After Her Divorce, She Escaped With A Strong Man To Farm

56 Shopping (1)

“Wait! Let your brother sleep a little longer. He’s too tired,” Su Qing said as she pulled Ji Xiaoying back.

“Oh, that’s right. Sister, you’re so thoughtful. I’ll be gentle and not wake him up.”

Hearing Su Qing’s words, Ji Xiaoying stopped looking for Ji Shuisheng. She tiptoed like a kitten in the house, afraid that she would make any noise and wake her big brother up.

“Wash up. After that, we’ll go for a walk on the streets.”

!!

Su Qing’s smile broadened when she saw the little girl’s expression. She decided to bring her out to the streets to play.

She had been busy running away since she came to this world, and had yet to see what the cities of this era were like.

“Okay, sure!”

Ji Xiaoying’s eyes lit up when she heard Su Qing’s suggestion. She had been trapped in Peach Blossom Cove and had never been to the city. She was so excited to go shopping that she wanted to jump up and down.

However, as soon as she clapped her hands, she thought of her brother who was sleeping next door. She quickly put her hands away and stuck out her tongue at Su Qing.

The two of them washed up and went downstairs without any makeup.

Su Qing had many things to buy. If she wanted to make boots out of the horse leather, she needed to buy linen and brooches. Besides, a change of clothes was not enough. She wanted to buy another set of clothes. There was no need to dress like a beggar now that she had money.

She also wanted to buy some soft cotton fabric. She really couldn’t get used to wearing ancient undergarments, especially when the undergarments were loose-fitting pants. The wind would blow in from the legs of the trousers, not to mention undergarments that didn’t provide any support for her chest at all. After wearing it for a long time, her bosom would definitely sag. She wanted to make her own bra and underwear, and it just so happened that she could improve her knitting skill.

She also needed to buy more seasonings. She had to do everything perfectly. Since she wanted to improve her cooking skills, she had to make her own dishes better than the chef’s.

When the two of them went downstairs, they met Li Wu, who was about to come up to find them. Li Wu saw that the two of them were about to go out and asked, “Young lady, do you want to go out for a walk?”

Su Qing nodded and said, “Yes, we want to go for a walk.”

“Please have breakfast before you go. Master has already ordered the shopkeeper to prepare it. He sent me to ask you guys to eat together.”

Li Wu smiled and felt that his master was being too meticulous with these two girls. Maybe it was because his master wanted to cure his illness, so he was so concerned and took care of them.

Su Qing shook her head and refuted, “It’s alright, we’ll go eat on the street.”

“Then… Alright, Miss, don’t go too far. It’s not very peaceful out there now.”

Li Wu saw that Su Qing was insistent on leaving, so he did not stop her. However, he still warned them to be careful.

They were extremely important to Old Master Qin. He heard that many pretty girls had ben going missing recently, and he was afraid that they would be in danger.

“Yes.”

Su Qing coldly snorted and left with Ji Xiaoying.

Li Wu looked at Su Qing’s cold figure, finding her incredibly cool and aloof.

Su Qing walked out of the courtyard and took a look. There was only Old Master Qin’s carriage in the stable. It should be the Wan family Army who had cleared out the guests from the relay station.

The reason that they weren’t chased away was also because of Old Master Qin.

Old Master Qin must be an important official in the Imperial court for the arrogant General Wan to be afraid of him. Su Qing did not want to have anything to do with the officials.

“Sister, it’s so lively!”

Once Ji Xiaoying reached the streets, she was overwhelmed and could not take in everything in time. She looked around excitedly, finding everything strange. When she saw a small vendor making wontons on a carrying pole, she stopped in her tracks and could not move.

The wontons had a thin skin and a generous amount of filling, and after they were cooked, they were white and plump. The fragrance was extremely appetizing when it was blown over by the wind.

Su Qing saw that Ji Xiaoying’s eyes were shining like a greedy cat, so she brought her to the stall and told the stall owner her order.

“Two bowls, please.”

“Alright, please take a seat. It’ll be ready soon.”

