There are also men from the northwest who are tall and strong with loud voices.

If you shout, you can hear it halfway down the street.

Doubao and his two siblings had never seen such a bustling city scene.

Although he had gone shopping with the third master in the capital before, it was naturally different when he was under the emperor's feet.

Today, this primitive, rough streetscape, small stalls, and streets are not as grand and neat as those in the capital.

It looks more vibrant.

The three children couldn't put their feelings into words for a moment, but they watched without blinking.

Little do they know that they find everything interesting and fresh when they see others.

Others looked at them in amazement.

When did a place like Ning County have these kinds of mythical characters that only appear in storybooks and New Year pictures?

Just by looking at the way he is dressed, you can tell that he is either rich or noble.

Not to mention these three children, they are so good-looking, just like the golden boy and jade girl under the seat of Guanyin Bodhisattva in the painting.

The skin was white, whiter than milk.

I feel like if the wind blows a little stronger, it can melt people.

There is also a woman standing next to the three children, who is dressed in luxurious clothes and wearing a veil. Although her appearance cannot be seen clearly, one can tell at a glance that she is definitely a great beauty.

After all, the maids serving behind and beside her were all beautiful and charming.

Not to mention the dozen or so burly men following behind, all with knives on their waists and sharp eyes, who looked like they were not to be trifled with.

Everyone was smart and knew at a glance that these people were probably from prominent families, and no one knew which noble person's family they were.

For a moment, the shouting on the street became quieter, and everyone forced themselves into an attentive smile.

Seeing that the three siblings were curious about everything they looked at, Lu Zhenzhen didn't stop them. She just held Chengzi's hand, and then signaled Doubao and Tangyuan to hold Dingxiang's hands. They could tell them in advance where they were going, and they could go together. Running around was absolutely not allowed.

Back when they were in Beijing, Lu Zhenzhen had educated the Doubao siblings about the consequences of going out without servants or deliberately hiding, as they would be taken away by beggars.

He even asked Fu Zhiyi to find the little beggars who were taken away by the beggars and deliberately crippled.

I took Doubao and his two siblings to see the miserable plight of those little beggars.

After seeing those things, Doubao and his two siblings realized that there were such terrible things in this world.

From then on, Doubao and his two siblings went a little too far when they went out. They felt insecure without seven, eight or ten people around them.

Afraid of being kidnapped.

At this moment, he naturally held Dingxiang's hand tightly, and looked back every two steps to confirm whether Lu Zhenzhen and the guards who followed her were still behind him.

The three siblings approached a stall selling yak jerky in such a cautious and grand manner.

The stall was run by a woman who looked to be about thirty years old. She was wearing a quilted gown, a piece of floral cloth wrapped around her head, and had two red spots on her cheeks.

Seeing the three siblings standing in front of her stall, the usually confident proprietress stood up a little awkwardly, rubbing her hands and asking in a hoarse voice, "Three young nobles, what would you like to see? I sell yak jerky here, homemade, fragrant and chewy. Would you like to try it?"

As he spoke, he took a knife and cut three small pieces from a long piece of dried meat and handed them to the three siblings.

The three siblings were eager to try, but their first reaction was to look back at Lu Zhenzhen.

One of the safety precautions lessons their mother taught them was that they shouldn't eat anything given by outsiders, for fear that it might be drugged.

But the dried meat looks bright red in color and smells fragrant. It looks delicious and I want to eat it.

The lady boss of the yak jerky shop saw that the three children didn't take the offer, then she realized something and hurriedly explained, "We've been selling this jerky for years. The whole Ning County knows it. It's not only delicious, but also clean—"

Lu Zhenzhen had noticed it a long time ago. Although the proprietress had a darker skin, her clothes were clean, and the fingernails on her outstretched hand were trimmed very short, and the gaps between her fingernails were relatively clean.

So she nodded towards the three siblings and said, "Auntie, please try it. What do you want to say?"

The three siblings took the three pieces of jerky from the boss lady and said in unison, "Thank you, Auntie."

The proprietress was a little bewildered for a moment, her face showing a bit of panic. She waved her hands hurriedly: "Oh, I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it. You are too polite, my dear young masters. I don't deserve a thank you! How about I give you something else?"

The proprietress had seen many domineering nobles, but it was rare to see such a polite and courteous noble. She felt a little uneasy.

I always feel that there must be something wrong when things are out of the ordinary. He is so polite, could it be that he has a bigger agenda?

But she only sells yak heads, what could she possibly do to the noble?

After thinking about it, it was just her dried meat.

I suddenly became nervous, thinking that if I gave some away, I could still keep some for myself and sell it for money?

Lu Zhenzhen had no idea that the proprietress had already imagined so much in such a short time.

I was watching the three Doubao siblings chewing on dried meat.

The dried meat was so hard from being sun-dried that it took a lot of effort for Doubao and Tangyuan to tear off a piece of meat.

Poor Orange. Although her baby teeth have all grown out, she has never chewed anything so hard.

I ground the meat with my teeth for a long time, my face turned red, but the dried meat was still intact.

It's really not that harmful, but it's extremely insulting.

Even so, Orange couldn't bear to throw away the dried meat.

Lu Zhenzhen knew that the dried meat tasted good.

I walked a few steps forward and asked the lady boss, "Sister, how much is this dried meat? How much is it?"

The proprietress looked at Lu Zhenzhen tremblingly and said with a smile: "Give it to me, my dear..."

Lu Zhenzhen frowned.

He gestured to Dingxiang next to him.

Ding Xiang stepped forward with her hands on her hips. "No, what do you mean, big sister? You look down on us, don't you? Are we the ones who can't afford your dried meat?"

After Dingxiang's question, the proprietress's expression actually looked much better.

He gestured and whispered, "I have 23 pounds of dried meat here. If you want all of it, five taels, no, four taels of silver will be enough."

Ding Xiang snorted, took out a five-liang silver ingot from her purse, and threw it into the proprietress's arms: "Five liang is five liang."

After saying this, he continued with a look of dismay, "How do you do business? You should charge what you are owed. We are a wealthy family, so it's okay if we're short of a few taels of silver. But you have a small business, and if you're short of a few taels of silver, your capital won't be enough, right? It's only because our master is kind, otherwise you wouldn't have lost a lot of money."

The proprietress was delighted as she held the five-liang silver ingot in her hand.

Even though Dingxiang's tone was not very good at the moment, she still found it pleasant to hear.

What's more, she has been doing business for so many years and has some ability to recognize people.

Knowing that Dingxiang meant well and was willing to give five taels of silver, he knew she was a very good person.

He just smiled and listened to Dingxiang's preaching without saying a word.

He put the silver in his arms, and quickly put all the dried meat on the stall into a backpack and handed it to Dingxiang.

He kowtowed repeatedly to Lu Zhenzhen and the three Doubao siblings: "Thank you for your honor, thank you——"
