Chapter 43 Book Purchase

When the carriage came to the corner of the alley, Feng Wan said softly, "Stop." ”

The rider stopped and looked back at Feng Wan.

Feng Wan was in a daze.

She looked at Wei Ziyang's mansion two hundred steps away, and couldn't help but reach out and touch her face. As soon as the tooth marks on it had disappeared, she went to him, a little unreasonable. Of course, the most unreasonable thing is how she spoke to him, did she say, you are going to go on a battle, this is your first battle, there will be a little danger, you may be injured?

Or should you prevent someone from hurting you with a hidden arrow?

She couldn't do that.

After pondering for a while, Feng Wan said, "Let's go to the left alley." ”

"Yes."

The left alley is deep, and it is inhabited by people who lived before the establishment of the capital. The narrow lanes, the cobblestone roads, and the low wooden houses, the filth, and the garbage piled up everywhere, make it rare for nobles to come here.

The carriage was bumpy after a few steps, and the driver, while driving the carriage with difficulty, asked, "Madame, where is this going?" ”

"Right ahead."

"Okay."

The carriage was a little faster.

After a while, a deeper and narrower alleyway, which could not be passed by carriages, appeared in front of Feng Wan's eyes. Calling to stop the carriage, Feng Wan walked down.

From her vantage point, she could see that at the end of the laneway, under a small mulberry tree on the right, there were some broken wooden pieces.

Feng Wan confessed to the driver: "Behind me, you don't have to get too close. ”

"Yes."

She walked slowly towards the mulberry tree.

In such a dilapidated and gray place, it is still rare for Feng Wan to be a well-dressed official wife. From time to time, snot-inhaling boys stuck their heads out of the door, all of them were yellow and thin, and when they saw Feng Wan, they were all stunned.

On the wooden table behind the mulberry tree, there was a thin old man, Feng Wan approached, regardless of the old man's shabby clothes and dirt on his skin, Feng Wan blessed him, and said softly: "I heard that the old man's family has a unique scripture, and the little woman wants to buy one or two." ”

Her gentle and polite voice alarmed the old man, and he slowly turned his head and glared at Feng Wan with a pair of dim eyes. Looking at him blankly, the old man's southern accent was indistinct, "In today's world, there are still Han people?" And Sinology? ”

There was a deep despair in his voice.

Feng Wan couldn't afford to be blessed, she lowered her eyes and said in a low voice, "Yes." The bloodline is there, the Han people are there, the descendants are there, and the sinology is there. ”

Her accent at this time also had some southern accents that she had learned from her grandfather when she was a girl.

The old man finally stared at her earnestly.

After staring at her for a moment, he staggered to his feet and staggered towards the dilapidated wooden house.

After a long time, the old man came out with his heart on his side, and after he took out a piece of brown paper from his bosom, and put it respectfully and cautiously on it, the old man said in a dumb voice, "Take it, five gold leaves." ”

Raising his head, the old man looked at Feng Wan with empty eyes, grinning with the yellow teeth that were missing, and said vaguely: "The family is difficult, if you don't come as a woman, you can only give it when you meet a barbarian." ”

This Feng Wan knew it. And she knew that the price offered by the old man was even higher than the price he offered to Hu Ren in the previous life.

She stepped forward, reached for the brown paper, opened it, looked at it, and put it in her arms. Then, taking out five gold leaves from his sleeve pocket, Feng Wan said in a low voice, "Take care, old man." ”

With that, she turned and walked away.

Seeing her walk out, the man hurriedly caught up with her, and he glanced at the old man who was dizzy and hiding back in the room, and asked, "Madam, what are you doing here in this kind of place?" ”

Feng Wan said nonchalantly: "I heard that he had a book to buy here, so he bought one." ”

In this era, books are extremely precious, and the husband nodded when he heard it, and didn't think much about it anymore.

The two got into the carriage one after the other, and when the carriage moved, a number of men with yellow faces and thin muscles and cloudy eyes came out, and they looked at the bright carriage with envy, as well as Feng Wan in the carriage.

A teenager rubbed his hands together and whispered, "This carriage is good." ”

A big man glared at him and whispered, "Didn't you see the driver?" A fat and strong man, how can you and I beat? ”

The young man hurriedly shrank his head and grinned: "Just talk, talk." ”

The carriage finally drove to the middle of the main street, and when it came to this place full of people, Feng Wan took a deep breath: The alley was old and smelly, and it was really unlikeable.

Her hand was pressed into her bosom, where there was a rare book. In the eyes of some people, it is worthless, but at other times, it is not easy to make a hundred dollars.

After pressing it for a while, she couldn't help but take out the two books and read them carefully in the sun.

Looking at it, the carriage stopped.

Has it arrived? Feng Wan glanced up.

But this glance, she was stunned.

How did you get to Wei Ziyang's mansion? Frowning, Feng Wan put the book back into his arms and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"I'll answer you."

A crisp and delicate voice came.

Amid the sound of horses' hooves, a girl in a gorgeous costume appeared in front of Feng Wan.

She was not the only one who appeared, as she stopped in three carriages not far away, sticking out several heads.

Before Feng Wan could take a closer look, the beautiful girl in the gorgeous dress had come to her car, tilting her head to look at her, the girl raised her delicate chin and asked sharply, "Do you know who I am?" ”

Feng Wan was blessed in the carriage and called, "I've seen the fourth princess." ”

After giving the salute, she asked gently, "I don't know what the fourth princess has to say when she stops the little woman?" ”

"Teach?" The fourth princess snorted, and she said disdainfully: "With a woman like you, there is nothing to say. But on that day, you behaved strangely and dared to seduce Wei Xiaolang. I'm going to settle this matter with you. ”

She pulled the horsewhip off her waist, threw it on the wheel of Feng Wan's carriage with a loud bang, and ordered: "Say! What's going on at that Rugen Temple? ”

When the fourth princess asked this, Feng Wan clearly felt that the noise in those carriages was over.

Feng Wan smiled, she looked at the fourth princess gently, good-natured, and said softly: "My husband and I have only been in the capital for a month, and we are a woman's family, what can happen in that Liuyuan Temple?" ”

Looking at the princess, Feng Wan said, "Everything is just accidental. The concubine has always believed in the Buddha, and that day coincided with the heavy rain to go into the incense, vaguely, it seemed that there were people coming and going under the Bodhisattva incense table, so she paid attention. ”

She looked at the fourth princess, and her voice turned to a clear one, "The Bodhisattva is merciful, and he must not tolerate the shameless things of the pickled people in front of it. After thinking about it again and again, I couldn't rest my heart. took advantage of that day to offer incense and ventured to press under the incense table. ”

Feng Wan asked the fourth princess, "Does the princess think that this kind of thing can't be done by a little woman?" ”

The fourth princess choked, and a middle-aged woman's voice came from the carriage behind, "This lady is so bold, aren't you afraid of seeing the wrong eye?" ”
