Pei Daozhu picked up the teacup and took a sip to hide his embarrassment.

She quietly raised her eyes and met Xiao Xuance's gaze.

There was a bit of coldness and a bit of sarcasm in the sight, and the meaning of humiliation was self-evident.

She avoided his gaze, put down the teacup elegantly, and said to Lu Ji: "In another twenty days, it will be the triennial Flower God Festival, and the girls in Jiankang City want to play the God of Flowers." I don't know if Brother Lu has a favorite candidate for the god of flowers? ”

The Flower God Festival is the most important festival of spring in the southern country.

In order to celebrate the blossoming of spring and pray for the peace of the country, a sensational street parade ceremony is held every three years.

The court selects the right person to play the role of various gods and ghosts, and the role of the god of flowers is the most important, she will step on the top of the sixteen white horses to pull the float and dance solo, all the way through the crowded Jiankang City, not only the attention of the public, but also a supreme honor.

In previous years, the girls who played the god of flowers were all married to a good family.

Pei Daozhu also thought carefully.

Lu Ji met her clear and bright eyes, and felt a little more pity for her.

He said seriously: "If you talk about grace, there is no other girl in Jiankang City who is better than Sister Daozhu." If I had to choose, I would definitely choose Sister Daozhu. ”

Pei Daozhu's cheeks were slightly red: "Second Brother Lu likes to joke with me." Although I have the heart to fight, my family is ordinary and I can't afford to buy expensive dance dresses. Even if you want to fight, I'm afraid you can't fight for others......"

"What's so hard about that?"

Lu Ji was willing to help her, and said softly: "Today, the chess club is resting, I will take you to the street to buy a dress, and then buy you a few beautiful pieces of jewelry." My sister should be a proud phoenix bird, and she shouldn't be buried. ”

Pei Daozhu bowed his head shyly, and his smile was even bigger.

And what better way to boost feelings than shopping?

Although Second Brother Lu just regarded her as a younger sister, when choosing a skirt, he would definitely notice her figure and beauty.

My Fair Lady is a gentleman, and at that time, he will be shocked to realize that she Pei Daozhu is actually a girl who can marry into the door.

She thanked Lu Ji, looked at Xiao Heng again, and said softly: "Uncle Nine is busy handling the case, and Second Brother Lu and I won't bother you." ”

Xiao Heng played with the Buddha beads and looked at her with a smile.

Pei Daozhu had a bad premonition in his heart.

Before she hurriedly dragged Lu Ji away, Xiao Heng said: "You are also at the age of talking about marriage, what kind of system is it to pull and pull with Lang Jun every day?" ”

Lu Ji explained: "Xuan Ce, we are just brother and sister-"

Xiao Heng's tone was cold: "In your eyes, she is a sister, but in the eyes of others, what is she?" She will be seen as a woman who clings to glory and wealth. Ziji, you have always been thoughtful and meticulous, why are you so reckless today? ”

The study was silent.

Pei Daozhu's heart was dripping blood.

is worthy of Xiao Xuance, these words seem to care for her, but in fact, they cut off the possibility of her and Lu Er's brother shopping alone!

He's going to push her to the brink!

Lu Ji was even more speechless.

What Xuan Ce said was reasonable, he only cared about taking pity on Daozhu's sister, but he forgot that people's words were terrifying.

Xiao Heng twisted the Buddha beads: "The murder case has been handed over to his subordinates for investigation." I have nothing to do today, so it is better for me to accompany her to buy a skirt. “

When Lu Ji heard this, he was immediately overjoyed: "Xuan Ce, I misunderstood you in the past, and I thought you disliked Sister Daozhu." I didn't expect you to be strict with her, but you actually love her very much. You are meticulous and proper, and I am really not as good as you. ”

Pei Daozhu's face was expressionless.

Love her heartily?

It's clearly a different picture.

……

Jiankang City.

The smoke willow painting bridge along the Qinhuai coast, the uneven people's houses, the shops and vendors are lined up one after another, and the people come and go from south to north rubbing shoulders, which is very lively.

Jewelry shop.

Pei Daozhu hadn't visited this kind of place for two years, looking at the dazzling eyes, she couldn't help but show her liking, the ring of white jade agate, the round bracelet of jade, and the golden step of the flower branch trembling, all of which made her love it.

She took the rhombic bronze mirror and tried on a golden step shake.

The girl in the mirror has a hibiscus flower face, with a swaying embellishment, which is even more extravagant.

In the future, when she dances, her steps will be shaky, and she will definitely look good.

The shopkeeper praised: "The girl is born beautiful, this step is too glamorous and too ostentatious, no one else can wear it, only the girl wears it to look good." ”

Pei Daozhu is modest on his lips, but he also thinks so in his heart.

She looked at Xiao Heng expectantly: "Is it good-looking?" ”

Xiao Heng looked at her.

Beauty is beautiful, but it's a pity that in his place, beauty is the least valuable thing.

It was impossible for him to pay for her beauty.

He pointed to the paperweight on the counter: "This paperweight is delicate." ”

The shopkeeper immediately smiled: "Yes, it is used in the study of my daughter's family, and it is carved into a rabbit with fine white jade, which is delicate and cute, especially for girls." The price is not expensive, and it is best to send it to sisters. ”

Xiao Heng said: "Pack eighteen pieces and send them to Jinliang Garden, just say that it is my first return to Jiankang City, and I gave it to my sisters as a meeting gift." Take another nineteen sets of four treasures of the study and give them to the gentlemen of Jinliang Garden. ”

That's a lot of business!

The shopkeeper hurriedly smiled and actively stocked up.

Pei Daozhu frowned: "Xiao Xuance, what do you mean?" ”

Even with her, Jin Liangyuan obviously lived in nineteen girls, but he only bought eighteen sets of paperweights......

Xiao Heng glanced at her: "That's what you think." ”

He doesn't like Bae Do-joo.

asked her not to fight Lu Ziji's idea, but she not only didn't listen, but also flattered Lu Ziji in front of him.

Such hypocrisy disgusted him.

Bae Daozhu's chest rose and fell violently.

It turned out that Xiao Xuance took her to the street to humiliate her.

Everyone has his meeting gift, but she doesn't, where can she put her face?

When the time comes, everyone will know that Xiao Jiajiulang doesn't care about her.

The girl's Danfeng eyes gradually filled with water, and she looked extremely aggrieved.

She was angry, shook Jin Bu on the case, lifted her skirt and turned around to leave.

Xiao Heng snorted lightly: "There is backbone." Now that you are gone, don't go back to Jinliang Garden in the future. ”

……

At dusk.

Pillow Star waited left and right in Xiangfei Garden, and when the crow returned to the forest, he hadn't seen Pei Daozhu come back.

The food on the dining table gradually cooled, the spring thunder rolled outside the window, and with the spring rain approaching, the sky instantly darkened, but until the garden lights rose, there was still no trace of Pei Daozhu.

Pillow Star was worried, so he first went to Wei Chaolu to ask, and then went to the courtyard of the other girls with an umbrella to ask one by one, but they had never seen Pei Daozhu either.

She had no choice but to ask to see Xiao Heng.

After all, it was Xiao Heng who her girl went to see in the morning.

Xiao Heng had already bathed himself, wearing a crane silk robe, leaning against the window and listening to the rain.

The maid reported the intention of the pillow star, and he raised his eyebrows: "Haven't come back yet?" ”

The maid said cautiously: "Pillow Star is crying a lot, and I'm very worried." Jiankang City is so big, and Pei Niangzi is a powerless boudoir girl, you leave her alone on the street, in case something happens...... I'm afraid of getting in the way of your reputation. ”
