idle mistress

Chapter 198
He patted his arm, beckoning to her.

Shen Qing didn't understand what he meant for a while, and looked at him suspiciously.

Zhao Yan smiled, went to the bed, and patted his arm again. Shen Qing felt relieved when he saw this.

She obediently moved over and lay down in his arms. As soon as her head rested on his arm, Zhao Yan's hand came to her ear, pinched her ear, and kneaded it gently.

This would be different from the past, Shen Qing immediately flicked it away with one hand.

Today she restrained herself, in case she flicked her hand like this, she would annoy this person and cancel tomorrow's trip.

Thinking of this, she closed her eyes and let his hands domineering over her ears.

The man squeezed and fell asleep contentedly.

You have to know that including the days in death row, I don't know how many days I haven't seen the sun.

Shen Qing was immersed in the excitement, without feeling sleepy for a while, she moved around in the man's arms.

Until a man's hoarse voice came from above his head: "Shen Qing, if you move again, I can't guarantee that you will be able to get out of bed tomorrow."

Immediately, a hand was placed on her waistline, full of threats.

Shen Qing felt the temperature in that hand, her waist stiffened, and she didn't dare to move anymore...

"The Altair is far away, the Han girl of the Jiaojiao River, with slender hands, and the wielder. The day is not in order, crying like rain; the river is shallow and shallow, how far away it is! There is a gap between the water, the pulse is pulsating and speechless"

——Han Yuefu
The story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl spread widely in Dacheng, and gradually, this Qixi Festival became the Girl's Day.

On the Qixi Festival in Cangcheng, every household will prepare seven cups of fairy tea, and first offer tribute to the seven fairies in the sky.

After the incense, the daughters of the family will rush to drink up the seven cups of fairy tea.

On the day of Qixi Festival, every household hangs lanterns and festoons. Married women and young girls who are waiting to be returned will put on their most beautiful clothes and go out.

Some went back to their natal homes to visit relatives, and some even went to temple fairs with close friends in boudoirs.

All of a sudden, the streets of Cangcheng were bustling, sweeping away the low pressure caused by the closure of the city.

On the street, a well-dressed lady walked side by side with a handsome man in brocade clothes.

The combination of a handsome man and a beautiful woman walked on the street, causing others to look sideways.

The man seemed to have long been used to such attention, and he didn't care about the eyes of passers-by.

But the young woman was attracted by the dazzling array of goods on both sides of the street, and didn't even notice the eyes that fell on her from time to time.

The woman fiddled with the small objects on the stall, turning her head to talk to the man behind her from time to time.

The man's eyes followed the woman.

Passers-by who are not blind can tell that this noble man is completely focused on this woman.

The woman goes shopping, and the man pays the bill afterwards.

I don't know how many others I envy.

The woman was not walking fast, and it took a lot of time for the two of them to stop and go for a walk down the street.

Walking, Shen Qing was a little tired and stopped.

King Ling asked, "Are you tired? Do you want to find a place to rest for a while?"

She shook her head, turned her head, and saw a little girl not far away selling things on a street corner.

This little girl is about seven or eight years old, she came out to make a living at such a young age, so she looks very cowardly.

I don't know if she is afraid that pedestrians will walk away from her things, so she puts the goods she wants to sell in a wooden box and yells at passers-by in a low voice.

There were too many pedestrians on the street, the noise overwhelmed her voice, and the passers-by couldn't see what she wanted to sell; Shen Qing stood for a long time, but didn't see a single passerby coming forward to patronize her, the little girl's face was obviously Showing a disappointed expression.

"Let's go, let's go there and have a look." Shen Qing said.

There were too many people on the street, she reached out and held the hand of the person in front of her, and walked through the crowd towards the little girl.

Zhao Yan looked down at the hands they were holding, and for some reason, he remembered that many years ago, the two lost their way in the deep mountains, and she also walked forward carelessly holding his hand like this.

At that time, the identity of this little girl was still Zhao Fu, his slave.

Just thinking about it, the woman let go of his hand and asked the little girl, "Little girl, what are you selling?"

The little girl saw that she was well dressed and she was obviously the wife of a wealthy family, so she didn't dare to neglect her in the slightest, so she quickly opened the lid of the wooden box and replied, "It's forbidden, Madam, see if you like it."

Shen Qing looked down, and saw that the wooden box was full of banbu, this banbu is a common small accessory that girls wear around their waists, almost every girl with some qualifications has one.

Although these prohibition styles in front of me are simple, they are not repeated.

Shen Qing curiously picked up one and looked at it, the workmanship was not bad.

"You did all this yourself?"

The girl shook her head: "My mother did it."

"Then why didn't your mother come to sell it, and let a little girl of yours go to the street to sell it?" She asked curiously.

Hearing this, the little girl felt dejected, and said falteringly: "My mother asked my father to break his leg, and he was lying at home and couldn't get out..."

"what……?"

Shen Qing froze for a moment.

The little girl took a sneak peek at Zhao Yan behind her, seeing his tall and ice-cold appearance, she felt a little scared in her heart.

In the end, she overcame her fear, and cautiously said to Shen Qing:

"Ma'am, why don't you just buy one. If I can't sell these forbidden steps, my mother will be beaten by my father again."

Seeing this, Shen Qing felt a little heartbroken. She turned her head and whispered into the ear of the man behind her, "Your Highness, today is Girl's Day. As the master, should you express something?"

Zhao Yan puzzled: Huh?With a sound.

She went on to say: "Well, if you buy these forbidden steps and give one to every girl in Yeyun Courtyard, it will be treated as a holiday subsidy."

This is the first time Zhao Yan, the head of the holiday subsidy, heard of it. He knew her intentions, so he said, "It's up to you."

With his approval, Shen Qing was overjoyed, she smiled sweetly, and stretched out her hand towards him.

The smile rippling on her face was charming and charming, for a moment Zhao Yan was bewitched by her smile, and unconsciously handed over his purse.

"Little girl, I want all of your forbidden steps." While speaking, she took out a gold ingot from her purse.

The little girl had never seen such a golden thing before, and she immediately felt troubled: "Ma'am, all the bans are only worth 300 Wen, and I don't have any money to give you."

"Your wooden box is not bad, it should be very valuable, and I will buy this box for the rest."

While speaking, she handed the gold ingot to the girl, took the wooden box from the girl, and handed it to the man behind her.
