In the small full season, everything is luxuriant, and there are many pedestrians who take advantage of this time.
Chu Rao sat in the carriage with Ziyan, and she was in a good mood and hummed a little tune.
Ziyan looked at her outfit similar to Chu Rao, and asked curiously: "Madam, why do you want a slave to accompany you, Gongzi, he is also willing to go together." ” "I don't need him to accompany me."
Chu Rao said briskly.
On weekdays, she always wanted to stick to Qi Su, but this time she was choosing a gift for him, how could she let him go.
"Madame is going to Chengtianmen Street?"
"Well, Ziyan, I still owe Qi Su a return gift, do you remember?"
Ziyan shook her head, where would she remember that what Madam said was like a code word, Chu Rao smiled and didn't explain again.
At the beginning, Zhao Fuyan gave a chess book, although she was later picked by Qi Su, but that was Qi Su's act of comforting her, and it was not a serious gift.
Although Ziyan didn't understand the cause, she could understand that Chu Rao wanted to choose a gift, "Madam, what are you going to buy for your son?"
” "Hey, chess." ...
The carriage stopped at the intersection of Chengtianmen Street, and Chu Rao and Ziyan disguised themselves as a pair of sisters and began to wander along the straight street.
Since she was hiding from Qi Su, she could only deliberately choose some shops without the word Jin Shang, so that after walking around for a long time, she actually found three or four small bookstores.
The shop is a middle-aged man, with his elbows propped up on the table, drowsy with spring sleepiness.
Chu Rao took the curtain fence, and the purple smoke on the side shouted for her, "May I ask the shopkeeper?"
The shopkeeper squinted and looked up when he heard the sound, they were two little maids dressed in ordinary clothes, one couldn't see his face, and the other opened his mouth with a very delicate look.
"What kind of notebook do you want to buy?
Small shops have everything.
"The young girl came mostly to buy private scripts, and the shopkeeper had seen a lot, so she asked of course.
"Shopkeeper, my wife wants a chess game, is there anything here?"
"What kind of game?"
Chu Rao, who didn't speak, couldn't help but speak, and she didn't know how to describe it, so she said: "It's best to have one copy of the entire Ming Yin Dynasty, the kind that is old and precious." ” The shopkeeper couldn't see Chu Rao's appearance, but her voice was like a pearl falling on a jade plate, crisp and tactful, and she couldn't help but lower her voice when she heard him speak, "What Madam said is not a masterpiece." ” "Yes, yes!
Do you have this?
” The shopkeeper paced and thought, they generally can't afford this kind of small shop....
However, his family ancestral bookstore, as a family heirloom, really seems to have one.
It's just that the chess game is an elegant thing, there is no price, no one cares, he has long used it as a footstool, he has to go back to find it to confirm, in case there is a defect, it will be difficult to sell.
"Madam, I have a copy at home, or you will come back tomorrow, and I will go back and see before replying to you."
Chu Rao looked at the sky outside, and she had walked a lot today, and Ziyan and her were also very tired.
"Okay, I'll come back tomorrow."
Zhuo Wei was waiting outside the shop, he caught a glimpse of a woman's voice in his spare eye, cowered behind the wall and peeked, just wanted to step forward to catch it, just at this time Chu Rao and Ziyan walked out, it was inevitable that the tiger was diverted from the mountain, Zhuo Wei finally escorted Chu Rao into the carriage with only two more looks.
As he expected, the woman did not follow, Zhuo Wei thought, didn't he come for his wife, he was wrong?
...
In the bookstore on the other side, after the two left, before the shopkeeper could sit down and rest, a woman in a red shirt stepped through the door.
"I'll ask you, shopkeeper, what did the woman buy from you just now?"
Redsleeves asked bluntly.
"Why should I tell you?"
"That's it, don't you say it?"
Several full money bags were thrown on the table, and the shopkeeper's original frown suddenly turned into a smile, and he pushed the money bags to his side, "Oh."
The lady I want to buy a good chess book, but I don't have it for the time being, so I'm going to go home and look for it. ” Red Sleeves pondered for a moment, turned around and walked out to the carriage around the corner, her strategy for Changle was to buy it according to what Chu Rao sent, but the chess game, the princess didn't send it, but the Hou Ye returned it without looking at it, is it still useful for them to send it this time.
"Back to the princess, what Chu Rao wants to buy is a chess game."
"Hmph, it's just the rest of the things sent by the palace."
Changle's eyes flickered, and a plan flashed in his mind, "Red Sleeves, you go and tell the store something." ” Red Sleeves stepped forward, and Changle whispered a few words in her ear.
"Yes, Princess." *** The next day, Chu Rao excitedly took Zhuo Wei to go again, and the shopkeeper of the bookstore was full of smiles.
"I'm looking for this lady, you see."
The shopkeeper opened the cloth bag, and a worn-out but well-preserved ancient book was presented on a red cloth.

Chu Rao looked like it was indeed a masterpiece, but she was not familiar with the chess game, so she pretended to say, "Shopkeeper, you won't fool me." ” "How dare I?"
When the shopkeeper said this, he was still a little uneasy in his heart.
This chess book is actually not his, his heirloom went back last night to look at it, and it was all grinding and couldn't read clearly, how could he take it out and sell it.
Fortunately, the girl in red stuffed him with a copy, and didn't want him to pay for it, and it turned out to be a genuine one.
