Wu Zuo Xiao Jiao Niang

Chapter 46

The marble floor is paved with red brocade, and there are vendors on both sides of the stall ten steps away. The people's clothes are more gorgeous and luxurious than those in Qingzhou and Hengzhou.

Silk and satin, special food, and handmade accessories abound.

The tall building is hundreds of feet dangerous, reaching into the clouds. This is the sacrificial altar of the Eastern Dynasty. Every year, the emperor personally participates in the sacrificial ceremony to pray for the good weather and the prosperity of the country and the people in the coming year.

They walked all the way for a month and finally arrived at the imperial city.

Xu Yanqi's father and daughter's clothes were nothing more than ordinary in the crowd, like a stone thrown into the vast ocean without causing any waves.

"Get out of the way, don't get in the way!" The carriage ahead slowly approached, and the coachman yelled.

Both Xu Yanqi and Shuangshuang were taken aback, and stepped back, but accidentally stepped on the melons and fruits placed by the roadside grandmother.

The carriage passed in front of them at a leisurely pace, and the breeze lifted the window curtains of the carriage, revealing the stunning girl inside, which was a shocking glimpse.

Xu Shuangshuang noticed the sign of Princess Nanyang on the front of the carriage, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart: Princess Nanyang is so beautiful!

The skin is white and the lips are red, and the watery eyes are like blue waves and springs.

"Who? No quality at all!" Xu Yanqi said "tsk" and complained.

Grandma picked up the trampled gourd with distress: "Oh, my melon! How can I sell it if it's trampled like this?"

"I'm really sorry, grandma, let's see how much this melon costs, we'll pay for it." Xu Yanqi apologized and was very sincere.

Someone next to me yelled: "Look at how poor you are, I'm afraid you just came to the imperial city not long ago! Grandma's melons are one or two. It doesn't look like you can afford it."

Xu Shuangshuang was not convinced, so she turned around to look for the troublemaker, and saw that he was dressed as a butler with a gloating face, and she immediately became angry: "You can afford it, but you should buy it! We didn't mean to trample on Grandma's melons." , why are you talking sarcastic here?"

The quality of the people in the imperial city is really not good!
Grandma watched them first arrive in the imperial city, and she had no intention of embarrassing her: "You trampled on three of my melons, and you can pay me a couple of bucks."

Three melons and three liang?
Xu Yanqi and Xu Shuangshuang were dumbfounded. Could it be that what the troublemaker said was true, that these melons really need one or two?
"Why melons are so expensive, grandma, don't bully us because we are ignorant goods from other places!" Xu Shuangshuang was furious, seeing that this grandma is in her seventies and eighties, and she is still cheating like others!One or two melons, she really dared to say that!
"This is the gourd melon that Beili paid tribute to. I planted it successfully through hard work. Naturally, it will be more expensive!" Grandma refused to give in. These melons were planted by herself. If the melons were trampled, it was too late for her to feel distressed. It's cheap until they don't do it on purpose.

"Nonsense, the gourd melon that Beili paid tribute to, the flesh inside is golden yellow, and the flesh is clearly white. This is an ordinary gourd melon." Xu Yanqi had seen the gourd melon from Beili before, when Shuangshuang was still very young, She was very weak, and someone told him that Beili's gourd melons could be used as medicine, which was good for recuperating the body, so he took Shuangshuang all the way to Beili to eat gourd melons.

"Have you ever eaten Beili gourd melon? Don't talk nonsense here!" The middle-aged man in the housekeeper's costume made it clear that he believed in grandma, and dismissed Xu Yanqi's words.

Xu Yanqi couldn't get used to his petty appearance, and pointed fingers at him: "I haven't eaten it, so have you? You are no different from a woman, what's the intention of provoking you openly?"

Is it the same as a woman?Wen Teng's eyes widened: "You are no different from a woman, you are a woman!"

This is like the sight of a dog being stepped on, which made many people around burst into laughter.

