After rebirth, the Prime Minister's wife married the living devil

Chapter 11: Wild Geese Visit the Night Market

The next day, to celebrate the eradication of bandits and the recovery of the looted goods, Boss Qian paid for a troupe of actors to set up a stage and perform, and he spent lavishly to have the performance last the entire day.

Small vendors responded to the opportunity and set up stalls all around the stage, making the place as lively as a large gathering.

It was a rare day off for Mr. Lin. His wife had been in a low mood recently and he had been eating a lot of leftovers. In the evening he took the opportunity to take his wife and daughter out for some fun.

"It's a pity that Xia Xia had to go to Yin's house early in the morning, otherwise our family would be together."

Mother Lin said sourly, "You haven't even left home yet, and you're already away from home every day. If you really enter the Yin family, will you still recognize who your parents are?"

"Okay, Mei'er, don't be angry with your daughter. You finally get to go out, so just be happy."

When Lin's mother heard her maiden name, her face instantly turned red and she twisted her husband's arm fiercely, "What are you saying in front of Zhizhi? You have no shame!"

Looking at the two red clouds on her mother's face, Lin Yanyu said with a teasing smile: "My daughter didn't hear anything."

Then, she pointed ahead and said, "There seems to be a painting and calligraphy stall ahead. My daughter wants to go take a look, so she won't accompany her father and mother."

It was a rare occasion when her parents had time to come together to promote the relationship between the couple. She didn't want to be so inconsiderate and be the one who spoiled the mood.

After agreeing on a meeting place with her parents, Lin Yanyu walked straight to the calligraphy and painting stall.

Compared to the popular food and gadget stalls, the calligraphy and painting stall was empty. The stall owner had a book covering his face and was dozing off on a recliner, bored.

Lin Yanyu lifted her skirt slightly, bent down, and slowly looked around the bookstall.

Today, she happened to hear her father talking about Shui Jing Zhu. The famous mountains, rivers, lakes and streams described in it aroused her great interest.

However, after searching for a long time without any results, I wanted to give up and get up to leave.

The book that the stall owner was using to cover his face suddenly fell to the ground. The title of the book was clearly written in large characters: Water Classic Notes Volume 1.

The stall owner opened his sleepy eyes and saw Lin Yanyu standing in front of the stall. He immediately jumped up with enthusiasm.

"Miss, do you want to buy some books and paintings? I have a complete supply and guaranteed quality. I'm not exaggerating, there is nothing in the entire Yunlong Town that I don't have."

Lin Yanyu was startled for a moment by the stall owner's overly enthusiastic attitude. She pointed at the Shui Jing Zhu that had fallen on the stall and touched the two cents of silver she had saved from selling embroidery in her sleeve.

He asked slowly, "Excuse me, how much money does this Shui Jing Zhu cost?"

"Miss, you have good taste. This is the last copy. I will give you a preferential price of three taels of silver."

Lin Yanyu looked at the stall owner's three fingers, her eyes dizzy, and said weakly: "It's so expensive, sir, can you make it cheaper?"

"Miss, this is really not cheap. Look at the texture of the paper and the words. This was copied by Mr. Wu from the county before he passed the imperial examination. There are also illustrations in it."

Lin Yanyu looked at the exquisite illustrations with envy, touched the two silver coins in her pocket, and finally said with regret: "Forget it... I don't..."

"Plop" a few pieces of silver rolled to the stall owner's feet.

"Master Shuihong, please wrap this book for this girl. I will pay for the book."

When Lin Yanyu saw the person coming, she was so scared that she turned around immediately. Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief when she found that her parents were no longer there.

"Li Yanqi, what are you doing? I don't want this book anymore, sir."

But the stall owner didn't listen to what Lin Yanyu said. He picked up the silver coins on the ground, put them in his mouth and bit them, then immediately put them in his sleeves and said happily: "Thank you, thank you, good luck to you."

