Flowers are expensive

Chapter 245 Going to the Night Market 2
Chun'er glanced at the direction where the fireworks were in full bloom, and said, "There must be someone in the south of the city having a wedding, so the fireworks are going to be set off. Ma'am, it's cold, let's go back quickly!"

"No hurry, let's take a look again!" Lihua looked at the fireworks in the sky with great interest, and suddenly felt that the cold Jingyou City had a little more warmth.Chun'er urged from the side: "Madam, this is not very good! Standing at the gate of the mansion watching the fireworks, I am afraid that others will laugh at them. Let's go back quickly! If you like it, I will give it to you in the mansion later." Throwing the best fireworks show ever."

Lihua stared at the sky intently and said: "You don't understand, you don't have to pick the time to watch fireworks, you just pick the best one, as long as you like it in your heart." She said and walked down the steps outside the door.Chun'er hurriedly followed behind and asked, "Ma'am, are you going out now? It's getting dark, and it's foggy again, and the road is very slippery!"

"Is there a night market in this city?" Lihua asked without stopping, pulling the cloak around her body.

"Yes, do you want to go?"

"Go and take a look."

"lady……"

"What's the matter?" Lihua stopped and asked, "I just went to the night market, not to rob houses, can't I?"

Chun'er said: "This servant is worried that it will be inconvenient for you to go out at night, and wants people to know that you are the wife of the palace..."

"Who knows where to go if you don't tell me?" Li Hua said with a slight smile, "I've only been in this city for a few days? Few people know me. The palace is too boring, there's nothing else to do except chat and eat. I'm bored and always want to go out for a walk."

"But you have to tell Mrs. You! Besides, it's better to bring a few guards."

"If you wait for a few more people, wouldn't it be Emperor Qianlong who went to the south of the Yangtze River? How boring!"

"Qianlong... the emperor? Is there such an emperor?"

Lihua smiled slightly, patted Chun'er on the shoulder and said, "You don't have to worry about it. It's just the two of us, we will come back when we go out for a stroll. You go and tell the door to let him tell Mrs. You to save Mrs. You I'm worried."

"Yes."

Jingyou City in the middle of winter night is extraordinarily quiet, as if it has been frozen.There is only one place that is as lively as Jiangnan in spring, and that is Huajing Street.

From afar, Lihua saw the brilliance of the street lamps reflected in the sky, and heard the indistinct noise.She couldn't help quickening her pace and walking forward.Chun'er supported her from behind and said, "Madam, please walk slowly, and be careful not to slip."

She took her hand away and said to Chun'er: "You don't have to serve me like you serve Madam You. I'm a rough person, I'm used to being free."

Chun'er smiled and said, "Madam is really kind! No wonder all the sisters want to serve Madam!"

"Really?" Li Hua asked with a smile as she walked forward, "Who wants to serve me?"

"Sister Ganlan, Sister Wuye, Sister Suying, I'm afraid that Sister Dong'er thinks about it too! But she is Mrs. You's personal girl, so there's nothing she can do about it."

"Why do they want to serve me so much? I'm not painted with gold or silver."

"Isn't it because the madam has a good temper? And the prince likes it so much, she settled in the east courtyard as soon as she came. The slaves come to the mansion for a short period of time, no more than Sister Gan Lan. Listen to her, except for you, no one lives there. Pass the prince's room. Even Princess Xuan lived downstairs, so why did she ever go upstairs to enjoy herself?"

"is it?"

"Where do slaves dare to talk nonsense? Sister Ganlan also said that before Princess Xuan entered the door, the prince's east courtyard did not allow maids to serve him. After Princess Xuan entered, only a few girls came in and out of the east courtyard. Princess Xuan She brought a dowry herself, so naturally she doesn't need us. She always complains that even if she wants to go to the east courtyard to see plum blossoms, she doesn't have the good fortune."

"She likes the plum blossoms in the east courtyard so much?" Lihua asked Chun'er with a sideways glance.

