Chapter 137 Choosing to make gold between listening to music or going on a cruise
What’s even stranger is that he has never seen this girl before!
At this time, the aunt in charge of the hospital said that she knew the clothes. There were only two pieces of cloth presented in the capital a few days ago, and they were all on that girl.
It was up to her to take care of things.
Lin Bo, who usually drives the car, stood aside and nodded, "Two days ago, your Excellency asked me how the only son of the Shangshu family was doing after he pretended to be ill. Where do young gentlemen and young ladies from aristocratic families in Beijing usually go when they meet up for a trip?"
"I thought the Master's son had offended him and he was going to be in bad luck."
A voice suddenly appeared in their ears. The aunt and the housekeeper were startled. When they saw the person clearly, the housekeeper said angrily, "Why are you walking silently!"
"This is what people who practice martial arts are like." Lin Bo said with a paralyzed face.
"So what happened to the Master of the Master's family after he pretended to be ill?" My aunt asked anxiously after half-listening.
"Ms. Liu next door found him and beat him up. At that time, he dropped his crutch and ran away." Lin Bo described the chaotic scene in a precise manner.
"Then the adults took off the gauze on their hands."
There are not many people in the house, and there are not many rules. I heard that there is a girl walking side by side with the master, and the master even opened the door for her in person.
Everyone couldn't help but wonder who this girl was.
In the past two days, there was a rumor in the capital that the Imperial Master had a woman he liked, and for this reason he refused the royal marriage. Is it true? !
The spies in the dark asked the question twice before hurriedly entering the palace to resume their duties.
Shen You is in the study, looking at the study carvings carved from agarwood. Wen Zhi's study has two places, one for daily living, and one built in the bamboo house at the back.
You can change it if you get tired of it.
It is indeed a house given by the old emperor.
The paper on the table was very expensive. According to Shen You's understanding of Da Qi, one piece of paper cost nearly one tael of silver.
The words written on it were placed on the table, and Shen You glanced over and saw them.
Ancient letters without punctuation marks might not be understandable at first glance, but she had come across some of them.
To put it simply, there was something wrong with the cargo ship transporting cold-warming supplies from the Western Regions. The prince was sent to Beijing to investigate. Someone was planning it.
Shen You saw that Wen Zhi didn't care that the letter was on the table and didn't dwell on it.
"There are many interesting places in the capital. Where do you want to go this afternoon?" When Wen Zhi asked this question, he looked at Shen You with bright eyes.
Thinking of the places where ordinary young men and women would go in the capital, who knows the next second, Shen You said expectantly, "Of course it's a workshop, I haven't finished learning those crafts yet!"
Wen Zhi:.
The entire capital knew that on the winter solstice, the powerful Imperial Master personally accompanied a girl out of the palace to the busiest street.
Everyone only knows that this girl is from Yunzhou and is said to be a businessman, but nothing else can be found out.
Wen Zhi was dressed in white clothes, with a hosta in his hair, and a hint of coldness in the silver thread on his cuffs,
But his appearance was too good, and his attire was a bit more sinister, just like the rumored evil words that deceived the public and controlled the government.
The girl next to her has a fair face, wearing a crystal clear hydrangea hairpin on her head, and a unique lantern gold hairpin.
The two people standing together naturally attracted everyone's attention.
Who would have thought that not long ago, just now, the two of them were still in the workshop, one was hammering gold, and the other was watching helplessly and resignedly.
Some good people deliberately choose beautiful clothes, but instead of listening to music or going boating, they come to work in a workshop and exchange modern and ancient crafts with others.
It had just rained in the early hours of this morning, and it was still wet and cold. It was getting dark very quickly. It was still early and the street lights were already on.
Because it was the winter solstice, the craftsmen had to go home early. Shen You didn't want to waste other people's time, so she left the workshop at around four o'clock in the afternoon.
"Do me a favor." Shen You pointed at the lantern hairpin on her head.
Wen Zhi stretched out his hand to help her take off the piece of paper. When the small wick lit up, everyone walking on the street was shocked.
The hairpin actually glows!
On this dimly lit street, the warm-colored lights sway gently as you move around, which is so eye-catching. No one from several aristocratic families has ever seen such a rare object!
"Is that something from the Western Regions?"
"Definitely! How can the hairpin still shine? Is it a unique luminous stone from the Western Regions?"
As we all know, the business in the Western Region is related to the Imperial Master, and it is only reasonable that he can get good things from the Western Region.
What everyone is thinking is whether this thing can be bought in the Liu family's shop. This question is very important!
Shen You asked about the palace banquet, and Wen Zhi said that it didn't matter the time, it didn't matter if he left early or late, and there was no need to bow to anyone.
That's good, she spent money to come to the plane, so she couldn't waste time. Shen You saw a shop selling food from the Western Regions and went in to take a look out of curiosity.
It sells steamed cakes, and it should be run by the Liu family.
The business is so booming that the number of cakes is limited every day and they will be closed once sold out.
In addition, it is the winter solstice again, so there are more people buying, and the store clerks are overwhelmed.
Shen You looked at the price. In ancient times, white flour was expensive, and the cost of making butter from milk was not low. It was the only one in the capital, and no other shop knew how to make Western pastries.
At three taels of silver a piece, it can't be said to be expensive. There are also particularly expensive cakes in modern times.
The purpose itself is to make money from rich people.
"Sir, miss, today's pastries are gone." The waiter said in embarrassment.
Many people made reservations in advance, and even if they added a lot of copies today, there was still not enough to sell.
"Nothing." Shen You stopped Wen Zhi from trying to buy the gold cake from others.
I was about to leave, but I didn't want to meet anyone I knew.
Zhong Jing stopped by to pick up pastries, but he didn't expect to see Shen You here.
He froze on the spot for several seconds, then looked at Wen Zhi next to him.
What's going on?
This girl looks a bit like Shopkeeper Shen.
Zhong Jing first bowed to Wen Zhi, then lowered his voice and asked Shen You uncertainly,
"Shen, Shopkeeper Shen?"
Shen You nodded: "Long time no see, Mr. Zhong."
When Zhong Jing greeted her, he was still a little confused. It was really Shopkeeper Shen!
"Shopkeeper Shen has something to do when he comes to the capital?"
What he was thinking was that maybe they could be of help here.
"No, I just wanted to see the grand occasion of the Winter Solstice." Shen You replied.
The clerk in the store saw that Zhong Jing and Shen You spoke with respect in their tone, and said very discerningly,
"There are still some pastries left in the store, and they are going to be sent to the boss's house. Why not give one to the girl."
In fact, Shen You was just curious and didn't have to buy it, but after saying so, he couldn't deny other people's kindness.
Paid the money and got the ancient steamed cake.
Zhong Jing walked next to him and said, "The cakes here are very popular in the capital. It's a face-saving thing for anyone to host a banquet, but compared with the ones you have at Shopkeeper Shen, they're far behind."< br>
"I'll prepare some for you in two days." Shen You smiled.
Zhong Jing smiled and thanked her.
But is it possible that Shopkeeper Shen and the Imperial Master really have the kind of relationship that is rumored?
He still didn't quite believe how an immortal like Shopkeeper Shen could fall in love with any man so easily.
The next chapter is going to be late today, and I’m stuck again o(╥﹏╥)o
