Chapter 233 Entering the Provincial City (2)
Yao Shanbao said: "This is the master. If Jun Shen comes to you and asks you where I am, you must not tell him."

"why?"

Yao Shanbao clasped his arms on his chest, walked around, and muttered, "I'm going to participate in the competition, but the most important thing is not to get a ranking. Of course, winning the competition is the best thing, but the most important thing is to win the competition." , I still want to see how much real talent I have learned. In short, Master, I have something to say to you now, so please do me a favor, and I will benefit from you later. "

"That's all." Fang ignored and waved his hands, and said, "You young couple must have quarreled, anyway, my old man can't care about it, as long as my old man has meat and wine every day."

Yao Shanbao grinned and said: "When I return to my hometown in fine clothes, Master, you must have money for wine and meat."

Fang ignored and touched his beard, his eyes gleamed, and swallowed hard by the way.

After Yao Shanbao took the documents representing Anping County to Qizhou for the competition from Fang Wushi, he went shopping.She knew that someone had been following her in secret all the time. Although it was said that Zhang Junshen specially sent someone to protect her, she always felt that being stared at by people like this was not free at all.

After thinking about it, Yao Shanbao decided that he had to get rid of this group of talents.

He still has the twelve taels of gold given by the Xiao family last time. Of course, the county also gave a sum of money when he represented the county to participate in the competition in the province.

After buying some daily necessities, Yao Shanbao walked around to a stall selling mirrors.

The bronze mirror was sold in front of the stall by an elderly woman. When the woman saw a customer coming to the door, she immediately said: "Girl, buy a bronze mirror. Our bronze mirror is of good quality and cheap. Only ten coppers."

Yao Shanbao didn't care to listen to what the boss said. He only heard the boss say ten copper coins. He gave her ten copper coins.

The rouge gouache seller next to me saw it, and started to sell it: "Girl, you look so juicy, there should be many young men coming to ask for marriage, right? Hehehe, this woman still needs to be maintained. You can buy some of our family's rouge." Well, the rouge from our old Qin family is cheap and good."

Yao Shanbao held up the bronze mirror, seemingly looking at himself in the mirror, but in fact he was secretly sizing up the people behind him.

Hearing that the rouge gouache seller recommended rouge to her, she had an idea, and asked with a smile: "Then how much is a box of your rouge? If it's cheaper, I'll buy a few more boxes. My family has a lot of sisters."

"Yo, it's cheap and cheap, how can it not be cheap." The young woman selling rouge laughed so hard that she lost her eyes, she picked up the most expensive ones and took a few boxes, handed them to Yao Shanbao and said, "Girl, you can use this kind of rouge. Make sure your little face is tenderer than that of a peeled egg!"

Yao Shanbao didn't even look at it, took it directly, threw it into the cloth bag on his back, and asked, "How much is it in total?"

Seeing that Yao Shanbao was so happy, the young woman selling rouge kept a smile on her face, and slowly stretched out five fingers: "It's not expensive, a total of fifty copper coins."

Yao Shanbao was surprised: "So expensive?"

The young woman said: "If the girl thinks it's expensive, how about this, I'll make it cheaper for you." She gritted her teeth, stomped her feet, and stretched out four fingers, "Forty copper coins."

"Thirty copper coins." Yao Shanbao bargained casually.

The young woman said: "Girl, if you sincerely want to buy it, you can give me a sincere price. Thirty is really too little. How about it, I see that girl, you look so cute, so I will be more cruel and tell you How about 35 copper coins? It can’t be less, this is a small business, and we won’t be able to eat any less.”

Yao Shanbao didn't make any further counter-offers, and just took out 35 copper coins and handed them to the young woman. After the young woman took the copper coins, she praised Yao Shanbao vigorously again.

After Yao Shanbao readily bought the bronze mirror and rouge gouache for 45 copper coins, the earring sellers, hairpin sellers, and even the clay figurine sellers all called Yao Shanbao to buy them.

Yao Shanbao liked everything he saw, and suddenly, many people crowded around him.

Yao Shanbao squeezed in the middle with his head in his arms, then gave a smirk twice, and squeezed away from the crowd.

Not far away, two hidden guards in plain clothes were hesitating whether to step forward to help Madam drive away those difficult women in the market.

One of them saw that there were more and more people around him, so he wanted to go forward with a knife in his hand, but the other stopped him and said, "Let's take a look, madam is smart, it will be all right. Besides, before my lord left, Madam and the lord are having a quarrel. The lord wants to take his wife back to the capital, but the lady refuses to go, so she even quarreled with the lord. Madam doesn't like being followed, so we have to follow quietly. If you offend Madam, The lord will be angry later, look again."

"You're right." The former Yinwei said, "I just checked around, and there is no suspicious person at all. It's better not to make Madam unhappy."

The two young men kept hiding by the corner until the group of people gradually dispersed and Yao Shanbao disappeared, then they realized the seriousness of the problem.

"Where's Madam?" The hidden guard who said he wanted to find Madam at the beginning held the handle of the knife tightly at his waist, and asked the other nervously, "Did you see which way Madam went?"

"I didn't see it..." The other one kept scratching his head, jumping on the spot anxiously, "I won't go far, it must be nearby, let's go and find it separately."

Yao Shanbao hid aside and watched the every move of the two hermit guards, until she saw the two men running away in a hurry, she patted her chest and stretched out two fingers to make a "yeah" gesture.

Yao Shanbao knew that if he went home again this time, there would definitely be more hidden guards waiting there.So, home, she definitely can't go back.As for the Zhang family's old couple, she told them when she went out that she was going to the city to follow her master and apprentice, so the old couple shouldn't be worried.

From Anping County to Qizhou, you only need to go north all the way. Yao Shanbao counted the silver on his body and pulled out a piece of silver, planning to use it to rent a carriage, but after thinking about it, forget it. From here Renting a carriage to go to the provincial capital is definitely not cheap, it is better to spend money sparingly.

Holding up the bronze mirror, Yao Shanbao looked at it, thought about it, and went to Wanhualou.

It was sunny and the Wanhua Building was not busy. When Yao Shanbao walked in, there were only a few girls practicing singing.When they saw Yao Shanbao, they all looked at her with strange eyes, they obviously found it strange, could it be that there are women who came to the door by themselves?
Hongsi knew Yao Shanbao, recognized her at a glance, came over and took her hand affectionately and said, "Miss, why are you here? Let me tell you, Miss, Zhenniang is thanks to you. Zhenniang is already much better with the medicine sent by someone."
