Mao Yinxuan nodded very seriously and said, "I went to tell Mr. early in the morning that I would ask for leave for these two days!" ”

As soon as she heard that her brother, a good student, was willing to ask for two days off for her, Mao Tongtong was moved in her heart. Looking at Ama and Eniang again, their eyes were unconsciously red. But she was afraid that the Chen family would be sad when they saw it, so she hurriedly sniffed and said with a smile: "It seems that I still have some weight in my brother's heart, and it can be worth two days off!" ”

"You cramped devil!" Chen scolded with a smile: "Arrange your eldest brother again!" ”

Mao Yinxuan looked at Mao Tongtong helplessly and shook his head with a smile, my sister is so eccentric, it's really distressing. He didn't see her reddish eyes.

While he was talking, dinner came from the kitchen.

The maids fetched water to clean the hands of the four of them, and when the dishes on the table were all set, they took their seats in turn.

The Mao family has a simple population and a simple life on weekdays. Four people sit at a small round table, four meats, two vegetables, six hot dishes, and a cup of hot soup, and it is dinner. There is no rule on the table that you don't eat or sleep. The family talked while eating, and they were also happy.

After dinner, Mao Tongtong and Mao Yinxuan, the brothers and sisters, accompanied Mao Chengyun and Chen to talk again, and then got up and returned to their respective rooms.

The courtyard of the brother and sister is exactly on both sides of the main courtyard, so when they leave the main courtyard, one person must go to the left and the other to the right. Mao Yinxuan habitually rubbed Mao Tongtong's head, and said with a slight smile: "I will pick you up when my brother goes to the academy to ask for leave and comes back." ”

Mao Tongtong didn't dodge either, let Mao Yinxuan rub his hair up, and said with a smile on his white teeth: "Big brother, don't be too early, I want to sleep more!" ”

"You!" Mao Yinxuan smiled dotingly, tidied up Mao Tongtong's hair again, and then turned around and left.

The second day was a sunny day. As soon as Mao Tongtong opened his eyes, he lifted the curtain on the bed and saw the sunlight shining in through the window.

"The girl is awake? The eldest young master has been waiting outside for a while. Peach Blossom came over with a smile and said.

"Then why don't you call me!" Mao Tongtong snorted, hurriedly got out of bed, and shouted at the outside, "Big brother, you wait patiently for me for a quarter of an hour, I'll be fine soon!" ”

Mao Yinxuan chuckled outside, and said unhurriedly: "Don't worry, I'll be with you all the time." ”

Mao Tongtong was very useful for his eldest brother's love, and he was so busy that he went to wash up behind the screen.

"Big brother, help me choose jewelry!"

Hearing his sister's call, Mao Yinxuan smiled even more, paced in, and saw that Mao Tongtong had already combed his hair and was worried about the jewelry box.

"My sister looks good today, so let's wear this peach blossom hairpin." Mao Yinxuan reached out and took a silver base in the box, and the peach blossom hairpin inlaid with pink pearls was inserted in Mao Tongtong's bun.

Mao Yinxuan took a step back and looked at it carefully, and said, "Peach blossom with a human face." ”

"Born beautiful!" Mao Tongtong replied unashamedly.

Mao Yinxuan nodded with a smile, obviously used to Mao Tongtong's boasting.

After dressing up and having breakfast, the brother and sister went out.

Go to the jewelry shop first. After all, she was in Beijing for the draft, and Mao Yinxuan wanted to choose a better set of jewelry for her.

Yumantang is a well-known old store in Yangzhou City, and the jewelry inside is not only new in style, good in workmanship, but also a little expensive in materials. Mao Tongtong saw that Mao Yinxuan brought her here, and couldn't help whispering: "Big brother, the jewelry here is not cheap, let's go elsewhere." ”

"It's all here, let's take a look." Mao Yin Xuan said. Today, he brought out all the money he had saved on weekdays.

Knowing his brother's intentions, Mao Tongtong was moved, so he followed Mao Yinxuan in. I made up my mind in my heart, and I would definitely say that I wouldn't like it for a while, so as not to break the bank.

Beautiful jewelry has a natural attraction to women, and Mao Tongtong said in her heart that she must not be tempted, and she must not be tempted. But a pair of eyes are shining, and they are reluctant to take their eyes off the exquisite jewelry.

Mao Yinxuan also looked very seriously, pointed to the counter and said, "This magnolia hairpin with mutton fat and white jade is very good, does my sister like it?" ”

is worthy of being a brother and sister, what a soul. Mao Tongtong also happened to take a fancy to this hairpin. But she also knew that the price of the best mutton fat white jade was also expensive, so she looked at it twice and said, "Brother, I don't like magnolia flowers, let's take a look at something else." ”

Mao Yinxuan glanced at her, felt sorry for her sensible, and said in a low voice: "Sister, don't worry about the silver, since my brother brought you in, he is naturally prepared." ”

Although he is not very old, he is steady and never does things that he is not sure of.

Mao Tongtong was about to find another reason to push this matter over, when he saw four people suddenly enter the door.

The man at the head was about the same age as Mao Yinxuan, wearing a royal blue robe, with a pure face and a sense of nobility. He was followed by three people, one of whom was slightly shorter than the man and followed closely with a respectful expression, while the other two looked at the people in the shop with solemn faces.

The shopkeeper of Yumantang was also well-informed, and when he saw this man, he hurriedly came up to greet him. The man bowed his head slightly, not knowing what he had said, and the shopkeeper invited him into the private room on the second floor with a smile on his face.

"Look at this shopkeeper happy, there is a big wrong." Mao Tongtong whispered to Mao Yinxuan.

Mao Yinxuan's face was a little serious, looking thoughtfully at the background of the man going upstairs.

"Big brother, what's wrong?" Mao Tongtong asked.

Mao Yinxuan shook his head and said, "It's okay, let's continue." ”

Seeing that the eldest brother didn't want to say, Mao Tongtong didn't bother to ask, looked down at the hairpin twice, and still pulled Mao Yinxuan's sleeve and said, "Big brother, let's go, I want to go to another house to see." ”

"Tongtong, don't save money for your eldest brother." Mao Yin Xuan said.

"Big brother, I'm running for the election, why do you wear such good jewelry. You'd better wait for my wedding! Mao Tongtong continued to persuade.

"You're so shameless." Mao Yinxuan said helplessly, but he also knew that what she said was reasonable, and decided not to buy it first.

The two agreed and prepared to leave, and the man who had just gone up to the second floor happened to come down as well. The shopkeeper followed behind with a happy face, and then looked at the two jewelry boxes held by the short man who followed behind him, and knew that he had bought a lot of money.

Because Mao Tongtong and the siblings were by the stairs, the man noticed it when he went downstairs, and looked away with a faint glance. Directly past the two of them and out of the shop.

The man's somewhat arrogant attitude made Mao Tongtong can't help but slander in his heart: "It's great to be rich, stupid to be wronged." The shopkeeper doesn't know how much the price has been raised! ”

Mao Yinxuan looked at the man's back and frowned again, and had a faint guess in his heart.