This kind of thing that makes money from two families without having to bother, he really has no ability to refuse.
Chu Rao looked at the book cover carefully, and it looked really good.
"How much silver?"
The shopkeeper counted according to the requirements of the red sleeves, although Chu Rao was in pain, she could afford it, and she reluctantly poured all the silver in her bag.
Back in the car, she still felt uneasy, "Zhuo Wei, can you help send a letter to my brother, I want to ask him about something." ” "How many days will Madame come and go?"
Chu Rao folded her hands and calculated, "Five days, can you get a reply in five days." ” Zhuo Wei thought about it, the dark line in Liuzhou, five days should be in time, "Yes." ” "Okay."
Chu Rao is going to send the letter and chess game to Chu Sui, so that the teachers of Yuelin Academy can see if this book is authentic, if not, she will come back to theorize, and she also has time to find alternatives, if so, then she will not spend the money unjustly. ...
When Chu Rao returned to the house, dinner had not yet been used, and as soon as she entered the side hall, Qi Su was reading a book and waiting for her.
He sat sideways at the table, dressed in a honey-colored bright silk face, straight, elegant and noble, the hem of the robe was embroidered with lines, and the green jade belt was tied around the body, outlining the figure of the body.
The crow's hair is lingering, and the delicate jade-like side face is reflected in the candle flame, and the straight nose bridge leaves a small shadow, and the outline is deep.
At the wrist where he was holding the book, the sleeve robe was loosely rolled up, and the knuckles of his fingertips were against the back cover, and he could see the slightly raised veins and green tendons under the skin, Chu Rao was a little hot for some reason.
She walked over slowly, reflecting on her recent thoughts.
Qi Su looked at the blushing Chu Rao in confusion, "What's wrong with you." ” "Hot!
I walked around the area today, and it was hot..."
Qi Su retracted his gaze, "Hmm." ” "Have you waited for me for a long time, in fact, you can eat first."
Before going out early in the morning, Chu Rao told Qi Su that she didn't have to wait for her to come back, but she didn't expect him to be there, and Chu Rao was a little moved.
"Soon, I'll not be hungry either." “.....”
Chu Rao sat down in a daze, she was very hungry, and when she finished using the handkerchief that Ziyan handed over, she took the chopsticks and began to feast.
"What did you buy today?"
Qi Su seemed to ask casually when he turned the book.
"Just some rouge gouache or something."
"Well, I'm going out of town tonight."
He's going to Quanzhou tonight.
"Tonight Get out?
How long. ” Qi Su paused for a moment and said, "Fifteenth." ” When Chu Rao heard that it was going to be fifteen days, she couldn't help but chuckle in her heart, and she lost her appetite.
He had to go for so many days as soon as he left, so he couldn't tell her in advance, and if he had known, she wouldn't have gone out all day today.
Chu Rao muffled her head and bit the rice grains silently.
Seeing her like this, Qi Su guessed her thoughts, hesitated and explained: "Old Xu just passed the book today, and he didn't mean to hide it from you. ” "Oh."
That's right.
Chu Rao felt that her appetite had suddenly improved again, "Then you can come back early." ” She added in a low voice, "I'll miss you." ” Qi Su lowered his head and curled the corners of his lips silently, "Okay." ” Accompanied by Chu Rao after eating, Qi Su got up and went out, and when he walked to the door, he looked back at her more, and happened to see the shriveled purse hanging from her waist, and he didn't stop for long, so he stepped out of the door. ...
Qi Su is not there, although Chu Rao said that he was reluctant, but he really didn't toss it, and he was good when he fell asleep, after all, it was not easy to sleep until daylight on weekdays.
"Madame, what are you wearing today?"
Purple smoke entered the door with a copper wash.
"Feel free."
Chu Rao said lazily, she doesn't go out, it doesn't matter what she wears.
After Chu Rao finished freshening up, Ziyan opened the wardrobe for her, found a piece of clothing from the wooden cabinet, and suddenly let out a sound, "Huh." ” "How?"
She answered and walked over to the cupboard.
"Madam, how can this shirt be so heavy?"
Ziyan tossed her dress upside down, took it down and looked around, "This is..."
Chu Rao frowned and took a look, the bulging embroidery purse was brightly tied to the waist of the dress, and when it was opened, it was full of cute little gold beads stuffed with solid hearts.
"Madame, there's still one here!"

Hearing this, Chu Rao continued to look through the cabinet, and sure enough, not only this one in her hand, but each of them was hung with the same style of purse.
"It's .....
Childe put it?
Ziyan asked incredulously, is this still the son she and Sijiu are waiting for. “....
Right. ” Chu Rao is shy and sweet, although it is not his style, but who else can he be.
"Oh, the slave knows," Ziyan said with a smile, "it must be that the son couldn't bear to see Madame's poor silver purse." ” "You're still laughing!"
Chu Rao couldn't help laughing out loud after she finished speaking, and took off her purses one by one and carefully moved them to her treasure chest.
How can anyone give money like him, in this case, where is she willing to use it. *** In the carriage, Sijiu suddenly heard a chuckle from inside the carriage.
"Childe, what are you laughing at?"
Qi Su retracted a faint smile, "It's okay." ” He was just guessing that Chu Rao should have found those purses now.
Hey, why did he just leave for one night, he was already thinking about her...
