Chapter 209 Parrot Girl
Ye Wanqing smiled and suddenly raised her chin.

Chu Anlan felt heat on his lips, and just as he was about to close his eyes, Ye Wanqing suddenly pushed him away: "I will help the prince change his clothes, and then we will go to the market together.

I have never seen a morning market in my life. Have you seen one, Prince? Is the morning market interesting? "

Her eyes sparkled, clearer and brighter than lake water.

Chu Anlan's romantic thoughts were washed away: "The folk morning market is very interesting. I went there when I was in Beijing. Ye Chenxi has also been there. He walked and ate all the way. It seems that there is nothing in the world that he doesn't like to eat."

As he said this, he couldn't help laughing.

Ye Wanqing also laughed: "Big brother has always had a good appetite and is not very picky about food, especially he loves meat."

"It's a pity that I couldn't bring him along this time, haha..."

Chu Anlan smiled very happily.

Ye Wanqing couldn't help laughing: "The prince would be happier without him, right?"

Chu Anlan took out clothes from the suitcase and said, "The maid chose a dark blue brocade robe for me today. This color really makes me look whiter.

Hey, my skin is fair to begin with. If I put on this dress and stand under the sun, won’t my skin be so fair that it reflects light?
By then, everyone will be busy admiring my beauty, how can I sell vegetables?"

As he said this, he secretly glanced at Ye Wanqing. Coincidentally, Ye Wanqing was also looking at him.

Chu Anlan: "Hehe..."

The heat on Ye Wanqing's face subsided a lot, and she smiled lightly: "Well, the prince is indeed extremely handsome. If he stands in the market, passers-by will be unable to walk."

"Why do I feel like you're teasing me?" Chu Anlan put his robe on crookedly.

Ye Wanqing couldn't help but think of their first meeting at the Imperial College.

That day, the prince was checking the academic performance. All the other royal family members had arrived, but he was late. He had his belt tied haphazardly and his high ponytail was combed crookedly.

Ye Wanqing chuckled and stood up: "Let me tie up the prince's hair."

After a cup of tea, the two held hands and got off the pleasure boat.

Mo Yan looked at the long dark blue hairband floating behind Chu Anlan and was slightly surprised: "Did I take the wrong jade crown?"

"I didn't take the wrong one, I just can't use it." Chu Anlan stood tall and straight, with a smile on his face: "Qing'er said that I look better with a hairband than with a jade crown!"

After saying that, he turned around and asked: "Doesn't this headband suit me very well?"

The silky long hair was tied into a high ponytail with a dark blue headband, and the black and shiny hair cascaded down from the top of the head.

The morning breeze blew by, and the hair and headband were blown up by the wind, light and agile.

Ye Wanqing likes him like this.

Fresh and full of youthfulness.

She shook her clasped hands lightly and said, "Sir, let's go."

Chu Anlan smiled brightly: "Let's go!"

The group went to the market in a carriage.

In the morning, the city of Lin'an was shrouded in a hazy fog, with distant green mountains looming in the distance and the lake covered in mist.

The city is indeed filled with the smell of fireworks.

Lin'an in the early morning has more life than Beijing.

Along the way, there are small stalls selling all kinds of breakfast, some selling steamed buns, some selling wontons, some selling porridge and cakes, some selling noodles...

There are many small tables and stools next to the stall, where customers are sitting and eating breakfast.

Chu Anlan lifted the curtain and asked from time to time: "Qing'er, do you want to eat wontons?"

"Qing'er, would you like some fish porridge?"

"Qing'er, would you like to drink lotus root powder?"

"Qing'er..."

Ye Wanqing's mind was full of "Qing'er".

She answered Chu Anlan's questions patiently.

Don't eat.

Don't drink.

……

The wheels rolled over the ancient bluestone bricks and stopped outside the market. Ying Xiang opened the curtain and asked, "Princess, there are many people in the market today. Do you want to wait for the prince in the car?"

"Qing'er, come with me." Chu Anlan jumped off the carriage: "I am so beautiful, and my wife is not around. What if I am spotted by a bandit and kidnapped?"

Qianxi couldn't help but: "Pfft..."

Seeing Chu Anlan turned his head towards her, she immediately said, "I just saw a lot of people queuing up on the street to buy fish balls. They smelled so good. I'll go buy some for the princess to try!"

After saying that, he ran away.

Chu Anlan snorted, turned to look at Ye Wanqing and smiled: "Let's go."

Ye Wanqing nodded.

The woman selling vegetables had been waiting at the entrance of the market for a long time.

Next to her were two guards dressed in casual clothes.

Seeing Chu Anlan, she looked him up and down and said, "Your servant went to my vegetable garden before dawn and picked six baskets of vegetables for me.

They said, can you help me sell them?
I only sell two baskets of vegetables a day, and you picked three days' worth of vegetables at once. Are you sure you can sell them all?"

Chu Anlan put his hands on his hips, full of confidence: "Don't mention six baskets, I can help you sell sixty baskets!"

The vegetable seller asked, "Can you figure out the bill?"

"Who are you looking down on?" Chu Anlan said, "Just wait, I'm very good at math! I guarantee I won't make a single cent wrong!"

"What if I'm wrong?" the woman asked.

wrong?

Chu Anlan rolled his eyes and said, "If I'm wrong, I'll do farm work for you for three days for free!"

The woman immediately stood up: "Deal."

Six baskets of vegetables were carried into the market by servants.

The market was crowded with people.

On the roadside, you can see fresh fruits and vegetables, including cabbage, celery, cucumber, spinach, etc.

In addition to vegetables, there are also many fruit vendors. The most popular fruits are peaches and grapes.

Going further in, there are stalls selling pork, chicken, duck, goose, live fish and shrimp...

Various flavors mixed together, coupled with the noisy clamor, piece together the vivid fireworks of life.

Ye Wanqing quite likes this feeling.

The small vendors in the market all have fixed stalls and are usually supervised by someone to avoid disputes.

The vegetable-selling woman’s stall is about ten meters away from the market entrance.

There are vegetable sellers everywhere nearby.

As soon as she arrived, a sarcastic voice came from the side: "Hey, isn't this the parrot lady? She used to come here at dawn every day to occupy the place, but today she came later than anyone else. It's really strange."

The vegetable seller, who was called "Parrot Lady," said, "Someone helped me sell vegetables today, so I came a little late."

As she spoke, she called on the guards who were selecting the vegetables to place them at her stall.

The sarcastic woman choked up and said, "Where did you find such a group of young and strong men?

Judging from her clothes and appearance, you didn't hire her, did you? "

"It's none of your business." The parrot lady spread a felt mat she brought with her on the ground, sat down on it, and pushed the woman away.

The woman was caught off guard and was squeezed. She almost stumbled. She said "bad luck" and slapped her sleeves to move away with a look of disgust on her face.

The parrot lady didn't even look at it, she started to spread the mat and put out her dishes.

Entrance to the market.

After Chu Anlan finished eating the last fish ball at the small table, he stood up confidently: "Qing'er, I'm going!"

Ye Wanqing raised her eyes to look at him: "If there is anything you are not sure about, just ask Granny Hua. She may seem to have a bad temper, but she is actually a good person."

"Got it." Chu Anlan flexed his wrist, looking very comfortable with it: "I graduated from the Imperial College. Selling vegetables is no big deal."

After saying that, he called Mo Yan to go to the vegetable stall.

Ye Wanqing watched him go.

Qianxi asked in a low voice: "Princess, aren't you worried about the Crown Prince? Six baskets, several kinds of vegetables, can he really handle it?"
