It was only a moment of effort, Zhou Ang withdrew his gaze, looked doting, looked down at the rouge box in Zhou Zihe's hand, and said something to her with a smile.

A gaze lingered on him for a moment, then withdrew slightly.

Obviously, for some special attention, this girl has far more sensitivity and insight than ordinary people.

And Zhou Ang is obviously not a mirror.

In the "field of vision" shown in the mirror, even if Zhou Ang stared at her eyes recklessly, she would not notice it in the slightest, but now, even through the hat and soft veil, Zhou Ang's gaze at her was a little longer, and she was immediately aware of it.

It's just that, like she now looks like just a normal ordinary boudoir lady, Zhou Ang, who is hanging out with the family to buy things, really can't see the slightest wrongness.

At best, it was just a little extra glance from a strange man at a slender woman.

The difference may only be that Zhou Ang is more handsome than most of the men who have paid attention to her.

Zhou Ang's family had already finished buying things and paid the bills, and they were about to go out at the moment, while the two masters and servants of the Lu family had just entered the door, so the two sides quickly passed by.

Even, because this is a store specializing in selling rouge gouache, everything is missing, but it is impossible to lack the aroma of fat powder on the woman's body, so in the moment of passing by, even the things you smell are the same.

It's a little less amazing than expected.

In fact, Zhou Ang only saw her once that night, through the "vision" of the mirror.

The deepest impression she left on Zhou Ang was undoubtedly the calm temperament she showed when facing Li Ming, and her strong aura that was not afraid of danger - this is really rare for a young woman.

It's just that because of his father's violent death and Li Ming's escape, the matter fell into the sand for a while, not only Zhou Ang, but the entire official practitioner system then adjusted the direction of attention, of course, Zhou Ang couldn't rely on the help of the mirror to do anything to peep into people's private affairs - not to mention that she was a girl.

But the impression that the original scene brought to Zhou Ang was too deep, which made Zhou Ang's evaluation of this girl quite high in his heart, so he met it by chance on the street at this moment, and he couldn't help but subconsciously pay some attention.

Strictly speaking, the two people don't actually know each other.

But even so, after going out, Zhou Ang couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart.

Her clothes are visibly plain and conservative, of course, because her father is newly mourning and she is mourning, but shouldn't the mourning woman be honestly at home?

She actually came to buy rouge gouache?

Of course, regardless of whether you are married or not, there has never been a requirement that women are not allowed to use any rouge gouache during the mourning period, as long as they are not dressed up to show off their blind waves, even if they are the most strict moral gentlemen who look at these things, they will not be unkind to these things.

Besides, girls, using rouge gouache is not the same as makeup, in fact, this is also a kind of skin care method in this era, not to mention girls, many men still use it.

But...... My father just died for half a month, so he personally ran out to buy rouge gouache, no matter what he said, Zhou Ang still felt a little disobedient.

It's not that there is anything wrong with this matter itself, it's just that this incident appears on this girl, which will make Zhou Ang feel very disproportionate - as far as Zhou Ang's feelings are concerned, this girl's temperament decides, and she doesn't seem to be a person who does this.

However, there are still many secrets in the Lu family of Zhanzhou.

So Zhou Ang couldn't help but subconsciously fall in love.

Seeing that coming out of the rouge shop, the Zhou family's big purchase on this trip, even if it is basically over, just looking at Zhou Zihe's meaning, I still want to continue shopping-"Brother, let's just go around, don't buy anything else, okay?", Zhou Zihe said.

But Zhou Ang said with a smile: "Of course it's okay to go around, but I still have some things to go to other places, you either go home, let's come back next time, or you can only go shopping by yourself." ”

"Hmm......" Zhou Zihe's little mouth suddenly pouted.

The money bag is gone, saying that it is only shopping and not buying, but it is really going to only go shopping and not buy.

Of course, her mother Zhou Cai also has money in her hands, but just now when she bought something, she kept talking, saying that it was too extravagant, and the family situation was just getting better.

But she still wanted to go shopping - she couldn't buy it this time, so she wrote it down and went back and secretly told her brother.

However, before she could speak, Zhou Caishi had already spoken: "It's okay, it's been a short time since I've been shopping, it's time to go back, if you have something to do, go and busy yours, let's go back by car." ”

Zhou Ang responded with a smile.

Helpless, Zhou Zihe consciously spent a lot of money today, it was okay when she had her brother's support, as soon as her brother left, she suddenly felt that she was not courageous, and she didn't even dare to say anything to beg, holding a few things of her own, she followed and lowered her head and got into the car, Zhou Ang told Lu Chunsheng a few words, and then watched the carriage leave here.