The stall owner agreed with a smile and pointed to a small bench where Su Qing and Ji Xiaoying could sit on.

At this time, the wonton stall was already filled with more than a dozen customers. When they saw the two beautiful girls, they stared at them.

This young girl is so youthful and pleasing to the eye. How could there be such a beautiful girl?

The originally fragrant wontons instantly lost their appeal. All the men were attracted to Su Qing and Ji Xiaoying. contemporary romance

Su Qing looked around coldly. The men, whose minds were wavering, quickly lowered their heads in fear when she swept her murderous gaze across them.

This was someone they couldn’t afford to offend. She was probably a young lady from a rich family.

“Ladies, the wontons are ready,”

The stall owner carried two bowls of wonton and placed them on the table with a smile. He even used the towel around his neck to wipe the water stains on the table. At first glance, he could tell that these two were young ladies from rich families. He couldn’t neglect them.

Su Qing looked at the wontons in the bowl. The white and plump wontons were paired with green tea and scallions. The soup was made with chicken broth and it had a transparent golden yellow color, which showed that it had been boiled well. There was even a layer of sesame oil floating on the surface of the soup. Its appearance alone was really appetizing.

“Big sister, it’s so delicious.”

Ji Xiaoying had a wonton in her mouth. It was so hot that it was sizzling, but she was reluctant to spit it out. She was still praising it to Su Qing.

Su Qing wanted to laugh when she saw how cute she was.

“Eat slowly, no one’s snatching it from you.”

“I can’t help it. I’ve never eaten such delicious wontons. I’ve eaten wontons made by Qiu Wanzi before, and they were also filled with meat but not as delicious as these.”

Ji Xiaoying ate until her cheeks were bulging, her large eyes watery, as beautiful as flowers, attracting the attention of the men in the wonton stall.

Su Qing scooped a wonton into her mouth and chewed slowly. The aroma of the wonton and the chicken soup mixed together. It was both fresh and fragrant, and it was indeed delicious.

As Su Qing ate the wonton, she casually asked Ji Xiaoying, “Are you on good terms with the Qiu family?”

“Our families were neighbors, and Godpa and Grandpa Qiu have a very good relationship. Grandpa Qiu even suggested to Godpa to let my brother and sister Qiu get engaged!”

Ji Xiaoying was not a scheming person. She would answer Su Qing’s questions honestly.

“Is that so?”

Su Qing raised her brows. No wonder Qiu Yue was so hostile to her. She was jealous.

...

“Yes, but my godfather told me to wait, and then he didn’t mention it again.”

Ji Xiaoying’s eyes were a little sad. She had even dreamed of her godfather last night. She missed him so much.

“Where’s your godfather?”

When Su Qing heard the word ‘godfather’, she looked up at Ji Xiaoying. She had been with the group for a few days now, but she had not seen her godfather.

She was very interested in this mysterious godfather. To be able to nurture someone like Ji Shuisheng, he must not be an ordinary person.

“My godfather has already passed away.”

Ji Xiaoying was full and could not eat anymore. She put down the spoon, her almond-shaped eyes filled with tears, and her voice was filled with sorrow.

“It’s a pity,”

Su Qing nodded. No wonder he had never seen him before. He was already dead.

Two bowls of wontons cost six copper coins. Su Qing felt that it was really cheap.

Ji Xiaoying was in a bad mood and she listlessly walked behind Su Qing. Su Qing did not want to see her sad, so when she saw a clothing shop in front, she said to Ji Xiaoying, “Xiaoying, there’s a clothing shop over there. Let’s go and take a look!”

...

Most girls like beautiful clothes, and buying clothes was to cure their unhappiness.

“Alright,” he said.

As expected, Ji Xiaoying’s eyes lit up the moment she saw the beautiful clothes. She immediately forgot about her sadness and walked into the clothing store excitedly. Su Qing really liked her personality. Her troubles came and went quickly. She smiled and followed her in.

On the other side of the street, a luxuriously dressed man with greasy hair gawked at Su Qing and Ji Xiaoying excitedly.
