Chapter Twenty-Six: Stunning Beauty

The four ponies were grateful and sympathetic to the old woman, and when they left, they each quietly left behind the silver taels on their bodies, and they were all penniless at this time. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Seeing that the shopkeeper restrained his smile and looked cloudy, he seemed to be about to give an eviction order.

Murong Yuxin took out the jade pendant and put it in front of the shopkeeper, and said: "This dragon and phoenix jade pendant is carved from the best Hetian jade, and it is something that has been passed down from generation to generation in my Murong family. In addition, please make it convenient for the shopkeeper to lend me another twenty taels of silver, I don't know what you think?"

Seeing that the jade pendant in Murong Yuxin's hand was warm and delicate, white and transparent, like mutton fat, the dragon and phoenix carved on the jade pendant, the shape was lifelike and ingenious, and he knew that it must be an extremely valuable thing, so he hurriedly persuaded him: "The jade pendant is so valuable, Miss Murong should put it away, let's think of other ways." ”

Murong Yuxin said softly: "Now that we can have a place to stay, eating a full meal is the most important thing, not to mention that this jade pendant is only temporarily mortgaged here, I still have to redeem it, we still have a lot of things to do, we don't have to waste too much time on this matter." ”

Pony knows that what she said is true, sighs, and says nothing more.

The shopkeeper had already held the jade pendant in his hand, squinted his eyes and looked at it repeatedly, his mouth was full of greed.

"Alas, when everyone encounters difficulties when they go out, I will make it convenient today, and the four of you can eat and live with me with peace of mind, and I can also borrow you five taels of silver. However......" The shopkeeper looked at Murong Yuxin with a cunning look in his eyes.

"But what?"

"However, if you don't pay the bill back after three days, the jade pendant will be mine. If you think I'm harsh, go elsewhere. The shopkeeper said this, but he held the jade pendant tightly in his hand, and he had no intention of returning it.

Murong Yuxin thought for a while, and said resolutely: "Okay, but I want twenty taels." ”

"Eight taels at most. ”

Seeing that the shopkeeper looked like he was eating people and not spitting out bones, the ponies had already been on fire in their hearts, but it was "a penny that is difficult to defeat a hero", so they could only endure it. The monk had a strong temperament, but he couldn't bear it anymore and smashed his fist on the counter.

There was a loud "bang", which startled the shopkeeper. Seeing Shanyuan glaring at him with an angry face, knowing that he was powerful, the muscles on his face trembled, and he hurriedly took out a handful of scattered silver from the drawer, and said to Murong Yuxin: "I only have these eighteen taels of silver left here, so don't be embarrassed for me, girl." ”

Shanyuan raised his fist and was about to smash it down, Murong Yuxin noticed that the loud noise just now had caused many people in the restaurant to look sideways, so she quickly took the silver taels, and said: "Eighteen taels is eighteen taels, please take us to the place where we stay." ”

The shopkeeper then shouted upstairs and scolded: "Little Er, Little Er, where did you die, and you were hooked by ghosts again? Hurry up and take the guests to room No. 5 and No. 6 in the south." ”

The shopkeeper hurriedly trotted over from the back hall, bowed down to laugh, and led the four ponies to the south room.

Although the shopkeeper is mean, the room is quite well furnished and has everything available. Xiaoma, Shanyuan, and Nuan live in room No. 5, and Murong Yuxin lives in room No. 6.

Murong Yuxin didn't know what to say to the shopkeeper on the road, and rewarded him with a piece of silver, and the shopkeeper ran out in a hurry, bringing back a thin old man and a milfish woman from time to time.

The four of them were talking in room five, and the shopkeeper said to Murong Yuxin at the door: "Son, I brought you the person you are looking for, this is the shoemaker Zhang of Xifang Street and the shopkeeper of Hengfeng Silk Village of Dongzhi Street, their craftsmanship and quality are the best here, and they are also first-class in the whole Hangzhou City." ”

The shopkeeper Tong raised the silk handkerchief in his hand and said with a smile: "Little second brother, what kind of vision do you have, you are obviously a pretty woman, but you call him a son." As he spoke, the man walked in step by step.

