After a simple wash, she carried the burden that Xiaoju helped her sort out and went out of the guest house, before she gave Xiaoju a pearl silk hairpin, which she bought in the jewelry store yesterday, not very expensive, better than exquisite.

Originally, Xiao Ju didn't dare to accept it, but when she heard Qian Yan say that she was leaving today, this could be regarded as a thought, so Xiao Ju accepted it and thanked Qian Yan again and again.

She has been serving in the guest house for so long, and it is not that she has not been rewarded by other guests, most of them are given some silver or leftover snacks and fruits, and this is the first time she has received jewelry.

And not in the form of a reward, not in a condescending look and tone, which made her very happy and felt that she was valued.

She had never seen such a well-served young lady, and she didn't call her once at night except for letting her take care of the washing.

Unlike other old ladies and gentlemen who came to visit, the young masters and young ladies wanted this and that for a while, and kept calling her, as if they couldn't see her idle.

If this Miss Tianyan is a small family and can't instruct people, it's not like it, just this all-round bearing, much stronger than the official lady she has seen, sure enough, people are still different.

Qian Yan didn't know that she gave a small hair ornament, which made Xiao Ju think so much, she has now arrived at Mrs. Xue's main courtyard.

I originally wanted the little maid guarding the door to report it, but as soon as the other party saw her, he directly invited her in, saying that the lady had ordered it, and Miss Tianyan came over and took her directly to the side hall for breakfast.

When I arrived at the side hall, there were only Mrs. Xue and Xue Minghua plus two children, the two young masters should have dined with their daughter-in-law and children in their own courtyard, Xue Minghua and her father should have gone to duty, I heard that the official office here works in the morning in the summer and goes home to rest at noon.

When Mrs. Xue and Xue Minghua saw her, they hurriedly beckoned her over, "Come on, breakfast has been prepared, see if you have anything you like?" If there's anything else you want to eat, let the kitchen prepare. ”

Qian Yan smiled and sat on the empty seat next to Mrs. Xue, "That's good, I like it all." ”

Mrs. Xue looked at her outfit today and knew that she was really leaving, "Are you really leaving today?" Don't have a good walk around the city anymore? This Xingtang Mansion is not small, and you can't finish shopping in one day. ”

Xue Minghua was also a little reluctant to say: "Yes, Sister Tingyan, just stay a few more days, I don't have good legs and feet, and I can't take you out for a walk."

However, my mother said that she would hold a banquet the day after tomorrow, invite the people who are friends in the city to come and get together, and by the way, tell them about the three of us coming back.

Otherwise, you will stay for two more days, and then leave the day after tomorrow and have a lively and lively life with us. ”

Mrs. Xue also persuaded again: "Yes, if you are the one who is worried about the appointment over there in Handcheng, I can send someone over to help you spread the word, and say that you will go two days later." ”

Qian Yan hurriedly refused: "No, no, I have made an appointment with others, and it is not easy to miss the appointment, and I do have some things to do, when I finish my work, I will come here to see Aunt Xue and Sister Minghua." ”

Fulai on the side said a little disappointed: "Auntie, you said that you want to teach Fulai kung fu, why are you going to leave so soon......"

Qian Yan smiled at him a little embarrassed, "I'm sorry, Fulai, my aunt is going to break her promise, I didn't expect the time to be so rushed, but you don't have to worry, I think your two uncles will also know some punches and kicks, and you can let the two uncles teach you when the time comes." ”

Mrs. Xue looked at her grandson's lost appearance and comforted her softly, "Fulai wants to learn kung fu?" Your two uncles also learned boxing and foot kung fu since childhood, if it weren't for the fact that your mother was afraid of pain and hardship when she was a child and refused to learn, she would have learned some self-defense.

It just so happens that your cousin and cousin have invited Master Wu, and now they are just starting to learn, and when the time comes, you will learn together, and after you learn it, you can protect your lazy mother. ”

Xue Minghua was a little embarrassed by what his mother said, and when he was a child, his family also invited a martial artist to teach them three brothers and sisters.

My brother and younger brother have learned very well, but she is the only one who feels hard after studying for two days, and she refuses to learn anymore, and her father and mother are not reluctant to spoil her.

In the end, he was really unsuccessful, even embroidery, in fact, he was also a half-kung fu, or because he liked to wear good-looking clothes back then, so that the embroidery girl always felt that there were shortcomings, so he learned it himself.

