The carriage drove out of Fuya Hutong and headed towards the busiest neighborhood in Mobei.
Li Man'er was quite curious when she was sitting in the carriage. She came in a hurry and had not seen what the market in Mobei was like. It was just that due to her status, she couldn't lift the curtain and look out at will.
Anyway, you can see it sooner or later.
Li Man'er's move made her feel relieved in Xiao Qiniang's eyes.
If she didn't have any trace of a young girl who is ignorant of the world, it would be shocking!
"Mobei is desolate. I'm afraid it's not as prosperous as the capital. It's best if my sister doesn't take offense."
Li Man'er disagreed, "What my sister said, every place has its own advantages. The capital city is prosperous, the south of the Yangtze River is rich, and Mobei is naturally as good as Mobei."
It seems that after a big quarrel with Li Shu yesterday, Li Man'er's attitude has also changed a lot. Before, he was calling Miss Xiao Qi and refused to get close to him no matter what. Now it's better, and he also changed his name to Miss Xiao Qi.
She is Sister Xiao.
"What's so good about Mobei? I don't know." Xiao Qiniang seemed to sigh, "To be honest with my sister, this place is desolate, the wind and sand are strong, the crops don't grow well, and there aren't many grains that can be grown."
It is extremely cold in two seasons of the year, and the flowers in other places have stopped blooming. The grass in Mobei has just emerged. Before I can take a closer look, summer has arrived again, and the weather is extremely hot. If I go out at noon,
It’s all going to melt in the sun.”
"Dazun Country has a vast territory, and the distance between north and south is more than a thousand miles. It's not surprising to have such a reaction! It would be boring if a country looked the same from south to north, from top to bottom."
Xiao Qiniang nodded, "Your statement is quite novel, but it also makes some sense."
I don't know why, but the two of them actually started to feel sympathetic towards each other and could talk to each other well. They were not at all like the vindictive, black-eyed chickens that Li Man'er had when he first came to Mobei.
The scene outside the carriage gradually became lively, and the shouts of vendors gradually became heard.
Li Man'er opened a small crack in the thick curtain and looked outside. When he saw that it was really lively outside, a smile appeared on his lips.
"Sister Xiao, this street is obviously very lively."
"Isn't it the Chinese New Year? We don't usually see this kind of scenery."
Li Maner put down the curtain and said, "Then where should we go now? Should we go to a teahouse or a restaurant?"
"You are hungry?"
Li Man'er shook his head, "I just think teahouses and restaurants are more lively. And you can also visit medicine shops. I heard that there are many medicinal merchants in Mobei. Maybe you will come across some good products."
"You really don't want to think about the medicinal materials when you go out for fun once in a while?"
"I'm used to it!" When talking about medicinal materials, Li Man'er seemed to have returned to his majestic and wise appearance, "Medicinal materials are extremely profitable, but the quality of medicinal materials is uneven. Mobei has a unique climate. Although it is not rich in grain, it has
There are several kinds of medicinal materials that are not available anywhere, such as parasol flowers, blood mushrooms..."
Xiao Qiniang had a headache when she heard this, "Okay, little aunt, I'm here to choose a gift for you today, not talk about medicinal materials."
I really impressed her.
"Okay!" Li Man'er was quite obedient. The two of them pretended to be sisters, but they were all scheming. They were hiding in the dark with a big knife, waiting for the other party to reveal their flaws first!
After a while, the carriage stopped, and a woman took a step stool and was waiting aside.
Li Maner got out of the car first, and then helped Xiao Qiniang out in a very gentlemanly manner.
The coachman led the carriage away, and several women followed closely behind them. The small team stood at the door of the store, like door gods.
The waiter didn't dare to neglect and hurriedly came out to buy time for his shopkeeper.
"Miss Xiao Qiniang, you are here." The young man was considered a disciple, and his eyes were very poisonous. He could recognize Xiao Qiniang with just a glance.
"Yeah." Xiao Qiniang only responded and walked towards the house.
Li Man'er was half a step behind her, looked up and saw Jibaozhai written on the plaque, and followed her into the house.
When the shopkeeper saw Xiao Qiniang coming, he was very attentive.
"Miss Xiao Qi, your visit really makes the shop shine."
Xiao Qiniang's attitude towards the shopkeeper was not bad, but it was just okay.
"Fat Tian, your mouth is getting sweeter and sweeter."
Hey, give people nicknames!
Li Man'er became interested and took a look at the shopkeeper and found that he was really fat. He was so fat that he had no neck, as if he had a head directly placed on his shoulders.
This person has high blood lipids, high blood pressure, and high uric acid. He is not running away.
"Hey, I'm not talking sweetly, this is my heartfelt feeling."
"Okay, do you have any good stuff in the store?"
The fat shopkeeper hurriedly said: "We have just arrived some fine pearls, fine noodle dishes and some gadgets. The most amazing thing is the newly arrived jadeite, which has the right color and excellent water quality. The seventh girl moved to the second floor and the younger one personally
Show it to you."
Xiao Qiniang nodded with satisfaction, "Lead the way."
"Yes, yes." The fat shopkeeper asked the boy to block the stairs, "Don't let other customers come up, just say Miss Xiao Qi is here."
"It's from the shopkeeper."
Shopkeeper Tian personally took the two of them upstairs and secretly glanced at Li Man'er several times. He thought he was Xiao Qiniang's little husband and was secretly gossiping about him. But when he heard Xiao Qiniang call 'him'
When Man'er met his sister, the fat shopkeeper instantly realized that Ganqing was a girl disguised as a man.
"Miss Seven, sit down for a while while the younger one goes to pick up the goods." Everything in the silver building is of great value. Good things must be locked in the warehouse and can only be revealed when distinguished guests come. The keys to the warehouse are all tied to the shopkeeper. If
If he loses it, his life will not be lost.
"Sixi, serve tea to Miss Seven."
A young man brought hot tea and snacks.
The two of them didn't eat or drink, they just waited for Fatty Tian to bring the food.
Not long after, shopkeeper Tian came out with two apprentices carrying three trays.
"Miss Qi, the goods are on the counter, please be careful."
The two of them got up and went to see it.
"Miss Xiao, please look at this. This is a step made of red gold inlaid with five-color gemstones. The craftsmanship used on it is the best. The five-color gemstones represent gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, and they have good meanings."
"The colors don't even match up, it's too far-fetched."
As soon as Shopkeeper Tian heard this, he knew that Xiao Qiniang was not interested in this step, so he quickly had someone take it away.
"How do you like this necklace? The small gold and jade pieces hanging on it are all exquisite and the materials used are very exquisite. They are rare."
"It looks good." Xiao Qiniang showed it to Li Man'er, "What do you think?"
"Collar?" Li Man'er simply said: "I haven't worn it since I was eight years old, but the style is indeed very exquisite."
Xiao Qiniang also agreed and said, "Keep it or give it away."
The fat shopkeeper immediately said: "The little man will wrap it up for you."
The young apprentice handed over a box, and the fat shopkeeper personally placed the collar inside and asked someone to put it aside.