"That's what she said, and she asked the servant to recommend her to you, so that she will be blessed to serve you. Sister Gan Lan and Sister Dong'er have been in the house for the longest time, and they do things safely. If Madam likes her, come over The service is also good."

"Are you on good terms with her?"

"That's right. When the servant first came to this mansion, Sister Gan Lan took good care of the servant. At that time, the servant was stupid and didn't understand anything. The prince is also a very serious person. Whenever he is in front of him, the servant dare not come out." Sheng'er, I'm afraid I'll offend him. Fortunately, Sister Gan Lan told the servants about the prince's taboo preferences, and the servants avoided a lot of detours! Now everyone in the mansion is envious of the servants who got such a good job, and she managed to open one Mouth, it's not easy for a slave to refuse, so I can only bite the bullet and tell Madam."

"It's enough to have you alone now, I don't like so many people around me." Lihua glanced at Chun'er thoughtfully, and suddenly felt that there was something different between the girl's low eyebrows and pleasing eyes .

While talking, the two had already reached the street corner, and a shout came from their ears: "Hot pot! Hot pot! One sip to warm your heart, two sips to warm your body!"

"It's mutton soup!" Lihua smelled it as soon as she smelled it, and said happily, "It's so delicious! Drinking a bowl of mutton soup in such a cold day will be delicious!"

"Ma'am," Chun'er hurriedly pulled her and said in a low voice, "The things outside are not clean, just look at them, don't really eat them!"

"I don't have so many taboos, it's just like the roadside stall! People have come out, and it smells again, it's a waste not to eat! Let's go!" Lihua couldn't help but pull Chun'er towards the stall. go.

The stall was leaning against the eaves of a small tavern, with three or two pieces of felt cloth to block the cold wind at night, and four or five small tables were arranged inside, and there were three or five customers who looked like merchants eating happily.Suddenly two female customers came, not only the boss's eyes lit up, but also the guests were quite surprised.

Although Lihua was wrapped in a cloak, she couldn't see what she was wearing underneath, but the cloak was made of silver fox fur, and anyone with a discerning eye could tell it was high-grade.Looking at her headdress, she seems to be the wife of a rich family.These guests couldn't help taking a few more glances.

Lihua didn't take it seriously, went in, pulled Chun'er to sit down, and then shouted to the boss: "We're here, don't you want to say hello?" Lihua was eating happily, shook her head and said: "The mouth grows on other people, let him talk about it." Hurry up and try it, this hot sauce tastes really good!"

Chun'er frowned slightly, wondering why the mistress was so greedy?Could it be that someone from the countryside who has never seen the world is so happy just looking at a bowl of mutton soup?Forget it, let her leave quickly after eating, so as not to cause any trouble!
At this time, Lihua raised her head and looked at her and asked, "Don't you want to eat?" She forced a smile and said, "The slaves have eaten dinner, and their stomachs are still full, and they can't hold it!" Lihua took her bowl readily and smiled. Said: "Don't waste it if you can eat it! This mutton soup tastes good, it can compare to Huangjia mutton!"

The man stood up unsteadily just now, and returned to his table with a handful of silver jugs.Chun'er shouted vigilantly: "Did you hear that? Go away! Who told you to come here?"

The man glanced at Chun'er disdainfully, sat down at the table unceremoniously, smiled at Lihua who was immersed in the soup, and said with a little drunkenness: "Little lady, eat meat and drink alone. The soup is so deserted! My brother has wine here, how about we have a few drinks?"

Lihua bowed her head and didn't answer, she continued to eat her own food.Chun'er reprimanded angrily: "Where did you come from? Go back! Be careful that you won't know if you get into trouble!"

"Little girl!" The man couldn't help shouting angrily, "What does it have to do with you? I talked to the little lady, but I didn't tell you. Why are you imitating a crow?"

"I can tell you, you can't afford to offend this person in front of you, you'd better stay away!"