This is also the only place I can take, but I didn't expect it to become my own ability to make a living, if it weren't for my embroidery skills, it is estimated that Chen Jiawang would not be able to keep her until now, and she would have "died" long ago.

Alas, how did you think of that thing that wasn't human? Xue Minghua shook his head, shook off the thoughts in his head, and continued to keep Qian Yan.

It's just that she has made up her mind, and they didn't succeed in keeping her.

In the end, Mrs. Xue took out a small box from behind her and stuffed it directly into Qian Yan's arms.

Without waiting for Qian Yan to shirk it, he said: "Aunt knows that you are not short of money, and your family background should not be bad, but this is a piece of your aunt's heart, you must accept it."

Not only because you saved Minghua, but also because your aunt fell in love with you, we are all the same surname, and we will walk around as relatives in the future, and when you have time, you will come to see your aunt and your sister Minghua, okay? ”

Hearing her say this, it was hard for her to refuse.

Look at this small box, it should be jewelry, because if it is a silver ticket, there is no need to put it in the box, the box is not big, thinking that it should be at most a set of jewelry, and I didn't shirk it.

"Then thank you aunt, Qian Yan wrote it down, I will definitely come to see my aunt and Sister Minghua when I have the chance, and of course, Fulai and Huan'er."

Tilt Yan said goodbye to them, saying that it was just right for them to hurry while the weather was still hot.

Mrs. Xue and Xue Minghua stood up, and when they sent her to the door, they stopped them, preventing them from continuing to send them out, especially Xue Minghua, whose legs and feet were inconvenient, so don't toss.

Fulai and Huan'er refused, so they sent her to the gate of the courtyard only to be stopped by Qian Yan.

looked at the two children, and said to Chouchou: "Chouchou, do you have a collection of martial arts cheats?" I'm a little embarrassed that I promised them, but I broke my promise. ”

Ugly Ugly rolled his eyes, "How could I collect that thing, even Xiangxiang doesn't have this thing, what kind of Vientiane boxing technique did you learn or your parents got it by chance, that thing is of no use to us two beasts at all." ”

Qian Yan thought about it, what are the two ancient beasts doing collecting martial arts cheats.

But she still wanted to give the other party something as a souvenir, but her things were all bought here, and it didn't seem to have any special significance.

The ugly ugly gave her an idea: "You still send a dagger, don't you just send a dagger, it's an antique dagger itself, the material is much better than the current one, and you can always put it on your body for self-defense." ”

Qian Yan thought about it, so she asked Chou Chou to pick two daggers that were relatively small, one with a more delicate pattern and the other with a more generous pattern, both with scabbards, so that she didn't have to worry about hurting the child.

Pretended to take it out of the baggage and handed it to Fulai and Huan'er.

The pattern is delicate to Huan'er, the top is a Ruyi lotus pattern, the front blade is relatively sharp, and it is more labor-saving when stabbing people, which is most suitable for women.

The pattern is simple and generous, the blade is wide but extremely sharp, and it is the most suitable for self-defense.

"This is given to you by my aunt, this dagger is as sharp as clay, and it will be kept for your future defense."

"Thank you, auntie!"

"Thank you, auntie!"

Fulai and Huan'er took the dagger, still looking at her with reluctance on their faces.

Huan'er: "Auntie, you must come to see us." ”

Fulai also nodded vigorously beside him, and his eyes were full of admiration.

Although they didn't get along for a long time, and they only had two days and two nights, they were very attached to Tilt Yan and felt that she was a hero who fell from the sky to save their mother and son.

Qian Yan reached out and touched the top of their hair, well, it was washed, it was soft and so easy to touch.

"Okay, you have to practice martial arts and read well, don't seek to be famous in the future, but you can protect yourself and strengthen yourself, you know?"

The two children nodded seriously, and at this time, a young man came over with a horse leading Qianyan, and Qianyan knew that it must have been ordered by Mrs. Xue.

He took the reins and waved to the two children: "Auntie is really leaving, you take care of yourself, there will be a period later." ”

"Auntie will have a period later."

"Auntie will have a period later."

Tilt Yan led the horse towards the west side of the gate, and when she arrived at the west gate, Hou Shunzi and Er Linzi were there, and Tilt Yan also said goodbye to them before riding the horse and leaving.

First, I rode a horse to Nanshi and bought two Luo baskets, but there was no way, the ugly ones that were put into the space before were hung on the donkey cart, and let her sell them to He Linling together.

