and run away. At this time, although she was still a little shy in her heart, she still approached Xu Chu with a somewhat flattering smile and asked, "Sister Chu, can my third uncle tell you what he wants?" ”

At this time, several people had already joined Zhang Youwei and walked to the front of Liu's house to get into the carriage. Therefore, it is not necessary for others to hear something and speculate.

However, when Xu Chu heard this, he choked on his throat with a sip of tea, and beat his chest for a long time before he recovered. Xiao Qinglang said such vague and unclear things at noon today, how could it be that Xiao Mingzhu was only ......

Probably she didn't know that Xiao Qinglang's tolerance and love for her, from Xiao Mingzhu to the palace guards, who didn't feel like a mirror in her heart?

If it weren't for the fear of frightening her, I'm afraid Xiao Qinglang wouldn't have let himself completely infiltrate her life so silently. It is necessary to know how many women in the world admire the world-famous King Jing'an, and how many official eunuchs want to send their carefully cultivated concubines to the Jing'an Palace, even if it is just to be a concubine.

However, although the King of Jing'an is as bright as the moon, he is not a good woman, so that many courtiers secretly speculate whether he is inhumane. After all, the heirs of the royal family, who are over twenty years old but have not yet opened meat, have never been seen in ancient times.

Of course, it was precisely because Xu Chu didn't know these insides that she only regarded Xiao Qinglang's actions as admiration rather than admiration.

"Don't look at his usual introverted and boring, in fact, it's what the imperial aunt said, what is it at all...... Stuffy belly? ”

Xu Chu was dumbfounded, and there was a choking cough, Xu was too hard, and his eyes instantly became red and moist, and even his hair and temples were loose, which was quite embarrassing. Black belly, still stuffy/sassy? This description, if she has a black belly, she can generally understand that there is something inside. But it's boring/sassy...... Xu Chu secretly glanced at Xiao Qinglang, and met his eyes, but saw that the eyes that were still deep like an abyss in front of Liu Wengui, at this time, the ice and snow inside had melted as if they were about to bloom in spring.

Suddenly, she suddenly remembered his sneer in the carriage, "How do I treat others", and inexplicably recognized the sullen comment in her heart.

However, what surprised her even more was why such fashionable adjectives appeared in good antiquity. Does it mean that while she is traveling, there is also a companion from that plane?

Thinking of this possibility, Xu Chu couldn't help but be a little excited in his heart. However, it's just a moment, she has lived in Da Zhou for a long time, and she is even a little used to it, and there are too many worries that she can't let go.

It's like a dad whose whereabouts are unknown, and ...... Xiao Qinglang, who didn't dare to approach and was reluctant to put it down.

In the end, after the group joined Zhang Youwei, the same official who asked for news left together.

The sky is getting more and more gloomy, and the cold wind is cold, which is a sign of the wind and snow falling. Probably because of the bad weather, the streets were already deserted at this time, and the few stalls that could occasionally be seen were not empty. When I came, it was still bustling with people, and even when I ate at noon, I felt like I was rubbing shoulders, but now the streets are sparse and there are no people on the streets for only two hours. Not to mention the sound of selling, and the sound of children playing.

Xu Chu opened the curtain of the carriage window and glanced out, but she didn't expect a gust of cold wind to surge, which directly made her can't help but sneeze. Xu is sneezing touched her throat, and she hadn't drunk water for most of the day, and now it was even more dry and uncomfortable, so she couldn't help but raise her hand and rub her throat to make a note.

Xiao Qinglang frowned, glanced down through the gap in the window, and then raised his voice and instructed Wei Guang outside: "Go and buy some roasted pears sold by the old man just now." ”

"Hey, third uncle, don't you like to eat these the least?" Xiao Mingzhu glanced at Xiao Qinglang suspiciously. Many civil officials in the Great Zhou Dynasty loved to be vassals and elegant, and I don't know when those civil officials began to tout eating things like roasted pears and baked apples. If you meet someone who doesn't like the sweet taste, I'm afraid that you will suffer a lot of disgust.