Li Yanqi took the wrapped book from the stall owner and handed it to Lin Yanyu beside him.

Seeing that the other party had no intention of extending his hand, he couldn't help but wonder: "Isn't this Shui Hongzhu the one you want?"

"I want it, I'll buy it myself, and..."

Lin Yanyu took a deep breath and said, "This book is called Shui Jing Zhu, not Shui Hong Zhu."

"I call it Water Something Lord, I only know you want Water Red Lord."

"It's Shui Jing Zhu!" Lin Yanyu could no longer bear it.

"Okay, okay, auntie, the water classics are here, the water classics are here."

As he spoke, Li Yanqi poked Lin Yanyu's arm with the book and said, "Take it."

Lin Yanyu got angry when she saw his expression, and turned around and walked away, saying angrily, "I don't want it, you bought it yourself, so you can keep it."

"Hey, hey, hey!" Li Yanqi followed with a few big strides, "If you don't want this book, I'll take it home and use it as toilet paper."

Lin Yanyu paused for a moment and said with bated breath, "You bought it anyway, so what do you want to do with me?"

"You are not such a wicked person, are you? You want me to spend three taels of silver to buy this kind of toilet paper for pooping?"

Lin Yanyu was so angry at this nonsense that she almost died, "I didn't ask you to buy it!"

"Then I bought it because you wanted me to. I don't care if I don't want toilet paper that poops my ass like this."

"What do you want?"

"How about this, I'll give you this Shui Hongzhu who even wipes people's ass, and you give me all the silver you have to make up for my loss."

Lin Yanyu resisted the urge to throw the silver at Li Yanqi's face, took out the silver from her sleeve pocket, spread out her palm and said, "But I only have two coins, I'm afraid it's not enough."

"How about this, for the rest..." Li Yanqi pretended to be embarrassed, "Just give me this book by Shui Hong as compensation."

Without waiting for Lin Yanyu to refuse, he continued, "If you don't agree, I will tell others that you asked me to use Shui Hongzhu to wipe my ass."

"You!" Lin Yan said anxiously. She wanted to argue with him, but seeing the crowds of people around, she was afraid of attracting attention and did not want to bother with him any more.

"Okay, I promise you."

He snatched the book from Li Yanqi's hand and turned to leave.

"Hey, hey, hey, you haven't told me yet! There is no teacher who takes tuition but doesn't teach students."

Li Yanqi said, regardless of Lin Yanyu's reaction, he pulled her to the shadow of a willow tree a few steps away and said, "Wait for me, I'll be back soon."

In just a dozen breaths, Li Yanqi came back and handed her the fox half of his hand, while also taking the evil ghost half with him.

"Put it on so that no one knows who you are."

Lin Yanyu was a little hesitant at first, but after hearing what he said, she finally said nothing and took it.

"Let's go for a walk."

Lin Yanyu, wearing the fox half-face, opened her pink little mouth in surprise, and looked at the ghost half-face in confusion, "Didn't you say you wanted to listen to Shui Jing Zhu?"

"When has Lord Shui Hong ever stopped listening? Today is the day to celebrate my capturing the bandit leader alive. I'd be missing out if I don't take a good stroll."

"But I have already made an appointment with my parents to meet by the stage at 10:00 p.m." Lin Yanyu said helplessly, "Li Yanqi, I really can't stay for long."

"It's still about an incense stick's time before the hour of Xu. That's enough time. Besides, County Magistrate Dong and Boss Qian are going to have a banquet at the Yingke Residence, and I have to show up there later."

As he spoke, Li Yanqi showed disdain on his face, "Tsk, I really don't want to see those idiots, so boring."

Lin Yanyu was so frightened that she immediately looked around and whispered, "Keep your voice down!"

"What are you afraid of? Come on, play with me."

After saying that, he took Lin Yanyu's hand and headed towards the crowded place like a fish swimming into the sea.