I picked the two largest ones in the stall, thought about it, and bought a coarse cloth blanket, which should be placed on the donkey and put on both sides to load things, and it is a little narrow on the horse, but it can be used improvised.

She was thinking that if she sold something else later, she could put it in there.

I bought a hemp rope that was not thick or thin, and threw the two baskets and put them on both sides of the horse, with the saddle below, and I was not going to ride the horse before going out of the city anyway, so that the hemp rope was not comfortable.

I led the horse slowly to the side of Dongshi, looked at the time, and now it is half past nine in the morning, and the restaurant should be open.

When I arrived at the restaurant, I packed six dishes, and because it took a little time, I waited for a while in the lobby on the first floor.

It took more than half an hour to make it, and it took a total of six taels of silver to connect the wooden food box of the restaurant, of which the food box was two taels.

Out of the restaurant, I put it in a basket on one side, and put the burden in it on the other side, which is two sets of clothes and a stone, just in case one side is too heavy.

I took out the small box in the bag before, found a place where no one was and opened it to take a look, I don't know what Mrs. Xue sent, she hasn't seen it yet.

It turned out that it was a set of jade jewelry, the green head was very good, there were bracelets, hairpins, necklaces, earrings, and a chain to look at the length of the forehead, it should be hanging in front of the forehead, it was a drop shape, very beautiful.

If this set is placed in the future generations, you can buy a house!

Tilt Yan likes it very much, but it is estimated that there are not too many when she wears it, and she can wear it when she goes back to take photos of ancient costumes, and when Xiaoju combs her hair in the past two days, she carefully looks at her techniques, at least she has learned the two hairstyles.

That Ling Xuan bun curls up the hair in the back, married women can also use it, you can give grandma and mother a try, grandma can't do it, because grandma has short hair, only to the chin, and when the time comes, if you want to take photos in ancient costumes, you can only wear wigs.

Tilt Yan let the ugly ugly receive the space, and put it on her body for fear of losing it or breaking it.

Then I went to the largest liquor store in the city - Zuixianzhuang.

Just by the name, you know that it sells alcohol.

As soon as I entered the wine shop, I saw a large wine jar on the ground, and the shelves behind it were also full of large and small wine jars.

This wine shop is more than three times larger than the wine shop in Handcheng before, the house is a high-ceilinged building, there are several pillars in the middle, it seems that the house is very spacious, there are windows in the front and back, and the house is very bright after opening.

Unlike other shops, the light in the house is not very good in broad daylight, especially when the door faces north, and the inside is a little dim.

There was a shopkeeper and two young men in the shop, and when they saw that it was a young girl who came in, she was dressed plainly, but she didn't show any disdain, and she came up to greet her very warmly.

"Girl, do you want to buy wine? What kind of wine do you want? ”

Qian Yan nodded and asked, "Is there bamboo leaf green wine here?" ”

The young man nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, this wine is rare, the price is a bit expensive, it costs two taels of silver a catty, how many catties does the girl want?" ”

Qian Yan: "How much stock do you have here?" I want a bit more. ”

The shopkeeper walked out of the counter when he heard this, "Girl, because this bamboo leaf green wine was a tribute wine back then, the authentic output is not very high, if there are too many, I'm afraid there is not, and I only have dozens of catties of inventory in this store." ”

As soon as she heard this, she said to the shopkeeper: Then you can give me as much as you have here, and the shopkeeper should give me cheaper. ”

The shopkeeper said to a guy next to him: "Xiaoshan, you go and take a look at the bamboo leaves and green in the back." ”

Xiaoshan sighed and went to the back.

The shopkeeper pointed to a five-pound jar on the shelf behind him and said, "There is another jar of samples on the shelf, do you want to taste it?" ”

Qian Yan nodded, she wanted to taste it to see if it was different from the one in the restaurant.

The shopkeeper took a small wine cup, filled some with a wine grape, poured it into the wine cup and handed it to Dump Yan.

Qian Yan took a sip, feeling that it seemed to be more mellow than the one in the restaurant, and I don't know if the wine is older, or the water in the restaurant.

Qian Yan looked at the shopkeeper and said with a serious face: "This wine is good, the quality behind you is the same as this, right?" If it's different, it's not okay. ”

"Girl, don't worry, I'm all the same batch of wine, and the quality assurance is the same." The shopkeeper's face was determined.
