20 Traveling in Dongshi

Since Xue Jiahui was anxious to see the dragon boat, Nie Wenxing hired a carriage and bumped all the way to Dongshi.Although it is not as lively and prosperous as the West Market, it has a special flavor. The lively market has a bit of official solemnity, because the East Market is close to the imperial palace, and bureaucrats and nobles often come here for a walk.

Today is a festive day, and Dongshi is the busiest place in Chang'an City. Visitors mainly come to watch the dragon boats, and they can also take this opportunity to buy something in the market.

As soon as the driver stopped the car, Xue Jiahui couldn't wait to jump down, and Nie Wenxing also hurriedly got out of the car, following her into the crowd.

When they arrived, the sound of gongs and drums stopped abruptly. The team's previous round of training was over, and it was time for a break. It is not yet known when the next round will start.

Xue Jiahui stared at the calm lake water in disappointment, sighed leisurely, and her bad mood returned instantly.

"Then let's go over there and have a look, let's wait while we stroll." Nie Wenxing pointed to the Quxiang in front of him.

"Okay." Xue Jiahui said reluctantly, her eyes were still fixed on the lake, why didn't she come across it.

But as soon as she stepped into Quxiang, she was attracted by the dazzling array of goods, including spices, flowered cloth, and pearl hairpins.She smiled brightly like a child, and felt novelty in everything she saw. The customs of the Dragon Boat Festival are mostly found in the south, but rare in Youzhou. colorful silk, happily pulling Nie Wenxing forward.

She stopped in front of an elegant jewelry store and looked up at the plaque: "This is Tongxinyuan!"

In the restaurant, I heard that several female family members came back from purchasing from Tongxin Garden in Dongshi, and said that the pearl hairpins here are very exquisitely made. Today, there is no reason not to look at them, so they dragged Nie Wenxing into the shop together.

Xue Jiahui took a look around the room, and Nie Wenxing also followed her steps to look at it. They were all things from his daughter's house, and he was confused by the variety of styles.

Xue Jiahui's eyes finally stopped on a silver hairpin with a jade carved red butterfly pattern. She had never seen such a style before. The head of the jade hairpin is matched with the body of the hairpin made of silver. The design is bold but ingenious, and the workmanship is even more exquisite. Said: "It's really unique!"

Nie Wenxing took a look after hearing the sound, and didn't see anything special, but Xue Jiahui blindly looked around and finally found the one, there must be something unusual about it.

Seeing Xue Jiahui staring at the hairpin, the shopkeeper said with a smile, "Miss has good eyesight. My wife was originally a palace lady, and she made a living by doing handicrafts. If you like it, you can try it on."

"Okay..." Xue Jiahui realized that she didn't bring a penny when she went out, and shook her head at the shopkeeper: "No need..."

Forget it today, it won't matter if you don't buy it... right... In the end, she pouted and looked at the hairpin, with a hint of reluctance.

But at this moment, the shopkeeper came to add fuel to the story: "Girl, do you really don't want it? Just this one, I make a unique hairpin for my wife. If you miss it, you won't have it!"

Xue Jiahui thought for a moment, then shook her head firmly.

"Do you like it? Then I'll buy it for you." Nie Wenxing asked with his head stuck out from the side.

Xue Jiahui quickly waved to him: "No need, how can I accept your gift, and I don't like it very much."

Nie Wenxing smiled lightly, never took his eyes off it and said he didn't like it, so he couldn't help but pick up the hairpin and ask. "Boss, how much is this?"

The storekeeper showed his five fingers and said at the same time, "Five strings of money."

"It's so expensive!" Xue Jiahui blurted out. In the past, when Xue Ran asked Xue Ran to pay her, she didn't mention the word "expensive", and quickly said to Nie Wenxing: "I really don't want this hairpin. I heard that the salary in the academy is very low. How dare I let you spend money."

Nie Wenxing shook his head with a smile, not paying attention to what she said, and only pointed two fingers at the store.

The shopkeeper seemed to have had some psychological struggle, and finally discouraged: "Deal!"

What deal?Xue Jiahui didn't understand what they were gesticulating, and just wanted to reach out to snatch back the hairpin and return it to the shopkeeper, but she forgot that Nie Wenxing was much taller than her, and he deliberately raised his arm to a place where she couldn't reach it even on tiptoe, so After a few rounds, the shopkeepers were all amused.

Not getting the hairpin, Xue Jiahui was about to turn around and leave, saying that Mr. Nie couldn't buy her such an "expensive" thing, but that nasty Nie Wenxing actually grabbed her shoulders and forced her back.

Xue Jiahui had no choice but to turn around, because she couldn't use force to resist a weak scholar in public.

So, she witnessed Nie Wenxing handing over two pieces of money to the shopkeeper at lightning speed, and she could only stand by and watch as he stuffed the hairpin into her hand.

But Mr. Nie, you carry two pennies (nearly [-] Wen) with you like this. Does Supervisor Liu know?Wait... Xue Jiahui calculated with her fingers, wasn't it still five pennies just now?

The shopkeeper took the money and said with a smile, "Girl, your husband is really kind to you."

