The Emperor was kissed by the Regent and cried again

Shen Jingli said...that he once liked Gu Sichen.

This sentence undoubtedly dealt a heavy blow to Qin Yejue. His lips were pursed into a straight line, and he almost couldn't breathe.

Qin Yejue suppressed the jealousy in his heart and said word by word: "This is not what I want to hear!"

"So...give me some hints?"

"..."

He was speechless for a moment.

Qin Yejue was so angry that he was blinded by jealousy. He walked forward slowly, fearing that Shen Jingli could not catch up, so he walked very slowly.

……

Shen Jingli stared at Qin Yejue's back, curled his fingers unconsciously, and shook his head awkwardly.

She stood there in a daze for a while, and seeing Qin Yejue getting farther and farther away, Shen Jingli hurriedly chased after him.

The distance between the two was neither far nor close.

Shen Jingli followed behind Qin Yejue, racking her brains to come up with some coaxing words, but her thoughts were repeatedly interrupted by the hawkers' shouting.

"We have freshly baked steamed buns. Come by and have one if you pass by!!"

“The shop has iced Leng Yuanzi, which is refreshing, delicious, sweet and soft~”

"Selling hat tops! Selling hat tops!!"

……

At this moment, Shen Jingli's mind was full of steamed buns, cold yuanzi and other foods. She didn't want to be disturbed by the outside world, so she had to cover her ears.

There is a night market in Xixu City. It is now 11 o'clock, and there are more people on the streets than during the day. She shuttles among the bustling crowd, thinking of ideas as she walks.

She looked at the ground and walked slowly.

……

Suddenly, Shen Jingli had an idea. Maybe... he could buy some meaningful small gifts for Qin Yejue to show his love.

She searched for the silver and money on her body, turned it over, and found that she only had eight cents.

It’s so auspicious!!

Shen Jingli had a headache. He and Qin Yejue were so inseparable some time ago, why didn't they get any money from him? ?

Miscalculation. Miscalculation.

She held the eight cents in her hand and shook her head helplessly. What could she do with such little money? !

Shen Jingli passed by the rose pastry stall and was seduced by the rich aroma. She looked up and swallowed hard.

This pastry is actually carved into the shape of a rose. It is so ingenious and exquisite. "Boss, how much for two?"

If you love him, you should give him roses.

Sending this food is quite timely...

The stall owner was delighted and introduced: "Girl, this rose pastry is our signature dish. If it doesn't taste good, you can hit me. It's 100 coins each, buy five and get one free."

"Goodbye boss."

When he heard that the price was only one hundred coins each, Shen Jingli quickened his pace. Oh my God, the prices are so high.

She only had eight cents, not to mention buying two, even half was not enough!!

A purse vendor noticed the dejected Shen Jingli and called out cheerfully, "Little girl with your head down, do you want to come over and take a look at the embroidered purses?"

Shen Jingli tilted his head and asked, "Eight cents per person?"

"..."

The stall owner smiled awkwardly, thinking that he was hallucinating. Her purse was made of fine fabric and silk thread, and it would cost at least a tael of silver.

She looked at Shen Jingli's expectant eyes and almost agreed. The stall owner realized that something was wrong. Tonight, she was here to sell things! Not to do charity! !

She waved her hand firmly: "Goodbye, girl."

"Oh." Shen Jingli felt disappointed and hung his head for a moment.

The female stall owner couldn't bear it, so she pointed ahead and said, "...Girl, you can go to the opposite side and have a look. The quality of their products is not that good, but their prices are cheaper."

"..."

After hearing this, Shen Jingli came to the purse stall opposite. The stall owner was a young man with raised eyebrows and a shrewd look.

Shen Jingli looked around and picked up a purse embroidered with the word "peace" and asked, "Boss, how much is this?"

Compared to those floral and bird patterns, this purse embroidered with the word "peace" looks quite affordable!

It just so happens that she hopes Qin Yejue is safe and sound.

Seeing that Shen Jingli looked unfamiliar and noble, the stall owner offered a high price: "Miss, one tael of silver."

Shen Jingli was surprised: "What!? One tael!? Is it so expensive?!"

So... the stall owner treated her like a fish! ?

[Shuiyu: Also known as turtle, in Guangdong, it refers to a foolish person who is easily deceived. ]

"Girl, the fabric used for this purse is brocade. Feel it and see how it feels. How is it expensive?"

Shen Jingli didn't want to touch it, so she raised a standard smile and asked, "Handsome boss, what can I buy from you for eight cents!?"

"I bought a sentence: Go slowly, girl."

"..."

Shen Jingli took a deep breath and thought, forget it, forget it, forget it, eight cents for buying a purse, this money is only enough to buy candied haws.

To show your sincerity, you can buy two strings! !

Seeing Shen Jingli was about to leave, the stall owner hurriedly called her, "Hey, hey, hey, girl, please stay a moment."

Shen Jingli's eyes were filled with joy. She turned around suddenly and said excitedly: "Boss, are you willing to sell it? Please keep the eight cents. You are a good person..."

Shen Jingli handed eight cents to the stall owner, but he didn't take it. Instead, he took out another purse from underneath.

"Girl, it's like this. A few days ago, my wife accidentally cut this purse that hadn't been embroidered yet. I gave you eight cents."

Shen Jingli looked at the torn purse and hesitated. It was forked in the middle and would not look good if sewn up. She hesitated: "But... it's already cut like this, it won't look good if sewn up."

The stall owner said bluntly: "Girl, if it looks good when sewn, I can give it to you for eight cents!?"

Shen Jingli: “…”

The stall owner originally planned to throw away the purse, but he was reluctant to part with such high-quality cloth, so he put it aside.

Shen Jingli also felt that what the stall owner said made sense. Even if it was rotten, it could be sewn up anyway.

"…Then you need to give me some needlework."

Hearing that Shen Jingli was willing to buy it, the stall owner squatted down to look for needles and thread, "Okay, okay, I'll wrap the needles and thread in paper for you, and put it in the purse. Be careful when you take it, the purse leaks air."

She took it, "Thank you, boss."

Then, Shen Jingli happily put the purse into her arms. As soon as she turned around, she exclaimed.

"Eh!? Where's Qin...Qin Yejue?"

Shen Jingli looked around but didn't see Qin Yejue. Just now, he had wasted a lot of time choosing a gift for him.

Oops, I lost the person...

Qin Yejue was not far away, and he saw Shen Jingli looking around...

……

Seeing Shen Jingli's anxiety and panic, Qin Yejue couldn't help but sigh silently in his heart. It was a waste of time that he had specially found such a conspicuous position.

She can actually ignore it accurately!!

……

Qin Yejue had no choice but to return the same way with a gloomy face.

If she continued to look for him like this, she would definitely not be able to find him in an hour or so. Qin Yejue quickly walked behind Shen Jingli and asked, "Why don't you catch up with us?"

After hearing the familiar voice, Shen Jingli's face lit up with joy and she turned around happily.