Wen Teng glared at them, and immediately no one dared to laugh at him.

He angrily helped Granny up: "Old Madam, we will not sell this melon today. This man is deliberately looking for trouble, let's go to the Yamen to sue him!"

Grandma didn't resist when she was supported up, Xu Yanqi and Xu Shuangshuang realized for a while that they knew each other and were still a family.

"You guys are obviously scammers! Just go to the yamen, who is afraid of whom?" Xu Shuangshuang was not convinced, did these two people think that everyone around them was fools?

"This is the old lady of the Wenfu, but Yipin Gaoming Madam, the Yamen will not punish her." Someone next to him said something.

The old lady of Wenfu?Mrs. Yipin Gaoming?
Now it was the turn of Xu Yanqi and Xu Shuangshuang to make a mistake.

This is on other people's territory, so you don't have to think about whether you bow your head or not!

They are newcomers, so they can't just offend local snakes, right?
What bad luck!Xu Yanqi pulled out three pieces of silver from her pocket and put them in front of Grandma: "It's our bad luck!"

Grandma was not happy now, and grabbed Xu Yanqi: "Tell me clearly, why are you so unlucky? You are lucky to be able to buy the gourd melon that I planted by myself! Although I am not golden meat, but my It tastes better!"

"I haven't eaten it either, so you can say whatever you like." Xu Yanqi wanted to break away from the old lady's hand, but the old lady was pulling his sleeve, what kind of decent is that on the street?
Xu Shuangshuang was also a little at a loss. This old lady is so old, she doesn't look easy to get along with, she started it rashly, don't wait for the old lady to say she did it again!

As soon as Xu Yanqi touched Grandma's pulse, she frowned: "Grandma, you'd better find a doctor as soon as possible to show you, you are sick."

The qi and blood stasis was severe, and seeing that Grandma's lips were turning purple, it was obvious that she didn't get a good rest every night.

"Why are you still cursing our old lady? Our old lady is in very good health, and it tastes delicious!" Wen Teng pushed Xu Yanqi with his hands.What a sinister villain!
Only grandma straightened her face, looked Xu Yanqi up and down: "Are you a doctor?"

Xu Yanqi let go, even if he was a doctor, he didn't want to treat such a disrespectful person.

"If you don't speak, you will acquiesce. Okay, then you. You come back to the house with me, and I will have someone cook gourd melon for you to eat, and you will see a doctor for me." When Mrs. Wen said this, she was full of anger. There was no sign of her being ill.

Xu Yanqi was about to refuse, but Shuangshuang quickly pulled her clothes.

Shuangshuang whispered into the foster father's ear and said, "Don't refuse the foster father! Go back with her, and we will just solve the problem of where to stay tonight!"

Makes sense!
So the father and daughter followed Mrs. Wen back to Xiao's house.

Xu Yanqi started to talk slowly along the way, and Xu Yanqi changed his opinion of Mrs. Wen little by little.

"The princess of Nanyang just now came back from Beili recently. She used to be a hostage in Beili, but she is used to being arrogant in Beili." Mrs. Wen had a relationship with the princess of Nanyang once, and she was not narrow-minded. People, I just hate the rudeness of Nanyang Princess.

"Girl, help me!" Mrs. Wen waved to both of them as soon as she finished talking about Princess Nanyang.

Afraid of being mistaken for not respecting the old and loving the young, Xu Shuangshuang hurried forward to take the old lady's hand and hold her firmly.

Xu Yanqi took the old lady's words: "Beili respects women over there. If she grew up in Beili, no wonder she has such a personality!"

The old lady gave him a sideways look: "You know Beili quite well. It seems that you have really been to Beili and eaten the gourds from Beili."

"Hey!" Xu Yanqi said with a sneer, "My daughter was in poor health when she was young, as long as it is good for her body, I will go and get it for her."

Speaking without intention, the listener has a heart.Xu Shuangshuang has always known that his adoptive father loves him more than his own.