Xue Jiahui was taken aback, quickly withdrew her hand, stared at the store with rounded eyes, and shook her head as soon as she recovered, "He's not my husband!"

At the same time, she repeated in her heart over and over again: Does this girl look like she has been married at this age? !This girl at this age looks like... this age...

The shopkeeper was taken aback for a moment, then glanced at the two of them with a smile: "It's not that soon."

"!" Xue Jiahui was speechless, and suddenly felt a little dizzy, why don't you understand, shopkeeper!She turned around and asked Nie Wenxing for help, only to find him by his side!side!steal!laugh!

Xue Jiahui was ashamed and angry in her heart, and two red clouds rose on her face involuntarily. She looked at Nie Wenxing angrily, but he just smiled and didn't help to defend.

"Hey! You are helping me speak, you are dumb!" Xue Jiahui whispered, and tugged at his sleeve.

Nie Wenxing put away his smile, pretending to be serious and reminded: "Listen to the sound of the gong...the fleet has started training again, let's go there quickly." Xue Jiahui thought about how to explain to the store by herself.

It was useless for Ren Xue Jiahui to condemn Nie Wenxing's back with resentful eyes, because the shopkeeper's smile became stronger, and she sighed again and again: "Oh, young people nowadays, I am really old!"

With the sound of loud gongs coming from the center of the lake, Xue Jiahui stood there dumbfounded, only to feel that a cold wind suddenly came from nowhere and blew into her heart...

When she left the store, she felt that she was not in a good mood. Within a day, she was first arranged by her brother to have a blind date with her "nemesis", and then was "permitted" to Nie Wenxing by the owner of the jewelry store at will. She couldn't be more upset .

Now she is still holding a very "expensive" hairpin in her hand, completely lost the joy when she saw it for the first time, on the contrary, she is extremely worried and uneasy. How many months' salary is this for Mr. Nie...

Xue Jiahui chased after the crowd watching the lake. Nie Wenxing didn't go far. He stood on the street looking into the distance. She wanted to walk over quietly to scare him, but she followed his gaze and saw that there was a man on the opposite side of the street. Lu Yunfei and the man in white were talking and laughing all the way, but at this moment Nie Wenxing's face was dark and unclear.

Xue Jiahui sighed: "I saw them today too. It's hard to describe the shock I felt when I saw Mr. Lu gave up being a husband so quickly. Alas, finding a good family to marry has become the only way out for a woman Is it..." She smiled self-deprecatingly, she was also walking on this road, so how could she have the confidence to accuse Lu Yunfei.

Seeing Nie Wenxing's disappointed expression at this moment, and recalling the intimate behavior of the two in the tea garden, Xue Jiahui suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, and she could see the clues even if she didn't understand the relationship between children.

So, she deliberately asked: "Mr. Nie, do you want Mr. Lu to return to the academy?"

Since he didn't want to go back to the academy by himself, as for her, Xue Jiahui chose this question to ask, secretly competing with herself.

Nie Wenxing didn't answer, and said in silence for a moment: "Let's go to the lake and have a look, so as not to miss it again."

He didn't need to answer, the reluctance was already written on his face, even a fool could understand it, not to mention that she, Xue Jiahui, was not stupid.

I just gave her a hairpin, and took advantage of the word "husband", but when I turned around, I was fascinated by the way Lu Yunfei kissed me with others. Xue Jiahui was indeed a little bit sour, but she also reacted indifferently to Nie Wenxing Very dissatisfied, he clearly cared about Lu Yunfei, such an evasive attitude of turning a blind eye and avoiding talking about it made people very irritated.

"Stop shopping, I'll go to her!" Xue Jiahui left Nie Wenxing and walked to Lu Yunfei's side, halfway there, Liu Aotian suddenly appeared and blocked her way.

"Mr. Liu?" Xue Jiahui was puzzled.

"I'm here to look for you." Liu Aotian glanced at Nie Wenxing and said with a smile, "Mr. Nie, you are here too."

Nie Wenxing nodded slightly, his expression became even worse.

"Mr. Nie is sorry, Xue Jiahui is going to follow me." Liu Aotian turned to Xue Jiahui and said, "Come with me to see your second brother." Before Xue and Nie could respond, he pulled Xue Jiahui He left, and when he came, he saw Xue's carriage waiting at the intersection of Dongshi. It turned out that they had been following Xue Jiahui secretly after they came out of the restaurant.

Nie Wenxing immediately understood his intentions, and quickly stopped in front of them: "Mr. Liu, I don't think Xue Jiahui should return to the academy."

"But as a teacher, I will not give up any student." Liu Aotian did not give in.

Hearing this, Xue Jiahui's eyes lit up, she bowed to Nie Wenxing and said, "Mr. Nie, Jiahui will leave first, thank you today." Then she followed Liu Aotian into her carriage without looking back.

Although she has no confidence in her heart, if there is a chance to persuade her second brother to allow her to return to the academy, even if there is only a glimmer of hope, she will fight to the end, but her complaints towards Nie Wenxing are even deeper. If he doesn't allow her to go back, she will go back even more.

Nie Wenxing stood where he was and watched the carriage drift away, holding the folding fan even tighter in his hand.
