Chapter 13: The Auction of Hairpins (6)

It was evening, and the warm orange sunlight pierced through the eaves of the umbrella and fell on the peacock feather hairpin, leaving a small light on the hairpin.

Miyato instantly held his breath.

Jiang Ning showed a rare gentle smile, "This palace knows everyone's inner desires, so I specially went to the concubine Niangniang, asked for a peacock feather, and made this hairpin with my own hands. ”

Seeing that the crowd was still looking at the hairpin in her hand with an obsessive expression, Jiang Ning's gentle smile gradually solidified on her face, she flicked her fingers, and after a muffled sound of "bang", the box closed in response.

Everyone looked up at her as if they were waking up from a dream.

"Niangniang, you only have a hairpin, there are so many of us here, how can we divide it?" In the crowd, a palace maid dressed in yellow asked with a distressed face.

"This mother's hairpin made by herself, the slave doesn't dare to wear it." A little eunuch with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks leaned over and retracted his head.

"Wouldn't it be priceless if the mother did it herself!" An old eunuch's eyes widened instantly.

As soon as this sentence came out, everyone present instantly covered their money bags with a painful look on their faces.

Jiang Ning blinked at the crowd, and Zheliu nodded in understanding.

Her neck shrunk, and she said in a sharp voice, "The peacock feather that Niangniang personally went to the concubine Niangniang to ask for, we can't live up to Niangniang's wishes!" ”

Lu Feng hurriedly nodded in response, "Yes, yes, this is not an ordinary hairpin, this is a hairpin carrying the blessing of Guanyin Niangniang!" ”

As if thinking of something, a flush quickly climbed up Lu Feng's cheeks, instantly staining his ears and neck.

His voice lowered a little, "If I have this hairpin, Zheliu may be willing to marry me." ”

Zheliu was slightly stunned, she subconsciously looked in the direction of Lu Feng, and the eyes of the two were caught off guard and collided with the crowd, and the lightning was flint and flint.

Zheliu quickly retracted his head, lowered his head, and a shy smile appeared on the corner of his mouth,

Soon, the noise of the crowd drowned out the couple who were secretly sending Qiu Bo.

Jiang Ning put down the board at the right time, "This palace understands what everyone wants, tomorrow, at the same time, this palace will be here with everyone to bid for this hairpin." ”

The palace maid in yellow scratched her cheeks with some puzzlement, "What is the auction?" ”

"To put it simply, everyone is free to bid for this hairpin, and the one with the highest price wins." She tilted her head and smiled slightly, "The starting price, one or two silver." ”

At this time, Zheliu had recovered from the shyness of being confessed, she supported her face with her hands and looked at Jiang Ning expectantly.

"Wow, Niangniang is really sympathetic, such a low price, I'm afraid that the pearls on the hairpin are more than this bit of silver."

"yes, yes, even if it is ten times more, it is perfectly acceptable." The crowd hurriedly responded to him.

"Niangniang is really sympathetic."

"Having a master like Niangniang is really a blessing for slaves."

"I'll have to go back and get the money ready."

"Thank you, mother."

"Thank you, mother-"

Jiang Ning nodded contentedly, holding the wooden box in his hand, and waved his hand at the subordinate, "That's all for today, let's disperse first." ”

The workers seemed to realize that they were taking advantage of their work to join in the fun, and hurriedly rushed back.

The crowd dispersed, the cups and plates were in disarray, Lu Feng began to consciously lift the broom to clean the ground, and Zheliu began to clean the melon seed shells she left behind by Jiang Ning's side.

"Mother, the slave doesn't quite understand."

At this time, Jiang Ning was humming a little song and was cleaning up the low stool that the palace people had sat on.

"Huh?"

"You've talked about this today, why don't you just sell the hairpin?"

Jiang Ning folded the low stool in his hand, reached out and touched the wooden box in his arms, and smiled contentedly.

If nothing else, she should be holding this hairpin to sleep tonight.

"The really rich people haven't come yet."

She said.

——

Day 2.

The entrance of the cold palace, the corner of the wall.

Lu Fengzheng wanted to walk towards the gate of the cold palace vigorously, but no matter how he moved forward, the willow in front of him refused to let go of the way.

This sturdy man who was eight feet tall was stunned in front of this petite girl, and he couldn't break through, so he could only plead in a low voice.

"Just let me in, I'm still waiting inside."

Unexpectedly, Zheliu looked like he didn't advance with oil and salt, and he didn't want to back down half a point when he opened his arms.

"I made it very clear, if you give me the money bag on your body, I will let you go."

Lu Feng was helpless, he really didn't know what to do, but he still said to Zheliu in a good voice

"It's not that I don't want to give it to you, it's just that I'm not paying a lot of money now, I'm afraid that you will dislike me, so I'll save more for you, okay?"

Zheliu clasped his hands on his chest, and his expression had a bit of an aggressive taste.

"You know I didn't mean that!"

The dispute between the two continued, and at the main gate of the cold palace not far behind them, Jiang Ning was holding a doorway in his hand, leaning on the door frame and watching the two of them pull with interest.

The palm-sized apple is half gone in a blink of an eye.

has been in the cold palace for a long time, but she is used to the flirting and scolding of the two of them, and even thinks that it is a good choice to just watch and pass the time.

Before the time to tell the story arrived, palace people kept coming to the door of the cold palace with chairs and tea.

As soon as Jiang Ning ate half an apple, the courtyard in front of the cold palace was already full.

Jiang Ning took the last big bite of the apple fiercely, and walked in the direction of the two of them with the apple core.

In the face of making money, big things have to be put aside first.

She walked behind Ori Liu and stood about an arm's length away, tilting her head to think about how to speak.

At this time, Zheliu had already given up communication, and was pulling Lu Feng's money bag to his side.

And Lu Feng was worried that he would accidentally hurt Zheliu during his resistance, and he was holding the money bag vigorously, his face distorted.

"Okay, Changfeng, give it to her."

Hearing these words, the pulling movements of the two froze suddenly, and they turned their heads to look at Jiang Ning behind them.

Zheliu smiled, looking a little embarrassed, "Niangniang, why are you here." ”

"The noise between the two of you is so loud, it's hard to think about it." Jiang Ning was helpless to talk, "You don't care about so many guests in this palace, there are so many people who come and go and quarrel in front of them, and others don't know what to say in private." ”

Zheliu quickly lowered his head, and his face turned red and blue.

"Okay, Lu Feng, you can give it to her." She played with the apple core in her hand, "This palace believes that the willow girl is not an unreasonable person." ”

Lu Feng looked anxious, "But Niangniang!" ”

"You believe in Hongu."

Jiang Ning didn't say anything more, Lu Feng untied the money bag on his waist when he heard the sound, and handed it to Zheliu, "I just wanted to surprise you." ”

Lu Feng's voice was as thin as a mosquito and fly, and it happened to fall into the ears of the three people present.

Jiang Ning is not an uninteresting person, she took the apple core and turned around to leave.

When he turned his head, he collided with a tall figure.

She looked up, but saw Mu Jingzhao looking at her with a gloomy face.

Jiang Ning's mind hadn't yet run, but his mouth had already made a sound first, "Yo, what kind of wind blew you here." ”

The tone is extremely yin and yang.

Mu Jingzhao didn't laugh angrily, his eyes fell on the apple core in Jiang Ning's hand, and he looked down at his clothes again, "Concubine Ning, that's how you welcome me?" ”
