Chapter 258: Good Intentions
She sighed, "Hey, that person is like this, he always likes to come out and take advantage, his daughter-in-law gave birth to a grandson as a baby, even if she provides it herself, we can't care about it, but the problem is that she has to pull us small households to provide for herself, and bring her grandson out every time, and the child will make trouble in front of someone's stall if he sees anything, and that person will take advantage of the fire to rob and ask for cheap."
This woman said a lot, and almost couldn't stop, but because she found that Qiao Qixin didn't reply, she realized that she was not familiar with this girl, and she shouldn't have said so much.
She coughed, a little embarrassed, "Anyway, don't forget to go to your heart, come out to play, have fun, don't be in a bad mood by those bad guys."
"Okay, don't worry, I'm fine." Qiao Qixin looked at the woman in front of her with a smile.
The woman nodded, "Cheng, then I'll go first, my stall is next to me, if you have anything to greet me, I'll definitely come over to help you."
"Okay." Qiao Qixin smiled and nodded.
She didn't take this woman's words to heart, because Qiao Qixin was sure that if someone came to make trouble, she could deal with it herself.
Georgette picked up the spoon and continued to paint the candy.
"Eh, sister, how do you sell your sugar paintings? It's a strange sight."
A well-dressed girl wearing a silver hairpin came to Georgette's stall, and the maid who followed her looked around cautiously and whispered in the girl's ear, "Miss...... The lord won't let you eat anything outside......
The girl pursed her lips and said dissatisfiedly, "Oh, come out once in a while, what's wrong with eating, I don't eat every day."
"Besides, if Daddy asks, I'll ......," the girl thought for a moment, and then her eyes lit up, "Just say you bought it, and I'll hold it for you, how about it?"
The personal maid immediately waved her hand, "No, no, I'm a subordinate, how can I, how can I let the young lady take things......
"Oh," the girl crossed her hips, a little angry and unhappy, "it's not true that you let me take it, but I just told my father that!" Really, this little favor won't help me, I don't want to be friends with you!"
The girl flicked her sleeves angrily, don't look over her head and refuse to look at the personal maid.
The personal maid looked embarrassed, and after struggling for a while, she compromised, "Okay......
"Hey!" The girl immediately put her hand down and was happy, "Sister, how did you sell this candy painting?"
With a smile on her face, Qiao Qixin stopped the sugar painting she was drawing, and looked up at the young lady, "Miss, there are fifteen copper plates for a sugar painting."
As soon as the words fell, Qiao Qixin saw that the young lady began to take out her purse, and spoke again, "Miss, slow down, my sugar painting can also be customized according to me."
"Customized according to me?" The girl was stunned, as if she didn't understand what Qiao Qixin meant.
"It's just a sugar painting based on your looks, just like these."
As she spoke, Qiao Qixin pointed to the side where she had already drawn a "sample".
"These are the examples I draw."
The girl looked at the "sample", thought about it for a while, and decided, "Good! I'll customize it myself, and I'll make it look good."
Qiao Qixin smiled, "The girl decided to do it slowly, the price of this custom is not the same as the price of these paintings."
The girl's eyes were a little confused, "How much does it cost?"
"Twenty copper plates."
"Oh, what is twenty copper plates," the girl commanded, waving her hand, "Xiao Cui, give this sister a tael of silver."
Qiao Qixin raised her eyebrows slightly, sure enough, the good-looking and rich sister will always be her favorite.
"Okay sister, sit down for a while, and I'll be able to finish drawing in a moment." Qiao Qixin smiled and put away the silver taels.
"Mm-hmm, draw me something better." The girl said seriously.
"Of course." Qiao Qixin said, scooped a spoonful of syrup again, and began to sketch according to the girl's appearance.
After a while, a Q version of the animated sugar character with this girl as a reference was drawn.
Georgette cooled herself, then put a bamboo pole on top of the sugar painting, then picked it up from the table and handed it to the girl.
The girl took the candy man, and her eyes lit up.
"Wow, that's beautiful!" The girl's cheeks were red and she looked very happy.
She put the candy painting next to her face and asked her personal maid, "How is it?" Like me? Isn't it pretty?"
"It's good-looking, Miss looks good." The personal maid praised it heartily.
The girl took the candy painting and went away happily with the maid.
Qiao Qixin blushed and looked at the backs of the two people who were far away, and said, "Miss's days are happy......
"Qixin."
Suddenly, there was a dark curtain over the head.
Qiao Qixin was stunned for a moment, looked up, and found that it was Liu Zhan who had returned.
"Huh? Scheduled?" Qiao Qixin looked at Liu Zhan with a smile and raised her hand to poke the tip of Liu Zhan's nose.
"Hmm." Liu Zhan lowered his eyes and raised his hand to hold Qiao Qixin's fingertips, "Are you tired?"
"I'm not tired." Qiao Qixin pulled her fingers out, and then stretched, "Ha-yawn, let me tell you, a young lady from a big family just came, and I drew a candy man for her based on her appearance."
