Male superiority and female superiority: forced love

Jubaozhai, the largest treasure house in Zouma Street, is also the largest treasure house in Furong Town.

There are all kinds of goods in it, but the most famous ones are their four treasures of the study.

Ruan Chuyin didn't quite understand the preferences of men here, so she asked Qin Guanzhi to help her with advice throughout the whole process.

He chose three high-end gifts: Yulin wine, smoky quartz chess pieces and a tourmaline lotus-shaped ornament.

"Guanzhi, why did you choose this?" Ruan Chuyin asked in confusion, staring at the pink Baoliansu in her palm. Men would like this too?

"This is bought for Kong Huiyin's wife Lu Yuhe. As her name suggests, she has always loved lotus flowers, and her favorite food is lotus pastry." Qin Guanzhi took out two large silver bills from his sleeve and handed them to the clerk as he spoke.

Ruan Chuyin looked at the number above with fear and trepidation, then silently lowered her head and looked at the treasure in her hand again.

It’s incredible. Such a small one costs 1,800 taels, which is equivalent to half a “gold brick” in Lanshan Pavilion.

Looking at the palm-sized wine flask and the two boxes of smoky quartz chess pieces, I suddenly felt that life was meaningless.

What is luxury?

The three things in front of you are that every detail shows extraordinary quality, ingenuity and timelessness.

"Guanzhi, do you know Mrs. Kong?" she asked curiously.

"I don't know her. It's well known that she likes lotus cakes. It is said that in order to marry her, Kong Huiyin visited her every day and brought her a plate of lotus cakes he made himself. Three years later, they finally got married." Qin Guanzhi told him everything he knew.

"Master Kong is such a good man." Ruan Chuyin praised.

Qin Guanzhi nodded in agreement. As a husband, Kong Huiyin was indeed a rare good man.

Suddenly, he seemed to realize something, took Ruan Chuyin's hand and said with a smile: "Chuyin, Master Kong only knows how to make lotus cakes, but I can make more than just lotus cakes. I'll make them for you every day from now on."

"Okay!" Ruan Chuyin smiled brightly, but when she thought of his cooking skills, she felt that it was enough that Qin Guanzhi had this intention.

Walking out of Jubaozhai, Fuxiang Pavilion is right across the street.

Qin Guanzhi remembered that Ruan Chuyin's rose water was almost used up, so he took her inside.

Fuxiang Pavilion is one of the best spice shops in Furong Town. It not only sells a variety of perfumes and lotions, but also sells some spice raw materials that are not usually available on the market.

The two-story building covers an area of ​​approximately 2,000 square meters. Why would a spice shop be so large? It's because there's a ferry port in the backyard, where merchant ships unload their cargo and it also serves as a storage facility.

"Hatsune, do you have any that you like?" Qin Guanzhi smelled four or five bottles of rose water, but he always felt that they were a little different from the one Ruan Chuyin was using now.

Ruan Chuyin was not so insistent on using rose dew, so she chose a bottle of jasmine flavor, which surprised Qin Guanzhi.

After pondering it silently for a while, he finally understood and asked his waiter to bring him a bottle of each flavor.

When paying the bill, Ruan Chuyin was shocked again by the row of numbers listed on the abacus.

Good spices always take the high-end route of being small, exquisite and high-end no matter where they are placed.

Ruan Chuyin remembered an advertisement she had seen before: One drop is for beauty, two drops are for lover, and three drops are enough to cause a romantic affair.

Qin Guanzhi bought twelve bottles for him.

In the dark, several pairs of eyes were silently watching their movements.

Suddenly, a child pulled his mother and shouted, "Mom, look! The clothes over there are so beautiful! They sparkle and shimmer, just like the feathered clothes worn by fairies."

The guests in the building were immediately attracted by the innocent child's voice, and saw seven novel dresses hanging on the east wall.

"Hey, does Fuxianglou also sell ready-made clothes?" A woman in yellow walked up behind Ruan Chuyin and asked the waiter.

Chen Chen looked at the women's skirts that suddenly appeared, rubbed his eyes, and nodded blankly: "Yes...ah!"

After saying that, he quickly turned around and checked the purchase register for this month.

Strange, why is there no record? Did Mr. Qian forget to write it down?

Suddenly, a beautiful middle-aged woman appeared from nowhere and greeted the guests who came forward to ask questions with a smile on their faces.

