Chapter 13 Give Her a Gift At dawn, Feng Xiaoer climbed up from the ground while dying.
The bright red clothes were stained with some mud, but they still couldn't hide their original brilliance and elegance.
After lying on the bed all day, my ears felt inexplicably hot.
The older generation all say that if your ears are warm, someone must be missing you.
If you keep sneezing, someone must be scolding you.
Think deeply, if your right ear is hot, it means a woman is thinking about you; if your left ear is hot, a man must be thinking of you.
By coincidence, Feng Xiaoer's right ear was the left ear was hot, like a sweet potato just taken out of a hot stove.
She couldn't help but laugh to herself. In this world, besides her mother, who else would miss her?It’s too farfetched.
Unfortunately, she was wrong.
This folklore is actually quite reliable.
……
After a night's journey, Xiao Qi has arrived at Yuyang, a city just outside the capital.
At this moment, he is wearing casual clothes and secretly inspecting the tax payment status of vendors.
Every year, half of the silver in the treasury is filled with taxes paid by merchants, merchants, and imperial merchants, large and small.
To put it simply, if there is a problem with the tax system, it will shake the foundation of the country.
Of course, as big as the world is, there are dark places in those dark corners where the sun cannot shine.
As long as it wasn't too outrageous, or in other words, it was well nourished with gold and silver, he would just let it go and turn a blind eye.
He is now in a high position of power, so even if it is an unannounced visit, it is just to personally visit one or two families to understand the situation.
The main purpose of coming to Yuyang is Huangshang.
The remaining inconspicuous merchants will be completely handed over to their subordinates.
He is so busy with his affairs, how could he waste his time doing such a small thing? Most of the officials in the palace are very thoughtful and can come up with the desired answer in just a few I visited two companies, it was very fast and smooth, and there were no unexpected problems.
The reason why he once again wanted to waste precious time going to the next shop for an unannounced visit was because the next shop was a shop specializing in women's accessories.
Although Yuyang is not as good as Beijing, fortunately it is also a place with developed commerce and trade.
The shops selling jewelry are as grand as the storefronts in the the samples displayed outside are eye-catching enough to attract people to stop and look.
Mo Qili was a little confused and couldn't help but persuade him: "Lord Governor, let your subordinates finish it for you. You go back and rest first."
Xiao Qi waved his hand and stepped straight into the jewelry store.
Bear the brunt of it and walk over to the place where hairpins are sold.
The counter has a dazzling array of items, including gold-plated jade tray flower hairpins, double-pedicel crabapple gold wire-wrapped hairpins, white jade hollow bead flower hairpins, plum-filled velvet simulation hairpins...
Xiao Qi didn't know what the names of these hairpins were. He thought they were all very beautiful, but they had no special features and something was missing.
Looking at these jewels, I suddenly pictured in my mind the pretty appearance of Feng Xiaoer standing in front of the window lattice, with her head slightly raised, her hands neatly hidden in her wide sleeves, looking forward to his return with a little expectation and a little fear.
The little moonlight shines on the red clothes on her body, making her look like a fairy who has fallen into the world of be honest, those imperial concubines in the harem are nothing more than this.
Perhaps, not as good as her at all.
The shopkeeper was so naive that he came out to greet the distinguished guests with a big smile.
Having been in business for many years, some people are either rich or noble, and you can tell at a glance.
Although he was wearing clothes worn by ordinary people, the material, workmanship, and style of the clothes were very expensive at first glance, and they must have been bought by people from the capital.
In addition, he has an extraordinary bearing and looks like a person at first glance, so he cannot be treated properly.
"Sir, I want to buy a hairpin for my sweetheart!"
Mo Qili swallowed. In fact, he was a little frightened.
Lord, what's going on?Why do you suddenly like these things?
The only person he could relate to was the new wife Feng Xiaoer who had just passed away a few days ago.
However, when the governor completes his plan, he will kill her, so why waste energy on selecting hairpins for this woman?
Besides Feng Xiaoer, what other woman could there be? The one at home? It's impossible. The governor has ignored that person for a long time and just waited for him to fend for could he kindly choose a hairpin for her now, just to cause trouble?
Could it be someone from the palace? The people in the palace are the newly promoted concubines, and the emperor's rewards are so numerous that they can't be counted on their hands every it away again would be unnecessary.
I don't understand.
Oh, by the way, I must be overthinking Governor only paid a private more questions is just to prepare the way for the following questions.
What made him even more horrified was that the governor actually nodded and said yes.
What's happening here? Is it really for Feng Xiaoer?
The shopkeeper's customer greeting officer nodded, his smile deepened, and his narrowed eyes were like slits, and his pupils could not be seen at all.
"My guest, your status is not simple. You cannot give ordinary hairpins!"
"I have a set of hairpins made of seven treasures here. They are made of gold, silver, glass, coral, pearls, agate and broken shells. You can choose one, one is gold, one is hollow treasure forest, one is silver, one is silver phoenix. Bells. Glaze, as beautiful as snow. Corals, flowers and swallows. Pearls, nine seas of age. Agate, red peach blossoms. And broken clams, moon vines and Western mountains. There are seven good things in the seven treasures, and it is a rare beauty in the world, with profound meaning. you……"
"No need to say more."
Xiao Qi has been in a high position for a long time. He is strict and has a style of his own.
His words don't need to be said much, they are few words, but they are powerful.
The shopkeeper really didn't dare to say a word.
The shopkeeper felt that he had offended the customers a little. In order to sell the goods, he kept talking and talking. Now, if he annoyed the customers, he would not be able to do the business.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. It's like this, these hairpins are all designed by me. So when we start chatting, I'm a little gushing, oh, I'm sorry..."
"Get a set."
The boss is like, I don’t want these and this, and I’ll pick up the rest!