Her third uncle has always scoffed at those people, and those who don't like fruits in the first place, let alone taste the pears and apples that are steamed and roasted hot.

It was precisely in this way that when he spoke, Xiao Mingzhu was at a loss.

Xiao Qinglang sat on the top seat, and when he heard the action of pouring water on his hand, he stagnated, and said calmly without changing his color: "Sometimes it's not a bad thing to try, just like if you don't sneak out of the capital, how can you experience the joy of the people in the market, and how can you meet your sister Chu?" ”

This was right for Xiao Mingzhu's thoughts, and she didn't think about it deeply, so she nodded with a smile. I didn't see the difference in my third uncle's long and deep eyes staring at my sister Chu, but even if she saw it, she probably agreed.

Although it will be a little awkward to change from Sister Xu to Sister Chu, and then from Sister Chu to the third aunt, I can't help but I really like her. His third uncle is a jade-faced Yama, who is both good-looking and powerful, but he is old and has not yet found a sweetheart. The uncle who was still harmed always sighed with his father, and often wondered if the third uncle had broken his sleeves......

Thinking of this, Xiao Mingzhu unconsciously raised her eyebrows and secretly looked at Xu Chu. Although Sister Chu is only handsome in appearance and has no family background, she can't stand up to being better than all the ladies she knows. Anyway, in her impression, except for Sister Chu, she has never heard of a woman who dares to conduct an autopsy and dare to enter the yamen to solve the case.

The more she thought about it, the hotter her eyes became, and she really wanted to turn Xu Chu back to the capital directly and let the big guy take a look.

After the pears were delivered, Xiao Qinglang naturally picked one and handed it to Xiao Mingzhu, and then gave Xu Chu another one.

"Roasted pears can relieve cough and phlegm, moisten and moisten the lungs, and some people in Beijing often say that cough and sore throat do not need to take medicine, just eat roasted pears." After speaking, he took the tea cup in front of Xu Chu, and poured the leftover tea she drank into his cup as if he didn't care. Then, he handed over the empty teacup and motioned for Xu Chu to pick it up.

I don't know if it's because of my sluggish head, or because of Xiao Mingzhu, a living treasure, Xu Chu, who felt awkward before, even reached out to take the teacup. Then he leaned forward slightly and took a bite into the roasted pears that looked soft.

After just one bite, she narrowed her eyes pleasantly, and after a while, the fragrance spread softly and softly in her limbs, making her sigh. Almost at the same time, her eyes suddenly widened, and she said in surprise: "There are rock sugar and wolfberries in it?" ”

In her previous life, she rarely ate such desserts. After crossing the Great Zhou Dynasty, the most extravagant snack was just that after my father got the reward from the yamen, he brought himself some maltose or sugar gourd. And roasted pears, which should have been eaten by rich and noble families, are indeed rarely touched by her.

Nowadays, the entrance is naturally very rare.

Xiao Mingzhu originally had no intention of eating it, and the roasted pears she used to eat looked very beautiful. As for the rock sugar wolfberries inside, she won't care about it. You must know that if she eats desserts in Su Ri, most of them are pear cups and the like, which are accompanied by white fungus bird's nest, which is crystal clear and makes people have a great appetite when they see it. But right now, the hands are soft and even a little dirty.

However, after seeing Xu Chu's enjoyment, she still felt a little hungry. So, just now, she was about to reject her third uncle with righteous words, and she also followed Xu Chu's example, took the teacup and took a small bite slowly.

Almost instantly, the fragrance of pears hit her with a sweet taste, so that she couldn't help but take two more bites.

"How do you get this pear, it's better than the imperial chef's cooking?" Xiao Mingzhu opened her mouth suspiciously, no matter how she looked left or right, it didn't seem to be.

Xu Chu saw that her face was full of suspicion, and said with a smile: "Probably this is the master in the people, the so-called wisdom of the people is to go to poverty, like these most original ways to eat are actually in the market." ”
