Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

Chapter 370 Take off the veil (one more)
The profiteer Ji Wuyan listened to the soaring prices amidst the hustle and bustle of voices, and slowly leaned back in his chair. At an angle that no one else could see, he aroused Ning Xiuyuan's fingertips in a good mood, and shook them gently. Akira, opened his mouth.

Ning Xiuyuan spent all his time watching her coaxing himself, his eyes under the bamboo hat were bright, but the voice he said was still a bit tasteful, "What did you say? I can't hear you clearly."

Ji Wuyan gritted her teeth, cast a reproachful look, and slowed down even more, her words were serious, but her voice was low and almost drowned in the crowd.Even so, Ning Xiuyuan felt that those three words were pleasant to the ear, like the sounds of heaven.

What she called was, "Third Brother..."

With soft coquettishness, she plucked at the heart in her chest like a feather, itching, making people feel uncomfortable and unable to stop at the same time.

Really anxious and tormented.

However, this little girl shyly backed away as soon as she finished yelling, fleeing far away as if avoiding suspicion, her eyes dodging, trying to hide it, she just refused to look this way.

However, it is gratifying that the little girl is willing to coax herself like this.Ning Xiuyuan shook his head and laughed, and slowly leaned against the back of the chair. Wherever he looked, he happened to see Bai Xing looking straight at him, and his eyes were really complicated.

Ning Xiuyuan pondered for a moment, then raised his chin, gestured towards the backyard, got up and left.When Ji Wuyan was about to ask him where he was going, out of the corner of his vision, he saw that Bai Xing had also got up and was heading in that direction.

The second floor is still in contention.

Forty-two thousand, forty-three thousand, forty-five thousand, the last three pieces of shark yarn are bundled and sold, and the mask of hello, me, hello, everyone is torn at once. There was a fight for a room, but the imperial concubine didn't come over in person, and the people below didn't dare to climb too high, for fear that even if they got it, they would be scolded if they went back.

In the end, 8000 taels, the shark yarn fell into the hands of Queen Bai.

The door of the private room was opened from the inside, and a woman wrapped in a large cloak stepped out from inside. The nun who was asking the price bowed sideways and called out in a low voice, "Ma'am."

She waved her hands and looked down, with one hand covering the hood of the cloak, covering half of her face.

Even so, her identity has been revealed.It's just that she didn't want to reveal her identity, so everyone just pretended not to know, lowered their heads and didn't look up.

The queen looked down, and after a long while, she called out, "Miss Ji... My wife has the opportunity to buy these four pieces of shark yarn, and I also want to thank Miss Ji for selling the treasures at the bottom of the box. I also had a relationship with Miss Ji before. After a few encounters, the lady's character, I like it very much, but after a long time, I still don't know what the girl looks like... Today, I don't know if my wife is lucky enough to get a glimpse of her beauty through the sale of 8000 taels ?”

Four horses of shark yarn, 8000 taels, is really a good idea.

The queen didn't intend to embarrass Ji Wuyan, her mother likes this girl, and Mrs. Ning is also very optimistic about it, she doesn't look at the monk's face, but also at the Buddha's face... But, the little girl is too treacherous, and it is not a mistake for a businessman to seek profit. But when the abacus hit him, it was somewhat unpleasant.

Forcing her to take off her veil in public today is also a wake-up call.

After the words fell, the boisterous voice in the lobby gradually rose, "Yes, yes! Take it off, and you are not a stranger. Wearing a veil all day long to show people is really a bit of a stranger."

"That's right, Miss Ji. What we like is your piano sound. Even if you live up to your name, it doesn't matter. We are old acquaintances..."

"That's right! Otherwise, you took off your veil on the walk and we don't know each other when we meet, how bad it is..."

Chaoyun's face changed slightly, and he looked at Ji Wuyan, who shook his head slightly at her.

Most of the people present were women, not to say that they were really curious about Ji Wuyan's appearance, a luthier who wore a veil all day, almost subconsciously made people think that she should not be very beautiful.They booed, but they cooperated with the "Madam" on the second floor.

Fortunately, it was prepared early in the morning.

In fact, Ji Wuyan has always known that this veil of hers is not a long-term solution after all. As the bond between herself and these people deepens, there will always be some people who persuade herself to take off this veil out of curiosity or even out of good intentions. .It's not that you can't refuse, it's just that if you refuse too much, it will inevitably make people curious.

And curiosity... is sometimes the starting point for doubt.

This veil should indeed be taken off...

Ji Wuyan got up slowly, and bowed slightly in the direction of the second floor, "Ma'am, you are serious. Wearing a veil is just because you are a bit dwarfed by the clouds of beauties. I really don't want Madam to say that... Madam wants to see it." Just pick it without salt. However, the posture of the willows is really nothing to look at, madam... as long as madam is not disappointed."

After finishing speaking, she tilted her head slightly, and her fingertips reached her ears.

The booing stopped suddenly, and everyone looked at Ji Wuyan intently.

Although there was a suspicion in her heart that Ji Wuyan's appearance should be average, but her eyes were really beautiful, a pair of affectionate eyes, the kind that would seduce people.It's really hard to imagine, what a pity it would be to have such a pair of outstanding eyes on an ordinary face...

Although Ji Wuyan moved slowly, he did not stop, took off the veil gently and simply, shook his head again, brushed the broken hair on his forehead behind his ears, then looked up to the direction of the second floor, and called, "Ma'am. "

A face with clear soup and little water, without makeup, under the light, there is a sense of massiness that is forgotten when you turn around.

However, those eyes are so beautiful that it makes one's heart palpitate. Under the corners of the eyes, there is a little bit of bright red cinnabar, just like weeping blood, enchanting and unforgettable.

It really is a face with a strong sense of disobedience, who wouldn't be amazed after seeing it, and then regretted it?There were sighs and sighs, but Ji Wuyan seemed unaware of all this, calmly nodding slightly and sitting down, no different from before.

The queen stood by the railing and did not speak.What Ji Wuyan looks like, she is actually not interested at all.Good-looking, or not good-looking, will not involve your own interests.

It's just the feeling of this fist hitting the cotton.

She wanted to warn Ji Wuyan one or two times, and also wanted to make things difficult for Ji Wuyan, letting her know that Yanjing City was under the emperor's feet, and merchants like them were not allowed to act willfully.

But until now, the queen vaguely felt that Ji Wuyan didn't seem surprised at all, saying that she took off the veil because of the pressure from her own side, it might be better to say that Ji Wuyan was going to take off the veil early in the morning ... With the 8000 taels of silver, Ji Wuyan made a lot of money, and he got back four horses, but he was not half happy.

It's really a little... not very pleasant.
