I was flattered after crossing

Chapter 71: Young people don’t know how beautiful younger people are~

I walked quickly to her, took the packet of osmanthus tea from Ah Fu, handed it to her, and said, "This is the finest tea I bought this morning. Take it home and try it."

She took the tea leaves with a smile and thanked him happily: "Thank you, Xiaoxu. I'll make some tea when I get back." Then she mounted the horse swiftly, whipped the horse and drove away, leaving behind a string of crisp horse hoof sounds echoing in her ears.

When I turned around and was about to go back to the store, my eyes happened to fall on the man in a crimson purple robe standing outside the store.

He stood tall and majestic in the bustling crowd, attracting a lot of attention, and cast his eyes towards me. Seeing this, I waved my hands to him with joy and shouted enthusiastically: "Mr. Wang..., please come to the store and rest for a while!"

At this moment, all the people who had gathered at the door focused their attention on me and Xiao Zhengxuan. Uh... This scene is indeed quite romantic... Xiao Zhengxuan walked towards me slowly with a smile on his face and elegant steps, but his slightly red earlobes had already exposed his true thoughts. And Seventeen, who followed closely behind him, lowered his head and followed his master closely.

Seeing the master and servant in front of me, I really couldn't help wanting to laugh out loud, but I felt that this seemed a little inappropriate, so I had to hold back my laughter and almost hurt myself.

At this moment, the shop was crowded and noisy. Shopkeeper Xu stood behind the counter, holding scissors and skillfully cutting the cloth; Lei Lei was eloquent, praising the effect of the customers after trying on the clothes; Ah Fu was also busy, constantly shuttling among the crowd, pouring water for the endless stream of customers, and handing candies to the children who came to join in the fun. Even Uncle Li, who usually lived in seclusion, made an exception and walked out of the back hall to the counter, and methodically directed several apprentices to measure the sizes of the customers and select the cloth.

The most lively place was where Ye Lan was. He was surrounded by people, three layers inside and three layers outside. Although his neck was slightly red, he remained calm on the surface, as if he was not affected at all, and his inner panic was perfectly concealed.

Xiao Zhengxuan watched the bustling scene in the store, leaned close to my ear and whispered, "It seems that my livelihood in the future will really depend on the princess~"

Hearing this, I raised my head, patted my chest confidently and responded: "How is it? Has my sister ever lied to you?"

"Sister is so awesome!" Xiao Zhengxuan responded to my words very cooperatively.

After hearing this, I felt as if I had tinnitus and my heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably. The scene in front of me became blurry, as if there were many phantoms. I shook my head vigorously, trying to wake myself up, and quickly looked in the direction of Lei Lei.

I clearly remember that Leilei once said to me: "Young people don't know how beautiful younger people are~" These few simple words, at this moment, are running wild in my mind like a wild horse that has broken free from its reins, leaving me at a loss and not knowing how to respond.

Just when I was in a dilemma, Shopkeeper Xu happened to look up and saw Xiao Zhengxuan. He immediately stood up and greeted him enthusiastically, "Hey, Master, you are here!"

"Shopkeeper Xu, please go ahead and do your thing. Don't worry about me. I'll be leaving in a moment." Xiao Zhengxuan responded to the shopkeeper politely.

"Okay~ Then I'll go entertain other guests first~" Before he finished speaking, Shopkeeper Xu turned around and dived into the mountain of cloth.

"Ahfu~ bring me two cups of tea!" I shouted at Ahfu at the top of my voice.

"Hey~ I'm here~" Hearing the call, Ah Fu hurried over with a tray.

However, when he approached, he was suddenly surprised to find that it was his own prince who came. He immediately became stammering and could not even speak clearly: "Prince...Prince..."

"Ahfu, why don't you pass the tea to Young Master Wang and Young Master Seventeen who is standing beside him!" Seeing this, I quickly took over Ahfu's words.

Xiao Zhengxuan took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "The princess is really thoughtful. The surroundings are so elegantly decorated, and they match the fragrance of tea perfectly. If you just wander around the store and come back empty-handed, wouldn't it be a great pity!"

