Abandoned Women: The First Secret Service Concubine

Chapter 51 I Really Have You
It turned out that when others were sympathizing with the young man for his kindness and softness, she saw a glimmer of joy in the young man's eyes.He immediately understood in his heart that this is not a bully master, and he is not as gentle as he appears on the surface.However, there is no need to point it out. After all, the stuff in this cloth shop is really good, and the young man can be regarded as honest. Neither party suffers, but it is a win-win situation.

The two walked out of the cloth art street, and then walked to the powder clothing street.In the past, the Feng family seldom came here, so Feng Yao didn't have the slightest impression in her memory.

As soon as I stepped in, I felt a little dazzled. I saw countless shops densely packed on the two-foot-wide street.There are all kinds of dazzling colors, which are everywhere, and even the whole street is filled with a faint fragrance.

In the shadows beside the street, there are also some small stalls, some propped on the table, some directly spread on the ground, displaying all kinds of gadgets that girls like.

"Hey, where are you going?" Su Xingyan saw Feng Yao walking towards a small stall in the shadow of the roadside, reached out to pull her sleeve, and said: "These small stalls are not very interesting, the things are very rough. I Take you to a shop, the jewelry sold in it is exquisite and ingenious, I'm sure you like it."

Feng Yao turned around, but said with a smile: "I just bought some gadgets for my little niece, not those exquisite and expensive ones."

Song Qiaoer is only seven years old, and she is a girl from the countryside. It's not that Feng Yao is reluctant to buy expensive things for her, but even if she buys them, she will probably be locked up by the Wu family.In order to avoid falling and knocking, Song Qiaoer must lock it until she says she is married.Therefore, Feng Yao did not intend to buy expensive and valuable items from the beginning.Pick two simple and beautiful little things that are not afraid of losing or falling, and just turn around to make the little girl happy.

As he said that, he had already walked to a stall under his feet, and bent down to pick it up in front of the stall.

"Sister, what do you plan to buy? Sister, here are hairpins, hairpin rings, makeup powder, earrings, rings... What do you like, I will pick it for you?" The stall owner is a middle-aged woman. When guests come, greet them warmly.

"I'll just take a look." Feng Yao's eyes quickly scanned the stalls, but she didn't see anything desirable, so she got up and walked to the next stall.

Su Xingyan didn't give up yet: "What about yourself? What don't you buy? I see that the hairpin on your head is old, why don't you get a new one?"

Feng Yao couldn't help being startled, and raised her hand to touch her bun.Su Xingyan's words were very tactful.These days, she has been using a black wooden hairpin to tie her hair.It is said to be a wooden hairpin, but in fact there is no texture and it is not hard enough. It is estimated that most of them were made by the Feng family in the past.Being mentioned by Su Xingyan, I was a little moved.

"Come on, I'll take you to the shop I mentioned just now..." Su Xingyan was a little happy to persuade Feng Yao, and pulled up Feng Yao's sleeve and walked in one direction.

"Wait!" Feng Yao pulled back her sleeves, shook her head and said, "Don't worry, I'll take a look at these small stalls." Standing in front of a stall, she picked up a pair of red paint Openwork mahogany bead drop earrings.I saw that the beads of the earrings were only the size of a fingertip, they were bright red, they were hung on silver hooks, they dangled, but they were smart and cute.She looked at it and liked it very much, so she asked the stall owner, "How much is this?"

"This lady has good eyesight. These are earrings made of century-old mahogany, and the hooks on them are silver. I don't want more from you, but you can take thirty cents." The stall owner was a thin man. , the eyeballs rolled back and forth, very agile.

Feng Yao was a little amused, bargaining is a must everywhere, so she said, "Five cents."

"What?" The stall owner was stunned. "This hook is silver, and this wooden bead is made of centuries-old mahogany. Feel it, it's smooth and round. How can it cost five cents?"

Su Xingyan was originally worried that Feng Yao would be cheated, but he was a little dazed when he heard that she had chopped off five cents.When I was selling snails just now, why didn't I see her take out this copy of the book?

He didn't know that Fengyao's bowl of snails could only be sold for five liang of silver, but because of her lip service, she got 100 liang of silver, which is already very treacherous.

"You said it was a century-old peach tree, and I said it was a year-old peach tree seedling. Who can tell clearly?" Feng Yao raised her eyebrows and shook the earrings, "Besides, this hook is so thin that it will break if you pull it. , How much money does it cost?"

Isn't it just asking for a lot of money and paying back the money on the ground?In the previous life, when Feng Yao went to the night market with her girlfriends, the stall owners on the whole street were afraid of them. Every time they came, they would look bitter and wanted to push them away but dared not.

The stall owner touched his nose: "Forget it, I think you are a little lady, so I don't want more from you. You can just give me 25 yuan. Oh, really, the little lady is very good at bargaining." Vice Fengyao is too good at bargaining, he seems to have lost a lot.

Feng Yao didn't speak, but just lowered her head, looked at the earrings in her hands, suddenly shrank her hands, and exclaimed: "Oh! Why is this bead not polished smooth, and there are thorns on it? It just pricked my hand! "

"What?" Su Xingyan was startled, grabbed Feng Yao's hand without thinking, "Let me see?"

The movement was so loud that the stall owner was frightened and looked over nervously. If he really saw blood, it would be really bad luck.