"The second brother said that there were a few guest officers who wanted to buy clothes, and said that they would be delivered in the evening, and I thought to myself that I would tailor the clothes, sew and button, what should I not take time? Now take a look here, the figure of several people is so standard, where you need to customize, there are ready-made, I will go back to help you pick two sets of each, and ensure that you are satisfied. ”

Shopkeeper Tong looked at the monk and said with a slight embarrassment: "It's just that we don't have monk's clothes, and besides, this master is burly and needs to be made new, so I'll go back and do it and send it before dark." Eight sets of clothes inside and out are a total of six taels of silver, and I can also give the girl an extra box of rouge gouache. If you don't have any opinions, you can pay a deposit of two taels first, and I'll go back to catch up. ”

The pony looked at the clothes on the four of them, they had been going through the wind and rain for days, and they were already shabby, but Murong Yuxin was careful and asked someone to buy new clothes. She needs to get some silver as soon as possible and redeem her jade pendant.

The shopkeeper Tong took the deposit and took his leave, and then the shoemaker looked at the feet of the four people, took a tael of silver and left.

Xiao Ma asked the shopkeeper to bring food, ate some indiscriminately, told the three of them to rest and take the opportunity to rest, and then walked out, and returned when the lamp was in charge, when the shopkeeper Tong and the shoemaker had already sent clothes, shoes and socks. It seems that the shopkeeper is not exaggerating, the craftsmanship of the two is indeed impeccable, just measuring with their eyes, but the things sent are quite exquisite and appropriate.

The monk and Nuan Nuan took a hot bath comfortably and put on new clothes. The monk was drinking a sip of wine on the chaise longue, and Wen Wen was standing in front of the window with a book, both of them bored waiting for the pony to come back.

"Pony, you are too uninteresting, running out alone, causing the monk and me to nest here as a Buddha statue in the afternoon. As soon as the pony arrived at the door, the monk was already shouting.

Xiao Ma said with a slightly tired expression: "If you want to leave, who will protect Miss Murong?" Besides, isn't Brother Wen also here, you can just ask him to drink and chat." ”

"Don't mention it, scholar, three sticks can't make a fart, I held a book in the afternoon, and I didn't turn a few pages, and I didn't talk to him either 'um' or 'oh', it's not interesting. I wasn't worried about the safety of Yuxin's sister, so I ran out to play early. ”

Pony knows that the monk is a person who can't sit still, and although he doesn't hide what he says, he is a real man with responsibility. smiled at the moment: "It must be a monk who is talking nonsense there, so noisy that Brother Wen can't read the book, and he is embarrassed to talk about you." ”

"Okay, you pony, do you talk like that? Look at how I teach you a lesson today, monk. With that, he rushed over to hit the pony.

The pony quickly flashed to the side and slipped out of the way, and the two of them began to fight in the room.

Wen Wen sighed, shook his head, closed the book, and said, "The two of you are dozens of years old together, so don't play these children's tricks, right?"

Before he could finish speaking, the pony and the monk suddenly rushed over, one grabbing the shoulders and the other grabbing the feet, and lifted the warmth up. Warmth yelled and danced and struggled.

"Why are you so noisy?" Murong Yuxin said and appeared at the door.

The room lit up for a few moments, and the pony was stunned for a moment, forgetting to warm it up.

Murong Yuxin stood at the door in a plain and light cyan long dress, her hair was lightly pulled and a jasper hairpin was inserted, her green eyebrows and lips were red, her muscles were like congealed fat, her beautiful eyes were flowing, and she looked at the three people who were fighting in the room.

For several days, she has been dressed as a man, and she has changed her appearance, but now she has washed her makeup and changed back to women's clothes, which is so elegant and beautiful.

The scholar struggled down, and when he saw Murong Yuxin, his handsome face suddenly blushed.

Seeing the three ponies looking at her, Murong Yuxin was a little embarrassed, her face was slightly red, and she said, "What's the matter with you guys, look at me like a monster." ”

Xiao Ma consciously lost his temper and said: "For a few days, Murong girls have been disguised and modified, and now they have recovered their true appearance, we suddenly saw it, and we couldn't react for a while, so we lost our temper, I hope not to be surprised." ”

"Pony is right, monk I saw at first glance, I thought it was a fairy who came out of the painting, where did I think it was a sister you, forgive sins, Amitabha. ”

Wen Wen shrank behind the pony and the monk, his face flushed, his head bowed, and he did not speak.

Murong Yuxin smiled and said, "I just said that you saw the monster." Yes, Brother Pony went out for an afternoon, but what did you gain?"