"Thank you for your praise, Your Highness~" I bowed slightly to express my gratitude.

However, at this moment, an idea suddenly flashed through my mind! So I grabbed Xiao Zhengxuan and said excitedly: "Your Majesty, you are really amazing!" Before I finished speaking, I left Xiao Zhengxuan and turned around and walked quickly to where Uncle Li was.

"Uncle Li! Come with me quickly~" I took two steps at a time, walked forward, held Uncle Li's arm tightly, and walked straight into the store.

"What happened, Princess?" Uncle Li still held a brush in his right hand and looked at me with confusion on his face.

"Uncle Li, in the future, we must not throw away the leftover scraps of fabric from making clothes for customers. We can use them to make purses! And then put seasonal dried flowers in the purses, for example, you can put some osmanthus in it now, so that you can take it out and sell it separately!" I raised my eyebrows and asked Uncle Li if he understood what I meant.

"Oh, you are really smart! The fabrics used in our clothing production are all of the best quality, and the labor cost is also very high. Therefore, many people can only look on and stay away.

However, this purse is very different. It not only carries the meaning of love, but also has extraordinary significance. Moreover, its price is far less expensive than ready-made clothes, so it will definitely be favored and loved by most people!" Uncle Li said excitedly.

"Hehehe~ I love hearing you praise me the most. Come on, let's go out and measure the clothes~" I smiled and happily pulled Uncle Li out.

"Oh my, wait, what was the size just now... Oh my, two feet? Or two feet and one?" Uncle Li was supported by me, muttering to himself.

At this time, Xiao Zhengxuan looked at me walking towards him confidently and couldn't help asking, "Sister, I guess you have come up with a new way to make money, right?"

"This is all thanks to your contribution~" I turned to Xiao Zhengxuan and said.

"Then should my brother get some reward?" He suddenly leaned down and whispered to me.

I felt a little flustered and looked around nervously, secretly thanking my luck that the customers in the store were either concentrating on choosing fabrics or admiring Ye Lan, and no one was looking at me.

I didn't dare to look at him any more, and quickly said, "There is a reward. If all these purses can be sold, all the proceeds will belong to you!" Hearing this, Xiao Zhengxuan straightened up, looked at me with interest, and raised his lips slightly: "Purse?"

I was a little embarrassed, and explained with a cough: "Uh... didn't you just mention that in the face of such a beautiful scenery, it would be difficult to keep this beautiful memory if you don't buy something as a souvenir.

So I thought about making some purses. After all, these small items with a low unit price should be easier to sell...” When I said this, I kept my head down and didn’t dare to look him in the eye, because I knew that my face would turn red again.

"Brother doesn't want silver, he just wants you to sew a purse for him personally. I wonder if you are willing?" Xiao Zhengxuan bent down again and asked softly.

"Okay, okay, of course no problem, just stand up straight~" I hurriedly reached out and pushed him, trying to get him to stand up again.

However, he did not move, but continued to ask: "Then before the wedding, can you give the purse to me? I hope to wear it on my wedding day!" As he spoke, he suddenly grabbed my hand and shook it gently.

"Wow~"

After hearing the sound, I turned my head and was surprised to find Leilei barking like a dog towards us.

At this moment, I couldn't help but sigh that there is actually such a person in this world! If I had known this, I shouldn't have tried so hard to save her! I'll make her miserable when I get home!

I turned around and immediately persuaded Xiao Zhengxuan: "Okay, okay, when I go back, I will use my favorite green Ruyi to make you an exquisite purse. What do you think?" While pushing Xiao Zhengxuan hard, I secretly prayed that he could return to normal as soon as possible.

"Are you serious, Princess?" Xiao Zhengxuan asked me, staring at me with fiery eyes.

I quickly replied, "Of course it's true! If I lied to you, I would be willing to become a puppy."

He seemed to suddenly remember something, turned his head, and stared at Lei Lei with flickering eyes.

"Uh... no, to be precise, if I lied to you, I would become a real puppy!" I quickly reached out and turned his face around.