Feng Yao was caught by Su Xingyan's hand, and her hair was covered with black threads. She just wanted to say that the bead was not polished smoothly, and wanted to use it to bargain, but she was not really tied.But seeing that Su Xingyan was so nervous, it didn't feel good, so he pinched the bead hard, and a red mark was made, showing the stall owner: "Look? You just said that the polishing is smooth, but you are fooling me. He also asked me for thirty coins, and told me to give you six coins at most."

The stall owner was glared at by the tall Su Xingyan at this moment, feeling a little apprehensive, waved his hand and said: "Forget it, forget it, ten coins, you can take it."

Just as Feng Yao was about to agree, suddenly Su Xingyan said: "No, this bead pierced my sister's hand, eight coins, no more!"

Although he was wearing the boy's clothes, he was really tall, and with his big eyes staring so wide, the stall owner was really a little scared, and said repeatedly: "Okay, okay, eight yuan is eight yuan."

Feng Yao paid the money, wrapped up the earrings, and went to the next stall.

Just after walking for a while, Su Xingyan poked his head over: "How is it? Did I perform well just now?"

Feng Yao raised her head in surprise, only to see Su Xingyan winking at her, she couldn't help but "puchi" and smiled: "It's really you."

"That is." Su Xingyan raised his eyebrows proudly.

The two of them walked like this, and visited a few stalls, and finally Fengyao bought another sandalwood hairpin with plum blossoms carved on it, and spent 25 Wen.

Su Xingyan originally wanted to ask her to buy another silver hairpin inlaid with red agate. According to him, it was a rare and exquisite item at the stall.But when Feng Yao asked the price, she wanted two taels of silver, and she immediately waved her hand to say no.Su Xingyan didn't understand: "It's not that you don't have money, why don't you buy it?"

Feng Yao shook her head and said, "It's not that I can't afford it, it's that I don't need it right now."

She is still just a little peasant woman, living in a place where people drool when eating a bowl of meat, how can she afford such a hairpin?Some people saw it, and I was afraid that it would be thieves at night.Said, put away the plum blossom hairpin, and walked back and forth.

Behind him, Su Xingyan quickly took out a piece of broken silver with lightning speed, and put the silver hairpin inlaid with red agate into his bosom.After walking out of the Zhifen Clothing Street, Feng Yao walked towards the vegetable market, and when she looked back, Su Xingyan was still following, she couldn't help being surprised: "Aren't you going back?"

Su Xingyan said: "Anyway, I won't be able to help when I go back, it would be more enjoyable to go shopping with you."

Feng Yao has some dark lines, she has never seen a man so keen on shopping: "Then it's up to you."

Su Xingyan smiled brightly, and stretched out his hand to her: "Let me carry the basket for you."

"No, there's nothing inside, it's not heavy." Feng Yao replied.Su Xingyan couldn't help but reach out to unload her small pannier.Feng Yao was stunned for a moment, and said sincerely: "You are really a good person." In modern times, you can be called a gentleman.

He didn't think there was anything wrong with going shopping with a young man whom he had just met for a long time.In her heart, Su Xingyan is a very good person, just like Shopkeeper Wen of Wuyou Building, he is a person worthy of association.

The two walked all the way to the vegetable market.It was almost noon at this time, and the vegetable market was very crowded.Feng Yao didn't feel anything, but Su Xingyan took the lead and walked in front to clear the way for her: "You walk behind me, don't be squeezed."

Feng Yao was a little ashamed, she just felt that the bowl of snails was really worth it, and she actually tricked such a sincere and good person into working for her.

"Go buy some salt first." Feng Yao saw a salt shop, patted Su Xingyan's arm behind her, and pointed in the direction of the salt shop.

"Okay." Su Xingyan nodded in response, opened the way ahead, and led Feng Yao to the salt shop.

In the salt shop, table salt is divided into several categories.The cheapest coarse salt is [-] Wen a catty, and the finer white salt is [-] Wen a catty.Feng Yao couldn't help being speechless, no wonder ordinary people couldn't afford it.

"Pack me two catties of coarse salt." Feng Yao picked out a piece of broken silver from her bosom and handed it over.

"What do you eat coarse salt for?" Su Xingyan frowned, "This coarse salt is almost the same color, and it doesn't taste good. You have to smash it up before you can eat it. Isn't it troublesome?"

Feng Yao's actions in the Wuyou Building caused a strange deviation in Su Xingyan's perception of her: Feng Yao was definitely not born in a poor family, even if she dressed simply, she was just In order to prevent people from coveting, in fact, she must have lived a very delicate life.

It has to be said that Su Xingyan's intuition is quite accurate, Feng Yao really can't live a hard life, and even if she can live a hard life, she is reluctant to let Doudou suffer.

"I didn't buy this coarse salt for eating." Feng Yao took two catties of coarse salt and put it in the basket.

"It's not for food? What's that for?" Su Xingyan asked in surprise.

Feng Yao smiled and said: "I can't tell you now. However, if we still have a chance to do business, you will definitely know when the time comes."

Afterwards, he entered another tea shop: "Give me two catties of tea."

Su Xingyan was shocked again: "Sister, what are you buying tea for?" She was very puzzled, she clearly had a lot of money on her body, why did she spend money like this?

Feng Yao paid for the tea, put the tea leaves in the basket, and said, "My tea leaves are not for drinking tea."

"Then what did you buy it for?" Su Xingyan was at a loss.

Feng Yao smiled slyly: "After a month, we will see for ourselves."
