Chapter 131: Wicked Guest
Chapter 131: Wicked Guest
Tianxianglou does not say that the daily income is also considerable.
In addition, Shen Lexi recently contributed several clothing design drafts to Mrs. Ning's ready-to-wear shop, and the dresses made according to the drawings are favored by the ladies of Kyoto, and now the orders have been scheduled until the end of the year.
Mrs. Ning made a lot of money from this.
Shen Lexi, who provided the artwork, also took a piece of the pie.
So now Shen Lexi is really not bad for money.
As for why the bargain...... Shen Lexi saw the incomprehension on Ning Xian's face, pursed his lips and smiled, and explained: "I bargain because it's interesting to bargain when buying vegetables." This is called fireworks in the world. β
Ning Xian raised his eyebrows and said suspiciously: "Fireworks in the world? β
"Yes, the fireworks in the world." Shen Lexi lifted the corner of the red color covering his face slightly, revealing half of his snow-white face, tilted his head and smiled at him, "Is life supposed to be like this to be interesting?" β
Although the boldness of spending a lot of money makes the world yearn for it, Shen Lexi always feels that that kind of life is less warm, cold, and can be seen at a glance, without a sense of expectation.
Therefore, although Shen Lexi never had to worry about life in her previous life, no matter how much money she had in her card, she still maintained the habit of shopping around for things and bargaining quickly and accurately.
And also brought this habit to the present.
Ning Xian looked at her smiling face, and then looked around at the bustling crowd around her, with a thoughtful look on her face, and then that thoughtfulness turned into eagerness to try, and then ......
Then, following Shen Lexi, the "evil guest", a new "evil guest" appeared in the bazaar.
According to the 10-point system, if the previous "villain" could get 8 points, then the current "villain" can get 11 points.
The extra point was given by the vendors who trembled in horror.
Seeβ
"How much is a pound of radish...... This radish is so big, why is it lighter than this small one? Your turnip doesn't weigh the right one. Official, there is a shoddy turnip seller here. β
After speaking, in front of the official, he clicked and broke it, and a radish was split in two, revealing the dry black core inside - radish chaff.
Shen Lexi: "......"
Turnip seller: "......!!! β
"How much is a pound of bamboo shoots...... Well, that's good. But at this price, you'll have to peel off the damaged garment before you can weigh it...... Don't peel? Good. Official, this bamboo shoots seller is short of two catties. β
After speaking, in front of the official, he hooked the fine silk thread under the other party's scale, and then gently tugged, and saw a piece of bamboo shoots that should have weighed two, three, and two, and the weight soared directly to ten catties.
Shen Lexi: "......"
Bamboo shoot seller: "......!!! β
β¦β¦
The small traders who called the evil customer were frightened, and they saw the evil customer's eyes looking at their stalls from a distance, and they suddenly seemed to be facing a great enemy, and hurriedly closed the stalls to thank the customers.
So less than a quarter of an hour after Ning Eviler appeared, the stalls in the entire market were closed for more than half of it.
The remaining half has already been plagued by Shen Lexi.
The evil guest had just found some fun in buying groceries, so he was willing to forget it, and turned around and walked back.
The remaining small half of the vendors were frightened like rats targeted by cats, and hurriedly closed their stalls to thank customersβit didn't matter if they made money for one less day, but if they were called officials...... Is that a matter of making one less day?
That's a matter of half a month in vain!
Where did this young man come from, he looked as handsome as an immortal, but turned out to be as vicious as a rakshasa!
Forget it, rest today, close the stall and go to Tianxianglou to listen to the story!
So all the small vendors in the market closed their stalls and thanked customers.
The market in the east area of Xuanwu Street, since the opening of the market, for the first time, there has been a great spectacle of collective closing of stalls before noon.
Ning Weike looked at the bazaar that was empty in an instant, then looked at the half of a radish and a bamboo shoot and a handful of green cabbage hearts in his hand, blinked innocently, and then turned back to Shen Lexi and complained: "Why did they close the stall so early?" I haven't bought enough yet. β
ββ¦β¦β
Shen Lexi sniffed, and said in his heart why don't you close the stall? Waiting to be called an official by you?
Young man, be kind, you say you can bargain, what kind of part-time job, managing the market operation order is the business of the officials, and it has nothing to do with you!
However, in the face of the aggrieved little eyes of the prince, Shen Lexi couldn't bear to poke through the side he wanted to be grounded, looked up at the sky, and said, "Is it early?" It's not early, it's time for lunch, and they should be going back to eat at this time. β
Anyway, a family like Ning Xian, today is afraid that it is the first time to buy vegetables in person, and he must not know the hard work of the small traders who sell vegetables to get up at three watches in the middle of the night and rest at sunset.
No matter how smart and powerful a person is, there are blind spots in the unknown field.
Sure enough, he saw the prince of the world say "oh", and he also raised his head to look at the sun that was about to be in the center, and said, "It's indeed time for lunch." β
Then he turned his head to look at Shen Lexi.
Then he lowered his eyes and looked at the dish he was carrying.
He bought the dishes.
Shen Lexi: "......"
The girl secretly glanced at the prince who was looking forward to it, coughed lightly, and said, "Such a fresh dish...... Let's make some food today. Well, how about making a small stir-fried bamboo shoots, duck stewed radish, and boiled cabbage heart? β
The ingredients used are all dishes that Lord Shizi personally purchased just now.
Shen Lexi suddenly felt that if she got married, then she must be one of the most considerate and understanding good wives in the world.
Sure enough, before Shen Lexi's words landed, the corners of Ning Xian's mouth were hooked as if they had lost gravity, and he said, "Okay." β
He has always been concise and to the point, and likes to use actions instead of words, after saying "good", he took the lead in raising his steps, took two steps and suddenly stopped, and asked Shen Lexi to carry the heavy vegetable basket on his arm, and then symbolically handed the lightest green cabbage heart to Shen Lexi and pinched it.
Afraid that Shen Lexi would get his hands dirty, he also deliberately tied a knot with a rope.
The knots also played tricks.
So the ordinary green cabbage heart, which costs five cents, made the prince so skillfully tossed, and immediately turned into a noblewoman, and his temperament doubled.
Shen Lexi: "......"
If Ning Xian gets married in the future, then he must be the most considerate, gentle, careful and romantic husband in the world.
I don't know which girl will be so lucky in the future.
Looking at the young man's straight back, he automatically replaced the vegetable basket carried by the other party with a certain girl's Qianqianyu hand, imagining the picture of the two walking hand in hand...... Shen Lexi bit his lip, and a gloom appeared in his eyes.
In the blink of an eye, it was the second day.
As Shen Lexi expected, after adding Ning Xian's name to the invitation, almost no one could refuse her invitation.
The feast is held in the evening.
It is the banquet room of the Guogong Mansion.
There is no way, Shen Lexi's Qingzhu Courtyard is too small to accommodate dozens of sons and ladies from the Guogong Mansion.
Of course, with Ning Xian in charge, Shen Lexi no longer needs to cook by himself, and the rest of the work is to greet a group of young ladies to eat, drink, and have fun.
Then I invite you to watch a stage play.
The protagonist of the stage play: Xi Niang.
