Chapter 34: Shopping
34. Shopping
"Let's go?"
Buried in a pile of work, she looked up and saw someone coming, it was Roland.
Subconsciously spoke, "Where are you going?" β
Roland always had a smile that warmed her heart, "I said I would take you around your territory?" β
She raised an eyebrow, "My territory?" β
Roland chuckled and took her arm, "Go visit Ales City." β
She waved her hand and pulled the corners of her mouth, "I haven't finished reading the official document yet." β
Roland looked her up and down, "It's okay, I'll see it when I come back." Do you first look at what you've been wearing all day, and outsiders still think that the adults are mistreating you, or is it that the palace of Ales is empty, and Prince Moro doesn't even have any decent clothes? β
I really don't have any clothes, and there is usually a banquet where the maids in the palace prepare clothes, and there are only two or three pieces of clothing that really belong to me, if you want to add military uniforms. What Roland said made sense, of course, she had never been able to refuse Roland's words, and this time it was the same, so she had to say, "Okay then." β
As the capital of the Demon Party and the largest city of the Demon Party, Ales City is naturally extraordinary and prosperous. Moro is still relatively new to everything in the city, he has lived here for more than 20 years, but he has never visited the city well.
The two outstanding people are also the two princes of the Demon Party, even if Mo Luo wears the simplest shirt and trousers, and even does not apply powder, it still attracts the attention of people on the road.
"Look, that's Mo Luo and Roland, the day before yesterday, the palace said that they were engaged, and the relationship between childhood sweethearts ......"
Indeed, he and she have fulfilled almost all the fantasies of the Demon Party about marriage, from Iliad and Vera, to the two of them, which is enough to give the Demon Party the greatest sense of security.
"What a happy couple."
The words of others fell into her ears word for word, and she laughed happily, but she couldn't help but feel sad.
For a moment, she thought that maybe it would be okay to think about anything else.
But he is still unwilling, still sad, or sad.
"Let's go over there, there's the biggest clothing store in Ales." Roland tugged at her sleeve and made her follow Roland's gaze all at once.
"How do you know so well everywhere?" She was always puzzled, whether it was in Mister or Ales, he knew exactly where to go and what to aim for, which was reassuring.
He patted her on the back of the head, "This is Ales, you should know better than I do, this time I'll take you, next time you and Dolores can go out shopping with someone else." β
Hearing this, she flattened her mouth, "Where do you have so much time, I still have a lot of work to do." β
"Silly girl."
What Roland said was indeed true, this was the largest clothing store in Ales, the big one was like an official villa, and when he saw the two of them come in, the shopkeeper greeted him with a smile on his face.
"How's this?"
Morrow's taste in clothes was limited to black, but Roland brought her a pale yellow dress, even embellished with a few white feathers.
Her frown furrowed, "Where can I wear this, this is clearly Dolores's style." β
Roland looked disappointed, "Isn't it pretty?" β
She didn't want to save Roland's face, "It's ...... Good...... bar. β
Roland shoved the clothes into her hands, "Then you can try it." β
Mo Luo pursed his lips, a little worried, and looked at him with a little embarrassment, "Does it have to be?" β
"Definitely." He touched her hair dotingly, and the fluffy touch was good.
Although these clothes were not to her taste, she didn't want to save Roland's face, so she took the skirt and tried it on.
At this time when Mo Luo went in to change clothes, the shopkeeper quickly rushed to Roland's side, "Lord Roland, everything is ready." β
Roland stared at the locker room door, as if disturbed by his good mood, "Got it." β
"Is it pretty?" Mo Luo had never worn such clothes, standing in front of the mirror and didn't know what to say, his clothes were either black or white, and then dark and cold, wearing this felt like himself anymore, frowning, feeling uncomfortable.
"I think it's good?" Roland looked at it and said.
"Prince Morrow, this is a new arrival, the material is very soft, and this color also matches your eyes, the noble ladies of Ales are buying clothes from me, you can rest assured." The shopkeeper said with a smile on his face.
She didn't seem to be very good at refusing, and although she didn't like it, she still said, "Then wrap this dress, and I'll change it." β
"No need to change, wear it, wrap up your original clothes." Roland glanced at the boss meaningfully.
"Let's see if there's anything else."
Morrow's expression moved, and he saw a familiar garment.
The simplest style, a white dress with no frillsβthe one that Lorenzo once gave her was exactly the same," continued the shopkeeper next to him, "Prince Moro is really eye-catching, this dress came in from the secret party, it looks like it was at the beginning of the year, but it doesn't go out of fashion at all now." β
"It's too simple." Roland waved his hand, feeling bad.
"I like this, wrap this one." She nodded slightly, motioning for the shopkeeper to wrap the piece.
The shopkeeper understood, and smiled even more, "There are many more, you can take a look at these again." β
Roland picked out a few more and asked her, she didn't even have to nod, Mo Luo looked at these dazzling clothes casually, and he was really not interested.
The shopkeeper led her to the shoe section with great eyes.
A pair of stiletto heels taller than the other gave her a headache, and after wearing a pair at the last banquet, she swore that she would never abuse her feet like this again, it was like being tortured.
"You don't like high heels?"
"Well, it hurts. I really admire them for being able to stand in their clothes for so long. β
Roland had an even more headache, frowned and stared at her, but saw her in pain, but still opened his mouth to persuade him, "You still have to pick two pairs, you can't wear strange shoes to the banquet, I remember that there are still many important occasions this week." β
Mo Luo had no choice but to order three pairs of shoes, and he didn't even have the interest to try them out.
"Let's look at the jewelry."
Roland's originally beautiful voice was like a magic voice, "Ah, you spare me, it's too torturous, if you want to torture me, you just beg the adults to beat me." β
Roland couldn't do anything about her, so he had to stop torturing her, "Okay, okay, then ask the boss to settle the bill." β
The boss smiled even deeper, almost with laugh lines.
"Lord Roland, a total of 30,000 kilograms."
Her eyes widened in surprise, she didn't expect a few clothes and three pairs of shoes to cost so much, and looked at Roland, "I don't have that much money, and I only have a kilogram a month." Her voice had faded, and there was even embarrassment on her face.
Roland looked at her like this and laughed, "Silly girl, do you think you're in the Military Academy?" You do so much work every day, and Ales doesn't pay you? And all the taxes of your Casda fiefdom belong to you, my silly girl, you are the prince of Tsmisi, will you be short of money to spend? β
"I never knew ......" she never received money, and no one told her that she still had a salary.
Roland looked at her even more shocked, "And all the monthly adults before you went to the military academy gave you a lot of money, don't you know any of this?" β
Morrow shook his head.
"Silly girl."
I never need to spend money, I don't have any requirements for clothing, the only few clothes that belong to me are extremely simple, the cost is very little, and I haven't spent money on food and living.
"And where's my money?"
"Who is in charge of your usual accounts?" Roland looked at her like a girl in the countryside who had never seen money, and thought it was funny.
"I don't know, Ethan."
"Haven't you adjusted the tax return of Casda Territory since you returned?"
"I thought it was all handed over to the party."
"Silly girl."
