Jiang Bai smiled and said: "No matter what metaphor it is, there is only one thing I want to express - the hall master is so good-looking!"
Even though he is as thick-skinned as a walnut, he can't stand being praised like this.
Ignoring his somewhat hot face, Hu Tao walked forward as if nothing had happened, "Let's go, let's go!"
It was still early in the morning and the weather was very good. The two of them walked forward one after another. The sun shone on their bodies, as if they were coated with a layer of gold.
"Master, how long until your birthday?"
Hu Tao turned around and said doubtfully: "There are still five days left, what's wrong?"
"It's nothing, I'm just afraid I'll remember it wrong."
Jiang Bai smiled. Under the sun, his smile was particularly bright.
When Hutao celebrates his birthday, he will be 16 years old. After another Hai Lantern Festival, he will be considered to be 17 years old. Rounding off, he is not far from adulthood.
"What gift are you planning to give me?"
"What's the point of having a gift?"
"Master, how do you plan to celebrate your birthday?"
"Invite everyone to dinner and get together, how else can we spend time together?"
"Who are you going to invite, Master?"
"You also have Xiangling, Guoba, Xingqiu, and Chongyun. That's it. It's not good if there are too many people."
"Aren't you going to invite Mr. Zhongli?"
Hutao spread his hands, looking a little helpless, "Invite him here, he can't fit into the atmosphere of us young people, and he can easily make the atmosphere very polite.
"I really want to invite Qiqi, but she will definitely not be willing to come."
Although the relationship between her and Qiqi has eased a lot, Qiqi still doesn't like her, and due to his poor memory, he still hides away from her every time he sees her.
"Who told you to scare her every time?" Jiang Bai was speechless.
Although Hu Tao no longer sends Qiqi to the afterlife, he still likes to scare Qiqi every time he sees her, such as suddenly appearing behind her, or suddenly popping a head out from the beam. What child can't be afraid of her after such an operation?
Hutao jumped forward with his hands behind his back, "Oh, this is fun, it's so fun to see how scared they are~"
Life would be terrible if it didn't have some fun.
The two soon arrived at a nearby bookstore.
There are many bookstores in Liyue, but most of the books are not allowed to be read for free. If you want to read a book, you have to buy the book.
When you walk into a bookstore, the shelves are filled with all kinds of books.
In addition to books, the bookstore also sells some calligraphy and paintings, pens, inks, paper and inkstones.
Without looking at the dazzling array of books on the bookshelves, Hu Tao directly found the boss in front of the case and asked:
"Boss, do you have "The Record of Shen Qiu's Picking Up Swords" here?"
The boss adjusted his glasses and poked his head out of the book.
"It's Hutao. I have some impression of the book you mentioned. About two months ago, people from the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce bought all the few sets I had here and they are gone."
He only has a few copies of this book here because not many people buy it, so it is a very unpopular book.
On the other hand, people from Feiyun Chamber of Commerce bought all the books that time, which makes people feel a little strange.
"You actually bought them all a long time ago! Damn Xingqiu!" Hu Tao clenched her little fist.
In order to prevent them from reading the book he wrote, this guy actually bought all the books!
Now there is no need to go to other bookstores. This book must not be available in the entire Liyue Port.
"Master, do you want to go to other bookstores?"
"No, let's go directly to Feiyun Chamber of Commerce!"
Now it is estimated that only Xingqiu himself has this book. If you want to read the follow-up, you can only go to him directly!
"I saw Xingqiu in Tianheng Mountain a few days ago. He has been away from home these days."
Can Jiang Bai let Hu Tao go to Xingqiu's house?
Of course not!
He specially called Hu Tao out for shopping, and he had already prepared the money. How could he let the hall master go to another man's house?
"It will be the same next time I find him. Master, let's go shopping!" Jiang Bai grabbed Hu Tao's shoulders and turned her around.
"Okay, okay." Hu Tao did not doubt whether what Jiang Bai said was true or false. Anyway, he was not in a hurry to find Xingqiu to get the book.
Her little brother seemed to want to go shopping, so she reluctantly went shopping with him.
Jiang Bai pushed her into a clothing store: "It's the hall master who buys clothes for me. I haven't bought clothes for the hall master yet! Hall master, you can choose, I will pay for it today!"
Hu Tao usually wears only a few clothes, all of which are quite dark in color, but the new set of clothes she wore today is a rare bright color.
It’s better to buy more new clothes. Beautiful girls should wear more new clothes!
"Hey, why are you so generous today?" Hearing his words, Hutao seemed to see the sun coming out of the west.
"Master, what are you talking about? I used to have no money, but now it's different. I have money!" Jiang Bai patted his bulging pocket.
Just two words——
pride!
"Yo yo yo, since you are so rich, then I, the hall master, will not be polite!" Hu Tao's eyes shone.
This is a rare opportunity where she doesn't have to foot the bill.
Looking at the excited Hu Tao, Jiang Bai suddenly felt guilty as he touched his purse.
He has more than 1.3 million molas in his pocket, isn’t that enough?
No matter, the leather is blown out, if it’s not enough, I’ll give it on credit!
Looking at the various beautiful clothes in the store, Jiang Bai was dazzled and immediately forgot about Maura. He only felt that Hu Tao looked good in everything he wore, so he excitedly picked up the clothes and gestured at Hu Tao.
He picked up a black skirt with a red koi carp embroidered on it, gestured and handed it to her, "Master, try this. The koi carp symbolizes luck, so it's a good thing to wear on your birthday!"
Then I picked up a set of thick red flat-pleated sea wave pattern skirt, "The red color is festive, it's a good outfit during the Hai Lantern Festival this year!"
Then he stuffed it into Hu Tao's hand. He picked up a set of goose gray water cloud satin trousers on the other side and stuffed it over, "This is a good thing to wear when going out. It looks good and is easy to move around."
That's not all, the more he watched, the more excited he became, and soon the clothes in Hu Tao's hands covered her head.
Hutao held a pile of clothes blankly, once again falling into a state of who am I, where am I, and what am I doing.
She had gone shopping with Xiangling, gone shopping with Yiguan, and had gone shopping with Zhongli, but this was the first time she saw Jiang Bai like this.
What does this take her for?
One-click dress-up game!
Doesn't it take time for her to change clothes? With so much stuffed in, can you consider whether she can come here and give it a try?
Fortunately, this situation did not last long. The waiter could not stand it and helped her solve the problem.
The waiter tactfully said to Jiang Bai, who had brought another set of clothes: "Sir, you have brought too many clothes, and this lady will not be able to take them anymore."
Only then did Jiang Bai react and looked at Hu Tao. Hu Tao had been completely covered by a pile of clothes, and his head could not be seen.
His scalp tightened and he quickly helped Hu Tao pick up a lot of clothes.
Looking at Hu Tao's expressionless face, he sneered, "Come on, Hall Master, try this first."