Chen Chen blinked, pulled another waiter over and asked suspiciously, "Is that lady from our building?"

"Yes, Mr. Qian just hired him this morning. He was hired with a large salary!" The waiter whispered mysteriously in his ear.

It turned out to be the case.

Seeing Ruan Chuyin's eyes fixed on those dresses, Chen Chen said attentively, "My dear lady, if you like any of these, come and take a look. I'll give you a discount later."

Fuxianglou had a rule that anyone who bought at least 1,000 taels of silver that day would receive a 10% discount. Qin Guanzhi's payment was only 20 taels short of that amount.

Qin Guanzhi silently glanced at Ruan Chuyin's white shirt. She was indeed wearing very few clothes, so he pulled her over without hesitation.

The beautiful woman saw out of the corner of her eye that the target was approaching little by little, and the smile in her eyes deepened.

He put his right hand behind his back and made a gesture, and three young men dressed as waiters walked out in an instant.

Their looks were very pretty, and they immediately attracted the attention of a group of noble ladies, causing the number of people surrounding the beautiful woman to drop by two-thirds.

"My dear lady, the things hanging on the wall are all new goods that just arrived from the merchant ship yesterday. Which one do you like? I'll take it down for you to try on," Meng Wantang recommended with a smile. His eyes flashed, and he kept secretly observing the woman the Pavilion Master loved.

She has smooth skin, a charming figure, a pair of plump and well-proportioned breasts, and two long, straight and slender legs, which make her look even taller. No wonder the Pavilion Master took so much trouble to arrange the entire street, determined to get her back at all costs.

If she were a man, she would have snatched it too! Suddenly, I became a little curious about Ruan Chuyin's appearance under the veil.

"I wonder if there's only one dress here?" Ruan Chuyin asked. If there was only one, she wouldn't want it.

Meng Wantang was startled, as if he had guessed her thoughts, and didn't dare to nod easily. His palms were sweating, afraid to miss such a good opportunity.

"My dear lady, are you not satisfied with these clothes? We have other ones in our building. I will get them for you right away." At this time, another middle-aged beautiful woman came out from behind with a smile, said a few words of comfort, and took down three dresses from upstairs that were more luxurious than those downstairs.

Meng Wantang couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, Hongxiu was smart, otherwise the situation would have been ruined.

But where did these three dresses come from? She couldn't help but secretly admire the landlord's wisdom.

It has to be said that Wei Jiusi has a very high aesthetic sense. The three brand new dresses now placed in front of Ruan Chuyin are so attractive that no woman would refuse them.

"so beautiful!"

Ruan Chuyin's reaction made the two beautiful women breathe a sigh of relief.

Qin Guanzhi took out the money without saying a word, which made Meng Wantang and Yu Hongxiu nervous again.

Why doesn't this man play by the rules?

"Miss, would you like to try them on first to see if they fit? These three pieces are new arrivals and we haven't had time to hang them up yet." Meng Wantang suggested quickly.

Ruan Chuyin thought it made sense. She pointed at the saffron-colored dress and said, "Let's go with this one."

"Okay. Miss, please follow me." Meng Wantang rolled up her skirt and was about to pull her away.

"Wait! Where are you changing?" Qin Guanzhi spoke suddenly, and his big hand instantly grabbed Ruan Chuyin's small hand.

Yu Hongxiu quickly went over and said with a smile, "Look how anxious you are, young master! Are you afraid your wife might get lost in our building? Well, then come with us."

The two beautiful women took them to a side room in the backyard. Coincidentally, several young women came out from inside. When they saw such a handsome young man like Qin Guanzhi standing at the door, they blushed immediately.

"Sir, why don't you wait here for a while? I'll take my lady to change her dress and come out for you to take a good look at her." Meng Wantang joked, glancing secretly at the two young women beside him.

A woman in red blinked her bright eyes and smiled at Qin Guanzhi, "Sir, do you want to go in and take a look? There are only girls in there. Who do you want to see?"

Qin Guanzhi's breath suddenly became unstable, not because of embarrassment, but because of anger.

Seeing this, Ruan Chuyin pulled him over and comforted him, "Guanzhi, I'll come out after I'm done changing."

"Okay." Qin Guanzhi said no more, turned sideways with his back to the woman in red who had just spoken, and snorted in his heart.

Only then did Meng Wantang successfully lead his men into the side wing.

But they never came out again. When Qin Guanzhi rushed in, the huge room was empty, without a single person in sight.
