Chapter 124
Although Yuzhou Prefecture is similar to Liangzhou Prefecture, there are still differences. The siblings had a great time shopping all afternoon and bought many things in large and small bags.
Among them was a gift for Wei Siqi. After all, this was his first visit, so it was hard to go empty-handed. Regardless of whether it was worth the money or not, it was still a thoughtful gesture.
In addition, they also bought many snacks, some of which were not available in Qingshan Town, and some were not even available in Liangzhou Prefecture.
"You don't need to eat more. Eat at most five pieces a day, one piece in the morning, two pieces each at noon and evening." Li Qingyou warned his brother, "Otherwise, you'll get cavities."
Adi blinked his eyes. In the past, when he was in the mansion, the elders in the family would not let him eat more, but they only said that they were afraid of bad teeth. This was the first time I heard about tooth decay.
"Can worms grow in teeth?" Adi looked over confusedly.
"Of course." Li Qingyou nodded, "Teeth are damaged because of worms... The worms are so small that they can't be seen with the naked eye... Shut up, if I say there are, there are."
Adi, "..."
Well, everything Sister Qingyou said is right.
In addition to snacks, they also bought a lot of cotton cloth. The cotton cloth in Yuzhou Prefecture was much cheaper than that in Qingshan County, and there were more styles.
It is natural for girls to love beauty. Li Qingyou stood in the cloth shop and could not move, looking at the brightly colored silks and satins. She felt envious in her heart. Unfortunately, she could only look at them. Her withered purse decided that she could only buy some. Cheap muslin.
"When I make money later, I will buy the best Hangzhou silk for my sister." Adi raised his little head. Just now he could clearly see the reluctance in Li Qingyou's eyes, and tugged on her sleeves. Li Qingyou was deeply moved by this. The ironing is great.
"Be good, then my sister will count on my brother from now on." Li Qingyou smiled and rolled her eyes.
The two siblings were chatting and joking when suddenly there was a burst of noise from next to them, and they looked over following the sound.
I saw a girl of twelve or thirteen years old, wearing a bright red peony cardigan with a bright red gauze skirt underneath. The fan in her hand could barely cover her mouth, but her facial features were exquisite, she was probably a pretty girl. .
At this moment, she was standing aside and watching the siblings laugh out loud, with disdain that could not be concealed in her eyes.
"It's obviously a girl's house, but you have to pretend to be a man. It's really immoral." The little girl giggled, and the sunlight outside the window shone on the golden steps above her head, emitting a fine golden light, which dazzled everyone.
Judging by her dress, she must be a young lady from a wealthy family.
It's a pity that this little girl, who is obviously quite beautiful, makes people unhappy because of her sharp and mean face. The two little maids following her also giggled non-stop and made sarcastic remarks along with their master.
"What did you say?" Adi's eyebrows suddenly stood up, and the two fierce gleams in his ice-like eyes made the little girl's heart tremble in shock, and she subconsciously took a step back.
Then she felt angry. It was really embarrassing to be scared by a little kid. They were just two unruly people. This was Yuzhou Prefecture. What did she have to be afraid of?
"Did I make a mistake?" The little girl put down her fan and scoffed coldly, "It's obvious that she doesn't know how to behave..."
"Say it again." Adi interrupted the opponent sharply, his small body slightly bent, ready to attack like a little wolfdog, ready to pounce on the opponent's throat the next moment.
At the critical moment, Li Qingyou held his shoulders, shook his head slightly at him, and suddenly smiled, "Brother, remember, if a dog bites a person, a person can't bite the dog again."
As soon as Adi turned around and met Li Qingyou's clear gaze, the anger in his eyes instantly dissipated, and he returned to being a well-behaved little puppy. He nodded in a very teachable manner, "Sister is right."
The face of the cheerful little girl who was smiling just now suddenly changed, she pointed at Li Qingyou with her hands on her hips and shouted angrily, "You are so bold and unruly. You dare to insult me. Do you know who I am?"
Who else can do this? Is it your father or a certain gangster?
There is no shortage of bullies throughout history. Li Qingyou despised the other party in her heart, but a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, "Miss, I didn't even talk to you just now, why do you think I scolded you? Isn't this asking for self-humiliation?
"
The commotion here attracted people around to watch. The little girl's face turned red, and her hand shaking when she pointed at Li Qingyou said, "You, you, you clearly mean Sang Huai."
What if she can't hear it?
This time it was Li Qingyou who chuckled and said, "Miss, there are no mulberry trees or locust trees here. I mean the dog is cursing people."
The little girl was so angry that she couldn't speak. The two maids beside her were also anxious and took a step forward to catch Li Qingyou.
Not to mention that this was Yuzhou Prefecture, a place they were unfamiliar with. Even in Qingshan County, they couldn't afford to offend the other party's outfit, so they just had to talk freely.
Li Qingyou asked her brother-in-law and ran out without saying a word. Just as they were approaching the door, they stepped out of the silk and satin shop before the two maids could catch up.
It's a pity that man's calculation is not as good as God's calculation.
This little girl not only brought two maids, but also two young boys behind her. At this moment, one of the maids shouted to the two of them, "Why are you still standing there, catch those two people quickly."
The two young boys heard the news and caught up with the siblings.
The two young men were both grown men in their twenties. They were stronger than them in terms of physical strength and speed. In addition, there were so many people on the street that they couldn't run fast at all.
Li Qingyou was worried. When she turned around, she saw that the two boys were almost catching up. Adi pointed at the alley in front and said loudly: "Sister, go over there."
As long as he gets to the alley, he can use the Lotus Sword.
Unfortunately, there were too many people around, so the alley was still some distance away, and the two boys were almost catching up.
In desperation, Li Qingyou reached out and grabbed a large handful of copper coins in her purse, and swung them behind her, "I'm throwing money away. Whoever's money fell, come and pick it up."
One stone stirred up thousands of waves, and the originally bustling crowd instantly gathered behind the two siblings. The originally not smooth road was suddenly overcrowded, blocking the two boys tightly behind them.
Li Qingyou took the opportunity and pulled her brother to run as fast as she could. She got into an alley three times and two times. After running for a while, she completely got rid of the two boys.
The two siblings leaned against the wall and gasped for air. Finally they looked at each other and burst out laughing.
"Fortunately, this is Yuzhou Prefecture. We can't stay for a day or two before we have to leave." Li Qingyou wiped her sweat and looked around.
If this was in Qingshan County, she would really have to think carefully, lest she offend someone she couldn't afford to offend.
The siblings took a moment to breathe again before starting to walk back.
It doesn't matter if you don't know the way. It's daytime now, and Yuelai Tower is the largest inn and restaurant in Yuzhou Prefecture. You can find out by just asking around.
It was not until dinner time that the siblings finally returned to Yuelai Building. They were sweating all over from running in the summer, and their bodies smelled bad.