"If you dare to lie to me, I will..." Xiao Zhengxuan's eyes revealed a chilling, cannibalistic look, but in an instant he returned to his usual calm appearance, and said softly: "Then what can I do to the princess?" As soon as he finished speaking, he straightened his body and continued to sip his tea leisurely.

"Uh... there is no place here for His Majesty to rest." I said to him tactfully, looking at the few chairs that were occupied by customers who were choosing fabrics.

"Well, it's already noon. Princess, don't you plan to return home?" Xiao Zhengxuan narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at me with a smile, and asked softly.

I was startled when I heard his question, and I muttered to myself: Oops, I actually forgot the time! So I quickly replied, "Uh... yes, of course... Lei Lei... ah... Miss Ling'er, let's go back."

However, before I could finish my words, I was interrupted by Lei Lei who was busy sorting clothes for other customers. She turned to me and said, "Xiaoxu, please go back first. I have many customers waiting to try on clothes here! I will go back later, don't worry! And please take good care of my Xiaoxu, Master Wang!" As soon as she finished her words, Lei Lei quickly turned her head and continued to focus on the young lady who was trying on clothes.

Faced with such a situation, I could only nod helplessly. Then, I tried to squeeze out a seemingly bright smile, turned to Xiao Zhengxuan and said, "Then let's go back home~" At the same time, I raised my head and looked at Shopkeeper Xu not far away, with a hint of helplessness in my eyes. Then, I said, "Shopkeeper Xu, I'm going back home first, and I'll leave the store to you. You've worked so hard."

Manager Xu seemed to be aware of my mood. He comforted me with a smile: "Oh, Miss Xiaoxu, what are you talking about? You are getting married soon, so you should spend more time and effort on your wedding. Just leave the silk shop to us, and nothing will go wrong!" After that, he waved to us, indicating that we could leave with peace of mind.

"Well, Manager Xu is still far-sighted! As long as everyone works hard, they will be handsomely rewarded in the future." Xiao Zhengxuan said with satisfaction, and he pulled me and walked out of the silk shop.

Shopkeeper Xu responded with a smile on his face: "Thank you for your kindness, Master! I also wish you and your wife a happy marriage like a pair of wild geese flying side by side, and never separate."

"Hahaha, thank you very much for the good wishes, Manager Xu!" Xiao Zhengxuan laughed and answered as he walked.

Seeing his cynical look, I couldn't help but sigh inwardly, what a typical image of a dandy boy... However, at this moment, in addition to being somewhat speechless about Xiao Zhengxuan's behavior, my stomach, which had been rumbling with hunger for a long time, began to growl...

Xiao Zhengxuan turned his head to look at me, his lips slightly raised, and said jokingly: "In that case, let's go to Qianweilou."

I nodded my head as if I had been pardoned, expressing my agreement, muttering, "I've been busy all morning, and only now do I feel hungry... It's really uncomfortable~"

"By the way, can we order some dishes to be delivered to the Silk Shop?" I asked curiously while looking at Xiao Zhengxuan.

After all, ordering takeout is a very common thing in modern society, but it is not clear whether it is feasible here.

"Of course, just ask for it and someone will naturally deliver the food to the silk shop." Xiao Zhengxuan replied with a smile and led me into Qianwei Tower.

After we sat down, I drank a large cup of chrysanthemum tea first, and then excitedly said to Xiao Zhengxuan and Shiqi: "You don't know, today's scene is really beyond my expectations, it can be so lively!"

"The princess is truly extraordinary. She manages the silk shop so successfully!" Seventeen praised me solemnly with a look of admiration on his face.

Faced with such compliments, I couldn't help but blush, holding my cheeks with my hands and pretending to be shy: "Oh, you all praised me so much today, making me feel a little embarrassed..."

Xiao Zhengxuan and Shiqi were stunned, and they knew that they had overacted. They quickly changed the subject...

Suddenly, I remembered what Chen Qingyue said when I met her today, so I quickly told Xiao Zhengxuan. Xiao Zhengxuan took a sip of the osmanthus wine and said nothing more.

Seeing this, I couldn't help but look at him curiously: "Could it be that Your Majesty also contributed to this?" I asked in a puzzled tone.
