The red hawthorns were wrapped in sugar paste and stained with sesame seeds. Shen Moran bit off one with a click, and one of his cheeks bulged out, like a little squirrel.
Chang Jinchan took it, took a small bite to taste the taste, and then imitated her and stuffed it into her mouth.
"When I was a kid, I loved eating candied haws, but my father didn't allow me to eat anything of unknown origin... Then I got to the border and never ate it again. It still tastes the same as when I was a kid!"
She looked very proud when eating, with a hawthorn in her mouth, and said to Shen Moran, "You ladies who grew up in the capital should not be allowed to eat this kind of thing at home!"
Shen Moran did not eat anything when she was a child. She was not allowed to leave the house. Etiquette was engraved in her bones. She had to follow standards when walking, sitting and lying down. There was nothing worth remembering in her childhood.
"Now that I'm married, as long as Your Highness doesn't feel restrained, you can occasionally go out for a walk."
A piece of candied haws narrowed the distance between the two, and Chang Jinchan pursed his lips and said: "You ladies in the capital are so pitiful..."
The carriage stopped in front of Jubao Pavilion. Jubao Pavilion is the largest jewelry store in the capital, with the most fashionable styles and the most expensive prices.
Chang Jinchan was worthy of being born in the Duke Protector's Palace and had a sharp eye. The pieces of jewelry she selected were the most expensive in the store, totaling more than nine hundred taels of silver.
Shen Moran didn't blink and settled the bill on the spot with the banknote.
Chang Jinchan was also dumbfounded.
"I spent a thousand taels of silver all at once. Cousin-in-law, why don't you report it to your cousin?"
Shen Moran raised his eyebrows and said: "I told you that my cousin gave it to you. It was my own money, so there is no need to report it. Shopkeeper, pack up these jewelry and send them to Prince Zhan's Mansion."
The shopkeeper nodded and bowed, and his attitude should be as respectful as possible.
"Does my cousin like anything else? Do you want to choose more?"
Chang Jinchan shook her head. It wasn't that she was short of jewelry, but she deliberately picked out expensive ones to try out her cousin. If she dared to spend so much money on jewelry all at once, her father would have to give it to her. Broken legs!
"No, thank you cousin."
Shen Moran suggested: "There is a ready-made clothing store next to it. I heard from my servant that my cousin doesn't like the clothes made in the sewing room. Why not go and see if there is anything that suits your liking?"
The kindness was hard to refuse, so Chang Jinchan followed her around and bought more things than the carriage could hold. In addition to clothes and jewelry, there were also various snacks and gadgets. As long as she took a second look and showed that she liked them, Shen Moran ordered someone to buy it for her without saying anything.
This feeling... made it impossible for her to deliberately target it.
It seems that all her faults these days are unreasonable.
"Cousin, why are you so nice to me?"
She is here to steal a man from her. Is there something seriously wrong with her brain?
When Shen Moran smiled, her eyes curved into crescents, and even the ends of her eyes were filled with sincerity.
"My cousin has come from afar, and as my cousin-in-law, I have to fulfill my duties as a landowner. I have been too busy these days and have neglected my cousin. It is right for my cousin to be dissatisfied. I still say the same thing, treat the palace as your own home, don't Restrained.”
Chang Jinchan held a breath in her chest, and the feeling of being punched on cotton was even worse.
"Thank you, cousin."
After holding it in for a long time, I only came out with this sentence.
The carriage was filled with things bought for herself. Chang Jinchan looked at the box in her arms. Shen Moran only bought a belt, a men's black belt and a silver buckle. Is it going to be given to her cousin?
This woman is quite good at winning people's hearts...
At noon, business was booming in the restaurants on the street. The street was full of carriages. The sound of horse hooves scraped the carriages forward. Shen Moran's eyes suddenly lit up and he shouted.
Chang Jinchan looked forward and saw the woman on horseback reining in her horse and turning back.
Then... Shen Moran went out with the belt given to her cousin and gave the belt to the woman.
"What a coincidence, we met again on the street!"
Si Yiluo got off his horse and went to the street to talk with her.
"Li Wei refused to serve as the examiner of the imperial examination, and even submitted his resignation to the emperor. The emperor gave me an ultimatum and told me to keep him. Didn't I arrange to meet him at Tanchun Tower?"
After King Lu died, Emperor Yao's favorite candidate to be the examiner was Li Wei, who had no family or sect. However, Li Wei was chilled and persuaded him to return to the court and take up an important position. This job was a bit difficult.
"Who are you going shopping with?"
Si Yiluo looked up at the carriage and happened to see Chang Jinchan. She frowned. Shen Moran didn't have many friends in the capital...
"It's okay. Your Highness's cousin has come all the way back from the west. I will always do my best to show my kindness to the landlord."
She said it easily, but Si Yiluo couldn't help but worry about her.
"But the Protector wants to get married?"
Her friend had a lawsuit look on her face and was still worried about herself. Shen Moran smiled and cheered up the atmosphere, taking out his belt and gesticulating on her body.
"Why don't you give it a try? I saw this belt and thought it would suit you, so I bought it. I don't know if it will fit or not."
Si Yiluo took the belt and put it into the storage bag on the horse's back.
"What you bought must be suitable. I can't be late when I'm hosting a treat. You should go back home as soon as possible."
Shen Moran responded with a smile and turned back.
Chang Jinchan hurriedly put down the curtain, feeling a storm in her heart. She, she, her belt was not bought for her cousin? Then, then, who is that woman?
Look at the intimacy between the two...if she hadn't seen that it was a woman wearing men's clothes, she would have thought that her cousin-in-law was having a lover on the street in public!
She was about to take a break. Shen Moran didn't expect to meet Si Yiluo on the street today. He was planning to wait for her to take a break and go to the Si Mansion to stay for two days... He looked up and saw Chang Jinchan's suspicious look.
I knew she had misunderstood, but she didn't explain, she raised her eyebrows and smiled ambiguously.
Chang Jinchan looked at the car full of gadgets to coax her, and suddenly burped.
This frightened her, and Shen Moran smiled even wider. It seemed that the girl had read the storybook a lot and had a lot on her mind.
The carriage finally stopped in front of the palace at a quarter past noon. As soon as Chang Jinchan got off the car, she excused herself for having a headache and went back to her room to close the door. Shen Moran asked her servants to deliver the shopping to her room and had a simple lunch. Feeling tired, I lay down to take a nap.
Snowflakes began to fall from the sky again, flying in the air, but not making people feel cold. The servants in the house were cleaning...
Yinyue reported back to Zhou Zhan how the two got along together.
"There was no fighting or quarrel..." Yinyue added, "It's still very harmonious."
"Where's the princess?"
Yinyue replied truthfully: "The princess has taken a nap, and my cousin has not left the house."
"knew."
Chang Jinchan came to the door. Shen Moran was not angry, but he felt panicked. No matter what his uncle's idea was, he realized now that he did not want to compromise.
But the princess seems to have misunderstood...
Tan Chun Tower.
"The good wind carried me to Qingyun with its power. The Qingyun Pavilion in Tanchun Tower is hard to find, and Mr. Si is very generous."
Li Wei shook his head and said with a smile, "The tung tree is a parasitic plant in Nanyue. It has Qingyunni above and Qianren Valley below. It's just a metaphor. Young people always like to believe in these illusory things. If you have this skill, you might as well do more.
Read two books and write two more articles."
Si Yiluo poured wine for him.
"If you are the chief examiner, you can select candidates with real talents and knowledge to serve as officials and benefit the people all over the world. If you decline, maybe those selected by the imperial examination will be those who can only flatter others and use gorgeous and arty rhetoric."
