When the two of them arrived at the entrance of the restaurant, they saw a sign that read ”Fragrance Inn”. The two of them were overjoyed. They went inside and ordered some food to eat. The mother and daughter duo came through the door. The girl was statuesque and well-dressed. She was dressed in a pink embroidered dress with a raised border. She wore a skirt that was covered with hundreds of pale green creases. Her hair was dyed black, and her jewellery glistened brightly. Her face was white and her eyebrows were thin. When she saw Lee Yanyi sitting opposite her mother for a meal, she also pulled her mother and said softly, ”Mom, let's just eat something random here.”
The lady wore short-sleeved clothes, and the bracelet on her wrist glittered with golden light. She smiled at her daughter and said, ”This child just came out for a short while and is already hungry.”
The mother and daughter sat down at an empty table and ordered food as well. When Li Qian saw the girl's beautiful and well-dressed appearance, she stole glances at her over and over again. ”Brother, what do you think of that young lady's clothes?”
Lee Yanyi whispered, ”Ah, so beautiful!” He was also full of spirit. If little sister likes it, then dress up like her. ” Li Qian whispered, ”She's dressed decently, it's just that I don't like the color.”
Li Yao said, ”You can choose your own color to imitate her pattern.”
Li Qian said, ”Why are the people here dressed like performers and dressed like this? I said no. ”
After having her meal, Lee Yanyi left the restaurant and walked west for a short distance. Then, she saw another luxurious store. On the card, it said, ”Miss Mei Store.” The two happily entered. There were countless number of different kinds of clothes. There were all kinds of jewelry inside the glass counter. They were made of gold, silver, and jade. They were all beautiful and dazzling.
Li Qian was extremely happy as she read more carefully. The seller was a young lady who received Lissy warmly. She helped Li Qian choose two sets of good clothes, then helped Li Qian put them on so she could look in the mirror. Li Qian looked into the mirror and was immediately filled with joy when she saw her beautiful appearance and the novelty on her face. The young lady winked at the gentleman behind the jewelry counter.
It was the owner. He immediately took out a set of jewelry, and said to Li Qian: ”Miss bought clothes, she is now beautiful, and still needs jewelry. If you wear this set of jewelry, it will be even more luxurious and elegant. Jewellery is also cheap. ” Li Qian was worried about asking for the price if she used too much money. She turned around and glanced at Lee Yanyi.
Li Yao said, ”As long as little sister likes it, brother is not afraid of spending money.” When the gentleman heard this, he immediately took out a box of cosmetics and said, ”Miss looks beautiful, and don't forget to buy it. It can make the young lady look new and beautiful all the time. ”
Li Qian then asked about the price, took the jewelry and cosmetics together, and said, ”Sir, how much do you want to pay in total?” That Mister and Young Miss hurriedly counted and quickly checked their accounts.
The teacher said, ”One hundred and seventy yuan.”
Li Qian said, ”How about one hundred and fifty yuan?”
The gentleman smiled and said, ”You don't have to pay much. Ten more. ”I can forgive you for buying so much.”
Li Yan paid one hundred and sixty dollars. The Mister and Miss said, ”Welcome back, both of you!”
Lee Yanyi walked out of the shop and into the street. ”Sister, you go back to the hotel alone,” she said. I saw that there were many people on the streets, so I wanted to ask some questions about Dongfang Yijie. ”
Li Qian said, ”Brother, don't argue with others. You have to go back earlier.” Li Qian happily left first.
Lee Yanyi stopped to look and saw that his sister had turned south after leaving the street. He relaxed and looked west again. Not far away, in front of a shop in Dao Bei, two youths were chatting as they pulled a cart.
Lee Yanyi walked up and said, ”Brothers, I have something to trouble you with.”
The two of them sized up Li Yan and said, ”Mister, you have something to tell me. ”You're welcome.”
Li Yao said, ”I would like to ask the two of you about a person called Dongfang Yijie. Do you know which street he lives in? ” Hearing this, one of them shook his head while the other thought deeply.
Lee Yanyi continued, ”I'm a relative of his. I came to find him for the first time, so I'm not familiar with his address.”
The person who was thinking hard was called Huang Er. Usually, he was always warm and helpful to others. He said, ”I've heard of the man you're looking for. However, I don't have the details of his address in the city. ”
Another person said: ”Huang Er is really knowledgeable. I've never heard of anyone here with the surname Dongfang. ” Lee Yanyi took out a cigarette and passed it to the two of them, ”Please ask around for me, brothers.” I have a reward. My name is Lee Yanyi and I live upstairs at the 'Shun' Inn. There's news, please come and find me. ”
Huang Er took a drag from his cigarette and said: ”There's no need to thank me. We don't dare to say please. ”We were just pulling around randomly, I'll help you ask wherever you want.”
Another person laughed, ”Mister, you don't know about this. This Huang Er of ours is nicknamed the 'All Things Are With'. If he were to sincerely help you, he would definitely be able to find her. You can entrust him with this. ”
Li Yao said, ”Then I will really have to trouble Second Brother Huang.”
Huang Er did not refuse and continued to ponder: ”I've only met this Easterner once. He was either studying abroad or working there. He never seems to be in town. I saw him on the river last year. He was playing boating with a girl. I heard the girl call him by his name. I don't know which street she lives on. I can definitely help you find this person. ”
Hearing Huang Eryi's words, Lee Yanyi was very happy. He thought to himself, ”It's good that there really is such a person here.” My brother and sister did not run away for nothing. You don't have to worry about not being able to find him. ” When Lee Yanyi heard that a young girl and a young lady were boating on the river, he felt a little uneasy. He exchanged a few more pleasantries, bade the two farewell, and returned to the shop. Seeing that her brother had returned, Li Qian asked, ”Brother, did you find out about it?
Lee Yanyi pretended to smile and said, ”Congratulations, sister! Congratulations, little sister! Dongfang Yijie must be living here. There was a youth called Huang Er who was pulling the carriage. He knew of Dongfang Yijie. Huang Er also promised to help me find him. ”
Li Qian said, ”As long as we didn't run in vain. It wasn't hard to find him. This city was still small compared to Beijing. ”It will only take a day or two for us to find his house.” He then asked, ”Then what about Huang Er and the rest of the family?”
Lee Yanyi was worried that his sister would be worried and said, ”Huang Er only met Yiping once, so I'm not very familiar with him.” He told me to wait here for his news. ” Delighted, Li Qian went downstairs to take a bath. I'm going to see you tomorrow.
