Chapter 706 (2/2)
Xiaoyu shook her head like a rattle and said, ”I don't dare. I haven't won a bet with miss every time. The hard won reward will return to miss's hand at that time.”
Seeing the way she held her purse tightly, Tian Yuqiao couldn't help laughing again.
”You are really stingy.”
Tian Yuqiao frowned while looking at the busy market outside and said, ”Xiaoyu, is this Huai'an county?”
”According to the time, it's almost here.” Xiaoyu stared and looked out.
The bodyguard of King Jing's residence came and reported, ”miss qiao'er, the LORD said, let's live in Huai'an County today and go directly to the village tomorrow.”
”OK, I see.” Tian Yuqiao said, moving his sore neck and preparing to get off the carriage.
Prince Jing went directly to the post station at the head of the county city and settled the large army to prevent them from harassing the people here. Then Prince Jing smiled and said to Tian Yuqiao, ”it's not good for you to come back empty handed this time. I'll give you some time today. Take someone to buy some gifts for your family and take them back.”
Tian Yuqiao was in a good mood and thanked Prince Jing directly. Then he took ten disguised bodyguards from Prince Jing's house, took Xiaoyu and rushed to a snack shop.
Other accompanying people were also released in batches. If anyone wants to buy some specialties, he can also take this opportunity to buy some and take them back.
However, most people buy things for women, because the jewelry here is much cheaper than that in the imperial city. It's also cost-effective to buy some to coax the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law at home.
Jewelry shops and silver houses were crowded with people all at once. The boss was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth with a smile. He warmly greeted the guests who spoke with a Beijing accent.
A clever guy greeted the guests with a smile and asked, ”you must be all distinguished people from the imperial city. I don't know what's good about coming to us this time?”
”Hey, actually, there's nothing to keep secret. We all came back to visit our relatives with Miss Zhutian of Fengyang County and offered a memorial to the twelve princes.”
”What kind of official is the county leader? Isn't there a county magistrate in our county?”
”Hey, I don't understand what I told you. Anyway, she is a little girl. She lives in the mountain village.”
Tian Yuqiao's name soon spread out. At this time, in a shop selling rouge and gouache, an old man was squinting and shaking a big Pu fan, as if thinking about something.
”Go and call my uncle.”
When the servant heard the speech, he hurried to the inner house and called out a beautiful man with a haggard look.
”Hai Hai, it's said that your niece became the county leader. Now she's returning home with the old men and horses. Hurry up and take your daughter-in-law home. Don't you always miss your parents? I'll let you go home this time.”