"Can't afford it?" The man's drunken eyes looked at Lihua twice, and said in a teasing tone, "Isn't she the girl from the Ou Xinguan? She doesn't look like an old person, but Are you new to Jingyou City? My brother is in a good mood tonight, how about giving you a night?"

"Presumptuous!" Chun'er stood up suddenly, and shouted with a serious face.Who would have thought that this man drank a few more glasses by himself, slapped the table and stood up, pointed at Chun'er and scolded: "Where did you come from, a naughty little whore! What kind of pretense are you pretending to be in front of me? A little girl from the Ou Xinguan Movies, after reaching the top of the sky, they will only be a skinny seller!"

Chun'er was furious when she heard this, and squinted at Lihua who was sitting next to her, and found that the mistress seemed to be fine, neither angry nor angry, leisurely eating the few sheep intestines left in the bowl .Chun'er is a little confused, is this a country woman who has never seen the world and only knows how to eat and drink, or is she too frightened to speak?Why not take the opportunity to find out about this woman?So Chun'er deliberately grabbed the chopstick cage on the table and threw it at the man's face.

Hearing an ouch, the man covered his cheeks and bent down.A companion next to her pointed at Chun'er and said, "This little girl can still fight? I really don't know how high the heavens are!"

"So what's the matter? If you dare to mess with my wife, you are asking for your own death!" Chun'er retorted.

"Fuck you!" The man who was smashed was really angry, he threw the flagon in his hand, and reached out to grab Chun'er.Chun'er hurriedly hid behind Lihua, pretending to be scared and said, "Ma'am, look, he is going to beat me up!"

The man refused to give up, wiped his sleeves, and said with a wicked face: "Bullying me from out of town? Huh! I tell you that I am not so easy to bully! Dare to yell at me, I won't clean you up, I can't swallow this breath! Damn girl, come here!"

Chun'er just hid behind Lihua, shrank her head and didn't make a sound.The man sneered and said, "Now you know you're afraid? Just kneel down and admit your mistake to me, or else..."

Before finishing the words, Lihua suddenly got up and poured the remaining soup in the bowl on the man's face, which shocked everyone around her.The man even stood there dumbfounded, pointing at Lihua with one hand and clenched his fist with the other, unable to say a word for a long time!
Seeing this, the boss hurriedly stepped forward to persuade him to make peace, but just as he ran up to him, he was swung away by the man's palm and almost fell into a tumble.Seeing that the man's face was red and he was about to hit him in anger, the two companions at the side hurriedly got up and grabbed him and said, "It's just two women, it won't look good if you really do it, that's all!"

"That's all!" the man shook his companion's hand and yelled angrily, "I am so old that no one dares to splash a drop of water on my face! I still don't believe it, this big family in Jingyou City bullies people, even The little whores in the lotus root hall are also amazing! If they are not dealt with, where will I put my face in the future?"

One of the companions hurriedly waved at Lihua and said, "Young lady, hurry up and leave! My brother is short-tempered, and he doesn't recognize people when he gets angry! You should go away wisely, so you don't have to ask for a beating."

"It's not so easy to leave! Aren't you from the Ou Xinguan? Staying with me for a night, it's worth it!" The man said and stepped forward to pull Lihua, trying to pull Lihua into his arms.Chun'er hid behind Lihua quietly, secretly observing Lihua's reaction.I saw Li Hua sideways avoiding the man, walked straight towards the stove, picked up the big iron spoon that the boss was just scooping up the soup, turned around and said, "I see that your wine is not sober, why don't I wake it up for you!"

"you dare……"

"Do you dare to try?" Lihua said with a mocking smile on her face, and stirred the mutton soup pot twice with the spoon in her hand, and a white hot air gushed out instantly.No matter how drunk and angry the man was, he was frightened by the steaming mutton soup pot.

"Yell!" Lihua smiled with one hand on her hip, "Didn't you just yell back at me? Now you're bluffed by a pot of mutton soup?"
