"Is this one too? You're a girl. It would be nice to dress up and go out. Why are you just drinking tea and not eating something, waiter..."
The other party pulled up a chair and sat aside in a very familiar manner.
Chu Yan inexplicably felt a little better.
But she felt something was wrong. How could she compare her beauty to a man?
"Ahem..."
At this thought, she subconsciously looked at Wen Yan and choked on her tea.
This feeling of being read through her thoughts made her whole body feel cold, her scalp numb, and she wished she could disappear immediately.
Chu Yan's calmness disappeared in an instant, and she wiped her mouth with a handkerchief.
"Are you really a woman?"
The young man in Jinyi beside him immediately widened his eyes.
Chu Yan looked down and quickly took the veil back, but the other party had already taken a quick step and grabbed her wrist.
"Which family are you from, right? I have long heard that the women in Sichuan City are very good-natured and like men's clothing. Today I finally saw it. Girl, you are so beautiful, can you..."
"Ah! Who?!"
The chill hit him instantly, and before he could react, he was already knocked to the ground.
No one knows what just happened.
Chu Yan didn’t know either.
She only glanced at Wen Yan suspiciously. He took a sip of tea and looked over with raised eyebrows, "Do you still want to look at it?"
"No...don't watch anymore."
Chu Yan quickly stood up, turned around and ran upstairs.
Wen Yan stood up and glanced at the man condescendingly. The man's wailing face suddenly turned pale.
"You...I'm sorry."
He said dejectedly.
In this world, the only person with a cinnabar mole on his eyebrows is the National Master.
Besides, I also heard that the prince's people may be in Sichuan City. When I thought about it, the time was right.
That's the national master, how dare he offend!
Just now he thought that the cinnabar between his eyebrows was dotted, but when he took a closer look, he realized that it was already there. Now he wanted to die.
Wen Yan narrowed his eyes, "Zhu family?"
The people below laughed bitterly and did not dare to deny, "Yes, Zhu Jinke, the youngest son of the Zhu family, a common man."
"There is a famine in Beicheng. As a wealthy gentry of the Qing Dynasty, the Zhu family donated 10,000 shi of food. What does Mr. Zhu think?"
"Yes, the common people will go back and discuss it with my father. We, the Zhu family, will do our best..."
Before he finished speaking, Wen Yanren had already left.
Zhu Jinke sat scattered on the ground, feeling like his soul was gone.
"Sir, who is this person? That's ten thousand shi of grain? If the master finds out, this..."
"That's the Imperial Master. Do you think we can give him 10,000 shi of food?"
Zhu Jinke said angrily.
"Snapped!"
He slapped himself hard again, "Bah! What kind of talk is this! I had a bad time going out today, and I offended the person who should be offended the most."
He got up weakly.
Ten thousand shi of grain is almost the total of all the Zhu family's grain crops.
His father had planned to take advantage of the famine in Beicheng to make a fortune, so almost all the grain from a few hundred miles around went to his Zhu family's granary.
The reason why he came to Sichuan City was to buy more food.
How good it is now...
Haha, all his efforts were in vain overnight, his food was gone, and his piles of gold and silver were gone.
"Sir, the wine you want..."
"piss off!"
The waiter came over to say something, but Zhu Jinke overturned the wine bottle in his hand and said something angrily.
Then he suddenly covered his face and cried loudly.
"What a sin!"
This cry made everyone in the inn listen.
Chu Yan opened the window in surprise, and paused again when he looked at the person below.
It's not that big of a deal, it's just a fall.
Why is a grown man still crying like this?
"Do you want to go for a walk?"
Chang Zhe suddenly appeared in sight and said something in a hoarse voice. There seemed to be some uncontrollable joy on his face. This joy made Chu Yan a little baffled.
"There is a flower market today, don't you want to go and see it?"
Chang Zhe asked again.
Chu Yan was a little distracted. Flowers were so nice, so naturally she wanted to see them.
"Then wait for me."
She closed the window, changed into a pink dress, let her hair down, and only used a ribbon of the same color to gently pull it up.
When she went out, she realized that although there were many men and women in the flower market, there were obviously many more girls than boys.
And every woman is dressed up very beautifully.
Her makeup is appropriate, she wears earrings made of flowers, a hairpin with blooming flowers on her head, and red paint on her forehead. She is definitely wearing the brightest dress, holding a small gauze fan in her hand, and when she smiles
The eyebrows and eyes are curved, like silver bells in the ears.
A colorful flower path!
From the street to the end of the street, if you look around, everything you see is brilliant, and everything you hear is happiness.
This is the human world.
The corner of Chu Yan's mouth turned up in a smile unconsciously, and suddenly she felt that her face without makeup was incompatible with everything here and seemed very disrespectful.
"Girl, come here."
The woman on the side called out, Chu Yan pointed at herself, and the other party nodded hurriedly.
"Come here, I will give you flowers."
Chu Yan's face turned red and she suddenly became shy.
But her body walked there involuntarily, and the other party held her hand and carefully held her in place.
Chu Yan chose a peach blossom hairpin from the many hairpins made of flowers, and also picked up peach blossom earrings, and then paired them with a pear blossom chain.
A light fragrance came, and she took a deep breath, looked at herself in the bronze mirror, and smiled with crooked eyebrows.
"The girl is so pretty. I have never seen you so well-behaved in all the years I have been here."
"Why is it so lively today?"
"How can it not be lively? All the girls in Chengdu have come out and walked the flower path. They will have blooming flowers, health and safety for the rest of their lives."
Chu Yan was stunned for a moment.
Her eyes brightened a bit, and she suddenly wanted to take a walk.
"Besides, if I leave my husband, I will grow old together and be in love for a long time!"
Chu Yan's face fell.
She glanced at Chang Zhe and finally couldn't help but sigh.
"What's going on here?"
"It's nothing. My craftsmanship is very good. Can you sell me this fan?"
"Can!"
The other person smiled from ear to ear.
Chang Zhe was also generous with the money. He handed her a silver coin directly without asking her for change.
"Girl is so lucky!"
Before leaving, the other party held Chu Yan's hand and sighed.
Chu Yan lowered his eyes and said nothing.
"Yan Yan... I have been engaged since I was a child. The other party is the daughter of the household minister's family in the capital. She and I were childhood sweethearts. Later, I was going to fight on the battlefield. Before I left, I made an engagement with her and waited for my triumphant day.
, and marry her."
Chang Zhe suddenly grabbed Chu Yan's hand and walked to the bridge where there were few people around. He looked serious and was determined to confess the past.
Chu Yan was stunned.
Chang Zhe seemed to be a very reliable man. He had broad arms, a tall figure, and a rough but handsome face.
He is good at everything except that he is not a good match.
Chu Yan already knew what he was talking about, so he just listened indifferently. When his eyes widened, he looked at the other side of the bridge. Wen Yan was leaning on the railing and seemed to be looking towards her.