And he turned his head to another shop, deceived and left, and also asked the store about the price, but his eyes were always staring at the rouge shop diagonally opposite—this was a long time, and he changed the fourth shop to inquire blindly, and finally saw the eldest lady of the Lu family come out with the maid.

However, both were empty-handed.

And they did not immediately get into the carriage parked outside the shop, but went east to a few shops and into a shop selling fabrics.

"Hang out, relax?" Zhou Ang pondered in his heart.

And the next actions of the master and servant seemed to confirm his judgment - they did only shop and did not buy, and each shop went in for a short time, but when they came out, they were empty-handed.

Seeing that it was almost noon, the master and servant, after visiting three or four shops, finally got into the carriage, and the servant who drove the car quickly left the street with a whip of his horse.

Zhou Ang never knew how many shops came out, stood on the street, sighed, wanted to go into the shop she had visited to inquire a little, and felt that she didn't want to startle the snake, so she decided to leave the professional work to a professional person to do - this is Sogo, the place with the largest flow of people in the entire Lingzhou City, and the informant of the county Zhu Yamen here is of course indispensable. So, you don't have to do it yourself.

So, he turned around and went in the direction of the yamen.

If you don't go, you may miss the lunchtime meeting.

However, he had just arrived on the street where the county yamen was located, and from a distance he saw a man standing on the street in front of the yamen, basking in the sun.

But it was the tooth man I found when I was going to buy a small yard and a shop two days ago.

He ran quickly at this time, smiled before speaking, bowed his waist, saluted first, and then said: "The villain came from your mansion, and no one answered when he came to your mansion to knock on the door, thinking that he was not at home, so the villain came to wait outside the yamen, and sure enough, he waited for the official." ”

Zhou Ang was surprised and asked him, "You are so anxious to find me, what's the matter?"

Naya said: "Returning to the official, this is such a thing, didn't you just buy a shop a few days ago? The villain came to you to ask, are you willing to sell? Someone is willing to pay a high price!"

Zhou Ang nodded first when he heard this, and then he was a little surprised.

This is three days ago, after he entrusted this tooth man, the other party quickly helped him find a store willing to sell in Sogo, something happened at home, and he was in a hurry to make a move, but it was with a lease deed, which will not expire until the end of next year, in fact, Zhou Ang is not very satisfied.

But in any case, the façade of Sogo Fang has not entered the market for circulation, and the opportunity is suitable and the price is right, so Zhou Ang still accepted it. For this reason, he took out most of his savings, as high as nine hundred and fifty taels of silver, enough to buy twenty or thirty acres of fine ripe land in the countryside.

But for Zhou Ang, even though he couldn't even collect the rent for a year and a half after he bought it, this transaction was still very cost-effective - because the rent of this shop was 25 taels of silver a year, and if you calculated, it was a 2.5% rate of return, which was already quite a high rate of return on assets in this era, and it was still much more cost-effective than buying a field to collect rent.

You know, this is an asset that makes money while sleeping, and in this society, unlike the great business development in later generations, there are not many good investment opportunities.

He thought about going back and saving some more money, and then found a shop to buy, and the two shops together could bring about fifty taels of silver to the family in cash a year, which was left to his mother and sister's family, even if it was about the same.

Even if you live a little luxuriously, the expenditure of fifty taels a year can be quite nourishing, and you can even save some every year.

But he didn't expect that he had just bought it, and someone wanted to buy it?

After being stunned for a moment, Zhou Ang seemed to suddenly think of something in his mind, but he was not sure, so he asked the tooth man, "Someone wants to buy my shop?

The tooth man was secretive and whispered: "You know that you have recently moved to the Lu family in Zhanzhou, right? It is the one who will mourn when you move over!"

While Zhou Ang nodded, his mind instantly lit up.

The tooth man is still talking about what a stupid big family, if he has money, he can slaughter a sum of money, at least he can sell it for more than 1,200 taels of silver, and between one out and one in, he can make Zhou Ang earn two or three hundred taels, and he will help Zhou Ang pay attention to it in the future, and if he meets the right one, Zhou Ang can also buy other shops, etc., etc., and so on, but Zhou Ang's mind has long been out of this matter.

He suddenly figured out what the master and servant of the Lu family were doing when they went into a shop for a long time just now, and then entered a shop for half a day!

Dare to love the family is not shopping, is quietly observing the flow of customers?

The plan for January lies at the beginning, asking for a few monthly passes to support the scene.
