Chapter 67 Shu Yuxuan

Xiao Ning stepped forward and blocked his dirty hands that were reaching out to Shang Xi.

She bowed and smiled politely: "Ha, I am Xiao San, and my wife and I are going to the city to congratulate my aunt."

The separated guards felt a little unhappy for a moment.

But when he saw Xiao Ning's still authoritative face, he suddenly lost his temper.

The young lady gave out five taels of silver at once.

Both of them are good-looking and have good manners.

Don't tell me he's really a relative of some noble family...

Thinking of this, the guard didn't dare to act rashly anymore. He smiled and respectfully invited the two men into the city.

It was getting late, so after entering the city, the two men first found an inn to stay in.

Shang Xi suggested going to a shop outside to buy two ready-made clothes.

The two of them were now wearing the old linen clothes given to them by Aunt Zhou.

Shang Xi's skin was delicate and had already been rubbed red.

But the conditions in the village were like that, everyone wore linen clothes, so he couldn't be pretentious and could only endure it reluctantly.

Xiao Ning stood up after hearing this and said, "Okay, I'll go with you."

"No, you rest, I can go by myself."

"Yourself?" Xiao Ning asked, "Don't you know what you look like? This isn't Shengjing City. Not only will you not be able to save your reputation here, but you might even bring disaster upon yourself."

Shang Xi: “…”

Thinking of the disgusting look the guard had given him just now, Shang Xi couldn't help rubbing his arms.

"Then let's go together. I can buy you two pieces of clothing."

Xiao Ning glanced at him and asked, "How much money do you have left?"

Shang Xi picked up the purse and weighed it, "About twenty taels."

Xiao Ning: "Then you don't have to buy it for me. I'm used to this dress. The journey to Shengjing is long and there are many places where I need money."

Shang Xi: “…”

It’s not that tight.

When the two of them walked on the street, they attracted a lot of attention.

When I arrived at the ready-made clothing shop, I didn’t see many clothes made of high-quality materials. After all, the goods in the small county town were not complete.

Shang Xi picked and chose, and reluctantly chose two.

Then he said to Xiao Ning, "You can pick two too. Don't worry about the money."

When Xiao Ning heard this, he knew that the princess had a backup plan.

She chose two sets of clothes without hesitation.

This cost more than ten taels.

After going out, Shang Xi asked Xiao Ning to ask for the direction of Hua Street.

?

Xiao Ning thought he had misheard, "What do you want me to find out?"

Shang Xi glanced at her: "Flower Street."

Xiao Ning frowned: "Where are you going?"

Is it because I’ve been widowed for too long and miss men?

"My lady, listen to my advice. You should be more restrained in your life. Lust is like a knife hanging over your head. It will hollow out your body sooner or later."

Xiao Ning advised earnestly.

Are you kidding? What is a princess doing going to that place?

If I get sick, I won’t have anywhere to cry.

Besides, the princess is always enthusiastic and she will definitely not just care about her own happiness and will definitely invite her to join in the fun.

She is a good girl who keeps herself clean.

I don't want to go to that kind of place.

Shang Xi: “…”

Doesn't he look like a sex-hungry ghost?

He looked at Xiao Ning with a speechless expression: "I have something important to do."

What serious business could one have in going to Flower Street?

Xiao Ning looked unconvinced.

"Go quickly!"

Shang Xi punched her on the shoulder.

If it weren't for his status as a woman making it difficult for him to ask, would she still need to ask?

"Well……"

Under Shang Xi's gaze, Xiao Ning rubbed his shoulders and went to ask someone nearby.

Xiao Ning spotted a small vendor.

Seeing that she is at the age when she is lustful, she must have been to that kind of place.

"Young man, please tell me how to get to Flower Street?"

The street vendor had just noticed Xiao Ning and the other guy, because they were so good-looking that they stood out like a crane among chickens on the dusty street.

Hearing Xiao Ning's question, he frowned and looked disapproving.

"I'm not saying anything, little brother, you...your wife is so beautiful, why do you still want to go to that kind of place?"

Xiao Ning: “…”

Brother, what I mean is, is there a possibility that my wife is going to that kind of place?

"Ha..." Xiao Ning scratched his face and smiled awkwardly: "Oh man, such delicious food, you'll get tired of it if you keep eating it."

That's true.

The vendor understood, and his expression turned lewd. He raised his chin in one direction and said, "Look, over there!"

After saying that, he glanced towards Shang Xi again.

"Little brother, you are really brave. You came out with your wife and dared to ask about that kind of place so blatantly. Aren't you afraid that your wife will hear and go back to make trouble with you?"

Xiao Ning snorted and laughed: "She won't make trouble with me!"

Because he was the one who wanted to go to Flower Street!

Maybe he would have to ask her to help him watch the gate later.

Xiao Ning felt that what her husband did was really...tsk, nothing to say.

Whoever marries her will enjoy great happiness!

"Thanks, bro."

Xiao Ning waved to the vendor and walked towards Shang Xi.

She tilted her head towards Shang Xi and said, "Come on, my lady, I'll take you to the Flower Street right now."

Shang Xi: "...then why don't you lead the way quickly."

"Let's go now, why are you rushing me? Are you in such a hurry..."

Another punch to the shoulder.

Xiao Ning frowned: "What!"

Shang Xi smiled slightly and raised her hand to smooth the clothes off Xiao Ning's shoulders: "My husband's clothes are dirty, let me help you pat them."

Xiao Ning: "...Thank you, I can still tell the difference between a fist and a slap."

The two came to Flower Street.

The sweet scent of powder can be smelled from a long distance away.

It was of inferior quality, and Xiao Ning sneezed several times when he smelled it.

Shang Xi raised his sleeve to cover his nose.

The two came to a restaurant called "Shuyuxuan" and stopped.

The eaves are decorated with green tiles and flying glazed tiles, which are strung together like tassels and hang down from the corners of the eaves. When the wind blows, they make a tinkling sound, which is very pleasant to the ear.

Xiao Ning sighed and said, "I didn't expect there is such a place in this small county."

The beautiful woman soliciting business at the door saw the two of them and said in surprise: "You two..."

Xiao Ning: "Uh...I'm bringing my wife here to see the world?"

This is the first time I see a husband bringing his wife to a place like this.

The beauty was startled when she heard this, then she covered her lips and chuckled: "Then you two, please come in..."

The beauty led the two men into the restaurant.

"There don't seem to be any men in your building..."

Xiao Ning looked around as he walked.

The building is decorated very elegantly. The center of the first floor is arranged like a stage. On the stage, a woman with a veil covering her face is singing a song. The sound of the pipa accompanies her singing, sometimes as soft as silk, sometimes as deep as a spring.

The beauty smiled and said, "Yes, I do. I wonder what kind the customer would like?"

Xiao Ning looked at Shang Xi: "Madam, I want to ask you a question, what kind do you want?"

Shang Xi: “…”

The beauty's standard smile froze, and she glanced at the two of them in surprise, "This young master treats Madam... so well."

He is actually willing to bring his wife to a place like this.

He is also willing to find another man for his wife.

What a strange thing!

"Would you two like to play together or separately?"

Xiao Ning quickly waved his hands, "I don't play, I keep myself clean, she can play."

The beauty covered her lips and chuckled: "Well, Madam, please let me prepare a room for you..."

Shang Xi interrupted her, "A private room will do. Prepare the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone. I need them."