"Do you know how much she gave me?" Qiao Qixin looked at Liu Zhan with sparkling eyes, "It was originally set at twenty copper plates, but she gave me one or two pieces of silver at once!"
Liu Zhan smiled and touched Qiao Qixin's head, "It's great."
"Hmph," Qiao Qixin turned her head and muttered, "One or two pieces of silver are enough for me to pay for three weeks' food, where is it just great."
Liu Zhan lowered his eyes, remembering the boastful words that Qiao Qixin had taught him before, and said tentatively, "Qixin is really stupid? The best in the world?" Chinese Net
Georgette crossed her waist and looked proud, "That's right, I'm really stupid! I'm the best in the world!"
As she spoke, Georgette turned around happily and continued to paint candy.
Liu Zhan sat on the chair behind Qiao Qixin, looking at her dotingly.
When the meal was approaching, Liu Zhan saw that Qiao Qixin was still focused on the painting table, and had no intention of eating, so he got up and went to the side to buy her a tofu flower.
"Boy, you're the girl's husband, aren't you?" The maid of the tofu flower stall said while scooping tofu flowers for Liu Zhan, "This girl is really diligent, capable, and enduring. I've been paying attention to her for a long time, and I've been covering her head and drawing."
"You are truly blessed, young man, you must cherish this girl." The woman worked hard to educate Liu Zhan.
Liu Zhan was a little confused, but he still listened.
"Your family doesn't look rich, you see that you and the girl's clothes are all torn, and there is a piece of cloth here, you take it back and make up for it."
As she spoke, the woman really took out a piece of cloth from the back of the stall and stuffed it into Liu Zhan's hand.
Liu Zhan was confused.
The woman was embarrassed to be Liu Zhan, so she forcibly stuffed the cloth into Liu Zhan's hand, and handed the bowl of tofu flowers to Liu Zhan, "This tofu flower should be invited by the lady, you don't need to give money."
"No, you may be mistaken." Liu Zhan hugged the cloth and tried to explain.
The woman only felt that Liu Zhan was thin-skinned and embarrassed, so she pushed him out and said, "Oh, young man, I understand that this beginning is not easy, we adults will be considerate of you, so if there is anything to say, there is nothing to be embarrassed about, you know?" Okay, okay, your daughter-in-law, it's time to wait, go back quickly."
As she spoke, she began to drive people away.
Liu Zhan was holding a piece of cloth and carrying tofu flowers in his hand, a little confused.
He didn't know how to refuse this enthusiastic, so he had to go back to Qiao Qixin with his things to make a decision.
On the other side, Qiao Qixin was concentrating on painting, and felt that there was a person standing in front of her, and when she looked up, she found that it was Liu Zhan.
She lowered her head and continued to paint, then she was stunned for a moment, then looked up again, and found the cloth in Liu Zhan's arms, and was a little puzzled, "What are you buying cloth for?"
Want to get yourself new clothes again? but
No, I used to make clothes with myself to pick up cloth, how could I buy it casually.
Qiao Qixin looked at the clothes on Liu Zhan's body again, they were indeed a little torn, but this was the clothes he specialized in martial arts, and there were a lot of clean and complete clothes at home.
Liu Zhan shook his head and explained, "This cloth was given to me by the woman who sold tofu brains, she seems to have misunderstood something, not only gave this cloth, but also confiscated the money for this bowl of tofu brains."
"Huh?" Qiao Qixin was stunned for a moment, then turned her head to look at the stall selling tofu brains, and found that the stall owner had come to persuade herself not to care about the pair of grandchildren.
Qiao Qixin didn't understand, could it be that she felt that she was too pitiful, so she gave herself something?
Forget it, Qiao Qixin shook her head, no matter what the reason was, she couldn't accept other people's things.
In the homes of ordinary people, a piece of cloth is still quite expensive.
Qiao Qixin took out the broken silver and stuffed it into the empty purse, then handed the purse to Liu Zhan, "Give this bag of silver and cloth to that lady."
"Okay." Liu Zhan had no objection, put down the tofu brain, and returned with the cloth and purse.
Qiao Qixin didn't concentrate on painting sugar anymore, but paid some attention to Na Xian and Liu Zhan.
"My wife asked me to return this cloth, and this purse, which contains money to pay for tofu brains." Liu Zhan put down his things and prepared to run, but was stopped by a roar from the girl.
"What are you running?" The maid picked up the cloth, put on the purse, and rushed out from behind the stall to Liu Zhan, "Take the things back! You can't take your hard-earned money."
Liu Zhan shook his head and said, "My wife asked me to send it back."
She stomped her feet and said, "You two children! Really! If you give it, you give it! Come back and do something!"
As he spoke, he glanced at Qiao Qixin's direction, then dragged Liu Zhan and whispered in his ear, "Do you know that your daughter-in-law was bullied today!"
Liu Zhan was stunned, in addition to the pair of grandchildren, did anyone bully Qiao Qixin?
Seeing Liu Zhan's appearance, she slapped her thigh angrily.
