Male superiority and female superiority: forced love

Ruan Chuyin touched the ingot with trembling hands. It was cold and heavy. Although it was still a long way from being enough for Hai Dongqing to deliver the message, it was definitely enough to ask someone to run an errand.

"Meng Huali, you are so kind, thank you!"

It doesn’t cost any money to give you a few more compliments, so you can get more money in the future.

When she returns to her husband, he will be in trouble!

The tall figure shuddered, and with a slight sidelong glance, he said uncomfortably, "Follow me."

The relationship between the two became increasingly strange from this moment on, and they suddenly changed from being targets of pursuit to "comrades" who shared weal and woe.

Afterwards, Ruan Chuyin took him to an embroidery workshop, but did not go in. Instead, she sat down in a corner.

"Why are you bringing me here?" Meng Huali asked in confusion.

"Don't be in a hurry. Stand aside, you're blocking my view." Ruan Chuyin pushed him aside, staring at the door of the embroidery workshop without blinking.

After a while, two ladies came out one after the other. One was younger, looking about thirty years old, holding a purse in her hand, while the other was older, about fifty years old, carrying a basket.

Ruan Chuyin hesitated for a moment, then pulled Meng Huali to follow the older woman.

Li Xiuer was about to go home for lunch and was surprised that someone came to see her.

One of the men had a pair of purple eyes. If there hadn't been a delicate masked lady standing next to him, he would have screamed out of fear.

"Auntie, our clothes are torn. Can you see if you can mend them? How much does it cost?" Ruan Chuyin pointed to the damaged parts of her clothes and asked sweetly.

Meng Huali was shocked.

No way? She wanted him to wear patched clothes? He now seriously doubted whether this woman was the Crown Princess of Dayong.

Li Xiuer was stunned. How did she know that she could embroider? She became alert.

"Auntie, don't worry too much. I was planning to go to the embroidery workshop to mend my clothes. I happened to see you coming out so I followed you to ask. To be honest, we just entered the city yesterday. We had some problems on the way and our luggage was lost. If it's not too expensive, I'd like to ask for your help." Ruan Chuyin thought that if she could mend her clothes, she would mend them. She didn't know how many "Half Moon" cloaks her clothes were worth.

After hearing this, Li Xiuer began to look at their clothes.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he stared at Meng Huali's black robe in disbelief, so shocked that he couldn't move his eyes.

My goodness, who is this man? He is dressed more respectably than the high-ranking officials from the capital.

Looking at the quality of the noble lady's clothing, it was also a piece of fine material that was worth a fortune.

Judging from the damage, I'm afraid they weren't lying and might have really encountered something terrible on the road.

"Auntie, can it be mended?" Ruan Chuyin became a little anxious when she saw her standing there in a daze.

Li Xiu'er thought for a moment and replied, "Miss, your dress has quite a lot of thread. Most of it can be reattached with a needle, but there are two large tears that are difficult to repair. I don't have matching silk thread on hand. How about embroidering two snow plum blossoms like the one on your lapel?"

"Okay, okay! As long as it can be repaired!" Ruan Chuyin was very happy and agreed repeatedly.

"As for this young man, the hole on his right shoulder is too big, and I'm afraid this material can't be found in the entire Xueyin Town." Li Xiuer had never worked on such luxurious materials before, and she felt itchy in her heart.

"Is there any way? Like, maybe embroider something to cover it up?" Ruan Chuyin recognized that the piece Meng Huali was wearing was the real king of the clothing world. If she couldn't keep it, she couldn't throw it away. She could dismantle it and make some small pieces to make the most of it.

Li Xiu'er circled Meng Huali several times and thought, "If you're willing, how about embroidering the same pattern on both sides? I wonder what you like?"

Meng Huali didn't expect that he could really make up for it. After a long while, he replied with two words: "Crane Feather."

"He Yu? This man has quite good taste." Ruan Chuyin glanced at him secretly, then turned sideways to Li Xiu'er and asked, "Auntie, I wonder...how much does it cost?"

"It's fate that we met, so five... Never mind, three taels. But you have to wait two hours." Li Xiuer glanced at the pair of black embroidered shoes on Ruan Chuyin's feet, and thought that they must be in a difficult situation, so she reduced the price by another two taels.

"Ten taels, one hour." Meng Huali readily took out the silver and stuffed it into her basket.

Li Xiuer was surprised, but she thought that the young couple must have a lot of spare money, so she agreed without hesitation.

So she took them home and packed lunch. She also had her husband wipe Ruan Chuyin's embroidered shoes carefully with a damp cloth. Although they were still dusty, they looked much cleaner than before.

With the silver as motivation, the two pieces of clothing were repaired in less than an hour.

Meng Huali looked at the new robe and couldn't help but look at the little fox again. As he looked at it, he suddenly blushed.

How could this woman live so well?
